Fastboot error when flashing firmware update.

[John Constable]

hi, looking for some help. Tried flashing the 1.40 firmware and i get an error message. I am s-off with root and bootloader unlocked. error message i get is this.

C:\Users\JON\Desktop\fastboot>fastboot flash Firmware M9_1.40.401.5_NoWipe_NoRed
.zip
sending 'Firmware' (46476 KB)...
OKAY [ 3.275s]
writing 'Firmware'...
(bootloader) HOSD CL#506785
FAILED (remote: 35: SD_PARTITION_NOT_SUPPORT Firmware)
finished. total time: 4.285s


I have removed my sdcard and get the same issue. i presume the sd patition it has the error with is the internal sd. been going round in circles for the past 3 days trying to trouble shoot this error. but get no where. Any help with the error will be appreciated.

Are you sure the ROM you're flashing is for your model M9? (I'm not familiar with the M9, but most phones come in at least a couple of different model numbers.)

It's not the rom I am trying to flash. It is the firmware I am trying to update to the latest to match the rom update I want to use.
