Are you trying fastboot commands or adb?
Try this, when in android
"adb reboot bootloader"
then when its in bootloader,
"fastboot devices" and see if your serial number comes up

I am having a similar issue, the phone boots and the USB port works fine in recovery and when booted but nothing happens when it is plugged into the PC in fastboot mode. It is not the PC as other phones work fine in fastboot etc. It seems like the fatboot part of the hboot does not recognise USB, there is not even any device appearing in the device manager (unknown or known) when the phone is in fastboot and connected to the PC, it should change on the phone to say "FASTBOOT USB" when connected to the computer, It makes unlocking the boot loader a bit difficult as I cannot execute the fastboot oem command to get the unlock code from htcdev.com
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.

My specs:

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!

Hellow. I have some problem with connection of my One. Atm i wanna s-off my phone.But can't.
After connecting phone to usb2.0 port win8 recognise it well (checked by "adb devices -l"). But when i try to reboot into bootloader i've got "waiting for device" (fastboot reboot bootloader). Ok i'm switch off the phone and boot in bootloader (fastboot mode). Phisical connection is good (fastboot usb). Try to check connection by "adb devices -l" and i got no one device connected. But in same time i can easy flash recovery by "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". Btw when i put phone in fastboot mode my win8 told me that connected device not recognised and can't work good, but when i start android win8 got my phone well. I've check it with two original htc usb cables and one not original.
Any ideas?
Thx!
When the phone is in fastboot mode, you use the fastboot command, adb won't work. When the phone is not in fastboot mode, you use the adb command, fastboot won't work.

Yes, you should be able to use fastboot/adb commands with both s-on and s-off. So do as the above user suggested
Now, if you are getting an error with rumrunner because of adb/drivers, i thinks its because to use rumrunner your phone has to be on the homescreen, because your phone must be able to boot/reboot upon rumrunner's adb commands (and since your problem is you cant even boot the phone, i guess at this point you cant use rumrunner)

Can you reboot into recovery again and enter to fastboot mode?
Can go between fast boot and the Bootloader menu but if I hit reboot, it just comes back to Bootloader. If I pick recovery it just flashes for a second and comes back to Bootloader. I am S-off btw.

if you have a USB stick, just make an Ubuntu Live USB (no need to install, you just make it, then boot the laptop/pc from the USB), check my guide under FAQ #5 (i think) it's very easy and ubuntu doesn't have issues with hboots, drivers, etc...

ok so the guide walks me up to the point of installing fastboot for unbuntu using a couple cmd lines but for my specific situation will I need any files saved in specific locations? I have never used Ubuntu or Linux before so youll have to bear with me.
Ok so im in Ubuntu, I think I have the guide pretty much figured out, but It still doesnt want to detect my device. I installed ADB according to the guide, but "sudo fastboot devices" comes up blank and the phone only says "fastboot" not "fastboot usb"
entering the command to flash CWM gives me the same waiting for device message. I have tried multiple USB cables as well.

the phone has to say FASTBOOT USB, otherwise it's a problem with the port (phone/PC/cable).
ubuntu doesn't have driver issues, but when you connect your phone to the PC, it has to change from FASTBOOT to FASTBOOT USB.

It doesnt change, so then its likely something with the system partition as it relates to the USB port? Because the port was working fine until the failed flash. But what it sounds like is this is a brick?

doesn't sound like a brick at all, as long a hboot (ie bootloader is fine) no brick should be involved.
but i have to call it a night, hopefully someone will be along shortly, and take over... (timezones ) take it ease, DO NOT PANIC, DO NOT RUSH things!!
Cool, all your help is greatly appreciated. So I should hold off on the trip to the phone store?
Any other ideas to get communication to the phone?
Different Computer, USB Port, and USB Cable. Without saying FASTBOOT USB on the phone, can't do anything.
