[Q] Need Help

Apparently i am not very good at this whole unlocking/ rooting thing -.-
I tried to update my phone to the latest firmware but ended up formating everything on my phone
Now its stuck only booting into recovery mode and boot loader mode
Windows will not show the device as a storage device so i cant add another rom to the sd card and install it from there
Anyone know what to do?
Edit: Computer managment shows android USB Device and My HTC but will not show up in with drive letters
Are you in recovery?
If yes, adb recognize the phone?
Because you can use the sideload or push a rom into the sdcard.

[Q] My phone halfway bricked. Cannot boot and recovery.

I have tried to flash a rom (Android Revolution HD 53.0) for my One. And after I finished flashing, it asked me if I would like to fix root. I pressed yes.
Then the phone go stuck between the boot screen and the recovery screen. It cannot enter the recovery mode (It got a flash of the clockworkmod, but it seems likes some error occurs). And now, I put my phone into Fastboot mode and plug it to my computer. The phone has turned "FASTBOOT USB" but when a use a fastboot command, it says "waiting for device" for a century...
And when my open up the "device manager" on my computer, it can recongnize "my HTC" but it's marked as an unrecongnized device.
I'm using Windows 8.1 on the Lenovo y510p, I think the Win 8.1 is the problem causing this...
I have tried to install the Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller Driver as mentioned here, but my USB then goes out of function.
Also, the fastboot won't work even though I manually install the HTC Driver from the device manager.
I have got HTC Sync, ADB and fastboot all installed on the computer. Still got no luck.
Anyway to solve this?

What is your bootloader version? What recovery are you using and what version?
in the meantime I suggest you to use Windows 7 or boot a live ubuntu 12.04 32 bits version cd or bootable flash drive and use fastboot from there.

Your Phone is broken send it to HTC or take it to a repair shop

HELP! Accidentally wiped OS, USB not recognized

I was gonna flash and prior to doing so I accidentally wiped internal memory. When trying to reboot I received a message in TWRP saying no ROM found. Phones does not boot since the OS was wiped.
I'm able to get back into recovery but there is no ROM to flash and Unfortunately there's no memory card slot on the phone. If there was I could have transfer a ROM over to sd card and installed it.
I've tried installing from a RUU file using a windows 7 laptop but I get an error message 170 USB not connected. I'm not sure why its not recognizing my phone. I have htc drivers installed. I have also unistalled the htc drivers, rebooted laptop and installed drivers again with no luck. I have also tried ADB side load in TWRP but adb is not recognizing device, Im unable to push a rom. I just do not get why it is not recognizint my htc one. I'm able to charge it so I assume the usb port on the device is not the issue. Strange, My other devices get recognized through usb.
Any suggestions on what I can do to install a ROM or get my laptop to recognize my phone? The last 2 days I have done reasearch without any luck, I hope someone here can help. If only if this phone had a SD slot, then this wouldn't be an issue as I'm able to get into recovery.
You can use adb to push the ROM to /sdcard/ while in recovery and you should be able to install it from there.

i also had the exact same problem with my sprint htc one... while installing an RUU my laptop showed an error that device is not connected (it was running windows 8.1 x64 i think that was the problem) then i disconnected and connected the phone again it showed "USB device not recognised" and even fastboot could not detect the phone ....
when i switch on the phone it would go straight to TWRP... i tried adb push and flashing through USB-OTG cable with no luck..
but when i connected my phone to my friend's desktop running windows 8 x86... it did not show up in my computer but fastboot detected it and i was able to flash this RUU http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=22926241640219526 ... and now my phone is up and running...
now first try USB-OTG method, if it fails try flashing RUU.zip from other computer it might get detected...
:good:

Phone not detected

Hello,
I was on 10.0.7 version, rooted with magisk.
I had error while installing 10.0.8 version, then I downloaded 10.0.7 full rom, and used flash_all_except_data.bat.
Then after rebooting, it runs infinitely on loading animation (colors bar).
When I enter in fastboot, fastboot logo is displayed, but pc doesn't recognize phone anymore (fastboot devices show nothing).
[UPDATE]
I managed to boot with wiping data from recovery (Xiaomi stock recovery).
Now I can use the phone, but I don't have wifi (maybe something messed with vendor).
And I can't flash it because it is not recognized in fastboot mode (tried 3 W10 PCs, and 1 W7, it doesn't show in device manager)...
Can you help me ?
This is because the phone presents different device identifiers to the computer in these modes, and different drivers are needed, so it is possible to have proper drivers installed for one mode, but not the other. The fastboot program is simple and will just show the < waiting for device > message forever if drivers are missing. However, the same message may appear if the drivers are installed correctly, but the phone is not in the proper state with fastboot device IDs.
Make sure you aren't using a USB 3.0 port. Trying changing ports. The USB cable might also be the problem.
try using a direct usb 2.0 port on the pc ....
Otherwise reboot everything , erase cache first ?
Fastboot erase cache
or
Keep the phone connected and reboot the recovery , the led should come on then.
Keep the phone connected in the bootloader and reboot the pc.
If the problem still exists the let me know
What's the exact error ? Waiting for device
When the phone is in the bootloader is it recognized as fastboot usb (in red text) and what does the device manager in windows say about a android phone ?

In fastboot mode nothing shows in device manager, with 3 different cables, with 4 different computers (3x W10, 1xW7).
I tried connecting with a live cd of CentOS.
Same results, adb connect when phone is started, but when I go in fastboot mode nothings shows in lsusb or dmesg...
Looks like the phone doesn't connect to pc in fastboot, very very strange...
