For some weeks I have problems with my HTC One. At this point, I can run the setup of a custom ROM but It seems not to write to the system partition. I'm stuck at this moment.
[History]
I bought a HTC one, Used it for a year and wanted to install some applications who needed root access. Like my previous phones, I rooted it but the only difference is that I didn't installed a custom ROM. No need for that at this moment.
After some weeks there was a OTA update from HTC with Sense 6.0 or something. I was not able to install this update because at the restart it came in recovery mode and not in a predefined HTC state (I assume).
To get rid of the annoying "There is an update" message, I downloaded a custom ROM and installed it. So far, so good. After a while the phone run flat on the battery and after that moment I was not able to charge the phone again while android is started. The phone appears to be in USB host mode and is not able to charge. Only way was to charge the phone completly off. I asked a colleague who said that I had the wrong kernel.
I tried to install another ROM and there something went wrong. I assume that I formatted the data and the system partition and there was a moment that the phone run out of battery during installing a custom ROM. My colleague had my phone for several weeks and tried something. Didn't succeed in that. He tried RUU my phone but that failed because I'm S-ON
[And now]
I have access to the fastboot menu via the bootloader and I'm able to go into recovery (Clockworks 6.0.4.8). I had twrp but than I was not able to ADB my device
I was able to repair my data partition and pushed viperROM to my phone. I run the installation, at the end I got a message like "unfortunally, setup has stopped". I rebooted my phone and nothing. No Android.
So back to square one. now I've two options (imo)
* repair data partition / repair system partion and try again
* S-off my device and run RUU
I need help for both options, because I found a way to repair my data partition but not a way to repair system. And for option 2, I'm not able to use revone, firewater or so because there is no android on my phone.
can someone help me out with giving me instructions in the right direction or maybe a third option to go.

I need some guidance on trying to resurrect an HTC Incredible 2 (Verizon) that is currently a stock unit (never rooted or unlocked) that will not boot - gets stuck on white HTC screen. The person using it, went and upgraded to another device and was about to throw the unit out until I decided to take one crack at a rebuild.
I can get into the HBoot screen and have attempted numerous factory resets to no avail... system will simply show a progress bar that never moves.
I've been searching this board and can't seem to get a clear way to get a full image back onto the phone. I've tried some of the moves to copy a RUU file to P32IMG.zip but keep getting "main version is older" messages from numerous different versions that I've tried. (So, the unit is reading the SD card correctly)
Can anyone point me to a guide to simply blast a new image onto the phone (preferably via the SD Card, since I'm not able to get onto the phone via a USB cable - even after I've installed HTC Sync). I don't care about rooting or unlocking as a first start... I just want to see if the phone will boot and doesn't have a hardware problem. ...and most of the rooting/unlocking guides on this board assume you can boot to Android as a first step - which i cannot do.
Here are the version numbers from my HBOOT screen:

Hoping u do have ADB FASTBOOT installed on your computer if u dont the HTC DEV will provide you with all the files u needed
For start you need to log-in in HTCDEV web and get phone unlocked NOT (s-off) and try flash a recovery of any choice (experiment step checking if u can still boot in HBOOT or not)
Ok can you get into HTC LOGO with an Exclamation mark (!) .If yes u will still be able to Send command via Fastboot .Now that you have HTC SYNC (untill unistall the unless and just keep HTC drivers) .You did tried the RUU but an network locked or an unlocked can be on of the issue why it never worked and hence u never get into HBOOT screen. Download any rom of your choice and a Recovery either CMW or any u want move the rom in SD CARD.. Once u reach the Deleopment LOGO (Exclamation logo) flash the recovery Via CMD " fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" and try reboot you phone if it still does not boot in the HBOOT(If i worked it step one) all u gotta do now is boot is recovery install any rom u want and flash the boot.img manually (Fastboot flash boot boot.img) . Wipe cache devil cache battery state (aka clean slate)..
Assume it never worked at forst place ..Take the Network specific RUU and boot your phone into DELEOPMENT MODE and run the RUU (if an error pop's up) simple disconnect the phone take the battery out and try the HBoot boot (It has worked a lot when an error message on screen) phone choose to boot into recovery.
And the longest trick is get it unlocked via htc dev (UNLOCKED) and downgrage your Hboot verson to its lowest (S-off) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2118187 and redo the earlier steps
Hello --
My US T-Mobile HTC One received the Kit-Kat update today (first day of upgrade). It is stuck on the white "HTC One" screen and cannot go past it. Phone is (was?) stock T-Mob Android rooted. I went back to the stock recovery to ensure the update happened properly. That whole process of rooting, using custom recovery, etc went pretty smoothly. Now it is just stuck on that boot screen. T-Mobile logo appears very briefly looks corrupt/scrambled. I can issue ADB commands so I know it is talking to the device, however the device says "offline" and I cannot get it go "online". I tried other USB cables, kill-server, start-server and nothing is bringing it back online. Screen has now been on over an hour (I cannot get it to turn off completely in the boot screen). I figured being it is talking still to the device (although offline) maybe all is not lost.Anyone with any advice on how to get this up and running before I have to return this to T-Mobile and pay hefty probably for this.
If anyone can help, maybe the below will be helpful:

Did you figure out how to solve the problem?
Can you get into the bootloader and wipe the device?

I used Guru Reset from http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/stock-rom-downloads/, then used a USB OTG cable and a mouse to get the first update, then got the second update, then reflashed TWRP, then rooted.
If I did it again I think I'd go the RUU route to save me from having to use the mouse and do two updates.

Thanks for asking. After a couple of hours of panic and then reading on here, (if I remember correctly) I kept powering it until it gave me the option to fastboot (vol-down, power -- but I had to keep trying it because it would not take or boot properly consistently). I was able to flash RUU onto it, somehow lost all the data on the memory card (maybe this is normal?) and then was able to take the update. Not sure what happened there, but once I did the RUU, it was able to take the boot and update and re-boot itself to complete the install. For me, it seems like something was wrong with recovery. I flashed the stock one, but perhaps I loaded the wrong one (although I had been booting/rooted practically since I had the device a year ago).
And I thought this would be a simple update from T-mobile Stock Rom to GPe Rom. The good news is I have another idential virgin HTC T-mobile M7 (bought two), and could happily make backups from that one if doing so would help here.
I have a T-mobile HTC One M7.
Here's what I did:
-installed twrp sucessfully
-unlocked bootloader sucessfully
-installed this rom vita twerp: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341395
Then the problems, which I no doubt made worse with my efforts to fix them:
-experienced a bootloop after the ROM was sucessfully loaded
-tried to fix said bootloop by flashing the Guru Reset file ( http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/stock-rom-downloads/ ) corresponding to my model, namely http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_1-27-531-11-zip/ .
-Realized too late that this file wouldn't work with the touchscreen on my M7 because the firmware was newer than the rom. So now the touchscreen is completely non responsive.
That would be fine, except somehow in the process I broke both twep recovery (I can't load into recovery anymore), and the usb connection to my PC. (The bootloader screen says "fastboot usb" when the cable is connected, as I gather it should. But I can't find the device via adb.
Interestingly to me, I *can* still write from PC to my internal storage when I do a regular boot. So USB debugging is still enabled (indeed I can't disable it, because of the crippled touchscreen problem).

Looks like your OS is gone. Did you try and reflash twrp?

Try running this 3.24.531.3 ruu, instructions on page.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2375223
Thanks very much folks. Somehow, I was able to reflash twrp. From there, I realized that one mistake I made was overlooking that I needed s-off activated before flashing the ROM. (I think that was the beginning of my difficulties.)
Before reflashing twrp, I tried the RUU suggestion (TY!), but that needed bootloader turned back on, which in turn needed s-off...quite a procedure.
Anyway, With s-off done (thanks to the very persistent rumrunner_HTC_0.5.0.zip !), a second flash attempt of the rom at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341395 worked seemingly perfectly. I now just trying to figure out whether I can get wifi calling working reliably (should be able to in theory, and at least one poster in that thread says he's done so).
Getting the HTC one properly modded is not a simple process relative to my prior experiences. I'm grateful for the help!
All of that work in the beginning was not needed. All you had to do was unlock bootloader, S-Off, change CID to 11111111, and run the GPE RUU from HTC. That's it. I had an ATT version that saw every different incarnation of software and it was that easy every time. Went from ATT to GPE, to T-Mobile, to Dev Edition and back without a problem. Well, red triangles of death be damned, but it never slowed me down, and the only time I got those was when I mis-matched the recovery img, or tried an update with a HBoot higher that 1.44, those are the only thinga to watch for. Make sure your ducks are in a row and update away. Stock recovery and lower Hboot worked awesome. I probably should put together a master file of everything I have for DL because I have it all and would make life so easy if someone hasn't done it already.
hello everyone I have a HTC one stuck on boot. To start, it was working fine then i started to get it unlocked(gsm) to use it on gsm network.
I was able to unlock boot loader, root it but i was not able to unlock it with terminal from the instructions provided from other threads nor the application from google apps the message said it was not a sense rom. I kept reading then i found out i was suppose to put viperrom so the app could run but after i put that the phone started fine but the touch stopped working so i was in step one.
I kept on researching and found out about the drivers and read that i was suppose to put bad boyz rom i download it but I'm not able to load it on the phone. I have a macbook pro, i have parallel desktop where i run windows 7, and i also tried from mac Terminal to no avail is been over a week now i been messing with this. I also tried the stock restore to put it back to stock but nothing. when i start the phone this is some info i find on the menu I'm new to HTC ever since i had the htc pro 2 so your help yowl be greatly appreciated it

Hey guys,
So first sorry for my bad English but I’m from Germany And also I’m a total amateur with Android and roots and all that stuff.
Now back 2 topic.
So I bought my HTC One (M7) almost a year ago. I rooted it, unlocked it and also got S-Off. Yesterday I tried to get it back to stock so I could finally get some OTA-Updates. When I first entered the bootloader (if that’s the name of the white screen) everything seemed normal. But after I left my One got stuck in a Bootloop. I thing I know the cause for that but I will come back to that later.
My big problem is that while I’m in the bootloader my PC cant connect with the One. The device-manager says something like “cant start the device (code 10)”. So I cant use RUUs and the likes to get it back to stock. I tried all kinds of drivers and all USB-Slots I got. Nothings changes.
Another problem is, that my Phone is back to S-On, though I have no clue what I could have done to do that. And that brings me back to the Bootloop. After I wiped all my Data I could start my phone and had no Bootloop, everything worked just fine (though no APPs where left of course). But I got the message I should Install SuperSU. The second I did that I was back in the loop. So I think S-On and SuperSU is not a good combination. But since I cant connect the One via Fastboot I also have no clue how to S-Off it again.
If I just could connect the Phone with my PC via fastboot I would probably be able to get stock back. Does anyone know what the problem might be?
I don’t know if it helps but the bootloader says:
