Guys I have big problems!
I have a htc one with 1.28.401.7 firmware, s-on, unrooted and unlocked bootloader. Hboot version is 1.44
I tried to install ota update which was corrupted. It screwed up the entire device! I could not go into recovery, i could not factory reset
I tried to reflash the RUU but it didnt work.
I tried installing custom recovery but it used to boot for a second and reboot to rom.
I have no idea what to do!
And now the device has gone dead!
Even if i connect it to the charger the notification light doesnt light up...holding power button doesnt help, power button+volume down doesnt help!
I tried rebooting in adb but it says error device offline!
Please please please tell me what i should do!
Thanks in advance!

Buddy I need a lot of help!
I will tell u what happened in steps:
1. As written in original post, i tried to install an ota update which got corrupted and it screwed up the entire phone
I couldnt boot into recovery, revone was not working, phone was getting hanged every now and then..
2. I had an unlocked bootloader at that time. I relocked the bootloader to flash the RUU again
3. The RUU failed, and the phone was stuck at the grey HTC screen with 4 exclamation marks on 4 corners
4. I unplugged the device and i got the bootloader screen which showed this message:

5. Long press of power, volume up, down nothing works
6. adb doesnt detect the device, but fastboot works
7. I saw your guide and tried to reinstall recovery but it gives this:

What should i do now!
I tried fastboot oem boot but it gives the green htc sign and gets stuck there...nothing moves ahead

1) Were you in rebootRUU while flashing like this(quoted post)? or in normal fastboot?
2) Have you tried "Case 2" of my guide?
ok, first calm down !!!
Edit.... you are s on.... Damnit this won't work here....
Now try this RUU. This will reset your entire phone.!
http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu-zip...1-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-zip/
And flash it in the RUU mode.... I think you are stuck in it...
fastboot flash zip "C:\path\firmware.zip"
It wil first give you an Error message... something like that:

Now you get a long output...

Ok, are you now still unlocked? Or locked? if you are locked... we can try things,.. but I don't think it will work...
And since you were locked.... there shouldn't be an danger of flashing the RUU... because it doesn't flash the bootloader...
hey @anibjoshi, you'll do better if you just have one thread open on your problems (see also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2630333).
stop panicking and start listening to the excellent advice @LibertyMarine is giving you and maybe you'll get your phone working again.
Maybe this will work for you: http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.nl/2013/10/fix-data-htc-one.html

re:
I had same problem few days ago, after that famous 4.4.2 update, my phone was screwed. I played a lot around with it, then I came to thingie that my /data partition was gone, so I had to recover it, and what Ronnymes in post before mine said, did help me a lot (link), I got my /data partition back, but you need to be really careful when working with all that...
Now since I read a bit this thread, I'd say you have problem not entering recovery at all (or at least just splashscreen of recovery) and then reboot. Or when you let your phone normal boot into OS, it ends rebooting in infinite loop.
I had same problem, you wouldn't believe what I did.
So to solve this problem I did next, but you must have working drivers on computer, so that it recognizes phone while it is in fastboot:
- Hold Vol - rocker and power button to enter bootloader
- select Fastboot with volume rockers and hit power button to enter it
- connect phone to PC while in Fastboot (it should change from Fastboot to Fastboot USB)
- open Command Prompt on you PC where you have all necessary files for fastboot and adb
- type (without quotes): "fastboot devices" just to be sure that device is attached, it should write down serial no of phone and fastboot after that
- now type: "fastboot oem lock" this will lock your bootloader
- after this do the process of unlocking bootloader by help of htcdev.com
- when you done unlocking bootloader flash whatever custom recovery to phone (I like CWM)
After these steps you should have working bootloader and recovery... now make sure that all your partitions on phone are in tact, be careful when doing that because not every HTC One has same addresses for all partitions, there is command for checking partition table on you device.
Cheers...

Sorry for replying so late...i was travelling to another city..
The device is stuck in rebootRUU
I tried flashing recovery in rebootRUU...was that the reason it failed?
I am relocked now...relocked, s-on
I will flash the zip twice as u instructed...do u have any other specific instructions regarding that flashing?
If the flashing fails for the second time, what do i do? will long press still brick the device?
I am downloading that zip right now...but it will take some time to download..so maybe i will wait for your reply on this before i flash
And i really really appreciate how much you are doing for me...u are a life saver
I just hope the device starts working soon
Thanks

Hmm, I hope this works... since you are hboot 1.44 I think this RUU should be a working one... I have here quoted what you have to do in case of an error:
Error handling strategies:IF IT SAYS "FAILED" do not immediately reboot the device If you reboot with a FAIL it could not boot up anymore! It could brick! If no flash is being accepted you have to find out what is causing the malfunction before rebooting your phone. Keep it alive while trying to figure out the error. It might be your cable, your USB ports (dont use hubs! Always straight-to-mainboard connections), it might be USB 3.0 which is not good yet, it might be bad configuration of your ADB and Fastboot... there are many possible sources for flash fails.
The least dangerous FAILED messages are listed below and are safe to reboot:
Safe to reboot / Flash didn't happen Errors (if you encounter one of them, you can just reboot. Nothing changed):
- 12 signature fail (unknown yet but safe to reboot)
- 23 parsing image fail (means something wrong with the image in the zip)
- 32 header error (means the zip couldn’t be read and unzipped properly)
- 41 Wrong Model ID (means its not the right device)
- 42 Wrong Customer ID (wrong CID means you gotta swap cid first as explained below)
- 90 hboot pre-update (means it only flashed hboot and you have to run the process again immediately to flash all other partitions WITHOUT a reboot inbetween).
- 99 UNKOWN (is not yet clear but safe to reboot, might indicate a defunct S-OFF or S-ON)
- 155 you did not lock your bootloader (Needs a relock for S-ON phones that want to update the firmware.)
In fact, if it aborts before the "(bootloader) start image[hboot] unzipping & flushing..." line it actually didn't write anything and you can probably just reboot. If you see it flashing stuff though (the stages after that line) and then it stops with a FAILED, chances are a little higher that something is now broken. In that case do NOT reboot but do as i said above.
For Error 12 “signature fail" do:
- might indicate that a signed firmware package is required. This would only happen with S-ON phones though.
For Error 23 "parsing image fail" do:
- change image names in the zip to stock image names like “hboot.img" or “radio.img" or whatever failed there....
For Error 32 "header error" do:
- Sorry i haven’t found the exact cause yet and don’t know a definite solution.
- Make sure there is only one . (dot) in the filename, before the extension. fastboot reads anything after the first dot it sees as the extension. If that is not zip, it fails.
- If that doesn’t help, you can also try: make the zip new with recommended settings, re-run the command, check your connections...
For Error 42 "Wrong Customer ID" and: 41 "Wrong Model ID" do:
Code:
fastboot getvar all
Read that output, take note of your CID and MID and then edit the "android-info.txt" in your firmware.zip accordingly (For Wrong MID change the MID in the text, for wrong CID add your CID to the text).
Alternative method for MID and CID errors:
go SuperCID. Do:
Code:
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
You can change back to any desired CID after a successfull firmware flash. Notice: this command only works on S-OFF phones (which you have already of course or else you wouldn't be here).
For “Error 90 hboot pre-update..." do:
- Run the same flash command again which you just ran (press arrow up on your keyboard to get to the previous command in console)
- Don’t reboot in-between! (It wouldn’t brick you but it would just make you run the flash command twice again)
- This might be caused by the newer encrypted RUU's, they need their hboot to be flashed first so it can then decrypt the rest of the ROM.zip. Look at an encrypted ROM.zip from a RUU, you will notice that you can mostly extract the hboot without decrypting the ROM.zip, but you can't extract much else.)
For “Error 99 UNKNOWN" do:
- Check with other zip’s if they work!
- Check if your S-OFF is correct
- Tell me if you find out what’s causing an unknown error here!
For “Error 155 relock bootloader" do:
- run the fastboot command “fastboot oem lock" - only applies to S-ON phones that want to update the firmware. There a relocked bootloader is required. This error won’t show on S-OFF phones.
- Error 155 can also mean that you need SuperCID. On a few occasions this was shown when the RUU/FUU refused to run because of wrong region lock.
For “Error 170 Check USB" do:
- Sometimes shown when running a RUU or FUU. Indicates issues with drivers or ADB/Fastboot binaries. One way to solve is to run the exe with the phone already in Fastboot mode. Else you will have to dig into your windows driver system and try to fix there. Best option: re-install HTC Sync manager. Also, avoid USB 3 ports (the blue ones) - they have a complete new driver stack and that doesn’t work with ADB and Fastboot.

Guys I have big problems!
I have a htc one with 1.28.401.7 firmware, s-on, unrooted and unlocked bootloader. Hboot version is 1.44
I tried to install ota update which was corrupted. It screwed up the entire device! I could not go into recovery, i could not factory reset
I tried to reflash the RUU but it didnt work.
I tried installing custom recovery but it used to boot for a second and reboot to rom.
I have no idea what to do!
And now the device has gone dead!
Even if i connect it to the charger the notification light doesnt light up...holding power button doesnt help, power button+volume down doesnt help!
I tried rebooting in adb but it says error device offline!
Please please please tell me what i should do!
Thanks in advance!

This can be very hard to recover and I dare say it's nearly impossible via a forum, best would be to have the phone in my hands if I was to help here.
However, since you did almost nothing bad except the unlock, I'd try to talk to HTC customer support, then try to get your case elevated so a higher support office can waive off the bills you'd get from the service center.
Arguments:
The device got messed up from an ota, which is a safe process designed to not harm the device. Any mishap there would normally be covered under warranty. Now, you'd admit that you unlocked, be honest, don't lie, but also point out that you did not even root the device. Neither did you touch Security.
So, in this case, there is no reasonable argument to deny you warranty.
Although legally you agreed to losing warranty entitlement when unlocking.

- 90 hboot pre-update (means it only flashed hboot and you have to run the process again immediately to flash all other partitions WITHOUT a reboot inbetween).
- 99 UNKOWN (is not yet clear but safe to reboot, might indicate a defunct S-OFF or S-ON)
- 155 you did not lock your bootloader (Needs a relock for S-ON phones that want to update the firmware.)
In fact, if it aborts before the "(bootloader) start image[hboot] unzipping & flushing..." line it actually didn't write anything and you can probably just reboot. If you see it flashing stuff though (the stages after that line) and then it stops with a FAILED, chances are a little higher that something is now broken. In that case do NOT reboot but do as i said above.
For Error 12 “signature fail" do:
- might indicate that a signed firmware package is required. This would only happen with S-ON phones though.
For Error 23 "parsing image fail" do:
- change image names in the zip to stock image names like “hboot.img" or “radio.img" or whatever failed there....
For Error 32 "header error" do:
- Sorry i haven’t found the exact cause yet and don’t know a definite solution.
- Make sure there is only one . (dot) in the filename, before the extension. fastboot reads anything after the first dot it sees as the extension. If that is not zip, it fails.
- If that doesn’t help, you can also try: make the zip new with recommended settings, re-run the command, check your connections...
For Error 42 "Wrong Customer ID" and: 41 "Wrong Model ID" do:
Code:
fastboot getvar all
Read that output, take note of your CID and MID and then edit the "android-info.txt" in your firmware.zip accordingly (For Wrong MID change the MID in the text, for wrong CID add your CID to the text).
Alternative method for MID and CID errors:
go SuperCID. Do:
Code:
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
You can change back to any desired CID after a successfull firmware flash. Notice: this command only works on S-OFF phones (which you have already of course or else you wouldn't be here).
For “Error 90 hboot pre-update..." do:
- Run the same flash command again which you just ran (press arrow up on your keyboard to get to the previous command in console)
- Don’t reboot in-between! (It wouldn’t brick you but it would just make you run the flash command twice again)
- This might be caused by the newer encrypted RUU's, they need their hboot to be flashed first so it can then decrypt the rest of the ROM.zip. Look at an encrypted ROM.zip from a RUU, you will notice that you can mostly extract the hboot without decrypting the ROM.zip, but you can't extract much else.)
For “Error 99 UNKNOWN" do:
- Check with other zip’s if they work!
- Check if your S-OFF is correct
- Tell me if you find out what’s causing an unknown error here!
For “Error 155 relock bootloader" do:
- run the fastboot command “fastboot oem lock" - only applies to S-ON phones that want to update the firmware. There a relocked bootloader is required. This error won’t show on S-OFF phones.
- Error 155 can also mean that you need SuperCID. On a few occasions this was shown when the RUU/FUU refused to run because of wrong region lock.
For “Error 170 Check USB" do:
- Sometimes shown when running a RUU or FUU. Indicates issues with drivers or ADB/Fastboot binaries. One way to solve is to run the exe with the phone already in Fastboot mode. Else you will have to dig into your windows driver system and try to fix there. Best option: re-install HTC Sync manager. Also, avoid USB 3 ports (the blue ones) - they have a complete new driver stack and that doesn’t work with ADB and Fastboot.
Thanks @Sneakyghost for writing these excellent error handling strat.

When I tried to flash the RUU.exe, it did not work...it gave me the error that I have posted...can you tell me what that error meant?
Cuz i feel i will get the same error when I run the RUU.zip
So if the same thing happens I can be better ready for it
Sneakyghost said:
This can be very hard to recover and I dare say it's nearly impossible via a forum, best would be to have the phone in my hands if I was to help here.
However, since you did almost nothing bad except the unlock, I'd try to talk to HTC customer support, then try to get your case elevated so a higher support office can waive off the bills you'd get from the service center.
Arguments:
The device got messed up from an ota, which is a safe process designed to not harm the device. Any mishap there would normally be covered under warranty. Now, you'd admit that you unlocked, be honest, don't lie, but also point out that you did not even root the device. Neither did you touch Security.
So, in this case, there is no reasonable argument to deny you warranty.
Although legally you agreed to losing warranty entitlement when unlocking.

I dont have warranty..lol
Also, the device did boot up later...but still couldnt enter recovery or anything..but still could boot to rom
I was unlocked so i relocked it and ran an ruu.exe
It failed and now the phone is stuck in rebootRUU
adb doesnt work but fastboot does
Does that make my chances better? *hoping
Fastboot reboot
That will get your device out of ruu mode.
Let's us know if it does

I tried that...the device just goes blank and then comes back to the rebootRUU screen
I guess thats all thats left in the device...everything else is gone
I am unable to write any thing via bootloaders (i.e. recovery, zip, ruu etc) i have also tried to restore my phone via RUU...setup is shutting down the device but do not boot it up again in bootloader so the setup could proceed with flashing the RUU (as it suppose to)... i m uploading the cmd screen shot for your kind perusal, kindly help me out as well please...
these steps i have tried as yet:
tried (fastboot flash recovery twrp.img)
Tried Flashing OTA firmware (fastboot update firmware.zip)
Tried RUU.exe setup
i can not even flash recovery... whenever i attempt to do so it gives an error as attached!
seems like some sort of security has been activated but can be a hardware issue as well... Please HELP!
Please advise what should i do or what can be done in this matter

Just a couple of shots in the dark.. disable any antivirus also check you have latest fastboot maybe download latest android sdk which will have it and try again.
Try another pc or cable.

are you using USB 3 port/hub, check Device Manager connections... if the "main" (internal) port-structure is USB 3 based, then that could be the problem.
PS: and what version does adb devices give?

what was the last thing the phone had on it ? I see the bootloader is unlocked so did it already have a custom recovery ? custom rom ? Rooted ?
have you turned the phone completely OFF holding the powerbutton and volume up and down for 2 min ?
did you try a factory reset with stock recovery ?
when you tried the RUU.exe what was the error and what file did you try ?

thats how i messed my set up: i was on TWRP 2.6.3.3 which was working perfectly fine then i thought it would be better if i'd flash a latest recovery so flashed 2.7.0.4 then i tried to flash latest build of insertcoin with that messed up recovery which got me stuck on 7% while flashing the rom, so i restarted by set after waiting for 5 minutes or so... then i tried going in to recovery again and tried to do a factory data reset to reflash the rom... recovery stuck on factory data rest n made me reboot my set... since then the situation is same for me
i did the 2 minutes trick, since my phone is not hard bricked so its just making the set booting again and again in fastboot mode thats it!
yes i did factory reset but with twrp then i got stuck at where i m now... plus i m unable to flash anything on emmc since then...
when i tried RUU.exe the setup shut my phone down but do not restart it in fastboot mode (how it should) i tried to boot my phone manually but didnt help...
Please advice any thing else
2.7.0.4 is for Sprint
Can you force the phone into fastboot oem rebootRUU and try and flash from their?
you can extract the signed Rom.zip from the RUU and flash it that way
the Rom.zip will be in c:\users\yourusername\appdata\local\temp\somerandomfolderthatwasjustcreated (sort by date)(also you have to view hidden folders to see appdata in the user folder)
mine was here "C:\Users\Cliff\AppData\Local\Temp\{A3096E6D-C55A-4EA1-B6B1-1E95174B190C}"

Hello there! First: Thanks for every answer in return - I'm currently a little bit in a pitch...and appreciate any help.
My problem is: my HTC One is currently stuck in a bootloop, due do some (my own) failures, when I tried to use a ROM.
In my own idioty I didnt made any backups or anything else.
Long story short - I would like to try to install a RUU for my version, but there is absolutely noone.
I'm on version-main 1.29.111.16 with the CID T-MOB101 and HBoot 1.44. I tried to search everywhere possible for a download,
even tried to personal message a few people who maybe could have the needed RUU, but so far no answers / no luck.
Tried to get S-OFF and use another RUU, but whatever I do, I cannot see my device under "adb devices". Tried everything /latest driver, cables and so on) so far but it absolutely wont show under adb and so I cannot see any other way to get S- OFF. Thats why I rely on the RUU for my version. So im here to ask, if someone else could give me a hint on where to find this RUU...or any tips on getting my ONE S-off. But like I said, I guess I tried almost everything I have read about (countless hours on google and xda- forum).
I know, I may write complete and utter nonsense - toying with my precious phone was like the biggest failure in my last few months and I regret it. :l
Thanks in advance!

First of all, your drivers are missing or outdated, download HTC sync manager from the HTC site and install, then remove HTC sync from your computer, just leaving the drivers.
Next question is do you have usb debugging enabled on the phone in developer options ?
If you can't see developer options then goto menu, settings, about, software information, more, then tap build number 7 times, it should say you are now a developer and you will have a new menu in settings called developer options where you can enable usb debugging.
When you type adb devices it should list your phone's serial number not just say list of devices attached.
It could also be that you need to update your adb and fastboot, I had to do it recently after getting this phone, after using the same fastboot and adb for years.

Again sorry for the late reply, business struck again. :l
To your points: Already installed the latest HTC drivers from their homepage more than four times so far. Im pretty sure I have the latest version and after installing, I deinstalled the Sync Manager, like you told me to do. Still no changes.
I cannot see any developer options, simply because I can't get any further than the bootscreen. Im stuck within a bootloop.
Also I got the latest fastboot and adb from the (SDK- Manager) Android Developer Tools- Bundle. That's why I am so clueless about my phone not getting recognized by my PC with "adb devices". Strange thing is, I get the ID of my phone in "fastboot devices"...
Later this da I will try to connect my phone to my new, clean Laptop, with the lastest HTC Drivers and adb/fastboot. Maybe this will help.
Thanks so far!

ADB commands only works from a booted OS with usb debugging ON or from custom recovery. So ADB will never output your device is connected if you are not in the OS or in custom recovery. From bootloader, use FASTBOOT commands

This one is a custom rom (reset rom). You can't flash custom rom from fastboot. You can only flash custom rom from custom recovery.
from fastboot, all you can do is
flashing a custom recovery (with bootloader unlocked)
flashing a RUU.zip in ruu mode
flashing a firmware.zip in ruu mode
all roms (except RUUs) are flashed from custom recovery, including guru reset roms.
btw, there is no RUU for your phone.
unlock bootloader
flash twrp recovery 2.6.3.3
download and save this file to the same folder you have adb and fastboot in
open a cmd prompt from you fastboot/adb folder and boot your phone in bootloader mode (fastboot usb)
Code:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
adb push the guru reset rom to your /sdcard/ from twrp recovery
download this guru reset rom: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-111-3-zip/ and save it to your adb/fastboot folder
boot phone in twrp recovery
open a cmd prompt form your adb/fastboot folder
Code:
adb push guru_reset_m7_2.24.111.3.zip /sdcard/
wait for the file to transfer (5-10 min, there is no progress bar, just wait until adb says it complete)
install the reset rom using twrp
Wow! Thanks a lot!
After unlocking my bootloader again I was able to get into recovery. From there it was easy going to install the Guru.zip via sideload ("Install zip" didnt work for some reason, said something similiar to "Couldn't mount /sdcard/". But sideload worked fine.). Updated everything and my phone runs now like it always had!
Again: really, really thanks a bunch! Thought I somehow ruined my phone, but thanks to you all I got it done. I really appreciate your effort in helping me! You guys are awesome.
Greetings,
Linte
PS: I won't do anything stupid with my phone again, learnd this the hard way.
I was running my rom fine an hour ago, until I decided to try and reboot into recovery to make a backup. Instead of recovery, I ended up in bootloader. I then tried to enter recovery through the menu. It rebooted into bootloader and flashed the "3 Skating Androids" in the middle of the screen. I then tried to simply restart, and it did the same. All buttons did this. I then tried to run the RUU, and lock the bootloader from command prompt. I entered "fastboot oem lock", and it returned the following:
Code:
(bootloader) [ERR] Cmd18 polling status timed out, MCI_STATUS: 0x4C2000

I am unable to relock the bootloader, therefore I am unable to return to stock. I can't boot, and I have no way of recovering. I am sick and tired of these situations with my phone. What on earth could I possibly do to fix this ****?!
Your bootloader is unlocked correct? Do you have S-off? You can flash the RUU without re locking the bootloader if you have S-off.

Thanks for trying to help. But my device appears to softbricked. I don't have access to my operating system, so S-OFF is not even remotely possible. Anyone else have any possible solutions?
I am pretty sure the term soft bricked means you can still boot into your bootloader. Hold down the power and volume down buttons until it gets there, mine took 20+ seconds when I was soft bricked. From your bootloader you can flash a recovery and then you should be able to get S-off. If you can't get into recovery or the bootloader I don't know what else to tell you.

Unfortunately I cannot boot into recovery. Every time I hit an option, the bootloader restarts. I will try leaving my phone turned off for the next day, to see if draining the circuits does anything.

If you can get into the bootloader you should be good to flash a recovery through fastboot. Try looking at this link, get all the correct files for your phone and computer, and look towards the end of the page where it talks about download via fastboot, this is what you need to do. http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/164 . After you get the TWRP installed, you will be able to sideload a rom from there.

As I said earlier, I am unable to boot into recovery. I've tried CWM, TWRP, and stock. Every time I try to use a command, I get an error. I get "FAILED (remote: image update error)" every time I try to flash a recovery. It's like my fastboot mode is broken. I also tried booting directly into recovery with "fastboot boot twrp.img" but this didn't work, and just froze the device.

What stock recovery are you using ?
Here's the steps I would take
from bootloader choose shut down
wait about 5 min reboot to the bootloader fastboot USB
then fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
now flash Stock recovery
fastboot flash recovery stock_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
now enter stock recovery (power + volume up after you choose it in the bootloader)
when you see the menu choose factory reset
now start over with the custom recovery
Unlock the bootloader at HTCDEV
then from fastboot USB
Flash recovery TWRP 2.6.3.3
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then sideload this Rom to your phone
http://www.androidrevolution.org/downloader/download.php?file=One_5.11.401.10_odexed.zip
TWRP / Advanced / ADB Sideload - swipe to sideload
From PC adb / fastboot folder
you use
adb sideload name-of-rom.zip
make sure the rom is in the same folder as adb / fastboot

:silly: No my bootloader is not locked. It says *** UNLOCKED *** right on the screen. Just because I'm a junior member doesn't mean I'm a noob. I have tried many commands, including "fastboot oem lock" but nothing works. Read my first post again. Let me clarify for everyone! My bootloader is not fully fuctional. I am able to check barcode, and shutdown. Any fastboot commands don't seem to really work (with exception of "fastboot devices," and "fastboot oem unlock_token token.bin"). I've been trying to relock my device, so I can run the RUU.exe, but I this gives me an error. I tried unlocking my device for a second time, and it says unlock successful, but I don't get the warranty, and prompt on screen. I've only had this phone for about 4 months, and I'd like to get a little more life out of it before turning to ebay to find another.

I wasn't implying your were dumb ..i was pointing out that your phone acts the same as one with a locked bootloader.
the bootloader partition seems corrupt, fixing it is out of my league. Maybe @nkk71 or @alray has some advice

like cIsA said, it looks like your eMMC is corrupted, at least the partition where your bootloader is. Ive never seen that kind of error before (SD_HW_ERR] read data fail in CMD18) so I don't have any idea how to help you. Probably re-flashing the firmware or a complete ruu will fix it but its not possible with a non-relockable bootloader + S-ON.
sorry

You should wait to see what nkk71 think about your situation.
Code:
(bootloader) [ERR] Cmd18 polling status timed out, MCI_STATUS: 0x4C2000
(bootloader) [ERR] sdcc_command: sdcc_poll_status error, rc: 2
(bootloader) [[COLOR="Red"]SD_HW_ERR[/COLOR]] [COLOR="red"]read data fail in CMD18[/COLOR]
(bootloader) CMD18: cmd failed
(bootloader) [SD_HW_ERR] SD: Read data fail..
only speculating here but I think that CMD is a master/slave protocol used to send commands to the eMMC chip (I might be wrong, I'm not an expert in this matter) So this could mean you have a defective or corrupted eMMC. that would explain why you got these error codes and that you are not able to do anything useful from the bootloader.
Maybe a jtag/riffbox flash could fix this....

Sorry for the late reply, but yep, i think it's time for a new phone.
from what i've seen (and/or):
* "image update error"
* unable to relock bootloader
* "fastboot oem rebootRUU" doesn't actually go to RUU mode (gives some kind of CMDxx / SD error)
== fried phone
sorry to be the bearer of bad news

There's no way I can repair it? Jtag is jot an option?
Hello gays! My HTC One M7 is Hongkong CHT edition.
This is the PIC took before flashed RUU. I faced "commandline over flow" problem.
"fs1.d-h.st/view/iCnH/00197/1.png"
I've tried the "Unbrick project BETA" from the forum and flashed bcb recovery to my device, but neither worked.
Finally I decided to flash an official RUU to my M7.
First I relocked it. Then I flashed the RUU "PN07IMG_M7_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_hTC_Asia_HK_7.18.708.2_Radio_4T.35.3218.29_10.33R.1718.01L_release_420559_signed.zip" from the RUU collection thread.
But in the process of flashing RUU I suddenly kicked off the power of my desktop PC !!!
Now it has became like this.
"fs1.d-h.st/view/vQn3/00197/2.png"
It is totally bricked. It will only boot into fastboot and cannot do any further action except "power down". Other will just make the phone hang. Fastboot mode can be detect by computer.
Below is the commandline output of my phone:
C:>fastboot getvar all
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.61.0000
getvar:all FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))
finished. total time: 9.453s
htc_fastboot finished. total time: 9.609s
C:>fastboot oem rebootRUU
...
FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))
finished. total time: 39.609s
htc_fastboot finished. total time: 39.703s
The htc_fastboot command "oem rebootRUU" and "getvar all" will make the phone stucked and I have to long press power button to shutdown
Now I cant even make the phone get into RUU mode! But I can boot into hboot with volume- and power button.
What's the proble? How could I do to recover my phone?

When using a RUU many critical partitions on the phone are flashed. Disturbing this process by any means (like shutting down your computer) can hard brick your phone. If the RUU was in the process of flashing a critical partition (like the bootloader for example) when it was interrupted, it might be unrecoverable. The fact that even the "fastboot getvar all" isn't displayed totally doesn't look good at all. Did you tried to unlock the bootloader again? (It will probably fail but worth a try...). Otherwise you'll might be able to unbrick it using a J-tag service but if you can't boot in ruu mode or you can't unlock the bootloader there is nothing you can do yourself, sorry.
