My phone has CM11 snapshot M8
Earlier tonight Google services on my phone crashed and couldn't restart, the error message just kept coming up, so I decided to reboot.
When it tried to turn back on, it was stuck on the boot animation for about an hour, so I decided to go into recovery and wipe the dalvik cache.
But before I can press the wipe button, the teamwin logo just shows for a couple seconds and the screen turns black. Then the phone tries to reboot into system again. Which of course leads me back to getting stuck on the boot animation.
I tried it multiple times, but it just keeps going through the loop. My computer doesn't recognize my phone in fastboot either. Damnit.
What should I do now?

Hold down the power button and the volume down together, the lights on the bottom will flash 10 to 15 times, the phone will go off, at this point, release the power button but continue to hold the volume down, this will take you to the bootloader, post a screen shot of your bootloader please.

flash twrp again, clear cache and boot in recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
use twrp 2.7.1.1 with cm11
and your fastboot issue is probably caused by your computer OS. Windows 8.1 isnt compatible with hboot 1.44.

Luckily fastboot decided to work this time.
First I used the recovery I originally had in my computer but it said "error: cannot load 'twrp.zip'"
Then I tried downloading it from the official website again but it showed the same error message.
I'm running Windows 7 btw.

from cyanogen team:
Recovery Update
Beginning with nightly 20140501 (or milestone 7, if you prefer the stable channel), several HTC devices are being transitioned to a new fstab layout. This will not affect your data. This change requires kernel support in recovery for CyanogenMod packages to install.
Affected devices include:
evita - HTC One XL
fireball - HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE
jewel - HTC EVO 4G LTE
m4 - HTC One Mini
m7 - HTC One [GSM]
m7spr - HTC One [Sprint]
m7vzw - HTC One [Verizon]
ville - HTC One S
jewel and ville users: This is not the /data/media transition. That change is still being ruled out because there is simply no migration path that preserves data. With that said, if you are running an unofficial build of CyanogenMod that also incorporates this fstab change, TWRP recoveries are available from mdmower.cmphys.com. Look for jewel-dm and ville-dm in the filenames.
All of these recoveries are backwards compatible.
ClockworkMod recoveries with version greater than or equal to 6.0.4.8 support this fstab change. HTC One AT&T (m7att), HTC One T-Mobile (m7tmo), and HTC One non-US GSM (m7ul) can safely use the recovery for the generic "HTC One" (m7). Note: version 6.0.4.8 for m4 may have been built before by-name support was added to the kernel.
More recent builds of ClockworkMod recovery can be found at unstableapps.com
TWRP recoveries with version greater than or equal to 2.7.0.8 support this fstab change.* If you have a favorite recovery maintainer, encourage them to incorporate "block: by-name" support into their recovery kernels!
(*) Official 2.7.1.0 for m4, m7, m7spr/m7wls, and m7vzw/m7wlv mistakenly did not include the necessary fstab support, so 2.7.1.1 was released for these devices, addressing the issue.
More recent unofficial builds of TWRP can be found at mdmower.cmphys.com. You'll find source code for all these devices linked there as well.

so try to flash twrp again, erase cache, reboot bootloader, boot in recovery and wipe cache/dalvik. if it doesnt work, reflash the rom after a full wipe/format

LOL wow what a noob mistake :silly:
Yeah I had 2.7.1.1 all the time, both the original one on my computer and the newly downloaded one.
The .img file flashed successfully and erased the cache from fastboot, but the issue has not changed at all.
I went through the process twice and still no hope
I noticed something different though. I have a custom boot animation. Now whenever I try to boot it straight into system, it shows splash screen>CM original boot animation>splash screen>custom boot animation. This does not happen when it reboots itself when I try to go into recovery. It's just the normal splash screen>custom boot animation.

For some reason now
Any recovery I flash won't stick,
what i mean by this is that it boots into the recovery for a quick second (I can see it) , then reboots into the htc logo splash and hangs
(this is due to me wiping Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache, and System)
help please?
The only safe screen I can be on is bootloader, and I do have fastboot but if I do adb devices it's empty.
Also I used Hansoons 2000 HTC Vivid All-in-one Kit and I'm able to use commands such as
"boot into bootloader" and flash both of the recovery's provided.
But when I do "boot into recovery" I get the same problem of it booting for less then 5 secs, then reboots.

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

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.

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 was in the process of upgrading my HTC One from 4.2 and successfully unlocked the bootloader. But thereafter my phone just constantly reboots. It shows the HTC splash screen for about 10 seconds and the reboots again.
I am able to go into the fastboot screen (see screen shot). But when I select Recovery, the phone gors to the next screen - displays "Entering Recovery" - and nothing else happens thereafter.
Can anyone please help? Have looked at other such questions and tried but nothing has helped.
Thanks

I'm not sure you did ever flash a custom recovery!
1. Put your phone in fastboot from the bootloader meny. You already did this while rooting, so you got it already!
2. In your "SDK-tools" folder that you used while unlocking the device, put [nameofyourrecovery].img I recommend you to install TWRP 2.6.3.3, as it is the best one for flashing kitkat and lets you do this if you wish I cannot give you a link as I am a new member, but search google for TWRP 2.6.3.3 and you will find it. Make sure it is .img and not .zip!
3. While in fastboot, open a command prompt in the ADB folder.
4. To flash your custom recovery, type
fastboot flash recovery [nameofyourrecovery].img

You have an M7CDWG, twrp is for M7_U & M7_UL models, if i'm not mistaken. Start googling for M7CDWG, it's a completely different phone than the U / UL phones.
and you need to "fastboot erase cache" after flashing recovery

Not really, don't know much about your model. You'll need to find a ROM compatible with your device; if it doesnt specifically say it's for your device, then most likely it isn't!!
I think there's a Maximus HD ROM for your version, but i have no idea where.
Did you..
Aside from flashing a recovery and rooting your phone, did you make any other modifications or flash any other partitions?
If no, then wipe Dalvek cache from TWRP. Boot into TWRP and select Wipe. Select advanced. Select Dalvek and Cache. Wipe power down. then power on and see if it will boot.

i had a similar problem last week with a One, a friend bricked his One by flashing "???" Dont know exactly whar he has done.
The phone had boot loops all the time.
my solution was:
- connecting the phone with the usb cable to my pc.
- started the phone into fastboot usb mode
- started cmd at my notebook
- change to the directory which contains adb and fastboot
- execute: fastboot erase cache
- restarted the phone
the phone starts normally into ARHD 40.3
perhaps it works ...
I recently attempted to restart my phone but it never booted up after it was off... it got stuck at the boot animation.
I couldn't access recovery either because it crashes after the teamwin logo and just tries to boot into system
Which brings me nowhere because now it's back stuck in the boot animation:crying:
I didn't do anything to the phone recently other than flashing a splash screen onto it. The splash screen didn't change, though. Maybe it's because I still have s-on. I don't think that's what causing the issue because it booted properly twice before this brick.
I tried reflashing TWRP 2.7.1.1 and cleared cache from fastboot but nothing changed.
What is the issue here?
