I'm having problems accesing the hboot menu. It all started after I flashed a stock rooted ICS ROM (this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583028). I flashed the kernel manually as I always do, then flashed the zip. Everything was going fine, I uninstalled the bloatware using root explorer and the phone runs smooth.
Then I tried to install a camera mod,and I needed to access hboot, I proceed to turn off the phone and then power+vol down... I press those buttons for almost 1 minute and nothing happens, when I let go the power button the phone turns on again (as it should) but without accesing the hboot.
Is there any other way to access the hboot?
Thanks
Try pulling the battery put it back in then do the volume+ power or try quick boot from the market

Or use ADB commands to reboot into it.
I believe it's something like adb reboot bootloader.

Instead of doing the usual VOLDOWN + PWR and then waiting a couple minutes to get into the bootloader and selecting recovery, is there any button combination to boot directly to recovery?
i have AMON-RA 2.2.1 if that makes any difference
Nope.
Couple of min? It's 2 sec to bootloader, and another 10-15 sec to recovery.
If you're rooted use Quickboot

Rom manager, a number of roms also come with 4way reboot mod which gives us the option to reboot to recovery on press of the power button
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
pretty much rom manager is the way I do it.. There should be a way to do it like you say op
You could go with a rom manager. I know CWM does it. Also if you don't mind you can use the cable and adb (assuming you have the sdk-tools) from your computer.

Hello, I recently had the xposed framework on my rooted (but on stock rom) HTC one. I removed the framework, but when I restarted my phone, it got stuck at the logo screen and will not enter recovery from power + vol down, nor restart. What can I do to break out of this? It is not a cycle where the phone keeps booting, rather in just stays in one state.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: When I hold the power + vol down keys, the back and home lights flash but nothing happens

Wha...how...I have no idea why this works, but it does, that's amazing!
However, it still freezes when i reboot. What do you suggest? Reflash the stock rom? I've read some thread that say an "erase cache" via ADB is necessary?
Reflash stock rom. If you removed framework, then it wont boot

Thank you both very much! Just wanted to say after sideloading the rom in TWRP everything is running okay!
Please help,
I was screwing around in TWRP and instead of doing a normal factory reset I ticked system as well... Instead of reading the clear message of no OS i decided to reboot into OS and now stuck on HTC logo screen with no way to go into TWRP, recovery or any other mode.
ADB doesn't list the device, Power button doesn't shut off screen or device
Please help me out as I have no idea how to restore it to any workable state.

How long are you holding them? Also, try holding down power with the phone under a bright light.

About 10 seconds which is what it normally would take to go into recovery.
This is room is always brightly lit so no effect

That is not long enough my friend. In your situation, it can take a minute or two, and even normally it's more like 15 seconds.
Keep power button pressed - You should see the back and home buttons blink and you should be able to get into hboot

I see the buttons blink but what else do i need to do to get into hboot? Does it need to be connected to PC? And how long after blinking starts should I hold? Tried with volume down to no success before
Try holding the proximity sensor directly under a bright light. Just being in a lit room isn't always enough. Hold volume down and power till the home and back start flashing. Do not let go until the phone is off. Now let go. Hold both buttons again until you see the bootloader.

Boot into recovery.
Download a ROM on pc.
Put ROM in adb/fastboot folder.
Connect phone to PC.
Open a command prompt in the folder ( hold shift and right click - open command prompt here).
"adb devices"
It should list your phone.
"adb push your-rom-here.zip /sdcard/"
It'll look like its not doing anything for a while, be patient it can take some time.
When it's done, us twrp to flash the ROM like normal.

RESOLVED
Silver HTC One for AT&T; bootloader unlocked, rooted, s-on
I tried to flash a 4.1.2 ROM on the phone earlier today through CWM. No errors were given during the process. After the phone restarted the touch screen is now disabled. All three hardware keys seem to be working fine (power, v-up, v-down). Since the touchscreen is not working I cannot get past the initial lock screen. If I try and restart the phone by holding power it takes a long time >5 minutes of holding down power, "To restart your phone continue to press and hold power for 3, 2, 1, comes up and then stays at 1 for a long time.
If I connect the phone to my mac android file transfer opens up and I can see the files on the phone. However, if I try to find the device using 'adb devices' the list of attached devices is empty.
I would like to put a different ROM on and then flash that but because I am unable to do a power down (only restart after a long time) or use adb to re-boot into fastboot or recovery I am stuck.
Anything you guys could give me to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
also I installed HTC sync manager and it launches after the device is attached, but does not indicate that my device is attached.
Thanks!
You need a 4.3 based ROM. Push via ADB and install via cwm or adb sideload

But wouldnt I need adb to recognize my device? At the moment I cannot even get it to show up in devices when it is connected.

Just copy the 4.3 rom via the file manager, then restart with however long it takes. While restarting, keep the vol-down button pressed. You'll reboot to bootloader. From there, go to recovery and select your 4.3 rom.

Can you elaborate on the OTG cable? It may be my best option at the moment because I cannot get the phone to reboot at all let alone into recovery. I tried to restart while holding down power and vol-down (like n1234d said) for about 20 minutes and the phone did not restart.
You could use an OTG cable and a USB drive to get the ROM onto the phone inside recovery. Unfortunately, you still need to reboot to recovery. If the phone can't reboot, I'm not sure what to do.

Just hold the power button and power it off....
then try to get in recovery from bootloader....
the phone wont get recognized via adb if not in recovery mode cause the USB debugging would be turned off....
the phone WILL power off if you keep the power button pressed for 20-30 seconds and should reboot.

Thanks for you suggestions, as I mentioned above I got the phone to reboot into recovery after holding down power for an insanely long time. From there I was able to use adb to get everything sorted out.
So my problem is resolved, how do I close/delete this thread? Thanks for all your suggestions.

I'm pretty sure you unknowingly kept leaving the power/volume buttons because of which the phone finally rebooted when you got it right
