Fastboot not recognizing phone after HBOOT downgrade - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys. I wanted 2 restore my HTC One firmware through RUU. I followed nkk71's guide to do so. So i downgraded the bootloader to 1.44 to flash the RUU. However, after the downgrade, my One isnt recognized by fastboot. Whenever i type any command, its Waiting for device........... I have installed HTC Sync and tried uninstalling also. No success.
But this laptop has both USB 3.0 ports and is on Win 8.1 Is the USB 3.0 port the problem??
But on HBOOT 1.54, the phone was easily recognized.'
Thanks sincerely for any help

You need the newer hboot with Windows 8.1.
An alternative is a Linux live CD.

thanks a lot for your suggestion. Win7 did the trick. But I have another question. Wen im doing the push adb command for installing the guru bootloader reset zip, its not happening.
What I've done is:
1) Put the guru bootloader reset zip in fastboot folder
2) adb push xxxx.zip (Ive just dragged the zip file from fastboot folder to command prompt)
3) Then I get a whole huge bunch of letters
Is it possible 2 simply drag the zip file to my virtual sd card and then flash from CWM, the way its done for flashing a rom
Or could you please tell me what command to put to flash the guru bootloader reset from command prompt
Really sorry if im irritating you

You should paste your results from adb push to get a better answer

you should look at the guide in a little bit more detail (including post 7, which has "visuals" both of the command prompt and the screenshots, so you can see what kind of output you get.
the command is "adb push <name of file>.zip /data/media/" <- yes, you need to mention the destination
here's a little trick it seems many are missing: in the command prompt type:
Code:
C:\ADB3>adb push g
then press TAB, and looky here:
Code:
C:\ADB3>adb push Guru_Bootloader_Reset_1.0.zip
then you can continue and type "<space>/data/media/"
if there is more than one file that starts with "g" press TAB again (and again) until the correct file is displayed.

can I just copy the bootloader reset zip to my internal storage through ES File Explorer and then flash using CWM ?

are you in recovery or booted up rom (with USB debugging enabled?), anyway if you can see your phone with MTP in Windows, then fine just drag it onto the phone.

It initially wasn't working thru adb. So I just decided 2 boot the phone after that. The phone is booting fine. So this is what I plan to do :
1) Copy the boot loader zip to internal storage
2) Boot CWM
3) Flash the zip
4) Lock the Boot loader and remove tampered
5) Run RUU when the phone is in fastboot
Is this the correct procedure ?

REALLY THANKS A LOOT. I really don't know how to thank you enough. My phone is back to normal
One last question: HTC UAE has told me that the phone has to be S-ON to be repaired for free. So simply running that command provided in the guide will get it S-ON right ?

yes as mentioned in the guide, however you have to do this before updating to 3.xx because hboot 1.55 is patched for that (as mentioned in the guide)
so if you're just sending to repair, and think it's necessary go ahead with s-on. after that you can take OTA updates... then again why bother, i'm sure they'll update it in the repair center.

Assuming you have S-OFF, install the Android SDK and just boot into the bootloader, then select fastboot and use the command in the first post...

With S-ON, you can only use the fake flash by renaming the .zip to update.zip and "flash" it from the stock recovery to launch CWM...

Yes, I've S-OFF.
Turn ON my device on Fastboot, it's connected to computer obviously!
If I run:

The console says that "fastboot" isn't a valid command.
If I am in Android SDK directory and run:

The console don't found any device.
Where is the problem?? Is this usable on Ubuntu? I'm use it.

See http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/device.html

If you're on Windows, have you that in the recovery installation folder?:
AdbWinApi.dll, adb.exe, fastboot.exe and recovery-X.img
Good call, copy paste error
Also if you don't have the fastboot command, you'll need to download the "Android SDK Platform Tools" (under "Tools") from the SDK manager (how did you get adb working though without the platform tools?!)
Should be under the same directory...
Just rename the zip to pc49img.zip making sure you DONT name it pc49img.zip.zip place it on the root of your sdcard (ie.not in any folders) boot your phone into hboot via volume down and power whilst phone is off and when prompted press volume up to update then reboot into recovery to see your new cwm. SIMPLES.

First, I go to "android-sdk/platform-tools" with the terminal.

Did you highlight fastboot in the bootloader/hboot and pressed power to select it?
It should say fastboot usb plug or something like that

I think you'll need a flashable zip, the one koush provides is just a img and a fake flash .zip
@Kwen, yes copy/past error xD
how can i call the yes/no event in this recovery with an updater-script?
other phones have recovery that have a list of comand,that you can add to an updater-script to call some recovery functions.
also this?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2325853 - it's a sticky at the top of the Q&A page, it happens all the time, don't panic...
"just calm the fu** down", that is what I said to myself when it happened to me, because i panicked a little too...
you should follow the guide in the link that redbull123 provide
but if your fear is taking over you, there are two other and "for me" easily ways to install a rom if you fuc*... wiped your internal sd
1 - install HTC drivers as the provided link (above), then use DROID EXPLORER (look for it in google and install it) to copy a rom into your ONE, then flash!!!
2 - get a OTG cable copy the rom into usb and flash the rom using the usb memory with the OTG cable.
I remembere when i wiped my internal SD, it was because a skin for the recovery TWRP that changes the buttons, so I accidentally deleted my internal SD lol

don't worry about hboot.
try selecting Advanced -> ADB Sideload in TWRP then in cmd command
adb sideload name_of_your_rom.zip
(make sure the rom is in the same folder as your adb/fastboot drivers and your running the cmd window from that folder also)
Hold shift and right click on your folder then click 'Open Command Window here' before you command anything.

Does adb recognize your fone?
Cmd: "adb devices" it should display your fone, while being in recovery.
If not, try and flash latest twrp again, due to fastboot.
Sideload worked fine for me, as I formatted my sdcard..

You can try it this way:
Copy ROM zip file to c:\mini-sdk and rename it to "rom.zip"
In the same command prompt window type and confirm each command with ENTER:
mount /data
mkdir -p /data/media/0
exit
adb push rom.zip /data/media/0
Copying rom.zip to the device will take a few minutes. Wait until it's done. The output should be: xxxx KB/s (xxxxxxxxxx bytes in xxx.xxxs). Now you can flash rom.zip from inside custom recovery. Done!

URGENT: HTC One m7 Developer Edition - No OS, only Bootloader and TWRP [SOLVED]

Hi guys,
Accidentally wiped the internal storage and system files, was distracted and on phone with someone else and messed it up. Didn't do a backup because I'm selling the phone and backed up all my stuff to PC before going with the wipe.
Current status:
-Tampered
-Unlocked
-S-On
-Hboot 1.44
-Bootloader with fastboot working
-Recovery TWRP 2.8.0.0. working
-Fastboot recognizes device
-Adb doesn't recognize device
-Have managed to push a stock TWRP nandroid backup for Developer Ediion by mounting. It sits along with the TWRP folder in /sdcard
-Tried RESTORE button through TWRP recovery, can't see the ROM.zip file
-Tried INSTALL button through TWRP Recovery, gets stuck at "updating partition details"
Please help me, thanks in advance.

You will need to unzip the nandroid backup and place it in the <serial #> directory for TWRP to see it. The nandroid backup folder needs to be in //sdcard/TWRP/BACKUP/<Serial #>/<Nandroid_folder_name>. You might also change to TWRP 2.6.3.3 it works best with stock roms.
Thanks, i can try this today. If its possible, can you put up a screenshot showing the exact filepath.. Or confirm if what I understood below is accurate.
/sdcard/twrp/backup/serial #/nandroid/<contents of zip file>

See attached pictures, this is the view from the zip. You see there is only one folder in the zip. This folder is extracted out of the zip and it becomes the folder that is placed in the serial # folder. The contents of the folder are shown in the second picture. The serial # is the serial # of your phone. If you don't know it then you can find it in fastboot getvar all.
One more thing. The mount function is very inconsistent. Out of 60-70 attempts.. It mounted only once properly and I could push the stock ROM to the phone. Is there a way to unpack the zip in twrp?

No, I don't think you can unpack the zip in TWRP. Just what is the file you are trying to move? Could you give the name and location where you got the file?
I got it from htc1guru database. Its the M7 TWRP Nandroid Backup CID BS US001 1.29.1540.3 .. Its for the developer edition which is the same as my phone..
Currently the phone only has twrp folder on sdcard.. And inside twrp, there's .twrps
. that's it.. I will have to create a new folder called backup, a new folder with their serial number as its name etc.

That file may not work with your phone it is pretty outdated. Can you post a fastboot getvar all (except for imei and serialno)? So, we can see if there is a better version or way to do the same thing.
Ok I will post the details when I get back home tonight.. Any other ideas? Anyway to get the adb working? I could then use revone for s-off and then RUU from desktop

ADB works in OS if USB Debugging is enabled and in custom recovery. In other words, the phone is in Recovery and attached to your computer you can run the command adb devices and you should see your serial number and next to it "recovery". If you are in FASTBOOT USB, only fastboot will work not ADB. Depending on your hboot you can use revone (hboot 1.4X), rumrunner (hboot 1.54) or firewater (hboot 1.5X) to achieve S-OFF.
Adb doesn't work. I tried adb devices and it would not return any values. Fastboot devices always gave the serial number but not adb. I have hboot1.44 and because of adb device not found I can't push revone too

This is an old method that I used to get S-OFF with revone:
Revone S-OFF on the phone method​Revone Download:
http://revolutionary.io/revone
Big thanks to the Revolutionary dev team. The original thread can be found here.
Written instructions:
 Download the Revone file above and transfer it to your phone (or download on your phone)
 Use a root file explorer and paste the file inside the /data/local/tmp folder
 Open a terminal emulator and type the following:
Code:
[B][I]su[/I][/B] (enter)
[B][I]cd /data/local/tmp[/I][/B] (enter)
[B][I]chmod 755 revone[/I][/B] (enter) (IF revone doesn’t work, type revone.bin)
[B][I]./revone -P[/I][/B] (enter)
 Reboot
 Open terminal again and type:
Code:
[B][I]su[/I][/B] (enter)
[B][I]cd /data/local/tmp[/I][/B] (enter)
[B][I]./revone -s 0 -u[/I][/B] (That would be a ZERO) (enter)
 Reboot
 That’s it! To get rid of the tampered, or relock, follow instructions below
To remove “tampered”
open terminal
Code:
[B][I]cd /data/local/tmp[/I][/B]
[B][I]su[/I][/B]
[B][I]./revone.bin -t[/I][/B]
These are other commands that you can fill in above to
-u – Unlock the device
-l – Lock the device (as if it was never unlocked)
-r – Relock the device (mark the device as relocked)
-t – Reset the device’s tamper flag.

This wont work. My phone has no OS so I can't get in and download stuff from Play Store. Also the ADB steps listed by you didn't work. ADB devices does not return anything.

Let's get a rom on your phone first. Did you have a rom that you wanted to put on your phone? It should be a Sense ROM.
Originally posted by @alrayHTC ONE M7_U/M7_UL - ADB PUSH & FLASH A ROM - DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS
Prerequisites:
You need ADB and FASTBOOT on your computer,
either by installing the Android SDK or Minimal ADB and FASTBOOT
You need to know how to start a fastboot/adb command prompt:
To open a command window prompt, in Windows go to Start Menu --> ''Run'' then type cmd. Change the directory to the ADB folder on your machine:
If using the default install location for the SDK:
Code:
cd C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-<DATE>\sdk\platform-tools
If using the default install location of Minimal ADB and FASTBOOT:
Code:
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
Or hold left shift + right click a blank space inside the folder where adb and fastboot are located and select ''Open command window here'' from the contextual menu.
You need TWRP recovery on your device.
We still recommend to use version 2.6.3.3 for all roms
except if another version is specified in the rom OP.
Use 2.7.1.1+ for roms that require "block:by-name" support (CM11)
Unlock bootloader if not already unlocked:
Thanks to Electroz for the video tutorial
Flash TWRP Recovery:
Make sure the recovery.img file is in the same folder where adb and fastboot are located
(C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-<DATE>\sdk\platform-tools or C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot)
reboot phone in bootloader mode
Flash the recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
You need your HTC drivers correctly installed on your PC:
If not, follow this guide (thanks to nkk71):
originally from @nkk71: [GUIDE] [02-MAR-2014] nkk71's SuperGUIDE to returning 100% back to stock
follow the below instructions to fix
Open "Device Manager" -> select the unknown "One" -> right-click -> "Update Driver Software ..." -> "Browse my computer" -> "Let me pick" -> "Android USB Devices" -> select "My HTC ..." -> install that
just in case, HTC Drivers can be found here: [Drivers] HTC Drivers for Windows - Several Versions (credits to @mdmower)
though you should already have them since you have been using your phone anyways
for those who like a visual guide:
okay so I did a fastboot boot command, and as you can see it didnt install correct driver
Open "Device Manager"
there's the culprit
right click and Update Driver Software
select Browse my computer for driver software
select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
select Android USB Devices
select My HTC ... (if you have more than one version, choose the latest)
warning, select Yes
successful installation
now it looks better
and can confirm:
Code:
C:\ADB3>[B]adb devices[/B]

Procedure:
Make sure the ROM you want to flash is in the same folder where ADB and FASTBOOT are.
(C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-<DATE>\sdk\platform-tools or C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot)
Here is a list of the HTC M7 roms. Some other roms can be found here.
Connect your phone to computer using usb cable
(if not using the official HTC USB calble, make sure
you are using a USB data cable and not only a charging
cable. Data cables have 4 contacts: 5V, GND, DATA+, DATA-.
Charging cable only have 5V and GND contact and will not work)
Reboot phone in recovery mode (TWRP):
If phone is booted in OS:
Code:
adb reboot recovery
if not booted or bootlooping, hold power button + volume down until phone boot in bootloader mode
then select BOOTLOADER then RECOVERY using volume up/down to navigate and power button to select.
Make sure your phone is booted in TWRP main menu:
transfer the rom to your /sdcard folder:
Code:
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/
Wait for the zip file to transfer, this can take several minutes (5-15) and there is no progress bar, the command prompt will be unresponsive for that duration. When the command prompt is responsive again and display how much bytes transferred in X seconds, the transfer is completed:
In TWRP main menu, select ''INSTALL''
Browse the installation menu and select your rom zip file inside /sdcard folder:
Swipe to confirm you want to flash the rom
Reboot phone

That file is a RUU rom zip for your phone. I believe you will have to flash it in bootloader like firmware. Your bootloader will need to be relocked.
Rename file to rom.zip and put in your fastboot/adb folder.
Put the phone in bootloader/FASTBOOT USB:
After that, type:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Code:
[B][I]fastboot oem rebootRUU [/I][/B]
NOTE: You should see a silver HTC logo come up on your phone after executing this command.
NOTE: if this command freezes, just disconnect the USB cable and hold the power and volume down buttons until the device reboots. Then, repeat the steps above again.
Finally:
Code:
[B][I]fastboot flash zip rom.zip[/I][/B]
Repeat the same command: IMPORTANT
Code:
[B][I]fastboot flash zip rom.zip[/I][/B]
NOTE: The green bar on the phone may not go to 100% of the bar ... but If you see completed on your computer command window, wait for a few seconds and move on.
Last Step:
Code:
[B][I]fastboot reboot[/I][/B]

The phone came with an unlocked bootloader. Then why do I need to relock it. You have given me 2 sets of instructions above.. One is using adb and other is flashing the ruu in bootloader.

[HOW TO] Really go back to HTC stock ROM and solve boot problems - noob guide

I managed to solve boot problems with broken Desire 500 HTC's (not booting, orange led blinking, vibrating 7 times etc.)
Just put your phone without battery in a ziplock bag in the freezer for 1 hour (not kidding). Let it sit for another 1/2 hour at room temperature, then insert battery and try booting into fastboot. If it doesn't work, remove battery and try again in half hour. Try until it boots, I tried about 15 times before I managed to boot into fastboot mode. So don't give up. After you manage to boot into fastboot mode, follow this guide to restore your phone functionality.
Works for:
HTC Desire 500 and maybe other HTC phones
If you are on Windows 7, skip this next step. To install ADB and Fastboot drivers on Windows 8 and 10, forum member @kmark23 posted the following solution:
1. Uninstall all drivers for HTC phone
2. Install latest HTC Sync Manager
3. Connect phone in normal mode
4. Connect phone in fastboot mode (system reports unrecognized device)
5. Run regedit as administrator
6. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\usbflags
7. Right-click on usbflags, click new > key, name it 0BB40FF00100
8. Select 0BB40FF00100 and in the right window right click > new > binary value
9. Rename created binary value to SkipBOSDescriptorQuery
10. Right click SkipBOSDescriptorQuery > modify binary data, type 01 00 00 00 , click ok
11. Unplug usb cable and plug again.
12. In fastboot cmd window type fastboot devices, press enter and see if your device is listed
Connect your phone directly to the PC and don't use a USB 3.0 port, only 2.0
Links for download are down the page
Your battery should be at least 40% charged before doing this. And of course, do everything at your own risk, I am not responsible for any bricked devices.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Z4U = single sim
Z4DUG = dual sim
Download 0P3ZIMG HTC Europe or Asia for your phone (single or dual sim) and region
If you want to use the RUU files instead, your bootloader must be locked. Instructions on how to relock the bootloader are below. After that, just run the RUU file as admin on your pc and follow on screen istructions, but your phone must have the correct CID (country ID) for the region the RUU is intended for, or else it won't install. If the RUU installer force closes click here for the solution.
You can also extract the ROM file from the RUU then flash it using fastboot, just like 0P3ZIMG files in this guide. To extract the ROM file, run the RUU as admin and after the install wizard don't click nothing, just let the window opened. Click windows Start and in the search box type %temp% and go to the folder. While in temp folder, in the search window in windows explorer type rom.zip and press enter. Copy the file rom.zip to your fastboot folder and use it like 0P3ZIMG files described next in this guide.
Uninstall old usb drivers for HTC, Samsung Kies, and other similar phone software or drivers.
Download and install Java Runtime Environment
Download and install android SDK Tools. After installation is complete, a window will pop-up. Check only platform tools and Google usb driver and download.
Download and install HTC Sync Manager
Download fastboot binaries and extract fastboot-win.zip in a folder on the desktop
Browse to Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools and copy files AdbWinApi.dll, AdbWinUsbApi.dll and adb.exe to fastboot-win folder you extracted on the desktop
Reboot your pc.
1. Copy the file 0P3ZIMG for HTC Europe or Asia to fastboot-win folder on the desktop. Rename copied file to Z4DUGIMG.img or Z4UIMG.img, depending on your phone.
2. Inside the fastboot-win folder on the desktop, holding down the shift key, right click on an empty space and then click open command window here
3. Boot your phone in fastboot mode (hold Power and vol – keys)
4. Connect phone to the pc with a good data cable. You should see Fastboot usb on your phone screen and a driver installing on your pc.
5. On the command window opened earlier, type fastboot devices. A device should be listed.
6. Next, on the command window, write the following commands:
fastboot oem lock – wait for the phone to restart, and on the phone screen you should see *Relocked*
type fastboot oem rebootRUU - your phone will go to a black screen with the HTC logo
type fastboot flash zip Z4DUGIMG.zip or fastboot flash zip Z4UIMG.img, depending on your phone
wait, the process is very long. DON’T DO ANYTHING UNTIL IT FINISHES COMPLETELY
After the process is totally completed, type fastboot reboot
Done.
After restoring the whole system, if you still want to root your phone, unlock your bootloader and install ONLY this recovery and latest SuperSU:
PhilZ Touch Recovery 6.59.0

Does this solve problem with vibrations from rumrunner proto 0.71 S-OFF or vibrations still stay?And can i use only disabled driver signature enforcement on windows 8.1 without modifying registry i run windows 8.1 on BIOS not UEFI and have legacy boot mode so i can on F8 select disable driver signature enforcement on number 7.
This should solve any software caused problems, since it rewrites the bootloader, radio, recovery, system partition and data partition. Your phone will be S-ON and unrooted, just like it came from the factory. I don't know about the driver signature enforcement on windows 8.1, I didn't try it. I only tested the above solution on windows 10, both Legacy and UEFI boot.
If you are S-OFF you can use any RUU .exe file if you do this:
Boot into fastboot mode, enter the command "fastboot oem readcid". Make a note of your original CID.
Enter the command "fastboot oem writecid 11111111
Enter the command "fastboot read cid" - it should confirm your CID is 11111111
Reboot the bootloader.
Don't forget, before you flash the RUU you have to relock the bootloader with fastboot oem lock command
It doesn't work. After I type fastboot flash zip Z4UIMG.img i get an error "FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)".

Your bootloader must be locked before you flash
Your must flash the file matching your phone CID, otherwise it won't install. HTC signed encrypted files check the country id and firmware version before they install. So you can not downgrade the firmware, only upgrade it. Try the RUU_Z4_DUG_Asia file if the European does not work. Check your phone CID with fastboot oem readcid and see for wich country your phone is.

When you connect your phone, don't use a USB3.0 port, only 2.0. I have the same CID as you and had no error flashing European HTC file. Try with the bootloader unlocked, try another data cable, remove phone battery and start the process again. You can copy Z4DUGIMG to your SD card and reboot the phone in fastboot. Hboot scans the SD card, and the update should automatically begin, but I haven't tried this. As a last solution, use Rumrunner s-off to get s-off (works with Desire 500). After S-OFF write your CID with command "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" (SuperCID) and you should be able to install any HTC firmware for this phone.

Download the European RUU Z4_U (not the 0P3ZIMG). Run the RUU on your computer until the wizard comes up. While the RUU wizard is open, open Explorer in Windows and type %temp% in the navigation bar. There will be two folders with long encrypted names. In one of them you will find ROM.zip. Open it with 7zip and extract recovery.img or recovery_signed.img. Put it in the location were you've installed Android SDK tools. This is the stock HTC recovery and it is needed to run the RUU. Boot the phone into bootloader (power off, hold down volume and press power) and highlight FASTBOOT using the volume rocker and pressing power. Then connect the USB cable. You should see FASTBOOT USB.
Unlock your bootloader
Open a command prompt in ADB folder. Flash the stock recovery extracted in step 3 above using the following command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img or fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
Relock the bootloader using the following command:
fastboot oem lock
Re-run the RUU on your PC

I think there is a problem with your fastboot drivers or with the data cable you are using. I will try to get the recovery.img for your phone. What is your Hboot ver.?

If you need CWM for your phone download it here PhilZTouch 6.59.0 (hboot-1.03.0001) One Sim by RealDob
Before you install the ROM from sd-card using CWM, your bootloader needs to be unlocked
Before flashing firmware.zip using fastboot, you need to relock the bootloader

firmware.zip rewrites all partitions (hboot, radio, recovery etc) and turns your phone back to stock, unrooted and s-off
Don't know about wich rom is better, I know only 2 roms for single sim, UFO and james Rom. My desire 500 is dual sim
