I assume you have installed TWRP or CWM? ... Might be worth checking this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2225405
Assuming you have a custom recovery installed, you need to go into "Recovery" in order to flash a ROM.

What happens when you try to access recovery?

M7_WLS - you have a Sprint model, yes? Try flashing a Sprint-specific recovery.
Here's TWRP 2.5.0.0:http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7wls/openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-m7wls.img
and here's 2.6.0.0:http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7wls/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-m7wls.img
Try 2.6.0.0 first - if that doesn't work, flash 2.5.0.0 - unless its CWM you're using, then you can find your own links.

i cant figure out how to open the iso file?

Reflash TWRP with the All in One Toolkit but replace the old TWRP file in the Toolkit folder (stored in Date -> Recoveries) with the Sprint TWRP Variant, then rename it to TWRP.

Do you know how to use fastboot commands? If you don't, then learn.. Do:
fastboot devices
If your device shows up (which it should) then do:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_your_custom_recovery.img
Remember to make a sprint version.
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium

In order to flash the recovery successfully, you need to have your adb tools installed on your computer.
Then you download the Sprint specific recovery as mentioned before and put it in the same folder as your adb tools.
On your Sprint One you go to bootloader, select the option fastboot, connect your One to the computer and you see on the screen of your One fastboot usb, then open a terminal window (start and in search box type cmd) in that window then, point to your adb tolls folder with
cd c:\platform tools (or whatever name you gave your adb tools folder)
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery name-of-your-recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
then boot into your recovery.
Go to choose .zip then install .zip highlight the .zip you wish to flash (has to be also a sprint compatible one which you copied BEFORE onto your SDcard)
and follow instruction!
After that reboot and wait until you see the welcome screen.
Please read up BEFORE you do anything, and ask questions BEFORE you do anything so that you are familiar with the process.
And be careful with the AIO toolkit, it is a great program but you can really mess up your fone if you don't understand what it actually does.
In the developer section, under stickies you can find all information needed!

So, when I understand you right, you have an unlockes Sprint variant HTC One, still with your stock Sprint ROM, without recovery yet flashed, and no custom ROM .zip on your SDcard which right now is empty becuase you unlocked via HTCdev.
You need to install the adb/fastboot tools into a folder, best directly on your C: drive.
Once that is done, download and copy the Sprint variant recovery into the same folder.
From bootloader, select fastboot and connect your phone with the cable to your computer.
In RED letters you see on your phone fastboot usb.
Now klick START on your computer, and in the search box type CMD, and double click the result.
A terminal window opens up in BLA>CK, in there you point to your tools folder with: cd c:\the-name-of-your-toolfolder
then type fastboot erase cache
then fastboot flash recovery name-of-your-recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
when you see all went through successful, select on your phone hboot option, then recovery and confirm with the power button, this boots the phone into the recovery.
Now you need to do a back up first of your stock Sprint ROM.
After that you need to sideload a custom ROM.zip for your Sprint version HTC One. this explains how to do that.
Make sure you use a Sprint version custom ROM.zip
I hope this clears it up for you!

right, you successfully booted into recovery...then you either need to root your stock sprint ROM; or flash a custom Sprint variant ROM.
How to that is explained in the link I provided.
After that you should be up and running.

You should push with adb a custom ROM.zip file and flash it.
Or mount a USB stick with an OTG cable and flash it from there. But you have to flash TWRP recovery with the OTG USB method.
To push a custom ROM.zip file while you're in recovery mode (also read here):
copy the ROM.zip to the same folder where your adb/fastboot files are.
open a cmd window from that folder
type "adb push ROM.zip /sdcard"
when finished reboot to your recovery
wipe system, data and caches (DON'T wipe the sd card content)
flash your ROM
If you have problems with adb not recognizing your device try a PC with Windows 7 and USB 2 port, install HTC drivers from here and use the mini-sdk for your adb/fastboot folder.

you can follow this guide for windows 8 problems it works a treat, i know because i had problems with adb on windows 8.

also i would look at downloading the toolkit in android development. don't panic its definitely not bricked. if you can get adb working you can then flash recovery or rom or both

Yes it is, he was trying to prevent you from losing anything on the sd card, since the updated ROM will relocate where the sdcard storage is found.
Although I don't think it is relevant since you most likely have a wiped phone.. Seeing as there is no OS installed.

[Q] One is stuck in bootloader

I just got my HTC One less than a week ago, rooted and flashed my first ROM with no issues. Decided to try out a different one today, but after flashing it, my phone rebooted into bootloader and has been stuck there. Anytime I try to reboot the phone or reboot into recovery, it just goes back to the bootloader screen. Same thing when I attempt a factory reset. I've tried reinstalling TWRP recovery and although it says the install is successful, it's still stuck in bootloader. I also tried to install my previous ROM via fastboot command (which is failing), but to no avail. I got the following output:
sending 'zip' (994092 KB)...
OKAY [ 38.486s]
writing 'zip'...
(bootloader) zip header checking...
(bootloader) zip info parsing...
FAILED (remote: 24 parsing android-info fail)
finished. total time: 54.083s
I'm on the Sprint version, and I'm aware that 4.2 ROMs don't work on Sprint yet so I'd be using older versions of them for the time being, but I guess I inadvertently used an incorrect version.
Any ideas?
hmm...must really be bricked. :-\
if it is booting into bootloader, it is not bricked...
try connecting your USB cable , select fastboot in bootloader... it should show the FASTBOOT USB
now on your PC, where you have the ADB/Fasboot files, SHIFT+RIGHT CLICK on that folder and select Open command window here.
In command window, enter FASTBOOT ERASE CACHE
and try booting again...it might work.....

Try using the HTC one AIO toolkit to flash a new recovery and see if that helps.
It uses the FASTBOOT method to flash. Plus you have options to try CWM and TWRP.
If that works you should be able to flash a different rom to get your device up and running

When I click to flash a recovery, it gives me a prompt that there will be 2 screens and to close the 1st one once I'm in bootloader...I do that, then the 2nd screen comes up but nothing happens. Same thing for both the Sprint options
You need to be in the fastboot menu not bootloader menu.

What you could try is download one of the recoveries and unzip the file so you get the .img file of that recovery.

Profit! Turns out the flash your own recovery option worked, I just didn't follow it all the way through, initially...after I closed the command prompt screen, the Open file menu came up and I was able to pick my TWRP recovery and boot into it. I restored my backup I made right before flashing the bad ROM and the phone is booting past the bootloader now
But.....next issue is that it's booting to a black screen instead of the regular lock screen, and after sitting there in that state for a few minutes, it reboots. :-\ I'm wondering if this is just because I deactivated the phone and switched back to my EVO LTE while trying to fix the One...that would be a first, though, as the phones are usually operational even if they don't have service.

Glad to hear the recovery worked. As for the phone staying on black. I would just advice to flash a nother rom if the problem still persists mate

Well, flashing and restoring didn't quite work, so I wound up having to do a factory reset (thankfully I had all my files on my PC from when I had to move them from my EVO, and since I'd only upgraded a few days ago, I didn't lose a whole lot) and a re-lock of the bootloader.
Only weird thing is, even re-locking it, the phone remained in S-OFF state. But I was able to rerun the HTC Dev Unlock to unlock the bootloader again and flashed a correct ROM. Back in business.
Thanks for your help...that toolkit you linked me to saved my ass.

To be S-ON again you need to reboot into bootloader
Then FASTBOOT USB
then run fastboot and write "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" and enter. Now you will be S-ON
But do NOT S-ON unless you absolutely need to.

[CLOSED] Install custom recovery

Howdy,
when I try to install custom recovery on my HTC One, nothing happens.
On the HTC One screen I have in red written FastBoot USB, but when I try to install it nothing happens.
It's says "waiting the device".
I included a screen of my CMD.
I really don't know whats wrong? USB Debugging is enabled.
P.S.: It seems I have trouble with regonizing the phone in windows 8, but I have installed HTC Drivers version 4
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
David
Just put the .img file in your fastboot folder and type: fastboot flash recovery clockwork-touch-6.0.4.5-m7ul.img

Did you put your phone in fastboot mode? Power + vol down. in command prompt type fastboot devices - if you see your device then you good to go.

If you know how to use adb you can push a ROM manually and flash it provided you still can boot recovery.

your not telling the whole truth
it's impossible to get hboot 1.44.000 without flashing it in fastboot oem rebootRUU or you never had 4.06.1540.2
you did all this by yourself ? Installed 4.06.1540.2 and Kitkat Rom ?

also now that the RUU has changed your hboot you need a windows 7 pc to fix it now

this file should get you back to stock from a windows 7 pc
install htc sync drivers first on the laptop and be sure fastboot devices works before continuing on.
then run the command fastboot oem lock before starting the RUU. this relocks the bootloader
http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...1-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-exe/
after the RUU finished you will have to start from scratch and unlock bootloader and install custom recovery and Root

here you go
Instructions for Flashing RUU Zip Files:
Download the RUU.zip file and place in your ADB/fastboot folder. I would recommend renaming the zip file to something simple like ruu.zip.
Boot your phone into the bootloader by holding the power and vol up/down buttons at the same time until you see the bootloader screen or if you have your phone booted you can use the ADB command:
adb reboot-bootloader
Now use these fastboot commands:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Should see the Silver HTC logo. Now issue this command to flash your phone using the ruu.zip file:
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
Now the first time you issue a command to flash firmware/ruu in fastboot it only prepares the flash. You have to issue the exact command again:
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
The green status bar usually does not reach the 100% mark. When the output in the command window is complete, you can reboot:
fastboot reboot

Flash this in recovery

[Q] i really need help!!!

hi everyone
last week i flashed a KK rom, and i saw in recovery "can't access internal sorage" when i wanted to backup the rom. BUT i could download and flash other roms from the phone.plus, fastboot was not showing anymore "fastboot usb" but "fastboot ac" only, and my PC shows "unknown device" and doesnt see the phone.
i downloaded another rom, and to install it, i wiped data, cache, dalvik, and BY MISTAKE i wiped "internal storage".
and the result is.....: no rom inside the phone, i can't boot because i wiped system, i am still "fastboot ac", so i can't use adb commands....
i tried several cables, computers, tried to reinstall drivers etc....
my one is unusable ::// ....if some experts have an idea, i'd be fan

thats where it comes from i think.
