Please help,
I was screwing around in TWRP and instead of doing a normal factory reset I ticked system as well... Instead of reading the clear message of no OS i decided to reboot into OS and now stuck on HTC logo screen with no way to go into TWRP, recovery or any other mode.
ADB doesn't list the device, Power button doesn't shut off screen or device
Please help me out as I have no idea how to restore it to any workable state.

How long are you holding them? Also, try holding down power with the phone under a bright light.

About 10 seconds which is what it normally would take to go into recovery.
This is room is always brightly lit so no effect

That is not long enough my friend. In your situation, it can take a minute or two, and even normally it's more like 15 seconds.
Keep power button pressed - You should see the back and home buttons blink and you should be able to get into hboot

I see the buttons blink but what else do i need to do to get into hboot? Does it need to be connected to PC? And how long after blinking starts should I hold? Tried with volume down to no success before
Try holding the proximity sensor directly under a bright light. Just being in a lit room isn't always enough. Hold volume down and power till the home and back start flashing. Do not let go until the phone is off. Now let go. Hold both buttons again until you see the bootloader.

Boot into recovery.
Download a ROM on pc.
Put ROM in adb/fastboot folder.
Connect phone to PC.
Open a command prompt in the folder ( hold shift and right click - open command prompt here).
"adb devices"
It should list your phone.
"adb push your-rom-here.zip /sdcard/"
It'll look like its not doing anything for a while, be patient it can take some time.
When it's done, us twrp to flash the ROM like normal.

Is my HTC One bricked/soft-bricked. When I power off and then back on, all I see is the HTC log for 2 sec's; then it jumps back to the boot screen as if I held the power button plus vol down.
Is there any way I can reinstall my sprint software and get my phone working again? If so,what is the Easiest Way to go about fixing this. Little skills when it come to installing rom to android.
Please Help

Basically, Aroma froze while installing TrickDroid so I tried to send adb reboot recovery to the phone and got a nice message saying "error: device not found"
I tried holding the power button+volDown to reboot it but that hasn't worked. The capacitive buttons began to flash and I continued holding for ~1-1.5 minutes.
Is there anything I'm not doing correctly? I've been a long time lurker coming from a SGS2 and things are quite different with this phone so forgive me if I indeed am a noob.

I've noticed with my Dev unit it won't reboot with the power + vol down buttons. I've gotten stuck in Aroma Installer a couple times like that. I just had to keep trying. It seemed to respond better when it wasn't plugged in to the charger, but that may be just me.

Yeah, I'd hold the power+volDown, just power, power+volUp+volDown and nothing was working. I unplugged it from my computer and kept trying to get the 2 buttons pressed simultaneously and eventually I did get it to work.
Already disliking the idea of a non-removable battery...

The whole issue to that is the sensor have to have contact with bright light if u r in the dark the phone won't restart u have to be in the light I don't know why I tested it and that's the problem light needs to be shining for the reboot to happen when holding down the power and volume down buttons

Aroma works fine on phones below 1080p.
Aroma must be fixed. We know WHY it locks up, it just hasn't been fixed yet.
I've had it lock up without touching ANYTHING.
Locked up on the first screen of a rom install.

Twrp crashed my first flash attempt and aroma mostly crashes right after the install is finished, during the install sometimes, and rarely when using the physical buttons to navigate it.
I haven't been able to use an adb command with either recovery when aroma crashes. Not sure if that's the same with everyone else.

If you can`t get into fastboot mode or boot up there is nothing you can do anymore and you have to turn it in for repair imo. Maybe someone else knows more about his but i can`t see a solution based on your info.
Keep your finger pressed on the power button and the lights will flash still keep it pressed they then stop flashing and phone will turn off about ten to fifteen seconds holding should do it. Once they go out let go of power button and press volume down button keeping it pressed until boot screen appears

Hi,
I just flashed the last nightly build of cyanogen mod on my HTC ONE.
Everything was successfull, but now I come where I must set my SIM Card code, but the screen doesn't work, I can't press any number.
When I press the power button, I see "reboot" and "Shutdown", but no way to click on them. If I do a long press on the Power button(more than 20sec), Nothing happens.
Since I can't remove the battery, I also can't reboot for now. And with my full battery, no application running, and no connectivity, it will take very long until having no more battery.
Any idea of what I should do now?
Did u check the md5 checksum before flashing? Maybe u can try power and volume down and then flash again or reboot.

No I didn't, I used a software on android to directly download the rom.
I did try to press power + volum down/up for several seconds, with no lucks, all it does is changing the sound volume
Hold it for already 1 min and if u see back button and home button blinking it means is working and it should restart.Always check md5.

Hold the POWER + VOLDOWN under a very bright light (not kidding!), as soon as the buttons start flashing it should take about 30sec to a minute to reboot the phone. (you may have to try a few times, sometimes it works from the 1st time and often takes 4 or 5 tries to get it working)
Once the phone reboots, keep holding VOL DOWN to get to bootloader then recovery, push a ROM using adb push or adb sideload to your phone and flash that. make sure it's not a corrupt download as stated above.

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but I did something like 7-8 times the operation:
I press on the power button(also tried with the Vol-down button most of the time), I got the < and home button blinking, I keep those button pressed for 1-2 minutes(my finger are officially dead), but nothing happens except this blinking.
I've a backup that I can restore once I'm on recovery.

The blinking is good, means your input (ie press of the buttons is recognized), Are you holding your phone under a very bright light (it's not a joke, the sensor reacts to the bright light), it does help. My phone was stuck too a couple of days, had to put the phone directly under the light bulp and had to try 4 to 5 times POWER + VOLDOWN + bright light and after 30sec to 1 min it reboots.

Flashlight? When I was messing with my phone the daylight was enough to get it going, but half an hour later, as the sun was setting, the reboot no longer worked. had to go to stand under a light bulp (with the sensor directed at it to get the most of light) and the reboot worked again.
If it's booted you should be able to use adb. adb reboot recovery, do wipes, flash a rom (or restore a backup)

Yes I tought of that, but since it's a very fresh install, I don't have USB debug enabled, then adb cannot find the phone. Or is there a way to use adb with usb debug disabled?
