Bootloop in ALL Sense ROMs

Hi guys,
My HTC One fails to run any Kitkat Sense-based ROM. Ive tried ViperOne 5.5.1 and InsertCoin 8.1
The ROM installs properly (I wiped the data in Aroma). But during bootup, the htc dialer process asks me to wait or cancel.
If I choose to Wait, then the ROM will manage to enter half the setup process. But it will continue rebooting and rebooting. Also, when I cancelled most of the setup options, the ROM had no SIM access. It showed 'Emergency Calls Only'
The problem is identical in ViperOne and InsertCoin.
Here's my getvar all:
But Cyanogenmod is working PERFECTLY

I guess that the 4.4 firmware is required ?? Do I need to flash that?? Or is the problem anything else?? I appreciate any help
Thank you

Try to SuperCID. Maybe that'll work cause I see you're s-offed
Happy Flashing Sent from a proud owner of the HTC One.

You can try extracting the boot.img and flashing it.

got SuperCid and flashed the KitKat firmware zip with OS version as 4.19.401.8 and hboot 1.56
no luck :'(

Any ideas ??

Flash a full .401.7 RUU and update all the way through to kit Kat official. No other ideas at the moment.

what recovery do you have? if you don't already have it, try TWRP 2.6.3.3

I already have 2.6.3.3. My phone is currently on a perfectly working CM11 M4. But for some reason, my USB OTG is not working in TWRP
It shows a blank directory. Got any ideas??
Thanks

I'll check in on you later, but just FYI:
(bootloader) modelid: PN0710000
(bootloader) cidnum: HTC__J15
it's the same as any UL WWE edition, Middle East/Africa on the M7 is just standard .401. edition.

Just another observation ive made, even earlier when I had rooted for the first time, InsertCoin 7 and ViperOne(4.3 based) gave me this same issue. I just randomly chose some options in Aroma nd got InsertCoin to work.
But ARHD ALWAYS WORKED. FIRST SHOT
Is there something wrong with my phone, because ARHD has a 100% success rate fr me, but other ROMs don't. Or are there some different instructions for other Sense ROMs?
Im currently on ARHD 52, SuperCid, S-OFF, HBOOT 1.56, TWRP 2.6.3.3 and OS version in the bootloader is 4.19.401.8

Same setup as yours: ARHD 52.0, TWRP 2.6.3.3, fw 4.19.401.8 (from vomer):
1- I just tried OTG cable + 64GB stick (tried both exFat and FAT32), worked fine in TWRP 2.6.3.3 (obviously need to mount it first, which took about 2 to 3 seconds until the check-mark appeared), then in twrp -> advanced -> file manager -> "usb-otg" and files were there.
2- if you're flashing 4.3 ROMs, have you tried a different recovery (or at least version)... if i remember correctly 2.6.3.3 was good for 4.4, but not so good with pre-4.4 (maybe it was twrp 2.6.3.3, maybe some other one, can't remember which one)
3- i would recommend you manually wipe dalvik+cache+data before flashing a different ROM and after successful install wipe dalvik+cache, maybe the installer script isn't doing it automatically.... i know it's a bit redundant, but you never know.

1) Hmm i guess i didnt mount it. Probably explains why I couldnt see it
2) The ROMs which im flashing are ALL KitKat based. I guess the issue isn't with the recovery
3) Hmm. I definitely didn't do that. That explains the problem i guess. I used 2 manually wipe on my old Galaxy Y. I got lazy after Aroma installers on this phone
Thanks a lot )
Update: Yeah, the wipe did the trick
Ur a life saver

no problem, if you still encounter problems (even with 4.4), try a different recovery (or version, eg 2.6.3.4), not all installer scripts (even the 4.4 ones), are written the same.

Does the phone boot into OS? If so, then it was overwritten during either the flash of an earlier version of TWRP or Cyanogenmod. If you were to flash a new firmware then it would be restored.

Thanks for your reply, It does boot up normally and the phone is perfectly fine so your saying it has been overwritten by either the recovery or custom rom and thats why it isnt showing?
based on this i could flash the latest firmware 6.09.401.5?
Again Thanks.

As long as it is higher or equal to your version, and if you are s-on you will have to lock your bootloader.

you can more or less infer your firmware version, from hboot version:
hboot 1.44 = 1.xx.xxx.x
hboot 1.54 = 2.xx.xxx.x
hboot 1.55 = 3.xx.xxx.x
hboot 1.56 = 4.xx.xxx.x (in some rare cases 5.xx)
hboot 1.57 = 5.xx.xxx.x and 6.xx.xxx.x
however, i would recommend you flash them incrementally, since firmwares are usually extracted from OTAs they expect the previous changes to already have been applied, so depending on the firmware package you intend on using (some of them have been repackaged to include previous changes), you could end up in trouble.
(for example, flashing a 5.xx ota firmware while on 3.xx or lower firmware will result in QHSUSB_DLOAD mode, and you'd have to try [UNBRICK][BETA] HTC Unbricking Project)
so i recommend you flash them incrementally.

OK Thanks for the advice still i dont know what firmware it is even if it is 2.XXXXX because im on Hboot 1.54 but i geuss i could start with just one increment up from the lowest 2.XXXXX version only thing is im paranoid about attempting to flash an older firmware and it mess up the phone.
Again a big thanks to everyone who has replied.

are you s-off? then you can flash unsigned firmware, and you can go straight to 3.62.401.1
i personally use these: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2365506
(in that thread, even the 6.09.401.5 firmware has all the previous files included so it should be safe to go directly to 6.09, but i personally prefer incremental, just in case)
can you post a "fastboot getvar al"l (excluding IMEI and s/n)
PS: the real problem was for people with 3.xx firmware or lower going to 5.xx firmware (from OTA) which was missing SBL3 from 4.xx (another Secondary Bootloader), which would cause the device to go into QHSUSB_DLOAD

fyi, looks like you have a rumrunner/firewater ENG hboot in there, that will be gone once you update, you'll be back on normal hboot.
I would personally flash the following versions incrementally from vomers thread
- 3.62.401.1
- 4.19.401.8
- 4.19.401.11
- 5.11.401.10
- 6.09.401.5
(there is some redundancy doing this since the versions from 4.19.401.11 upwards, vomer has included all previous updates too, but better safe than sorry)

[Q] Old hboot on Lollipop

Hi,
I have reinstall my m7 to old ROM with Android 4.1.1 and didn't do all stages OTA updates but recover backup with Lollipop. Everything is going fine but now I have hboot 1.5.4 instead 1.61. Could it cause any problem in the future? Should I install latest hboot? (where to find it?)
I have a stock rom htc one, wwe, s-off, rooted.

At this time i don't think so except if you try modding. But when htc rolls out the new sense update maybe you will have some troubles.

I wanna stay with a stock rom. But considering to keep system up to date. What is the solution then? Should I go to rom version down and upgrade to current android 5.02 and then recover backup? Or is there a place on the network where I can find the original stock hboot 1.61 and install it via fastboot? (I've tried, didn't found)

I'm not downgrading. As I said in my first post. After crashing my HTC I have installed all from the beginning, hboot 1.44, rom with android 4.1.1, etc... then I have made OTA update to 1 version up, and then I have restored whole system (Lollipop) from backup made by TWRP. So now I have now Lollipop with hboot 1.54 but I would prefer have the updated to 1.61.
I hope it's clear now
BTW, can anyone look at my bootloader screen and confirm that not only hboot is outdated? How about the radio, etc...?

HTC never updates hboot by itself.
If you don't have latest firmware, then you don't have latest hboot, radio, adsp, touch driver, WiFi driver, modem files, etc....
In other words, don't just update your hboot and expect to be fully up to date.
Update your full firmware.

And why not updating all the way up to lollipop? You will not be able to take ota updates with your phone in this state. Your firmware version and software version must match. Its not only the hboot version, like said above.

[Q] Upgrading Firmware and stuff

Hey XDA.
I have an HTC M7 currently with ARHD.
How I did it since now, was to unlock bootloader, get a custom recovery and then flash the custom ROM zip.
Now I found out that I should flash base(?) firmware zips and then then Custom ROMs and Radio and stuff like that.
After reading all that I got a little confused.
Can somebody explain me what I should do?

Weather you need to update firmware or not depends on your current firmware. And version of the ROM, I assume your running the latest 92 lollipop Rom.
Can you please post the output of
Code:
fastboot getvar all
please remove your IMEI and Serial number before posting. :good:
Then we can see if you need to update your firmware. And which firmware you need.

Your firmware is very old. But maybe not such a bad thing at the moment. Have you ever considered going s-off. If you have it would be better to do it now before updating your firmware.
Your currently on hboot 1.55 which you can s-off for free using rumrunner. Once you update past 1.55 your only option for s-off will be Sunshine which costs $25 to use. Also updating firmware while s-off is much easier since you won't need to relock your bootloader.
Your current firmware base is for jellybean. So you will probably have some problems with the latest lollipop roms. You should update to get the most out of your device and the latest roms. But I do recommend going s-off first. :good:

So I should S-OFF, then Update my firmware and then install Custom ROM/Kernel?

Yeah that's what I would recommend. S-off first
Then you can find all firmware zips for your device here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=32777
You will need to flash
4.19.401.11.zip
5.11.401.10.zip
6.09.401.12.zip
7.19.401.22.zip
If you flash them with s-off they will not wipe anything from your device. Once you have the latest firmware you can use any lollipop Rom you choose :good:

Do I flash the firmwares through recovery or through fastboot?
And do I flash them after another or do I have to flash one and start the phone and then flash the next one?

Flash them with fastboot. Put the firmware files in your fastboot folder. And connect fastboot usb in the bootloader.
With s-off flash with these commands.
Code:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
The device will boot to a black screen with silver HTC logo. This is ruu mode.
Code:
fastboot flash zip name_of_firmware.zip
The first flash is just a pre update. Repeat the same command.
Code:
fastboot flash zip name_of_firmware.zip
The second flash will flash the firmware. The progress bar on the screen will not reach 100% that's normal. When the flash is complete
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Done.
You don't need to reboot to Android just repeat the procedure again for the next zip strait from the bootloader.
The firmware updates will include the stock recovery. So you will need to flash TWRP or CWM when your done.
If you decide to update wile s-on the procedure is the same. But you will need to 're-lock your bootloader before you start.
Code:
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Be aware though when you unlock the bootloader it will wipe your devices internal storage.

When I flash/update the Firmware, does it change my current ROM in a way, that I need to reflash it?

Very good question I'm glad you asked. I missed this in my last post. The firmware will also replace the stock boot.img. only a problem if your running a custom Rom. In which case you don't need to reflash the entire Rom. You can extract the boot.img from the rom zip and flash it with fastboot.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Did you manage to s-off? With s-off you can also flash custom firmware. So you could just delete the boot.img and recovery.img from each of the firmware.zips then you can just flash the firmware without complications. :good:

Will this work with Hboot 1.57, I tried with insertcoin 5.0.2 and ARHD 4.4.2? Can I downgrade Hboot with S-ON by flashing older RUU signed by HTC or 3rd pary authority?

Sorry confused you with a different user. Previous reply deleted.
No rumrunner will not work on hboot 1.57. Only sunshine app works to s-off hboot 1.57. If you mean will the rom work then yes it should but it's based on a much older firmware. Downgrading firmware is not possible with s-on. So you can either upgrade your firmware and use ARHD 92 which is a lollipop rom. Or keep your existing firmware and flash ARHD 84 which is a kitkat rom
Because your s-on upgrading firmware will require you to lock the bootloader. Be advised that unlocking again will wipe your devices internal memory. So backup everything you want to keep to your pc before you start. If you want to upgrade to lollipop there are plenty of RUUs for lollipop there should be one you can use depending on your current OS version. Upgrading via ruu will also require you to relock the bootloader.

Deleted OS with no backup (Solved)

Hello, guys. How you doing?
UPDATE: it's solved, i got back to stock rom after flashing this: https :// fl1.androidfilehost.com/dl/2k6GKx4IJOgIhD09zRzbzw/1441027324/95897840722641610/Reset_rom_6.07.1540.2.zip?
Now I'm going to do a BACKUP haha
I am with a HTC ONE M7 Internation/Unlocked Soft-Bricked, with no OS... Here are some information:
- Using TWRP 2.8.7.0 custom recovery for M7 (latest version)
- Unlocked bootloader
- Rooted (at least I did it before wipping my OS)
- S-ON!
- HBOOT v.1.57
- Already have ADB/Fastboot on my PC
- Modelid: PN0711000
- Cidnum: HTC__332
Here's my tale:
I tried to install RUU M7 Lollipop ROM, from HTC's website. But, at the very beggining of the instalation (4%), the RUU software said it lost my device. I did it while in fastboot mode, because it was the only way RUU recognized my phone. Then I could not install Lollipop ROM by RUU method, so I decided to flash a Lollipop ROM Unlocked Version for One M7.
I knew that for doing it I would need to install some custom recovery on my phone, unlock its bootloader mode and install on my PC ADB and Fastboot. I did all of this; the bootloader unlocked I did from HTC's website guide. So, I put on my phone a ROM in zip extension, boot it on recovery mode. I read that I should wipe data, cache, calvik cache and, maybe, system. And I did it... with NO BACKUP of original ROM --' I know I was stupid...
So I wipe this partitions, entered Install menu and tried to run instalation of the ROM zip file. It didn't work!!! Some error: "E: error executing updater binary in zip..." And I tried to flash different ROMs, all of them showed this error...
Then now I am with a Soft-Bricked HTC ONE M7 which has no OS. Some pics of my status: https: // w w w .dropbox.com/s/ruyen2ikn0u5i0u/Soft-Bricked%20M7.rar?dl=0

There is not much available for 6.15.599.101 version, you'll probably need to use custom roms or convert to another version. There is a 6.15.599.101 ruu available at irfile.com but you will need an acount to download it (paid account) http://www.ir-file.com/portal/index.php?dir=Firmware/HTC/HTC_Android/M7_U/

This rom is for the Developer edition version CID BS_US001 and MID PN0712000, By flashing this on your phone, you're far from being stock, you will not get any ota updates and be stuck on this version.

Oh, thanks :/
So, what is the best path to follow to get Lollipop? Should I pay 25 bucks for Sunshine, change my CID and try to flash correct Lollipop rom? Is there another way to get Lollipop rather that one?
Are there so many new and interesting features on Lollipop or should I stay on KitKat 4.4.3? I don't know so many custom good roms; can you recommend me some?
Sorry for asking so much questions. I know, probably I'm bothering you '-'
PS: Now my system asks for an OTA update to Lollipop, but it's not possible... Probably due to what you said about my flashed rom being Developer edition's one.

Either pay for sunshine so you can change your CID / MID to convert your phone to another version using a lollipop RUU or pay for an account at ir-file.com so you can download the .599 ruu and then take all ota updates.

Many ppl likes lollipop and probably as many ppl doesn't like it. I think its better to try it yourself and see what you prefer. Some ppl likes the new features and other ones are complaining about battery drain and lags.

All custom roms are good, it all depends what features you need. The best you can do is to read some rom threads and choose one that fit what you need, try it a few days and if not liking it, flash another one. If you want good battery life and no lag, I would recommend GPE roms, if you need what HTC Sense have to offer, then choose a Sense based rom like ARHD, Maximus, InsertCoin, NuSense ....

Because your CID and MID doesn't match the rom version you have flashed. Developer edition is for CID BS_US001 and MID PN0712000, yours is HTC__332 and PN0711000, In order to receive ota updates, you must be 100% stock either be flashing the .599 ruu for HTC__332 / PN0711000 or by achieving s-off, changing your CID / MID and flashing another version ruu e.g: changing your cid to BS_US001, your MID to PN0712000 and flashing a dev edition (.1540) RUU.

I was reading about Android Revolution HD, it seems good. I really like Blinkfeed (Highlights) so I guess I wouldn't flash a ROM which doesn't have it. I think ARHD got Blinkfeed, right?
