I just got my new HTC One M6 and now I can't get it rooted. Additionally, I seem to have messed up the internal storage because I get errors when I try to do anything in TWRP and I can't get supersu to install in twrp either. I can't even get anything to show up in any of the folders while in recovery.
Here's info on my phone and what I've done so far:
1) T-mobile, hboot v1.56
2) got unlock token from htcdev and unlocked successfully
3) flashed TWRP 2.6.3.0 recovery using Squabbi's HTC One Toolkit.
4) tried to install supersu using the toolkit and then tried putting supersu.zip on the sdcard manually. Neither worked and resulted in lots of error messages in TWRP.
4) tried to wipe data and everything else but this failed too.
5) tried to make a log file in twrp and this failed
Attached in this e-mail is a screenshot of the error messages i get in twrp when trying to wipe. Any ideas on what I can do to fix the internal storage so I can actually root my htc one?

The HTC One in an M7 .. the toolkit you used flashed a very old recovery
you need to learn to use adb and fastboot and not a toolkit
flash TWRP 2.6.3.3 from here
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
use this SuperSU (flash it in recovery)
http://download.chainfire.eu/382/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.93.zip
Do a hard reset of you phone by holding power + vol down for 15 seconds in a will lit room until it reboots to the bootloader
OK, I'll give this a shot. Thanks!

I unlocked the bootloader on my HTC One and successfully flashed CWM recovery; however, when I try to boot into recovery the HTC splash screen comes up with "Entering Recovery" for a few seconds (as it should), then the screen goes black for a second and it boots into the ROM like normal without going into Recovery.
I've seen that the general fix for this is to clear the dalvik-cache, but I can't do that without root permission, and I can't install the superuser to get root without being able to boot into the Recovery.
I have developer options enabled with USB Debugging, Fastboot is turned OFF.
I have flashed to plain CWM, touch CWM, and TWRP, all with the same results.
fastboot erase cache had no effect

are you flashing recovery with adb-fastboot, what computer os are you using
are you usung the correct recovery image, for the sprint m7wls, (fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-m7wls)
use goo manager to flash the recovery and see
or you can use the all in one tool in the dev section

I am using the "fastboot flash recovery" command on Windows 7 64-bit (I have also tried on 32-bit).
You were right about the recovery file, I was using openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-m7.img, not m7wls. So for anyone who finds this thread later make sure it's the right recovery file for your build and carrier (not just phone model).
Hello. I recently got an HTC One from CSpire. I had no trouble unlocking the bootloader. When I try to go into a custom recovery so that I can root, I get the message "Entering Recovery...". However, this screen only lasts a few seconds then my phone boots up like normal, completely skipping the recovery. I've tried multiple versions of TWRP and CWM. Any ideas? I'm not that experienced with android devices. I haven't been able to root because of the recovery issue I am having. Please help!

what instructions are you using to flash the recovery ?
do you have the all in one kit ?
Reboot on fastboot with Power volume down.
Once you are in fastboot you enter the following command:
fastboot erase chache
After this you should be able to reboot in recovery without any problem
Good luck

Clearing the cache didnt work. I just tried again using TWRP 2.5.0.0. I know its not the latest, but the latest doesn't work either.
Also sometimes when I try to go into recovery, my device freezes on the "Entering Recovery..." screen.

I've tried a couple different all in ones. None of them work. And I can push the recovery to the phone no problem. Its when I actually try to go into Recovery from the boot menu that I have this issue.

Have you tried the following command in fastboot?, fastboot flash recovery (name of your recovery file).img
Make sure you have the right recovery file for your device, example: openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7.img

Yes. Multiple times. I've done everything I can find on the web so far. It's almost like the recovery isn't sticking (Not sure if thats possible.) Maybe I need to try and get S-Off?
SOLVED!! I had to use the Sprint Version of TWRP. It worked the first try!
Hello, I have a HTC One phone, and had cyanogenmod 11. I started having problems like not syncing and stuff so i decided to full swipe my phone and flash the Android Revolution HD 51 rom. Tried several times to install the twrp 2.6.3.3 recovery, and for all my stupidity ended up flashing the rom using clockwork 6.x
Now, my phone isn't turning on, I cant get to the recovery and I really don't know what to do anymore
Thanks for your help in advance.

Download the twrp recovery and rename to recovery and place in mini-sdk Or platform tool folder
Then connect your phone in fastboot mode ( power + vol down --> fastboot )
open platform tool Or mini-sdk command line and Type :-
fastboot flash recovery recovery(name of the recovery).img
fastboot erase cache
This will flash your twrp recovery.
Now go to recovery from bootloader and flash the ARHD 51.

omfg... the explaned that whole sh*t quite difficult^^
You should be able to understand that here(But i assume that you already installed adb and fastboot):
- Enter the bootloader and do the following
Code:
fastboot erase cache
- Now enter the recovery.. if you don't have a custom recovery download this one:
TWRP Openrecovery for HTC One m7ul
- Flash the recovery with this command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "C:\path_to_recovery\recoveryname.img"
- Now enter the recovery...
- Proceed a full wipe in the recovery(including /system but excluding sdcard(where your photos etc. are stored))
- Move your rom.zip to your phone by executing the following command:
Code:
adb push "C:\path_to_rom\rom.zip" /data/media/0/rom.zip
- Now flash the rom with the recovery
- Reboot

You need also to download MINI-sdk, (you can google it) and open a command window there to execute those commands.
It's nothing difficult but i understand that it can be tricky the first time.
When i open what ever .exe in the sdk-mini or platform tools it just seems to blink some cmd lines and close immediately..Tried typing this in the windows cmd and didnt work either..
EDIT: Ok, got it to work, erased the cache, but now when i try to flash the recovery it says "error:cannot load 'recovery': Unknown error
What am i missing?..Now I'm stuck without a phone><
I really don't feel like spending money repairing it for something as easy as this
I have a problem...
I went to update my HTC One M7 to the newest InsertCoin update however I downloaded the wrong rom, downloading the rom for the HTC DNA instead. After an unsuccessful install, the phone would not boot after a wipe or anything, and atm boots straight into the boot loader. I have been unable to side load any file onto the phone and so far S-off attempts have been unsuccessful. Any help would be appreciated.

if you have an m7_u or m7_ul - check your fastboot getvar all - try to reflash custom recovery: get TWRP from:
2.6.3.3: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
or 2.6.3.4: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7ul
(make sure MD5 is correct, that site does not play nice with download managers)
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then try getting to recovery, if it bootloops back to bootloader, then you have a serious problem
I am able to get into recovery as I already have ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.4.6 flashed, by can switch to TWRP if it is better? I'm just not sure of what steps to take as I can't load a stock rom on the internal storage (computer isn't recognising device but fast boot is) and I can't take it back to my provider as the boot loader has a tampered warning...

you can transfer a rom to your device using adb from twrp recovery. ADB sideload or adb push method.
instructions can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2318497
@nkk71 congrat for your new title :good:
edit: If you have an usb otg cable you can also copy your rom to a usb drive and mount it from twrp

I've spent over 6hrs researching videos, guides and I've buggered it right up now.
Used Hasoon2000 All-in-one tool to unlock bootloader, which I eventually done. Installed TWRP through the AIO tool and Perm root. Got the Super SU app, checked root and all WAS fine.
Then decided to flash ViperOne rom, went to TWRP and selected zip file and chose what to install. Install went on for a while and then failed due to 'Error 7'.
I stupidly never made a backup through TWRP before trying to install ViperOne and now I'm stuck between TWRP recovery or the bootloader.
What do I do.... :crying::crying::crying::crying:

If you used those toolkits you most likely have really old versions of recovery and root
try this
from fastboot USB
Flash recovery TWRP 2.6.3.3
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then sideload this Rom to your phone
http://www.androidrevolution.org/downloader/download.php?file=Android_Revolution_HD-One_71.1.zip
TWRP / Advanced / ADB 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
