[Q] Htc One BRICKED.

After only four day of having this phone i managed to brick it. I would really like to know if its fixable or if i have a really nice paper weight. Im stuck on a boot loop, I was half way through flashing a rom when it suddenly shut off. Now it will not boot up. I can load into the bootlader but when i try to go into recovery it just sends me to fastboot. When i restart the phone i can see the old recovery (TWRP)for just an instant but then the screen goes completely black. If i plug in to my pc, nothing happens my computer detects it but it says y device is damaged nd it cant identify it. PLEASE HELP Am i out of luck?
Ive looked around but i couldnt seem to find anyone with the same problem as me (Sprint Variant)

Good news it's not bricked i would put this question on the rom thread someonethere sshould be able to help

There's a Sprint One forum as well, so hopefully you found a ROM on there!

I really hope so because on a college budget i cant afford another phone D:

Seen this in a couple of other places. Seems certain recoveries are possibly becoming currupted during flashing a new ROM.
What you need to do it get back into fastbboot, and....
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase cache
the re-flash your recovery, boot into recovery, full wipe and reflash your ROM.

Can you flash recovery in fastboot ?
the safest thing to do is relock and use a matching RUU to get back to stock

Your phone isn't bricked. There are two tools in this forum that can help you. One is made by hasoon2000(I think that's his user name), and the other is jwtool(I think). Use them to help to flash a recovery if you don't know how to use fastboot.

Edit: Just got done typing the stuff below and saw you can't connect to your device in fastboot? What do you mean by re-installed driver?
Don’t worry, as long as you can still get into hboot your phone is not completely bricked!
The fastboot commands I referred to need to be carried out on your laptop/pc when you phone is connected in fastboot.
Can I assume that as you have already unlocked bootloader and flashed a custom recovery you are already familiar with this and have your computer set up for fastboot commands?
(Apologies if you already know some of this, best not to skip parts out though!)
I’d start with downloading a fresh version of your chosen recovery, and place it in your fastboot directory ready. I’d also do the same with your ROM.
Like you have already done, boot into fastboot. Connect your phone to your pc, and the red text should change to ‘Fastboot USB’.
Then open up command prompt and get to your fastboot directory. (On Windows 7 you just find that folder in Explorer, hold shift and right-click, then choose ‘Open command window here’.)
To check your pc is talking to your phone, type ‘fastboot devices’. You should get a device serial number back if all is well.
Then type ‘fastboot erase cache’ and hit enter.
Then type ‘fastboot erase recovery’ and hit enter.
Then type ‘fastboot flash recovery [name of recovery].img’ and hit enter.
Then type ‘fastboot reboot recovery’ and hit enter.
Hope fully you should successfully boot into recovery now. Once in recovery, mount USB storage and copy over your fresh ROM. Choose to do a full wipe including cache and dalvik, then reflash your ROM.
Reboot.
Let me know how this goes.

I used the hasoon2000 to flash TWRP earlier, but my problems is that my pc wont recognize my phone. When i plug it in it and try to re-flash it it cant find it. When i check my devices it shows up as an android device but it says the drivers are damaged. if i could get it to read it i think i should be eable to reflash somethint.
I APPRICIATE ALL THIS HELP. i really am trying to be as specific as possible :fingers-crossed:

Hey so just a thought and experience I have had with all my HTC phones is when you see that quick glimpse of the TWRP recovery screen then it disappears to an empty black screen......you are sometimes still in a form of recovery but during your Rom flash something (i don't know for sure) changed and it doesn't show the screen only black. So with that long explanation out of the way....have you tried once the screen goes black the
"adb devices "
Mine whenever in this situation would return the output of serial number and recovery so then you can push or sideload the Rom and boot into the system at which point your fastboot drivers will finally be recogniZed.....
Hope this helps a little

I'd say the next step is to re-install your drivers in the SDK. Open up your Android SDK and reinstall them. In Windows Device Manager, find your connected device (probably now with an exclamation mark on it) and right click on it and select 'Update Driver'.
(Assuming you are using Windows 7 here?)

when you are in fastboot, connect your phone using the usb cable, and when you see "fastboot" written in red turned into "fastboot usb" or something like this, do the commands below using cmd window of course :
1) fastboot erase recovery
2) fastboot erase cache
3) fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img
4) fastboot erase cache
Let us know when you fix it
Good Luck

(Win8 but the procces is identical.) All my drivers are up to date. Still no love.

On the dev forum is a thread that includes all the latest drivers (including an app to remove older drivers.)
Find that thread, download the drivers and bmp and driver removal tool. Remove drivers with tool, install the new drivers, reboot, connect phone and see if 'adb devices' finds anything.
Also make sure you're using the latest adb.

This actually sounds really similar to my situation.. Would you care to be a little more specific on the procedure? noob here.

Does NRT give you an error when it tries to reboot into bootloader? Another reason to stay away from toolkits, but that is another debate for another time. Have you tried manually running the ADB commands to boot into fastboot? Do you have access to a computer with Android SDK installed?

Not sure what you want to do in bootloader. Recovery makes more sense to me. Flash a non-force encrypt kernel, format userdata and you're away.
From a command prompt / termina (whilst booting and connected with USB cable)...
Code:
adb reboot recovery
or
Code:
adb reboot bootloader

Yes, tried manually commands before use toolkit, no luck "device not found", drivers are ok, device visible in Device Manager as MTP, before this "unsuccessful" flash works like a charm. And then is no way out, when device is on it show encryption message and still no luck with ADB. Maybe some script that override ADB and took me into recovery/bootloader??

Nope.. If adb doesn't work and volume buttons are broken, you're stuck. Get the buttons repaired.

Adb only works if the device is booted up or in sideload mode in recovery, fastboot works in fastboot/bootloader mode. Is/was the device recognised as a adb device when you typed `adb devices`in cmd?

Adb should work from part way through the boot process and any mode. in custom recovery.

No, it's not appear in "adb devices" on any process of boot, but Windows recognise in Device Manages as "MTP USB Device" even when phone off and connected via USB

Troubles with my HTC One Mini 2

Hey,
My phone is stuck in the fastboot mode, without any OS, nothing works... no Recovery ,...
S-ON, no-debugging usb, Bootloader locked and can't unlock him... I already tried with htc-dev, everything works but nothing appair on my screen to confirm the unlocking.
I'm really stuck, searched lot of things on google, ....
I used fastboot, and ADB, the first one recognize my device, but the last one not. I can't boot on RUU mode neither.
Any ideas?

The very first thing I recommend you to do, is to download the right recovery and install it via command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.zip
Let me know if you run into any further troubles.

Hi,
Frist in boot loader check your OS version it should be something like 2.19.401.2 or lower than this.
NB: ALWAYS TRY WITH MORE THAN 75% BATTERY, AND THAT FOR ANY CODE TO WORK PROPERLY, MAKE SURE TO SELECT FASTBOOT BY POWER KEY IN BOOTLOADER
Anyway, if you can enter fastboot, then you have some chance of recovering your device and because you have S-Off it is going to be a bit difficult.
First download this stock boot file : https://mega.nz/#!lEAVwRSL!wrP2hi6GEYLeJaPf2ssZo9wCtSi7E4yfyUHgh3Q3XSs
Then place this file in the ADB folder, then run command :
To flash boot file command is:
Code:
- Fastboot Devices (this command is important to know if the device is connected and accepting and responding commands)
- fastboot flash boot boot_signed.mg (assuming this is the name you saved the file with)
- fastboot reboot bootloader
Also download Stock Recovery: https://mega.nz/#!gVJE1Bxa!6SwXStAD8p-XlnQiPkRcdNo_ITFD1ykn-tN6wIBVi1I
Place this in ADB folder and run command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery stockrec.img // (assuming that is the name you have saved the file with), only after flashing this you will know if the device has any OS, if OS exists it will boot up.
fastboot erase cache
Attempt and let us know how it went...Good Luck

First, you need your bootloader to be unlocked. It's pretty easy if you have that done already.
You'll need ADB and Fastboot. It can be tricky to get the right drivers. The driver used when your phone is connected in normal mode is not the same when connected in fastboot mode, in my experience anyway. You'll want the 15sec ADB driver and you'll need to update the driver when it is in fastboot mode.
Next, get the correct twrp img and put it in the ADB folder(you'll need a different one based on flashing a pie rom or a q rom). You may want to rename it so it's easier to type in fastboot.
To enter fastboot mode, hold volume up and plug in the usb cable. The LED should light up blue.
Open a command prompt and navigate to wherever you've installed ADB(mine is on C:\ so it's really easy).
Type "fastboot devices" to double check if the driver is installed and your phone is connected in fastboot mode.
------It should show something like: BH9090808E fastboot
Then type "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" - or whatever you've named the file. It will take less than a few seconds.
Then type "fastboot reboot" and let your phone reboot.
Done

Thanks a lot for the reply!
I've been experiencing the exact issues you described. I'm having issues unlocking the Bootloader. "Fastboot.exe devices" does not show anything, the phone is with a blue led on and a balck screen and when I look in Device Manager there's an "Other" Android device with an "!".
Could you please share the drivers you mentioned? Because I really went through
everything and none was accepted. Also the 15 Seconds ADB Drivers did not help.
Thanks!

My apologies. It's been so long since I've started from scratch, I must've gotten the drivers mixed up. The 15sec ADB is for the phone connected in normal mode.
I'm pretty sure this one is the fastboot one:

If not, I'm sorry because that's all I have.

I nailed it eventually!

Question Can't get into fastboot to unlock bootloader

Phone info
OPPO A74 5G
Model number - CPH2197
Build number - CPH2197_11_A.12
Android 11
Developer Mode enabled
OEM Unlock enabled
USB Debugging enabled
Below are screenshots of all of the above
[Screenshots](https://imgur.com/a/qw0fUAw)
Phone is recognised by ADB but not Fastboot and as such I cannot unlock the Bootloader. Is there something I've done wrong or something else I can try?
When entering "Fastboot devices" in CMD nothing comes up.
When entering command "ADB reboot Bootloader" in CMD the phone restarts instead of loading into Bootloader.
I have tried turning phone off and the pushing power button + vol up - this just keeps restarting phone.
Any help would be much appreciated as I'd really like to root this phone all extra info in images on Imgur. Link above.

Did you find a way? I tried everything but I couldn't get into fastboot

No way to enter fastboot mode for oppo phones. Now I use Oppo A74 4G version. Cannot enter fastboot mode. It's locked by Oppo. And they don't give bootloader code for unlock BL. Only way is to change phone

I've been trying run fastboot too. 4 hours later I find this thread. That explains it
Last Oppo phone I buy I guess.
Did you manage to find a workaround for this by chance?

Has anyone tried rebooting from recovery to then enter fastboor or?
Im gonna look into myself soon...
Ive seen this issue before on a different phone but cant remember how they bypassed it
Perhaps yall can try to find a post where they did so.. maybe it'll work on this phone too.

I was able too get to fastboot mode. The phone labels it "recoveryd mode", however, fastboot commands work.
1st. Connect phone and confirm ADB is connected by using "ADB devices" command.
2nd. Enter "adb reboot fastboot bootloader"
Phone will reboot into "recoveryd mode". It looks exactly like the normal recovery mode except the title displayed after you select the language and fastboot commands will work.
However, I still have not found out how to unlock the bootloader, so it does me no good.

try doing adb reboot fastboot or adb reboot bootloader

fastboot oem unlock
FAILED (remote: 'Unable to open fastboot HAL')
fastboot: error: Command failed
guys ,, fails
