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.

Yeah it says S-On, how would I find my CID and mainver from fastboot?

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

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You must use latest twrp version to flash arhd rom! 2.5.0.0 is very outdated.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
./fastboot reboot-bootloader
then flash arhd again.

is there a line of code to flash the rom through fastboot, rather then rebooting recovery and installing it?

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.

If you can boot to recovery you can flash another ROM. You can use fastboot commands and push a ROM to your phone or put it on your SD card and flash it in recovery.

First you should check the FAQ and see the information needed to make a request for help. We need the results from fastboot getvar all (minus your serial no. and IMEI). This will tell your software version, your mid, your cid, so we can try and help you find the files to fix your phone

You could have posted it here, your phone is

You have to go to HTCDEV.com and unlock your bootloader to flash roms
Unlock the bootloader at HTCDEV
then from fastboot USB
Flash recovery TWRP 2.6.3.3
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then sideload this Rom to your phone
http://www.androidrevolution.org/downloader/download.php?file=Android_Revolution_HD-One_84.0.zip
TWRP / Advanced / ADB Sideload - swipe to sideload
From PC adb / fastboot folder
you use
adb sideload name-of-rom.zip
make sure the rom is in the same folder as adb / fastboot

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.

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:
