I am a newbie trying to root htc one(att) , after I installed the 4.2.2 it began to keep restarting,I tought it was because I didn't wipe my data before I flash a new ROM, so i enter the TWRP and wanna wipe data and try again.
But I selected all the options and wiped everything on the cellphone including the OS, so now I can enter the bootloader, and I can enter the recovery, but I can't find the "USB storage" in the computer , so how can I transfer the rom to the storage and flash again?
Thank you very much

You know what ADB and Fastboot are I assume? if not, I'll explain more.
But you have to do the following:
- download a rom of your choice on your pc (or use one you already have on there)
- put it in your ADB folder (for example for me C:\Users\Thom\Downloads\One\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130219\sdk\platform-tools)
- then open a command window in that folder (shift+right click on the folder, or in a cmd window use the cd command)
- use the command "adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/ROM.zip" replacing ROM with the EXACT name of the ROM file and including the .zip piece on both ends. This may take a minute or two...or four, but you will see a message in Command Prompt saying something like <12345678kb to 1234567kb>. That is just telling you that the file was pushed properly.
Hi, thank you for the help. I followed your guide and successfully transfer the zip into the phone. But when I enter the recovery and try to install, it failed and says:
E: unable to mount /cache
E: unable to mount /data
E: unable to mount /system
E: unable to mount internal storage
I click the mount option in the recovery , there are 4 box (cache, data,system,USB-OTG), but I can't choose any of them.
Also at the bottom of the box it says that"Storage: Internal Storage (0MB)"

the other, and right now I think only, option is to flash a RUU.
Which One do you have? Europe, Asia, AT&T, Developer, etc? Once I now that I can point you in the right direction

ok, I'll try to help.
I had the exact same problem yesterday (I was being a bit dumb and accidently pressed the wrong button ) and I managed to solve it.
Okay, here is the RUU. Download it, it may take a while.
http://bugsylawson.com/files/file/1847-ruu-m7-ul-jb-50-cingular-12650212exe/
So while it's downloading, start with preparing.
First of all, did you flash the new firmware already? If so, go back to the old one. I'm not sure if the AT&T has same firmware as the international, if it does I can give you a link because I still have it on my pc.
You can flash it with "fastboot oem rebootRUU" (case sensitive!)
then when you see a htc logo on your phone "fastboot flash zip firmware.zip" (replace firmware with actual file name)
THEN FLASH IT AGAIN, OTHERWISE IT WON'T WORK AND YOU'LL BE BRICKED
then if it says succesful, use "fastboot reboot". Then go back into bootloader.
then, flash stock recovery (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2158763)
after that, relock your device (command is "fastboot oem relock")
so after the RUU finished downloading, try to run it.
Any problems, I'll keep an eye on this thread
Thank you . I am now at the htc grey logo status.
Since I dont know what firmware is I am afraid to take the next step.
Whats the firmware you've talked about? Is it OS? like 4.2.2 OS zip file?

No, the firmware package for the HBoot, Radio, etc.
I assume you didn't flash it when going to 4.2.2?
Or did you take the official 4.2.2 update before?
No, I didn't flah firmware when going to 4.2.2.
When my phone is good, all I did is I just copied the 4.2.2 to the phone and install in the recovery status.
Then the 4.2.2 keeps restarting and then I deleted everything on the phone .

Okay, you still have 4.1.2 firmware then. In that case you can just reboot already and skip the first step
Thanks.
The second step, flash stock recovery, I downloaded the file and in the recovery folder there are many .imgs
Which one is the one I need?
and how do I do it? just shift+right click to cmd and fastboot flash recovery name.img?

I did see someone say you don't need stock recovery. So, try to just relock it and then flash the RUU.
You can always unlock it again if it doesn't work, so there isn't much of a risk

the problem here isn't the firmware he flashed the 4.2.2 rom, which uses the storage a bit different.
The problem he has is caused by the fact he didn't clear SD directly after flashing (needed if you jump from custom rom 4.1.2 to 4.2.2)
it could have been easy, but he can't boot into his rom, everything is gone. If he could boot it would be waaaaaaay easier, would only require a few ADB commands
OK, now I run the RUU, the phone is in the grey htc status,.It says gonna take 10 mins, hope it will be fine :victory:

no problem mate
good you're back.
before you flash 4.2.2, take the official OTA
or if you don't have it yet, first flash the 4.2.2 firmware (can be found in the ARHD thread) and then after the rom is done installing, wipe the sd card
Have fun with your One

So basically the only thing working in fastboot
somehow i have managed to wipe everything off of my device so there is no rom installed what so ever...which means i am unable to turn on usb debugging to get adb working. I am also on 1.31 so the RUU method will not work. i am able to flash whatever recovery or Superuser i wish and root/unroot as i please.
the only solution i can think of would be to flash a signed stock zip using "fastboot update signedstock.zip" but the ones i found here -http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2368907 dont seem to work. i get errors like no "boot.img" or "does not contain android-info.txt"
any suggestions?

just a fyi you can use fastboot to flash a rom if you put it in the same folder as the platform tools folder of your sdk, All roms have a android-info.txt file that's how android knows how to flash what to the particular partition.
you can flash any zip file from fastboot as long as it has the android-info file
fastboot flash zip nameofzip.zip

I'm in fort myers
Ok, I know I'm going to catch all kinds of hell probably for posting this. But, I'm stuck. This is the first question I have asked on this forum, and have literally spent days on end searching, and trying new things. What happened is I think I tried flashing a GSM rom (the new android revolution 30.0) onto my Sprint HTC One. I just got this phone two weeks ago, and unfortunately upgraded to the 4.3 with the 1.55 hboot. So, S-on. I was using slimbean as my dd, but wanted to give revolution a try. When I dl the rom, it stated for m7wls, so thought I was good. Well, went into a kind of bootloop where it would upgrade android like 41 out of 120, then it would restart. When it finally would boot up, I had about fifteen seconds before it would reboot again. I tried to wipe and restore, but same thing was happening. I read that the partitions may have been screwed up from the gsm to cdma so, I wiped data and everything. I was going to relock and flash an RUU. Then I find out that there isn't one yet for the 4.3. I tried the Guru reset, updating drivers, sideloading, flashing cwm from twrp, pushing and had a rom boot up once, but no service or gapps. In cmd fastboot, my phone is recognized. But, when I use adb, it can't find it.I can get into recovery, and I have the official android 4.3 stock rom on my laptop ready to flash, but just can't get it to the phone. I am a noob, so I am sorry for that, but we all were at one time or another. I researched, tried to learn as much as I could before I took the plunge. I've read thread upon thread here and in other forums trying to find a fix. Everything that I've tried from some of these posts just didn't work for me. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, and I am not sure what you guys would need from me as far as more info. But, I would be grateful if someone could steer me in the right direction. Thanks in advance, and again apologies if I'm not doing things right for you guys. Just trying to learn and do.

I downloaded super one rom to laptop, tried using adb sideloader, but it doesn't detect my device. I went into mounts and storage on cwm and tried mounting usb, but doesn't toggle. I really am in desperate need of directions. I would even pay if I could lol.

Installed universal usb drivers, got sideload working. But now after installing the rom it is in bootloop.
Installed slimbean, I can get into the rom, but only for a minute or two. I have no service at all. When I go into about phone phone status it shows unknown network, out of service, unknow phone number etc. How do I get that back up and running? And, how do I get it to stop rebooting after a few minutes? Thank you guys
Your partitions are borked from flashing a non Sprint Rom. To fix them
if you are s-on, flash the 4.3 full firmware http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23159073880933344
if you are s-off, flash the modified firmware http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23159073880933456
Then side load your Rom and you should be golden.

Updated steps for below
So this is what we did:
1.We downloaded the s-on firmware zip from the link provided by @Konfuzion
2.Renamed it firmware.zip (put the firmware.zip into the folder you use to open your cmd window)
3.Booted to bootloader
4.Then used these commands
Code:
Fastboot oem rebootRUU
Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Fastboot reboot
He got an error so I had him re-lock his bootloader
5.Ran the commands again
Got another error
Code:
failed 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again
press the UP Arrow on your keyboard and press enter to issue the command again.
6.He was able to unlock the bootloader again and re-flash TWRP and sideload or adb push a rom to his phone.
7. S-OFF using Rumrunner
8.Win lol

Ok so I am in a similar position with one of my Sprint devices (I have 2 my kids and mine...) Anyway the device is s-off and had gone into TWRP and formated everything in anticipation of loading a new ROM that 4.3 based so wiped everything and then was going to push the rom with ADB... Problem I am having is that ADB doesn't see the device.
Now it shouldn't be a driver issue as I connected my other device to it with no problem and adb sees it fine.
@bigdaddy619.
I followed steps 1-4 except I used the zip for s-off and received no errors so I went back to twrp and attempted to sideload and still won't work.
Thanks for the assistance.

EDIT: Well looks like it was a driver issue, odd since I wasn't having trouble connecting with my other Sprint HTC One but I changed to the Universal Windows ADB Driver listed here in this post. I also updated to the latest Android-SDK and was able to sideload... Thanks all for the info in this thread!

Hi guys. Was just trying to install a 4.4 custom rom on my HTC One using CWM. I got into rrecovery mode and started trying to install the rom but it came up with an error saying it had aborted. I realised I hadn't made a backup so I thought I best do it in case anything goes wrong. I tried doing that and rebooting the phone. Now the HTC logo flashes on screen before flashing off and then the phone puts me back in recovery. Have I bricked this phone? If anyone can help me I can answer any more necessary questions.

You need TWRP 2.6.3.3 (or later) for 4.4 roms, also if you are using a GPE rom, then you need to be s-off.
Download from here: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7 don't use a download manager, it will fail; download normally and check MD5 to make sure file is not corrupt,
go to bootloader/FASTBOOT USB, and flash it:
fastboot flash openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
and install the ROM again.

wherever you put it, didnt you unlock your phone using "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin"? that would be the folder (often referred to the adb sdk)

Sorry I'm just panicking an awful lot. I'm a bit calmer now though so I'll crack on. I've got TWRP back up and I've tried to install the ROM but it keeps saying failed. Is therre any way to make my phone available to transfer to so I can try a different ROM?
EDIT: It seems I did make a backup with TWRP, I'm assuming that wouldn't show up on CWM? That seems to be working so I'll count myself lucky. I would very much like to get stock android 4.4 though so do you know of any detailed guides for getting that with TWRP on HTC one?
By the way THANK YOU SO MUCH for everything. I completely panicked and I would never have figured any of this out without your help. Thank you.

Unfortunately, TWRP and CWM backups aren't interchangeable but you can always flash back the proper recovery for the backup, and restore.

I am hoping someone can help with this, my son completely wiped his Google Edition HTC One. When I asked him what he did he stated that he flashed TWRP and did a full wipe checking all of the boxes under the advanced tab. Then when he tried to flash Cyanogenmod 10.2 it keeps failing. I asked him why he did this and he said his friend told him how cool Cyanogenmod is so naturally he want it to! (By the way my son is 13).
I know very little about this phone but I would like to get the phone back to the way it was before he messed with it as it cost me $650 to buy it. I started reading about RUU files but from what I can tell the RUU will not work with S-ON. And I can't seem to flash any ROM as it keeps failing. Any suggestions would be a big help!
Don't worry this is fixable
First relock your bootloader
Then download a RUU.zip for GPe
boot into fastboot
and type this command (in your pc of course with adb) fastboot oem rebootRUU
A silver htc logo should show
copy the RUU you downloaded to your adb folder and rename to ruu.zip
and type this command fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
this command should be typed twice (ignore the error that shows up)
after the second time it's done
type fastboot reboot
should turn right up
Good luck
Then make him use a flip phone for a week as punishment lol
I had the same. In my case I started ruu for another version (international), of course ruu failed to install but it did fix partitions, after that I was able to sideload rom. I will try to find my topic and provide You with my solution.
This is my BLS/ALS with HTC One, patient is alive and well now, only camera has pink tint...

Try with CWM instead of TWRP... and finally pass some information about progress.

Will the ruu method work if the phone is S-ON? All of the XDA posts I read state that you need to be S-OFF?
Give it a shot the phone is already bricked what you got to lose

You can run an ruu but it has to be newer..

The good news are that the phone isn't bricked, imho. The bad ones are that you will have to play with ROMs recoveries and RUU's a bit in order to have a working phone back. First of all I would focus to succeed in flashing a ROM in order to boot your phone. Googling I found a user with your same error showed in the pic that solved the issue "checking the signature box then flash a ROM where he got the error then unchecked the same signature box and reflash with success". If this process doesn't work for you, I suggest to flash a different recovery such as CWM and try to flash the ROM through it. Anyway you'll need an unlocked bootloader for the entire process. Let me know if you succeed.

when your son was flashing CM mod was he using the correct version? I don't recall but I tried flashing my ATT HTC one but I am running a WWE firmware so that made me have to flash the GSM version of CM mod. http://www.cmxlog.com/11/m7ul/ Try downloading the latest zip file there and than try mounting to his phone with the USB mount or if you have a USB OTG you can install it from a USB. It shouldn't matter if your S-ON or S-OFF for installing some roms it just helps you avoid taking extra steps to get the ROM to install.
When your flashing with TWRP make sure to do a advanced wipe and check everything that is on there. After you do a advanced wipe do a regular factory reset. I'm hoping that the new CM11 rom will flash for his phone. You can also use ADB sideload to send the zip files over to your phone if you cannot mount the phone. What ADB sideload does is open up a connection from your phones USB and lets you transfer zips over onto the internal SD card basically in DOS command.
I want to thank everyone for there guidance in this. After googling for a couple of days and a few failed attempts with the RUU command I was finally able to restore the phone. I was able to flash a nandroid backup using TWRp from another google edition HTC which brought the phone back to life. Then I flashed a stock recovery and OTA's became available to the phone. The once dead HTC is now back up and running stock 4.4 android. The only issue I with the phone now is that there is a popping sound after a notification comes in that I can't get rid of... Anyone have any ideas?

The popping noises seem to come after I updated to kit Kat I don't know but a lot of people might have that issue too.

You have lost your recovery for some reason. Just reflash the latest TWRP from here
Shut off your device. http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7wls/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.1.0-m7wls.img
Copy the file to your ADB folder on you PC. Plug the USB in.
Press and hold volume down and then press power. Keep holding volume down until a menu shows on your screen.
Use the volume rocker to select fastboot and press power to select fastboot.
Plug the device into your computer.
If you have the right drivers installed your phone screen will now say: FASTBOOT USB
Using a command prompt, type:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Your device will reboot. Use the volume rocker to select recovery and press power. You will now boot TWRP.

Here is the link to mini ADB (same as ADB) https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B1S0LCuXCnnmSWh6NGJmSE1BUWc/edit?usp=sharing
Uninstall all the HTC stuff from you PC and install only this driver http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2155881&d=1375297569
Go to the path where you installed the Mini ADB and from there open command prompt.
Copy the desired recovery to this folder
Put your phone in FASTBOOT mode Finally insert this command in command prompt:
fastboot flash recovery ---.img
--- stands for the name of the file you choose)

How can I know that if you don't? Maybe you didn't backup at all or you just deleted it? You can sideload a ROM if you don't have one on your sd card.
And next time search and read before sending pm's, like everyone else has done. And at least use that thanks button, it's the minimum sign of appreciation towards smb who is helping you

Hi,
I did a backup. I think I recovered the wrong .img file so I wasnt able to see my backup file. Anyways. I went to cwm site and downloaded HTC One sprint recovery file and flashed it and Finally got the BACKUP file!
I've restored the backup and everything was working fine but i noticed that I lost my sim unlock and my phone is rebooting in every 1-2 mins.
Please accept my sincere apologies for PM'ing you. I'll make sure I dont do that again and I've thanked all your posts. You are really a superstar sir. Hats off to your advice and posts.
Sir, Kindly help me with resolving this issue. My phone is rebooting every 1-2 mins.. Any possible solutions for it?
You are the only HOPE for me :angel::angel:

I think the reason you are rebooting is because you flashed the wrong version of CWM.
I would backup anything important to your pc then run an RUU

Should I again flash the badboyz rom?
I remember while I recovered twrp recovery I did some kind of format/wipe. I guess because of that I lost my simunlock and possibly deleted something which is making it to do so.
Should I download badboyz rom again and flash it?

NO, follow BigDaddys advice and RUU back to stock. Then work your way back to other ROM choices, most likely after flashing a new and appropriate recovery.

Yes first try reflashing the ROM after full wipe. You shouldn't loose your SIM unlock no matter what you do so smth is messed maybe with your partitions
If it doesn't work you should run the ruu. It'll brink you to stock and would have to unlock bootloader, root, custom recovery, etc.

I guess I've loosed it as I bought the phone from ebay and it came unlocked for sure but when I restored the backup I saw no signal bars on my phone,
Anyways, I'm again downloading a fresh copy of the rom and will re-install it. I dont want to do RUU and and they again everything from scratch as that would be toooo time consuming.
Hope reflashing works. I'll keep this thread updated.
Tho, While restoring I found a error that .android_secure.img is not found.
I guess that is something I messed?
UPDATE:
I did a full wipe and re-installed the Bad Boyz Rom.
Now, I'm getting to the unlock screen.
When I scroll the lock screen the phone is taking me to HTC screen and then rebooting and I'm unable to do anything...
The phone is still restarting like before.

Try another ROM, maybe it's a bad download. Also try clearing sd card first(do a backup on your pc first) and don't forget to full wipe. I'd use the ruu as last resort
