I'm stuck at the splash screen. I can't get it to reboot, holding down the power button does nothing. I can't get into recovery. It won't show up in adb to push anything, or fastboot. What do I do?
are you holding down the power down for a good amount of time, sometimes it can take up to 30-45 seconds to hard reset.

A RUU might fix the problem. But I can't find a Developer version RUU so there is no way to test.

Hold down power until the phone turns off the bottom capacitive buttons will start blinking keep holding it until you have a black screen. Then press power button and volume down keep holding both until you are in HBOOT from there go to recovery and then wipe the cache or install a new ROM

So you are saying that it's stuck at the white HTC screen and when you hold the power button down (it makes a little click and your are not letting up at all) the capacitive light don't start blinking takes about 5 seconds?
and the phone has been on for over 2 hours in this state? If it's plugged in unplug it before you hold down power.

They start blinking, but nothing happens. I just timed it, held the power button for two and a half minutes. And yeah I haven't had it plugged in except to try to connect to it with adb, which was unsuccessful. I'm waiting for it to die.

Only thing I can think of is if your power button is a bit recessed so when you try to hold it down it is getting released for a hair of a second the capacitive buttons should blink around 15 times and then the phone will restart. The screen is not flashing black or blank for an instant? Try having someone with long nails hold the power button for you if it's recessed or flush with the casing. Also try holding the power button and volume down so if the phone is restarting without your knowledge it would take you to bootloader

It's not the power button, it was working just fine and I was able to restart my phone just fine before this happened. It's something software side. I've tried to get back to bootloader as well. Doesn't work. The capacitive buttons blink an infinite number of times.

OK you are right! Just had to go through everything I could think of. Let it die. Once it does plug it into a wall not computer and let it charge for a hour. Make sure when you go to turn it on to hold volume down and it should take you to the bootloader. Or you could take it back.

Yeah, I'll just warranty it out if that doesn't work. Just frustrating. This is why I hate not having a removable battery. I don't get why the power button won't just hardware cut power from the battery like normally. Could just be my phone is actually frozen frozen.

Pulling the battery is the most common way to reset your phone, but this guy has the real answer. If you hold down the power button for ~10 seconds, it will do a soft-reset of the phone (meaning it will restart it). I've pulled off that back cover and removed my battery more times than I could count before I realized I could do this. It saves you a lot of trouble!

Not holding it long enough then. That's "battery pull" button combination. It can literally take 10-20 seconds. The buttons flashing is a good sign.

Congrats then, you get to wait until your battery dies.
try just holding power until screen goes off then volume down until in bootloader. may take a while but it works ive been in far worse situations with this phone but it always comes back. starting to think this phone is really hard to brick. all in one toolkit is a lifesaver if your not using it you should be. if you have a problem getting into recovery use it and if recovery starts then reboots or closes back to bootloader erase cache with all in one toolkit the boot to recovery
Define a while. Ive held the button down while lights flashed 200 times. It won't turn off.

where are you stuck at? download all in one toolkit and see if that has something that will help you. it saved me a bunch of times already. if the phone turns on or is on your okay. its just frustrating sometimes when you think you might have ruined a $600 device but as long as its on your ok no need to stress

If you've held the buttons for around 40 seconds you are going to just have to wait for the battery to die happened to another person. One other thing count the flashes after 20 release and then hold again and it should reset at 15 flashes if not then you are going to have to wait for the battery to die. Good news is after that the other person was able to get back to recovery and didn't have the problem again.
still nothing. Hope it drains down completely over night. I need to be able to get the thing up and running tomorrow
As an Evo owner I was shocked to hear the correct procedure for that phone was pwr + VOL UP AND VOL DOWN yes all three at the same time. I assumed vol up and vol down could not both be selected at the same time because they were on a rocker switch where, if one side is low, the other must be high. But it turns out you could do both. Is the HTC One like this?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
back up and running. battery finally died. Flashed stock boot.img after a recharge and all is well.
I'm swearing off of aroma installers from here on out.
Had the same problem also today. But I did not give up to try pressing power + vol down. After several attempts the phone finally restarted.
You're more patient than me I guess. I worked at it for more than an hour and a half.
My phone will no longer boot.
Pressing the power button does nothing.
When I hold down the power button for a period of time (seemingly infinite) and the home and back buttons blink. The screen itself does nothing.
When I hold the power button + up / down buttons (I've tried various combinations) then again, the home and back buttons blink and the screen itself does nothing.
Of course...I'm naturally concerned that the phone is bricked / dead.
I've done some googling and a little reading around and I think I can resolve the issue by botting into fast boot and using hasson2000's all in one toolkit.
....is it likely the phone can be put into 'fast boot' (I think this is what power + volume down does)?
I do I need to wipe "everything" including the custom recovery?
Thanks for your help.

Yep he's right. To prevent soft reboots in your pocket, htc made it so that you need a light in the sensor. Try holding the power button under a light, and be patient. If it doesn't work after 5 sec, keep waiting until it does. I have had to wait for 30sec-1m once, but it worked eventually
EDIT: you could also try if ADB works, in that case you'd just have to use adb reboot.
It worked!

It works !!! u saved my phone
My One is S-Off, bootloader unlocked and i have installed custom rom.
Sometimes when the phone is turned off (no matter which rom is installed, no matter if fastboot is on or off) and when i press the power button, nothing happens. Even if i charge the phone, not even the LED lights up.
The only solution is to wait for about 10 Minutes and try again to press the power button. Sometimes it turns on, sometimes not.
What is the problem here? This is weird :crying:
I just turned it off, then turned it on and now the spalashscreen apperas and then the screen gets black again. Can not acces fastboot or recovery.

I flashed this rom ( Sprint_HTC_One_1.31.651.2_Stock_Rooted ) . Phone booted and touch screen stopped working. I'm in a rough situation because the phone also will not reboot. I've tried holding all buttons, just the power button, the power and volume down button. No resolve. Anyone have any suggestions on how to make this phone reboot (besides waiting for battery to drain lol )so I can try to install another rom and see if touch screen comes back. Thanks

Just ask the dev to move it....hold the power button and volume down then release power after about 7 secs and press it again but keep volume pressed the whole time to get to boot loader then go to recovery from there

Yeah I mentioned that in an earlier post. I cant adb because I cant unlock the phone to allow the computer to be trusted by the phone... I have the phone sitting on the table with a piece of tape holding the power button in causing the screen to stay on and keep the endless countdown going... hoping that kills it quick..... I guess that's the solution to this problem if anyone else may happen to come across the same thing lol

When you are holding the power button down and it starts to count down shine a flashlight at the light sensor to the left of the speaker on the top (or hold it under a bright light). I had this happen to me before where it wouldn't simulate the battery pull. Just sat there. Apparently the phone has a built in defense to not reset in low light situations in case you accidentally hit the power button while the phone is in your pocket. The flashlight on the sensor trick works. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314952
