Hope I can find some help as I ran into what seems to be a pretty serious issue. I haven't been able to find any steps that gets my phone back into booting the actual OS, so posting my specific problem seems to be the only option. A lot of thanks for anyone that can possibly help.
So, followed these instructions to root my phone and get it ready for installing a new ROM, but got stuck at instruction 18.
Which says: (a few before too)
16. OK Now the bootloader is unlocked. Time to install a recovery. In Terminal ./adb reboot bootloader
17. In terminal ./fastboot flash recovery name_of_the_recovery.img (I used recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.1-m7.img)
18. After recovery has flashed POWER DOWN PHONE COMPLETELY Then restart it
Once I did that, I restarted my phone and it loaded up clockwork recovery screen. This seemed fine, but every time I clicked to restart system it keeps on putting me back to this screen.
* I've tried clearing cache and booting, creating a backup and restoring and booting,
* I've got to the bootloader of the OS, but when I go to recovery, it brings me back here.
* I can't connect via the terminal w/ adb or fastboot as it complains it can't connect to device or just waiting for device.
* Neither the Android File Manager nor HTC Sync Manager can connect.
* I've tried only having one application installed for file management hoping that it's just a conflict, but to no avail.
* Can't use an sdcard load since there's no sdcard
* Trying a sideload doesn't work because I can't connect to the device.
I'm afraid I bricked my phone. I hope someone can offer some suggestions.
Again, thank you for your time.

You can't reboot into bootloader with a longpress of Power + Vol- button under a strong light?
I can get there, to bootloader by using the power and volume down, but no matter what option i pick it gets me back to clockworkmod. I've tried connecting then via terminal, but still nothing. Pretty frustrating.
In fastboot with the command:
Code:
fastboot devices
you can't see your phone?
If yes, flash the latest TWRP/CWM, do an erase cache and flash or sideload a rom
Right, nothing is output w/ that. Neither in bootloader or clockworkmod screen.
You've the right driver installed?
And, in device manager you can see your phone without any yellow triangle?
p.s. are you using windows, right?
Forgot to mention that, I'm on a Macbook Pro.
So Fastboot flash different recovery does not work?
When you where in recovery, did you flash any new ROM?

So you have to add a
Code:
./
before the fastboot/adb command.
In fastboot type:
Code:
./fastboot devices
and check if you can see your device

Thanks for the command... sadly it just says waiting for device. The core problem it seems now is that my computer won't recognize the USB connection for this device.
I think I just found out what I did wrong
instead of running this:
./fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.1-m7.img
I ran this:
/fastboot flash boot recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.1-m7.img
based on command history. Crap.

Yeah, I know, only way you can get the whole process working is by adding ./ or if you wanted to put it on your $PATH variable, but that would be pointless.
Well your op says you attempted to do backups and restore, so you obviously seem to have CWM installed.

Yeah, it's installed. Just I think now because it was put on as a boot vs recovery it's treating it as the OS, possibly, so when I try to boot the system,it just boots CWM. The OS is there though, if I do a backup you can see all the files (especially proprietary stuff from HTC) still on the drive. But w/o access to it via terminal I don't know if there's a way to fix the boot problem. I can get to the bootloader,if I only it could mount to my computer from there (or even in CWM). Access to the phones drive seems to be the only way to clean it up.

As I gathered from your description, you are using a MAC.
I think you should use your friends PC to use the command to install the recovery and see if it solves the problem.
Alternatively you can use Heimdall Terminal fir MAC, which is sort of ODIN for MAC and try to reinstall your firmware.

I can use virtual box now... i'll give it a try.
I use Mac as well and I ran into same connectivity problems as you do, but it was not during unlocking, rooting.. I had a Bootloop going with some mods conflicts, anyway, not important. I used my missus win 7 laptop and there it would see it and I could fix my problems there. Mac has had issues with SdK not working.
Alas, do run the Fastboot flash recovery command if you get it talking, as you temporarily can access CWM before flashing it permanently.

I have a similar problem
My specs:
M7_WLS PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT 1.44 UNLOCKED
RADIO 1.00.20.0626
OpenDSP v31.120.274.0617
eMMC-boot
Jul 5 2013, 17:19:22:-1
TWRP v2.6.3 - working correctly
I have no backup and no ROM on my phone
I can access HBOOT just fine via power + vol down
Team Win Recovery also seems to function properly
My phone is not listed under adb devices
and the worst of all, my phone won't connect to my PC!!
Here is the problem,
I got bored with my stock ROM, so I decided to try CyanogenMod 10.1. Having installed a few ROMs in the past, I felt comfortable tampering with the software on my HTC One (Sprint). I first had clockworkmod flashed and I booted to HBOOT and wiped everything I had an option to wipe. I fear this was my mistake, I also did not create a backup prior to my tampering. After wiping my phone with clockwork, I tried moving the Cyanogen zip to my phone. This is when I noticed my phone would not connect to the PC. I tried different PC's and cords. I am using USB 2.0 and the laptop even makes a ding noise when I enter fastboot usb. My phone is not listed in C: drive, device manager, or adb devices.
I now have flashed TWRP and made sure all my drivers are up to date. I installed HTC Sync Manager, which can not find my phone. I tried to send the cyanogen zip to my phone via fastboot flash zip cm-10.1.3-m7spr.zip. This failed to pass signature verification test. I thought being unlocked bypassed the sig check but I guess not. I tried to gain S-OFF using revone. I couldn't send revone to my phone either. I also tried installing the stock ruu. I got my phone to the black HTC screen and ran the ruu.exe and whammo! ERROR [155] UNKNOWN ERROR...
I'm looking for a way to move my rom zip file to my phone so I can install via TWRP. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! Thank you!

I once had a similar problem with my samsung abd tried this ..
1. Remove sd card from your phone.
2. Put the sd card in a card reader and copy your firmware on sd card through yout pc
3. Refit the sd card in your phone
4. Flash firmware through recovery.
I hope this helps.

Hi there,
So I've wiped it completely ending up with no OS installed on it, i have nothing on the SD card (Internal storage in this case).
When i boot it up, it just stays on the HTC logo.
Im using a mac, so when i connect it to, Android File transfer pops up trying to recognise it, but in the end it doesn't.
My question is, how do i get my computer to recognise my phone so i can put a zip onto it and flash it.
I've seen people saying adb, but i have no idea how to use it, or what it is kind of, i know its something to do with terminal?
Any help?!

I have never tried ADB with a mac, but what i would do for my windows is first download and install the fastboot drivers. then, you should make sure that you still have a custom recovery image (CWM, TWRP, etc.) if you dont, then push one via adb (google it, there are billions of articles.) Then, i would install zip from sideload from the recovery. I know that CWM has an option like this. Some recoveries have an option to mount your phone as USB storage, allowing you to drag and drop roms from your computer to your phone's SD card and then you can just flash the rom from your sd card. Make sure you do a full wipe before flashing. (factory reset data, format system)

Hi,
Thanks so much for replying.
I now have a new problem, i was searching up, and apparently i can install the stock rom if i relock the bootloader (which i have now done) and then run the RUU? (Is this correct?)
So i have done all that, however i can't seem to find the right RUU, because when it says do you want to update from image version... to image version... they are always different numbers?
My image version is 2.24.401.1
I think mine is the unlocked International version, i bought it on Amazon.
Can you help me at all?

Download adb sdk and set it up. I don't know how to do it in Mac so just Google it. When your adb is setup. Go in adb folder, then SDK folder, then platform-tools and put any ROM zip there. Do this first I will tell you more when you are through this.

No problem. Once you had set up everything , go to platform tools folder. From there open command prompt and run this command adb push ROM.zip /data/media/0/. You have to run this command in boot loader mode on your phone. It will put ROM on the phone. Mind you it will take some time. Up 10 to 15 mins in case of sense ROM and 5 to 10 min in case of cm or other aosp ROM. After that reboot in recovery and install rom.

Funnily enough i had the same issue a week or so ago. I was going to flash a ROM and went to wipe in TWRP. Mucked up and wiped the "sd card" as well as system and data. I blame the wine.
Anyhow, oopsy.
I had recently bought a USB stick with a micro usb plug built in. I loaded a ROM flash-able zip onto that, plugged it in, and mounted USB OTG from TWRP.
Flashed it from the USB stick and all was well. Having never tried this i was actually surprised it worked.
Just mentioning this as an alternative for people who may not be that comfortable with adb. Does require a custom recovery. I know it can be done under the latest version of TWRP, but not sure about CWM as i haven't used that for ages.

Hi,
Yeah i was thinking about doing that and ordering one from amazon as i don't know anyone else who sells on in shops.
However, even i order today it will come Tuesday, so in the meantime i will see if i can fix it using adb.
Thanks anyway
Have you installed adb SDK. Just Google and install it at C:\ . you will get an adb bundle folder. In that folder you will find SDK and in SDK is platform tools folder. Or if you have USB drive and an OTG cable, you can use @astmacca's method. Its much easier.

Boot your phone into bootloader-fastboot
Connect it to your pc so it shows fastboot-usb
then open cmd in the folder containing adb.exe (press shift+right click>open command prompt window here) and type fastboot getvar all

When your phone is in fastboot, type

Does it list your phone?
If it doesn't, try changing USB ports/cord, and also try uninstalling and then fresh installing new drivers after restarting your pc, then connecting your phone.

I have tried all things that you guys have suggested...i can´t get any of them to work, for now...So hard find all the right links and so on...i´m not great with android...is there any video or story, how to do that ? I suck My english also, i´m from Finland
It's definitely NOT bricked. I'll keep an eye on this thread, you're getting great help but if you don't end up getting it fixed send me a PM, I sometimes forget about a thread I need to check back in on. It's for sure fixable and there's great advice in here.
Edit I somehow missed your last post before posting this. Send me a PM, and I'll help you get it fixed up after work.

When your phone is in fastboot, type
fastboot devices
Does it list your phone?
If it doesn't, try changing USB ports/cord, and also try uninstalling and then fresh installing new drivers after restarting your pc, then connecting your phone.
Now it finds it again
nd what happened to the sideload? Did the rom zip get copied?

ok so fastboot is working, as suggested before post a "fastboot getvar all" (remove IMEI and s/n).
If sideload isn't working you can use "adb push", but first thing is to reflash custom recovery just in case it's corrupted.
so download CWM or TWRP (from the threads in xda), then
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery>.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> enter RECOVERY
then
adb push <name of rom>.zip /sdcard/ (this will take anywhere between 5 to 15minutes and not show progress, eventually it should come back with "success")
then
install zip in recovery, and choose the <name of rom>.zip and install it.
Hello everyone!
I just flashed the Android Revolution ROM (5.1 version) and it wouldn't boot properly- (I was using twrp and had S-Off) afterwards I flashed clockworkmod to see if maybe twrp was the issue...
Now my phone will only boot into fastboot and refuses to reboot or boot into recovery.. I'm totally out of ideas and the toolkits I've used in the past don't seem to be of any use.
If anyone has any clue or tip then I would greatly appreciate it!
Hi.
I'm in the same situation as this poor fella (only fastboot, no CWM recovery) except my situation might be even worse as I'm running Windows 8.1, this stupid OS which prevents to use fastboot. I know there is a solution to make it work on W8.1, but unfortunately there is no USB 3.0 port on my computer so I can't use the Intel driver workaround.
So right now my phone is stuck on the bootloader screen and I really don't know what to do anymore.
I'm freaking out at the fact that I've lost my primary phone...argh. I wish I never quickly went for the 4.4 roms.. been giving me trouble
Well.. I flashed twrp through fastboot using Hasoon's HTC Toolkit and it looks like it worked but.. when trying to boot into recovery it freezes then cycles through rebooting..
Had these issues too, only option was ruu to get my phone back up and running.

1. Download a fresh copy of the latest twrp 2.6.3.3 from here ------> http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
2. Throw that recovery image into your fastboot folder and rename it twrp
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot reboot-bootloader
Sometimes that erase cache command does the trick

I've never done that before- what are the prerequisites and steps you took to get it back up and running?

Forgive my ignorance but I've only been using Toolkits and have no clue on how to run commands through the command prompt..
But I am willing to learn! Where exactly would you recommend me looking into to get this working?
(I have the SDK manager and HTC usb files if that helps?)

No problem bro, I'm always down to help someone learn and fastboot/adb is a MUST if you are a rooter bc it'll get your ass out of a bind quick. I'll need to know what OS your computer is running while I gather the necessary downloads and screenshots so I can help you as much as I can

Yeah I'm slowly realizing that I can't run away from learning this information!
I'm using Windows 7 (32 bit)
Also I ran into this article: http://www.redmondpie.com/how-to-set-up-android-adb-and-fastboot-on-windows-tutorial/
This might help I think?
I'm at work now then going to the gym if I'm still up and you need help I'll post in the thread to see how things are going... Good luck in the mean time tho. Post your hboot and what is you're on fastboot garvar all is needed to help with ruu.

Hey everyone. I've had a look on the forums but can't seem to find information relevant to my situation, so I'm hoping you'll all be able to help.
A few years ago I rooted my HTC Sensation (Xe) (and have since moved on to Sony's, non rooted) and have a friends HTC One that she was given.
When she was given the phone, it had Cm10 (possibly 11) and was not locked to her network. No problem, i thought. I'll just stick a new Sense Rom on it and that'll be fine (as i used to do with my XE).
I did that, went through the trusty Aroma installer where it warned me that Doing so may lose root, but i still proceeded .
Since installing that , the phone now just bootloops, there seems to be no recovery on there to boot from. I've tried dicking about with the ADB settings and Fastboot but can't get the phone to connect to my computer.
I think that once I've got recovery on there i should be able to change the CID and then put an unlocked, stock Rom on there.
If anyone can help, that would be amazing. Sorry if i missed this information posted elsewhere!

Try this to get out of the bootloop. "To perform a hard reset, hold down the power button for 10 seconds - in the process you'll see the softkeys start blinking, then it should reset. As soon as it starts to reset, release power, and hold down the volume-down button - hold it until hboot pops up (white screen, colored text)." Once in the bootloader screen, you should be able to hook up to your computer using the fastboot commands in a command window.
Thanks for replying, unfortunately I can't seem to get the phone and my windows 8 computer to talk.

well if your phone hboot is 1.44 you will not be able to connect it using win 8, you'll need either win 7 or linux.
can you post a screenshot of your bootloader screen
also what rom and version # have you flashed and what recovery and version are you using?

I've tried that, in all honesty it didn't occur to me that Win 8 (8.1) wouldn't work. It didn't work. My Sony Vaio Pro 13 doesn't have a lot of AMD in it (i dont think) and i couldn't get it to work. I'm pretty close to just going "ahhh F-it" and putting Ubuntu on here to try that.
Thanks for your help so far guys.

Btw you can use linux (ubuntu) without installing it (with a live cd). use ubuntu 12.04 32 bit.
The phone did have Clockwork Mod Touch on it and i tried installing KitKat (Android 4.4.2 + HTC Sense 6.0) - Android Revolution 71.1
I love that Linux doesn't need fully installing to run.
So, i have Linux available. I need to use adb and fastboot to put the recovery software back on there(is that correct?), as since i got it all it's been saying (since installing Android Revolution) is 'Entering Recovery' where it flashes with the little clockwork mod icon for half a second and then resets.

flash arhd using TWRP 2.6.3.3 not clockworkmod recovery
flash twrp recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then in twrp menu select ''install'' and chose your rom.zip (arhd)
if the rom was deleted from /sdcard use adb push
i.e:
Code:
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/
