Hello,
(my english is not very well, sorry for that)
Because the vibration engine was to loud, i wanted to reset my HTC One (delete root and lock it again) to send it to HTC.
I did something wrong and now my HTC One is in a Boot-Loop.
When i hold the power button and the volume down button i can get into "Menu" with Fastbood. And i can turn it on.
But my PC can't find it anymore. I tried it on 3 different Pc's and one Mac.
The Recovery doesn't work (i come into the boot-loop).
I'm working since 20 working hours to solve this problem, but i can't fix it...
Could you please, please help me?
Thank you very much!
Best wishes

reflash twrp 2.6.3.3 via fastboot should let you get back into recovery, then do a full wipe and sideload your rom and install it

Hello xnknown,
but my PC can't find my HTC One in Fastmood.
When I try adb devices it can't be found.
When I try dab devices in boot loop there comes just for a few seconds until my HTC One restarts this message:

I installed the adb SDK and HTC Sync (the drivers are included there, right?) Would my HTC be found in Boot-Loop when I didn't installed the drivers?

yes the htc drivers are included in htc sync however you need to uninstall htc sync itself afterwards

I should uninstall HTC Sync directly after installation?

Suddenly my CWM started again :good:
So i played Viper One 2.6 on my One. But Fastboot doesn't work at all.
I'll try to fix my driver problem.... or is there an other way to get back on stock and lock my One?
Can you flash TWRP and then boot into TWRP ?
Also, fastboot only works in fastboot moder in bootloader. Not in recovery and NOT in OS.
ADB works only in recovery and when you are in OS. NOT in fastboot boot mode.

well if you want a relatively stock experience i would suggest going with ARHD 51, its basically the same as stock but a little speedier without the bloat

Hey SaHiLzZ,
can I flash TWRP without Fastboot?
If I understand your second sentence right, yes I was in fastboot mode. I obviously got driver problems, i'll try to fix them now.

no I have to go to Stock because of warrenty.
My vibration engine is much louder than normal. And my second Mic doesn't work.
I don't know the warranty of your countries, but in Germany it has to be stock when I'll bring it back to my electronics retailer
At the moment i just install all possible in SDK and I hope that it will work.
Thank you for your help

Yes you were in fastboot if it says Fastboot USB on your phone. You can flash it once you are in the screen.
fastboot flash recovery (name of recovery)
I will suggest TWRP 2.6.3.3
Then type fastboot erase cache
I was such an Idiot.
I tried to find my Phone with adb devices in adb. The correct command was fastboot devices.
Two days of work because of that little problem :crying: :crying::crying::crying::crying:
Now I'm back on Viper One 2.6 and I'm looking for a Tutorial to bring my One back to Stocke an lock it again.
Thank you!!!
Hey,
i brought my One back on Stock.
But when I update to 4.2.2. the progress always hang up at i think 30%.
I startet it 3 times new, but its always the same failure. I'll keep the One over night on the charger and I hope, that in the morning the One is on 4.2.2 and I can update on 4.4.2.
Did I do something wrong?
And my other problem:
How can I delete the CWM Backup? I don't have root anymore. My SDCard is just 25GB
Thank You !

I think it is better to try run stock ROM, to be sure that your phone is alive.
If you more or less advanced user you can try to install custom ROM

After a few seconds, the recovery should have been flashed to your phone.
Hey guys! I'm kinda stumped here. :crying:
I wanted to restore my phone back to the stock developer edition RUU (Brightstar US) but it threw an error 155. So I tried the Google Play Edition RUU but I guess I should of downloaded a newer version because mine was on 4.3. As usual it asked to flash the file again but it didn't work. (waiting to device)..
The GPE bootloader was already flashed with the OS: coloured red. Fastboot commands wouldn't work so I boot up into Android and I thought of flashing the ENG HBOOT via ADB. Which worked. Alas fastboot commands still won't work and I can't get my device to boot into anything else except into the bootloader.
If you need more information just ask. Any help is greatly appreciated! :fingers-crossed:

I have Windows 8 and USB 3.0. But I did try using the USB 2.0 Ports. I have another laptop with Windows 7 without the HTC Drivers installed and it seems to work.
Hi xda!
I recently got a HTC One from a friend, as my old phone was worn out. It turned out he had rooted it, tampered with it, the whole nine yards. I was not told he had rooted it, so I accepted a prompt asking me to update the phone to what I believe was 4.4.2, KitKat. I now realize that should not have been done. When the phone restarted it went to the HTC startup logo, into a kind of blue screen (not the BSOD), the Google logo flashed on the screen for 0.5 seconds, and then it got stuck on this weird blue/turqoise screen. Nothing happened.
I called my friend, he told me he rooted it etc., and that I should try a factory reset, and if that didn't work, complete reset (including the system folder wipe). That obviously didn't work, but I didn't know any better as I have never touched a rooted phone in my life, and I'm thus a complete noob when it comes to terminology, what steps to take and so on.
Now I have a phone with no OS, stuck at the HTC logo when I start it normally, and all I can do is boot up into bootloader. I can also access TWRP. I have installed HTC Sync on my laptop, but the phone is not detected properly (meaning, the "device connected" sound is played, and I can find "Android device" in device manager, but the HTC Sync can't find the phone) when connected through a USB. It is not the USB that came with the phone. I also installed Squabbi's HTC One toolkit, which basically is the one-click interface of pushing revone etc. to the phone. Problem is, "error, device not detected".
I've browsed around for a good six hours without any luck, other than that I've started to understand how this is all connected.
Phone is
*TAMPERED*
*UNLOCKED*

S-ON
HBOOT 1.44.0000
RADIO-4A.14.3250.13
OpenDSP-v26.120.274.0202

I pray to the mighty tech gods of xda to help me out. I looked for similar threads, couldn't find any that were simple and similar enough for me to understand. I must admit I'm very keen to learn this, so if someone know of any place where basic terminology is explained, I'd really appreciate that. Other than that, a step by step instruction on how to proceed from this cluster**** would also be highly appreciated (what I need installed on my laptop, where I can find ROM's, what flashing means etc.).
Thank you in advance!

well a lot of the work seems to already be done
your unlocked / rooted which means you should have a custom recovery installed.
boot the phone by holding the power + volume down
this will bring up the bootloader. use the volume key to choose recovery aand hit the power button. when you boot into recovery come back and report the name and version of recovery. I.E. Teamwin recovery 2.5.0.0 or clockworkmod 6.0.3.1 ...I'll be here the next couple hrs

Version of TWRP is 2.5.0.0. Currently trying to re-install an OS. Need one that the current version of TWRP can flash to the phone, as flashing a new version of TWRP does not work. I have no preferences when it comes to OS's. A stock OS (is OS and ROM the same thing?) would be fine.
Also, found out that doing stuff on a Windows 7 laptop was easier than on my own Windows 8. The phone is at least detected on the Windows 7, which means I will be able to flash stuff to it through cmd, something I wasn't able to do from the Windows 8.

Well your going to need adb / fastboot on your PC
use mine here >> https://www.dropbox.com/s/0wzwt8843zx27nh/Fastboot.zip
and install the HTC Drivers here >> http://www.mediafire.com/download/j55vk6qbbr6250c/HTCDriver_4.8.0.002.exe
unzip that to c:\ so you have c:\fastboot in windows explorer
now inside the folder you shift + right click / command prompt here
now you have a command prompt window type
fastboot getvar all
and post the result here / minus your serial number and IMEI
then i can find you the correct recovery and rom for your phone

I'm having some problems here... I'm trying to help a friend flash Android 5.0 GPE on his HTC One M7. We are having some problems here.
The device is unlocked, S-ON. But we managed to wipe the whole device, so now there is no OS on it.
I guess I have to have S-OFF in order to flash a new rom.
How do we do this?
I've been trying to find a solution to our problem, but I can't seem to find it!

You don't need to s-off and you can't without a functioning Rom anyway
You need to push a Rom to the phone using adb in recovery. Put your Rom in your fastboot folder on your pc and rename it something easy to type like "rom.zip"
Now with the phone on the twrp home screen and connected with usb in the command window type
Code:
adb push rom.zip /sdcard
The command window will appear unresponsive until the push completes (several minutes) when it's done install the Rom with twrp recovery.
If you found my posts helpful, no need to say thanks. There's a button for that

Thanks again! I was able to push the file, but I'm having another problem. "Unable to mount ' /cache '"
EDIT: Managed to work something out Thank you very much for your help

Once again your welcome, by the way it's normal to see unable to mount cache after flashing a new recovery. Especially if you fastboot erase cache :good:

Ok, I'm obviously new here, so I'm hoping someone might be kind enough to help. I have a T-Mobile HTC One M7 that seems to be stuck in a boot loop and shows a pixelated/distorted line of pixels right under the "htc" logo at boot. The bootloader is unlocked and I have TWRP recovery 2.8.4 installed - I can flash any recovery and send ROMs via adb no problem, but when the phone goes to reboot to complete the ROM set up is when the problem occurs. What's strange is I was running Android Revolution HD 91.1 just fine before this happened - it first happened after I tried to install AdAway. As it is now, I can boot into bootloader or recovery and can navigate just fine, but if I try to simply start up the phone as normal it goes into the bootloop and shows the distorted line of pixels at the htc boot screen. I've tried wiping everything, tried TWRP recovery 2.8.5, tried a couple different ROMs, and the results are the same. Really hoping someone might be able to help. Some information from the bootloader that might help:
S-ON
HBOOT-1.57.0000
OS-6.10.531.10
Also I'm using a Mac (but also have an HP Stream 7 Windows 8.1 tablet if that might help?) Please help!!

Thanks for the response - So I just flash the RUU from TWRP? Or how do I flash it? Sorry, not very knowledgeable about all this.

Ok, well I ran the RUU program from a Windows machine and it just fails. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated - I'm wondering what the line of distorted pixels as shown in the picture might mean?

Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and just throw this phone in the garbage where it belongs and go back to the iPhone because I like things that actually, you know, function. Thanks for the amazing support XDA!

Tried it one last time before tossing the phone for good - failed again, then tried again and it worked! (Again I was using an HP Stream 7 tablet with a USB hub for everything, could have been part of the problem) Thank you so much for your help - gotta admit, this custom ROM stuff might not be for me. Thanks again.
