does it let you run the wipe via adb? Are you trying to wipe the dalvik in recovery? What error message are you getting?

Honestly I don't know that one I get it (md5 error) when I do updates through zenupdater after I do a couple updates but after I wipe my sdcard I don't get it
Try this to wipe your cache: adb shell reboot oem-78
fastboot getvar boot-mode
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot

Problem with TWRP

Anyone know what Updating Partition details means in TWRP? It won't let me flash anything....it just says failed and has updating partition details at the bottom ....... I restarted the phone and it still says it when I go back in to TWRP. Any ideas on how to fix this so I can flash again?

[Q] Soft bricked my htc one

So yesterday, I tried installing a custom rom and what happened was that the MD5 sum was incorrect and i wasn't able to boot into system and had no backups so was stuck thinking that it was the end of the world.
What happened next was utter follishness in which I used this command in bootloader -fastboot flash zip rom.zip- what happened then was that the rom was transferred but it tried to install it and failed and a consequence now I cant even reboot into recovery now. It,s like when I start recovery it skips that and progresses to the htc logo.
I relocked the device and unlocked it via the Unlock token I had and again tried to install the recovery and it did but didn't reload into it and skipped to the htc logo screen.
Can anyone please help me with recovering my phone since I just bought it today.
One possible thing that comes to my mind is using the flash command in the fastboot, will it help or any other ways? THANK YOU in advance...
You can adb sideload still. Use adb to reboot into recovery via USB and sideload a known good ROM with a correct MD5 sig. No need to remind you that checking the MD5 is of utmost importance

I'm gonna try this and will report back! Thanks
I was able to enter the recovery but I try to install the rom.zip it says that cannot mount data and internal storage
What should be done about this?
With an error like: E:/ enable to mount internal storage?

yup with both internal storage and data, its not able to mount either of them
So:
- Flash the stock recovery
- Boot into bootloader
- Do a factory reset
- Reflash a custom recovery
- Teoritecally, this will work
Man, it's finally working. Feeling like hitting the thanks button a thousand times. Thank you so much!

[SOLVED] [Q] HTC One only bootloader and recovery works

Last night tried installing SkyDragon v.9. It installed, the phone booted into rom and then started rebooting. Now i cant flash any rom because the phone reboots on the stage of wiping something. I installed newer twrp 2.8.0.2. Now i have these erros: unable to mount data and unable to mount internal storage. I'm S-ON unlocked. Tried ADB Sideload but it says device not found. Have no idea what to do. Saw somewhere that you can relock, unlock and install RUU to unbrick, but im not sure if i should do that. Help please.
OK. So... Try this:
From recovery go into Advanced Wipe, select all and wipe 2 or 3 times.
Reboot into bootloader.
In fastboot mode, make fastboot erase cache.
Then boot into recovery, and try ADB Sideload again or install rom via USB OTG (if you have)
If it also doesn't work try sth like this - it worked for me some time ago.
I saw that my PC recognizes my phone as normal storage when it's booted into TWRP and I don't need ADB Sideload. Try copy ROM like this and install.
If it won't work, you'll have to install RUU

It didn't work Which RUU should i choose? M7-UL, hboot-1.55.0000, radio-4a.21.3263.04. I live in russia so i suppose i need one with "europe" in it's name? And how should i re-lock? Just by using fastboot command?

If it reboots immediately when you try to wipe or flash something (i.e instant black screen then reboot)
You can probably fix it with e2fsck.
Boot to recovery select Mount then unmount all partitions return to twrp home screen and connect usb and check adb is working with
Code:
adb devices
You should get an output of your serial no.
Then do this
Code:
adb shell
e2fsck -fvy /dev/block/mmcblk0p35
e2fsck -fvy /dev/block/mmcblk0p36
e2fsck -fvy /dev/block/mmcblk0p37
exit
Now try to flash the Rom again

If you found my posts helpful, Please click thanks :good:
After i installed twrp 2.8.0.2 i can wipe. Well, sometimes it does wipe but sometimes it just writes error: unable to mount data and unable to mount internal storage. When i try flashing rom, for example viperone 7.0.1, it writes "set_perm some changes failed" right at the 0%. I tried installing cyanogenmod 11s and it installed without errors. But when i boot into rom, it says something like "the process android ui crashed".

check the Frequently Asked Question sticky page 3
Point D, relates to unable to mount
Point C, relates to permission errors for certain ROMs, 2.6.3.3 should work or 2.8.0.1;
2.8.0.2 is known to have problems with certain ROMs

Dude, you are a wizard! Installed 2.6.3.3 and flashed viper without any problems. Yay it's working :laugh: . Couldn't think that recovery can cause these errors. I've been using 2.7.1.1 for quite a long time so i thought it'll work like it always did, but it just kept rebooting on wiping stage. So now it's working prefectly fine :good: Spent 5 hours today looking for sloutions and i have no idea how i missed your post on the faq thread. Thank you very much for your help!

no problem,
2.6.3.3 is best for most ROMs, unless they require a recovery with "by-name" support (such as CM11), then you need 2.7.0.8 or higher
i've also successfully flashed using 2.8.0.1, but .2 seems to have issues again.
and if all is good now, can you also edit main thread title to include [SOLVED], thanks

So I'm guessing your stuck in the bootloader. This should be a fairly easy fix. I'm not available for Skype at the moment but as I say should be an easy fix.So lets get some prerequisite's out of the way first.
Do you have access to a pc with working adb/fastboot?
I see the bootloader is unlocked, is it running a custom recovery and if so which one (name and version please)

Once your up and running if you want to go back to stock you can use this Nandroid Backup http://www.htc1guru.com/2013/11/stock-backup-3-23-666-1/
Alternatively you could use it instead of the Rom in my other post but the push is a little more complicated. Where as once the device e is booting you can just drop the nandroid in the correct folder using MTP on your pc.

Your device has an Internal Sd card. But that stock zip I'd not a Rom, you can't flash it like a Rom. It a Nandroid Backup so it needs to be restored using TWRP.
You need to get TWRP to flash, try updating your your adb/fastboot. You can check your current version by typing
Code:
adb version
In the command window. Latest is 1.0.31 :good:

what recovery version are you trying to flash and what is your MD5 on the recovery?

All Content Wiped

Ive been using a custom rom for some time all working fine, today I thought Id try another so I booted to recovery, full wiped and flashed another rom & gapps package.
It seemed to install and TWRP promted to reboot system which I did.
Now the problem begins, it only booted to the black google screen. I hard reset to get into recovery and everything had gone including internal storage.
I was able to push my rom and gapps zips to data but when I try to install TWRP throws up errors about unable to mount storage data etc...
I tried flashing latest TWRP and erasing cache, but still same problem.
So I have no idea how to turn this paperweight back into a phone!

fastboot format cache
fastboot format userdata
