Hello,
my HTC hero will not boot past the first HTS screen. i am able to get into hboot fastbootusb but with no adp support. s-on and have flashed oem rom with no luck. before this happened i changed a few settings in qpst in an effort to flash it to another network.

Reflash your recovery. It might help.

Go to the H-Boot screen and it should show that if you push the "home" button to get into recovery. Go into recovery and format system, data, cache, and boot. Then, reflash a new rom or restore a nandroid. I don't know what you were doing to get into the situation that you are/were in.
The H-Boot searches for a HERCIMG.zip (Herc is for Hero CDMA), if you are S-on, I am not sure if you can even RUU or not (there is a thread about fastboot though). You might be able to though, but you are ok as long as you can get into recovery. If you can, follow those steps above (those are for using clockwork recovery) and you should be ok if you were only messing around with folders in the system. In fact, you might not need to wipe anything but just flash a new rom. Why not start fresh though?
Good luck! I would suggest getting S-off, it has saved me time and headaches.

thank you but...

Thank you but that is the problem i am having. i can and have flashed the ruu both threw the sd card and threw fastboot usb.
i can not get into recovery, when in hboot i hit the home button and the phone resets and stays on the first htc screen.
can you install "clockwork recovery" without the phone fully booting ?
or is there a way to get s-off without fully booting the phone

If you can fastboot then adb will work. Just do
Code:
adb flash_image nameofrecovery.file

Did the ruu load when you did it? It should show you all of the images loading on your phone. There should be a recovery image in it too. What recovery were you using when you this happened?

yes the ruu loaded , i wasn't using a recovery when this happened i simply reset my phone after i loaded a new service programming file on it. I have no idea what you mean by "It should show you all of the images loading on your phone." .
ok just to clarify to all people trying to help , flashing a new ruu dose not work, but i thank you all for the help and hope i can get this fixed.
So keep the advice coming

I am having the exact same issue (I think). Randomly in the middle of the night my phone rebooted. Now it only gets to the HTC boot screen and then reboots again.
I tried booting into recovery, but it just goes back to the HTC screen.
I did not recently flash any new ROMs and have been using the same version of CM7 for awhile now. I was using Clockwork recovery. Nothing I do can get past the HTC screen. I tried all the options suggested. I even placed a new recovery image on the sdcard hoping that would work.
Any more ideas?

Have you tried Booting Without your Sdcard? If that Didnt work, Try Copying Everything from your Sdcard to a Computer, then Delete Everything off your Sdcard! Then One by One Put'em back onto your Sdcard and see if you get Lucky?
Good Luck Bro!

Same happened to mine too.drained battery. Charged it but now only shows HTC screen not going to recovery. No SD doesn't work

guys please help ..

HTC One Bricked - Keeps Booting into Recov but then Restarts.

Here is what happened:
1) Installed Android Rev HD, worked fine.
2) Installed Xposed mod and bricked device (got stuck at Beats Audio)
3) Booted into recovery, restored Nandroid backup (of STOCK rom).
4) That worked fine and I was able to boot back into stock.
5) Then I went back in Recovery to Install Android Rev HD back, after that was installed, I got a prompt in Recovery that root might be removed and asked if I wanted to restore it or something. I clicked yes and my phone immediately turned off.
Now I am stuck in a loop. The phone keeps restarting and then booting into recovery but the recovery screen only flashes for 1s before the phone restarts and completes the whole cycle again. I am only able to boot into the bootloader. Even if I power down the device, once I turn it back on, it tries to boot back into recovery again and starts the whole loop. Please help.
Update: I tried reflashing recovery using the All-In-One-Toolkit but it says "error: device not found". However, the command "fastboot devices" does detect the device.
Update 2: Tried using adb to "fastboot flash recovery" but it wouldn't work. I tried reflashing CWM (downloaded from their website) and TWRP but both of them suffer the same "load up for a split second" and then restart issue.
Update 3: Wiped the cache and now im able to boot back into recovery.

You need to force it to turn off me thinks. Not sure how you do it on the One. On my old sensation it was power+volume keys. Once off connect it to a charger, see if it charges, if yes then it should get passed flash screen. Try flashing a Rom but make sure you are fresh flashing, not flashing over something.
The quick restart thing sounds like a command that's stuck. Once it gets to fastboot it's rebooting as the commands there, but not clearing the command.

Im able to turn it off via bootloader but it isn't doing me any good since once I power the phone back on, it goes back into the loop again.

If you can turn it off in bootloader, can you not flash recovery?

I was able to reflash recovery via adb but the "new" recovery still had the same problem of immediately closing. However, I wiped the cache via adb and now it works.

In bootloader->recovery, conncect your phone to pc, use this command line "fastboot erase cache" under a folder which contains fastboot.exe and related stuff. This will fix the problem.

[Q] Help! Bricked my phone during Flash!

Hey guys,
So I've been at this all day on another forum. Here is the link to ONE of the threads : (Edit removed, cant post links yet)
So I was trying to Flash to Android Revolution HD and it got stuck at 30% half way through the installation. This lasted a good 5 hours...
I finally managed to reboot the phone using "adb reboot bootloader"
But now I'm stuck on "HTC Quietly Brilliant" splash screen!
I JUST bought this phone last night off kijjiji and I'm reallly ****ting bricks now (no pun intended)
Any help whatsoever will be really appreciated
Added a screen shot of what it was stuck at a few minutes ago. I JUST managed to reboot it..but it's still stuck.

Hi, hold it under a bright light and hold down power until it turns off, then reboot into bootloader, select recovery, then reflash the ROM

Not really sure how to get into fastboot. Will typing that command get me to fastboot and erase cache.
Here are my options now, using the Hasoon2000 AIO
1) Re-flash a recovery - ClockWorkMod, ClockworkMod Touch, TWRP AND THEN Install zip via sd card
2) Do above ^^ but install via sideload
3) Just erase cache with AIO and install zip from sim card
What should I do?

It doesn't matter, once you're in cwm recovery, reflash the Rom with a full wipe and you should be good. Calm down dude.
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium

just like the gentleman above said, you need to calm down first. If your phone can boot, although it hangs midway, it has a big chance not to be bricked in anyway.
And I don't advice you to use the AIO tools, just try to follow every simple guides to flash custom recovery-root-custom rom and you'll get familiar with the process in no time.
So I assume that you can boot into recovery, these are the steps that I think you should follow:
- re-download the custom rom that you wanna flash (make sure that the download is not corrupted)
- boot into recovery (in your case,CWM)
- wipe cache . wipe dalvik (in advance settings)
- install zip --> choose zip --> point to your custom rom
- you'll see the aroma installer, pick your options until it begins to install.
- if the installation went smoothly, don't reboot phone yet, get back to recovery, wipe cache/dalvik then reboot system and let the phone install the OS (first boot usually take long timer)
- if the installation hangs at midway, reboot again into recovery (power + vol down until button blinks and phone boots into bootloader) then start again from first step
once again, I advice you not to use the AIO tools. it's safe but you need to know what you are doing and the process to conquer your phone is not that hard.

What are you holding to try to enter bootloader? I use power and volume down and it works every time. Just hold them until the bootloader screen appears then let go.
Also, like others have said, it's better to use adb and fastboot commands yourself in cmd or terminal, rather than using the toolkit - it's not too hard, there are plenty of guides, you learn quicker and it's more satisfying

I really appreciate your reply man. Yeah, I need to calm down haha.
Alright, the problem is that I can't get into recovery mode unless I use the AIO tool. I've tried everything else. Using the volume down button, under the bright light etc etc. IT just goes straight to the HTC screen. It must be noted that I DID have problems getting into my bootloader before as well. A moderator of another forum made me download an app from the app store that let me either reboot int bootloader or reboot into recovery.
Rebooting in bootloader didn't work through that app either, it just restarted the phone, However,rebooting into recovery worked. Also, AIO tools doesn't seem to allow me to reboot into bootloader either... that command just restarts the phone and gets it stuck on HTC screen.... BUT the "reboot into recovery" works here too
Problem 2 ) The device is being detected by my pc but I can't access the file system in it. It just showing as a drive with no GB in it whatsoever . when I use "adb devices" in cmd it shows my device along with the serial id though.

So, what's your situation at the moment? You can get into recovery? What are you trying to do?

Well, I'm not sure what my course of action should be.
I'm in recovery mode right now. Got there using AIO.
The Android Revolution HD rom is STILL in there.
However, I'm wondering if I should put in a new rom using adb push (just watched a youtube video that says I can apparently do that)
Or should I REFLASH with new recovery and then install the rom?
What should be by next step? Because I dont want to be making mistakes

It is not bricked, you should hold down your vol down+power a tad bit longer, you should hold it until the screen comes on and not until when it's turned off. If the installation is stucked in recovery you should be able to go to bootloader.
You need to mount usb to your computer first. If you cannot find the option to mount it, you probably need to push files through adb in fastboot mode.

I would just try flashing the ROM again - it sticks at 30% all the time, it's a common problem with Aroma (the installer), nothing to do with anything you've done, nor the ROMs fault. It sometimes takes a few tries to get it properly. I'd recommend using the volume and power buttons to navigate around aroma instead of using the touchscreen...

Yeah, I tried that too. The phone was INITIALLY just stuck and wouldn't even restart. Nothing I did made it restart until finally... I used adb reboot bootloader to make the phone finally restart into the HTC screen. But no matter what I try to do, it hasn't taken me to the bootloader even ONCE, ever since I got the phone in fact.
Should I push in a new rom using adb? And if so, which one? Android Revolution HD (fresh download) or a different one that you recommend?
Btw, I apologise for the delayed replies, the forum is making me wait between each message since I'm new

While in recovery, on your computer try boot into bootloader with "adb reboot bootloader" and see if your phone can boot into fastboot mode. If it can, I strongly recommend you to COMPLETELY go back to stock by flashing your RUU.exe. After going back to stock, do the whole process of unlock/root again

It's funny you mention that! I had serious issues navigating through the aroma installer, I would have to click the "next" button at least 2-3 times. And when I tried using the volume buttons, it would only go to the button inbetween "back" and "next" which was something like "more info"
Does this point toward any other issue? Or should I go ahead with flashing rom again?

I used adb reboot bootloader to get OUT of the installtion screen, but it didnt take me to the bootloader (as usual) it just restarted. The AIO tools also didn't take me to bootloader when I used one of the commands there. So going to booatloader is really being impossible now!!

I think u need to send it to repair or warranty. Since you can't go to bootloader there's a lot of things you can't do right now.

So now I have two options at hand now...
1) Go ahead with rom installation (this I know how to do)
2) Flash official stock using RUU (this I dont know how to do yet, since I'm not entire sure what carrier this was initially on)

Ok, here is where I am at right now.
1. I reflashed TWRP
2. Did a recovery from my MAY back up
3. I am not able to load into the phone but not everything is loading and the screen is black and reboots after being on for more then 3 mins
4. I can now get into recovery fine.
so Should I just reflash the rom I was trying to flash or will I need to reload a stock rom to fix what ever I screwed up...

Right now I am in exactly in the same place. Anytime I try to reboot it goes straight to the fastboot screen, and I can't get past into either booting my phone, or into the recovery (TWRP) I've tried adb fastboot clear cache, looking for an RUU that works for mine [htc one - sprint 1.31.651.2, M7wls, S-ON, HBOOT-1.44.0000]and all I could find was an OTA). I was foolishly trying to flash the Orio One custom ROM but didn't double check things, and I think it erased my radio. AKA i super messed something up. Whenever I try to flash anything that looks like the stock RUU (i went to the htc dev site as well) it always comes back with an error: (bootloader) signature checking...FAILED (remote: signature verify fail). I've been researching it for a couple hours tonight but no luck so far. Hopefully tomorrow I can wake up with a clear mind and try to figure this thing out. If anyone has any advice, I'd much appreciate it.

[Q] Soft/Hard Bricked, Lost Root, Lost Recovery, USB Not Recognized

Hi all, this is a last ditched effort at maybe saving my phone. I did an update on my SU and for some unknown reason it rebooted my phone. It then loaded up my rom until the kernel settings loaded then rebooted once again. I then tried to go into recovery to flash a backup and it booted me straight into my unlocked fastboot. I then tried to reboot once again in hopes I could fast navigate into twrp through rom manager, once in I was prompted that I no longer had root. I then decided to start over from scratch and load a recovery in fastboot. Once I had everything good to go I plugged everything in and instead of recognizing my phone as a drive, HTC manager popped up instead. I then updated my drivers to see if maybe that would fix the problem with no luck. I am at a loss at this point. I would greatly appreciate any help you guys can offer.

Hi all, this is a last ditched effort at maybe saving my phone. I did an update on my SU and for some unknown reason it rebooted my phone. It then loaded up my rom until the kernel settings loaded then rebooted once again. This is completely normal, you should have just rebooted the phone and been done I then tried to go into recovery to flash a backup and it booted me straight into my unlocked fastboot. Again totally normal, thats the bootloader use the vol to move down and choose recovery and hit power this will boot you to TWRP I then tried to reboot once again in hopes I could fast navigate into twrp through rom manager, once in I was prompted that I no longer had root. I then decided to start over from scratch and load a recovery in fastboot. Why ? Once I had everything good to go I plugged everything in and instead of recognizing my phone as a drive, HTC manager popped up instead. You should not have Sync installed only the drivers I then updated my drivers to see if maybe that would fix the problem with no luck. I am at a loss at this point. I would greatly appreciate any help you guys can offer.

Is the whole point of this just to install SuperSU ?
does your phone still boot up ? at one point you mention using rom manager ?

I was doing a SU update. It restarted into a loop that boots about 1 min after the splash screen then resets. I've tried to redownload root through SU app as I can no longer connect through usb but it reboots to soon. I used Rom Manager to try and get into recovery as a second alternative.

http://download.chainfire.eu/372/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.86.zip
flash in recovery
use adb push UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.86.zip /data/media/0
to get the file on the phone
Reboot to bootloader / fastboot USB
and from command line on pc
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot

I cant understand why people using those ROm manager apps to install stuff. And you said it rebooted after you update your SU. Then i tink you pressed reboot into recovery instead of NORMAL. Am i wrong?

I no longer have a recovery to be able to flash anything. When I try to load into recovery it just boots right back into fastboot. I was just using rom manager to boot into recovery after I couldn't get into recovery through fastboot, not to flash anything. I was updating Super Su through the actual app itself. it seemed to be downloading something when it rebooted itself and I lost root, recovery and the ability to connect to my computer.

I have updated SuperSU many times and never got any problem so there is something you did. Are you on custom or stock rom?
Are you s-off / unlocked bootloader?

My bootloader is unlocked and i'm running Viperrom. I've never gone through the process of s-off but for some reason it says it at the top of my fastboot screen...not sure if that's normal or not.

Ok. I think you need to reflash recovery again.
Boot into bootloader and fastboot usb
then download TWRP recovery from here http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7 and pick 2.6.3.3-m7.img
put it into your fastboot folder and flash it "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img and hit enter
now try to reboot into recovery. When there Wipe Dalvik and Cache and reboot. If recovery ask you to root your device then accept it and reboot.
Remember to connect phone to right USB port not 3.0. Use 2.0 port and try annother cable also.

I've tried a few different cords and all 3 ports I have still nothing but the HTC manager thing. It will recognize it but only for a split second while booting up but it says HTC BUTTERFLY as the drive and i'm not sure if that's a problem or not but it won't recognize it at all through fastboot.

you cant boot up. if it doesnt recognize it in bootloader mode then i dont know.
Try restart PC. Maybe you have several adb at same time. Adn uninstall htc sync if not but keep drivers

Ok will try that now. thanks so much for the help.

I hadthe same problem after flashing a kernel. I repeatedly tried the bootloader (audiodown key + power button) until it started. Recovery was not available, in the red triangle screen press audio up key,got the system recovery screen, wipe cache, reboot the system and then try installing Twrp recovery. It worked.

I'm not familiar with the red triangle screen is there a way to boot into it?

Grizmen what are you talking about. Why should you boot into red triangle? There is no menu called red triangle. Only on stock recovery.

I think @jpaulpra was telling him to reflash stock recovery
then boot to it and do clear cache.. then reflash twrp

When I got into bootloader, I lost the Twrp recovery. So when I selected recovery I got the screen with a "triangle and exclamation mark". If you leave it will reboot the system after couple of minutes. But if the audio up key is pressed, it will show a system recovery screen, where cache can be wiped

Basically all I'm trying to do now it's find a way to get my computer to recognize my phone as a drive. When I go into viper settings and go to advance menu (with the short time I have before boot loop) there is an option to mount drive. When I select the option to do so it hands on splash screen and I have to hold power button to recycle back on. Once back in it's no longer selected. I've never seen a boot loop go pay the flash screen. Is this normal?

Pretty SOL with my son's Nabi2
I'm having a issue with my sons Nabi2 pretty similar. I messed up bigtime guys I rooted it and started messing aroung with the system files. Then didn't get a boot afterwards, wiped everything from twrps system, data, the whole shabang! Even lost my root! and access to on board flash cause I've been trying to recover using twrp with absolutley no luck. I still have the original stock unrooted backup saved to my pc from when I first installed twrp. Can someone please help me? I'm really out here trying to reach out for some help. didn't even know where to post this. Thank you guys. Note to moderators: If this is the wrong place to post this then please point me to the right direction and I apologize.
