Hey,
I'm completely lost at this point. I recently got a new HTC One from Bell in Canada. Everything was fine before I decided to root it. I followed all the steps thoroughly in Mike's guide and everything was fine. My phone was rooted, unlocked and had a custom recovery. I ran into a problem when I tried to place a Custom ROM onto my phone. First, Windows kept giving me the error that the device stopped responding when I was trying to place the .zip onto the virtual SD card. Then it began showing a progress bar which did not move at all and the file wasn't being transferred. I've tried to troubleshoot through several other threads but unfortunately found no answers.
HTC One displays that I have zero available storage in the "Storage" section of the Settings app. I have tried to transfer files with both HTC Sync Manager and uninstalling it while just using the Windows drivers. I have also tried to do it with USB debugging on and off.
I'm hoping someone can help me, thank you in advance.
settings app?
just right click the file and select send to htc one
I can't. Like I said in my original post, Windows either says the device isn't responding or the progress bar just doesn't move.

For now, doesn't matter as long as I can transfer files to and from my phone. Preferrably custom rom.
I formatted the SD card but I still have the same issue.

Did the sideload on the custom ROM, it's saying it's flashing the new ARHD ROM but the progress bar is not moving.
i had the same problem. I used the all in one tool kit and switched from cwm to twrp and **** went back to normal. loaded up and kicked ass since i flashed a sense kernel like a dumb ass and lost all button functions until the battery died so i can boot to recovery.

Hey everyone. I know I totally screwed up. So I got my Phone today. HTC One from Sprint. I went to unlock bootloader. Success, but when I went to install a custom rom I went to do a wipe, I guess I wiped the wrong thing. So now I don't have a OS, and stuck in TWRP because it won't load. Is there a way to push the rom to the phone and install from there? Or do I need a RUU? Or best bet is try to get a new phone?
Bummer bro. All I can say is I hope your phone is nearly out of battery. Mine did this last night, just gotta wait until it dies, then press the power button while holding the volume down key. Don't screw this up, you only got one chance, then you have to let it die again. Haha non-removable battery problems. :/ lol
Totally didn't read your post correctly. You can flash the OTG (On the Go) comparable recovery using the adb and then put a ROM on a flashdrive and use an OTG cable to connect the usb drive to your phone and flash the rom

ADB push the rom onto the phone. Did you even flash the rom you put on your phone in the first place?
I'm not 100% sure if this is available on TWRP, but I know in CWM you can flash from sideload. If there's an option for that, just plug your phone into your computer, select it, and run adb sideload <file>.
You could always use one of the RUUs to go back to stock, but you'll have to unlock again.

Hi,
I used Hasoon's all in one tool to successfully unlock the bootloader on my One, and flashed a recovery (TWRP).
When I went to install a kernel (Bulletproof) I messed up and installed the boot.img file from bulletproof instead of loading it through recovery (dumb i know).
Now my phone just constantly reboots itself, it gets to the HTC splash screen for less than a second, and then reboots again. Holding down power + volume down does nothing either.
Can anyone help or suggest anything please?

Try holding just volume down. Do you know how to use ADB? if you time it right a fastboot reboot-bootloader will get you to bootloader or you can do it through the all in one toolkit you will have to close the first window at the right time and it will send the command for you.

Well looks like it's time to learn.
First thing that just might make this easy. In the all in one under commands there is Erase Cache. Click on that hit the ok button and then close the first window. Next windows will say waiting for device now with a little luck upon one of the reboots it will catch the device and wipe the cache. That should then allow you to hold volume down and get into the bootloader. If not let me know and we will proceed to option 2
Read through those threads and the first one was the closest to my problem.
Tried the Boot into Bootloader and Erase Cache commands from the All in One tool and both just give me "device not detected" errors. Tried them multiple times during the phone booting up, but its not even being detected by my PC.
I can't even turn the bloody thing off it just sits there on my desk buzzing every time to restarts itself.

Sorry watching the google IO man some cool new things are coming :good:
Ok now down to business. I am guessing your computer is all set up and you have drivers as you already installed a recovery. So do to the all in one toolkit then go into the data folder once there hold down Ctrl and shift and right click on empty space. You will get a option to Open Command Windows Here do that. A black dos command box will pop up. type
fastboot reboot-bootloader
it should say waiting for device
Nevermind that's not going to work. Try this when your phone is starting up hold the power button until screen goes black then immediately hold down volume down and don't let go. Try with the phone plugged in to computer and without

I left the phone in the office overnight and it must have drained the battery enough to kill the boot loop. Was able to get to the bootloader screen this morning when I checked before leaving for work.
So reflash recovery you think or should I factory reset it and start again?

I would reflash custom recovery do it a couple times and after that wipe the cache. Power down the device and then turn it back on and go to recovery.
Make sure it has a decent charge on it like 30%, 50 would be best.

Use CWM because at this point you are going to have to sideload the ROM. So find the ROM you want and download it. Then rename it to rom.zip then from the all in one go to side load a rom and in clockwork mod go to the same thing might be under advanced.

Ok cool, will try that when I get home this afternoon. At this stage I just wanted to put the Bulletproof kernel on for the improved battery life and sweep functions, or do I need to install a custom ROM as well? I've got the Bulletproof zip file on my PC so am I renaming that?

Installing a custom kernel on top of an unmodified stock ROM is a very bad idea. You don't have to go full custom like TrickDroid or ARHD, but there are rooted/somewhat modified stock ROMs available to use.

If that's what you originally did then that's what caused this to happen. You can not install a custom kernel on a stock Rom. Unremarked is 100% correct. Also check the Rom to make sure it supports a custom kernel. Trick droid is nice coupled with a custom kernel you can use the HTC logo for a menu button

That is, stupidly, what I did. Wasn't aware I couldn't install a kernel on stock ROM.
So....
From here install a custom ROM via sideload through the all in one tool?
Then install the new kernel?
Been doing some more reading and I think I'll go with the Renovate ROM, so I should just need to install a recovery again and then sideload the ROM?

Thank you nullkill, looks like the latest build of the ROM doesn't support Bulletproof kernel anymore (or its unstable if used) so I'll just flash the ROM I think, or do I need to install the stock kernel after flashing the ROM too?
Sorry for all the questions :cyclops:

No problem. You should be able to flash the rom and be good. If you have any issues make sure to wipe the cache.
Flashed Renovate and all back up and running now, thanks for the help and suggestions.
Hello all and thank you in advance for any help you can provide. I'll try not to post a wall of text.
In a nutshell the problem I'm having is - I cannot see my zip files in the stock recovery console under the sd update section. In fact it's like the sad card isn't seen at all. I've taken a zip of cwm, placed it on an sd card, inserted the card, boot into recovery and no zip file is seen. What I'd like is any and all details (perhaps a short tutorial with links to the right files) on how to do this.
Why? - well here's where it gets funny. Old android phone of mine I thought to be dead suddenly springs to life (sweet). It has a pattern lock which I don't remember (not sweet). Tried using google account, apparently I used a different one than the one I've been using for years... The short of it is I'd like to get my data off it or at least see what's there. I've heard I can flash cwm through the recovery console, then via cwm, flash a pattern lock reset (in theory). So I figured I'd give it a go. I hope I explained this well. Any help you guys can provide will be awesome. Thanks!
More info on the phone - no it's not setup for debugging mode. No I cannot access it via the PC. So adb and Odin are out. Also I know I can factory reset easily - not looking to do that though. Thanks again!
The stock recovery only sees the "Internal" SD card, so anything you put on your actual SD will not be detected by the recovery. Download a file manager from google play store. I don't remember which one I used in particular, but try Root Browser or ES File Manager. Copy the file from your External SD card into the Internal SD and try again. Hope this helps.
But... you say you don't know the password to the phone. I'm not sure what can be done besides factory reset...

I don't think you can flash cwm with stock recovery. If you aren't able to flash via Odin in download mode you are pretty short on options.

You can actually. That's how I did it. When I got this phone the USB to PC connection never worked, only for charging. I was disappointed that I'd be stuck with stock ROM, but I was able to install CWM via Stock Recovery.

Thanks for confirming. Sucks that the OP can't get it onto the internal, then.
If you google "a creative way to bypass pattern lock on android" the first result will show you where I got the idea from. (sorry, would have put a link here but the site won't let me)
that being said, unless the OP there is pulling our legs, it should be completely possible to access the external SD card from stock recovery as that's how he described he did it. now I don't know if stock recovery is the same on all Samsung android devices, but I would assume it likely is, or is at least close.
I'm almost sure if I had another t679 that I could get into, that I could format the card and have it work on the locked one. not sure if it's worth it to me though since at this point I'm mainly pursuing this for personal knowledge and notoriety lol. BTW thanks to all that provided insight thus far. here's to hoping someone has some additional information for me.
Hi everyone
After a lot of reading i decided to install a ROM. Now i was able to try to but none of them worked, so i ve been trying now for 3 days. I think i did it all as stated in this forums, it launched but never go to really open the OS, used to get stuck at the motorola or nexus logos or what ever logo from the different ROMs i downloaded.
I was able to go back to the original ROM but today im not being able to do so...
What can i do? Im at recovery and im able to restore boot but at system it says:Error while restoring /system!
I had it backedup at pc so i have also removed the one at sd card and tried with the one from PC.
What can i do (that doesnt involve getting another phone)
You can try RSDLite to flash back stock ROM just be careful and flash right ROM, otherwise you can brick your phone. You can't flash custom ROMs with RSD.

Boot the phone into bootloader/fastboot?
You have an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery installed? I assume you have both since you were trying to install custom ROMs.
I have tried to the fastboot... im trying AP fastboot and theres where i am stuck right now.
Yes custome recovery and unlocked bootloader there. I had the phone moved to another couple of roms but the never loaded correctly so i went back to my original ROM, i tried a few other ROMs and none worked so this time i try to go back but it doesnt come back anymore... :laugh:
Try downloading PhilzAdvanced CWM Recovery. It is based off the latest CWM and should be able to flash your backups or ROMS. Maybe not your backups unless you made them with a CWM based recovery, but it should get you booted up.

1. Read the Myth Tools OP
2. Download Myth Tools
3. Download Philz CWM
4. Download a stock fastboot
5. Place the fastboot zip and the extracted recovery/cwm.img in their respected folders
6. Run Myth's executable and follow the instructions
7. If that doesn't work then read the faqs here and in the RAZR HD forums, all your questions have been answered already.
Still with same issue...
Phone is not recognized by the computer (tried 3 different laptops)
Cannot download the Drivers as its an automated process that begins when you connect the phone...
Does anyone knows an alternative to install AHD drivers ?

If you made a backup of your stock after rooting try flashing that and then hooking your phone up to your pc

It finally works
It works... i think somehow the recovery stopped working at some point... now with Philz phone was recognized by pc and i was able to use Myth tools to do the job. I think this will be my last Motorola...
Things to highlight:
1 i did read a lot before doing anything, still somehow screwed up, did read lots before asking here, still needed to ask... got answers, still needed to ask more... it was fun as everyone at work said: " its bricked fool buy a new one and stop playing to be good at something" but hell yeah its fixed!
2 i will try again to install another rom, i wont give up damn it!
3 i might begin with my wife Note 1, its old so its ok to brick it ha ha ha
4 damn it guys you are cool... wish i were 10% of you guys!
5 I think instead of all those different options out there we should recommend only to use the myth tools, its a complete package and its easy to use even with examples for newbies like me.
Again thanks and questions on friday after i brick it again e he he he...
The other stuff is there so you can understand what the automated stuff is actually doing.

Ok so i have started the process again. I cant tell what i am doing wrong. I have flashed 2 different roms and none worked... its like im missing something.
I root the device, unlock bootloader... set the recovery with cwm... flash the rom... and it goes to moto logo and then black screen... am i missing something?
I did the exact same for the stock rom and it did work... also i did it all exactly the same using now myth tools... so any ideas? Should i leave the phone alone because its just simply not going to work or am i missing anything?
I have an HTC once M8 HK edition. Running the philz version of cwm. I tried to install a wifi hotspot enabling zip file and this caused my device to be unable to access the sprint LTE network at all. since the .zip was flashed, the factory data reset through cwm wont fix the problem. I tried reinstalling the rom but now cannot get past the HTC dev only startup screen. Fastboot/ recovery options are however still accessible. I think the problem could be easily solved by flashing a backup via sdcard. However, I do not have a working backup for cwm. If someone has a solution or a backup I could use that would put me back to cwm stock that would be awesome!
Hold power+volume up. When the screen goes black release power+volume up and hold the volume down button until the bootloader menu appears. Load a ROM onto your SD card, then boot into recovery from the bootloader menu. Reflash your ROM.

oh sorry for the misunderstanding. I'm also having an issue because since i updated my computer to windows 8.1 my htc drivers are no longer working to allow usb debugging. So far I'm having to operate purely from an sdcard. Is it possible to flash a twrp or a stock rom from an sd card and if so could you walk me through it? I've tried finding updated drivers, but cannot find a working link. Im currently downloading the odexed hk rom from androidcentral to see if that fixes things.

Download correct recovery.img from Teamwin then find the correct android.txt and zip the two in a folder which you will name 0P6BIMG put on root of external sdcard and boot to bootloader, itll recognize the zip folder and ask you to update, press vol up to update it, reboot phone, remove zip from external sdcard and then boot to recovery

These are the drivers I use and recommend.
I would be kinda leary of using roms from another site...not because they might be bad but because you will most likely get better support here on XDA if something goes wrong.

I have an HTC once M8 HK edition. Running the philz version of cwm. I tried to install a wifi hotspot enabling zip file and this caused my device to be unable to access the sprint LTE network at all. since the .zip was flashed, the factory data reset through cwm wont fix the problem. I tried reinstalling the rom but now cannot get past the HTC dev only startup screen. Fastboot/ recovery options are however still accessible. I think the problem could be easily solved by flashing a backup via sdcard. However, I do not have a working backup for cwm. If someone has a solution or a backup I could use that would put me back to cwm stock that would be awesome!

First off are you s-off? If you're s-on I know what your problem is.
Secondly the recovery of your choice is fine. It's highly unlikely that that is the cause of the issue.

I managed to get a version of 4.4.4 installed via sdcard but it is not a good version. it still has a lot of quirks. namely
it stays on the "htc powered by android" screen until it fully boots and you unlock it (which is rather difficult as it is on the wrong screen) and then the screen times out (it does not allow you to manually shut off the screen with the power button until first timeout). After the timeout everything is normal from what I can see barring that the wifi will not turn. Also I believe I am s-off.

Sounds like you need to update your firmware to the latest version, along with your Hboot.

Thank you guys so much for your patience. I have confirmed that I am s-on (thought I went s-off but I guess I never got around to it). I've downloaded the firmware you recommended. I will be switching to s-off and updating hboot/ firmware within the next few days. Hopefully that fixes things. Thanks again!
