my hero cdma can't boot into recovery and can't work only in the normal position after use (fastboot oem boot)
when i power the device and unplug USB cable show me in the screen this lines
Code:
HERO XC SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-1.47.0000 (HERO20000)
MICROP-0110
TOUCH PANEL-SYN0104

RUU
Even when I press volume down + power .. the screen remains black and does not show anything
I tried a lot to work root and flash recovery.img again by (recovery-RA-heroc-v1.6.2.img) .. but every time i enter ((reboot recovery)) does not appear to me anything except previous message ..
my software v2.27.651.5
pardon me because i can't speak english well .. and I ask for your immediate help
Place this on the root of your sdcard. Boot into hboot (fastboot) and press the down volume key, that's hboot mode. It'll find the HERCIMG.zip, which is just the RUU and after it flashes you're phone will be back to stock.

Im having the same exact error
what i did first is that i accessed the recovery mode without knowing and i did the wipe/factory default settings
it brought me to a black screen with only the top slider while that the recovery mode was working
later i installed the ruu software 2.27.651.6 and downloaded it from htc website , at the end of the installing it showed file error cant open
i thought i was just that software (and i didnt download it right) later i tried installing the 1.27 , 1.56 , 2.27.651.5 and the 2.27.651.6 again and it still gave me the same error
after searching on the net i found the command fastboot oem boot which works only with 2.27.651.5 and the 2.27.651.6 version now i cant open my htc hero sprint without this command ,
is there a way to fix it ? please help
It sounds to me like the only way you'll be able to fix your phone is through adb. I'm not sure of the exact steps, but read up on the procedures that have been written up on using adb and you should be able to find what you need. That's all I can think of...

im already familiar to the adb and fastboot commands , tho i dont know the exact steps to fix my problem , because the other steps i found on the net crashes at a point such as flash_image says it cant find the image , and the fastboot flash update.zip says image is not supported

Bummer... well, sorry I don't know what else to tell you at this point. If you follow the steps for putting your phone completely back to stock and it crashes before it completes, then your phone may have a hardware problem. Did you overclock it at all?

Overclocking makes the phone faster, in simple terms. It's risky. I assume that you didn't?

yes never done it before, would the phone be fixed if i did?
No, I only brought it up because overclocking can challenge the hardware and if it overheats then you might run into functional issues. If you didn't overclock then this isn't a factor.
I don't have my main computer handy with all of my browser shortcuts (I've got quite a library from researching rooting, modding, etc), but I know for certain that there are at least 3+ ways to load a new recovery program onto your phone, or get back to a stock ROM even if you brick your phone. You'll have to take the time to search the forums for those earlier guides, the ones before programs were developed to make rooting and flashing ROM's easier (not needing to know much about adb). AndroidForums has quite a few good ones. Check out their FAQ for the HTC Hero.
One other thing... I noticed your bootloader is 1.47. I had issues with that bootloader, with trying to set S-OFF. I had to override with 1.46. You might want to try an earlier bootloader.

If u dont mind can u show me how to install earilier bootloaders ?
Since you can't get your phone fully booted, you won't be able to use ADB. But if you can load the bootloader into Fastboot USB, then use "fastboot". Read up on the Fastboot Wiki and Flash Tutorial. The only caveat is that I've seen two variations on flashing the bootloader using fastboot. Whereas the Wiki I linked shows "fastboot flash boot boot.img", I've also seen "fastboot flash hboot.img" (but I think that may be a typo--certainly it'll let you know).
If you have a ZIP file instead of an IMG file, there will be an "hboot.img" within the ZIP file. I think the fastboot is intelligent enough to know that it needs to be applied to the boot partition. So, you can also do this:
* fastboot oem rebootRUU //Boot into RUU, which lets you flash HBOOT, radio, etc.
* fastboot flash zip [zipname.zip] //Replace zipname.zip with the actual name of the file you are flashing
-- or --
* fastboot flash boot [boot.img]
However, if your current bootloader state is S-ON, you may not be able to execute those commands successfully. I know for myself I had to install ROM Manager to override the hboot 1.47 S-ON that I had installed, which downgraded the hboot. From there I was able to override and flash hboot 1.46 S-OFF.

Hi Guys
I'm in need of urgent help. I rooted my phone and unlocked the bootloader and was going to flash a couple of modded files, one was a more transparent weather widget. Anyways, I somehow ended up with my phone stuck at the "HTC, Quietly Brilliant" screen and it won't boot up. It say's there is no OS installed and I am completely at a loss on what to do because I can't for the life of me understand what RUU I need. I'm in the UK and I bought the phone sim free but none of the resources I've checked seem to be clear. Obviously I am unable to put a ROM on my SDCard as I can't access it so I have no clue how to just get my phone back to stock ... I came from an Xperia Ray where things were so simple. Why isn't there any software from HTC like there is with Sony that lets me reinstallt firmwares? I am at my wits end here with a two day old, £500 phone that I can't even turn on!
PLEASE can someone help me, I know it can be donw but I have no experience with cmd really and there doesn't seem to be any standalone tools to sort it out.
Thanks in advance.

Can you access the hboot screen on boot up and get into recovery?
If you can, try using the all in one toolkit to sideload a ROM.

Cheers for your reply ... Yes I can get into recovery and for further info I follwed a guide on how to install a stock ROM which I downloaded and follwed the re locking of the bootloader which worked but when it comes to installing the firmware.zip file it works but when it gets to the checking bootloader signature part it always fails and says remote 12 signature verify fail, I'm out of my depth here lol This is what I did:
How to flash?
(bootloader needs to be relocked)
Re-lock your bootloader (this will most probably wipe content of your device)
Copy downloaded .zip to fastboot.exe location (e.g. c:/SDK/platform-tools/fastboot.exe)
Re-name .zip file to firmware.zip
Open command prompt
Boot your device in fastboot mode (vol down + power ===> fastboot)
Connect device to the PC
In command prompt cd to fastboot.exe location
Make sure you have correct modeid and cidnum (type: fastboot getvar all)
Type: fastboot oem lock (if your device is not relocked yet)
Type: fastboot oem rebootRUU and wait for device to reboot
Type: fastboot flash zip firmware.zip and wait for process to complete
Sometimes flashing for the first time doesn't work, so flash firmware.zip again just to make sure.
Type: fastboot flash zip firmware.zip and wait for process to complete
Type: fastboot reboot
Unlock your bootloader and flash custom recovery if you are going to use custom ROM.
I followed that but when it gets to step 11 it always comes back with this error message:
sending 'zip' (955862 KB)...
OKAY [ 44.588s]
writing 'zip'...
(bootloader) signature checking...

Decided to take it back to the shop and they just replaced it luckily enough so problem solved ... Thank f**k, I was getting worried and I'd certainly gone past the point of me being able to resolve the issues as even I'd lost track of what I'd done lol .. Cheers to redbull123 for even trying to help

if i start up, again, i still get a black screen with silver HTC letters on it

In all honesty, if you can't access the bootloader, you're pretty much f**ked :/
Your last hope is recovery and trying blackrose tool there

oh well, F*** then cuz i cant Access bootloader properly to choose recovery from it
i m going to try few more things,
1. do it via sdcard and fllash it
2. remove radio.img from the OTA and flash it since it gives an error
i can Access bootloader but when i do that, my bootloader shows me
***BlackRose***
some information...
and then it shows in orange "RUU"
i cant Access anthing from it and when i plug charger back in it goes into RUU mode
i know what my problem is, but i cant find any solutions, "fastboot oem lock" is an unrecognised command... does it have to do with something about htcdev.com?

Hello, I've been raking up the other xda posts all night and can't seem to find the right solution for my situation. Am a total noob so would really appreciate any instructions, whether to solve the problem or to point me to the right post. Quite lost here.
So, I've been trying to return my HTC one to stock (hk version; CID: HTC__622; modelid: PN0714000) and got into trouble. I used to have CM 10.2 with TWRP recovery. So I used TWRP to install what I thought was a stock ROM (not sure if I'm using the terms right) My current situation, in gist:
(1) Can only load into bootloader, if reboot normally then I get htc splash screen then black screen. -->Refuses to boot into the operating system!!!!!! All I get is the htc flash screen then the black screen until eternity (or I force reboot it by holding vol down and power button under strong light-- tip I got from these parts)
(2) Bootloader (top of) reads "tampered" (which I'm least concerned with) and "relocked"
(at one point it said "security warning" as well… but then that disappeared-- see below)
(3) I cannot use adb via either my Mac/ Windows, I have downloaded google SDK and updated HTC drivers on both machines-- adb devices command simply does not register my phone
(4) atm I am only communicating to my phone via fastboot commands… of which I know next to nth except what are commonly found in these forums…
(5) My machine is still S-off. Before my troubles, it was hboot 1.54, after messing around with it, it's now 1.55 if that makes any difference.
I desperate need my phone for the working week…. PLEASE HELP!!!
FYI: I'm on a Mac, but I do have access to a Windows machine running Windows 7
What I have done so far:-
(1) So I was trying to get back to stock, right? First thing I did was used HTC1guru's Guru reset. The ROM I installed was actually for the Asia WWE variant.
Anyway, so I installed it, and it worked, to the extent that I could get OTA notifications and downloaded the update. But HTC could not verify it and did not allow me to install the update. Because I wanted the Kitkat update, I looked up the net to see what could be the problem.
(2) The next mistake I made (probably a mistake) was to think that I had to relock the bootloader. So I did that. Now my Bootloader is relocked and I cannot, for the life of me unlock it again (I've tried going through the HTC dev steps and flashing the new Unlock_code.bin again but I can't unlock it)
At this point, the bootloader also read "security warning" under "relocked"
Subsequent to relocking it, I can't get into my operating system anymore. The only 2 outcomes I get on reboot are (1) HTC splash screen followed by black screen; OR (2) bootloader (if I do power + vol down)
(3) As one 'brilliant' idea followed another 'brilliant' idea, I also did the following list of silly and probably mistaken things our of sheer desperation. Throwing the kitchen sink in really. But none of them really worked because they all say sign not verified or sth to that effect-- I honestly am beginning to forget the order in which things unfolded… but if that's relevant, let me know and I'll try to recall more details.
(a) flash a recovery.img (stock, for both Asia WWE and HK version which I found on the web; and also TWRP)
(b) flash boot.img from Asia WWE
(c )tried rumrunner (can't do because adb won't work)
My latest attempt has been flash oem reboot RUU (then used zip of HK version 1.29.708 Rom zip)
and my phone is now stuck at the grey HTC on black background screen one gets after the first reboot RUU command (terminal has not prompted me to enter a second rebootRUU command yet!)
I don't know what to do. I don't even know if I should unplug the phone and redo the rebootRUU thing…
:crying: PLEASE HELP!!!!

I've unplugged the phone, rebooted into bootloader, and made a second attempt to rebootRUU with HKvariant 1.29 zip… still gets stuck after 1st rebootRUU command (i.e. black screen with grey HTC logo)
Please do help,

Hello, I've been raking up the other xda posts all night and can't seem to find the right solution for my situation. Am a total noob so would really appreciate any instructions, whether to solve the problem or to point me to the right post. Quite lost here.
So, I've been trying to return my HTC one to stock (hk version; CID: HTC__622; modelid: PN0714000) and got into trouble. I used to have CM 10.2 with TWRP recovery. So I used TWRP to install what I thought was a stock ROM (not sure if I'm using the terms right) My current situation, in gist:
(1) Can only load into bootloader, if reboot normally then I get htc splash screen then black screen. -->Refuses to boot into the operating system!!!!!! All I get is the htc flash screen then the black screen until eternity (or I force reboot it by holding vol down and power button under strong light-- tip I got from these parts)
(2) Bootloader (top of) reads "tampered" (which I'm least concerned with) and "relocked"
(at one point it said "security warning" as well… but then that disappeared-- see below)
(3) I cannot use adb via either my Mac/ Windows, I have downloaded google SDK and updated HTC drivers on both machines-- adb devices command simply does not register my phone
(4) atm I am only communicating to my phone via fastboot commands… of which I know next to nth except what are commonly found in these forums…
(5) My machine is still S-off. Before my troubles, it was hboot 1.54, after messing around with it, it's now 1.55 if that makes any difference.

Ok...
First flash a recovery(use Case 2):
No Recovery? No Problem
Oh sh*t here we can have several kind of problems Still no problem But let's first download the recovery.
http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
(MD5 hash: 72067AEFB69541D40E8420D7AA46408D)
Case 1 - Normal error with unlocked and s off or s on:
Boot your phone into the fastboot mode
Eat a piece of cheese
Enter this command
Code:
fastboot erase cache
Followed by this command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "C:\path_to_recovery\recovery_name.img"
And enter the recovery and follow the next piece of guide
Case 2 - For some stupid reason you are s off (that's a MUST) and Relocked:
Sorry, you need this recovery:
https://www.mediafire.com/?ni177radvko5xu7 (If it doesn't work, PM me)
(MD5 hash: F2893CDC17C788B2E49AECEA8C02DCB4)
Boot your awesome HTC One into fastboot
Change CID to superCID using this command (make sure you used 8 times a '1')
Code:
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
Enter this command
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Wait until your Pc recognized your phone again and enter this command
Code:
fastboot flash zip "C:\path_to_zip\firmware.zip"
(This may delete all your data)
Happy rebooting with this command
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Enter the recovery and let's unlock the bootloader...
You can unlock your bootloader using these commands(thanks @scotty1223 for your thread!):
[how to] lock/unlock your bootloader without htcdev(s-off required)
If this doesn't work in recovery because you get superSU or permission errors, use this tool here instead:
http://www.htc1guru.com/guides/guru-bootloader-reset/
You can simply push the ZIP file to your HTC One using one of these commands:
Code:
adb push "C:\path_to_zip\zip_name.zip" /sdcard/bootloader_reset.zip
If this one results in supersu and permission errors, try these paths(Thanks @Sneakyghost for this advice!)
Code:
adb push "C:\path_to_zip\zip_name.zip" /storage/emulated/0/bootloader_reset.zip
Code:
adb push "C:\path_to_zip\zip_name.zip" /data/media/0/bootloader_reset.zip
Case 3 - You totally ****ed up your recovery and data partition:
Right now, I am pretty busy and I don't have time to develop this, check this guide there and post your question there, but pls don't spam @mike1986.
How to: fix a corrupted DATA partition on the HTC One
now you are unlocked and s off... so what we're gonna do depends on what you want to achieve... I didn't really get what you meant in the first post.. you want to be again 100% stock on a Asian ROM ?
with the unlocked bootloader and s off and the custom recovery you are pretty much able to flash the rom you want to the device... how to do this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2632736
or:
Bootloop, No OS, Totally f*cked up OS? No Problem
THIS WILL DELETA ALL YOUR APPS AND APP DATA BUT NOT SDCARD!
First of all, make a factory reset in TWRP... then follow the next steps.
Now the key step here copying the rom.zip to your sdcard. You do this this way
Since you are in the recovery you should be able, no.. actually will be able to use adb commands
To copy the rom zip us this command:
Code:
adb push "C:\path_to_rom\rom_name.zip" /sdcard/rom.zip
If this one results in supersu and permission errors, try these paths(Thanks @Sneakyghost for this advice!)
Code:
adb push "C:\path_to_rom\rom_name.zip" /storage/emulated/0/rom.zip
Code:
adb push "C:\path_to_rom\rom_name.zip" /data/media/0/rom.zip
Now, in the recovery, choose install and select the rom you should've just copied and install/flash it.
After that make a factory reset, the standart when chosing wipe in TWRP.
Happy rebooting!

Hello, LibertyMarine, thanks for the response!
I've already downloaded TWRP recovery from the TWRP website, is the one you give me different?
Re: Case one-- I've actually tried flashing the TWRP recovery image before, but it doesn't seem to work. Thing is, I've idiotically relocked my HTC one now, so that might be the problem.
This is what I get when I try to flash TWRP recovery:-
fastboot flash recovery TWRPrecovery.img
target reported max download size of 1526722560 bytes
sending 'recovery' (9948 KB)...
OKAY [ 11.854s]
writing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 12.707s
as for unlocking my relocked bootloader, I've tried numerous times and I simply cannot get my relocked bootloader to unlock again. Whenever I put in the "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin" (and yes, I've put the Unlock_code.bin into the same folder as fastboot and adb, the terminal gets stuck at "sending 'unlocktoken' (0 KB)…"
and nothing happens on my phone.
Re: Case two-- I'm one of those poor S-on folks so…
Re: Case 3-- looks like they need custom recovery flashed already… but (see Case one above), I can't seem to flash TWRP on my poor phone … : (
As to the last solution-- totally f-ed up OS etc…. again, I don't have TWRP… nor can I used adb
I'd be ever so grateful if I can just find a way to put twrp on my phone again! o gawd….
THanks again for all suggestions!!

Yeah... case 3 needs a custom recovery.. but you won't need that one anyways.. because your data partition seems to be OK
