Hey I tried installing a 4.4 rom, got a boot loop recovery keeps crashing and I can get into fastboot now.
The computer is recognizing the phone and I can use fastboot to flash a new recovery but CWM and TWRP recoveries continue to crash on reboot... What can I do?
S-On or s-off ?
either way your best bet is an RUU. the GPE RUU if your s-off or the proper carrier/region RUU if your s-on.

Thank you for the reply, I believe it is s-On the top of the bootloader screen shows tampered & unlocked..
if it doesn't say s-off and you don't remember doing S-off then you're s-on.
What is your CID? you'll need to track down an RUU that matches. Also since your s-on you can only go up in versions, not down so you have to match the mainver.

What hboot do you have
1. Download a fresh copy of the latest twrp 2.6.3.3 from here ------> http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
2. Throw that recovery image into your fastboot folder and rename it twrp
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot reboot-bootloader
Sometimes that erase cache command does the trick

Not really bro. Try to sideload any ROM, I'd shoot for a GE ROM since its a little smaller. As soon as you can get into an OS I hope you try to s-off lol. If you were s-off your problem would be fixed

I am S OFF, UNLOCKED.
When I boot into bootloader and into fastbootmode, as soon as i connect the cable to my phone, the fastboot USB mode freezez... No keys work that time...I have to press and hold power button for a few seconds in order to reboot the phone. This happen always with me.
I wanted to backup my Stock recovery by booting into custom recovery using this command fastboot boot name_of_your_custom_recovery.img . It sends the recovery and everything is okay on the PC, but nothing happens on the phone.
But I did flash the unlock.bin via fastboot, that way it works....I am not getting what the problem is.
I need to backup my STOCK RECOVERY (HTC CID_J15) before flashing CWM.
ANy help would be appreciated.

Not sure about your fastboot issue, but just an FYI if you have upgraded your firmware and now have hboot 1.54 you can no longer use the command
Code:
fastboot boot name_of_your_custom_recovery.img
to boot to a non installed recovery. That can only be done with the older 1.44 hboot.
Since you have s-off, if you can get fastboot working, you should be able to flash hboot 1.44 if you the need the ability to boot a non installed recovery.

Could go a few different routes. First there are tons of users who posted the stock recovery on XDA and other sites. Also it could be pulled from the RUU if you device has one or one of the posted nandroid backups. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39588860)
This site has the original retail dump which has the stock recovery:
http://www.modaco.com/topic/361407-htc-one-retail-release-dump/
You have s-off, so you can downgrade back to hboot 1.44 and boot a custom recovery. Just flash the stock 1.44 hboot from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2316726
When finished you can leave hboot 1.44 or flash back up to 1.54.
Lastly if you have root you can look around (Will have to search) for how to pull the recovery.img like a system dump.
Best of luck.

No there are differences for some of the different models and carriers. You will have to match your CID to one of the nandroids or find the proper RUU.
The stock recovery was updated in 2.24 I think, but I am not positive since I didn't ever use it.
It will only take a few minutes to flash the hboot to 1.44 so that you can boot a recovery and take a backup for yourself. I would recommend that method.

Um, not sure where your getting that but just flashing stock hboots will not brick your phone. I have switched my hboot around between like 4 different versions 10+ times to test some things after the firmware upgrades.
Even the modified one are no problem.
Oh well. Good luck.
I know, two very bad mistakes. I was excited. First thing I did wrong was install a GE kernel when I should have installed a sense one..then I used fast boot to write TWRP to my boot image by accident instead of recovery. I tried to update RUU using fastboot, but I keep getting errors. I cant mount my internal storage, can't side load either.
Whenever I reboot, I boot into TWRP instead of system now. I probably have to restore, but not being able to RUU or side load, I dont know what to do. Please help!

Just boot into fastboot and flash a new boot.img which matches your ROM
Thanks! But where do I get a boot.img file? I tried looking but couldn't find one. I could just find ZIP ROMs and RUUs

Yes. You also should flash stock recovery before you flash the RUU, just to make sure everything goes right.

The RUU flashes the stock recovery so you don't need this. You don't even need the boot.img if you're going to flash an RUU. Just connect the phone in fastboot mode and then run the RUU. So long as you're S-OFF it should run fine
Your phone doesn't need a kernel to boot to recovery or fastboot, recovery has its own kernel built in... Just goto fastboot and flash a new boot.img
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Hboot_signedbyaa.img isn't a boot.img it's a hboot

Hi mate, in your signature I red OS 2.24.4018 / HBoot 1.54.0000 and now "tadaaaa" S-OFF and so on.
How did you do that? I've damaged my brain and gnawn down my nails but nothing works ....
Have you installed the 1.54.0000 on top of the 1.44.0000 (unlocked + S-OFF) and your HBOOT is still unlocked and S-OFF?
Or are u using the black&beauty ONE?
Then ou are a lucky man I guess.
God bless you.
I was S-OFF on 1.44 and then did the OTA so I kept S-OFF - sorry to get your hopes up!

Hi There,
I searched the threads available to the best of my ability, but im not sure exactly what im looking for. Purchased an HTC one used, flashed with cyanogenmod 10.2. When I tried to update it to 11, it soft bricked (im assuming) as it cant get past the recovery mode. I factory wiped it, in my ignorance thinking this would be able to fix the issue, boot up the stock rom. This cleared the OS so I was more stuck then I previously was.
I figured out how to push roms onto it, and I got the new android revolution rom on there, and when i install it, it says its successful as it goes through all the rom specific steps, but when it system reboots it goes back into this loop.
Are there any suggestions to get out of this? Should i somehow flash the latest RUU?
Thanks a lot I appreciate any help

You must use latest twrp version to flash arhd rom! 2.5.0.0 is very outdated.
Are you using a windows 8.1 computer? If yes then you miht have issue with fastboot.
and make sur your phone variant is M7_U or M7_UL in bootloader screen. (not a sprint version M7wls)
What is the hboot version in bootloader screen?
from the OP of arhd thread:
Android Revolution HD 51.0
--- MD5 Checksum: 1F9253A64D5B0A0566C8B40EC809D05F ---
You need TRWP 2.6.3.3 recovery!

ok so flash twrp 2.6.3.3 and reflash your rom.
Code:
./fastboot flash recovery <name_of_file>.img
./fastboot erase cache

then flash arhd again.

No, you'll need a custom recovery to flash a rom.
or
Use a ruu to restore back to 100% stock but you will need to post a ''fastboot getvar all'' to determine if this is possible.
What is going wrong?
You can also post screenshots of you terminal window when you get errors.

Hi Everyone
While trying to unroot my one i eventually got stuck on my bootloader. What happened was that I typed in "fastboot oem lock" in adb and now I can't go into recovery or reboot. I know I should install a RUU at this point but I can't find an RUU for my phone! When I get "fastboot getvar all" I see that my "version-main" is 3.23.666.1 (is that the right one to look at?) and so I've scoured for hours for an RUU but only found OTAs which I don't know how to use. If it helps I'm on HBOOT 1.55.
I also remember pressing unroot in OTA unroot (I don't remember the exact app name) and tried pressing restore root but it did nothing so I started doing the above stuff with RUUs.
I'm pretty stumped right now and I would appreciate any help at all, thank you!

If you have an unlocktoken flash it with fastboot flashunlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
If you dont have it, go to htcdev.com and visit unlock bootloader section and follow instructions there.
Once your bootloader is unlocked again, flash twrp recovery and ABD sideload some ROM.
After this you can start all over again whatever it is you were trying to do.
P.S. this will not get you the right RUU package but it will get your phone back to useful condition.
My advice is first you find an RUU for your phone and then do the bootloader manipulations.

Thanks for the reply! I did that and my phone was working fine again. I went to go flash a stock rom that I found and it flashed fine but now the NFC logo flashes in the status bar even though it's not on. Also, my wifi doesn't work! It constantly says turning on wifi.. I'm trying to flash a different stock rom but I can't enter recovery anymore I would be fine except no wifi is a bit of a problem. Thank you for the reply by the way, is there a chance you can help me find an RUU for my phone? I've searched everywhere but there doesn't seem to be one.

But in bootloader I see at the top that it says my phone is S-OFF but I can't do the remove tampered because I can't use adb because I can't boot into main OS!

So I managed to get my phone working again thanks to your guide! but once I went in to get my S-OFF the program got stuck on pouring 2 after I left it for an hour I hard reset my phone and now I can't boot into recovery or main OS, just bootloader. But in bootloader I see at the top that it says my phone is S-OFF but I can't do the remove tampered because I can't use adb because I can't boot into main OS! I've tried flashing different recovery TWRP but it isn't changing anything..
Any help would be greatly appreciated

did you erased cache after flashing the recovery?
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then try to boot in recovery again.

Yeah I did try to erase cache, no luck. but I managed to fix it by turning my S-OFF back to S-ON by typing fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
after that I flashed twrp again and then i was able to boot up to OS again. Thanks for the help everyone!

Hi guys i got an htc one in placw of my samsung grand
I managed to unlock the bootloader using cmd and tried flashing a recovery. However after the flash when i try booting into recovery mode from bootloader, it first gives the entering recovery screen but then screen blacks out and then it reboots as normal.
Now htc just got a lollipop update and i want to update, but when it enters recovery, it blacks out and then reboots as normal due to the fail recovery
Before i tried flashing each and every reocvery and the same happened... Then i just left it at a version of cwm ( didnt work also) .
Now shall i flash stock recovery? What if that dosent work? Is there any way to do it without a pc or any other computer?

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
I tried RUU, turns out theres no file for my cid (HTC_039).
I also tried alternate methods, turns out i cant use Guru reset as i need functioning recovery, and i have S-ON so no Nand.
pl help.

Did you use the correct version of the recovery you flashed? I mean are you sure it wasn't a Sprint or Verizon recovery?
Secondly did you fastboot erase cache after flashing recovery?. This is the no.1 reason for recovery bootloop. Flashing recovery should be done like so.
Code:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery "name-of-recovery".img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then select recovery from the bootloader for the first time load.

Yes there is one. 7.19.980.5 posted in the general section
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/general/lollipop-ruu-zip-small-collection-t3053944
see post #2.
If your phone is already on a 6.xx.980.x or 7.xx.980.x firmware you can flash it.

To find your firmware version it's best to use command
Code:
fastboot getvar all
this will show you a list of your devices version information.
You can post the list here if you need help but please remove your imei and serial number before posting for your own security.
There are 3 models of HTC One.
Sprint = m7_wls Downloads here http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7wls
Verizion = m7_vzw Downloads here http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7vzw
International = m7_ul or m7_u Downloads here http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
There are also more model numbers for dual sim variants.
You must have the correct version of recovery depending on your model. The getvar info would be very helpful for me to make a recommendation :good:
