twrp recovery not responding - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Hi all, I just got my HTC one today and love this phone. I unlocked the bootloader and installed twrp touch 2.6.0.0. The problem Im having with twrp is when it says to slide to unlock it will slide once and unlock but if i try anything else it just locks and wont slide again. Unless i hit the back button but will do the same again and again. Tried rebooting and anything i can think of. What i would like to do is actually install 4ext as my recovery but im not sure of how to do this now since my recovery isnt work right. Can i do it from fastboot and just install over twrp or do i need to wipe it first. Dont wanna go any further until i consult with the experts here first. Thanks for any input and help.
Cheers and 3 beers :good:

4ext isn't available for the One, however it is slated to be one of the first devices to be supported, however there is no release date as of now.
As for twrp maybe you got a bad download? Try downloading and flashing again.

That could be possible. So here is what iam thinking. I boot into bootloader and run fastboot, from there i can use a cmd prompt to just install a different version of twrp or cmd over what is there now. I dont have to wipe the current recovery thats screwed up?. Thanks by the way

I believe this is a known issue with TWRP 2.6. Just install a different version and you will be fine

Problems with ViperROM 1.0.3 - Reboots; No Apps; No Service

This should be a reply to the main topic in the Dev section, but it's my first post. This is the only place I can post...
I'm new to Android, I've been an iPhone user since the beginning. I remember going through the steps to jailbreak and unlock the 1st iPhone by hand via command line. And I've been jailbraking iPhones ever since. Before that I was flashing ROMs to my Windows Phones and modding Xbox's. Now I'm ready for Android, but I'm stumped:
The HTC One is my first Android phone. It's the Sprint phone so I'm attempting to flash with ViperROM 1.0.3. I'm unlocked running TWRP and have followed the tips I've found to a 't'. But every time I flash, ViperROM boots, takes about 3 mins, Reboots, begins Upgrading Apps (a random number of apps each time, once 37, once 83, once 232) then finishes at the lockscreen. Unlock and the HTC setup begins. The keyboard disappears (from existence, from the shade notifier it want me to pick a keyboard, but won't let me), I never get network service, and after a few minutes the phone reboots. Once it reboots it comes to a black screen with on the notification bar with the battery and time. Then reboots again after a while. Never stops.
What I'm I doing wrong!? I'm wiping everything clean before I install, I've checked the MD5 of the ZIP, I've re-downloaded the ROM, nothing is working. What am I missing?
Maybe you should start with viper 1.0 and see how that one goes

I've figured out the problem, but no solution yet.
It's TWRP. For some reason it is not mounting /system. Not found a way to get it to mount /system on boot. You can mount it via 'Mount' from within TWRP and install viper without any problem, but when it reboots it's still not mounting /system
I tried using a plain stock ROM had the exact same problems. The OS can't see /system.
Any one know how to fix TWRP so it mounts /system? I've already tried overriding it with CWD then reinstalling TWRP. Didn't work. And CWD isn't HTC One Compatible, yet.
When you rooted did you do this step?

Yes. I did. That's how I started the process. And yes, I've tried Vipers's R/W root.
If that doesn't work I would relock it, install the RUU and start over. Seems your recovery install went wonky. Maybe your download was corrupted.?? Be patient, you'll get it bud.

Thank you for the help! It's very appreciated! Sucks to be the noob. Is hard needed to learn everything as you go on a new platform. But love figuring it out!
Now, I did try last night to flash a stock RUU (used this RUU: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250904)
I re-locked the bootloader and then used Hasoons all in one tool to flash it. It failed. Where can I find a good RUU to flash?
Also, this post seems to best explain my /system mount problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2194471

I haven't seen or heard of this tool. The only noobproof one i know of is hasoons. Also the RUU that you used is it the Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_1.29.651.7_RUU.zip?? Thats the one I used and make sure you unzip it and run the exe.

Sorry, not boomer, it was Hasoon. I'm away from my computer and could only remember there were two O's in his name. :silly:
It might have been that RUU, I'll try that method when I get back home this evening. Thanks. I hadn't unzipped or run it via exe the one I got before
good luck. and make sure your bootloader is locked before you do it.
See my post on incremental updates in this forum or basically use TWRPs sideload adb feature in advanced . You need the Hassoon2000 all in one toolkit for the HTC One. Watch wwjoshdew on YouTube he covers it. Press Shift in the all in one root toolkit folder and select Run command prompt here. Once you do that put the phone in adb sideload mode, wipe all caches and then sideload the zip file with Viper 1.0.3 to your phone no need to change the name of thefile. TWRP will rename this to sideload.zip for you and begin to reflash your new ROM. When it is complete it will reboot to system. Make sure you make a Nandroid and never ever do a factory wipe in TWRP as I found out the hard way. It WILL erase your backups.lol

Did you do the advanced wipe from TWRP before flashing the ROM?
I got my phone working again, at the least, by running the RUU.
I'll attempt to install vipersROM again this weekend and see if re flashing the TWRP works.

Yes, I did. But installing the ROM wasn't the problem as I was able to mount /system from within TWRP. Wouldn't mount though when booting the ROM.
*Update*
Ran that RUU and re-flashed to stock on Monday night and ran stock for the rest of the week.
Yesterday I tried it all again and all went well with out an issue. (Flashed viperROM 1.0.4). Aside from one re-flash this morning after I tried installing some AirPlay app that halted the phone and kept it from starting up. But after a quick re flash without a wipe, that fixed that quickly.
It was a bad recovery flash. So, in the future if anyone has this problem and finds this post and skips to the end for an answer:
I used Hassoon2000 All-In-One Toolkit for HTC One
- Re-Lock Bootloader
- Re-flash to Stock via the correct RUU (extract the *.ZIP and run setup.exe. In this specific situation: Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_1.29.651.7_RUU.zip)
- Unlock Bootloader
- Flash Recovary (i.e.: TWRP)
- Then one of the following to Flash a ROM:
+ Sideload a compatible ROM via ADB (In this specific situation: viperROM for the Sprint HTC One)
+ Upload ROM to Phone via DroidExplorer and Install directly from TWRP
Glad to see you got it figured out. :good:
Hi!
just reviving the thread, had the same issue you see, but on phone there's no imei.
pls help!

Attempted to install new InsertCoin [Fail]

It gets to the end but shows install error 7 at the end, booted anyways, now just bootloops to eternity. No recovery is accessible only fastboot now.
Tried to install 3 recoveries through fastboot all passed but none bootup, factory resetted through fastboot, no go still. Not in anyway meant to steer people away from the ROM, others are reporting it is working fine for them. I can't and a few others it seems. Phones aren't done for, just temp out for the count.
Will clean up the thread and make things prettier but need to get to work, hopefully this gets some attention. Thanks for any help guys, I won't be able to trouble shoot for about 10 hours or more depending on work things.
Were you able to restore your backup, or perhaps adb push a new rom ?
If not, what is your fastboot getvar all output?

I can't access recovery. Others have posted they can get into recovery and revert back. I cannot get it to boot and stay in recovery for more then a second. I installed the latest cwm recovery before flashing all was fine. Any link to sideloading. Will try when I get home tonight, on a backup phone right now at work.

So I tried it.
Got a boot loop to where i keep rebooting at the set up menu. -.-
I can't push via ADB for some reason, it says my HTC isnt found when the last time I tried, i removed all data, then adb pushed but that was dangerous .

Edit: To avoid confusion I changed the link to the one RikRong posted that will give you the M only version. File name: TWRP2710-RAZR_M-KITKAT.img.
Edit2: Looks like the links are down so here is a link to a post that @rahimali provided in this thread. Its for TWRP 2.8 and 2.7.1.0.

anyone else have a problem with this not recognizing the touch commands and just basically acting like its frozen? Nothing works I left it for awhile and came back to it and tried to open the slide lock and it doesn't do anything. The battery is fully charged so what I guess I have to do is wait for the thing to die so I can get out of recovery.
UPDATE: Still not working for me but I was able to shut it down by pressing the Power + Volumes Up and Down Keys

Looking at my bootloader I do not think I am on the KK bootloader it gives me a date of 2013-09-25 I am assuming that is the original bootloader that it came with. Guess I'll do a search for the KK bootloader and see if I can get that flashed over.

To get the KK bootloader, I flashed the latest OTA through rsd lite. It should keep the boot loader unlocked but will remove root. If you plan on using a stock ROM, Q9Nap's GPE is very smooth and stable. Their thread gives links and instructions on how to flash OTA.
So the Frog has officially Croaked his Phone.
Yes you heard right I have managed to kill my phone. Only good thing is that I couldn't use it for much more than a mini wifi tablet so I didn't really loose anything.
I could not get Twrp 2710 to work was because I had the old boot loader So I decided to update the boot loader which I did but now the phone will not go out of the boot logo screen. I have successfully reinstalled my ROM and still will not go past the boot logo screen. I have tried fastbooting back to the old bootloader but no luck there either. I have spent about 2.5 hours this morning trying different things to get it to work and nothing I have found or came across will work. I have however successfully installed twrp 2710 and now have it working. Considering that is the only area of the phone That I can actually get into i guess thats something.
Some of the older Roms won't boot on the kk kernel they will not boot past the boot logo... When you upgraded did you flash the entire kk firmware via rsd? And it wouldn't boot past the boot logo...

Random bootloop, only fastboot on locked bootloader

Hey guys. Sorry if its been posted before but I did search with no solution found. So I did have a HTC One that I S-Off'd, rooted and everything else and I have had a few other modded HTC devices, but the issue isn't with mine.
My sister also has a HTC One which randomly stopped working the other day. Its stuck in a bootloop where it reaches the One boot animation then restarts. Its not unlocked, its still S-On and not rooted.
The only thing I can access is Hboot and therefore the only thing I can really use is fastboot commands. When choosing recovery the screen just goes black and it restarts.
Under any normal circumstance I'd unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery and reflash the stock ROM or something but she NEEDS the files on her phone. She's OK with losing apps and app data and settings etc but the user data can't be wiped.
Again sorry if the solution is out there already but I've been up since 6am, been at work all day, had to drop people off and I've been trying to get this phone working. Its now 1am and she needs this phone ASAP. Cheers in advance, Huzi.

theirs no real magic here... you can try fastboot erase cache and fastboot reboot-bootloader
from bootloader you can go to stock recovery when you see the android on his back hold volume up and tap the power button
you should see the recovery menu try erase cache their also.
everything past that gets more and more destructive stock recovery / factory reset / try to bootup phone ..followed by unlocking the bootloader and installing TWRP and doing a format data. Then pushing a rom onto the phone

Yes they do a full wipe .. if you were s-off you could make a custom RUU that did not wipe the phone though
Your situation is why HTC sold the phone with a 25gig dropbox included, If people choose not to use it as a backup then they find out the hard way why it was their. All the new HTC's come with Free Google drive Accounts for the same reason

Can't access recovery.

Hi guys, I'm pretty new to the Xperia, came from a desire HD, and loving it!
I've flashed roms to this phone already, but ended up going back to to the latest stock Rom and since then I can't get into the recovery. I don't know if I'm back to stock recovery or not, but I've tried all the button combos, apps and adb and I just can't seem to get in! Also, I can't remember if I relocked my bootloader.. whoops..
Would flashing dual recovery sort this? Or would doing so with a locked boot loader mess with things?
Also, would flashing the recovery wipe anything from my phone? Not that it's a problem, I just don't wanna dive in with no back ups
Thanks in advance

Hi friend
You can flash a dual recovery with locked BL . I did so and it was a success . ALWAYS backup your data before doing such things :laugh:
Cheers mate! I know to always back up, but I get very little time to do this stuff, working a lot, I just wanted to know if I could get away with it, Hahaa :')
