I think I may have bricked my Vivid - JuopunutBear bootloop - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

I attempted to S-OFF the Vivid using Hasoon2000s S-Off toolkit. All went well until the first reboot when it comes up to the JuopunutBear screen. The device was no longer being recognized so it was stuck in the countdown of waiting for the device.
Well, I've been looking around for fixes for this and they seem pretty straight forward. The problem is, adb or ControlBear no longer detect the device. THe device will go into the bootload and will says Fastboot USB. The computer makes the noise as if the device is being connected/disconnected. Yet adb says no device detected. What have I done? I need some serious help.

Can you get into bootloader or recovery?

try fastboot
Even if the device is not recognized with adb try the fastboot commands to flash your recovery again

[Q] Trying to flash zip, now fastboot doesn't work

Hi Guys,
So I have successfully S-OFF'd my device using rumrunner, and I was then using the instructions in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358781 in order to flash my device to a Google Play Edition device.
It worked fine for the commands:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip RUU-HTC_One_GE-3.06.1700.10-rooted.zip
and then I got the expected error message. I then entered the same command again as instructed, but this time I got the message "waiting for device" which didn't go away.
I've tried rebooting my phone a few times, and I can no longer get any fastboot.exe commands to work, I just continuously get the "waiting for device"message. adb.exe still works correctly, so after rebooting my phone I can use adb to boot into fastboot (I know that's not the only way, I'm just saying it to demonstrate that adb appears to be fine) but after that no fastboot.exe commands work anymore.
My phone is running Software version 3.62.401.1. My Hboot I was very sure used to be 1.55 but now after that failed "fastboot flash zip RUU-HTC_One_GE-3.06.1700.10-rooted.zip" it now shows as HBOOT 1.54.
Thanks guys, any help would be immensely appreciated.
Try another computer? Also perhaps a different fast boot package?
Does the device show up in device manager when it boots in fastboot?

Trying another fast boot package didn't work, but a different computer did. Now I'm all set and ready to go thanks!
Just for the record, on the first computer my phone no longer showed up when I put in fastboot devices. I guess for some strange reason there's now a problem with the drivers on the first computer? I thought perhaps reinstalling HTC Sync would help that apparently not.
Anyways, that problem is solved until I want to do this again and want to use the first computer again.

HTC One Stuck in Bootloader and Can't Get Into Recovery

I've got an HTC One with Sprint running 4.2.2 (3.05.651.6). I unlocked the bootloader and rooted it using qbking77's tutorial. I haven't flashed any ROMs on my phone.
Everything has been working fine until yesterday. I took my phone out of my pocket and it was dead. I charged it up and when I turned it on it was stuck in a boot loop on the htc screen. I can get into bootloader fine and fast boot usb shows up on my phone when connected to the computer, but I can't access my TWRP recovery. It shows TeamWin screen then boot loops again.
I have re flashed the recovery and erased the cache. I have also tried to lock the bootloader using Hasoon2000's HTC One All-In-One Toolkit and by connecting to fastboot and typing in "fast boot oem lock. For the toolkit i get device not found and an error and when using the command prompt I get FAILED (status read failed (No such file or directory)). I think its possible my usb debugging may be off since I can't find any devices using adb but my pdanet can find my phone (which needs usb debugging) so I'm not sure.
If I can get it locked, I can use RUU to get back to stock.
I'm running out of options. I'm thinking I can still flash a non-stock rom to get the phone running again and then relock and go to stock. Any ideas on what my issue is and how to fix it? Any input is appreciated.

[Solved] Stuck on white hboot screen while downgrading

Hi,
I had unlocked boot loader through HTCdev on latest GB stock ROM. So, obviously I was S-ON.
Meanwhile, I tried many ROMs but manually flashing boot image in hastboot.
I had following status of last running mobile when I tried to get S-OFF
Bootloader status: unlocked
S-ON
HBOOT 2.00.0000
Recovery: CWM
ROM: CynovivoX (JB 4.1.2)
Yesterday, I tried to get S-off by downgrading as per following thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705913
There were lots of error while script was running, but one I remember was related to goldcard.
While running RUU, It goes well till I find something Error 131, Customer ID related and than exit.
After trying script and RUU many times, my status is
Bootloader status: Relocked
S-ON
HBOOT 2.00.0000
Recovery: ? (can't see or access anymore)
ROM: -
when running fastboot devices, my device is appearing
but in adb devices, nothing there
So, is there still any possibility to recover from this bricked state?
Desperately looking for expert help as I am not developer but somehow....tried this thinking would not be that difficult business....so help.
Try running the latest RUU and restarting everything over. Make sure to pick the right RUU for your region. The latest build number should be 4.14.XXXXX...
Also, in fastboot, your device isn't supposed to be visible with command of adb devices.
Another thing u could try is to unlock the bootloader again and see if u can access recovery again. Adb works in recovery
Sent from the head of the Hammer
If you can get into fastboot but don't have a recovery installed, can't you just flash a new recovery? E.g. grab clockworkmod, connect your phone to your computer via usb and:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img
(obviously replace above code with actual name of .img file)
err this might be stupid, but click on bootloader > recovery.
Looks like you are already in a sub menu when you boot the bootloader.
The error while downgrading is related to you not relocking your phone before downgrading. Always relock before downgrading with an RUU.
Sent from my Nexus 5
Thanks all guys.
But problem fixed. I have unlocked the bootloader again through htcdev and it worked.
Now let me share issue for all other nondevelopers like me who may also face such issue...
runme script is suppose to push some files through adb commands and then reboot to fastboot mode to lock bootloader.
I had adb drivers installed as I got prompt from statusbar.
However still, while running downgrade script (runme), phone was not detected in adb mode and hence no file was pushed to phone. After reboot, phone detected in fastboot and OEM successfully relocked.
I am really surprised why device not found error not appeared and script not stopped. Later I came to know this by running the script without connecting phone and it ran with asking Q&A with found device, and also reading log file.
Then I ran RUU who wiped everything.
So, my device left without any ROM and with OEM locked. I can't access or install recover, ROM etc and RUU was having goldcard error.
Somehow tried to unlock again through token provided by HTCDev earlier (around 2 years back).
And thing become normal and in my control.
My advise: always check "adb devices" before running the script as I found script is misleading of found device and finally locking device. And if such thing happen, easiest one is to get in unlocked from HTCDev and restart whole process.

From what I'm reading, I'm getting a much clearer image of what happened. I believe your problem to be just driver errors...
The script itself is supposed to run regardless of whether phone is properly connected with proper drivers and whatnot. After all, it's just a set of commands in cmd.
But seeing as you ONLY got Error 131, you could have solved this by simply creating a goldcard.

Phone was connected in adb mode. This I can say by checking notifications in android and statusbar prompt in windows 7. While running script only, something got wrong getting adb mode not detected.
Anyway, Goldcard was also in my next line of action, but not sure even after creating Goldcard, I may stuck as version-main was not downgraded to 2. However, tried and got resolved with much simpler effort of unlocking through htcdev.
May be, I am also not that competent to understand developing world and only good enough to simply flash ROMs and updates as per instructions.
Anyway, thanks.

[Q] Possibly Bricked HTC One M7... HELP!

Hi,
This is my first time to create an account and or post on XDA, so I appolagize if my question is somewhere else, or if this is the wrong section...
I have a T-Mobile HTC One M7. I flashed the Google Edition RUU to try it out. I then flashed just the firmware back and was going to restore a TWRP Backup. After I issued the command fastboot flash zip firmware.zip twice, I entered the command fastboot reboot-bootloader. The screen then turned black and won't turn on. The phone seems completely unresponsive. It won't boot to an OS, or Bootloader. No HTC logo on the screen. If I plug the phone in, nothing happens. No charging light or anything. I surrely thought I actually Bricked it, but it appears to be reconized by Windows. If I hold down the power button for so long, the light won't blink, but the computer makes a device disconnected sound shortly followed by a connect sound. I went ahead and connected it to a Linux machine, and the OS sees 6 different partitions / removable media. I am able to browse what appears to be the root, system, recovery...
It is S-OFF via firewater and the firmware I flashed has hboot 1.57.0000. The bootloader is unlocked. The device is not seen by adb nor fastboot.
Does anyone think I have any chance of recoverying it?
Yes it's dead, try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2770684

Fast Boot

I received my new sony 1 ii and have checked and the bootloader can be unlocked and the phone can be rooted. I thought I was away to the races but I'm mystified. I can't get the phone to boot into fast boot.
I appears I have the drivers in place and the phone is recognized by the computer but no luck with fast boot.
I have searched and can't seem to find out why this is. I suspect some kind of driver issue with win10 but when I connect to the computer with the phone off and hold the up-volume nothing happens. I have also tried to boot into recovery mode and that does not work as well. Any help would be appreciated.

On Sony devices you need to power off and hold volume up and plug in the USB cable. That should leave the blue LED to indicate fastboot mode. I'm not 100% sure since it's been a while since I've messed around with Sony devices
Thanks for the input. I have done that and am still unable to action ADB - It is a little confusing since the phone only shows the blue light and nothing else.
If I normally boot the phone it will register as an ADB device. I also find it strange that it will not boot into recovery. The android icon flashes but when you release it boots to safe mode. I assume it is a driver issue but it is not revealing its self to me . Cheers

The blue light is fastboot mode. There is no ui interface in fastboot for sony devices. Just a blue light and black screen.

Same person but had to change user name -- more on the issue
I managed to unlock the boot loader and it seems that at every step for rooting I am running into curve balls. Windows was not working for me so I managed to unlock the bootloader with Linux and going on to the next step I had to go back to windows to find a current factory ROM.
The next issue: going back to the "how to" I am unable to located boot.xxxxx.sin in the factory ROM and the closest I could find is boot_x-Flash-ALL-2389.sin and that doesn't work.
In the boot directory all files are bootloader_X_44 and a combination of zip and sin files
Can anyone steer me through the muddy waters
The factory rom was downloaded through XperiaFirm application

May I know how did you unlock the bootloader? Did you use xperia 1 as your device in https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/unlock-bootloader/#unlock-code?
I have already installed usb drivers and have the platform tools. But everytime I boot my device to fastboot, whether using "adb reboot bootloader" or power button + volume up, screen only shows black (led is solid blue). I did left it for a couple of minutes, nothing happened.

I unlocked my bootloader after obtaining the unlock code from sony developers I used adb/fastboot commands in linux mint. Pretty straight forward but the next step for rooting is giving me issues. Just select xperia 1 and the imei number will identify your phone -- cheers

Yes I followed those. But may I know how long it took you to finish the unlocking?
Install ADB/SDK drivers
Download platform tools
Plug the device
Make sure adb can see my device
Use adb reboot bootloader command
Device booted to fastboot mode
Execute the command with the unlock code
...stucked here
If I miss something. Please do let me know

I assume you are using windows and I must say I gave up trying to get win10 to work and I was stuck at the same place you are. I then switched to linux and it went a lot smoother and I didn't need all those tools as laid out in the description.
In linux you must use the phone to go into fastboot mode if you boot from computer it actually boots to a visible screen on the phone and I didn't have connection that would take the command line commands. Linux is very good because if you are missing something it will give you a link or a command line input when you execute the ADB or Fastboot command.
I have run a windows/linux dual boot desktop for a while now and I'm no expert but coming from the era of command line I can muddle through. Sorry if I can't give you more info on windows but win10 is such a pain and I find that with a lot of things linux works better. If I didn't need adobe acrobat I would not even bother with windows.
cheers

Yes I am using w10. Will try linux later. I have searched everywhere and stucked at the same step. Thank you.
I have managed to unlock the bootloader and root the phone. But problem is. I can't write on the root folder.
More to this I think I might have located the boot file boot_X-flash-all-2396.sin but using magisk it returns no boot image found. I see the guide says use the canary built but that seems to have been shut down, so at an impasse here and am still reaching out for help - damn op phone were never this funky
I might as well put this one out there then -- Is there anyway to flash a op 8 pro in2025 to dual sim - it's the cause of this painful trip
I was reverting my phone to unroot and locked bootloader. And it is saying that "Your Device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot" loop.
I tried flashing it using the new flasher. But after flashing, it will do SONY boot loop. If I connect it to a charger it goes back to "Your Device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot" loop.
I can't use Sony Companion since it is saying that my battery is low, and I can't charge the phone since it will just continue looping.
Do you know/have any recovery.img?
Edt: Fixed my phone. Relocked the bootloader

Any chance you could post the steps to relock successfully? I presume using the fastboot commands etc though did you then just re run the command to relock the bootloader? Many thanks
