Hey guys,
due to being fed up with Sense I installed the latest CM10.1 nightly build for the HTC ONE with clockworkmodtouch recovery and now my phone seems to be bricked.
I pushed the rom on the device via adb sideload which went without a problem. Then I rebooted without wiping everything, which I simply forgot (I know...). Then the CM logo animation started and didn't stop until the battery was fully drained. After charging the battery and starting the phone, it goes to the HTC logo with the red warning text, and then directly to the CM logo again. I can't get into the bootloader via power+vol up or power+vol down, and once the phone is running I can't even hardware reset it via those keys. The soft keys' illumination just starts blinking.
Maybe someone has had a similar problem and can point me in the right direction. I can't access the phone via adb btw.
TL;DR:
Installed CM10.1 with cwmt recovery via adb sideload
Forgot to wipe everything before rebooting
Phone stuck in CM start animation
Hardware keys don't seem to do anything (soft keys blink), even if I hold them for over a minute
adb devices or anything like that doesn't work
Any help would be appreciated

are you sure your holding down the power button for long enough? the softkeys will blink until the phone has reset itself. takes around 10-15 seconds.

Yeah, I tried holding them for over a minute already. No luck.
if you can get to the cm logo you should be able to plug the phone in and reboot to recovery with adb
adb reboot recovery.

How can I get into recovery if the hardware buttons don't seem work (except to turn the phone on)?
That happened to me flashing a ROM. I went into recovery and wiped cache and davlik. Then it just takes time finding the right restore.

Power on with vol down pressed. Wait for boot loader. Connect usb. Wait for phone to say fastboot usb.
Fastboot erase cache
from computer command prompt then
Fastboot reboot recovery

Like I said in my OP, I'm not able to enter recovery. If I press power+vol up for a minute or so, the phone boots AFTER I let go of the buttons. Then it goes to the HTC logo, 5 secs later to the animated CM logo, which will rotate until the battery is dead.

Alright, I got into the bootloader now! A big thanks. I feel like an idiot. The problem was that I let go of both the buttons simultaneously, like it says in almost every tutorial. Now that I kept the vol down button pressed it worked. Thanks man.
I don't understand how you can get to the loading screen but not the recovery. That sounds strange. I've been stuck in a boot loop before. I took my battery out, put it in, held the buttons, then it should work fine. I can't understand how it won't go into recovery unless you really messed up.

tryed to install a new rom and did a full wipe the rom didnt install so i rebooted and now when I hold the power volumn button down i get a quick flashing white/red light where the power charge light is on the top left and cannot get into the phone to do a backup restore any ideas?
thanks
can now get the starting x with the unlock icon on screen but still hangs there thanks for any ideas
Did you try to boot into recovery? Did you try to flash the recovery image again via fastboot?
finally got phone into recovery and restored. I have been having this problem several times.
when I try and go into recovery after the phone is shut off I hold the power and volumn button down at the same time and this usually will boot the phone to recovery. But sometimes it hangs up and the small led on the right coener of the phone will flash between red and white. After removing the battery for a few minutes it goes into boot mode.\
Have you heard of any one else with this problem? thinking the phone might have a problem ?
Was excited for a second as I was hheading to bestbuy for the Nexus s. (smile)
But I want to wait a little longer to see whats next. Tons of stuff coming out wonder ehat google will bring us after the nexus s ????
oh thanks for the reply too

You could just flash everything back via fastboot. Its in the wiki I think. If not it's in the forum.

Hi um I'm pretty new to Android phones, and my Captivate's stuck in a bootloop...
I had CyanogenMod 9 on it, based on ICS 4.0.4, which i still have the .zip for if necessary. But I think I did something stupid... in the recovery (which said something about CWMrecovery) mode, I absent-mindedly formatted the /system directory... derp....
Now basically the phone shows the AT&T logo, then shows some kind of recovery screen, it only flashes up for a short time but I can see in the background both an android, like stock recovery mode, and the logo from ROM manager (or something very similar). There is some text at the bottom but it's very small and only flashes up for a split second so I can't read it... and what's worse, it won't boot into recovery...
I'm not exactly sure how to even do it, but random combinations of the volume & power buttons and home.. screen-area-thing work eventually.. but it's just not working now, as i hold the buttons it either just keeps rebooting before it gets past the AT&T logo or ignoring it completely, showing the recovery screen then rebooting again anyway
Sorry it's kinda long.. I tried to be detailed XD
tl;dr CM9 rom Captivate, formatted /system, stuck in bootloop, recovery mode won't work
Any help would be much appreciated
Edit: Forgot to say, I've searched around already but I haven't found anyone else who's bootloop is caused by formatting /system -.-
re flash the rom. you erased the rom.
dont wipe dont format just flash the rom again. you should be back as if it never happened.
If your in a boot loop you might want to invest in a jig, only $6 on eBay
You also said recovery doesn't work? Have you tried putting it into download mode?

you are freaking out because of the bootloop and not holding the button combo for recovery long enough.
take out the battery. and replace
hold both volume buttons
then hold power
keep buttons held for 5 seconds AFTER screen comes on.
if your phone turns on and starts to boot, you have recovery and download.

Tried that, isn't working :\ it just ignores it, shows the recovery screen realy quick then reboots again...
I've had this happen on my captivate...only option is to flash back to a stock ROM and work your way back up to CM9 or whatever you were trying to flash originally. To do this your gonna have to get into download mode. A jiff is your best friend in this situation as suggested by several others. however if the button combo for download mode works for you, that is best. Try unplugging the battery, wait for like 10 seconds and plug back in. Have a PC running, and make sure you have the drivers installed. have the USB cable plugged into your computer, and while holding both the volume buttons down, plug the cable into your phone as well. This should put you into download mode and your good to go.

thanks cmilldrummin (and everyone else)
I got my phone into download mode fine... but i don't think I have the drivers :s (googling still, but can't find them so far)
Also I got it into recovery mode earlier, re-flashed the same custom ROM but when I tried to load it it just kept loading with the blue android on a skateboard until the battery ran out (It was the same one, CM9)
Is the like actual android system openable in download mode? so I could re-write the /system folder? if not I guess I'll just try to re-flash a stock rom then upgrade.. *crosses fingers*
Best way is to flash back to stock and start fresh.

TRusselo is right. The other posts here are taking the sledgehammer approach for a simple fix. If you cannot get into recovery mode - you're doing it wrong, try again. reflash your rom from recovery and all done.

Try doing this, this has worked for me since I can't get into recovery with the traditional button combo method of holding all three buttons at the same time.
Turn the phone off. Hold the power button, vol up, vol down. Once the ATT boot screen comes on, let go of the power button. Keep holding the volume buttons and voila, you're in recovery.
Agree. Definitely go back to stock if possible first.

Hi Everyone;
I unlocked my phone for flashing custom rom. After unlocking i reebooted it and was normal. Then i flashed cwm via htc one toolkit. It was successfull as well. Then i go to cwm and made factory reset + wipe cache + dalvik cache. Then i go to install zip from sd card but i could not find my rom file. Thought, it was deleted while unlocking device. Then decided to reboot phone again to copy rom file into the phone and reboot.
But, when i rebooted phone from cwm, it stuck on HTC Logo( Quietly Brilliant screen). Waited sometime, but nothing happened. Then i tried to power off it and boot into bootloader or recovery. I press and hold power button but it does not respond anyhow. When i am holding power button ,back and home buttons are blinking but nothing happens. Almost five minutes i waited as holding down power button but phone does not power off anyhow. i tried all methods like vol down + power, vol up + power and both volume keys + power. But really nothing happens, just blinking back and home buttons. That's all.
I can not simply power off device. :crying:
I also tried boot device via fastboot commands but it says "waiting for device" means computer does not recognize device.
Guys, i need an urgent help. Please...
just keep trying to reboot via holding power or power+vol down. if it doesnt reboot after 30 sec or so let go then try again. if that doesnt work you will have to wait for the battery to die. once you get to bootloader use all in one toolkit to erace cache. then boot to recovery and you rom should be there if not boot back to bootloader and sideload rom

First thank you for your quick reply. Unfortunatelly, power+vol down does not work at all. Maybe i tried 50 times.
Anyhow, after battery die. How can i boot into bootloader. I mean, can phone be charged again in this situation? Also, even if i manage to boot into bootloader or recovery how can i put custom rom file into phone. Actually, i did not use sideload or whatever you mentioned before.
I am serouisly confused now and don't know what to do.
Anyhow, as you said, firlst i need wait to battery die i think. Then i will report back whats happen.
Thank you again btw.

yes your not the first person with this problem. hold power+vol down to get into bootloader. press power button in bootloader to get in fast boot mode. use all in one toolkit to erase cache and side load rom. i recommend all in one toolkit because it automates the process. just select the option then follow on screen steps
Good to hear that i am not the first person That means somehow there is a solution i beleive. Still waiting for battery die. even i had 50 percent battery at the begining but still it holds on I never say again htc battery is bad
I exeprienced that stucking on boot logo several times before with my other htc phones but holding power + vol down/up worked always. This is the first time for me that i faced with power button can not power off device.. Well, ,i hope i wish i can handle out this problem. Definetley with your help.

Today I just got my One. Unlocked bootloader, rooted, flashed Android Revolution rom. Everything worked fine for a while... I wanted to reinstall the rom because I wanted to change some options in the installer - I did not wipe because it was the same rom (big mistake I guess!!). After making the installation option changes, when it was done it proceeded to reboot but now I am stuck in a white HTC logo boot loop hell... (with the red text at the bottom that says "this build is for development purposes only" etc). Holy crap I never had a phone that I could not remove the battery. I cannot get this back into recovery or ANYTHING, it just keeps looping... computer recognizes it, no problem with drivers or anything it just doesn't stay connected long enough (because of the constant looping) to be able to use the toolkit.
PLEASE any advice?? Can't even shut it down omg. Do I have a $600 brick here? :crying::crying:

Did you read the other posts in this thread? The way you do a "battery pull" on this phone is to HOLD the PWR + VOL DOWN button for ~15seconds. Your capactivie buttons will blink, too. On my device, it took exactly 15seconds to reboot. There have been some reports of some phones that get so stuck that you just have to wait until the battery dies and charge it back up.
Alternatively, if the computer is recongizing it, try to adb reboot recovery to try and get into the recovery.

hi again. this morning my battery finally out. Then i put my phone to the charger and started it in fastboot mode( that is a good new) Then i left it for 20-30 minutes to charge a little bit for flashing custom rom.Then i went to recovery and started adb sideload. Sideload was succesful and finally came to aroma installer of trickdroid. I chose my installation options and started to flash rom but process was frozen on 10 percent. It was saying unmount system, unmount cahce and both of them has notification as "already unmounted". But installation was not going on. Then again i tried to go back fasboot mode again by press and holding power+vol down but unfortunatelly lights are blinking but nothing happens again. I think i need to wait to battery die again.
Isn't it quite weird? Why power+vol down combination does not work for me anytime? So, do i need to wait for battery die in every frozen? Do you have any ideas or comments ?
Do i need to go back to stock first ?
EDIT : Battery was out again and i tried once more. This time installation (trick droid) was successful but it frozen at the end this time. And unfortunatelly i can not restart (power+vol down) it again again Holy crap, i am really pissed off with this problem.
O..K...Finally, i managed to start my phone and now it works... Especially thank you skinsfanbdh for your support.
But still i don't know how to solve button configuration problem. But anyhow i think i won't need quite sometim to use it I hope someone can find a solution for that later.

What should I do if I can't even get to the boot screen? I tried holding down the power and volume up buttons, but it just restarts and goes back to the same HTC load screen, what do I do????
Hey everyone, first time here! (And unfortunately not a happy first post)
So, I recently got this HTC One and was trying to get back to stock ROM after a journey with CyanogenMod 10.1 (Which was awesome, but a bit laggy).
Now, I wanted to go back to stock, and so I flashed this ROM I found on these forums (that said to be a .401 version that was stock and the most recent version). Biggest problem here, I'm pretty sure I forgot to wipe data and cache.
The problem that I have right now is that my phone is stuck on the HTC logo, without me being able to shut it down...at all.
I can't boot to bootloader, can't boot to recovery, can't do anything
When I press on the power button (Tried up to a minute) the back and home button start blinking, but nothing else.
When connected to my computer, the PC seems to detect it, but I'm not able to access the storage, or do anything fastboot related.
I'm kinda afraid my phone is bricked!
Help?
Thanks
Rule #1: if it does anything.. It's not bricked
You need to hold the light sensor up to a light source (lamp, sun, and etc..) and hold down the power button till it turns off. Then boot into bootloader and get to your recovery and wipe/re flash
Sent from my Tricked out HTC One
Wow! Thanks for quick response!
I was able to shut down the phone and get it to restart, but I'm not able to boot into the bootloader (holding volume down)
It just goes back to the HTC Screen (the one with Beats logo)
Just want to say thanks a ton!
I was able to boot back in the phone!
Thank you!
Lucky you! Rule #2....whenever rooting your stock ROM for the first time, boot up, then take a Nandroid, and keep one copy on SDcard and your computer!
And maybe going first with popular and proven Custom ROMs, close to stock. And taking a Nandroid of that one as well!
Glad you got it all sorted
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Awesome! Thanks for the tips!
Weird thing, I was able to flash Cyanogen, no problemo (since I didn't forget to wipe cache, etc.)
The other ROM I used was supposed to be a stock image (I had found another one that worked, but I thought the one I found later tonight was closer to the version that came with the phone).
Anyway, long story short, I'm a noob, and that's ok!
Thanks to everyone for the help!

Thanks for this, phone just randomly restarted after a crash and ended up at an error screen. No matter how long I held the power button down it wouldn't restart. I'm in a dark hotel room, so held it up to the window and it restarted immediately. 30 minutes of panic over

Wow. I have to say I was stuck at the HTC Boot logo to no avail (blinking capacitive buttons) and holding it up to a light source actually worked (while holding down power). Thanks so much.
So i installed the rooted stock download on my s-on SprHtc one m7 and the install was seemingly successful, but now my touch screen isnt working. i cant unlock the phone and when i press the volume keys i cant touch the slider, or slide the drop down menu down. when i try to restart the phone it hangs at the "1" count indefinitely it seems. any ideas as to what went wrong? to make matters worse, i usually back up my data on twrp and then port it to my laptop to save space, but now my laptop is having trouble recognizing my phone.

Sounds like you flashed a really old rom.
Flash a rom that is based on 3.xx.xxx.x or higher and make sure you are using the latest version of twrp.

Yeah that rom is old there was a Touch Panel driver update between 1.31.xxx.x and 3.04.xxx.x
btw the latest is 5.05.651.x so that will tell you how old the rom you flashed is.
You should be able to hold the pwr button until the lights stop flashing at that point it will be off or it will try to reboot.
If it's off press pwr until it starts to boot and hold vol down that will take you to bootloader.
If it reboots hold vol down to get to bootloader.

Keep holding power til the screen goes completely black
super freaking face palm. i thought that this was the stock rom for the latest sense. omfg. ruined by my own stupidity..
i cant hard reset my phone, attempting to let it die of battery loss and maybe i might be able to restart it in twrp.
will my touch screen work if its in twrp?

It's been a while but I think it will. If you can manage to get to bootloader you can update twrp.
Maybe try pwr + vol down to reset just keep holding both.

You need to be s-off to use those.
lol ninja'd
holding down the pwr and vol button isnt working..im just gonna have to let it die.
do you think the side load option will let me push my backup over to my phone?
assuming i can even use twrp, knowing my luck, i wont be able to access recovery..

Sideload very rarely works from what I've seen.
You could adb push the backup but I'm not sure if it would flash I've never tried.
A last resort is RUU and start fresh.
i managed to restore my phone,but im having trouble getting twrp to recognize that my backup is in the folder. i copied it back and it doesnt show up in recovery. is there anyway around this?
