[Q] HTC One dead!

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
What is the state of the device and how do i fix it?
Thanks a lot

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:

After that INSTANTLY reflash it by using the same command(DON'T REBOOT LONG AS THERE WAS AN ERROR BY FLASHING HBOOT I WOULD INEVITABLY AND INSTANTANEOUSLY BRICK YOUR DEVICE!):
Code:

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
Good luck!

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.​

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

Can not write anything via Fastboot and Phone is in Bootloop :( kindly Help!

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!

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.

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}"

RUU Flashing Doesn't Work... Help!

Okay, this is a pretty interesting situation. I rooted my dad's gunmetal m8 and everything was fine until the OTA update came out. Despite me telling him not to download it, he does anyway and the phone tries to apply the update. He then had a persisted "there is an update available" notification, so he decided to take it to the Sprint store instead of calling me... now it's too late.
I have no idea what they did at the store, but now the phone just reboots every 3 minutes or so. I've tried restoring the NANDROID backup, reflashing new roms, flashing the stock recovery, flashing new versions of TWRP, but nothing, I mean nothing works. Every time I try to do anything to the phone, as soon as I reboot it, the phone is IN THE SAME STATE IT WAS BEFORE THE OEM UPDATE. It's like a weird version of groundhogs day.
Best I can tell is that the bootloader got corrupted and it keeps flashing the same copy of the old rom again and again and again on reboot, so I can do absolutely nothing with this. Whenever I try to flash a new ruu, I try fastboot oem rebootRUU, but when I do, the phone just reboots and repeats the cycle.
Is there any thing I can do, or is this thing a paperweight?
Thanks in advance.

Latest RUU is an exe I'm pretty sure.

Did you HTC unlock it? If so try locking it and ruuing.

Doesn't work. The phone just reboots and everything is as it was. The strangest thing is that the phone data doesn't persist after reboot. For example, I tried moving otacert.zip to otacert.zip.bak in the etc/security folder. Once I reboot, everything is back to the way it was (yes, I already mounted /system as rw)

usb debugging has nothing to do with the bootloader, adb or fastboot, it is only required to be on when you want to mod something or control your phone using adb commands inside a booted rom, as you cant boot, then that's not an option.
if your bootloader is locked and you have warranty, send it back, because if you unlock your bootloader then your warranty will be void and you'll have to pay for repairs.

Hi there & thnx for your concern,
The warranty is not an option , cause I bought it in another country and have no service support here.
For the usb debugging mode , as far as I know , it needs to be "on" so the smartphone can be connected to adb.
I looked on the net how to turn it on without having access to android I got some command but I need an android command-line shell to make it work , wich is not an option right now.
I'm all open for suggestions.

Is there a way to get out of fastboot and try load the android again ?
I tried turn power down but it opens fastboot automaticly,
I tried
Code:
fastboot reboot
same result as above .

only thing you can do is unlock your bootloader, try again, get a new unlock token from HTC Dev.
by the way, adb commands are only for in a rom or in recovery, use fastboot commands only in the bootloader, if you cant unlock the bootloader then theres not a lot you can do.
could you post your fastboot getvar all please, remove imei and serial number information before posting, maybe there is an RUU we can run.

bootloader needs to be locked / relocked to flash the RUU or firmware as your s-on.
"fastboot oem lock" is the command without quotes.

Hi there, I did it already , it says device already locked.

soz about that, just realised, had a read back through the whole thread to catch up, right, 171 is a USB connection error, so when your phone is in the bootloader, plugged into the computer with fastboot usb showing, have a look in device manager and make sure your computer can see your phone and that you dont have anything like "One" with a yellow exclamation mark.
sounds like a driver problem to me, but are you using the original HTC cable too ?

Yeah , well I tried like 4 drivers already , fastboot usb is indeed showing, and the RUU does restart the device , but when waiting for bootloader nothing shows =/
Tried with different pc too with different compatiblities.
Only thing left to try is another cable.
Thnx for following up

what I meant was when fastboot usb is showing, have a look in windows device manager and make sure it see's your phone, should say MyHTC.
only drivers you need which have never let me down, even on Windows 10 is HTC sync manager, just download and install the latest version from the HTC site, I would uninstall all current phone drivers first, then run a cleaner like CCleaner to remove old files, reboot computer then install HTC sync manager, after the install, un-install HTC sync, just leaving HTC driver package above it alone.
make sure your phone is unplugged when doing the above, leave your phone in the bootloader, and when you have finished the last step of un-installing HTC sync, then plug your phone into the computer and let it load the fastboot driver, thats the main one you need right now.

Hi again , So I tried everything above and nothing , took the device to a guy who's good in repairing and flashing devices and couldn't flash it neither.
for a radical solution , should I change the whole mainboard or there is a specific part ?

It's a 2 year old phone, it's really only worth fixing if you already have the parts for free.
This phone sells for $149 New in the US, and even cheaper used on eBay.

Thanks for the advice , but more objectively Motherboard or a specific part ?
Parts here are pretty cheap compared. And I can't afford a new one actually.

SD_HW_ERROR = probably a defective emmc. You can't replace the emmc chip, its soldered directly on the Motherboard so you will indeed need to replace the motherboard but like clsA said it really doesnt worth it. You can get a new M7 for 150$. HTC sells their Motherboard around 100$ + you'll probably need to replace the body like many users who tried to open the phone themselves (very fragile around the volume rockers). Even if I love my M7, I wouldn't spent 100$ to replace the MB.
And buying a used motherboard is not a good idea. You don't know if its working good + you don't know if the IMEI is blacklisted.

Thanks for the explanation alray, I excpected the fail in the emmc too cause read_mmc emmc didn't work.
Anway I don't live in the us . Here though, a new one cost roughly 300 $ and the motherboard is about 80$ or less.
Thanks again

Are you sure that your phone is a 64 bit version also this method requires a unlocked bootloader. This rom is for EE network

Forgot to say that it will say failed but it should still lock your bootloader. Sounds like you may have a 32 bit phone this is why it is stuck on htc screen or you did not flash the recovery.

Thanks for the useful tutorial I flashed my Telstra brand 64 bit phone with this tutorial and it was successful.
the only issue I encountered was when I locked the bootloader in the end than the phone kept rebooring into bootloader. I realised that the Rooted bootloader is causing this So I flashed the supplied boot.img to the phone and voila it worked.
In my opinion we have to unroot the phone before locking the bootloader.
I still can see "software status : modified" and "Relocked" in the bootloader screen. I hope someone someday will find a way to clean this thing as well.

flash boot_signed.img to your phone which is inside the rom.zip. Same problem was with me and it did the trick.
