The toolkit will work fine however you will still have the red warning text on boot since the toolkit uses revone. This method will get rid of the red text http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314642
Ok i tried that method but it seems to be stuck on test 3 nothing is really happening its just seems to be stuck in test 3
Look up qbking video about revone HTC one on YouTube ..work like a charm for me

I flashed the Cyanogen 7 Rom to my phone, and it worked great up until last night...
Last night, I go to check my phone and realize that it is stuck at the "X" displayed when booting up. Also, either the proximity or light sensor (not sure which one), is dimly lit red.
The phone will still boot into fastboot, and is recognized by fastboot when connected to a computer. However, adb will not recognize it. I've tried to recover using the PASSIMG.zip method but it just will not work.
Sorry to bother you guys, but I don't know what to do next. And i'm pretty new to rooting and using the SDK, so please go easy on me. lol. Hopefully someone out there can steer me in the right direction. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Do you have a nandroid backup you can flash from recovery? If not...why not?
If all else fails you can always try loading a ROM using fastboot. You'd have to unlock your Bootloader first though, if you haven't already. Which Custom Recovery are you using btw?
Yeah, I have a Nandroid backup. I don't think it's on my SD card though, also I don't think it is a zip if that matters.
And the custom recovery I have is Clockwork.
Lol, this may be a dumb question, but how can I be sure that my bootloader is unlocked?
Nevermind. I think It's bricked, All it will do is flash a red light in the top left hand corner. Please say I'm wrong though...
You would know if you'd unlocked the bootloader.
Have you been in the fastboot mode yet? It's the white background with three Androids on the bottom. This is how you unlock the bootloader.
There should be a guide on how to unlock the bootloader on the Wiki, I'll go find it...
Once you've done that, you can use ADB to try and restore your Nexus using this method. This method has worked for me everytime I've used it.
I'll edit my post when I've got the unlocking bootloader post.
EDIT: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wik...uides_&_Tutorials#ADB.2FFastboot.2FBootloader
The guide is under the heading 'Root', and starts with 'In order to Unlock the Nexus One's bootloader'.
Hope this helps!
If the screen with x had a lock on the bottom of it it was unlocked.

You don't need to unlock the bootloader to use adb. You unlock the bootloader to use fastboot...
Can you get into the bootloader our recovery?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Well there seems to be a turn of events! luckily, lol My phone still boots into fastboot, my bootloader is now unlocked, but I still cannot make a connection to ADB... I must be forgetting something or doing something wrong.
You cannot get a connection to ADB? Is ADB installed; did you install the Android SDK?
If you can get a connection, type adb devices into the command prompt/terminal. If the device is connected, it will say your phone's unique code then [devices]; if it is not connected it will say your phone's unique code then [offline].

Yeah I can still get into the Bootloader, but when I select recovery, it goes to the splash screen with the lock beneath it, and hangs up and gets SUPER warm to the touch after a few minutes lol
ADB probably isn't working because you aren't booting far enough into the system.
Try using fastboot to flash a new recovery image, and see if you can get into the new recovery...
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
When I type in adb devices It says "List of devices attatched" but then has nothing listed... but I'm pretty sure I installed the SDK; I used fastboot in the command prompt to unlock the bootloader.
I flashed a new recovery; I used cmd: "fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1.img" But I still can't get past the X with the pad lock screen...
Eeeek!
Might be time to give HTC a call.
I know a few people who couldn't flash recoveries, and nothing seemed to work. They returned the phone, and HTC fixed for free...

Do you have the drivers installed for the phone?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Ahhhhh, That's exactly what I didn't want to hear! Haha, well I guess there isn't any other way to try and get past this screen is there?
I really didn't want to have to bring HTC into the equation, haha. But, do you think they will still fix the phone after I had It running Cyanogen? AND after I unlocked the bootloader?
I just want to make sure they will still do something about it and not just leave me in the cold with a really nice looking paper weight...

I should, I don't remember deleting them... How would I go about checking?
It will show up in device manager as nexus one. No yellow exclamation point. I don't recall if they are needed for fastboot/adb etc. Its in the wiki though.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
If you're using fastboot commands, the drivers must be installed.
Don't worry about the phone being unlocked. If you can't boot the phone in it's current state, neither can HTC. So the first thing they will do is a full re-image, which will also fix your problem. Then they will probably test it, and just return it to you, because they can't find a problem...

We now have the bootloader unlocked , I've tested out the WiFi tether from the HTC super tool kit ....it works....with LTE so just a heads up
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium
This might be the first time I tried unlocking a bootloader. Is there a process or step guide I can follow.
Also after you unlocked the bootloader, did you use the super tool to root and add the WiFi tether? Was you able to had mobile hotspot to your phone? Or is that the WiFi tether you are referencing?

What IP address are you referring? You simply go to htcdev website, here is the direct link: http://htcdev.com/bootloader
Follow the instructions. You might have to create a free account so you can get your unlock file via email, which you then have to flash to your phone to get it unlocked.
They did a pretty good job with the instructions. You have to use the command prompt on your pc to fastboot to your phone.
I simply unlocked my bootloader ,rooted it and then ran the WiFi exploit in the super tool

Yes i am on ATT..
I flashed Holicakes 0.3 /Beats/APM/CRTOff/Amaze4Gcamera/Extended SystemUI and its not bad! you will need to manually add the APN's though.. i added both the ATT PTA and Media Net.. STL doesnt have LTE yet so i wasnt able to test that, and currently using the media apn because i got the 5% warning yesterday
You can find the ATT PTA apn settings here
also the added Beats Audio is pretty nice!
did u have to flash the kernel first or just the rom
What am I missing? Vivid is not listed under the supported devices list...?
[BTW...yes, I currently have a Captivate but I have a Vivid on the way!]

what i did was...
transfer the rom to the internal sd card (pulled the external card, plugged the phone in and turned on disk drive mode, then transferred the rom).
Then i flashed CWM...
Then the kernel (FYI after flashing the kernel on the next boot you will be stuck on the white HTC screen, this is normal)
pull the battery, then hold vol down plus power then choose recovery. CWM will come up, choose install zip from sdcard and choose your rom.. easy as that!

I am currently on 1.29.651.10 and been meaning to Unlock and S-OFF my phone instead of taking the Update. Has anyone used the AIO Toolkit linked here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364445 to S-OFF and Unlock in 1 swoop? The UI suggested it can be done in one shot, but I just want to be sure that is the case.
Side question: best way to backup Zoe and photos? In case my device gets wiped? I've read certain places where Zoe doesn't backup very well.

That is a very easy way to go about it, and yes it can be done. As for a backup I would just copy everything important to your PC or better yet set up either HTC backup, dropbox or any other alternative. As for the Zoe's I dont know.
Thanks again for the vote of confidence. It worked however now I'm having trouble flashing a recovery. Keeps boot looping when trying to load a recovery I flashed manually because the flash recovery option in the AIO wasn't working.

---------Update---------
Was using TWRP for wrong Model(M7 instead of M7wls)
Fixed and worked! Whoo-hoo!
So while having twenty tabs open and sifting through a bunch of dead threads and guides with dead links. I ended up downloaded a stock rom from the main htc one forum and didn't notice. I thought I was in the Sprint section the whole time.
Now my backup does not work, it boots but I can only see the notification bar and it reboots after like a minute. Installing other roms does the same thing so I am assuming the partitions are borked.
I can still get into twrp, I can unlock and relock the bootloader and adb etc.
My current version is 1.31.651.2
Could someone please provide me with some info on getting this fixed. The only thing I wanted to do was unlock the phone, I called sprint and they gave me the unlock code but I could not find where to enter it. After research I read you need root, and unlock helper. And now here I am haha.
Did you get squared away, or are you still out there on that lonely, over populated island?

Now do you know of a way to actually unlock the phone to be used on gsm?
I tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2491840 that didnt work. So now I just restored my original twrp backup that I made after getting it back up. So now I am on 4.1.2 sense 5 original from the ruu and just install SU.
If anyone could point me in the right direction of getting this phone unlocked and working correctly that would be great.
EDIT:
I just noticed after getting it back up with the ruu I am now able to select GSM from mobile data. Before it always said it was sim locked and wouldnt let me choose it.
APN shows T-Mobile Data cinet.spcs and T-Mobile MMS epc.tmobile.com
When I go to Available GSM Network and search networks it shows T-Mobile and AT&T when I choose T-Mobile it tries to register the network for ever then it gets registed and shows T-Mobile as the Available GSM Network but then it gets removed. I was able to make one test call and it worked but then was removed.
Through out all of this I keep getting a message to Change Mode No Network Found Select Yes to switch to global mode, no to stay in current mode. Nothing seems to be working though.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me figure this out.
Hmm seems to have stuck this last time I selected T-Mobile. We will see how long it last. I just want to make sure I have done everything correctly. I would like to get updated to the latest stock plus root rom.
Here are some screenshots.

I don't think so. Actual 'rooting' takes place within a rooted ROM, but you have to unlock your bootloader first, and even that is not a one-click process. MAYBE if you get the HTC dev unlock code file via email, and place it in a certain folder on your PC, there may be a script out there that could do the rest, but that of course requires a PC with proper ADB and HTC driver setup. Bottom line is I don't think it can be done without a PC.
