Here is my story. I've been at this for three hours including searching XDA and other sites. Can't get any options to work.
I was trying to gain S-OFF. I installed a custom recovery (TWRP) and in doing so I could not see any files to flash the new rom... I tried flash CWM, it ended up booting to the CWM text at the bottom left with the version number, and then booting to the plain white (with htc one logo) screen and sitting there and not booting into anything else. Just sits there. Every recovery I flash through fastboot (which is my ONLY option into the phone it seems) does not boot up, the device just restarts to that annoying HTC logo screen.
I was able to get ONE recovery of twrp working and it boots up into it and displays all the options, HOWEVER, it cannot mount... Nothing will mount via twrp.
What can I do?

Flash twrp 2.6.3.3. Then run the fastboot erase cache. You should be able to get into recovery then. Any partitions that won't mount you will have to wipe in recovery. Then you can either adb sideload or adb push a Rom to your phone in recovery

That worked! You just fixed my phone! :laugh:
You sir are an :angel:
I had just about given up hope Awesome, learned something, too!
Looks like all TWRP features seem to work even install zip or flash rom.
Any ideas on the S-OFF? I can't seem to get it I tried Revone and Firewater. I have 1.56 HBOOT none of the options I''ve looked have worked.
Good to hear. What message do you get with firewater? If you get the whelp this sucks message only sunshine will work. Which will cost you $25

Yo.
After countless hours of just trying to unlock the damn fastboot/hboot whatever, I finally did it, flashed the recovery, then a custom OS. But I forgot to do the hboot downgrade s-off thing, and now it's stuck on the HTC logo and doesn't boot. I was supposed to try the IncS Downgrade script http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1373697
But this requires me to be booted up in a rom, which is kinda silly I guess because it restarts into fastboot afterwards.
But anyway, phone doesn't get recognized on the script when I'm allready in fastboot, and I've been trying all kinds of fixes and I'm about to lose it.
So I'm giving up and asking if anyone got a solution while I still got some of my sanity left :silly:

You said you are using cwm recovery:

so boot in bootloader mode, flash twrp 2.6.3.3 recovery then fastboot erase cache
boot in recovery and use adb push or adb sideload and flash arhd again.

if you already flashed cwm and viperone you should know these thing right?
you flash a recovery in bootloader mode using fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_file.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then boot in recovery and push your rom if its not already on your sdcard
Code:
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/
and select ''install'' and flash your rom.

Here is the situation I have an HTC ONE (M7) Here which does absolutely nothing but show this message...
It does not have usb debugging enabled and adb will not register it. I can however connect to it via fastboot....
Ive gotten as far as unlocking the bootloader... But now cannot seem to get any further as everything I have read uses ADB and i cannot get it to recognize ADB Device.
Basically from what i am reading.... Is flash custom recovery such as TWRP (Which i have downloaded) and i want to just reinstall stock rom etc. Not trying to root or anything here, just simply trying to reinstall factory software for HTC One (M7) - Telus Canada to hopefully resolve the issue.
Please any help is greatly appreciated I have been up now for nearly 20 Hours trying to get this done.
Exactly like this

Because you are boote din bootloader mode. ADB can't work when in bootloader mode, only from custom recovery or from a booted rom + usb debug on. Here a nice table I made last week to explain the same thing to another guy:

Post the output of "fastboot getvar all" (remove your imei and sn before posting)
Hello,
The other day i :
- Install PC driver for htc one m7
- I root my phone
- I unlock the boot loader
- I install TWRP (twrp-3.0.0-2-m7)
All of this without a problem !
Next i try to install Cyanogenmod 13, obviously a bad idea becuse my phone is on android 4.4.(3 or 4) and i choose the m7 version not the m7ul.
Now my PC don't recognize my phone anymore and when i press the power button the phone starts and show a bright black screen.
I've access to bootloader but the recovery don't whant to starts.
I try factory reset with no success.

Afaik, the "M7_UL" variant was merged to "M7" so you've flashed the right one.
Now my PC don't recognize my phone anymore

Isn't your phone detected when selecting "FASTBOOT" from the bootloader? You should then see "FASTBOOT USB" in red. From there you should update your firmware to at least 7.19.401.2 and reflash your recovery/rom if needed.

Factory reset is often misinterpreted. A factory reset will ne revert anything back to its factory state after you've modded your phone. The only thing it's doing is wiping the /data partition where your personal data and app data are stored. The rom didn't booted so there is nothing to wipe in /data that could fix your phone.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934534374
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip M7_UL_Firmware_7.19.401.2.zip
fastboot flash zip M7_UL_Firmware_7.19.401.2.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
https://android.cmphys.com/download/1250/?version=3-0-m5-0
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.M5-0-m7univ.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then try to boot in recovery and reflash your rom (if needed).
If its still not working you could flash the latest ruu and try again.
No just after i flash the rom my computer (windows 7 x64) stop recognize the phone.
I try on a win10 today my htc show a fastboot in red but no fastboot usb.
I'm blocked here. :s
Thanks
So before I start I just wanted to say that I have been rooting and installing roms back at the time when I had my galaxy s3, I knew this stuff before upgrading to my nexus 6.
So the problem as you can see on the title that I cant unlock the oem option, means I cant unlock my bootloader, but there is a twist.
When I bought my nexus, I remember it was 5.0, and there was an update to 5.1, the update was OTA, and I remember the update had problems, it couldn't finish and the phone stayed on 5.0 and you could not
update to 5.1 unless you flash 5.0 again. So I unlocked my bootloader back at the time, and installed 5.0 all over again, and everthing was fine until now(now I am on 7.0)
Now I want to root my phone and install things and I cant do that, because of the oem options, but when i go into fastboot it says device is unlocked, and when I turn my phone on under the google sign there is small open lock sign that I know tells the bootloader is unlocked.
So there is my problem, I cant root it and so on, very sorry of the long post but I think it was necessary so I could explaine my problem.

Not quite sure what your problem is. Your bootloader is already unlocked, you just flash twrp via faatboot
Code:
faatboot flash recovery nameoffile.img
then flash SuperSU. If it asks for a password, or you can't find any files on your device in twrp, that means you're encrypted, and will have to completely wipe data on device. You do that by hitting cancel (if it's asking for a password) then go to wipe. Then select format. You'll have to type yes. Now you'll be unencrypted.
As a side note, you may be able to get away with just flashing twrp, and then sideloading the SuperSU zip
