[Q] What's Next after Unbrick My Phone?

Hi. there. thanks for taking your time to read my thread. I'm really in need of help.
I bricked my phone (Incredible S) by flashing bad radio and managed to unbrick it by sending to service. (the guy used Jtag riffbox)
Now, my current state of my phone is, i'm stuck in the bootloader.
It's stated Security Warning
VIVO PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT- 1.13.0000
RADIO - 3805.06.03.03_M
EMMC-boot
Choosing Recovery also done nothing.
I tried to connect the phone thru USB but it's stated USB deviced not recognised.
What should i do? Now i'm currently redownload htc sync...
Please help me. Thanks

While bootlooping, press and hold all 3 buttons to reset the device. While its resetting, let go of the volume up button so you're only pressing volume down and power. The device should then enter bootloader.
Select fastboot from the menu and then you can enter the fastboot command
Code:
fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin
this is the same command you used to unlock your phone originally.
Edit: ignore all that, my apologies. Check your drivers.

someone please help me... i really need help. i don't have much time left for now. please

With HBOOT 1.13, you can immediately go to the Revolutionary.io site and get S-Off. That site has all of the drivers and instructions you need. Please read the documentation page carefully and you should be good to go.
Once you have S-Off and custom recovery, you will be able to flash and custom ROM in the Development section.

Thank you for your kind reply. However, since after the unbrick process, i was unable to connect it with my pc, and the revolutionary wont detect my device either.
It stuck in the bootloader..
I tried to flash RUU that match with the radio (2.30.504 something..) but no luck.
The CID is htc__038.
Tried to unlock the bootloader with htcdev but can't get the token because fastboot oem command can't be used.

You wont be able to unlock because that hboot doesn't support it. Can I see a link to the ruu you tried?
Edit: If this service guy flashed your phone to hboot 1.13 with jtag, it's unlikely he used an Indian ruu because they are impossible to find. You need to contact him and find out what he actually did to your phone. What version software he used and did he change your Cid and why he thinks giving you a bootlooping phone is fixing it. Baseband and hboot version is not enough info to be able to help you.
Your PC does not recognize your phone. Do you have drivers installed? Have you entered fastboot mode?
If you're trying to flash ruu's from another region, do you know you need a goldcard? Do you have one? Do you have another phone (android or WP) that you can create a goldcard on?

waiting for device

so im trying to relock my bootloader so i can run the RUU but when i use the command to re-lock it says waiting for device. any suggestions?

Is adb enabled
Have you tried different ports
Different cords
Are drivers installed?

Are you going thru the dev site ? Or tool kit ?

Make sure you have the HTC Drivers installed, and if so, make sure that you have the HTC Sync client on your computer closed. ADB and the RUU won't work if the HTC SYnc thing is running.
If you have adb, you can check to make sure your phone is properly connected by typing "adb devices". If you're connected, it will spit out your device model number.

Help, Back to stock for repair, cracking me up aarghhhhhh

Hi guys i knew the ins and out of my galaxy S3, but need help with my htc one
I know this is a big ask but having a real bad time trying to get this sorted, but need to get back to stock for new digitizer replacement.
i am running ARHD 11 with unlocked bootloader S-off, latest firmware. and twrp on my UK HTC_001
Is there a full guide to get me back to stock, as i have trawled through the forum and have about 10 tabs with various information but its getting to confusing as to what to do first with out bricking my phone.
i tried to do my stock nandroid backup first but that gave me no touchscreen function, not sure if that's because i have updated to the latest firmware, so had to flash ARHD back to get touchscreen function agian.
i then relocked the bootloader and that wiped my phone so had no system to boot into just cwm recovery. Tried to sideload rom but that didn't work adb error closed.
then i fastboot flash twrp, and then usb otg flashed arhd 11 from usb stick, working agian.
this is doing my head in, been at this for 3 days and getting nowhere
in what order do i go about this to get to full stock without bricking
need to be S-on
locked bootloader
revone locked not relocked
stock uk HTC_001 unbranded rom
unroot.
Big thanks in advance guys if you can help.

You should be able to install a 401 RUU and then
./revone -l
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3

thanks benpope, need a bit more of a guide dude,
not sure what RUU i need, my phone is uk unbranded htc_001
do i fastboot the RUU rom?
revone-l , is to turn relocked to locked i guess
thanks

I would gain S-off and unlock bootloader again then flash this RUU in fastboot
http://bugsylawson.com/files/file/1...13323127-1031113105-release-310878-signedexe/
RUU (ROM Update Utility)
Connect your device to the PC
Open/run the RUU and follow on screen instructions.
Set up your phone once it reboots then check for software update and you should get the 1.29.401.12 update.
When you have installed the update you can use revone to set S-on and lock your bootloader.
./revone -l
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
This is what I did and it worked for me.

If i were you i would write superCID from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317536. leave S-Off as it is and only lock the bootloader and then just flash the latest WWE RUU and you`re done. Unless you have a problem with your phone and need to turn it in for repair.

Cheers guys will give it a go in the morning, on nightshift at the mo

Getting stuck at RUU error 170 usb cable connection, must be a driver error.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

Adb updated, htc drivers, HTC sync, pdanet installed but still getting RUU ERROR 170 usb cable not connected when trying to run Ruu Rom. Adb devices dosent see my device, it did 2 days ago.
No driver installs when I plug phone into pc in bootloader mode, pdanet used to pop up too, but dosent any more, reinstalled them all but still the same, even used cccleaner to fix registries.
Any advice on this one thanks.

I have a zip you can flash which will fully hard brick your phone with no chance of HTC recovery if you need it, will probably result in a new phone and not just a new touchscreen.

Man, that's dark.
Is this confirmed? Has anybody flashed this, then sent their phone for warranty repair?
My phone, as far as I could tell was hard bricked (AOSP), but HTC was able to pull up my bootloader to tell me they were gonna need $200 to replace my main board.

It has been confirmed as it was initially flashed accidentally by someone. However, I won't be sharing the link as I feel it isn't morally right to do it

[Q] Installing an hboot

As with many people on here I am having problems with 8.1 & HTC one fasboot for the usb 2.
I want to put on the 1.55 hboot to hopefully cure my problems but I am not sure how to go about it?
Do I need to relock my bootloader or not?
What else do I need to do?

The safest way is to flash a supported RUU for your phone, while s-on. If there are no RUUs, then you can go s-off and flash any RUU you want. Otherwise, you can search for HBOOTs or firmwares. Be very careful while flashing and never go back s-on while on a custom firmware/hboot.

I'm on Hboot 1.54 & I am trying to get s-off. I have tried rummrunner s-off on an xp machine but it fails. I tried with ahrd & ahrd fully stock with bootloader locked & it just failed everytime....
When I plug my htc one in to my 8.1 I device not recognised I'm using the usb 2, so I tried all the above with Windows 7 but all still failed so i want to update the hboot & I wanted to know if I needed to relock the b-loader or not.

What CID are you? Do you have a nandroid? If yes, then restore the nandroid, and try getting s-off on a windows 7/8 machine with USB 2.0 ports and adb/fastboot drivers already installed, and htc sync removed. You need to be bootloader unlocked, so locking your bootloader was a step backwards.
Do this
1. On a windows 7/8(not 8.1) machine, install htc sync (the latest available) and reboot, then uninstall htc sync, but leave htc driver installer as it is. Then connect your phone (usb 2.0 port) while usb debugging is enabled, let it install the driver. Then reboot to bootloader, make sure it shows fastboot USB, and let it install the driver.
2. Unlock your bootloader, flash a custom recovery
3. Restore your nandroid/search for a guru reset rom here www.htc1guru.com
4. Go to rumrunner.us and follow all the instructions there.
Done
Ps, if I helped you, press the thanks button

Blue Screen Bricked HTC One - HELP! :(

I tried to update to 4.4, but it gave me a blue screen. I can get into TWRP and Fastboot works.
However, it won't read it as USB on my Windows 8.1, but it sees it on my Windows 7 and OSX. I'm trying everything to get some from of OS running on my HTC One.
Please help me. I'm new to this and I'm scared out of my mind!

If you are soff then connect the phone in fastboot mode and run the google edition ruu.
If not Soff, then post your fastboot getvar all output

How could I check if S-off, and if it is S-off how would I run the google edition Ruu? I have no way to transfer the zip to my phone.

Yes you do. Start searching the guides littered in this forum.

I have S-Off, so would I have to sideload the ROM from OSX to my phone?

If you have S-off then either run ruu or do fastboot flash ruu.zip.. Look up nik71 guide how to do that.

im having the same problem
i managed to get into twrp, and install 4.3, but its not 4.4

Bascially we are screwed
I too have the problem with blue screen on upgrade.
I got the OTA upgrade and when installing it, reboots, dropping me to a blue screen.
I have had TWRP with no issues
I have the Bigxie ROM installed.
When I try and get S-OFF and try moonshine, I can not find a version to match my HTC One
My phone was bought from Wind Mobile, and ROM IS is GLOBA001
Is there anyone who can assist us who are stuck in this way?
Thank you!
