[Q] Looking for help. Cant boot phone, recovery nor use adb commands.

Hej guys. I really hope that you can help me with my problem
Have been trying for 2 days and looking at post but haven't been able to get it fixed.
Here goes.
I have been playing around with custom roms on my htc one for a while now.
Then when i was about to install a new custom rom, i first wiped my phone.
I properly wiped something that should not be wiped, because i ended up with no os and no custom rom zip file that i could install in twrp.
I then tryed sideloading revolutions, and it seemed to work because it ended up booting on the phone and i could select what programs too install with it... but halfway through it stoped and rebooted.
now i cant even get into recovery anymore, and booting the phone only gets it to htc briliant logo. Then it restarts and tryes going into recovery, but it cant, and ends up just restarting over and over again.
Tryed flashing cwm and twrp again, but still cant get into recovery.
adb dont fint my device, and i have tryed all drivers i could find.
Tryed using a RUU, but it fails. Properly because its not the right one, but cant fint one that fits.
Sooo... i think im in a real pickle right now.
my radio is :4a.14.3250.13
hboot: 1.44.0000
Thinking about going back with my phone, but with the warranty gone i dont know if they'll even look at it.
Hoping for some advise, or some ideas on what to do.

Well, im really just trying to get an os flashed back on the phone so i can boot it, either by another custom rom or a stock rom.
But since i cant use adb commands, how do i get a new rom on there?

So I'll try here first. I am having the same issue, I can't get the device to boot into recovery, no matter if I clear the cache, or flash either one of twrp or CWM.
I unlocked the bootloader, I think used the all in one toolkit to flash the recovery. When that didn't work, I erased the cache and manually flashed the recovery, and it said it pushed successfully.
I am at a loss, I have no idea what to try next, any help would be appreciated.
******Finally got it, I had to disable Fast Boot in the Power options in Settings******

How do you copy update.zip from external to internal SD?
Sorry if it's a total no-brainer, but how do I manually copy a recovery zip to the internal update.zip? Can I do this from my phone (which is stuck in a bootloop: see below)? Or do I have to use ADB with my computer?

My situation:
Using Open Recovery I tried to install CM7 with custom kernel on my XT720
It gave an error: "assert failed: write_raw_image... Status 7" As I was looking that up, my phone blackscreened. After a while I pulled the battery.
Then on startup it went into a bootloop after a picture of a broken screen saying "2ndboot kernel restart in progress." (Presumably the kernel wasn't properly applied?)
Trying to boot into bootloader says battery is too low.
Phone will only turn on when plugged into outlet.
What I think I need to do:
- Copy a good update from my external SD over the bad update.zip on the internal SD, and apply the update to reset the kernel, etc.
- Open Recovery could do this, if I could load it.
- I could load Openrecovery if I could get the bootloader to run,
- I could get the bootloader to run if my battery would charge

[Q] I deleted everything on the one, please help

I am a newbie trying to root htc one(att) , after I installed the 4.2.2 it began to keep restarting,I tought it was because I didn't wipe my data before I flash a new ROM, so i enter the TWRP and wanna wipe data and try again.
But I selected all the options and wiped everything on the cellphone including the OS, so now I can enter the bootloader, and I can enter the recovery, but I can't find the "USB storage" in the computer , so how can I transfer the rom to the storage and flash again?
Thank you very much

You know what ADB and Fastboot are I assume? if not, I'll explain more.
But you have to do the following:
- download a rom of your choice on your pc (or use one you already have on there)
- put it in your ADB folder (for example for me C:\Users\Thom\Downloads\One\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130219\sdk\platform-tools)
- then open a command window in that folder (shift+right click on the folder, or in a cmd window use the cd command)
- use the command "adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/ROM.zip" replacing ROM with the EXACT name of the ROM file and including the .zip piece on both ends. This may take a minute or two...or four, but you will see a message in Command Prompt saying something like <12345678kb to 1234567kb>. That is just telling you that the file was pushed properly.

Hi, thank you for the help. I followed your guide and successfully transfer the zip into the phone. But when I enter the recovery and try to install, it failed and says:
E: unable to mount /cache
E: unable to mount /data
E: unable to mount /system
E: unable to mount internal storage
I click the mount option in the recovery , there are 4 box (cache, data,system,USB-OTG), but I can't choose any of them.
Also at the bottom of the box it says that"Storage: Internal Storage (0MB)"

the other, and right now I think only, option is to flash a RUU.
Which One do you have? Europe, Asia, AT&T, Developer, etc? Once I now that I can point you in the right direction

ok, I'll try to help.
I had the exact same problem yesterday (I was being a bit dumb and accidently pressed the wrong button ) and I managed to solve it.
Okay, here is the RUU. Download it, it may take a while.
http://bugsylawson.com/files/file/1847-ruu-m7-ul-jb-50-cingular-12650212exe/
So while it's downloading, start with preparing.
First of all, did you flash the new firmware already? If so, go back to the old one. I'm not sure if the AT&T has same firmware as the international, if it does I can give you a link because I still have it on my pc.
You can flash it with "fastboot oem rebootRUU" (case sensitive!)
then when you see a htc logo on your phone "fastboot flash zip firmware.zip" (replace firmware with actual file name)
THEN FLASH IT AGAIN, OTHERWISE IT WON'T WORK AND YOU'LL BE BRICKED
then if it says succesful, use "fastboot reboot". Then go back into bootloader.
then, flash stock recovery (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2158763)
after that, relock your device (command is "fastboot oem relock")
so after the RUU finished downloading, try to run it.
Any problems, I'll keep an eye on this thread

Thank you . I am now at the htc grey logo status.
Since I dont know what firmware is I am afraid to take the next step.
Whats the firmware you've talked about? Is it OS? like 4.2.2 OS zip file?

No, the firmware package for the HBoot, Radio, etc.
I assume you didn't flash it when going to 4.2.2?
Or did you take the official 4.2.2 update before?

No, I didn't flah firmware when going to 4.2.2.
When my phone is good, all I did is I just copied the 4.2.2 to the phone and install in the recovery status.
Then the 4.2.2 keeps restarting and then I deleted everything on the phone .

Okay, you still have 4.1.2 firmware then. In that case you can just reboot already and skip the first step

Thanks.
The second step, flash stock recovery, I downloaded the file and in the recovery folder there are many .imgs
Which one is the one I need?
and how do I do it? just shift+right click to cmd and fastboot flash recovery name.img?

okay, I have been browsing a while, but I unfortunately have no idea which one you could use.
HOWEVER,
I did see someone say you don't need stock recovery. So, try to just relock it and then flash the RUU.
You can always unlock it again if it doesn't work, so there isn't much of a risk

the problem here isn't the firmware he flashed the 4.2.2 rom, which uses the storage a bit different.
The problem he has is caused by the fact he didn't clear SD directly after flashing (needed if you jump from custom rom 4.1.2 to 4.2.2)
it could have been easy, but he can't boot into his rom, everything is gone. If he could boot it would be waaaaaaay easier, would only require a few ADB commands

OK, now I run the RUU, the phone is in the grey htc status,.It says gonna take 10 mins, hope it will be fine :victory:

no problem mate
good you're back.
before you flash 4.2.2, take the official OTA
or if you don't have it yet, first flash the 4.2.2 firmware (can be found in the ARHD thread) and then after the rom is done installing, wipe the sd card
Have fun with your One

[Q] 1,31 , no rom or adb

So basically the only thing working in fastboot
somehow i have managed to wipe everything off of my device so there is no rom installed what so ever...which means i am unable to turn on usb debugging to get adb working. I am also on 1.31 so the RUU method will not work. i am able to flash whatever recovery or Superuser i wish and root/unroot as i please.
the only solution i can think of would be to flash a signed stock zip using "fastboot update signedstock.zip" but the ones i found here -http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2368907 dont seem to work. i get errors like no "boot.img" or "does not contain android-info.txt"
any suggestions?

just a fyi you can use fastboot to flash a rom if you put it in the same folder as the platform tools folder of your sdk, All roms have a android-info.txt file that's how android knows how to flash what to the particular partition.
you can flash any zip file from fastboot as long as it has the android-info file
fastboot flash zip nameofzip.zip

Cannot load 'Access' bootloader

I am new to rooting and unlocking my new HTC One. I have had great pleasure in doing the same to my galaxy nexus in the past but this one has got me beat.
I have unlocked the bootloader via the HTC site. I have the latest drivers installed and showing OK in the device manager.
I am trying to load a TWRP on my phone without any succes. I can see it listed in the HTC tool kit I have. Its listed as 'SH****** fastboot device. I click install recovery but nothing happens.
I have tried it through the CMD prompt also but get the error 'cannot load'
Can someone please help as I'm desperate to root and install a custom Rom on my phone.
Thanks in advance.

Are you sure you have the right recovery .img file? What's the file size of the recovery? Should be around 8MB.

It should be its 8.43MB in size.

you're forgetting ".img" in the file name, "DIR" on your computer and then use the full file name of the recovery, that's all
EDIT: I think it's called "openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7.img" (unless you saved it under a different name)
so fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7.img
EDIT 2: just saw you folder
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.6.3.0.img

Thanks for that,I've finally been able to install a recovery and also install my first ROM as well.

By stock rom do you mean the Cricket (aka AIO Wireless) RUU?
If so:
1) (was reflash kernel... not needed as RUU will replace it)
2) If you're not on the stock recovery: reflash the stock recovery using fastboot
3) relock the bootloader fastboot oem lock
4)reboot phone in RUU mode : fastboot oem rebootRUU
5) Run the RUU application on your computer in administrator mode... it'll take about 15 minutes...
6) Your phone will restart and going into a factory reset(you'll lose all data) which can take awhile.
**Note:Removing the micro sdcard and sim are rumored to speed it up.
7)Let it do it's thing. Eventually it'll reboot with that familiar Cricket boot sound.
Or: If you mean the RAR file Kalisto2002 posted... it should just be a folder of TWRP backup files, put it in your microSD card under TWRP/Backups/*YourDeviceName*/

By stock rom do you mean the Cricket (aka AIO Wireless) RUU?
If so:
1) (was reflash kernel... not needed as RUU will replace it)
2) If you're not on the stock recovery: reflash the stock recovery using fastboot
3) relock the bootloader fastboot oem lock
4)reboot phone in RUU mode : fastboot oem rebootRUU
5) Run the RUU application on your computer in administrator mode... it'll take about 15 minutes...

Most of your information is correct however, you don't have to flash the stock recovery if you're planning on using an RUU to repair/return the phone to stock settings because the RUU will do that anyway you just have to relock the bootloader

Plug the phone into a computer and then make sure you're in fastboot mode and type fastboot oem lock
But be warned if you're not planning to use the RUU I wouldn't relock the bootloader if haven't read up on what you're doing because then you'll just get stuck on HBoot.

You need to download the Sprint RUU at this point and run it from a computer... One other thing, don't bother trying to use another carries SIM card in the phone, it's not going to happen. If the phone says Sprint you have to use Sprint.

You need to boot the phone into recovery and tap restore in order to use those files.

And that's all I have to do is click restore, I'm using TWRP recovery.

Yes tap restore and then tap on that file but make sure it's in zip format.

Ok I just did what you said to do but when I click restore there's nothing to select. the. Zip doesn't even show up. Any ideas?

Because you need to manually put that zip of files in the backup folder on your sd card and find the folder called TWRP then Backups then you'll see a folder called something similar to FA48X(and some numbers here) place the zip file in here then go try to restore.

Ok I figured it out I had to create a back up first before the backups fold could be found but everything seems to be in order thanks again.
