Phone will not boot regularly or into recovery

I am having quite a problem. I had unlocked the bootloader and rooted my ONE. Suddenly it decided to freeze on the lockscreen so i tried to reboot. It would not reboot and was stuck on the HTC ONE screen. I tried booting into recovery and sideloading the stock rom which did not work. and now i can not even boot into the recovery. please help. When i try to boot it up regularly it gets stuck on the Quietly Brilliant screen.

This will sound weird but seems to be helping people in the dev sections:
Put the phone under a bright light, and hold the power and volume down buttons.
I haven't had to use this particular method myself, but supposedly it works.

[Q] Stuck on White HTC Screen, Can't Boot Into Recovery

Hey guys, got a problem with my M7.
My phone was working fine. Was getting ready to flash a new rom. I moved the .zip into my root folder.
Went to reboot my phone into recovery to flash it, but it gets stuck on the white HTC screen. Powered off, booted into bootloader. Tried to enter recovery through bootloader, but I still get stuck on the white HTC screen.
Any ideas?
edit: and now, the phone won't boot at all ...

Well I'm pretty sure just copying a rom to the phone didn't do anything to it. what else happened between then and now
Nothing at all. Here's basically what I did.
1. Backed up phone in recovery.
2. Reboot.
3. Loaded rom to /root using computer.
4. Attempt to boot in recovery ..
And that's it.

is the battery dead ?
does the pc load any drivers when you plug it in ?
does the charging lights work ?
Nope, charging lights do not work ... It wasn't a full battery, but was around 70% last I remember.
Ok, was able to boot using the bright light method.
Still no dice on booting past the white HTC screen. When I try to boot to TWRP through the bootloader, it'll show the TWRP splash screen, then automatically go back to the white HTC screen.

Reflash recovery and erase cache
you may have to format data in TWRP and totally wipe the phone.
also flashing stock recovery and doing a factory reset from stock will rebuild the partitions and sometimes make the phone stable again

[Q]Problem entering custom recovery with my htc one.

Im sorry if im posting in the wrong place but i got a problem that i havent been able to fix. So i have a Htc one m7(at&t) is unlocked, has s-on and ofcourse is rooted. So currently im using insertcoin 7.0.4 and was using twrp custom recovery and it work perfectly. The thing is i wanted to flash the latest insercoin that is 7.0.7 but when i go to bootloader and hit recovery it goes to the logo part where it says "entering recovery" like always then it goes black for a few seconds and then comes back to the logo screen still saying "entering recovery" and it stays in that screen and it never goes into recovery. I try everything i used twrp and goo manager to install twrp or even clockmod and nothing it doesnt work, i even reflashed the custom recovery via command and nothing. My friend even install the stock recovery and it doesnt work. So i cant do nothing. My phone works fine, it is just that problem I cannot enter recovery. I search a lot but nothing help so please if you could help that will be a big help. Btw im sorry if im posting in the wrong place im new here. Thank you

Flash TWRP by MdMower, that should do it: https://android.cmphys.com/twrp-m7/
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.5-m7univ.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Can't install/wipe anything (rom, recovery, ecc).

Hi everyone.
I've android 6 stock (xt1068), and today i woke up and it doesn't work
I try to install the twrp and then to flash rom, ecc, but after that i install the twrp succesfully, when i go in the recovery i see that there is no twrp but the main stock recovery. This thing basically appens with everything that i install/wipe, infact the bootloader tells me that my action worked, but it didn't.
Another thing is that if i let my phone boot up, after the boot animation it tells me 'Starting Android', then this text go out, and for a second the boot animation appears again, after that all the screen goes black. (The phone is not closed, but it is showing black in the screen, i think you got it)
Thank you
