Did i brick it already?

Like an idiot i flash a mod for a de-odexed ROM to my stock ROM UK Three M7. So stuck at the boot screen.
The problem is i cant seem to do anything about it. I have no back up (I know !!!), no ROM file on the device to flash and i cant seem to push anything to it.
ADB just says no device found even though it was working ok. Can anyone help? Ive tried it on multiple PCs.

AW: Did i brick it already?
Go to recovery Mount your memory to pc. Copy a Rom. After that flash Boot img via fastboot and then Rom from recovery.

Yeah it wont mount, nothing happens.
I cant push anything if it wont mount obviously, i could try doing it from external sd via OTG cable.. but i dont have one.

AW: Did i brick it already?
Did you tried with ruu?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

As understand it if you have an S-ON device(i do) you have to use the right onee or it will fail.Its Three branded unit,so i need a three RUU. There isnt one out there.

RUUs only work if adb can see detect it
Have you tried going through fastboot? Just fastboot some boot.img to get it to boot, then put a ROM on your sdcard

It sees it now. I can get into recovery (CWM) and fastboot, but i have nothing to flash on the phone, i cant get anything onto the phone to flash! I try ADB sideload, it gets to100% but it says..
E: Can't open /tmp/update.zip
(bad)
I tried pushing to the SD card but the recovery then doesn't see the ZIP, its just not there.
/sdcard wont mount in CWM, nothing happens.
I tried a boot.img from the Maximus thread.

Ok its now accepted the sideload! Ive installed the ROM and its rebooted...
Its back!!!!!!

If you could get into recovery, theres a toggle / enable mass storage mode too? You couldve done that to mount your sdcard

I think it won't work

Yeah there is no toggle in CWM and the stock recovery I reflashed was only a test build, and didnt actually do anything.
Well its now working again fine. I dont really know why it worked, but it did. It was suggested i try the Aroma file manager first, which sideloaded OK and let me browse the file system. I then re-downloaded the ROM I was trying to use (Maximus) and tried that. It worked with no errors, although the Aroma installer crashed the first time through, which I understand isnt unusual on the One.
Seems i didnt need to access the SDcard at all, it was just a problem with sideloading. It may have been a corrupt ROM download.
Needless to say i now have a CWM backup, Titanium backup and a ROM file on the SDcard just in case.

You cant mount USB storage in recovery on the HTC One, you can only use ADB Sideload to send the ROM if your stuck in a bootloop or if youve erased the system partition:
I have uploaded the latest binaries to my dev host account.
1. Download and extract these to a directory and copy the rom over into the same directory.
2. Boot up your phone into twrp recovery or a recovery that supports ADB Sideload.
3. Select advanced and adbsideload (Your phone will be waiting for the file transfer.)
4. Open command prompt in the above directory you created with the binaries and rom.
5. Issue command "adb devices" (You should get the serial number with sideload next to it)
6. Finally issue command "adb sideload rom.zip" (rom.zip will be the name of your rom)
This will start sending your rom to the handset and will automatically install.
Hope the above helps

That's what I was doing, it simply wasn't working. It might have been a corrupt ROM download.

Could very well be. Happens more often than you would think
But the mass storage thing is strange....I've seen it on almost all recoveries, but i know TWRP no longer has it in their newer builds, maybe the same thing happened with CWM?

[Q] HTC One Bricked ?

Hi everybody,
My HTC One is no more use full, i made a mistake i format every thing because i would like to update my rom and now i can only boot in recovery or bootloader so no adb command works.
I know you can install a rom thru fastboot command but it's only with file *.img (eg: system.img)
Does anyone know where i cant find this kind of file or can i make one with systel folder in any rom in zip files (eg:Android_Revolution_HD-One_10.3.zip)
Thank's for your help. :good:
Please sorry for my poor english (I'm french)

upload rom.zip VIA adb sideload. Make sure file path is simple. e.g C:\rom.zip. This will start the installation after uploaded.

Thank's for your answer.
When i do that, the process start and stop at 1% with the following message :
* failes to write data 'protocol fault (no status)' *
The command line i used is : adb sideload rom.zip
The One is unloacked and was in recovery with TWRP in which i selected adb sideload.

Go into recovery and use the command:
Code:
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/0
or
Code:
adb push name_of_rom.zip data/media
and flash the rom

It's not formatting, formatting just deletes files system table, partitions are still there, they only need to be mounted.
So before pushing or sideloading the easiest way is in recovery go to Mounts and Storage options and mount data partition (this will also automatically mount sdcard partition (since it is contained on data partition).

recovery/fastboot only (need rom on phone)HELP PLS

I flashed a new recovery twrp 2.6.3.3 to flash android revolution rom... I am new to this recovery so I made an error of deleting formatting the internal storage and in turn the android rev zip I wanted to flash.. so now im stuck in recovery with no rom to flash..and no backup to flash or restore.
I can access fastboot and I tried doing fastboot flash zip rom.zip said remote not allowed:failed...
this twrp wont mount the phone on my pc so I can drop the zip on the phone and flash it.
removable storage shows on my pc but it says please insert removable storage when I click it
I also went to mount on twrp and put the x throu system cache and data.. and tried without the x.. usb-otg is non selectable..but I don't even know what that is.. either way I still cant get access on my computer to drop the zip..
so is there any quick way I can get a darn zip transferred to my phone so I can flash it throu twrp.?
any help would be great
thanks

I think you just need an OTG cable... download and copy ROM of your choice, copy it to a USB drive, then mount the USB drive to your phone using OTG cable (available in most electronics stores for something like $2)
Once the USB is mounted, go into recovery, click install, and at the top there should be a menu that lets you choose between internal sdcard and OTG. Click OTG, and you'll be able to choose the ROM to install on the USB drive.
There's a way to "push" the files to your phone when it's hooked up through USB cable to the PC, but that's a bit more complicated. You can google or search on the forums (how to push files to HTC ONE)

Ya I googled..pushed zip over fastboot as I heard adb won't work..or is that wrong? just dont know if i did it right.. fastboot flash zip yourrom.zip..I'll give that other option a try but I guess I need a USB drive..and a cord.

No, that's not right for flashing a custom ROM. That would be for flashing a ROM from HTC. They're both distributed as .zip, but are different formats. @SaHiLzZ got the right answer, but I'll explain it a little further:
- Install/configure ADB (you probably already did this if you can run fastboot).
- Boot the phone to recovery
- I would run two commands just for a little added safety:
Code:
adb shell mkdir /data/media
adb shell mkdir /data/media/0
Then the key command:
Code:
adb push name-of-ROM.zip /data/media/0/
Make sure the ROM is in the present shell directory on your computer, or type the full path to the ROM. The transfer takes a few minutes. The procedure is identical on Linux/OSX/Windows.
Now the ROM is on your phone, and you can install in TWRP.

Easiest way is 2 buy a USB OTG cable and put the ROM in the USB storage

I'm guessing you have HTC drivers installed.
Connect USB to windows Boot into Recovery, selecr Advanced, choose Sideload, then swipe to start sideload
then with adb use command 'adb devices'
Does your phone up? it'll have a name beginning with sideload
If it doesn't, possible driver issue. What OS are you using?

The phone bootlooped? Strange. TWRP usually runs the script straight after sideload. The zip is on sdcard/0/sideload.zip
What happens when you try to install the sideload.zip?

Flash latest CWM recovery the same way you flash Twrp.twrp is unsecure coz you deleted all your system data in twrp recovery.after flash,cwm shoud work,and adb too.then put superuser.zip on internal storage,install thru cwm to gain root.flash arhd 52.0 rom to get it boot.

I think you have a corrupted partition. Try this: http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/fix-data-htc-one.html
Just something I found with a quick search but, I hope that will fix your problem, if not you should google around for more alternative methods to repairing a corrupted data partition
How Do I Recognise The Problem?
When trying to mount the DATA partition from inside the custom recovery using the mount /data command you will most likely see this output: mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p37 on /data failed: Invalid argument
To be 100% sure you can check filesystem structure with the following command: /sbin/e2fsck -n -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p37
Good luck

So, I did part of this because I'm having a similar issue. I was able to flash CWM, but unable to mount USB storage in order to get this thing booted up. I tried to sideload and that's unsuccessful.
When I use the devices command in adb, it doesn't list it. However, when I typed devices in fastboot, it listed it. Obviously, I'm starting to get pissed.

i had a same problem,needed 3 days to solve it.I understand that adb cant recognize the device(i was getting that error too)and(typing "adb devices" sometimes shows the device)--,but can you put a zip file on internal storage of the phone,now when you have cwm recovery?try to get many informations as you can,read,you will fix this.i didnt try to fix partitions mentioned above,but you can try with that.

It seems like your data partition is trashed, and maybe you need to format it. This is more aggressive than wiping /sdcard and /data. TWRP can do this, and CWM probably can, too. Also, "fastboot devices" should only show the phone when it's in fastboot mode, and "adb devices" will show the phone when it's in recovery or running Android (with USB Debugging enabled).
If you want to poke around a little bit before taking this drastic step, I would try one more time to get adb connected--boot the phone to recovery, wait a few seconds, attach the cable, then give "adb devices" another try. Also, I don't know if the driver necessary for ADB is the same as fastboot. It's possible your computer is configured to do one but not the other. Is there someone else's computer you can ask to use for a few minutes to check this?

Solved unmount /system /cache /data
i've format all the formattable things in twrp , reboot and used adb push and after flash cyanogenmod! ! Thank you all guys !:good:

Boot into recovery. Over there tap on mount and select sdcard and tap mount. Plug in your use cable into the phone. Your sdcard should get detected. Copy the rom of your choice and unmount. Proceed with the normal rom installation and that's it!
