Very Urgent help needed - Stuck in bootloader

I flashed Revolution HD, the latest version and when the phone re-booted it went to bootloader.
I managed to flash TWRP again and im in there, however I need to put a ROM on the phone and cant copy one on there
any ideas? adb says device not found, not sure if im doing something wrong

try fastboot devices

You can try this to sideload a rom.

Okay, managed to get ADB working. For some reason it doesn't work on USB3 ports :S
Sideloaded a ROM, but I got no network signal, and it restarted itself within about 2 mins.
I have re-locked, and am running RUU now, if this doesn't work what shall I do?

Okay the RUU worked fine. Thanks for the help guys!

Latest versions on intl. roms are 4.2.2. They won't work on sprint. Since there is no sprint support the updater script wipes our radio and boot partition because they have a different partition table than we do. It's just f.y.I so you know what went wrong

Yeah I realised, but the text in the post is VERY misleading.

Maybe its just me being crazy, but I assumed anything later would work, to me that sounded like everything below 9.4 would not.

Diddo
The exact thing happened to me!!! the ARHD posts are very misleading!! I also had to do a RUU on it.. it made me made cause i really wanted that rom. Have you found any other ROM with 4.2.2 that will work with sprint htc one? I cant find anything.

[Q] Constantly restarting at welcome screen

Hello guys,
I'm in a bit of a pickle here....
I've got a HTC One which I've rooted and unlocked though not S-Off by the looks of things and I had SinLess rom installed fine, it started playing up so I though I'd update it. Bung the new one version on there via sideload and install... Marvelous.
Only now, it gets to the welcome screen as silly ol' me did a factory wipe as well as all cache and after about 5 seconds of Welcome - Choose language. It restarts.
I then decided to try a new rom, so grabbed Android Revolution. To no avail either....
On bootloader it shows as HBOOT - 1.54
S-On
**TAMPERED**
**UNLOCKED**
What can I do to actually get a working rom on this thing?
If there is any more details I need to give please say so as this is my first time flashing something as complicated as this. All my old android devices were far far simplar :crying:
- Here's the facepalm moment - I didn't do an nandroid backup due to it not working and I wanted to put a new ROM on there so I didn't look into getting it working. If I could injure myself I would.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. :good:
Kind regards, Ian.

Hey your'e stuck in a boot loop, its usual
just download a good stable rom
clear data/ cache
flash the rom and you'll be out of it,
If this thing doesnt work out download the orignal RUU and get back to stock

Yeah, after attempting to install 3 different roms.
Sinless, ARHD and SkyDragon, I'm going to try a different recovery as I'm currently using TWRP 2.6.3.3 and I know there is an update but also I want to see if CWM can do anything with the 6.0.4.3 version....

Hello,
To no avail, after trying different recoveries, nothing.
Looks like I've got a metal slab...
It just keeps restarting itself at the welcome screen, the only other thing I can think of would be to fully wipe EVERYTHING on the phone but I'm not sure that's too good of a move either...
Argh.

You have to be s-off to run these Roms

Help -- May have bricked my phone

Hi all,
So I wanted to flash ViperOne and saw that it requires 2.6.3.3 for TWRP, so I went and found 2.6.3.4, and went through a big excursion trying to get that to work with ViperOne 5.0.0, and it turns out doing all that somehow really messed my phone up. I don't get service, I can't set the phone up, it has a bunch of problems. I managed to get TWRP 2.6.3.0 working for my phone, and flashed ViperOne 3.5.0 but do not get any service on it, same with just about every ROM I run now. It can't even get to the setup screen, which is a big problem as well.
Any idea what I may have done to mess my phone up so badly? I'm really starting to freak out over here.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: Managed to get a backupe restored from a while ago of ViperOne 3.5.0, but it constantly restarts on me, as well as my data doesn't work. When I turn Mobile Data on it immediately says "Disconnected" and will not find a data network. Any ideas?

Does it matter that I never actually flashed a ROM for a GSM device? I stuck to only flashing ROMs that are compatible for my device, it was just the recovery I flashed wrongly.

OK, awesome. That makes a lot of sense, as it was having a lot of errors involving mounting. I am downloading one of his S-ON firmwares now, and am going to go about attempting to fix it using that guide. I will update with the results.

Here install this and you can try multiple recoveries to see which one works for you. I think that is your problem. Just a side note...you have to use the volume and power buttons to navigate through aroma installer. Hope this helped man. Let me know

Just try capt throwbacks version, you'll find it on the mikmik website or in his signature.

FYI, I posted in the other thread he made about the issue and it is indeed a problem with twrp recovery, it is not fully compatible with the hk version for some reason, I "solved" my issue by using philz touch recovery

I am currently running capt. Throwbacks recovery but I will give the other recoveries a try as u suggest. I'll let ya know if I get one to work.

Sorry to thread jack if that's what I'm doing but his issue was probably fixed as he has not updated this and it's touching on an issue I have with Aroma installers....I've tried the Bad Boys, NVProject, Bad Seed (i think) and one or two other Sense ROMS and they all use Aroma installers. Even that Recovery Switcher that uses Aroma I can't get working properly. I believe in many cases the touch screen is supposed to be working but mine will not work nor do that arrow keys + power advance me down the list of options. I can SOMETIMES check the agreement boxes if I hold power and press a bunch of times on the screen while hitting the side buttons, lol. This 'technique' has gotten me almost all the way through an Aroma installation but, inevitably, I end up hitting back instead of finish or can't make anyting but the "about' to come up.
I have no problems installing AOSP and AOKP roms via Philz or the Twrp I was using its only the Sense ROMS/Aroma combo that are giving me trouble....
Currently I am S-OFF and have reverted back to the sense stock rom and taken the OTA which has me up to software version 1.54.654.13.
I am having issues with my 3G and getting stuck in 1xRTT or Roaming constantly but I think this may be a network issue as tens of thousands of acres have burnt to the ground as close as 1 mile from my house this week and Sprint said they had dispatched some technicians to examine some of their structures/tower in southern california......
The only other thing I can think of is that I had to fastboot oem writeCID 11111111 to get the RUU to work...was I supposed to change that to something else afterwards?

The problem is the aroma installer hasn't been updated to be compatible with spirit as of yet. Use the volume up/down to highlight things and power to select. I think it's vol down 4 times and then up once to get to next. You will get the hang of it.

ok sorry havent updated til now but i have tried all the recoveries in the zip to install multiple recoveries easily and not one of them would work to install viperone rom but i tried bady boyz with them all as well and i was able to get that installed using philz recovery but none of the others worked with it. when i try viperone with any recovery it wont even start up aroma intsaller at all just gives me failed right away in the recovery. so as of now im on bad boyz rom but i want viperone rom im not satisfied with any other. bad boyz is a good rom dont get me wrong i have just used viper since i began rooting my phones and i love it. anyways aroma works for the recovery install zip just fine (other then the touch not working) so i dont knopw if its a recovery issue or something with aroma or possibly viperone rom even i have no clue?. thanks for all ur replies and suggestions everyone ur a big help always. id love to get this solved so i can run viperone rom again as i had on my first H/K M8 that i exchanged for the current one i am using. sorry again took so long to update

oh as to the volume/power buttons for selecting the options in aroma. i believe that there is no exact combo to get the selection on the next button. ive had 1 or 2 pages that i only hit down once and it selected next right away and then sometimes it didnt. so it varies on the up down number of times. ive had it not work using down so many times then up once a few times so its hard to really be certain . just my finding about that issue.

I know my issue was fixed by using philz recovery, wiping data, cache, and system and then installing a new rom. If the issue is what I think it is, then wiping all the partitions I mentioned should fix it. (I think the issue is related to some file system corruption and twrp not being able to properly handle the corruption, when other recoveries work just fine, so formatting the partition will get rid of the corrupted data)

You can wipe boot partition as well, just dont wipe anything you dont immediately recognize (I know philz touch has tons of options to wipe different partitions, and a lot of them probably would be bad to wipe lol)

ok i wiped said partitions and tried installing viper from philz recovery and twrp recovery and no go same thing happening. almost got worried when i tried rebooting and got the "no OS installed, r u sure?" but i just installed bad boyz again to get going again. im gonna try RUUing cause now i get a message after my phone starts saying something bout inconsistent partitions, u must wipe data partition or phone will be unstable. so gonna just RUU and start from there. do u know by chance if it is possible to create a backup with say twrp recovery and able to restore it with any of the recoveries such as philz or does a backup need to restored using the recovery it was created with? thanks again.
Here is a shot of what I received in philz after attempting viper install. http://i1369.photobucket.com/albums...s/2014-05/IMG_20140519_010012_zpsl8wwj5mi.jpg

ok so i RUUed with the RUU u suggested and then tried installing Viperone rom and still getting the same failed status. i tried restoring my backup i made before attempting these suggestions and it seems they do not restore completely either. errrrr so frustrating! my first M8 i had no problems with root soff recovery or installing viperone... this one is just not going so well. im gonna keep at it tho until i get viperone on my phone. lol

Good news.. I was able to install ViperONEm8 rom finally after all the hassle.
i went to TWRP recovery website and downloaded the TWRP recovery 2.7.0.2 and downnloaded ViperONEm8 1.5.0 version and flashed the recovery and installed the 1.5.0 version without a problem i tried 1.6.0 first but got the failed thing again but 1.5.0 installed no problem. YAYYY!!
Thank you all for your help

Deleted stock OS and backup!!! HELP

I had rooted my device HTC One M8 (Sprint), and while attempting to flash the Venom ROM I deleted my stock OS as well as my backup. I am able to reboot into reboot into TWRP recovery and fast boot usb is recognized. However while attempting to use commands on terminal (Mac and PC) nothing is responsive. The only thing I can think of is trying to flash the stock Harmond ROM since there is no stock ROM for Sprint's regular M8 posted online yet. Another problem I have is to flash the Harmond ROM I would have to have S-Off, but unfortunately mine turned back on after I wiped everything. I was told by another person to side load a ROM but like I said commands are not working. I have also tried flashing from installing them on my external SD, but all the ROMS I have found require to have S-Off. Please help and tell me I am not completely screwed.

You don't need S-off to flash any of the ROM's here. S-off is preferred if you're able to obtain it on your device, but it's not required. Use the mount option in TWRP to move a ROM from your PC to your phone, then flash the ROM like normal. Don't forget to make a backup once you're done getting things set up.

I installed two different Harman stock RUU's onto my SD card and got activity on the boot loader screen loading them. Then after the forced reboots it would just send me into the white HTC starting screen and wouldn't do anything after that. Also tried two of the Venom ROMs but the touch screen as well as the volume up/down do not allow you to select continue to proceed the flash process. After doing some research Sprint carriers, which I am have the same issue. Have also tried Revolution and Badboy from my SD card and nothing came from them.

You have to have SuperCID to run the HK RUU. See the thread for more info. For the touch issue in Aroma, check out the thread in the link below:
