bootloop after flashing firmware.zip? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

so, i just flashed the modified firmware.zip for 3.09 with twrp recovery, and everything was a success, until i rebooted..now im stuck in a bootloop.
bootloop as in the splashscreen when you turn on the device shows, and then it restarts
i followed everything right, relocked bootloader, etc etc
im soff, i once flashed a custom hboot (without the warning text), but i dont think that should be a problem with soff..
i have super cid, so what did i do wrong? and what can i do to fix it?
i was thinking of flashing cwm and restoring a previous backup i made, but when i try flashing it, it says "not allowed', so i cant even get cwm recovery.
so basically my question is, how do i get out of this bootloop after flashing the latest firmware.zip?

Maybe you can't flash a recovery because you are relocked?

twrp flashed fine..just cant get cwm to flash..so that shouldnt be the problem. regardless, how can i get out of this bootlooop

You can't flash cwm because you relocked the boot loader.
You're stuck in a bootloop because you can't have a locked boot loader and custom recovery. It will always cause a bootloop.
Unlock the boot loader and it will boot fine.

[Q] Force close and hangs after installing any custom Roms

i Unlocked the bootloader form HTCDev.com according to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1337105 guide to the point but after unlocking the bootloader i installed RunnyDroid v5.1 it gave me force closes of almost every app and even the screen hung while locking or unlocking the mobile (the power button ) .,,,so i tried virtuos rom even that gave me the same thing...what could be the reason ..??? rom is not overclocked and i have HBoot 2.000 my incredible s is S-ON by the way
I think the kernel(boot.img) doesn't installed very well because S-on with unlocked devices must flash the boot.IMG via the computer manually.
Command here
"fastboot flash boot boot.IMG"

have already done that the issue stated is after installing the kernel from the command promt
Which recovery you have installed?
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA
Revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4
Try to install 4EXTrecovery. Revolutionary recovery is too old.

But can the recovery be an issue..???? can i directly flash 4ext recovery over CWM ..???
Maybe a filesystem problem. Now all roms are preformatted the devices with ext4 fiflesystem for a better performance. I think revolutionary recovery doesn't support ext4 so the FC problem is occurred.
Also Android Revolution HD will flash the latest recovery after install the Rom. This Rom is modified from the stock. So the Rom may boot successfully. For more details, take a look on its description and the changelog.

Yes the recovery can be an issue. CWM 4.01 is an older version. For ARHD you definitely need 4Ext recovery.
Or you can extract the zip file and flash the recovery manually.
Command here
"fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

Just go on 4ext.net on your phone and download the updater. Then click install and it will over write your old recovery with the latest one

Thanks Brother...lets hope now it wont force close every now and then
I'm using hboot 1.16. I did flashed the runnydroid 5.1 and flashed the boot.img found in rom.zip/system/..
Then i got stucked at htc white screen. I wipe all partitions again, flash the rom and reboot, it worked well. Weird hboot :S

Assistance is needed with getting OTA

I'm on stock and I unlocked my bootloader/rooted my device. I want to get the OTA update for my device but because I have CWM I can't install. I tried to flash the stock recovery but when I reboot into recovery I just get a black screen. I read that I have to relock my bootloader. Wouldn't that erase everything on my device? Either way I need assistance in getting this OTA update taken care of.
Thanks.

You should RUU it, it will wipe everything from your phone, install stock ROM and recovery
Being your already on stock rom, you should be able to just re-lock and install stock recovery and not lose anything, other than root of course. Only lose everything when unlocking

and that's "fastboot oem lock" right?
relocked it and tried to flash the stock recovery and I'm getting a failed error.
It would make sense to relock the phone after attempting to flash the recovery. If the phone is locked, system, boot, and recovery partitions cannot be touched.
Yes that is right and yes flash stock recovery first.

I thought you could fastboot flash recovery even while locked.
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
Alright well it turns out that all you need to do is flash stock recovery. I made the mistake of locking the bootloader before flashing the recovery. I could've saved my data by just flashing stock recovery while the bootloader was unlocked. I unlocked the bootloader which erased my data, I flashed stock recovery and installed the OTA update. All while bootloader was unlocked. Thanks for the assistance guys.
Your welcome. Glad you got it to work.

Figured out my own issue, just had to restart the bootloader lmfao, I am a skid!
Go to settings, power, uncheck fastboot. You won't have the problem anymore.

Boot into CWM recovery

Can't get my stock unlocked one to boot into CWM recovery. Wanting a stock nandroid before doing S-off.
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot recovery.img
Just hangs at downloading.
Is this a limitation of the 1.54 hboot or something else?

"fastboot boot recovery.img" no longer works in 1.54. You're going to have to flash CWM (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) to be able to get to CWM. and of course you'll loose stock recovery, so the nandroid will contain the CWM recovery.
How can I extract the stock recovery before flashing CWM?
Or where can I find stock recovery for 2.24.161.1?

Several people were looking for stock recovery for that version, don't know if anybody found it, but there is a Guru Reset for 2.24.161.1, which supposedly includes the stock recovery: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-161-1-zip/
Downloaded that. Not sure that is stock recovery. Says there is an option to restore stock recovery when available.
I found this....
http://www.android-hilfe.de/root-cu...k-recovery-2-24-161-1-vodafone-gesucht-2.html
Image size is different to one in ruu
Any way to verify?

I don't know how to decompile .img files, so can't verify.
One thing you can do (if the above don't work), is once you are S-Off, (temporarily) downgrade to this nandroid: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/m7-cwm-nandroid-backup-cid-vodap102-1-29-161-7-7z/
then download the OTA to 2.24.161.1, do not install, just extract recovery.img from the OTA file.

I would recommend getting s-off and then flash the newest recovery.
