HTC One International : MaximusHD 13.0, Android 4.3 Sense 5 , stock kernel , S-On
So,my HTC One restarted randomly,and it wouldn't turn on.After 30 minutes of button mashing,I managed to get it into bootloader.
All my efforts to unbrick it were unsuccessful.What I've tried so far was:
1)Since I couldn't enter custom recovery (TWRP 2.5 in my case),I tried to reflash it via fastboot,but it was unsuccessful.All it did was making bootloader freeze!
I even tried "fastboot boot recovery recovery.img",but that didn't work either
2)I also tried to format the device,but that also causes bootloader to freeze!
3)After that I decided to try relocking,and unlocking bootloader.I've managed to lock it,but I can't unlock it.It seems that whenever I try flashing anything bootloader just freezes!
4)Since I locked the bootloader,I decided to try installing RUU.Using the .exe RUU,I managed to get as far as restarting bootloader,after which It freezes. I manually restart the phone(power button + volume down).After that RUU proceeds to waiting for bootloader,where it stays for 5+ minutes,and gives me error 171(I always get this fu***** error)
Also,when I try flashing RUU.zip via fastboot,It causes bootloader to freeze,as well !
Can someone please help,I don't know what else to do....Any ideas on how to unbrick it are welcome,thanks in advance
P.S. - Warranty is out of the question,my carrier doesn't accept phones with tampered software...Is there any way to at least remove this sign,if I cant unbrick my phone?
Guys,does anybody have any ideas on what to do?
I'm kinda freaking out,as I don't know what to do :crying:

Thank you for your suggestion,but unfortunately I don't have adb access,it doesn't recognize my phone when it's in bootloader
Is there any workaround to this?
Also,does anybody have any other ideas on what to do?

you can get into fastboot?
if so, can you try to do factory reset then flash the custom recovery
adb sideload the rom and install using the custom recovery
What is your wondrous version. If it is 8.1 then try to use 7

Already tried that,but factory reset causes bootloader to freeze...I left it for an hour like that,and it was still frozen
Thanks for trying to help out,I appreciate it
BTW,the answer to taha198's question is 7

I tried it at least 10 times,but it simply isn't working
I also tried formatting & reflashing each partition(there are 6 in total),but fastboot won't let me erase them,let alone flash them
Also,I locked my bootloader,in order to install RUU,but that doesn't work either,as flashing,copying files & restarting causes bootloader to freeze!
In addition to that I can't unlock my bootloader,as bootloader freezes when I try flashing Unlock_Code.bin
So,all in all,I'm royally screwed

Wow. Lets see if anyone can come up with a solution. Don't lose hope
Was your bootloader unlocked when you tried to clear/flash the partitions?
And absolutely anything you flash freezes your bootloader?
You might want to try an RUU.exe instead of a zip.

I know,sucks to be me,right
Anyway,I tried clearing/flashing partition when bootloader was unlocked,and even after it was locked,but nothing seems to work
I also tried using both .zip & .exe RUU,but neither work - .exe always gives me error 171(I tried it on 3 different PC's),and .zip ones causes bootloader to freeze,as soon as it start flashing files
Is there any way to get around errors 170/171 on RUU.exe?

Thanks man,I appreciate your help
Anyway,I forgot to mention that orange LED never lights up,even if it's connected to charger or usb port,for a few hours...
I have a question for you - Could all of this be linked to a custom recovery failure,as I had TWRP 2.5 (touchscreen version)?Despite the fact that it worked well for me for 4 months,it is my belief that touchscreen versions of TWRP & CWM,aren't as reliable...
Can a recovery refusing to "stick" f*** up a phone?
Anyway,personal experience is the best teacher...24 hours ago,I was a complete noob that only knew how to unlock bootloader,flash custom recovery & install custom roms..I've come a far way in a short amount of time,at least something good will come out of this
P.S. - And no,I'm not putting blame on TWRP,doing so would be wrong,as they are doing great work - I'm only asking if such a thing is possible
Thanks for trying to help out,I appreciate it,but unfortunately this didn't work...Whatever I do,I still get 170/171 error.
Also,RUU.zip is out of the question,unfortunately,as fastboot can't to flash & copy files,all it manages to do is freeze my bootloader
Still,the fact that I can enter bootloader,and the fact that my PC recognizes it gives me some hope..Hopefully I'll figure something out (I doubt that's gonna happen,but I can at least hope

I think this could be a hardware fault then.. Maybe your flash memory is just toast, so anything that you flash freezes your phone, and it can't read any partitions either.. If you were s-off you could've tried reflashing the bootloader.. Maybe you could just take it to your carrier after getting it into that state where it takes "button mashing " to boot, and act like a noob.. They aren't great saints either , they'll just see that it doesn't boot, and issue you a replacement

Any ideas on how to f*** it up even more,so it won't even boot?That way the are more likely to exchange it...
If they see ***Tampered*** in bootloader,they will basically escort me to the closest door
Anyway,as hard as it is for me to accept it,I believe you are right - flash memory is probably dead,that's the only thing that explains it...I've been thinking about it since yesterday,and it makes sense,unfortunately
I appreciate for trying to help out,thanks man,I owe you a beer
Have you tried reformatting flash memory ? There's a guide how to do it. There's a good chance you have bad sectors and this can be fixed , gimme a moment to find you a guide.
Edit :
Here this should solve your problems ( I hope )

Crap for this to work you need working recovery , damn , sorry mate , there must be a solution somewhere , if you were only s-off you could've reflash the bootloader that could've fixed all of this ****.

Well, what happens when you just boot the phone? Does it get stuck at the boot screen? Boot the phone into the bootloader and keep it on for a night or sth, It'll probably discharge by morning, and you should be back at the button mashing phase Take it to them and say that you were clicking photos and you noticed the purple noise issue, and your phone started heating up, and then it just died. That's a three in one If there are customers around, make a ruckus, and he'll hopefully give you a new phone on the spot

If you flash the revolution stock it will become unrooted, but you can re-root afterwards. To flash it you can put the zip on your internal storage (/sdcard) and then boot to recovery. I assume you have either TWRP or CWM installed? From there you can install the stock ROM.
I have a Three HTC One too and am running the GPE Revolution ROM without any issues. Are the updates you are trying to install for the ROM or for apps?
I cant remember which one it was i think it was TWP? How do i find out? I was getting a software update, thats why i want to go back to unrooted. So if i use flashify and the ROM it should work?
Do i only put the odexed zip file onto the storage? What about the recovery img file?

From the top of the ARHD post:
With odexed version you can download and flash OTA from HTC (you need stock boot.img and recovery.img as well)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So if you want to receive over the air updates (OTA) you need the recovery and boot. I don't know where you get the boot from, but I am sure you can find it if you look for it.
Here's some info on how to return to stock:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45432325&postcount=2
It's probably just a software update for the ROM that's failing. Go back to stock if you want, but you might want to try ARHD which works really well, and is a very popular, near stock ROM.

All that stuff won't work for you, you are on H3G__001 (2.24.771.3), the .401. roms wont get you any OTAs.
Just flash this: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-771-3-zip/

To answer you quickly: no, same procedure won't work, yours is going to be a bit longer and slightly tougher, but you have S-Off, so it's doable.
Just to confirm, you want to go back to original Three UK (CID H3G__001) Sense 5 based ROM? If so you'll have to give me a bit of time to write things up for you.
Out of curiosity: why would you want to go back to stock

First off: the below procedure is going to wipe everything off your phone, so backup anything you need to your PC!!
Step 1: go back to Sense 5 Stock
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001 (two underscores)
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> and confirm CID is HTC__001
Run the following RUU, to downgrade to stock Sense 5: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...1-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-exe/
This will completely return you to 100% stock Sense 5, but European unbranded version.
Step 2: go back to H3G__001
fastboot oem writecid H3G__001
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> and confirm CID is back to H3G__001
Step 3: restore H3G nandroid
download CWM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173863
fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.5-m7ul.img
you should now be in CWM recovery.
download this nandroid: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/m7-cwm-nandroid-backup-cid-h3g__001-1-28-771-x-2013-04-09-zip/
extract the zip on your PC, it will give you a folder called "2013-04-20.21.00.00" place it in your adb folder then push it:
adb push 2013-04-20.21.00.00 /data/media/clockworkmod/backup/2013-04-20.21.00.00
in recovery select RESTORE, it should show you the above backup, so select "2013-04-20.21.00.00" and restore it.
You still need to get the preloaded stock apps (which get deleted when unlocking using HTCdec), so download this:
http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?file=one-1.28.401.7-preloaded-modaco-withoutmovie.zip
adb push one-1.28.401.7-preloaded-modaco-withoutmovie.zip /data/media/
in recovery, select "install zip" -> "choose zip" -> and install the above file
Step 4: get back stock recovery
the above nandroid may or may not contain stock recovery, but I doubt it does, so get this: http://d-h.st/uGM
now let's reboot to bootloader/FASTBOOT USB:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery recovery 1.28.401.7.img (closest one to your version)
fastboot erase cache
Step 5: let's get rid of TAMPERED (if it's there) and set you back to LOCKED (not relocked)
fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.5-m7ul.img
download this: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_bootloader_reset_1-0-zip/
adb push Guru_Bootloader_Reset_1.0 /data/media/
in recovery, "install zip" -> "choose zip" -> and select "Guru_Bootloader_Reset_1.0"
go through the installer and select "Remove TAMPERED" and "LOCK Bootloader"; once finished, and since you're still in CWM, go ahead and:
-> "wipe cache"
-> "advanced" -> "wipe dalvik"
then
adb reboot bootloader
and confirm no TAMPERED and LOCKED status
Step 6: get your 1st OTA
finally (almost) to confirm everything is back to 100% stock, reboot your phone, and set up only basic stuff such as WiFi, check for software update and download & install the 1st one only!
Since recovery is not exactly your version, you may need to reboot your phone manually if it doesnt by itself: the progress bar stopped somewhere in the middle -> press and hold POWER + VOLDOWN, when it reboots keep holding VOLDOWN to get back to stock recovery and let it finish it's business; repeat if it gets stuck again
After finishing the OTA, boot up your ROM, and check you Settings->About to confirm you new version, then reboot to bootloader and do a fastboot getvar all, and confirm firmware and hboot are also updated
Step 7: if YOU decide to go S-On
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
reboot 3 times and make sure it doesnt say "tamper detected - rebooting" and then shows TAMPERED again
as far as I know, this was introduced in hboot 1.55
I really think I should start a universal guide, hmmm

After installing cyanogenmod onto my htc one EE UK model I tried to return to stock but am unable to find the correct stock files. somehow I have also installed teamwin recovery and cannot use the touchscreen during this mode?
I am able to get back into the bootloader but when I try to start up the phone the cyanogenmod start up screen seems stuck!
Any help to get back to EE UK stock for the htc one or cyanogenmod again would be extremely appreciated.
Thanks for reading my post.

You can use the volume buttons to move and the power button to select on TWRP (assuming it is not the touch version). Then to fix the problem with CM you should just do a wipe and flash the rom again. To return to stock you have to find your carriers RUU and send that through fastboot/adb, after follow Gizmoe's instructions on this thread to get everything back to stock (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?)t=2592068

are you (at least somewhat) familiar with "adb" and "fastboot"??
you need to boot your phone to bootloader/FASTBOOT USB, and then on your PC :

There's no "two-minute" fix, so a couple of more questions, if you don't mind:
1- does it matter to you if bootloader says UNLOCKED?
2- does it matter to you if bootloader says TAMPERED?
3- you want to go back to stock, in order to receive OTA updates?
4- do you intend on selling the phone or returning for warranty? (and so you need the phone to look "out of the box")

fair enough, here's a quick fix: just download and install this: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-1-zip/
using CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173863
or TWRP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173870
the above ROM is for a Europan unbranded version; it's stock, can be rooted or not (selectable in the installer), unselect "stock recovery" in installer as it won't allow OTA's with your current configuration.
I'm gonna check something, and will get back to you when I can, in the meantime the above ROM will get you up and running. (or you can choose any one of the custom ROMs around)
I'll get back to you later
cheers
PS: maybe you could give me a little background info on why you ended up in this situation, eg do you want to be on stock rom (or custom), do you want to be rooted, etc etc. and if not, how come you unlocked your bootloader
If I understand your intentions, I could help better

once I have downloaded the ROM how do I install it?
what are the links for CWM and TWRP for, do I need to download anything from them?
As you can tell I dont fully understand the tech side of this much. I thought to root the phone I could get more custom features however after doing this I did not like it and wanted to return to stock but could not find the correct ROM and so the issues began.

There are many more downloads required when following the superguide of which I have tried the RUU M7 before and failed at the final stage due to it not being compatible with UK HTC.
the last message from nk77 suggested that all I needed is the Guru reset , which I have downloaded but do not know how to install and cannot see how to do this on the superguide either. Do you know how to install the guru reset?

1- the guide is made to return to 100% stock; mostly for people going for warranty or want to sell the phone, and put it "out of the box"
2- the Guru Reset i mentioned will only get your phone working (or any other custom ROM), it will not get any OTA updates etc.
3- in order to restore to stock (in your case), you need S-Off
4- if you do have S-Off, you can even turn your phone into an unbranded European version
5- to get the ROM (Guru Reset or any other custom ROM), you can use one of three methods (using custom recovery CWM or TWRP):
i- OTG cable
ii- adb push <name of rom>.zip /data/media/0/
iii- adb sideload <name of rom>.zip

No. was trying to S-Off but am getting error message which I last posted!
Any suggestions?
EDIT: This is the Htc One (M7) btw. Guess it was obvious because of the version it came with out of the box, but just to clear any confusion.
EDIT 2: Meant to say my Device was S-On* NOT S-Off. Sorry.
So I'm completely new to Android, and yesterday was the day I got my first ever Android device.
It came with Sense 5 and android 4.1.2 out of the box.
After a while of playing around with my new phone I started checking for updates to get it to the latest version. When I first check it showed that a small update was available and I started downloading it. I noticed that when this update was installing it would first go into that screen where it shows that phone with a green arrow and a download bar, and then all of a sudden it would restart and go back to the Htc One Logo. It did this a few times before finally completing the upgrade.
I checked for updates again and this time it showed me Android 4.3 + Sense 5.5. I downloaded and started installing the upgrade. It did the same thing as last time but I decided I'd power off the device (Figured out later this was what caused this whole problem) and power it on again. After I did that it was stuck on the Htc Logo.
I went on the bootloader and tried factory resetting but it just brought me back to the Htc Logo again.
I found a few threads telling me to hook up my device to the computer, load up fastboot and use cmd to clear the cache and it should work. That failed too however.
After talking with a few of my friends who happen to be android experts, they told me that I because I had turned off the device in the middle of the update I had somehow corrupted some system partition thing and I'd need to flash the stock rom on once again.
After almost 24 hours of research, I've gotten to a point where I've almost figured it out but I hit a bump. My device is not rooted and is S-On (Bootloader used to be locked but in the process of fixing it).
According to my friends because my device is S-On I won't be able to flash Custom roms and need a RUU file that is specific to my carrier. I found out that I basically need the RUU file that has the same number as 1.29.666.17
This apparently is almost non-existent on the web. This is the bump I've hit and I have no idea what I can do now.
Any help would be appreciated.
Also note that I am incredibly new to android. Never rooted or anything in my life before. I've had quite the learning curve in the past day though.

That was my mistake, I did mean to say S-On.
I did try to get the S-Off using an Htc One Toolkit (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364445)
However right after Step 1a (downloading Firewater), I moved to step 1b (rebooting my device) it kept saying "adb reboot
error: device not found"
I googled this and it told I had to enable USB debugging, which I can only do through the settings of the phone apparently. And I can't access it so I'm not sure if I can still S-Off my device.
When you enable USB debugging does a pop up box come up on your phone when connecting to your computer to allow the computer to connect?

See that's the thing, I can't enable USB Debugging because my phone is stuck on the bootlogo.
I don't think there's a way for me to enable USB debugging without having access to there phone, or is there?

Alright so did what you said, successfully flashed the new recovery.
Sideloading seems to be giving me some trouble though.

Been stuck at that for about 15minutes now.
About 5 minutes in I thought I was maybe supposed to use my pc to sideload, but cmd said "error: device not found".

Didn't work. Ran the file, used device manager to manually locate the files in Program Files (x86) and double clicked "HTC". Just keeps saying it couldn't find the driver software for my device.
But if I understand correctly, all I have to do is find a way to update the drivers and I'll be able to sideload the Rom, and hopefully I'll have a working HTC One once again?

Sounds like you haven't read anything about, rooting, S-Off, firmware,hboots,roms, etc..
Suffice to say most people on this forum have more trouble going back to full out of the box stock than anything else.. compared to that, unlocking bootloader, rooting and flashing roms is a doddle(very easy). Suggestion...Read first.

I have not :/
I usually do my research before attempting to do anything to any of my devices, but since I had no intention of rooting/S-ff/Unlocking bootloaders I'm just incredibly clueless. Did some reasearch and it does look like sideloading Roms work on S-On devices. :good:
I have a question for you, or anyone else that knows, but the guy I sent my phone to repair told me the following:
Since I couldn't find the RUU specific to my device, I tried using a Nandroid backup that someone uploaded (This was for Bell Mobile). According to him, he says I must have tried flashing a corrupt rom or something so it's no longer an easy fix. He wants me to pay $130 so he can send it back to some factory to get it fixed. He's telling that this is no longer a soft-brick, but a hard-brick (note that the phone can still access the bootloader, recovery, etc).
I'm pretty sure this guys trying to milk me out of my money, so I told him I'd pick it up tomorrow and get back to him later.
I just want to make sure that what he's saying isn't true though, since I'm not exactly knowledgeable about this and I have a pretty good chance of being wrong.

Fixed it!
I sideloaded the rom you linked me through a USB Otg Cable. Thanks a lot for your help!
Now I just want to get it back completley to stock.
If I backup my phone through this rom and then go back to stock, I'm assuming my backup file will restore all my contacts/settings/photos etc?
Hi everyone,
I've spent the last 6 hours attempting various fixes from forums and I just can't &^%$ing get this.
Here's what I did.
(1) Phone got stuck in a bootloop.
(2) I did a backup in TWRP version 2.6.
(3) Factory reset.
(4) Everything worked again, no bootloop.
(5) Tried to recover from the backup in TWRP, backup failed.
(6) Phone now stuck on the HTC One screen.. won't load a thing.
I really just want things back to normal, as in stock ROM.
Some info about the phone:
S-ON
TWRP ver 2.6
rooted
can access recovery
don't need anything on the phone
I'm looking for a solution to get this phone going again.. any solution. I'd prefer to be on stock ROM. I'd love some help on this. I'm here.
post your fastboot getvar all please

well if you don't need anything on the phone and you previously did a factory reset and the phone stopped boot-looping, why did you restored that faulty backup? just do a factory reset and you'll be good

The backup contained all of the original apps. Thought I could get it rolling again, but no go. Now the phone just won't boot. Stuck on the HTC one screen, even after another factory reset.

The factory reset isn't working. It still hangs. I did the initial backup through TWRP. Will Titanium backup be compatible with that backup?
Now the phone is currently locked, no OS.Should I flash another ROM?

Looks like your RUU to return to fully stock
You could do with seeing if you can see this number anywhere in the bootloader 4.19.631.9 usually under os- however, radio's match

The OS is set to 1.000.000. I used some **** utility that reset it. I started clicking things... lol
One thing I'm wondering is since this phone is S-ON, will I be able to even flash a ROM? Could that be the reason that the TWRP restore function isn't working? As far as I know... SON would prevent system files from being written.. correct me if I'm wrong
..downloading that file as I write this

The phone is the HTC One m7 through Rogers. It was recently asking me for the latest OTA update. The ROM was stock, if that helps.

looks like your RUU, like I said, its a Rogers RUU and contains the same radio, your version-main just threw me off a bit, leave your bootloader locked / relocked and plug into your computer in bootloader mode, then run the RUU on your computer, follow the instructions, make sure your battery is 50% or more before running.
regarding your other question, you can flash custom roms whilst s-on, you just have to make sure your bootloader is unlocked, s-on is not there to protect system files, its there to protect you from messing with the HBOOT and radio's etc which will brick the phone if done wrong, you cant brick by flashing rom's.

Thanks a lot for that link. I found an RUU file about 7 hours ago, but it was in .zip format, not .exe like the link you provided me. This made it damn easy. I relocked the bootloader, installed, now it's all great. Thanks a lot. Can I thumbs up you, or do anything in return?

Just hit the thanks button a couple of times is plenty.
The Zip would of worked too, you just have to flash it in a special kinda way.
Glad its all working now, could you edit your title in your first post to SOLVED now please.

I'm guessing a side-load? I really like the install wizard, the RUU method is pretty ingenious. One quick question for you: It's asking me for a system update, OTA, that's not installing after I download it. I unlocked the bootloader through HTC dev using the binary they e-mail you. Would I have to unroot? Any tips on what I could do?
[edit: for some reason, OTA worked] thanks a lot for your help and especially for that magical link. cheers

No, you have to put your phone in fastbootRUU mode and then flash the zip from your computer using fastboot commands.
Glad the OTA worked in the end, but in future when installing OTA's just make sure your bootloader is locked / relocked first.
