Hi, I'm new to this whole Android business, and got a HTC One about a month ago. I rooted + unlocked my bootloader + flashed with ARHD. Everything was going fine till about a few hours ago, when my phone restarted by itself and basically entered a constantly restarting loop. It'll get to the main page, where I can see the top status bar (i.imgur.com/rLbIFVl.jpg) and then restart. I guess the easiest solution would be to do a factory reset, but I have data on the phone that I need. Is there a way to retrieve this data without losing it? I can get into recovery and make a backup and everything, but the problem is I can't access the data on my phone...
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Reflash ARHD, AFAIK, it wont wipe your /data partition.. Good luck!

Reflashing didn't work. I managed to back up my data, but now I don't know what to do. I tried a factory reset, flashed back to stock, and still no go.
Hope someone can help!
Do you have an RUU for your region/carrier? Flash the RUU if you can.. Or else search for a nandroid and flash it from recovery..

I used a nandroid backup I made when I first got my phone. I'm not sure if I screwed up somehow, but it's not working either...
Can you explain what exactly happens? And a little more details about your phone..

My phone boots up, but only to the screen as per the attached image. Then a couple of mins later, it restarts again. In an endless cycle.
As for details, what other details do you need?
Try downloading a fresh ROM (try trickdroid or sth), check the file hashes after you're done downloading. Boot into TWRP, do a full wipe, it will wipe the phone clean. Then ADB sideload the ROM (Google it) and then flash.. That should work.. :thumbup:

I keep having to flash my backup because every time I flash a script or have to force reboot my phone, when the phone boots everything force closes and the phone is totally unusable. Any help on how to solve this would be very much appreciated :thumbup::thumbup::banghead:

I've tried that mate. I've deleted all backups and done fresh installs of a few different roms, but to no avail. It's got to the point that I have to keep updating my backups because the phone becomes unusable so often

If nothing helps then you can try this as the last option. You can reflash your firmware via Odin then custom recovery after rooting your phone and finally the custom rom you are using.

How exactly you perform clean install? And what scripts you flash?
Try going back to a stock ROM release, then flash CWM via ODIN and from there, a rom of your choice

I flashed SlaidyBoostV2.3, it made my phone completely unusable. I flashed the Beats script too, and that had the same effect.
I perform a clean install by wiping data and cache/dalvik. Then I flash the rom and repeat the wiping process. Am I doing something wrong?

I'm having trouble getting the stock firmware for my phone. It says the firmware is for SIM unlocked phones, and my phone is locked to one network. Looks like I'm gonna have to get my phone unlocked. I'll do this as a last resort if I can't find a solution.

so i downloaded twrp flashed it everything is going good and then i back up everything and i then delete cache and facory reset in trwp which is data wipe and system wipe. ( i assume this is why i got this bootloop)
then i flashed desensed rom and i just have been on the boot up screen for like 10 minutes now. any suggestions?

Try to reflash the recovery , if that don't work relock the bootloader and run the stock ruu and get you back up and running then unlock again and flash recovery then restore the backup . The toolkit makes this process only a few minutes .
Also might wanna try fast boot flashing the kernel cause it probably didn't go through

Yeah I figured I would need to do that. I mean I know how to do everything of that sort. I just wanted to make sure. I don't like twrp haha its weird I'll just stick to wcxrecovery. Also yesterday I tried going to the toolkits website but it seems as if its down
Sent from my SCH-I905 using xda premium
Yeah...wcx is a whole lot more stable than the others out there. No need to relock or anything, just fastboot flash the recovery in boot loader.

Hi.
After unlocking my HTC, installing recovery and a custom ROM (ARHD 13.3) I have a problem with flashing kernels through recovery. Every time when it starts, phone reboots into system, just after the flashing starts, withough flashing the kernel. Any ideas?
Anyone? :-\ tried reflashing Rom with full wipe, tried other roms, changed the recovery...always the same.

Sounds strange! What kernel are you trying to flash? Did you also make sure your download's MD5 is correct; could be a bad download.
Yes, md5 sum is correct. I'm trying to flash anything strange is that after full wipe and reflashing Rom I can flash anything before first boot. After first boot can't flash zip files, like Rom cleaner or kernel. Phone always reboots just after flashing starts.
Once I've found that someone had such problem and formating something through adb helped...but can't find this info again
I tried flashing almost every kernel available.

I think Rom Cleaner should be flashed before first boot anyway, but not the kernel. Are you clearing cache and dalvik before trying to flash?
Yes. I even clean cache through sdk :-\ yep, the Rom cleaner should be flashed before first boot, but anyway it shouldn't reboot even later as I think.

Weird
Just for the sake of trying, a couple of ideas:
1- wipe the cache from recovery (not fastboot) and also wipe dalvik, then immediately flash kernel
2- perhaps there's a permission issue with the zip(s) / folder(s)
EDIT: perhaps you need to update recovery?
I reflashed recovery, tried CWM, TWRP...same on both think about going back to stock with RUU, then trying everything again from the start:-\
First advance...tried.
Second...U mean fixing permissions? Don't know if it's related to that problem, but of course will try.

Though I don't think custom recovery would have issues with permissions (since it's su privilege), it could be the folder where your zip files are doesnt have rw permission, and the recovery attempts to access the folder, is unable to, and therefore just reboots.
Try putting the zip file in a different directory (or maybe even the root folder) and try again.
In root folder? Don't understand where exactly...tried to place it on different locations in storage.

sorry, what I meant was /sdcard
which recovery are you using? send the link
Latest TWRP. I found that I can't even change the permissions to any file on sd card. But I have root access:-\ also tried fixing permissions.

No problem thank's for helping, will probably flash the RUU and start from beginning.

Obvious question, but the kernel is for your version of Android isn't it? You're not flashing a 4.3 kernel on to 4.2.2?
of course not I'm on android 4.2.2 and flashing the 4.2.2 kernel version
---------------------------
as for now everything's ok. Frankly speaking I didn't do anything new. reflashed recovery for the third time i believe, did the full wipe also few times, flashed arhd, rom cleaner and the kernel one by one and it works...for now
---------------------------
and no..it's still the same. After first boot, I rebooted into recevery, tried to flash different zip and what....and reboot just after flashing:/ it makes me sick...:/
Thanks to one and all. I was facing the same issue of being unable to install the Bulletproof kernel on my HTC One having ViperOne 4.2.0 custom rom and TWRP 2.6.3.3 recovery.
I followed the advice here and wiped 'Dalvik cache' and 'cache' and (without rebooting) directly dirty flashed the Bulletproof kernel which did the trick.
Hope this helps someone else too.
Got the same problem. Tried with TWRP 2.6.6.3, 2.6.6.4 & actual CWM with failed tries to flash kernel,bootscreens,themes & the 360 camera fix.
Also tried to flash these recovery via fastboot and at least the m7&m7ul versions.
It happens suddenly
Btw: i'm on an tampered,unlocked hboot 1.54
Any help or ideas are much appreciated

Hi Guys. This is the link for Android Revolution HD 30.0 for HTC ONE with Sense 5.5 and Android 4.3. I have an international HTC ONE with android revolution HD 12.1 by mike1986 and android ver 4.2.2 . I would be very grateful if any one gives a tutorial on how to flash this rom on my htc one. I am asking for a tutorial because last time (when flashing my previous rom) my phone got nearly bricked (no wifi , no storage were the least of my worries) . I managed to unbrick the phone somehow but this time i want a proper tutorial. PLZ anyone post this tutorial. I will give a thanks to one who posts it...(I have already downloaded Android_Revolution_HD-One_30.0zip file) And i have a TWRP recovery..
You need to unlock bootloader, install custom recovery, makijg a preliminary assumption you have done so. Download the file. It will be in the download folder. Once downloaded boot up recovery CWRM or TWRP, whichever you installed. Make sure you have a NAND backup of existing ROM yoyu are currently using, safety measure.
Wipe data/ factory reset via recovery
Wipe cache partition
Wipe dalvic/cache
Install zip from sd card
Search for Android_Revolution_HD-One_30.0.zip in download folder
Follow Aroma Installer Option
Reboot
Wait for full boot may take a few minutes, be patient
BTW if you experience boot loop which you shouldnt just hold down power button for 15 seconds. Once phone turns off hold down volume down and it will boot into bootloader.
From there volume down to recovery option and try again

Reflash the ROM, without wipe (ie dirty flash), and don't select PureX in Aroma. It's not compatible yet.

Could use some advice here guys. I'm stuck in bootloop from simply backing up my system. It seems anything I do in twrp other than doing a reflash of the Rom and gapps is bootlooping me. Again I can flash fresh and start over but I can't do anything else in twrp without a loop. I even tried restoring the phone to the backup that I made just before the loop

From bootloader, enter the following fastboot command:

See if that helps.
