Need help fixing my phone, stuck on htc screen.

Well after installing few games and reflashing my recovery after accidentally putting an older version on, I somehow in turn corrupted my boot loader, system files, data etc, so much so that my backups would boot once but never a second time, clearing my cache and dalvik only made it stuck on htc screen and afterwards it just repeatedly booted into clockwork over and over. This all happening after trying to also make a new nand backup where it hung at system for 30 minutes only to eat up my battery from 100 to 10.
it does charge, I tried using the buttons to boot into fastboot and hboot but it doesn't seem to work, but fastboot usb comes up with I turn it on while connected to the computer but sadly I keep getting error 171 when I try to RUU it.

Have you tried the ruu in zip format??? .

If your not s-off flash darch's eng/spl. Then try the ruu in zip format. Look in hero dev section for darchs method. I posted a working zip on that thread.

I called sprint and was told since I have had the phone for less than a year I can get a free one from htc just need to go to sprint and let them fiddle with it, if they can fix it then it's a free repair if they can't its a free replacement, I am supposing no traces of rooting can even be seen the phone literally has nothing on it, it nuked itself while I went to take a leak, left it on updating 10 applications, backing up the others and flashing my cw3 recovery, after that it was acting up, kept booting to recovery than after flashing things and formatting it nuked everything else recovery and all.

Well, maybe you have a brick. Cool you have the warranty. And if xda can't find a way to fix it, sprint almost surely cannot, lol. I would say get the new one sent to you, that way when you send the old one back it will be too late for them to tell at you - IF they figure it out.

Yeah, I may not post alot but that's due to college and church, otherwise I would be making guides and helping out in Q&A instead of asking for it now haha, I tried so many things and nothing worked so I concluded a brick, sadly I'll never know why my phone randomly nuked itself, I didn't do anything I normally don't was so odd.
Update: they couldn't fix it so they are sending me a new phone.

[Q] HTC Raider in Boot Loop

Hey guys I'm new to androids and made a stupid mistake flashing a rom I shouldn't have and now my phone won't boot, it just keeps looping to HTC screen, I'm able to get to the bootloader but I haven't been able to find anything on how I recover the phone back to it's default rom. Can someone please help out, I'm without a phone until this gets fixed.

Did you make a nandroid before flashing the rom?
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium

No, I don't believe so

Well if you are able to get into bootloader that should mean you can get to recovery?
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium

Yeah I can get to the bootloader and recovery is there but that doesn't seem to work. I tried to install the rom for the rogers raider found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1338919 , but that program errors out and the error code seems to suggest its the wrong rom.
I'm new to this and don't know what to do

I would say try running the ruu that bananacakes posted. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1337036
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium

Thanks I'll try that out, takes forever to download. Just to make sure, I should be connecting the phone through fastboot and then running the program? I wanna make sure I'm doing things the right way.

So that other link you sent me doesn't work just errors right away saying its the wrong rom. I tried the rogers one again and it errors out again, when I unplug the usb from the phone the screen on the phone reads
RUU
Security fail!
Update fail!
And then I saw that it looks like I don't have a full root as it says S-ON.
Could this be the problem because I don't have full permission. What can I do, I feel like I'm stuck in limbo here. If this is the issue would I be able get S-OFF in the state the phones is in and if not is there another work around to restore the phone?

Are you running the ruu on your computer? Because its not meant to be flashed thru recovery.

ok. we need to recap everything in pretty good detail to see what we can try next.
what recovery did you initially flash on your phone?
what rom did you try to flash?
you now have the correct recovery on your phone?
RUUs all fail with what error exactly?

Unfortunately I don't remember the name of the rom, I'm pretty sure it was for HTC Evo from rom manager.
I had put that CWM recovery 5.0.2.7 from bananacakes that's used to root the phone, but it's now back to the original after I flashed the file you game me. But I originally rooted my phone with that one click method found here http://androidcommunity.com/htc-amaze-4g-gets-permanent-one-click-root-20111020/
I've tried every RUU except the Cingular file and they've all had the same Error 155, saying that it's the wrong rom.

wow. so you flashed a CDMA rom on your GSM phone.....can you please try to remember the name of the rom so we can find out what all it changed?
from everything i am reading, you need a goldcard and that PH39IMG.zip file i gave you
do you think you could make a gold card? do you have a spare phone and an sdcard?
http://android.modaco.com/topic/305672-creating-a-goldcard/

If I could see a list of them maybe I could remember which one but without that no. I Have an iphone 3g and an sd card but that wont help heh

I could possibly get a friend to make me a gold card with his phone, what would the process be after making a gold card?

Hey PG I finally was able to make a Gold card, so I don't want to do anything wrong here. Am I putting that image you gave me on the gold card or am I using fastboot with the gold card in?

either way should work

I tried both and the same errors seem to come up. When I put it on the gold card it tried loading it, but it error'd out just like before and I get the same error when trying to flash it using fastboot.

i am running out of ideas here.
you can unzip that zip file, and manually flash most of that on your phone through fastboot, but i dont know if its going to matter.
when you boot to hboot/fastboot, can you verify the version information at the top of the white screen?

[Q] RESOLVED!!! Help with rooting ICS

My apologies if someone has already posted this, but i couldn'f find a post that was able to help me.
I had my HTC vivid rooted before updating to ics.
I relocked the bootloader and updated using the ruu.
After the update i unlocked the bootloader and needed some help rooting again.
I tired using the vivid all in one kit(thinking that would be the fastest) from the forum but that just made my phone freeze on the white htc screen.
i just "reinstalled" ics because that was the only way to get my phone to work again (phone works fine now)
So the question- How do i properly root my phone running ics

Someone correct if wrong. I dont think that tool will be compatible with ics. I to have updated to ics and I havent seen a post yet for an easy way to root or re root after upgrading to ics. I hope someone can find a flaw and bring back the one click root, like way back on the incredible with unrevoked.com. plug n click your phone boom all automated.

The easiest way is to use wild child's recovery.

Here is his site. You will have to register but he gives instructions and even a video on how to set it up.

He also provides awesome roms. Just read everything before you do anything!

uh? i dont see the vivid on his site? unless im missing something... whatever happened to just using cwm

You have to register first for the Vivid section to show up.

just got cwm on the phone hope this is helpful to someone else
dl recovery-cwm-vivid-5.5.0.4b2.img (got mine from the vivid all in one)
do the same you would if you were unlocking bootloader
instead of typing the "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin)
type "fastboot flash recovery recovery-cwm-vivid-5.5.0.4b2.img"
obviously files have to be in the correct area mine are all under c:\
hopefully that helps someone

It is basically the same idea but it is called touch recovery. It also works with gb and ics. Just like poster above said, you have to register to see the vivid section. Just read everything on the process and you will have recovery in no time!

I think it installs root when you install the recovery. You should see superuser when you boot back up after installation.

No go, no superuser and no root either. tried using titan backup as a tester it says i dont have permissions

I guess I had perm root. Did you look in the dev section and try the root file there?
It's in the superguide.

It has a root file there you can apply in cwm.

Glad I could help you! Just be careful with updating apps from tb. Try to avoid bringing data from gb to ics because it can cause problems. I would just install apps, you can try apps + data but sometimes it messes with things.

RESOLVED!!!!!
here's how i re-rooted my phone after ics ruu update
Unlock the bootloader following htcdev
dl recovery-cwm-vivid-5.5.0.4b2.img got mine from the vivid all in one tool (located inside the data folder, im sure you can find the file on this forum but i happened to have the all in one tool)
do the same steps you would if you were unlocking bootloader
instead of typing in cmd "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin"
type "fastboot flash recovery recovery-cwm-vivid-5.5.0.4b2.img"
that will get cwm onto your phone
Next follow this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416836
skip down to step 2
follow the steps but IGNORE EVERYTHING ABOUT THE PH39IMG.ZIP
just boot into recovery with cwm and install from external sd the vivid_cwm_root ver.2
and voila fin!
this is probably not the most efficient way to do this but this is how i did it
hopefully this is helpful to someone

Major root issues HELP! partial brick?

*First of all, I'm posting here because I haven't had enough posts for the dev section yet..*
So...I've never had any issues rooting and installing ROMs.. not that I've done a TON, but two phones and 3 tablets, so I little ha..
Got my HTC One unlocked and rooted fine with the All-in-one tool, which worked good enough, but when I tried to get a ROM working is when I ran into issues.
I guess I'll tell the main issue first and then explain what happened..
Either only boots to bootloader/fastboot,
OR
Gets stuck on HTC logo and never leaves..
Am I screwed?
What I did that I think effed it...
After getting rooted and running, I tried to install RenovateROM_1.0...kept just randomly stopping and giving an error about "asset failed..." and just booted normally (no ROM)
I googled the hell out of that I tried editing the updater-script like I saw in so many places, and then I screwed up cause it was 3:30am and I was sick of trying.
I was gonna wipe the cache and data before I tried installing again, but I ended up wiping System in there and possibly Dalvik cache as well..
(I know that was stupid now!!!! Feel free to remind me haha..)
And now it's stuck.
If I try install a ROM, it says it completes, but won't boot past fastboot/bootloader.
If I re-flash my TWRP with fastboot, then reboot-bootloader, THEN reboot, it gets the HTC and stays.
Can someone please help me?
Thanks much in advance..
-Shaun

I did that too kinda (wiped everything on accident) Try to ADB sideload the Rom in the advanced options to TWRP otherwise you have to download the RUU and relock the phone up etc. And start over.

Thanks for the reply! Can you possibly link me to a decent tut on how to use RUU? I never have.

AFAIK there are 4 HTC One forums
HTC One
Sprint HTC One
AT&T HTC One
T-Mobile HTC One
You may have flashed a rom for another variant do you have a link I didn't see that rom listed

Your right bigdaddy, shaun you flashed a gsm rom i'm guessing from the unbranded forum.
Download the ruu from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250904
boot your phone into bootloader and make sure your bootloader is in fastboot
extract that ruu file to somewhere you can find easily maybe the desktop
open your command prompt and navigate to your android sdk folder and run this fastboot command
fastboot oem lock
then after you've relocked the bootloader
run the command
fastboot oem rebootRUU
run the setup.exe from the ruu file and let it return you to stock

it also looks like you flashed the renovate rom initial release, That dev is using svn to update nightlies. I'm guessing the "sprint support" is in one of those updates and not the initial release

good deal. Just remember to read everything before flashing. And if your unsure ask. I've had very minimal issues with flashing and changing settings but when I have its been totally my fault for not completely reading an op. if you flash and go back to read a step you've missed its usually too late.

Yeah dude, you're lucky that the international rom you flashed had asserts in it to check device type, or you might've had an actual paperweight on your hands. Stick to the Sprint forums next time.

Yeah I scared myself for sure.. even this morning activating it scared me a little cause normally use the DEC, but it said 'not a valid Sprint ESN', and the HEX
worked great.
Any ideas why that would be?

[Q] Stuck in 4.3, HBOOT 1.55, S-ON, Relocked

I thought that ditching my who-knows-how-old Evo 4G would've saved me from unlocking/rooting/flashing hell but of course not.
The Phone:
Sprint
HTC One
Android - 4.3
S-ON
HBOOT - 1.55
Radio - 1.00.20.0913 (who cares)
Image - 3.04.651.2
All I Really Need:
I need to flash the phone from Sprint to Page Plus. So I need to get it into Diag mode. For that, I need the MSL/SPC.
The Problems:
Revskills and a few other programs + a handful of apps give me all types of errors. I decided to root and use an app that requires root to get the MSL, figuring it would work better. Unlocked my bootloader through HTCDev and attempted to flash a custom rom.
Tried 5 versions of TWRP and try to load recovery - for 4 of them it says loading recovery and then starts the phone as if recovery doesn't exist. TWRP 2.5.0.0 loads up but the touchscreen won't react (I figure that version is too old for my specs.) Both versions of CWM "work" but don't allow access to wherever I'm saving the SuperSU.zip and gives me a list of errors similar to "E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command"
Where I'm At
Just flashed RUU Stock specific to my image. Figured I'd ask before going through that misery again.
Where do you guys suggest I go from here?
I really just need the MSL but root would be awesome to have.
Any and all help (and moral support) is greatly appreciated!

Apologies for the hot-headed response. Super frustrated right now. I'm gonna go through that guide again for now.

No worries. That is how I viewed your response-frustrated. I hope someone can help you out. You might send a message to BD619 if nobody post suggestion. He is extremely knowledgeable and may be of help.

Pm LymeWire and ask nicely if he can get the MSL for you. He got mine no problem.

Is he

Thanks for the recommendation! Is he a Sprint employee who can just pull it from the system?

I had a lovely chat with 4 or 5 of them the other day on chat. Anyway, there was no number on the phone since it was brand new and I'm not activating with Sprint. I got the MSL by doing a ton of hard resets and updating every time the os came back up. So if anyone else has the issue of MSL readers, even MSL Utility, not working, hard reset and keep updating everything your phone lets you update (os, hboot, whatever). Then just run the damn thing again. Thanks for all the help though
