Need help please!!!
I did a really bad mistake last week when I wanted to downgrade my HTC Incredible S to original ROM and now it loop on the HTC logo every 3 sec. Previously I installed iNcReDiBlESeNsEv4.0
ICS ROM and it worked like a charm. I just wanted to downgrade to orginal ROM so I execute the following RRU: RUU_Vivo_BellMobility_WWE_1.37.666.3_Radio_Radio_20.23.30.0802U_38.02.01.17_M_release_174461_signed.exe and this is where my nightmare begin. I’m now unable to access Recovery and stock on the HBOOT menu. I’m able to connect Fastboot and flash radio, flash recovery and boot but without success.
How could I make my recovery worked back and install ROM again? I really miss my Smartphone right now so please help a poor guy like me.
Here is the phone info:

Thx for your answer,
How I do that? I'm not able to access recovery, it loop on the HTC logo when I select it from the HBOOT menu. I have a backup from clockwork that I did before doing my mistake but I don't know how to restore it.
Could I restore it from Fastboot?
Re install recovery change recovery to 4EXT, you can find thread on forum INC S. if you can access bootloader it will work flash recovery.img via CMD.

I tried to flash recovery using the following command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img
and the output was:
sending 'recovery' (3726 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.154s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.756s]
finished. total time: 1.914s
But when I tried to access recovery from HBOOT menu, I always get the HTC logo loop. Do you have any idea why this happenning? I had 4Ext before, is-it could be the problem?
Thanks for your help

OK, trying to absorb all the different things you have posted in different threads, so forgive me if ask something you already posted on a different thread.
You stated that you were running a custom ICS ROM prior to trying to flash a RUU, right?
Based on the getvar all info you posted, I would suggest you use this Bell Mobility RUU instead of the one you selected.
http://www.filefactory.com/file/c0a...5AU_3805.04.03.27_M_release_199657_signed.exe
I would personally run the RUU without the phone connected and then extract the ROM.zip out of the %TEMP% directory and copy it to your sd card and rename it PG32IMG.zip.
Then boot into bootloder and let it flash it.
If that works, at least your phone should boot and then you could try flash either CWM or 4EXT recovery.
Thanks for your reply,
I already solved my problem last week end. After flashing recovery more then ten times and flashing radio with froyo and gingerbread without success during more then 5 hours, I fall on a post on xda saying that this is the latest ICS radio. I decided to give them a try and flash it using fastboot and guess what? My phone was able to boot and my recovery is now working.
I decided to stay with a custom Rom and try Nik Aura Rebirth Rom and I more then love it.
I'm so happy now and I will not retry to install RUU again .
Thanks everybody for your help and if someone have a similar problem don't hesitate to reply

It shouldn't scare you off RUUs!
Sounds like your original problem was a bad/incorrect Radio Flash with the RUU.
What was your radio prior to the RUU?
Regardless, glad you solved it. Nothing more frightening than a potential brick!!

You sideload or push it to the phone with adb
In Twrp go advanced sideload
Then from pc command line
adb sideload name of Rom.zip
Or
adb push Rom.zip /sdcard/

Why don't you find correct Ruu of your phone go to stock after relocking the bootloader ( make sure to flash latest firmware via adb)
Boot once and unlock your bootloader again ( it will format your sdcard ) now copy any rom you want to your sdcard. Flash recovery and flash rom enjoy.
I did this thing when I bricked my HO.

What version of TWRP was you on.. It has to be 2.6.3.3 and if it was CWM that will not work with ARHD. .. also try fastboot erase cache after installing.. and make sure that the version of ARHD is for your phone.. read the installation guide

Start over flashing recovery first
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
then push / Sideload ARHD 5.3
http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.com/p/android-revolution-hd-mirror-site-var.html
TWRP / Advanced / Sideload - swipe to sideload
From PC adb / fastboot folder
you use
adb sideload name-of-rom.zip
make sure the rom is in the same folder as adb / fastboot

I dont know what i have done, mostly magic and randomness, but it now works!
I used CWM recovery and flashed the ROM off a usb stick using an OTG cable i found lying around. Seemed to do the trick!

I couldn't find a RUU for your phone, but here is a nandroid backup use Method 2. If you need the stock firmware you can get it here to run it your bootloader must be LOCK/RELOCK.

If I am following you correctly these are the steps you took:
First you flashed the firmware. Which firmware did you flash?
Then you unlocked the bootloader and installed a custom recovery. Which recovery?
Then you restored the nandroid from the post. Did you select root after the nandroid installed?
Then you cleared cache? Why?

I think the firmware you are using is not a compete package, generally firmware removed from OTA don't have all of the elements just those needed to run the OTA. Get a .401 stock firmware from this Placeholder of HTC One Firmwares.

Hello, i'm sorry i don't know what to say because i have almost the same problem, my htc one m7_UL won't start...is shutsdown sometimes at boot time, when i take photos with it...and sometimes what ever else, but in recovery mode it can still houers and houers. yesterday i brought it to s-off then i installed an RUU...but still the same problem !!! is it a material issue ??? thank you.
Within TWRP you should wipe data (not custom) to recreate data, system, and etc. folders. This will also wipe whats on you sdcard so, you'll have to adb push new files to your sdcard to flash a rom.

Try to get back into TWRP, in TWRP flash this stock ROM Method 1. I am guessing that when you say you restore that you are talking about the nandroid backup you got from the site.
I am having a weird issue that I have not been able to fix it. The only custom recovery that works with my device is twrp 2.6.3.3.
I flashed the newer versions of twrp and the latest version of cwm for m7 - it flashes successfully (no error during flashing), but when trying to enter recovery, it gets stuck at "entering recovery" screen (restart recovery-->shows up the "entering recovery" screen-->for one secong the screen goes black --> goes back to htc splash with "entering recovery" message)
also, the factory recovery WORKS.
I tried:
- fastboot erase cache - reflash recovery
- factory reset - fastboot erase cache - flashed recovery
- I even downgraded the software version: wiped all the phone, including internal storage; flashed twrp 2.6.3.3 - adb loaded 4.19.401.11 stock - flashed factory recovery - updated the official OTAs back to 6.09.401.5
nothing helped.

Not sure why but I'd stick with 2.6.3.3. It is nice and stable. Newer isn't always better
did you try out the latest Unofficial TWRP 2.7.1.2? im using it and havent looked back, works execelent (at least for me)

yes, I tried that - no luck :/
thanks though
it has to do something with not wiping the cache after flashing the recovery ... I think
after every failed twrp2.7xx or latest cwm flash , I need to flash the 2.6.3.3 version that works flawlessly.
what i notice right away, is that whatever i try to do in there, i m getting E:Unable to mount '/cache'
wipe--advanced--select cache--wipe works though and after that everything is ok in 2.6.3.3
i tried fastboot erase cache, did`t make any difference
i´m pretty much out of ideas...
You will always get unable to mount cache in recovery after you do a fastboot erase cache. Have you been using that command after you flash the recovery? I just noticed you've been doing that before you flash it. You should flash the recovery. Then erase cache

still no success. I even ruu-ed it til the ver. 1.19.xx.xx and gradually used the official ota to update to 6.09.401.5. same issue, it says that flashed successfully, but doesn't enter recovery ; staying stucj at the htc splash page with ^entering recovery ^ text. I'm out of ideas, using sense roms anyway. it's just that it drives me kookoo not knowing why this is happening ??

Have you tried 2.8.0.1?

Also: You may have to take everything back to factory. Turn s on if off. Relock bootloader. Run RUU. Enter factory recovery and perform factory reset. Unlock bootloader, Flash TWRP, and root.
Hi,
I am running CM 11 on my M7 (rooted, usb debugging on,S-On). Question is how to restore original ROM on the same phone. I tried Guru_Reset_M7_5.12.502.2_clsA but phone goes in bootloop.
I have the nandroid backup HTCOne-32GB-ATT-5.12.502.2-TWRP-stock-unrooted.zip but not sure if I can use the same.
Getvar details are below:

I need to run tests for an app and specifications say that I need to be on original ROM (I am guessing its 4.4.2?)

Guru reset posted by @clsA should work. What recovery are you using to flash it? Did you check MD5? The nandroid should also do the job but this will not flash stock recovery back like the reset rom. If you want to restore the nandroid backup instead of using the reset rom, you could extract the recovery from cIsA's reset rom and flash it after restoring the backup. Stock recovery for your version is also available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2545227

The only reason you would get a bootloop is by using an old recovery ...update to TWRP 2.6.3.3 and your be fine.
Someone in the thread also suggested a factory reset after restoring the nandroid.

You pretty well covered it ... I'm betting on an old version of CWM or TWRP was the problem.

@clsA and @alray.. I have been using TWRP 2.8.0.2 from here
http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7/openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.2-m7.img
I am facing issues with adb in older versions of TWRP. (tried on two systems)
I couldn't find the md5 at the download location. Also during installation I tried with and without stock recovery, with and without wipe, with and without radio but no luck. I am facing bootloop issues even after nandroid restore (from my original post). In both cases of guru reset and nandroid restore I do perform factory reset.
As a matter of fact I have never been able to install any ROM other than CM11 after the phone crashed last week. (ClsaA might actually remember me by now since I am troubling him/her since last week ��

Then you might want to downgrade to 2.6.3.3... worth a try...
MD5 of the reset rom: 3b4013265e9134bc6916cf3c5fd14406
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then try the reset rom again.

@alray.. I am going to try that but last time I tried I wasn't able to use adb. On upgrading to current version I was able to use adb so I guess it may not be drivers issue since at least one version of twrp worked.
I downloaded from here and it has the md5 you mentioned

I do remember, But I'm a little distracted, i got an M8 last night
got the sim card for it today (damn nano sim) and have been doing s-off and all the updates tonight.
Luckly most everything i have learned with the M7 transfers over to the M8 (just a bunch of new files to download )

LOL.. I got my M8 last Friday. Trying to stay away from S-Off until M7 issues are solved. Once M7 is off the hook then M8 is next. Please post the ROM asap so that I can start playing. I am in software testing so I can't wait for long

well you only need adb to push the rom to your phone once! If you flash twrp 2.6.3.3, the rom will still be on your /sdcard so you'll only need to install it from recovery, no adb required.

@alray and @clsA.. well none of the above worked. I also tried Arhd 81 but still getting bootloop. I also tried flashing ElementalX kernel sheer out of frustration but got bootloop again. Looks like the only thing that's working stable is CM nightly builds. I also tried S-Off while CM was running with Rumrunner and firewwater but as usual no luck. I REALLY need to get this device back to original rom ( I don't care even if I need to go back all the way to 4.3,4.2 if it's easier to upgrade from there. Please please advise.

So you have
wiped everything + format data using your first recovery
then you have pushed arhd 81 to your phone
flashed twrp 2.6.3.3
erased fastboot cache
rebooted bootloader
rebooted in recovery mode (2.6.3.3)
installed the rom
and it still bootlooping?
You also have checked MD5 sum of twrp 2.6.3.3 and ARHD 81 before flashing?
@alray.. I just now tried again with exact same steps in sequence flashing arhd 81 installation failed (when it finished it said set metadata recursive and that some permissions failed. Then it keeped going in a bootloop). I tried flashing CM11 nightly build of 10/19 with gapps and it worked like a charm. I have no idea why only CM is able to get installed and rest others are failing.
PS: I don't NEED to get ahrd working on the phone. My ultimate goal is to get 4.4 running on M7. Do you think downgrading hboot can help since there are lots of posts that talk about downgrading it.
And for now I am downloading Google play edition of arhd and going to give it a try. (Pretty soon I am going to announce a prize for whoever gets my phone working )

Probably because you are using a higher version than 2.6.3.3 CM11 is known to work only with 2.7.0.8+

You need s-off for that rom! Read the OP!

@alray.. so you suggest I stick to twrp 2.6.3.3 and install guru reset again? I guess best way is to copy guru reset while CM11 is running. Then flash 2.6.3.3 and install guru reset (of course after cache clear etc.) ?

yes its mandatory to use 2.6.3.3 for ARHD !
So yes you can transfer your rom to your phone storage (/sdcard) while on CM11 if its easier for you
then flash twrp 2.6.3.3 (not 2.6.3.0 nor 2.7.+ nor 2.8+, only 2.6.3.3!!)
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then reboot in twrp recovery and confirm your version is now 2.6.3.3
select "install" then your ARHD zip and swipe to flash!
I also assume that you already have checked MD5 on all your downloads (TWRP image and ARHD zip?) to confirm that they are not corrupted?

I see like 4 or 5 simlink errors
Pretty meaningless.
The guru reset installs and updates are still untested ( no updates from AT&T)
I don't remember everything you have tried. But do the factory reset again from the stock recovery. Flash the 5.x.502 firmware again see what happens
@clsA If I use a non-working SIM card uring flashing or install then will it be a problem. I got a new SIM card with my new M8 and the one in M7 is deactivated. ( I guess it won't make much difference)_.
