How to download Android 7.0 Nougat for HTC One A9 with 2.17.401.2 version Europe and canada

Taiwanese major โ€˜HTCโ€™ is finally rolling out the long awaitedย Nougat update to the HTC One A9 in Europe. Beforehand, the US unlocked and the Sprint variants of HTC One A9 have received Nougat already. Today, the HTC EMEAโ€™s Product and Service Director- โ€˜Mr.Graham Wheelerโ€™ tweeted via his official twitter account confirming of the Nougat update to the One A9 device. Meanwhile, the rollout is only happening to the European variants starting with Belgium, but we hope a broaderย rollout to Germany, Italy, UK, France etc. The Nougat firmware comes to us as OTA(Over-The-Air) update, and you will receive the same only if you are on the previous stock Marshmallow firmware.

Not latest but the February 1, 2017, security patch level from the AOSP is also bundled.
