Good evening. I have a HTC One international. I tried to make my phone S-off with a toolkit fownd on another website, and somehow bricked the phone. It starts, but doesn't go past the "htc quietly brilliant" logo. I searched the forum here, because i heard it is the best, but i haven't found a clear answer to my problem.
If someone has the time, please help me.
p.s. i am a beginner in the art of custom roms, rooting and this sort of stuff, so please, keep as simple as you can.
Thanks a lot!
Can you boot to the bootloader by holding volume down and the power button for about 15 seconds?
If so, what is your bootloader screen reading and do you have a custom or stock recovery installed?
As Steve says, can you boot into the boot loader, and do you have a custom recovery installed? If you do, you should be able to re-install your ROM and boot again.
If not, and your boot loader is unlocked, you should be able to flash a custom recovery via fastboot & then install a custom rom to allow you to boot.

Hey guys, I'm having trouble with my nexus device, I was watching youtube on it and it froze and now doesnt boot. I can access hboot, but recovery just shows the X logo and restart. I've tried reflashing boot.img, reflashing the recovery, reflashed stock hboot, flashed new roms from fastboot. I've also tried passimg.zip, and flashing a different radio but it stops 90% the way through, and it gets stuck in loading passdiag.zip if I use the volume down button to boot instead of the trackpad button.
The graphic abnormality is like an artifacting. If you search youtube its called "Nexus one stuck on X, can't boot to recovery.", I cant however post a link.
Anyone encountered this before? Any insight is appreciated.
well I've managed to remove blackrose at least, and to get to the blackrose menu. You have to access it from command prompt with "blackrose.exe skip" while in fastboot. Though I'd put it here incase it helps someone else in a similar circumstance.
Hello everyone! I was attempting to root my HTC One on Sprint, and I successfully completed unlocking the bootloader following the instructions found on htcdev.com. The next step (correct me if im wrong) is to flash a recovery.
I attempted (using fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) to flash ClockworkMod, ClockworkMod Touch, TWRP, and even a (supposed) original recovery img. However, each time, it fails to load the recovery. What happens is the phone shows 'Booting Recovery...', then simply goes black, never to turn on.
In order to get the phone usable, I have to hold down the power button for ten seconds and then boot it back to android. Any ideas on what's causing this?

Yeah, I have tried Hasoon2000's tool, but no change. I wonder, would a factory reset help?
When you try to send ity does it say .. sending? and done or does it give you an error message.
Hey, turns out I had been using Hasoon's Toolkit for the One, not the One on Sprint! It installed TWRP like a charm! Thank you! I had been stuck for weeks on this!
Cool.. Glad you figured it out... have fun flashing!!
Hi Guys,
I need help. :crying: I have a Australian HTC One, Vodaphone bought, and have been trying for the last few days to install a custom recovery. I have unlocked the bootloader via the HTC site and i now see 'Unlocked' when in bootloader. I have tried flashing all three custom recoveries with no success. It says it was successful but when I try to boot into the recovery i go straight into the rom. I never see the 'Tampered' message im guessing i should see.
Any ideas?????
Thanks in advanced.

Try to fastboot erase cache a couple times. Then just keep trying. It's strange, but it can take 5-6 reboots before the recovery "sticks" and becomes accessible. Also make sure that Fast Boot under apps is turned off.
I am having quite a problem. I had unlocked the bootloader and rooted my ONE. Suddenly it decided to freeze on the lockscreen so i tried to reboot. It would not reboot and was stuck on the HTC ONE screen. I tried booting into recovery and sideloading the stock rom which did not work. and now i can not even boot into the recovery. please help. When i try to boot it up regularly it gets stuck on the Quietly Brilliant screen.

This will sound weird but seems to be helping people in the dev sections:
Put the phone under a bright light, and hold the power and volume down buttons.
I haven't had to use this particular method myself, but supposedly it works.
