I tried flashing the renovate rom to my sprint one and got a kernal error at the end and it would not boot. I somehow also managed to wipe everything off the phone including the backup so i can even go back to stock. I tried pushing a rom via adb but i can get that to work and when i try use fastboot it says failed and i get a signature verified error. I am really starting to panic because i spent all of last night trying to find a solution and was unsuccessful. I also tried flashing using the ruu but it was unsuccessful but im pretty sure thats because i am on the 1.31 ota and it was a 1.29 ruu because i cant find a 1.31 ruu. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
which recovery do you have installed? if you have TWRP, you could try adb sideloading a ROM.... in TWRP, choose Advanced/ADB Sideload. then you send the ROM to the phone from your computer with 'adb sideload <rom name>.zip'.
if you don't have TWRP installed maybe you can install it from fastboot. there are probably other solutions too, but hopefully this would work. good luck!
Did you relock the bootloader before you tried the RUU?

Alright so here is my predicament.
I have a T-Mobile HTC ONE.
I am S-OFF, have TWRP 2.5.0.0 installed on my device, my bootloader says ***LOCKED*** because I locked it using revone after performing S-OFF.
I tried to install ElementalX 1.1 and after installation, my phone would not boot.
I have tried pushing a different kernel to the device and flashing that in recovery as well but I got the same result - a nonbooting device.
I tried to fastboot flash a kernel, I tried to fastboot flash a different recovery to see if that would allow me to flash the kernel and get my phone booting. No dice. I get "REMOTE FAILED" or not allowed error.
I'm at a loss right now because I didn't back up my boot partition before trying to flash this kernel and I honestly don't know what to do short of doing the HTC Unlock process again and literally losing everything on my phone.. Photos and everything. I don't have a recent PC backup either so that absolutely has to be the last resort.
ANY and ALL help will be greatly appreciated. This is the first time I've ever been in this position and not known what to try next.
Thanks in advance,
Dan
Ok so I was able to use revone to unlock the bootloader again and was able to successfully flash CWM. I tried re-flashing the kernel using CWM and the phone still will not boot.
Does anyone else have any ideas?

Did you manage to get back your stuffs (photos and such) yet?
What rom were you running? Just dirty flash it

No I never was able to back up my stuff but I haven't given up yet. I'm refusing to re-flash an RUU until I have exhausted all other options.

I was running Trickdroid. I'm still trying to get it back up and running.. Going to try and fastboot flash boot.img from stock 1.29 T-Mobile ROM next and see if that can get it to boot.
EDIT>> Trying a dirty re-flash now.
EDIT2>> Seems a dirty re-flash was just what I needed. Phone is booting now. I appreciate the tip.
Wonder why trying to flash a kernel while running TrickDroid would result in a non-booting device though. Makes no sense.

I believe that you can boot into your recovery, right? Did you try adb pull to grab your stuffs?
TrickDorid has its own boot.img, if you try to flash stock T-Mobile boot.img over, then I think it'll cause a mess to you ROM. Try to avoid doing that.
I advice you to try adb pull to get your stuffs and then flash a RUU over

Well I did a dirty flash and re-flashed TrickDroid. It got my phone booting and it seems there were minimal side effects.
Think I got lucky this time.
Still don't know why a kernel flash would have resulted in a non-booting phone if it said successful.
The strangest thing is that it would actually boot but non-responsive and with a black screen. I was still able to use adb and that's how I was able to re-unlock the bootloader and try fastboot flash the kernel.
Wish I had ENG or modded hboot though so that I had extended fastboot commands and I didn't have to mess with revone but it all worked out for now.
I want to get back to stock Sense 5 and unroot my device. I was on AOKP and tried using the RUU to restore my device. Unfortunately, I failed to realize I had updated my One to software version 1.31.xxx, and the RUU tool I was using was for 1.29.xxx. So now I have no OS on my phone. I can get to bootloader and TWRP recovery, but neither are really useful to me. At this point I'd be satisfied just flashing any ROM. Pushing via adb isn't working because it won't recognize my device. When I try to start sideload in TWRP I get the error "E: Unable to mount '/data'", so I can't load a ROM that way either...If someone could help me out, I'd be forever grateful.
EDIT: After formatting data I was able to sideload a ROM
none
Did you relock the bootloader first?
Try plugging it into the computer and type ADB reboot recovery, that will take you into recovery. From there you should be able to lock it and run your RUU

I was able to get a ROM on my phone. From what I can gather, you can't downgrade from 1.31 to 1.29 with RUU unless you have S-OFF. I guess I'll wait until someone makes a RUU tool for 1.31. What I don't understand though is that viperROM is based off the 1.29 firmware, but the RUU tool I used still says my phone is using 1.31 (thus, why it won't work).
Gnex,,if you s-off using Revone,you can run any RUU and get back to box stock

Hi, I have tried being clever and rooting my HTC ONE Mini, which all went perfectly well. Unlocked Bootloader and installed TWRP.
I found a radio update on a website and tried installing it, with S-ON. As you can imagine I am not stuck in Bootloop.
I somehow managed to wipe all the data off my phone and sdcard too.
So I am stuck with a phone in bootloop with recovery from TWRP.
Everytime i try and fastboot flash any file even an Android ROM.zip it doesnt like it. I am novice at this so you are probably reading this and think what is he doing.
Can someone help me or guide me to getting my phone back and running again. Please??

You can't use fastboot to flash a rom.zip! It must be pushed to your phone (use either adb push or adb sideload from recovery) and installed from custom recovery.
Btw this is the wrong forum for your device. Htc one mini forum is here
im not really sure what happened...
i was trying to root then s-off today. i got htcdev.com unlocked, was able to flash custom recovery (philz) and flash superuser. when i tried to s-off (firewater) i got the whelp this sucks error (im still not really sure why or what that means)
i tried to then flash a custom rom, and now it wont boot past the htc flash screen with the red text ( this may be because i didnt flash firmware with the rom i tried to install?)
i have tried to flash firmware, and run a ruu and nothing is doing anything...
please please please someone help
What firmware version do you currently have installed? What ROM were you trying to flash?
Take a look at this thread below for info on how to flash the latest RUU. If you have a HK version you'll need the HK RUU. After you run the RUU you'll need to reroot your phone. You'll also need to use the SunShine exploit to gain S-off (the "whelp" message means Firewater won't work on your device). I also recommend Captain Throwback's TWRP 2.8.0.0. recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2880328
im not sure which of these are the firmware...
hboot - 3.16.0.0000
radio - 1.05.20.0321_2
os - 1.54.654.9
Firmware is your radio version. Use the RUU from the link below. Follow the instructions for the manual system update. You'll need to relock your bootloader beforehand using the command "fastboot oem lock" while connected via Fastboot USB mode.

ohh i forgot about having to relock for ruu
trying that now
I downloaded the ruu, but when I run it it can't find my phone... I think it wants me to be booted into the ROM but I can't boot the only thing I can access is the bootloader

RUU's are run from the bootloader...make sure it says fastbootusb when connected to your PC.
it did say that
Make sure you have HTC Sync installed on your computer.
I have that installed too... I got it to boot, ended up flashing different recovery then a different rom and that worked... Never got the ruu to work tho... Anyway, thanks for your help
