[Q] M7 stuck in boot loop after running RUU.exe

Hello everybody, hope everyone is having a better day than I am. I will try to keep this short but I am more than happy to provide more details as they are needed.
I picked up a replacement HTC One (ATT) after a warranty claim for a bad speaker and I immediately rooted it. After rooting the phone and before flashing a custom rom it started rebooting itself every couple of minutes. I went ahead and flashed a custom rom (many to be honest) and the phone booted up just fine, however, the phone would not recognize the sim card. I tried the sim card in a different phone and it worked fine. Then, with the sim card replaced, all of a sudden the phone worked for about 30 minutes. After that it started rebooting itself at will every couple of minutes. I decided that i must have flashed a bad file or something so i decided to go back to stock with RUU.exe. I locked the bootloader and ran the .exe from my laptop (windows 7) Now my phone i "relocked" and the RUU flashed a recovery that I can not get into. My boot screen now reads this
***relocked***
M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.55.0000

OpenDSP-v31.120.274.0617
OS-3.17.502.3

(date and time)
this is the RUU.exe I loaded
RUU M7 UL JB43 SENSE50 MR Cingular US 3.17.502.3 Radio 4A.19.3263.13 10.38j.1157.04 Release 334235 Signed 2 - HTC1Guru
Now when I start my phone it loads to the ATT screen with the globe, sometimes plays the chim, and then goes to a white screen with the green HTC. after about a minute it reboots and loads to the exact same spot. It will do this until I enter the bootloader and power it down
I don't know what to do anymore as I have read about a thousand threads and I am getting confused on what the next step should be. I would greatly appreciate a point in the right direction.
Although the POS phone I am using with a modified sim card holder is pretty awesome
Thanks in advance

Get ATT to replace to it again?

there is more back story that I did not go into and i don't know if I can get it replaced again.
Now when I turn on the phone it loads to the initial start up screen where it ask to set up my account and set up wifi. but agian after a minute or so it just reboots and loads to about the same spot and then restarts.
I still think this is fixable

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

What software version are you on now? I'm not near a computer but my first thought is that because you are s-on, you can not run an RUU that is older than your current version. So if you are on KitKat now, you can't run a Jelly bean 4.3 ruu.
You would need to be s-off in order to do that.

to tell you the truth I don't know anymore because i have tried to load so many different things, how can I tell for sure?

another question...Now that I have a relocked bootloader can I try to rerun the RUU.exe file? I will check my getvar this evening to find the correct RUU but just don't know if this will work with a locked bootloader and no recovery.

Sure will work as long as RUU is same level as your phone

I would try re-running the RUU. Sometimes they don't do everything correctly. But done right, it should wipe your phone of any custom software and take you back to clean stock.

Finally made it back home I wanted to post my getvar all so please tell me if you see something bad

What about factory reset from bootloader?

Well I tried to RUU.exe again and now the phone will load to the setup. I went through that, but it is not recognizing my sim card. I can sign on to wifi which works and I can navigate the homescreens. after about 2 minutes the phone reboots itself and the whole cycle happens again. i tried to do a software update but with out the sim card being recognized it says Network not available. the signal bar has an "X" and it does not recognize when I try to remove the sim card to reposition it.
should I try a different RUU.exe file? Thanks for all the help, I think we are getting close. One thing I think is strange is when I ran getvar all, it has a strange line I noted it below. Anybody know what this means?

[Q] Lost OS - Soft Brick

Hey guys, Nate here.
Problem: My Sprint HTC One will no longer boot up all the way. It gets stuck on the HTC Powered By Android screen. I still have access to the bootloader and have tried a bunch of things but now I'm at the end.
Long story short, I was attempting to root my phone so I could use the tether feature to save $50 on a wifi receiver for the pc. But that didn't go well. In the process of flashing the ROM the phone wouldn't boot anymore. Started doing some looking around found this thread. I flashed the full firmware ruu(successfully) and attempted to use the Sprint HTC One | 5.03.651.3 RUU to install the stock OS again. However when I run the ARUWizard and go through the steps, it freezes at (1/6 Sending). I don't receive any errors at all, it just freezes. I am pretty tech smart when it comes to computer software, but don't know much about Android, obviously.
At this point I just want to get my phone back to normal since rooting is over my head. But I don't want to take it a repair shop and spend money that I don't have if it's not 100% necessary. So any advice would be happily welcome.
Here is my getvar:

[Q] M7 - WiFi switch stays permanently Off.

Hi all,
Been looking at the suggested similar thread but none is either up to date nor they're particularly relevant to my situation.
* Info on my unit:
Htc one m7_UL,
Android 4.4.3,
Sense 6.0,
Software # 6.13.707.1,
SDK API 6.25,
Kernel 3.4.10-g4b41f8e [email protected] #1 SMP PREEMPT,
Baseband 4T.28.3218.04_10.33E.1718.01L
After having my device back from servicing (motherboard fried), the device functioned properly for about 2 weeks before the WIFI switch stopped turning on anymore.
* Troubleshoot performed:
- On normal device activity, WiFi switch is on Off. Pressing the switch to turn it on will result in it becoming slightly lighter grey (as if to turn on) and stay like that for about 15-20 seconds. Then go back to usual Off grey as if nothing happened.
- If I reboot the device, the WIFI would be 'On' and work for about a minute. It would search networks and/or connect to them as per normal. Then it would self-turn to Off for good. No chance to turn it back on until the next reboot.
- I tried factory resetting the device, the problem seemed solved for a few hours (maybe 1 day) but it started again as above.
I am not sure where the issue is, but based on this, it would seem to me that is more software based than anything.
I thought that could it be related to something ****ed up with the Radio or the kernel ? Is anyone able to confirm?
My phone is currently S-off'ed with Sunshine, Bootloader unlocked, rooted, with TWRP custom recovery. Stock ROM from HTC OTA updates.
getvar should be:

Everything is backupped in case I need to do some crazy data wiping thing, like doing the RUU reformatting etc.
Thanks so much, hope anyone'll be able to advise.

VZW Software Update Failed - Red triangle error - Locked / S-On

Can anyone help me? I have a completely Stock Verizon Wireless HTC One (M7) I was attempting to update OTA and it failed.
Now when I try to turn it on, I get the Triangle with the Exclamation point in it. If i hold down the Volume Down Key, i get to the bootloader, but the factory reset or Recovery options do not work.
I have been reading up and found that I can use a RUU tool if I have the Bootloader unlocked or S-Off. However I have neither.
I have tried to take my device to VZW, but they told me it is out of warranty and to buy a new phone.
Can anyone help me?

I'm in the same boat. I've searched everywhere to no avail.
I was referred to this page for RUU, but they do not have anything recent.
HTC Sync manager / SRA shows "no software available" when connecting to it in fastboot.

cLsA, that page only gives you a download to HTC sync manager, which does not work.

HTC One M7 not booting. Boots Recovery mode but is stuck there

Hi guys. Today I received a bricked HTC One (M7) to see if I could recover it. I don't know about his past (only that it has a broken glass).
I try to press Power for a long time, it boots the HTC White screen that says HTC and Powered by Android but after that, it shutdown. I can boot "recovery" mode and navigate through the menu. However, as soon as I press power to select an option, it gets stuck there, and all keys stop working and I need to press for a long time the power button. If I put it charging, sometimes, it shows the battery symbol and the red led turns on.
The Recovery Menu says:

I'm sorry, there is no thread named "ReadMe".
Few instructions:
First you need the htc_fastboot.exe instead of normal fastboot.exe
Enter RUU mode: "htc_fastboot oem rebootRUU"
And flash the ruu: "htc_fastboot flash zip PATH_TO_RUU.zip" - replace the PATH_TO_RUU.zip with your location to ruu, then do the command again when requested.
Wait to finish, then do "htc_fastboot reboot"

Well, the zip file is corrupted

Hi again. I tried this again, however, I can't access the fastboot mode. On That menu described above, when I press Power to select fastboot, it gets stuck there and the only thing I can do is to press Power button again for some seconds to force shutdown.

You absolutely need to get in the fastboot menu and it must show "FASTBOOT USB" in red once there for your phone to communicate with the computer. If your phone freeze in bootloader, there is not much you can do, either a corrupted bootloader or hardware damage.

Ok, thanks. So, I can't get it to work, right?

Hi,
Sorry to interrupt this thread, I also have an HTC One, M7 unlocked. I tried to root the phone and ended up with the phone stuck at boot screen. Trying to follow the instruction to use htc_fastboot and the image you shared to flash my phone
Is that image locks to Vodafone UK as the image name has this ?

Thanks heaps !
Managed to flash it using the RUU. Now my phone boots OK. However seems the phone cannot read the SIM. I did have this issue before but now it looks more like a SIM tray/reader HW issue

Your baseband is detected correctly? If so, it's probably a hw issue.

Yes, I can view my SW version via going to settings - about once the phone boots up
