Phone is essentially bricked - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay, I have the HTC One for Sprint. I flashed it using TWRP 2.5 and I can only currently access the bootloader.
I accidentally wiped everything off my phone and when I plug it in my computer sometimes recognizes it has HTCONE or as Android Device, either way I cannot send files over using adb sideload. Gives me the error that there is no device.
Currently my device somehow also got "unrooted" in the process. I am looking at the phone not being able to transfer any roms I want over to install a new OS nor can I restore it to the old OS.
Is there anything I can do?
PS: I did install the drivers and other devices. If someone can please help me even over teamviewer it would absolutely make my day. I have been troubleshooting this device for about 30 hours straight now.

Since you can access bootloader, you'll probably be ok..
What happens when you try to access recovery?
what happens in "fastboot usb" in your bootloader when you command
Code:
fastboot devices
If your device shows just do
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
Download one of these recoveries (since you have the Sprint version) <- this will get you into recovery if you're not already able to access it..

Well I have the recovery since thats the only one I can access. Thing is though neither of my computers can recognize the device and I cannot send the rom necessary to boot the OS.
I can access the Bootloader and I can access the Recovery. I cannot access the memory on the phone in order to send files over

Have you tried flashing the RUU? Hopefully this can help:

important part is getting the phone working again then worry about unlocking bootloader

Can always try flashing a custom ROM using an OTG cable if you've wiped the OS. I always wipe my storage and OS when I do a clean install and then flash the ROM straight from my flash drive ... Obviously you'll need to fastboot a custom recovery, if you are able to.

im going to try the method you linked me

When you're in recovery do adb devices. If it shows your phone you can sideload a ROM.
AT&T HTC One
GPe 4.3

hi bro, that happened to me as well, i have installed usb driver but adb cannot detect my device. I was running windows 8 that time but when i used windows 7 adb was able to detect my device with no issues and i was able to transfer custom rom zip file to it. I dont know if that could help you but i'm just sharing my experience.

I can access the bootloader and the recovery (switched to PhilZ touch) and sideloaded a couple roms but NONE of them work. One of the roms boots up and goes in a restart loop after hitting the front page (no icons on the screen just top bar) Even the stock version of htc one for sprint didn't work it kept resetting my device.
I tried using the RUU also but it gives me a bootloader error saying it cannot be restored after a few minutes of loading.

Well every rom so far attempted has been a dead end. CM, AOKP, all have booted and started a restart loop. I am not sure if its my kernal or anything else.
I just need some help. What I did notice is that even if the devices were working I had no cell signal. Someone please help lol

Where are you getting these ROMs from? Have you tried the ones in the Sprint HTC One forums?

HTC One Bricked =/

Hey guys
I just rooted my HTC One yesterday and installed a custom rom on it, all went well until my brain went stupid and formatted data, system, sdcard and i had no nandroid backup in place. I just upgraded from a HTC One X and from what i know, previously i could just flash CWM and mount usb and it'll go work normally. However, for my situation now, none of the recoveries actually allow me to mount usb.
Also, i'm on 1.29.404 and i can't find any RUUs that is the same as this. I also cant execute adb push for rom because my computer doesnt recognise my phone in adb devices. Can anyone help me out with this issue ?
cheers!
Hi
Greetings,
Install HTC drivers for abd to recognize your phone, this will help you to atempt abd sideload and also fastboot commands
Flash the recovery againg
"fastboot flash recovery name-of-recovery-.img"
And try again by adb sideload this is your last option before flashing a ruu

I'm in a similar boat, did a "format data" in TWRP and now I can't boot. I can access the phone via ADB tho. I'll let you know if I find a solution.
Same thing here
I also did the same thing. However, I can't boot into recovery at all; It says its about to boot into recovery, then the phone just turns off. The only thing I can do is boot into the bootloader, and lock or unlock it. Right now, its unlocked. I've tried everything. I would love to just use an ruu exe., but the only one I've found isn't working for my phone for whatever reason. I kept getting error 132 signature error. The ruu I was using was "RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_BrightstarUS_WWE_1.29.1540.3" I was using a similar version ( I think it was 1.29.300 or something), and yes, I relocked my bootloader before using the ruu; If anyone knows of a different, newer version, or really, anything at all that can help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hey thanks for replying; Unfourtently, even after reflashing twrp and clearing the cache, it still just shows the entering recovery mode and the restarts. In fact, now it is constantly restarting until I boot it into bootloader and power the system down that way. Any other suggestions?

that RUU won't work because you have to match your version-main to the RUU you are about to flash, if that version-main doesn't match than you will get that error 132 which is normal in your case... if you want to know which is your version main just type
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main

Thanks; I've found the correct ruu, but now I have a new problem. As of right now its .zip and not .exe; I cant boot into recovery and adb isnt working either. Any suggestions for getting it on the phones memory, seeing as there is no sd card I can remove?
I had my phone booting the entering recovery screen for about half a sec and would always boot back into the OS so I installed TWRP through fastboot than went to factory reset in the hboot menu and it booted into recovery it worked for me but Idk if it will work for you

Have you tried "fastboot -w" this will factory reset your phone from fastboot. Then try re-flashing recovery again.

I've had this problem on the one x plus, what I did and please bear with me, it does work Firstly flash cwm and clear cache, once you have done that you should be able to boot recovery. Once in cwm format everything including data! yep I said data! then reboot back to fastboot and flash TWRP and rewipe everything again (including data) then sideload or push your rom across to your phone.
Done this twice now on mine when I got bricked (for no reason!) I can only think the file system becomes corrupt somehow.
alright guys, i solved the issue and my phone is back to normal !
to those guys still facing the issue, i suggest you flash the latest cwm then try using the sideload function > adb sideload <filename.zip>
mine came back to life after that, heh
cheers!
Also fixed
Hey guys, thanks so much for everyones help last night. I also got mine all fixed and set away. For anyone interested, I used the ruu and steps in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250904
Thanks again to everyone for their help!

bricked mayber?

Need help. After wiping and formatting data (like a dummy) I'm stuck on bootloader with no os or backup. When I go into fastboot and enter fastboot devices, nothing shows up. fastboot was working earlier as that is how i unlocked and rooted. When I go into TWRP recovery, I am unable to mount usb. In bootloader it now shows "Tampered" "unlocked". Is there a way for unbricking this? How about adb sideload. How do you do this? I'm still able to get into TWRP. Thanks.
go back into fastboot, plug it into your pc and check device manager and is Android Bootloader Interface there?
adb sideload is an option if you download a copy of a stock rom or whatever rom you want
---------- Post added at 07:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:45 PM ----------
download the stock odexed rom from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224752 and sideload it. does TWRP have a sideload option?
Well, anyway, adb sideload doesn't load as it shows as "failed"....I don't see Android Bootloader Interface there. It's like it is not recognizing it is there anymore...
this is why i dont use twrp lol.. last time i used it on my nexus it did weird stuff.
check your cable maybe? usb 3.0 ports have issues sometimes.
the wording tampered and unlocked is normal its on mine and it works fine.
Ok...HTC sync manager was asking for an update when I restarted it and now my device shows up!...flashing now...good luck to me
So I assume it only shows "unlocked" before you root it and then "tampered" after rooting?
Darn, after flash showed complete...stuck on HTC logo screen...try another rom? maybe stock?
Just downloaded the ruu .exe file. does anyone know how to flash this? Thanks.
Run it on your computer it removes your root
Use CWM instead of TWRP. This happened to me and twrp wouldn't allow sideloading. use cwm and sideload using the console.
Great! After everything else failed. This little video did the trick:

[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.

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.

[Q] Sprint One, can only access hboot and recovery

I feel like I have used up all my resources on trying to get my Sprint HTC One back to stock.
Last night I was able to unlock it with no trouble. I didn't realize this would wipe out all my media as well. (not the issue)
So I was going to go and install Benny's Cleanrom and I used Superwipe to clear all the cache and everything that was being restored from the back up. I flashed the Superwipe Rom and it seemed to have gotten the job done, but it also wiped out my OS.
So now I have been stuck with the ability of accessing bootloader and recovery, I am using TWRP right now. None of my pc's recognize my phone when I try to mount it. The phone also shows errors when I try to do so, coming up stating that it cannot mount anything except usb otg. I don't have a USB OTG cable right to use, so that option is still out the window.
I have tried this method
I have tried this method multiple times but ADB was not working. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317989
I have tried the Fastboot method, which had me relocking the phone and running the ruu. Though since I am on the latest version 1.3, the 1.2.9 RUU I was trying to use kept on failing. When doing it through Hasoon's AIO tool it seems that the ruu works when I flash the ruu zip. Though running it the first time it would show up that it failed, but when I re-flash it the second time on the cmd line it shows successful though on the phone the green bar never completes it and it stays at like 95% and doesn't complete the install on the phone.
If someone knows how to get my phone back to stock I would be very appreciative. I am new to rooting on the HTC One, I previously rooted my Evo 3D and my girls SG2.
If someone wants to help me out with team viewer, I will gladly allow anyone to assist me in that matter. I am just hoping that this can be resolved.
Now I see when I type ADB devices in cmd, it shows FA33ZS907479 recovery. I don't know if this has any relevance in that it sees the TWRP recovery.

I work weird hours so if you can wait and I'll help or you can try to do it yourself look here Q21

Deleted OS?

The other day I was using my phone and it started to die on me so I plugged it in to charge. I guess it was too low power, so when I plugged it in, it powered down and started charging via phone off. Later I come back to turn it on and it just gets stuck in bootloop. I haveTWRP installed so I cleared the dalvik cache and regular cache. That didn't work. So the next time I just did a factory restore, well after the restore I now have no files on my phone. No OS nothing.
When I plug the phone in via USB the computer chimes and lets me know something was plugged in but I don't get any other messages. If I plug my phone in while in recovery it shows the device with zero folders.
I am sure I can fix it from here, but while using WUGS Root Tool Kit my computer keeps telling me that no "FastBoot Devices" found. How do I fix that?
I would like to just flash an image if possible if someone can walk me through the process or any help would be great.

Later I come back to turn it on and it just gets stuck in bootloop. I haveTWRP installed so I cleared the dalvik cache and regular cache. That didn't work. So the next time I just did a factory restore, well after the restore I now have no files on my phone. No OS nothing.
When I plug the phone in via USB the computer chimes and lets me know something was plugged in but I don't get any other messages. If I plug my phone in while in recovery it shows the device with zero folders.
I am sure I can fix it from here, but while using WUGS Root Tool Kit my computer keeps telling me that no "FastBoot Devices" found. How do I fix that?
I would like to just flash an image if possible if someone can walk me through the process or any help would be great.

you wiped system, which wipes your rom off your phone. its a VERY easy fix.. just move whatever rom/gapps/supersu to your phone via twrp or adb, then flash it via twrp.

Also I installed a stock version of android off the factory images page and copied it over to my phone but TWRP cannot find the zip file?

Just any stock ROM, I downloaded one from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#fugu but it doesn't show up in TWRP.

to flash a factory image, you need to flaah it while in the bootloader, using fastboot. its not a zip.

Honestly man, you are talking to someone who doesn't understand a lot about these things. I need detailed instruction on how to do this. I now don't have twrp installed. I tried to install CM13 and now its stuck in cyanogen recovery mode. This really sucks and need help on how to fix it. Also while in bootloader mode. It says FASTBOOT DEVICE NOT FOUND if it were found I would not be having this issue. I would have a stock rom installed and be on my way. Since it isn't able to find a FASTBOOT DEVICE that is why I am in this current situation.
NVM I figured it out. Had to install adb-setup-1.4.2.exe and now my phone is fixed and up and running.
