A friend of mine has a T-Mobile HTC One and he bricked it, he asked me for help, knowing I'm very good with tech and android. But the thing is that I know everything but from Samsung, I always try to read a lot and learn from new devices to fix them or even try something because I'm always asked for help from my family, sure you guys know about that, but sadly I'm in finals and I'm barely sleeping and I've read a little but not enough but need I to help him so that's why I ask you guys for help urgently. Here are the things I know:
The phone is trapped in a bootloop after the Cyanogenmod logo and restarts itself after a minute
It is S-ON but unlocked
It is the M7_UL T-Mobile model
It is on HBOOT 1.56
The Radio is on 4A.24.32.63.09
The OS 4.19.531.10
It can still enter recovery and is recognized by my PC
From what I've read that has been a little bit, I can restore it completely with a RUU (kind of like a .tar in ODIN for Samsung), but it has to be Relocked and in other sites it says that it has to be S-OFF, needless to say that I don't know what tools to use and then I've seen that that Hboot 1.65 is not supported and well right now I have to create my SQL project, sorry to ask you guys as I hate when other do it just to not read but I swear this is not the case.
Help to fix this will be very appreciated

First thing, try this
Force reboot: press and hold POWER + VOLDOWN (under a bright light, not kidding!!), after about 5 seconds or so buttons should start blinking, and after 30 seconds or so, the phone will reboot, let go of POWER, but keep holding VOLDOWN to get back to bootloader.
Then reboot.
(you may need to try 2 or 3 times to get it right)
What recovery do you have?
CWM has problems with 4.4.2.
The rom bootloops
Install twrp 2.6.3.3
Make sure it's for your phone.
If that doesn't work, do you know how to post a fastboot getvar all.

Yeah I've tried that. The thing that I forgot to tell is that when I go into Recovery mode it shows all partitions in 0mb including Internal Storage and says it doesn't have any OS installed although the Cyanogenmod Logo appears at startup
Find stock recovery for Tmobile. Flash it. Factory reset from bootloader menu and reflahs custom recovery. You should be ok to proceed

I recently bought this Nexus off eBay and it worked fine.
Owner said it had problems with the SD card, but it seemed to be working, for they said it wouldnt read, when it does.
Anyway, it had cyanogen mod 6.1.1 on it, and I hate the setup...so i changed roms. That was a success, but when i flashed a sense rom thru clockwork(most updated) it said:
E:Error in /sdcard/N1Sensation_v0.4.zip
(Status 0)
Installation aborted.
Now, when i flash any roms, whether it says it installed correctly, it doesnt change anything. Now it's stuck at the 4 color x with the unlock icon. Any advice is good advice!
In my hboot, it says:
*** UNLOCKED ***
NEXUSONE PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.35.0017
MICROP-0b15
TOUCH PANAL-SYNT0103
RADIO-5.00.00.04

HBOOT
Etc. Etc. Etc.
Thanks for any help!
Edit: I fixed the issue with why it failed, was my fault, didnt partition the card...but i was flashing a stock rom and it said complete and when i rebooted it stayed at the X and then powered off. Since then has never turned on. I don't know what to do. Nothing will turn it back on. I have a universal charger that charges the battery and it said the battery is full. I need help!
Ok lets see here try this plug in the charger then pull the battery place it back in wait a few seconds and repeat until you see the splash screen (the static X). This could get the phone to at least boot.
But just to check did you flash a radio in all that stuff??

Try flashing CM7. Also...before you do...you may want to search for a format.zip from a member named temasek. It'll wipe your phone...clean. Real clean. Then flash CM7. try that.
also....those sense roms sometimes take at least 5 minutes to boot. Sometimes it'll stay on the X screen for 5 minutes or it'll stay on the bootanimation screen for 5 minutes. FYI.

I can't flash anything. Phone wont react to anything anymore. Hoping one of my family members can fix it. But if I get it on I will try that.
I am pretty sure i waited long enough, but who knows. I didn't partition my card, which may have been the problem. And also it was S-On....which i thought was odd when it had a custom firmware.
Unlock bootloader. Flash recovery. Boot into recovery. Wipe everything. Flash rom.
Why do you guys keep suggesting software stuff when it's probably a hardware problem he can't get the phone to boot up so he can't do any of that.
Although there is one thing I want you to try before your family take a crack at it to take it apart and what not, it's a long shot but it's your last chance if it's software. Hold down trackball and press power keep holding trackball for another 5-10 seconds (better to long then to short) then connect it to the computer via USB you could see a popup notification saying that it's looking for driver software if you do then it's software and we need to reflash everything and might need to unlock the bootloader. Now if you don't see a popup notification I would still go check in the device manager and check for an unidentified device probably in other (it should be extracted so that you can see it).
If this doesn't work then sorry but I think it's a brick
Because in order to find out if its truly a hardware problem you need to try every software fix first.
Op mentioned nothing of trying fastboot as well. Software fix is free hw is not. That is why we suggest software fixes.

Let me remind you guys, THE PHONE WONT TURN ON AT ALL REGARDLESS OF WHAT I DO. I can post a YouTube video to show everything. It'd be very random for it to be hardware because it just turned off and will not turn back on. If there is any software like an RUU out there, that would help, if not, ill have to buy a bottom piece and warranty it out. But I'd feel bad because that isn't the right thing to do.
I don't expect you guys to fix it and I and very thankful of your help! But the phone won't turn on at all. So telling me to flash roms doesn't work. Imagine it as flashing a rom with the battery out of your phone. I am wondering if there's an adb way or something to get it to turn on and restore to stock?
With all that said, any help is amazing help and I am very grateful that this isn't a post I have to bump! Thank you so much, when I go on the PC, ill thank the helpful posts

Then it is a brick if it won't turn on at all. The entire getting stuck at the x thing confused me to think it was powering on.
You have me confused sir, I'm not quite sure what good it is your looking for a RUU for. If the phone truly won't turn on/go past the X screen and you have it on a charger with no LED notification, then the phone is bricked. When you said you flashed a Sensation rom, I truly hope you just meant a Sense rom. If you can still get to the bootloader screen then you are not bricked and should retry everything from scratch.

Hi guys, I have the non-lte One running on 2.24.707.3. Today, I restored my stock nandroid (4.2.2) and then tried the rumrunner s-off (rumrunner_m7_2.24.401.1). It worked, and I was successfully s-off, superCID on hboot 1.54. I then flashed a modified hboot(descenpet_HBOOT_1.54_2.24_MOD) to remove the red warning. All went well. Later, while I was recieving a call, the phone got hung up, so I did a reset (holding the power + vol down buttons). The phone got switched off, but never booted back up.. I tried holding the power + vol down buttons but even the buttons aren't flashing.. Connecting it to my pc makes no connection sounds, and again holding the combo makes no difference. The charging light also doesn't light up. Please tell me what I should do, and whether it is a hard brick or soft brick. Thanks in advance.
Just press and hold the power button on it's own and see if anything happens

why did you use modified hboot now you are in serious trouble. As you are supercid download any ruu and try flashing and if your pc can connect via fastboot you can fix your phone. To check you must type in adb fastboot devices. if results are positive tell me i can help you then

I used a modded hboot to remove the red warning, have a look at this page (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2316726)
To do an RUU, I need to reboot in fastboot, but I can't even get the phone to charge.. Of course adb doesn't detect it..
Another point to note is that I rebooted several times after flashing the modded hboot, and it worked all those times, so this is just random... :'(
Why do people care about the red writing? Unless you're sending it to HTC for repair it makes no difference! It just leads to complications such as this

Well, 2 things
1: The process worked, ok? It's a perfect process to remove the red text, and the modded hboot also worked, I rebooted several times after flashing it.
2: The matter of the fact is that I am actually sending it in for camera replacement.. I guess I'll just tel them to replace the mobo along with it..
So, lets stop fighting like losers and find a way to get out of this situation! It'll help many people in the future

If it's not booting up , and you're stuck in that QDLOAD thing, it's usually the mainboard that's fried and HTC replaced the mainboard in my Sensation under the warranty when it happened to me. I was S-OFF at the time as well, and it came back 100% stock and working

I think most of the time, that's not something fixable unless by a service center. You may wanna check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2331454
For one guy the phone "magically" just started again, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
Sorry mate.
Ok, thanks for the info.. Maybe I'll make a strong case. My phone was originally replaced with a new one within a week because of battery problems, and scratch marks that I didn't make.. Then the second one had its mobo replaced for that same battery problem, and now I was going to send this in for replacement because my lower speaker is louder than the upper, and my camera has the dreaded pink tint and my phone has a big gap on its side where the service center guys hadn't closed the phone properly..and now this.. Oh boy, am I gonna make a strong case!!

Okay, although I've read a lot and I've learnt quite some bit, I want to know that if it wasn't the phone that unexpectedly died, was it my mistake somewhere? So I'll start with what I did, step by step, please have a look and tell me if I did anything wrong
1. Originally on ViperOne, tampered and unlocked on hboot 1.54
2. Restored stock nandroid 4.2.2 (2.24.707.3)(India) unrooted
3. Downloaded rumrunner (the version that I previously mentioned)
4. Started the exe
5. Phone reboots 2-3 times, process completes at pouring(3)
6. Reboot to verify s-off
7. Restore ViperOne nandroid
8. Run Revone to reset tampered flag
9. Flash modified hboot to remove warning.. Succeeds, reboot to verify warning gone
10. Reboot like 5-6 times to admire at the bootloader
11. I got a call and my phone hung
12. Reset the phone by holding power+vol down
Aaand the phone never booted again..

... well this is what I think. But I am newbie.
I bought this one in China due to double sim card and micro SD memory slot.
but as in Chinese (Weibo form China Unicom, please correct me if not..), I wanted to root it and install Google Play things because I can't read Chinese even in HTC Market, and customize the blink feed etc.
I read and read and found a way to make it happen, with Moonrise.
After unlocking from HTC dev, I realized it was not S-off.
So no way to install whatever even through TRWP or CWM.
So back to step 1 for starting up again, regarding S-OFF.
Launching distiller.exe (from Mooshine), all passed more or less ok with some reboots and suddenly a "press ENTER" with a warning not to drink.
Drink?...
Er... Well, OK, this maybe some local humour... (I am French (...nobody's perfect) and I may have not catch this.
But now i am stuck on 1st screen showing the Weibo Logo (Orange logo on white screen), not moving and no chance to load anything,
Try to reboot:
POWER + VOL.DOWN just makes blink the 2 logos down on screen ('<' and 'home' or 'house' logo... even holding for many seconds
(and seconds are long in France...).
I just can see phone starts to be hot when touching it, and me too, feeling hotly... stupid!!!..
This was working not so bad finally and I think I just screwed it...
Really ?
It there someone here that feels that I am just missing a small tiny little step to move forward?
Maybe should i have had checked this could work with Chinese phone...
Anyway, any help for beginner is very welcome then.
It's the wrong thread. This thread is for the Sprint version. I'm not even sure if your phone is a genuine or a fake. You should try some other forum. The only advice I can give you is to try keeping pressed the power button with some bright light in front of the light sensor. This should reboot the phone. If you can get in bootloadet your phone is not bricked

I am not sure what you device is. You should tell me what your device model. It's written in bootloader before the hboot version. Or you could just take a picture of it and post it here. I don't know why moonshine didn't work for you, but it could be that it wasn't for your phone model or your hboot. Can you go to recovery(just use the volume buttons to move and select it with power button)?

You can try if your device boots to system. Select reboot than system in recovery.
If it gets stuck on the boot logo again: I found a custom ROM for your device http://llabtoofer.com/2013/07/23/htc-one-dual-sim-maximushd/

I can have it all in French for all menus (international languages can be selected).
A 1000 of thanks for your great help as phone is working perfectly and! :victory:
A question btw:
Phone tells me there is an update from MaximusHD 1.0.0 to 1.0.1.
So I downloaded it but when mobile reboots it goes into TRWP...
So I am not so sure of the procedure to follow regarding the update...
Maybe should require not to update? or either select other menu than fastboot?
Or let it in the state of the art as working perfectly (homoeostasis attitude...:cyclops
I am glad I helped. I saw on the thread:
After installation you will get 1.0.1 OTA update. It will be downloaded in download folder at internal storage. You have to install it manually!
So selsect install from sd card and than go to downloaded folder. Flash the file
Please post in ROM thread or in the One general if you have further questions, cause this thread is only for Sprint

Hi all,
Wondering if anyone could help me. On the Samsung ATIV Odyssey I have, when it boots, it will show, Windows Phone, Samsung screen then just shows the spinning gears..this will go on forever. I tried to reset and "tried" to hard reset it but could never get the "!" To show up.
Is there any way possible to recover this phone or am I stuck having to send it out to Samsung?
I have not been able to get anywhere with this phone and can't find recovery software like Nokia has for their phones for Samsung models....
Thanks in advance!!
Can anyone help with this issue ?
I ended up calling Samsung, the phone is out of warranty (of course) but, they say they will do a free one time flash to attempt to recover the phone. The provided free shipping and will flash it and return the phone to me at no charge.
Nice, didn't know they offered that....

Thanks, does the Odyssey (SCH-I930) can be flashed with the roms for the ATIV S ? Interesting, If I can get this phone up and running again, I might try to go the ROOT route if I can. That is if it can be recovered.
2 computers would not even detect this phone because of it being a reboot loop. So even if I had a rom or something else for it, the computer would not even see it.
Not my primary phone, so no big rush if I have to wait for a week...

NO IT CAN'T OF COURSE BE FLASHED WITH OTHER PHONES' ROMS BUT IF YOU KEEP READING ALL THE PAGES OF THE THREADS I'VE LINKED YOU YOU'LL LEARN THAT WOLF MADE OTHER CUSTOM CSCs(the smallest,editable part of a WP rom) SPECIFIC FOR YOUR DEVICE AND HOW TO FLASH 'EM
(I wrote with caps lock in order to let you get the importance of the point )
It's normal that every pc doesn't see your phone:something in its os is missing.I would advice you to flash another csc -description in this the customwolf rom thread I've already link to you -(see the specific combination of your model in order to know if your phone turns on in download modus and you can try to flash again it)
EDIT----
Sorry man,I just Thought now to it: You could simplify your life just trying first a Hard reset from buttons combination (I think this is the correct one,but you can search for yourself for the specific combination of buttons of your phone).
Alternate Method
Step 1
Turn off the phone and wait 15 seconds.
Step 2
Press the "Power" button. Press and hold the Volume Down button until an exclamation mark appears on the screen.
Step 3
Press the Volume Up button and then press the Volume Down button. Press the Power button and then press the Volume Down button again. The screen goes black and then the reset process completes.

NO IT CAN'T OF COURSE BE FLASHED WITH OTHER PHONES' ROMS BUT IF YOU KEEP READING ALL THE PAGES OF THE THREADS I'VE LINKED YOU YOU'LL LEARN THAT WOLF MADE OTHER CUSTOM CSCs(the smallest,editable part of a WP rom) SPECIFIC FOR YOUR DEVICE AND HOW TO FLASH 'EM
(I wrote with caps lock in order to let you get the importance of the point )
It's normal that every pc doesn't see your phone:something in its os is missing.I would advice you to flash another csc -description in this the customwolf rom thread I've already link to you -(see the specific combination of your model in order to know if your phone turns on in download modus and you can try to flash again it)
EDIT----
Sorry man,I just Thought now to it: You could simplify your life just trying first a Hard reset from buttons combination (I think this is the correct one,but you can search for yourself for the specific combination of buttons of your phone).
Alternate Method
Step 1
Turn off the phone and wait 15 seconds.
Step 2
Press the "Power" button. Press and hold the Volume Down button until an exclamation mark appears on the screen.
Step 3
Press the Volume Up button and then press the Volume Down button. Press the Power button and then press the Volume Down button again. The screen goes black and then the reset process completes.
In this way you should be able to HR your device without turning it on and risking to damage it more with flashing

Thanks again for your help here !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The hard reset is not working. I tried this MANY time before posting (after about a day playing with it, at the point of giving up hope). I can try the key commands but, at no point will I EVER see the exclamation mark. No kidding, I must of tried this 40 different ways, with different timing, I can 100% confirm that something is screwy with this phone.
If I do the Power plus volume down (to try to get the exclamation mark), as soon as a let go of the power button and holding the vol down, the phone will go in a reboot loop.
The phone does not get to a point where the PC will detect it, it will start to boot up and it will show on the display Windows Phone, then Samsung logo, then it will just show the spinning gears(like it had a failed update). It does this for ever (I let it go 24 hours before pulling it). I can do the soft reset but, that is it...
It's packed up ready to go but, I'll hold it for a day, do you think I could actually recover this phone with a rom ?

I really don't know because I don't have the phone in front of me,so I can't 'think' to anything.
I just know that People flashed the custom csc..who knows,that could be Your solution-but could be not-.
I recommend you to read very well and many times the procedure.
Good luck and let me know.

Yea, I tried everything I could find in google and Bing...No luck, I'll send it back to Samsung to see if they can recover the phone....
Thanks again for your help. When I get it back, if it's running, then I will try to interop it....

You're welcome
When the phone will be perfectly working you 'll be able to interop it with wolf's custom csc (the thread I've linked to you)
Cheers
BTW, I have the custom rom for the Odyssey, its definitely got some odd bugs.
Verizon stores can reflash it for you too for free, just need to hit up a Verizon CORPORATE store. Apparently they have the tools and the ROM, instead of waiting for it to be mailed and come back.
Well I used the wolf custom rom and follow the exactly instructions but my phone now say is corrupted, and instead of boat show me a message telling me that!
So, I got another one and now has the same problem, so, somebady knows if there is at day an original rom available?
Still no public Odyssey ROM yet.
Good morning XDA participants.
I have a very big problem and I think that I converted my phone is just a paperweight.
After a lot of tries of change s-on to s-off, I was not able to do it. For some reason, I think that was a little tired and boring, I did something and now my phone doesn't load OS. Just turn on and stay on the HTC screen logo, I can enter to recovery but after try factory reset the problem continues.
Could be possible recover the phone? Or I have to forget that Will work again...it's just have 3 weeks
