[Q] Trying to flash drunk- failed. Now what?

Ok guys, so I was trying to flash the software on my Sprint HTC One with a custom one, while drunk. Needless to say it didn't work. I suspect that chrome f*cked up downloading the rom, because it was only 800mb, and should have been about 1gb. Now, the phone isn't working. When I try to turn it on it shows the htc logo and then boots up in fastboot. Fastboot still receives cmd commands, but I still havent found a way to flash an RUU on it. Tryed with twrp as a recovery- cant mount to computer. Tryed sending the file to phone through cmd- some error about not working radio came through. I'm cutting corners explayning all the methods I tryed to make it work, but there were a lot of them and I dont remember all. I have flashed the boot and the recovery back to the stock ones, bootloader IS unlocked. Phone vertion (as shown in the bootloader screen):
***TAMPERED***
***UNLOCKED***

HBOOT- 1.44.0000
OpenDSP-v31.120.274.0617
eMMC- boot
Jul 5 2013,17:19:22:-1
My question is how do I return it to stock condition (or unlocked to all networks if possible)? Please, I've been trying to fix it on my own for over a week now, and am getting desperate. If possible please give links to step-by-step tutorials and/or files I'll need. Thank you in advance.
PS.: Also, for some reason my computer does fails to install the HTC MTP device driver. Could it be from that, and if it is- will using a different computer solve the problem (tryed a million times to fix that as well- no luck)?

It sounds like you have the same problem that a lot of people are getting into around here, myself included. You tried to flash a non-cdma compatible rom onto your phone.
There are numerous postings about how to fix this, however, it depends on the condition of your phone which step you take.
If you have recovery installed and you have access to recovery you will take different steps than if you only have access to fastboot.
You need to have a recovery installed and you need to relock your phone to fastboot ruu. Once that is done you basically start from scratch and unlick your phone again and then you can reinstall the recovery and then flash the correct cdma compatible roms.

The recovery I can install in a matter of seconds, same with relocking. I have the lastest vertions on both TWRP and Clockwork. Which one do I install and how do I proceed after? Thank you

do you have adb access? or only fastboot access?

adb- Im not sure. How do I check? Fastboot- I think so. It accepts my cmd commands for flashing recovery and rom (although when I tryed to flash rom it failed).

In your command window in the same directory you run fastboot from, you should be able to run adb.
The easiest way to check is to type: adb devices
this should return a value if you are booted into recovery.
it will give you nothing if you aren't in recovery.
if you cannot get into recovery then you need to make sure your phone is unlocked and then fastboot a recovery onto your phone.

I currently have the stock recovery flashed on it. Is that one going to work or should I flash TWRP/ Clockwork?

as long as you can boot into recovery, it should work. i personally favor twrp, but any recovery should work.
try out some adb commands and see.
adb sevices
adb shell
if you get anywhere with those while booted into recovery you should be ok.

did those adb errors or no devices found occur while your phone was showing the twrp start screen?
if yes, then we need to reboot into the bootloader-- to fastboot.
if no then try adb shell again while showing the twrp start screen.

It seems like you need to fastboot flash recovery onto your phone again.
Here are the steps as I think they should work to get you back up and running.
**Make sure your phone is unlocked. (it should display ***UNLOCKED*** at the top of the bootloader screen)
if you ARE unlocked do the following(+++see below if you are NOT unlocked+++)
1. from bootloader select fastboot - connect phone to computer. fastboot should change to fastboot usb when you have a good connection.
on your computer:
2. open a command window and navigate to the folder where adb and fastboot are located
3. type in "fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxx.zip" where xxxxxxxx.zip is the name of recovery zip file without quotes. Make sure you download a good copy appropriate for your phone. I would use this one: http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7wls/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.1.0-m7wls.img
4. type fastboot reboot
on your phone:
5. once it is rebooted and in bootloader select recovery and boot into recovery.
on your computer:
6. once your phone shows recovery main screen then typeat the command prompt: adb shell
7. no matter what the prompt looks like type: echo "1.29.651.10" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 bs=1 seek=160
8. no matter if it errors or not type: adb reboot bootloader
9. type: fastboot oem lock
10. type: fastboot oem rebootRUU
11. type fastboot flash zip xxxxxxxxxxxxx.zip where xxxxxxxxxxxxx.zip is the name of the ruu.zip file. i would use this one: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=22926241640219526
12 reboot your phone once that is successful!! If you get the "flush image again immideately" error message then repeat step 11. then reboot your phone.
you should now be running a stock sprint phone.
you can now unlock your phone again and reinstall a recovery.
to unlock your phone the second time:
13. boot your phone into bootloader then go to fastboot - make sure the phone is connected to the computer
14. on your computer type in: fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
15. on your phone select unlock with volume rocker and press power once unlock is selected
16. on computer type: fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxxx.zip where xxxxxxxxxx.zip is the same recovery zip file we used above in step 3
17. reboot your phone and you are now unlocked and you have a custom recovery installed and you can download a CDMA compatible rom to your phone and install it with the recovery like normal. or you can continue to run stock.
MAKE SURE YOU ONLY DOWNLOAD CDMA COMPATIBLE ROMS FROM THE SPRINT HTC ONE FORUMS.
enjoii!!
+++if you are NOT unlocked+++
try the following:
step 13
step 14
step 15
step 16
step 4
step 5
step 6-17
make sure you complete all the way through 17 after you do step 6. good luck and let me know what your results are.

Nope, adb still doesn't work. Could it be something wrong with the drivers my computer installs? Because when I'm in recovery my computer detects the device in "Other Devices" as "M7WLS", and I don't have a driver for that and neither does microsoft update. Any suggestions?

Did you install HTC Sync or did you install the naked drivers from here?
Otherwise, where in the process did you get stopped?
EDIT: You can always PM me your teamviewer info and I can work on it.

Not sure what thread you are following.. but steps don't sound correct.
Depending on the hboot you are on the fastboot boot recovery.img.. doesn't work.
to flash recovery you should have used fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
what happens if you hold down volume button and power for 10-20secs will it reboot to bootloader? If so from bootloader hit the power button to get to fastboot USB then select reboot option.
If nothing is working other option let phone go flat, then recharge and try again.
Is your device s-off?

Problems flashing TWRP on Dev Edition Moto X

I have a Dev Edition Moto X. I have recently unlocked the Bootloader. I have tried flashing TWRP recovery. Here are the commands I have used:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img​
It says it is successful, but when I when I try to go into recovery it loads into Stock recovery.
My guess is the write lock is still enabled, but I have not been able to find a way to disable the write lock when on 5.1
Any help would be awesome!

"fastboot reboot recovery" should be your last step

After I flash TWRP, I unplug the USB cable, and power it off. Then I boot back into bootloader mode and try to boot into Recovery and the phone powers off. If I boot back up into Android and run 'adb reboot recovery' it boots into stock recovery.
Thoughts?

adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then reboot into recovery.

You're doing it wrong is my thought. Use the fastboot (not adb) reboot recovery command immediately after flashing twrp. No one said anything about powering off and rebooting first.

Thanks, I was missing 'fastboot reboot-bootloader' then it worked! I know it must be something stupid simple I wasn't doing!
Thanks again!

Stock Recovery is reflashed when booting directly.
reboot-bootloader allows TWRP to patch the system not to do so.

Cannot get into recovery mode [bootloop]

Hey I cannot get into recovery mode, I don't really know why. This morning everything was ok: I rebooted my phone into recovery mode as usually, with no problems. THEN I rebooted my phone from the custom recovery, and then my phone went to bootloop: The bootloader screen went to black, then to my lockscreen and then to the bootloader screen, then to my lockscreen... etc. (bootloop)
I rebooted into recovery again and tried to do a normal wipe, because usually that's everything I need. But nothing happened: bootloop again.
So, I went to recovery once more to perform a full wipe and erase the data. Then I tried to flash CM13 and the Gapps, but nothing happend. Now, I cannot get into recovery, I'm stuck in the TWRP screen.
Help?
Sorry my bad english
My phone isn't rooted. I just unlock the bootloader

I had the same problem
It's easy just flash a newer version of Twrp using ADB fastboot from PC = problem solved

Thanks! Can you guide me step by step?

Thanks bro, but I just tried that, even changing the recovery for CWM, but nothing happened. I'm still stuck. The screen blinks with the recovery logo.
I have no system, so... Maybe I'm totally bricked. I don't really know if I can flash some ROM with the fastboot
