[Q] Clockwork Mod

I seem to be having trouble with my install of CWMT 6.0.3.1; Aroma freezing (known issue) and the nandroid I made of my original image tells me the md5 doesn't match (!!).. i get all sorts of failed to mount messages when starting it too.
I notice there's version 6.0.3.2 for Sprint and T-Mobile, so how is that different to the regular HTC One? Hoping that a reinstall and update might fix some of these problems, but just wanted to check if these other versions would work on an international version.

Have you renamed your Nandroid backup at all?

Nope, didn't touch a thing. Just tried to restore the backup after an install of ARHD seemed to crash mid-install, and CWMT restarted the phone when I didn't tell it to so I got stuck in a bootloop - couldn't even turn the phone off despite holing down the power button, it just kept turning back on. Couldn't load recovery either..
Got all that sorted with loading CWMT via fastboot and reinstalling ARHD. Got Aroma freeze, but at the end this time, so after reboot it finally booted in to the system... but not convinced all is stable.
Not sure if it's a CWMT thing, or something else? My bootloader now also says 'tampered', not sure why or if that changes anything?

Its an Aroma thing. Just go through the install slowly, try not to use the touchscreen - use the volume and power buttons instead. Also, people say that it tends not to crash if the phone is cool in temperature.
Tampered, I think, is just because you have a custom recovery. Nothing to worry about.

Thanks for clarifying Still seem to have Aroma problems even when using the buttons, and occasionally it crashes mid-install. Get there in the end though, and have switched to TWRP which seems to work a bit better with the Aroma installs.
I read that CWM 6.0.3.2 has fixed the Aroma problems, but is only available for Sprint and T-Mobile at the moment.

New ROM Gone Wrong!

Okay so basically yesterday I got my lovely spanking HTC ONE (m7) and quickly proceeded to downloading the One_All-In-One_Kit, uncloked the bootloader and rooted the phone successfully.
I then proceeded to download ARHD and flash it accordingly, everything went swimmingly, the ROM installed via Aroma as it should, yep all nice and dandy. NO! After the installation, I rebooted, get to the HTC bootscreen, I'm presented with a nice new red message at the bottom and then the phone restarts itself, tries to enter recovery, that doesn't work, then it tries booting up again and does the same thing over and over.
I've flashed the ROM several times and get the same thing each time. I've tried RGUI and get the same sort of thing with that only with RGUI the phone doesn't try rebooting into recovery it just stays on the HTC bootscreen.
I'm desperate for help on this so please, if anyone has any insight it would be highly appreciated.

I hope you're not also flashing any of the custom kernels on here....cos they're not compatible with 4.2.2

Nope not flashing anything else but the ROM itself..

after flashing did you try "fastboot erase cache" ?
sometimes that helps when phones get stuck on the HTC logo after a rom flash.

Use the toolkit to erase cache
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium

Yeah done that several times too. Can't seem to work out why it isn't working and I too can't find the correct RUU for my device meaning I can't even take it back to stock

try to hold power + volume down to get into the bootloader to get back into recovery. Once in recovery factory reset, erase cache, erase dalvik, and reflash the rom.
also download the andorid SDK for fastboot and adb, then try "adb reboot bootloader" if you can not get back into the bootloader to get into recovery
My friend had his do this loop as well, we had trouble getting it into recovery, but held the button combo of power and vol down several times (probably 10) and it FINALLY booted into the custom Clockwork recovery, then we reflashed and it worked like a charm.

Also try redownloading... it could be a bad download

Just a word of advice. Update your profile to say your country and carrier. It helps people identify which device model and carrier you use.

Thanks for the help so far guys, basically I can get into recovery, that's not the problem, the problem is the phone gets stuck on the HTC screen after the ROM has been installed. I'll try downloading the ROM again when I can, in the hope that it is just a bad download. Hopefully this is the case and re-flashing a newly downloaded ROM will solve all my issues.
I'll post back with the result as and when I can.

I would be restoring my nandroid backup and make sure the phones that way first and then start again

Thanks again for the help guys, went to phones 4 u this afternoon and he exchanged the device for me.

[Q] HELP bootloop/erased recovery

So here is the situation, i am S-off unlocked all the good stuff. Flashed venom 3.1.0 RC2, was working great. The i wen into Venom tweaks and saw it had three kernels listed i could install. DLd ExperimentalX .6x. installed perfect not a hitch. Then the phone boots up. No signal what so ever. X over the bars. Then it restarts. Boots up, no signal at all, rinse and repeat. If i try to boot into recovery to re flash the rom to give it its stock kernel it goes to the boot-loader instead. No recovery possible whatsoever. When i try to do fast-boot, it says waiting for device. I am stuck any help much much appreciated.

You have it set on fastboot usb on phone and have fastboot set up on pc?
Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk

That is correct. I have the htc sync installed and fastboot ready to go. Its been used in the past so i dont know why it is causing such a problem now

This is exactly what happened to me, Sam Rom and everything. Please any help would be amazing.

I'm having the same issue with the Bulletproof kernel
EDIT: I flashed twrp again from fastboot, erased cache, rebooted, then rebooted into recovery. I did a wipe then restored back to my stock rom. Seems like the Kernel install erased my recovery? I've got the stock ROM back but the phone continues to reboot every few minutes and won't pick up service... Any help would be appreciated
(disclaimer: I am not well educated on this stuff – just getting started – so what I did may be totally wrong)

[Q] I think I fugged up my phone.

Here goes nothing. I have an HTC One m7 unlocked and rooted. Im not sure what happened but I know when it happened. I was trying to install viperone 6.2.1 and it failed and the installer suggested flasing the latest TWRP and try again. I hit ok and my phone rebooted straight to the bootloader. I tried a reboot- straight to bootloader. I tried to go into recovery- straight to bootloader. I tried factory reset- straight to bootloader. I only had access to the bootloader. I eventually found Hasoon2000s All One Tool and flashed a recovery. Made sure I had the latest TWRP and tried viperone again. It installed correctly and I rebooted. Once it loads all I get is a lock screen that I can unlock then a white screen that says htc. It will then force restart and the same thing happens again. Next I tried Paranoid Android. It loads fully but will force restart after a few minutes. I quickly looked at my phone status inbetween restarts and everything network, mobile network type, service state, imei,imei sv are all unknown. Basically no service. Next I flashed the latest CWM recovery. I installed the latest MIUI rom. It installed and during set-up it tried looking for my SIM card and force restarts. It will re-boot and go right back to searching for the SIM card. Rinse and repeat. Next I downloaded CM11 and installed that. Thankfully that does not force restart at all but my phone status is still all unknown. So I go into networks and try mobile plan and it asks for my SIM card which is installed. Then I try mobile network settings/ network operators look for available networks and I get "error while searching for networks". I forgot to mention all the Roms had to be pushed through with adb. Does anyone have a clue as to what I might have done or how I can fix it?

Try flashing a Stock RUU

Try flashing a stock RUU, everything should work fine after wards. You could try to update later on.
Try downloading this (Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_1.29.651.10_RUU.zip) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2586704
I take it you're S-Off so follow step 3(a)

Ok well I flashed a stock rom and its doing the same thing as ViperOne. It loads and I can see the the lock screen and it will bring up the power menu if I hold down the power button. I still get the white screen with htc on it as my "background" but thats all i see. And as before it goes into a reboot cycle after a minute or so.

Meh

Well i can't give you any more advice as advice because i wouldn't want you to brick your phone on my account. Hopefully a dev see's this and intervenes.

Flashing a "stock rom" is not flashing the RUU -- RUU and then tell us what happened (unless you really meant you actually RUU'd, not merely flashed).
If that' fails, you'll have to back of and get CM 10.1 running, that almost always fixes things.

Actually just re-read that
Flashing a ROM is completely different from flashing a RUU.
Also are you getting a dialer error when you're on that htc splash screen?
Also, yay senior member on thread.

You were installing ViperOne 6.2.1? It could be that that's what screwed you over. IIRC, Viper OTAs are Delta. The latest full ROM is 6.2.0. That is, what you flashed was an update, not a ROM. But whatever.
And as tdhite said, flashing a ROM is not the same as completely bringing your phone back to stock with the RUU tool. Do that please.

[Q] Bricked experts out there come hither

So i got a new lg g2 for verizon last week. ive had good experiences with cyanomod and other roms so i figured off the bat that i would install one of these. turns out they were alot more problems than it was worth. so i went back to stock rom and rooted. for some reason i took OTA. now phone is stuck in fastboot. so i went through this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142. so i got everything done and figured out (running live ubuntu so getting automount to stop was a challenge and then figuring out the new file paths). so now i reboot phone and try to get into twrp (from complete power off hold power button and volume down, release when logo shows and press again). so i get the "do you want factory reset" screen and i click yes, yes then it just goes into fast boot again. problem is now not even linux is reconizing the device. device doesnt go into twrp. cant get into download mode to reflash. all i got is "[16370]fastboot mode started [16420]udc_start() [16590]-reset- [1660]-portcharge- [16640] fastboot: processing commands.
do i have any hope? the phone is new from a third party so i dont think i have a chance to return to the seller, and im not sure if lg will take it either

added info
also, just read and possibly part of problem, twrp was 2.7.1.0, either way though im still stuck with it at this point

ok, so just a bit more info. now when the phone is plugged into windows 7 computer it automatically installed a driver "USB Movem Phone ADB port". so i figured id try to run adb devices and see if it showed, no luck. dont know if this puts me in a different situation or not...

Did you try via terminal $ reboot-bootloader you may be able to force into bootloader for adb sideload twrp 2.7.0.0

Adb and fastboot are two different programs. If your in fastboot mode computer won't recognize adb devices. While in fastboot mode, reboot-bootloader then see if you can get adb through toggling vol + or -

actually i just got a step farther.... now i have twrp installed and working (turns out version 2.7.1.0 and 2.7.0.0 both didnt work with my phone even though i specifically got the versions for my phone. now im using 2.6.3.2 in case anyone else is having issues).
so twrp is on the phone. by random luck i apparently had all the rom zips left on the SD card. so i was able to flash a known working rom (at least it was working well enough to get by...). so i flashed the rom and rebooted the phone. unfortunatly it went straight back into twrp. i dont know if there is a flag i havent set or what. i thought i saw a walkthrough about what to do at this point, so im still working on it and i will update if i can fix it... but as i stated right now have twrp 2.6.3.2 working, still no download mode apparently(ill mess with this more because originally this is how i was flashing back to stock when things went wrong), and even though twrp installed a known working rom its still booting straight into twrp (without the whole power and volume down seqeunce...)

Some ROMs won't work on 2.6.3.2
Sent from my VS980 4G using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

would it automatically go to twrp if the rom didnt work? the reason im asking is because when i was messing around with the roms throughout the week some of them didnt work (either black screen at boot, or bootloop with logo). and i would have to manually shut the phone off, then go through factory reset, then it would turn on twrp. right now the phone just turns on and goes straight to twrp

If recovery doesn't detect a compatible ROM it bootloops. That or corrupt download itself, make sure to verify md5s whenever possible.

YAY, got it mostly back kinda sorta. so i followed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696 after getting back into twrp. i dont know what this did or if it helped. then i flashed a new rom (which i also by chance had on the SD already) i believe it was malladus 1.2.9 and it worked (except i didnt put gapps or anything so it was having a fit about play... now its restarted and i have download mode back so ill just flash the whole thing with the regular rom (the rom on this website might even be older than the phone, but for me it worked well...). here is that website i case anyone needs it http://www.lg-phones.org/guide-to-flash-restore-unbirck-verizon-lg-g2.html i will reflash and post results, hopefully a bone stock phone to start over with...

As far as a straight to recovery, I haven't had that problem on my g2. On my tablet,I run multi ROM recovery and it will go straight to recovery if a ROM is not installed. I would think it would do the same on vs980 twrp.

btw thankyou for suggesting a different rom, wouldve probably been stuck for awhile without that advice. so flashed verizon stock firmware(which also deletes everything) and its 100% running with the exception of the activation (switched back to old phone while working on getting this guy running again). i feel like ive learned alot more than i ever wanted so ill stay subscribed to this thread and if anyone has similar issues when you post hopefully ill be able to help alittle... no promises though
