[Q] runny kitkat stuck on splashscreen - HTC Sensation XL

Hello gents pls help out a noob.
I think i may have rushed into flashing a rom on my xl before i knew enough to try it.
Unlocked at htcdev ok and flashed clockwork recovery 6.0.2.7.
Downloaded runny kitkat and flashed. all seemed to be ok on install, device rebooted and got cyanogen splashscreen ......for several hours.
pulled battery as i didnt want a flat battery.
booted into recovery and removed kitkat and tried kingcobra v9 again seemed to install ok untill reboot then just a black screen.
Any advice on how to get a working phone again would be helpful.
is it an s-off problem, how can i get s-off with no working rom installed.
Is it a root problem, again how to do with no working rom.

[Q] phone resets.. no signal.. applications crash.... please help

i was on bad boyz kitkat rom... when i decided to install the venom 5.8.. i downloaded the files from here.. http://goo.gl/etO13i and installed the zip using cwm... This is when the problem started...
The phone when started directly entered into bootloader menu screen... and no recovery was accessible then... also i was not able to get my phone running now...

[Q] Nothing present after custom ROM install

I have spent a day and a half trying to fix all of my issues before I finally turned here but I am at my wits end.
This all started with my attempt to flash Viper to my HTC one. I installed clockwork touch loaded Viper to the drive and went to install. During the install process something happened and my install failed. When I rebooted the phone it returned to the fasboot screen and there was no recovery present. I had heard that sometimes TWRP works better for installing some ROMs so I decided to switch courses and try that. Before installing I went and formatted cache, data, ect. When I tried to install Viper this time it appeared to be a successful install. However, I was once again I was returned to the fastboot screen and no recovery was present. I tried this a few more times with either clockwork or TWRP using sideload with no luck. I also trried using fastboot to flash a sprint stock recovery boot and image. When the phone rebooted it showed the white HTC Screen but nothing happened for a half hour so I restarted the phone again only to be dropped into the fastboot. I also tried locking and unlocking the boot loader and tried a Sprint HTC one RUU with no success.
So at this moment this is where I stand:
I am on the fastboot screen with no recovery.
HBOOT 1.56.0000
S-ON
Any help you can provide would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks for your time.

... now that its up and running, i recommend you get s-off 1st. it eases many things. then flash twrp 2.7.0.4 recovery and try to flash viper :victory: ...
I was in this situation myself. If you can adb twrp recovery onto your phone. Dont try to flash viper with cwm it will mess stuff up. After you have a recovery loaded flash the viper rom. If it boots up be sure to check about phone section in the settings and see if there is a baseband version present. If not just flash the latest firmware and you should be good to go. This was what i had to do.
Same here, about a month ago. They really need to just remove that option to flash CWM. I managed to get a recovery installed, but now it seems like half the ROMs I try to flash won't boot. I don't even know what Rom I am using, because it has disappeared from XDA. It's a 4.4.2 Sense 5.5 ROM, and it is odexed and came with Xposed Installer. It's the only ROM that seems to work anymore, so I have to wonder if my firmware got messed up. I'm S-On, with no way to S-off for the foreseeable future until I can fix my laptop. Since my laptop is unavailable, I'm a bit hesitant to mess with the phone much more, since I can't fix it again without the computer.

I've read a number of these threads, and many have Viper in common. Viper by itself is an amazing ROM. Maybe too amazing... Incredible amount of customization. I have to remind myself occasionally that as much as I flash ROMs and lurk around here that I am not a dev.
I would do my best to achieve S-OFF if you have any plans for custom ROMs. It's always useful. I would also suggest trying one of the Sense 6 ROMs. They are all amazing.

S-OFF is necessary for some ROMs to work, although I'm not sure about Viper. Use firewater.

I am very sorry I know this is a slow response. So I tried to first root my phone so I could use firewater but I ran into issues. First, I tried to place supersu on the internal hard drive via windows but when I rebooted into recovery I was not able to find any of the folders I had access to. So i tried using side load but got errors that I could not mount cache and could not mount system. Do you have any suggestions on how to proceed?

Stuck on Boot Screen (HTC Quietly Brilliant)

Hi,
I got my brother's old HTC One M7 and tried to flash the ROM.
I have experience with Samsung Devices so I figured it worked the same way.
I install cyanogenmod using their installer. It worked, but dreadfully slow (slower than the stock rom).
So I downloaded Android Revolution 53.0, put in the /Downloads folder and went into recover and tried to install from zip.
It appeared as if the installation went through, and now the phone is stuck on the HTC quietly brilliant screen.
I can go into HBOOT, FASTBOOT, RECOVERY.. But I can't seem to get past it.
Just went into recovery and see "No OS installed! Are you sure you wish to reboot?"
Please help!
Thanks.
First question....what version recovery are you using
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
To revive this thread.
So, I was able to figure out the original problem or at least get around it.
For whatever reason Android Revolution HD wouldn't install despite trying to flash the ROM using TWRP or CWM recovery.
I was able to get CyanogenMod and LiquidSmooth to work without issues.
I later used a Nandroid backup of a Bell Mobility (CID BM____001) and return it to "stock" JB.
I'm trying to get KIT KAT on it, I get the OTA update notification, but after it initiates the installation, device reboots into my custom recovery.
So, I tried to flash the stock BM recovery, and BM Stock KitKat install starts, but then I get a teal and pink screen back to back and get stuck on the HTC / Beats screen.
Any help is appreciated.
OK, your first problem sounds like you didnt flash the Boot.img first through fastboot, before trying to install the ARHD Rom, extract it from the zip file you downloaded and flash it through fastboot, then flash the rom, I believe Sense Roms (ARHD) will not work on non sense rom boots like CyanogenMod.
Post 3 problem is you need to install the stock recovery first.
Thanks for the quick response.
I've gotten further than where I was about an hour ago.
I realized when I flashed the stock recovery for BM_001, it was an older version (mismatched my ROM).
I flashed the the stock recovery version of my stock ROM, and I was able to get KIT KAT.
Now, it's doing a 2nd OTA update to get SENSE 6.
Will post update as soon as it's done. Hopefully it's successful.

Need help Reinstalling stock recovery HTC One m7

Hey everyone,
I need some help, a while ago I attempted to install a custom ROM for my HTC One m7. Anyway I never actually installed the custom rom so I still have my carriers version or rom still installed (Optus australia) which is the good news! The bad news is I still have TWRP recovery installed instead of the stock recovery. Now my problem is I want to install the latest update from my carrier but it keeps going into TWRP when the phone restarts to install the update. Is there away to remove TWRP and install stock recovery that comes with the phone? If so do I have to install RUU file? The problem is I cant find the RUU file for optus australia anywhere, except the nandroid file, but i think ill have problems with the touch screen if use that? So Is there a way to install stock recovery without using ruu, rom or nandroid file?
Thanks!
This might help

Hey thanks for the link. That was help full. But iv got another problem I installed the stock recovery for htc one and everything seemed ok except when i went to install the latest update from my carrier (optus AU) the phone restarted it went in to update mode and got about half way and then i got error it was a red triangle with the explanation mark.
I then hit the power button and volume up to get into its loader screen (not really sure what its called) and I restored the phone to factory settings and then rebooted the phone. I then download the update again and restarted the phone to get the red triangle and explanation mark again.
I did notice when I got into the bootloader that my device is still TAMPERED ,***UNLOCKED** and the s-on is active. Could any of these be the reason why its not installing the latest update? sorry im pretty bad at this!
