[Q] Trying to flash drunk- failed. Now what? - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Ok guys, so I was trying to flash the software on my Sprint HTC One with a custom one, while drunk. Needless to say it didn't work. I suspect that chrome f*cked up downloading the rom, because it was only 800mb, and should have been about 1gb. Now, the phone isn't working. When I try to turn it on it shows the htc logo and then boots up in fastboot. Fastboot still receives cmd commands, but I still havent found a way to flash an RUU on it. Tryed with twrp as a recovery- cant mount to computer. Tryed sending the file to phone through cmd- some error about not working radio came through. I'm cutting corners explayning all the methods I tryed to make it work, but there were a lot of them and I dont remember all. I have flashed the boot and the recovery back to the stock ones, bootloader IS unlocked. Phone vertion (as shown in the bootloader screen):
***TAMPERED***
***UNLOCKED***
M7_WLS PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT- 1.44.0000
OpenDSP-v31.120.274.0617
eMMC- boot
Jul 5 2013,17:19:22:-1
My question is how do I return it to stock condition (or unlocked to all networks if possible)? Please, I've been trying to fix it on my own for over a week now, and am getting desperate. If possible please give links to step-by-step tutorials and/or files I'll need. Thank you in advance.
PS.: Also, for some reason my computer does fails to install the HTC MTP device driver. Could it be from that, and if it is- will using a different computer solve the problem (tryed a million times to fix that as well- no luck)?

It sounds like you have the same problem that a lot of people are getting into around here, myself included. You tried to flash a non-cdma compatible rom onto your phone.
There are numerous postings about how to fix this, however, it depends on the condition of your phone which step you take.
If you have recovery installed and you have access to recovery you will take different steps than if you only have access to fastboot.
You need to have a recovery installed and you need to relock your phone to fastboot ruu. Once that is done you basically start from scratch and unlick your phone again and then you can reinstall the recovery and then flash the correct cdma compatible roms.

The recovery I can install in a matter of seconds, same with relocking. I have the lastest vertions on both TWRP and Clockwork. Which one do I install and how do I proceed after? Thank you

adb- Im not sure. How do I check? Fastboot- I think so. It accepts my cmd commands for flashing recovery and rom (although when I tryed to flash rom it failed).

In your command window in the same directory you run fastboot from, you should be able to run adb.
The easiest way to check is to type: adb devices
this should return a value if you are booted into recovery.
it will give you nothing if you aren't in recovery.
if you cannot get into recovery then you need to make sure your phone is unlocked and then fastboot a recovery onto your phone.

I currently have the stock recovery flashed on it. Is that one going to work or should I flash TWRP/ Clockwork?

as long as you can boot into recovery, it should work. i personally favor twrp, but any recovery should work.
try out some adb commands and see.
adb sevices
adb shell
if you get anywhere with those while booted into recovery you should be ok.

did those adb errors or no devices found occur while your phone was showing the twrp start screen?
if yes, then we need to reboot into the bootloader-- to fastboot.
if no then try adb shell again while showing the twrp start screen.

It seems like you need to fastboot flash recovery onto your phone again.
Here are the steps as I think they should work to get you back up and running.
**Make sure your phone is unlocked. (it should display ***UNLOCKED*** at the top of the bootloader screen)
if you ARE unlocked do the following(+++see below if you are NOT unlocked+++)
1. from bootloader select fastboot - connect phone to computer. fastboot should change to fastboot usb when you have a good connection.
on your computer:
2. open a command window and navigate to the folder where adb and fastboot are located
3. type in "fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxx.zip" where xxxxxxxx.zip is the name of recovery zip file without quotes. Make sure you download a good copy appropriate for your phone. I would use this one: http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7wls/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.1.0-m7wls.img
4. type fastboot reboot
on your phone:
5. once it is rebooted and in bootloader select recovery and boot into recovery.
on your computer:
6. once your phone shows recovery main screen then typeat the command prompt: adb shell
7. no matter what the prompt looks like type: echo "1.29.651.10" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 bs=1 seek=160
8. no matter if it errors or not type: adb reboot bootloader
9. type: fastboot oem lock
10. type: fastboot oem rebootRUU
11. type fastboot flash zip xxxxxxxxxxxxx.zip where xxxxxxxxxxxxx.zip is the name of the ruu.zip file. i would use this one: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=22926241640219526
12 reboot your phone once that is successful!! If you get the "flush image again immideately" error message then repeat step 11. then reboot your phone.
you should now be running a stock sprint phone.
you can now unlock your phone again and reinstall a recovery.
to unlock your phone the second time:
13. boot your phone into bootloader then go to fastboot - make sure the phone is connected to the computer
14. on your computer type in: fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
15. on your phone select unlock with volume rocker and press power once unlock is selected
16. on computer type: fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxxx.zip where xxxxxxxxxx.zip is the same recovery zip file we used above in step 3
17. reboot your phone and you are now unlocked and you have a custom recovery installed and you can download a CDMA compatible rom to your phone and install it with the recovery like normal. or you can continue to run stock.
MAKE SURE YOU ONLY DOWNLOAD CDMA COMPATIBLE ROMS FROM THE SPRINT HTC ONE FORUMS.
enjoii!!
+++if you are NOT unlocked+++
try the following:
step 13
step 14
step 15
step 16
step 4
step 5
step 6-17
make sure you complete all the way through 17 after you do step 6. good luck and let me know what your results are.

Nope, adb still doesn't work. Could it be something wrong with the drivers my computer installs? Because when I'm in recovery my computer detects the device in "Other Devices" as "M7WLS", and I don't have a driver for that and neither does microsoft update. Any suggestions?

Did you install HTC Sync or did you install the naked drivers from here?
Otherwise, where in the process did you get stopped?
EDIT: You can always PM me your teamviewer info and I can work on it.

[Q] Phone won't boot don't know what to do

I flashed an OTA update from this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2368907, using CWTM and now my phone just sits at the HTC quite brilliant logo. I can access the bootloader but I can't get into recovery. Tried reflashing recovery to no avail. I'd like to know what I did wrong and how to fix it so if I screw up in the future I won't have to come here. Help is much appreciated and thanks in advanced.

Were you already s-off before you flashed the OTA? What rom were you using prior to the flash?
I'm guessing you will need to go back to 1.29 ruu to go back to stock before you continue on.
What was your reason for flashing the 1.31 OTA?
Yes I was s-off, I had the stock rom, I was experiencing some weird issues with any rom I was using and it continued when I restored my nan so I thought maybe upgrading to the latest OTA would resolve them.

Without knowing what you have done since you unlocked your phone, it is real hard to say what caused the weirdness. The only way, as far as I know, for you to get back up and running is:
to access fastboot,
make sure your phone is unlocked,
flash a recovery,
boot into the recovery,
run adb commands to set your ruu to 1.29
fastboot lock your phone again
run the RUU
reboot
unlock your phone again
reinstall a recovery
keep stock rom or flash a CDMA rom - one from this sprint htc one forum only!
That should set you up again and get you working.
I'm sorry i can't explain why things went wonky... it all really depends.
I already tried to reflash my recovery before I originally posted, all it does is say its going to recovery then it reboots. Without access to recovery IDK if I can RUU.
I was able to get into recovery but when I tried to install the RUU and it says it was good but when I reboot it is still just sitting at the HTC logo.

[Q] Phone is Dead :(

Ok, first off i was soff unlocked.. i then updated my phone to the latest OTA sense 6. I then tried to install customs roms which ended up not booting and forcing my phone to have no OS. so not being able to access the OS or sideloading roms, i tried RUUing but couldnt get the side to side error fixed. so then i continued to try and downgrade my firmware so i can ruu the official htc 3.xx one. as soon as i downgraded to hboot 1.55, my phone isnt recognized in fastboot anymore. so i can not access my phone from either adb or fastboot. anyone have any suggestions?
here you are

I recently had the same issue, you should be able to fix this by following these steps, keep in mind, continuing this process will unroot your device. Thus, you will loose all of your data on your phone.
first begin by booting into bootloader, then plugging in your device via usb cable to your computer, it should now say "fastbootusb" on the device's screen.
if you don't already have the the fastbooot files required for your computer, you can download them here: ftp.qbking77.(com)/Files/OneDrivers_Fastboot.zip
after that, extract the zip file somewhere on your computer, and open the fastboot folder. Now hold down shift and click on an empty space in the folder and choose open new command window here, or something along those lines.
Now that you've done this, type fastboot oem lock and press enter, this will relock your phones bootloader.
Now, unplug your phone from usb, and reboot back into fastboot, and once again, plug the device into the computer. Just as before, your phones screen should now say fastboot usb. You can now flash this file via fastboot by following the instructions below.
androidfilehost.(com)/?fid=23329332407568410
rename the file downlaoded to firmware.zip and copy it to the folder containing your fastboot.exe file
now in the command prompt window, type in Fastboot oem rebootRUU
you should now see a black screen with the HTC logo, type Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip,
once that is complete, type fastboot reboot and once more, reboot into fastboot
you can now download this RUU file from the following link: androidfilehost.(com)/?fid=23329332407573774
extract the zip folder somewhere on your computer
boot into bootloader, and once again choose fastboot,
plug in your usb cable to your phone and computer, and the phone should once again say fastboot usb.
now open the folder you extracted and run ARUWizard.exe, this will unroot your device and return you to stock.
now, if you wish, you may re root your device.
Hope this works, if none of this makes sense, mention it. I typed this up in a bit of a rush.
also, you will have to copy and paste the links, as I have not made 10 general posts, so I can't add direct links to my post. Sorry mate.
as far as your fastboot issue, try re installing the htc and fastboot drivers.

Was gifted the One. It's broken though. Help.

Just got my hands on this phone and I'm trying to figure out how to repair it. The phone is stuck in a boot loop with a red triangle and an exclamation mark! Can't do anything to get out of it. I don't know how or what happened to get it into this state. I'm familiar with android, but I'm new to HTC.
Any pointers on where to start troubleshooting? I've attached an image of what the HBOOT shows.
On the hboot screen select fastboot with the power button and run a RUU and it will restore to factory settings getting the phone up and running
I tried following this guide.

S-on will delete device, s-off won't, so if you plan on getting rid of device, and it is s-off, after reboot, select restore device and select delete internal storage (if you don't want others to see those selfies of you eating banana split in PJ's with your cat)

I'm running into issues with the last step from flashing the RUU.exe update utility. The flash kept freezing at "Updating (1/6) sending..." for over half an hour each time I tried to redo it. I downloaded the encrypted RUU rom.zip and tried to flash via CMD prompt. That ALSO failed with a "signature verify fail." What am I doing wrong? Is it hard bricked?

Troubles with my HTC One Mini 2

Hey,
My phone is stuck in the fastboot mode, without any OS, nothing works... no Recovery ,...
S-ON, no-debugging usb, Bootloader locked and can't unlock him... I already tried with htc-dev, everything works but nothing appair on my screen to confirm the unlocking.
I'm really stuck, searched lot of things on google, ....
I used fastboot, and ADB, the first one recognize my device, but the last one not. I can't boot on RUU mode neither.
Any ideas?

The very first thing I recommend you to do, is to download the right recovery and install it via command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.zip
Let me know if you run into any further troubles.

Hi,
Frist in boot loader check your OS version it should be something like 2.19.401.2 or lower than this.
NB: ALWAYS TRY WITH MORE THAN 75% BATTERY, AND THAT FOR ANY CODE TO WORK PROPERLY, MAKE SURE TO SELECT FASTBOOT BY POWER KEY IN BOOTLOADER
Anyway, if you can enter fastboot, then you have some chance of recovering your device and because you have S-Off it is going to be a bit difficult.
First download this stock boot file : https://mega.nz/#!lEAVwRSL!wrP2hi6GEYLeJaPf2ssZo9wCtSi7E4yfyUHgh3Q3XSs
Then place this file in the ADB folder, then run command :
To flash boot file command is:
Code:
- Fastboot Devices (this command is important to know if the device is connected and accepting and responding commands)
- fastboot flash boot boot_signed.mg (assuming this is the name you saved the file with)
- fastboot reboot bootloader
Also download Stock Recovery: https://mega.nz/#!gVJE1Bxa!6SwXStAD8p-XlnQiPkRcdNo_ITFD1ykn-tN6wIBVi1I
Place this in ADB folder and run command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery stockrec.img // (assuming that is the name you have saved the file with), only after flashing this you will know if the device has any OS, if OS exists it will boot up.
fastboot erase cache
Attempt and let us know how it went...Good Luck

Cannot get into recovery mode [bootloop]

Hey I cannot get into recovery mode, I don't really know why. This morning everything was ok: I rebooted my phone into recovery mode as usually, with no problems. THEN I rebooted my phone from the custom recovery, and then my phone went to bootloop: The bootloader screen went to black, then to my lockscreen and then to the bootloader screen, then to my lockscreen... etc. (bootloop)
I rebooted into recovery again and tried to do a normal wipe, because usually that's everything I need. But nothing happened: bootloop again.
So, I went to recovery once more to perform a full wipe and erase the data. Then I tried to flash CM13 and the Gapps, but nothing happend. Now, I cannot get into recovery, I'm stuck in the TWRP screen.
Help?
Sorry my bad english
My phone isn't rooted. I just unlock the bootloader
I had the same problem
It's easy just flash a newer version of Twrp using ADB fastboot from PC = problem solved
Thanks! Can you guide me step by step?

I just flash a new version of TWRP and even the latest version of CWM but nothing, same problem. Bootloop in recovery's logo.
I asked to someone else in my city but they told me that the problem it's the motherboard

Thanks bro, but I just tried that, even changing the recovery for CWM, but nothing happened. I'm still stuck. The screen blinks with the recovery logo.
I have no system, so... Maybe I'm totally bricked. I don't really know if I can flash some ROM with the fastboot
