I have a Sprint HTC One M7WLS, unlocked, S-ON, Clockwork Recovery.
The problems started with me flashing Revolution HD. I wasn't aware Revolution wasn't available for the WLS (Sprint) model, so I installed it as 'International + Non-listed Models'. The phone booted up into the ROM after installation, but with limited connectivity. The phone would reboot about a minute after loading. I wiped Cache, Dalvik, System, SDCard, Data (everything CWM allows me to format). Reinstalled a new ROM, still experienced reboot issue. The new ROM (TrickMod) gave me a 'Process System Not Responding' error, and then a reboot about thirty seconds after error. All ROMs are having wifi issues. In initial setup, if I'm able to get the keyboard to type in the WiFi Password, my device refuses to connect due to 'temporarily avoiding poor connection' error. I believe this may be the root of, or related to my problems. I get no cellular signal, and am unable to launch 'Activate Device' on any ROM. So far all the ROMs I've tried include:
Revolution HD, TrickMod, SuperNexus, and D3rp. Not all give the 'Process System Not Responding' error, but none of them can connect to WiFi, none can activate the device, and all of them reboot about a minute or two after boot.
Any ideas or solutions?
---
PS: Before flashing Revolution HD (my phone was still running on factory stock ROM), I used TWRP to backup all partitions. After Revolution HD, I attempted to restore all partitions, but the phone would boot up, error, and reboot as with all other ROMs that I tried after this. I installed CWM for TrickMod, SuperNexus, and D3rp so I could sideload ROMs (TWRP would hang on sideload, and I can't boot into the system to transfer ROMs to the sdcard).
---
Edit: I also wiped Dalvik and Cache and Fixed Permissions after ROM install. Still erroring out.
CM 10.1
We can add CM 10.1 to the list of ROMs that don't work.
Have you tried the Ruu?

I downloaded the RUU. Using the All-in-One Toolkit informed me I needed to relock my device and restore stock recovery. I haven't done either of those things yet. I don't know how to reinstall stock recovery.
What exactly does the RUU do though?
Have you tried to flash a stock kernal as suggested above?
I haven't used the toolkit but I read it will relock the bootloader for you. The stock recovery will be flashed during the Ruu process.

Don't many of these ROMs flash their own kernels?
It's my understanding I'll need an unsecure boot.img to flash a stock kernel.
How do I unsecure my boot.img?
Where can I find stock kernel download?
Yes, the roms flash a kernal. Have you tried any of the sprint specific roms since this started happening? I would suggest you try one of viperboys roms.

All ROMs have been found on Sprint HTC One Development forums. Except Revolution HD, which I installed as 'International' since 'Sprint' wasn't an option. That's when everything went foul, including my Nandroid restores. This leads me to believe a botched install of Revolution is the cause of my problems.
I'm downloading Viper for Sprint One right now, give it a go.
Just tried Tranquility, still got reboot issues.
If Viper doesn't work, I'm going to try the RUU. RUU will flash stock kernel, correct?
RUU Worked!

I'm going to install a ROM now and mess it all up again xD
Thanks everyone!
I'm glad you got it figured out.

I know there are a million posts about this, but I have been through them all trying to follow the guidance because the problems seemed to be the same as others have faced, but I feel differently now....
I unlocked my HTC one, following the htc dev site.
I installed TWRP (I cannot for the life of me get CWM to load into reovery, it only reboots the phone...)
loaded the roms/Super SU onto the SD card.
I know my phone is rooted (or i should assume?) because SuperSU is requiring me to grant access to apps and such.
I flash the custom ROM to the phone, install the package following Revolutions steps. Complete installation, return to fastboot menu. Flash boot.img, clear cache and reboot phone....Phone goes to the HTC Quietly Brilliant screen, with the development message at the bottom and continues to reboot over and over and over from there.
What did I do wrong?
I know pretty much have a phone that wont work because even after restoring it, it is ina boot loop after it fully boots up and nothing is loading correctly. Is there any way to start this from scratch?
Notes:
I tried doing an ADB sideload of Revolution HD.
I do a factory wipe before i load any rom....
Edit:
I have tried multiple ROMS...all the same effect....
I also get the message after installing the ROM from TWRP that "your device is not rooted, swipe to install superSU" so sometimes i swipe it, sometimes i dont...either way same result.
Update #2:
I flashed a ROM called 42ONE....it ended up successfully booting past the HTC screen and is currently updating the android system...However, it will operate for about 2 minutes then the phone reboots like it was before when i tried to restore....what the heck?!?
There is no need to flash the boot.img in fastboot. Just flash the rom from twrp.

Download the rom again (might be a bad download), transfer to your sdcard, do a full wipe, and flash again. Something you flashed has created a conflict.
Edit: That's a Sprint ROM. Do you have a Sprint phone? If you've been flashing GSM roms, that's your problem there.

problem resolved so far. REflashed stock rom, relocked device. its working for now.
I've been trying to flash a custom rom to my verizon HTC one, and have been getting stuck in a boot loop on every attempt.
ROMs I've tried:
CyanogenMod (m7 nightly 3/19)
ViperOne (5.8.0 and 5.7.0)
Currently running (and stable):
S-Off and Booloader Unlocked
stock radio
stock firmware
stock ROM (w/ root)
TWRP 2.7.0.0
CyanogenMod would boot, but then randomly reboot shortly afterward and was unable to recognize my SIM. Viper goes into a true boot loop, rebooting at the HTC splash screen (w/ red warning text). I have tried flashing each several times, wiping before each installation. Luckily, I have a backup of the current stable ROM, so I'll always be able to get out of a loop. I'm not new to unlocking and flashing ROMs but I've been using an HTC Thunderbolt until now (not losing my unlimited data, finally gave in and bought a used phone). I never had a problem on my old phone, but I feel like I might be missing something.
Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?
EDIT: Tried Android Revolution HD 53.0, same result as Viper

You need to flash a verizon compatible rom.

I came across this in some of the research I was doing, and I realize that was a problem for Revolution, but Viper is listed as compatible. I would have originally asked on their thread, but I'm not allowed to post in that section yet and I wasn't able to find a similar post because the search isn't functioning right now.
The CM page said that build was compatible for multiple carriers, but I did try the m7vzw build and got an error during the installation that said I was using an m7 device.
EDIT: Problem solved, switched from TWRP to PhilZ CWM recovery, Viper booted successfully.
I have spent a day and a half trying to fix all of my issues before I finally turned here but I am at my wits end.
This all started with my attempt to flash Viper to my HTC one. I installed clockwork touch loaded Viper to the drive and went to install. During the install process something happened and my install failed. When I rebooted the phone it returned to the fasboot screen and there was no recovery present. I had heard that sometimes TWRP works better for installing some ROMs so I decided to switch courses and try that. Before installing I went and formatted cache, data, ect. When I tried to install Viper this time it appeared to be a successful install. However, I was once again I was returned to the fastboot screen and no recovery was present. I tried this a few more times with either clockwork or TWRP using sideload with no luck. I also trried using fastboot to flash a sprint stock recovery boot and image. When the phone rebooted it showed the white HTC Screen but nothing happened for a half hour so I restarted the phone again only to be dropped into the fastboot. I also tried locking and unlocking the boot loader and tried a Sprint HTC one RUU with no success.
So at this moment this is where I stand:
I am on the fastboot screen with no recovery.
HBOOT 1.56.0000
S-ON
Any help you can provide would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks for your time.

... now that its up and running, i recommend you get s-off 1st. it eases many things. then flash twrp 2.7.0.4 recovery and try to flash viper :victory: ...
I was in this situation myself. If you can adb twrp recovery onto your phone. Dont try to flash viper with cwm it will mess stuff up. After you have a recovery loaded flash the viper rom. If it boots up be sure to check about phone section in the settings and see if there is a baseband version present. If not just flash the latest firmware and you should be good to go. This was what i had to do.
Same here, about a month ago. They really need to just remove that option to flash CWM. I managed to get a recovery installed, but now it seems like half the ROMs I try to flash won't boot. I don't even know what Rom I am using, because it has disappeared from XDA. It's a 4.4.2 Sense 5.5 ROM, and it is odexed and came with Xposed Installer. It's the only ROM that seems to work anymore, so I have to wonder if my firmware got messed up. I'm S-On, with no way to S-off for the foreseeable future until I can fix my laptop. Since my laptop is unavailable, I'm a bit hesitant to mess with the phone much more, since I can't fix it again without the computer.

I've read a number of these threads, and many have Viper in common. Viper by itself is an amazing ROM. Maybe too amazing... Incredible amount of customization. I have to remind myself occasionally that as much as I flash ROMs and lurk around here that I am not a dev.
I would do my best to achieve S-OFF if you have any plans for custom ROMs. It's always useful. I would also suggest trying one of the Sense 6 ROMs. They are all amazing.

S-OFF is necessary for some ROMs to work, although I'm not sure about Viper. Use firewater.

I am very sorry I know this is a slow response. So I tried to first root my phone so I could use firewater but I ran into issues. First, I tried to place supersu on the internal hard drive via windows but when I rebooted into recovery I was not able to find any of the folders I had access to. So i tried using side load but got errors that I could not mount cache and could not mount system. Do you have any suggestions on how to proceed?
I was running 4.4.3 Sense 6 and saw MaximusHD with 5.0.2 Sense 6. So i decided to try it out and it installed sucessfully but it didnt boot. So after half an hour of staring at the splash screen, i decided to restart and it didnt work.
So i flashed again, clean and dirty and still didnt work.
Flashed new rom and didnt work either. So I decided to reflash recovery and I did but still didnt boot. Tried different recoveries and different roms and different ways to install roms but none of them work.
Please I need my phone to start working again :'(
Its a HTC One_ul, S-ON, unlocked from HTC-DEV.

it won't work without the firmware
what recovery are you using ? flash TWRP 2.6.3.3 and format data from the wipe section, then try your rom

Hi,
Looking for some help from you guys if possible. I have have been flashing Android HD Roms by Mike1986 for some time now on my HTC One (M7). Last updated to HD-One_91.1 to upgrade to Lollipop. Experienced very poor battery performance so looked to flash back to an earlier Kitkat version. Instead of flashing a previous one, I thought i'd give the Google 6.1_GE a go and see what that was like.
Big problems. Phone kept getting stuck in boot loop - so eventually i decided to wipe the phone and start again. Now when I switch phone on It boots into the start screen for Goggle edition then reboots constantly.
As I wiped the patition, I do not have the option to reinstall even the Lolipop ROM.
My phone wont stay on long enough to copy another ROm over. so Im stuck with a pjone that keeps switiching off before I can do anything with it.
I use TWRP recovery but when i try Factory reset etc, same problem occurs.
How can I get another compatible ROM onto the phone or am I stuck with a knackered phone?
Any advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks in anticipation.

Your phone must be s-off to use this rom like said in the OP. Also said that your phone WILL bootloop if you flash it without having s-off.
Android Revolution HD 6.1
Google Edition
You need S-OFF, otherwise you'll experience boot-loop!
You can't use ART with deodexed custom ROM
You need TRWP 2.6.3.3 custom recovery!

Boot in recovery (twrp), push a rom to your phone using adb push, adb sideload or MTP (MTP only available on newer twrp versions) and then flash the rom.
