Place your phone in fastboot mode, make sure it says fastboot usb on screen after connecting to computer, you can even run fastboot devices to make sure your device shows up on command prompt.
Then install KitKat RUU from : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358781

Can you try the 4.3 RUU ?
I am suspecting this will be because you are not S-OFF.. Can you boot into CWM or TWRP?

How can i make S-OFF now ? After flash stock firmware 3.58.1700.5 i'm can not boot in custom recovery . I has tried many RUU in that topic but not success
Any new idea to resolved that :crying:

Unlock bootloader then install custom recovery. You are not able to do that anymore?

RELOCKED is still kind of locked. Have you tried repeat your unlocking process to see if you can get it UNLOCKED?

Should say unlocked.. Not relocked.

I has tried unlock bootloader with HTCDEV and have unlock_code.bin . It process successfull but i don't see it "UNLOCKED"

Nothing shows up on your screen when you try to unlock the bootloader? Thats odd!

something might be hosed in your hboot.
Factory reset from the bootloader. Then flash the firmware.zip from either the GPE conversion RUU or extract it from the OTA zip.

Thank you! Will try that this evening. Hope it works.

Don't see why not. the firmware.zip from the actual OTA package is signed by HTC and works with his CID so s-off shouldn't be needed. Now the entire RUU on the other hand does require s-off because it's not signed by HTC...

I used the firmware.zip from the GPe RUU thread, as well as the one extracted from 4.4 ota. Unable to find 4.3 and 4.2.2 ota packages though.

I have exactly the same issue, even down to the identical error messages. Following this thread closely for a solution. Any help appreciated.

which ruu?
Since you are s-off you can put twrp recovery.img in a firmware.zip and flash it in ruu mode with fastboot flash zip firmware.zip. No need to unlock bootloader.
Also need android-info.txt in the firmware.zip, that's it.

RUU-HTC_One_GE-2.14.1700.15 this is installed and work
great after update to KK4.4.2 but I can't root it...
Also, if you really want to unlock bootloader, downgrade to hboot 1.4.4 and use revone to unlock. Then reflash GPE ruu.

Here is a firmware.zip containing TWRP 2.6.3.4 for m7ul that can be flashed in RUU mode with s-off: firmware_twrp.zip
Note: This firmware flashes TWRP recovery only, nothing else. All other firmware files (hboot, sbl, radio, etc.) will remain untouched. It does NOT factory reset, or erase /system or /data partitions.
To install, reboot into bootloader and then:
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware_twrp.zip
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Device will reboot into bootloader; select recovery and it will reboot into TWRP, then flash superuser/supersu to root.
Many Thanks

I think so it is because the bootloader are locked but can't fine a effective method to unlock it.
I downgrade hboot from 1.54 to 1.44 and have installed KK 4.4.2 google edition if this information can help to solve...

So you were able to flash the RUU-HTC_One_GE-2.14.1700.15.zip conversion RUU in fastboot, but not the firmware_twrp.zip ? That doesn't make sense, since with s-off bootloader lock state shouldn't matter.
From what I've read the 'too many links' error can be a corrupt zip, or USB port/cable problem.
Have you tried to flash the recovery.img directly with: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You could just unlock the bootloader with revone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2497712

The zip you created was intended for ruu mode if i read correctly, and the OP didn't "fastboot oem rebootRUU" first.

As far as I know (and tried... not this but other stuff), with a locked or relocked bootloader (I'm S-Off) any "fastboot flash ....." command will result in "FAILED (remote: not allowed)" or similar.
Basically, my conclusion:
A) "fastboot flash ...." (in normal mode) won't work unless UNLOCKED irrelevant whether S-On or S-Off
B) "fastboot flash zip ..." (in RUU mode) will only work if: LOCKED/RELOCKED with S-On, or S-Off and then lock status doesnt matter.
Many Thanks
Thanks for your help.

If you downgraded hboot to 1.44 then use revone, @cschmitt gave you a link. Since you are having issues unlocking bootloader using fastboot, use revone to unlock it should work since you are on 1.44.

bootloader is unlocked with fastboot not adb, so usb debugging is not required. Btw usb debugging only affect the usb connection when the phone is booted in the OS so its does not affect bootloader unlocking, fastboot commands or adb commands from recovery.

s-on, No Os, unlocked, got twrp. Cant install stock RUU!!
Hi. Im a little bit confused with my HTC__016 One M7, My phone is currently S-On with no Os and no recovery image. I cant transfer a stock ruu to my phone or twrp to install. I have tried using adb and fastboot, I have cleared all caches too. If i boot into recovery and i use twrp to fix permissions it says E: Unable to mount data and cache. I have tried adb sideload aswell and it seems to work but then always fails at the certificate verification.. I assume that this is S-On's fault. How should i proceed? I dont want to hard brick my device, i still have my basebands too thank goodness..
What can I do to fix my phones file system or how can i transfer the stock RUU.. I have tried 3 diferent stock RUUs and they all fail at certificate verification. I would really appreciate the help..
Thanks A lot

Hi. Im a little bit confused with my HTC__016 One M7, My phone is currently S-On with no Os and no recovery image. I cant transfer a stock ruu to my phone or twrp to install. I have tried using adb and fastboot, I have cleared all caches too. If i boot into recovery and i use twrp to fix permissions it says E: Unable to mount data and cache. I have tried adb sideload aswell and it seems to work but then always fails at the certificate verification.. I assume that this is S-On's fault. How should i proceed? I dont want to hard brick my device, i still have my basebands too thank goodness..
What can I do to fix my phones file system or how can i transfer the stock RUU.. I have tried 3 diferent stock RUUs and they all fail at certificate verification. I would really appreciate the help..
Thanks A lot

sounds like your trying to sideload a RUU.zip .. that won't work
to flash RUU.zip use
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip rom.zip
fastboot flash zip rom.zip <<yes two times
fastboot reboot
you just need the rom.zip in the same folder as fastboot

Basically you are trying to flash a file in the bootloader that is not intended to be flashed that way. Use custom recovery or it may be an update, in that case it needs stock recovery.

[Q] HTC One can't enter CWP/TWRP on boot loop please help

Hi Guys
i think i really messed up my HTC one first of all here's the screen details on the boot loader
and I'm a complete noobie on android and this is phone is my frist android device

PC: Windows 7 Ultimate
The story is I tried to root my device using this tutorial in youtube from zedomax
and it was a success without trouble,
So I tried to install a custom ROM ViperOne_6.2.0.zip
and its where everything got messed up when the installation returned an error during installation
I tried reinstalling and i think i wiped all the data on the storage including the backup using the TWRP wipe button including OS files
after several attempts i was able to re enter TWRP and/or CWP trying to install via Sideload command but failed
i cant load zip files via my PC too because my pc cant read/write the storage of my phone. (I installed USB drivers and phone is detectable on device manager)
now the bootloader have this error Active cmdline overflow! (1094 Bytes)
Since I'm a real newbie in android may I kindly ask a step-by-step instruction on how can i recover if possible from this trouble.
I would really appreciate everyone's help from this forum.
here's a guide to fix that active cmdline overflow, you messed up one of your partitions and your phone wont work until you fix that issue, you need to follow that guide to the letter, do not skip any parts, read it all first and understand it, if you get any of the commands wrong you could end up with a complete brick so copy and paste them.

Thank you for the quick reply,
I tried to install "fastboot flash recovery twrp-recovery-2.7-m7-nobcb.img" on fastboot. It installed correctly
when I erased cache then rebooted the fast booth, the "Active cmdline overflow! (**** Bytes)" error was gone
but when i enter recovery, it reboots again to fastboot and the error reappears.
and the cycle repeats again.
I can't get past this
one more thing...I noticed that you used a different adb C:\ADB3> is there a version 3 or is it just a folder name?
when I try to detect device in fastboot:
D:\HTCOne recover\HTCOneRoot>fastboot devices
FA32GW9**** fastboot
but when i try to use the same command on adb:
D:\HTCOne recover\HTCOneRoot>adb devices
List of devices attached
nothing on the list. And ADB commands don't work because it can't recognize the device.
I really need your help. Thanks in Advance
I would like to add that I can't access the phone storage through my PC
one more thing...
how would I know if i got these?
from the guide
"Well you need adb commands, root and busybox... which are only available in a custom recovery or a rooted ROM (with USB debugging enabled)"
1. adb commands
2. root and
3. busybox
4. custom recovery or a rooted ROM (with USB debugging enabled)
which are only available in a custom recovery or a rooted ROM (with USB debugging enabled)"

adb only works from custom recovery or from a booted rom with usb debug on. adb will not works from bootloader and you will not see phone storage from bootloader.

I install "fastboot flash recovery twrp-recovery-2.7-m7-nobcb.img" on fastboot. It installed correctly but it wont enter recovery mode
First of all you will know if you are running a booted Rom if your phone boots up lol, in your case, yours doesn't, so ignore this and usb debugging.
Fastboot commands only work in bootloader.
Adb commands for you will only work inside recovery.
You must get into recovery to use adb to fix your phone, the reason you apprear to not be able to get in is because of your hboot version, you need to downgrade it, however I leave this completely in your hands and won't be held responsible if you brick your phone, simply, if you flash even the slightest wrong hboot, you'll have a brick, read the rest of that thread after the instructions, your same issue is in that thread.

ADB commands = Usable from custom recovery mode or from a normally booted phone (not your case)
FASTBOOT commands = Usable only from bootloader, where you currently are. You can't use adb here

[Q] M7 bricked! stuck in bootloader/fastboot, cant flash anything or access recovery

Hi there.
My phone is a m7_ul, with s-on, Hboot unlocked.
Code:
***TAMPERED***
***UNLOCKED***
M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.56.0000
RADIO-4a.26.3263.05
OpenDSP-v32.120.274.0909
OS-4.19.161.11
eMMC-boot 2048MB
Mar 5 2014, 15:58:33.0
My phone has been bricked for a while. Originally water damaged, it at first wouldn't take any custom roms or wouldn't set back to stock, but eventually I managed to get it there and it was working fine, except that at random the phone died or rebooted. Eventually I tried putting a custom ROM on it again, and that didn't quite work, because of the phone randomly rebooting. And I guess here is where I went wrong (I can literally imagine you guys flinch when I say this): I hit 'factory recovery' in bootloader.
So now I can't do anything, besides going from hboot/bootloader onto 'fastboot' (and 'show barcode'). Going from hboot/bootloader onto 'recovery' brings me to fastboot. Even 'power down' or 'reboot bootloader' from fastboot brings me back to fastboot. Sometimes at random times the phone becomes unresponsive even in fastboot so that I have to do a hard reset with power and vol-down keys. The phone charges fine, only switches off when the battery is flat. As soon as it has enough power it goes into fastboot mode.
Plugged into my win8 machine it shows in device manager as 'my htc' (but not on the 'this pc'-view!).
In fastboot, I get the serial number when I enter 'fastboot devices', which is great. With 'fastboot getvar all' I get the following:
Code:

Remove the imei and serialno from your post.
Since you are on Win 8, you might try Win 7 or Ubuntu (nkk71 has instructions Q5).
I don't know of a way to recover what's there, maybe someone else will have a suggestion. You can always flash in, oemRUU mode, a signed RUU and later flash recovery. But, you will lose all of your data, pic, music, etc.
There are certainly other ways to recover. Anyone?

not sure how that would help me? the phone is being detected and displays as 'my htc' in the windows device manager as well as with the "fastboot devices" command.
this is not the problem.
the problem is that i can't flash anything because of the returned error (image update error), which needs to be fixed but i dont know how

I don't mind losing all my data. I think the phone is pretty bricked as it is, so if I could get it to work with your help, that'd be a win. Screw keeping the data haha.
I will try flashing the ROM you linked to and get back to you.

What do you mean with that? How do I do that? I can't get into recovery (as I cant flash that via the fastboot command) so I cant adb push/sideload
Please help

This rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2676986) will leave you with a 1.54 hboot, so you won't downgrade to 1.44 and get stuck as the previous poster suggests.

No you can't flash that one. You will have to find a signed RUU that matches your VODAP102 cidnum and your model number. Here's the link describing how to flash an RU in fastboot: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251800.

Am I right in assuming that there isn't any RUU for my cid etc. needs? Haven't been able to found one yet maybe you can help?
Thanks for the link as well! Guess I'm gonna have to find the right RUU first
There is a way to change your cid in fastboot. I haven't the needed to so you'll need to do the research. If changing your cid isn't a problem, heres something: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_u_jb_50_htc_europe_1-29-401-2_r_radio_4a-14-3250-13_10-33-. You wont be able to flash an incorrect ruu with s-on (security on).

your using the wrong command to flash recovery
do it like this
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
you get the file here >> http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
Get 2.6.3.3 no other
Your s-on you can't change CID and MID to match an AT&T RUU
your best to flash a Guru reset or a stock .401 Rom

I've been using exactly that command, and like I said, I keep getting the same error (see first post). Nonetheless I tried the recovery you linked to as well, and got the same error:

So I cant seem to change the CID :S
I tried changing s-on to s-off so I can change the CID. I used the moonshine s-off (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2291087 and downloaded the moonshine_m7_1.29.401.13.zip (which was the only .401 rom)
deinstalled HTC Sync Manager.
command 'fastboot devices' returned the serial number and that the phone is in fastboot-mode.
extracted the zip-file onto my computer into a separate folder, ran the distiller.exe. I confirm everything, it starts running, and then I get following error:
Code:
Ok?
(Yes/No)
Yes
!! Do NOT for any reason touch, unplug, lick or maim your device !!
Checking for updates......
Please wait....
..........

maybe I downloaded the wrong zip-file from Moonshine? Maybe i need to try this one, cause it's vodafone and obvs my CID is Voda? moonshine_m7_1.29.161.11.zip
What do you think?

i hate to be the bearer of bad news, but pretty sure your phone is a goner
can you try the following command:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
do you get to RUU mode?
you're probably also unable to relock and unlock you device, correct?

You can unlock the bootloader, flash twrp 2.8.5.0 and restore this backup: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23622183712472331 then flash back the stock 6.09.401.5 recovery.
Or
Keep the bootloader relocked and flash the 7.19.401.2 RUU: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/general/lollipop-ruu-zip-small-collection-t3053944
btw remove your imei and serialno from your post above.

43283 kb only? Its 42 Mb only, you are either not flashing the right file or the file is corrupted. The 7.19.401.2 ruu is 1.56 Gb so fastboot should report:

looks like your bootloader was relocked with a custom recovery. You can't unlock the bootloader if a custom recovery is installed and you can't boot to your custom recovery if the bootloader is relocked. You will have to reflash the stock firmware.
download the firmware from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23622183712460395
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip 6.09.401.5_signed_firmware.zip

then get a new unlock_code.bin

Well its very strange, with s-on and relocked bootloader you should be able to flash this firmware. Don't know why the signature verification is failing. Try with this one: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23622183712462447
or this one: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23622183712459334
You can also try to extract the firmware.zip from this ota: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23622183712458585 and flash it
and always make sure your MD5 match before flashing.
