USB Bricked...:(

Ok So I've done the most stupidest thing and managed to fudge things up! Any help appreciated! Thanks.
I want to get back to stock RUU. For a UK unbranded device. The phone has S-Off, unlocked bootloader and rooted.
It isn't being recognised by my PC (windows 8.1), not using a USB 3.0 port.
HBOOT 1.54.
Don't know if anyone needs any more information. Any help is welcome! Thanks

1- fix your adb/fastboot, here's one thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2256359 , but plenty of others around so search & google are your friends
2- follow my guide : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541082

I could access fastboot USB before. But then I tried to flash "RUU-HTC_One_GE-3.06.1700.10_Rooted" and things went downhill.
Its not a USB 3.0 problem, as I'm not using USB 3.0. I think the RUU I (tried) flashing has messed things up a bit.
I get this when I try "adb devices"
c:\sdk-tools>fastboot devices
c:\sdk-tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
"fastboot devices" returns nothing.

put your device in bootloader mode, that way the fastboot will see it. I think you do that by holding power and vol down button..

As far as I know HTC one and fastboot don't work with windows 8.1 we need to wait for updated drivers

So I can get into boot loader. But my phone isn't being recognised as connected to USB.
I have been able to connect to fastboot on Windows 8.1 until I tried flashing that RUU.

[Q] Unlocked Desire C can't flash recovery or erase anything

Hi all,
I have an HTC Desire C with following bootloader details:
GOLFU PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.31.0000
RADIO-1.19.98.02
eMMC-Boot
I had unlocked this device's bootloader using htcdev.com
On connection in windows it show "device not recognised" error.So i tried linux for unlocking.Also in linux adb does not list the device but fastboot does.But now when i tried to flash recovery or erase cache or userdata.
erasing 'all'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.003s
and
sending 'recovery' (4888 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.888s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: image update error)
finished. total time: 0.965s
Is there any solution to flash cwm recovery through linux.I had spent along 1-2 days googling for the solution but no success yet.
Thanks in advance.

what is written on the pink line above this text:
Code:
GOLFU PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.31.0000
RADIO-1.19.98.02

If it doesn't say *** UNLOCKED *** you didn't do something right in unlocking the bootloader...

I have just come across this with BOOT Partition whilst starting to S-OFF my device, Have you tried running the S-OFF program?
** Curious why it should state 'erasing all'?! **
What fastboot command/s are you using or AIO/Program?
The only reason I ask this is because I ran the S-OFF exploit and failed with BOOT/ROM types, I have been unable to Erase the BOOT since but could Write to it, Fastboot would report
erasing 'boot'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)

even though Dev Unlocked, TWRP recovery and SU installed and everything as it should be (and no updates to PC either).
If you have started to S-OFF it could be something that is reset, one thing to try is maybe running the Unlock Token again or flashing CM10 in with it's BOOT and S-OFF.
I take it Recovery is still present and working?

I tried many AIO programs namely: unrevoked and revoltionary. But these are windows based programs and the device is not detected by fastboot or adb in windows. I unlocked the device through linux. In linux fastboot lists the device but adb still not. So i'm unable to S-OFF this.

Try to find htc drivers somewhere around here, and try reinstalling them. maybe that will work.

Yes, I had tried installing the drivers with different versions as well v3.x and v4.x. But everytime windows flash the same unregnised device error.

have you tried deleting and re-adding device?
Check http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315539 to show nonpresent devices and then in device manager click view, show hidden devices.
Then, delete all devices in Android usb devices section, and check other devices for Android adapter, and similar...
After this, restart computer, and try connecting the device again.

Yes in the device manager, the device shows "device enumeration failed" or something similar like error.Also I tried uninstalling all the drivers and install HTC sync as I read somewhere than it installs all the necessary HTC drivers but it doesn't help either. Also is there any way to enable ADB in device as it won't boots up the OS and i can't enable USb Debugging options?
Thanks.

HTC Sync doesn't help, it's better to just install the drivers
Sync (as far as I'm aware) doesn't do too much without your system running, for what you may need to do it'll interfere.
Check in the forum's for drivers for your PC OS

Have you tried running it on someone else's computer (ideally one without any htc drivers)?
Have you tried running the RUU to replace factory software? If adb works after that, maybe it's a bad unlock, or something else...
P.S. Check posts on returning to factory (relocking the bootloader etc...) on forums...

Yes i tried 2 laptops both with windows 8.1 installed but at the end only linux helps for unlocking. Can tell me more about RUU as i have very little idea about this. Is this RUU thing works in linux like ubuntu as it ony detects the device in fastboot mode.
Thanks for ur help..!!:angel:

Actually I have tried installing drivers and android sdk as well but of no use till now...!

Have/are you able to try it on an XP system (never had a driver problem unlike Win 7/8) ...install drivers, sdk etc... but DO NOT install sync (I never have to use flashing/hboot)...

I don't really have an idea what could you do from here on, except trying it on XP or windows 7 as Antagonist42 said.. Maybe the drivers don't work yet on newer windows 8.1 systems.
RUU is practically original phone software packed in executable file, but it only executes on windows, though someone could unpack it and manually transfer to the phone on linux too. RUU runs pretty much the same thing that we do with adb and fastboot commands, but it is wrapped in some nice software
P.S. how about using another USB cable??? Maybe this one is broken...

NO I haven't tried windows xp system actually. It seems that I need to boot windows xp virtually as my BIOS won't support it...!
Will it be fine if I virtually try to do all this stuff?
Thanks!

I can't see it being a problem myself but not something I've had to do myself, it's worth a try

Not worked! Tried on both VirtualBox and VMWare but no success!
BTW Thanks for your time "Antagonaist"

Only other thing I can think to suggest is a recovery in a update.zip from the SDCard ... TWRP or CWM, and see if it works, seeing as this would be a HBOOT run update and not ADB/FASTBOOT update by a user

HTC One M7 Help

Hello all. I need to know is there something wrong with my phone. Been trying hard for weeks to root and not got anywhere.
My pc is on Windows 8.1
It reads my phone as My HTC is this bad?
I follow the htc dev page and can't not get command prompt to find my phone. I am not sure of the command to do this.
Also does it matter that I received a OTA of 4.4.3 and my H-Boot is 1.57.
Cheers.

Should I delete the old ones and start a fresh.
I'll try your files.
Should you be able to root with it at 4.4.3 and so on.

Restore to Stock

I have a (sprint) H/K edition M8 running 4.4.2 rooted with TWRP recovery, s-on with 1.54.654.13 & SPCS-004. I wish to return to stock to get the Lollipop update and then return to root. Im at a loss as to what to do please help any advice is appreciated.

Check out the thread in the link below. Use the RUU for the HK Lollipop update. You'll need to relock your bootloader before running the RUU. After running the RUU you'll need to unlock your bootloader and reinstall TWRP. You can then flash a ROM.

Connect your phone to your computer. Run the command fastboot oem lock. That will relock your bootloader.

My adb isnt recognizing my phone, have the stock google drivers & htc drivers installed and ive tried with my phone both powered on and in fastboot. I believe there might be a driver issue but im not really sure

Try this to get the drivers sorted.

Ive already had that installed idk what could be going on

Not to hijack the thread but how do I put it back to 100% stock so I can do a warranty return? I am mostly talking about how to remove s-off. I figure I need to have it back to s-on to do the warranty return.

You have to make sure you install the drivers in recovery,bootloader, and OS
ADB = OS and recovery
Fastboot = hboot/fastbootusb.
The waiting for device might be that you are not in fastbootusb

bootloader says RELOCKED, attempting to run RUU...

successful update, thanks for the help guys. Is there any way to get my on screen buttons changed to the new shape and to root again?

You can install TWRP and root just like you were on any other update. Android version does not matter. Just make sure you unlock the bootloader again, you can use the same unlock token from HTC dev. Then you want to install recovery
Code:
fasboot flash recovery recovery.img
After that, from fastboot, boot into recovery and then reboot system. If you use a newer TWRP it will prompt you to install superSU.

HTC One M7 T-Mobile Soft Brick

Hello everyone,
My friend gave me his HTC One M7 to fix, but I have run out of options. So here's his story: He has the HTC One M7 GSM model which has unlocked bootloader, S-ON,Twerp installed and no OS installed.
HBoot-1.55.000
OS-3.24.531.3
I have tried to first gain S-OFF and use the RUU to get back to stock but the device doesn't appear in CMD when using "adb devices" prompt. I can't enable USB debugging since there is no OS installed for adb to work. Also, I went it into TWERP, but the data cannot be mounted so I can't ADB sideload it nor can I fix the problem by using adb by updating TWERP which helped on my other HTC device.
Is there a way I can make the adb to work? I have already tried using different ports on my laptop but it doesn't work. Or is there a way to use the RUU with S-ON?
Thanks
