htc1 m7 keeps rebooting and won't detect network - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Last week after software update using auto update Option , after installing the softare , the phone will keep rebooting and won't detect the network. I guess that my phone battery was low at the time of installation(10%) however it was connected to a charger. The problem is after turning on the phone, the phone will reboot after aprox. 1minute 50 seconds and the htc1 won't show network. The settings option in network setting would appear greyed out.
After this problem, I tried factory reset, no avail. Tried recovery from bootloader option but no avail.
Tried Using RUU- RUU_M7_U_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.29.401.2_R_Radio_4A.14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01_release_311663_signed_2_4
Gives me error 155 in Update Utility.
After searching the threads, I decided to unlock and unroot the phone so that I could install any custom ROMs, did unlocking and unrooting.
My htc1 m7 with following specs now
Tampered
Unlocked
M7_U S-On
Hboot- 1.57.0000
Radio0- 4T.28.3218.04
OS-6.15.599.101
Android version 4.4.3 and Sense 6

Some guys recommended me to post my query on xda and I came here with lots of hopes. Unfortunately after couple of days no one from expert community has responded to this query.

you not being ignored, their is no real answer to your problem
you can flash stock recovery for 6.15.599.101 if you can find it
and try the factory reset from stock recovery (not bootloader)
If you have TWRP 2.6.3.3 or higher on the phone now you can choose to format data and then push / sideload a 6.xx.xxx.x rom to the phone. Their are no 6.xx RUU so that's not an option. If the phone died during the update theirs no telling what partitions are damaged so the format data option is your first step

Firstly loads of thanks.
I have tried hard to find 6.15.599.101 RUU but no success.
I should use the second option to push 6.xx.xx.x rom, can you advice where can I find it. I get confused between kernel & OTA, which one is a ROM or neither one?

Use this >> http://www.androidrevolution.org/downloader/download.php?file=Android_Revolution_HD-One_81.0.zip
adb push Android_Revolution_HD-One_81.0.zip /sdcard/
or adb sideload Android_Revolution_HD-One_81.0.zip

My device is already formatted and I can only access bootloader(TWRP recovery) and if I boot the phone it gives me white htc screen.
I have downloaded the Android_Revolution_HD-One_81.0 fastboot works fine however adb won't detect my device. I have sdk tools from adroid.development and the latest version of adt tools.

boot into TWRP
from the PC command prompt
type adb devices
if it's blank you need to reinstall the htc driver
if your device serial number shows it's working normally

When I use the adb command- where should my phone be? adbsideload? fastboot?
The adb won't detect my device even with htc drivers re-installed. When I use the adb sideload button in the TWRP , it stays there for ever.
Can we use fastboot command to flash the ROM, the way we flash recovery?

Finally I was able to sideload- adb sideload Android_Revolution_HD-One_81.0.zip
After the sideload was 100% my phone was black screen, was no more in recovery TWRP.
What next step to take?
When I restarted the phone, it will again show the white HTC screen , won't go ahead and boot.
I am s-on and with TWRP 2.8.0.1 recovery.

Using twrp, 2.6.3- I sideloaded adb sideload Android_Revolution_HD-One_81.0.zip
By the time sideload= 100% on cmd
Phone recovery-twrp showed, zip sign verification failed.

I unchecked zip file verification from settings and this time was able to complete, followed the step by step installation. After the installation was complete, cleared cache and dalvi and performed system boot. The phone restarts but its again stuck at white htc screen.

Made another attempt to sideload and it was successful, phone booted and rebooted. Phone turned on but again restarted after few seconds, the same way it was behaving earlier. Any suggestions?
I was checking htc Dev site, it has download section with my OS version no. 6.15.599.101- is there something I can do with this file to get my phone working.? m7u-3.4.10-ga936d02.zip is the file.
What are options to get RUU for 6.15.599.101 ?

You still never tried the stock recovery / factory reset
maybe you can extract it from that file
maybe @Danny201281 could help you check and repair your partition's if he has time

I tried factory reset and stock recovery at my first step long time ago. Only after failing, I tried the TWRP recovery and Android Revolution.

When you say it's formatted are you sure about that?
Format Data is not the same as Factory reset or Wiping partitions. You need to use the Format Data option in twrp to be sure. So in case you haven't already and probably wouldn't hurt to do it again anyway.
Boot into twrp recovery Select the Wipe option and then Format Data option. You will be prompted to type "yes" to confirm. This will wipe everything from your device including your Rom and internal storage. Reboot to recovery to restore a completely new file system to your device.
Now with the phone still in twrp recovery, Select the Mounts option and uncheck all the boxes to unmount the partitions. Return to the twrp home screen (you don't need sideload mode for this part) in the command line type
Code:
adb shell
e2fsck -fvy dev/block/mmcblk35
e2fsck -fvy dev/block/mmcblk36
e2fsck -fvy dev/block/mmcblk37
exit
Once that's done you can push or Sideload your Rom. Personally I prefer the push method but which is easiest for you is fine.
Ideally you want to do a factory reset with Stock recovery also but since you can't find one unless you can extract it from the file on HTC dev just try the above.

I was using the format data option before as well.
This time, followed the step by step procedure and installed the OS, the phone booted again but it restarts after sometime as it was at the beginning of the problem. Any suggestions?

When the phone is booting, does it take longer than normal? And does it bootloop before finally booting.
Unfortunately this is starting to sound like a hardware problem. After formatting the memory, repairing partitions with e2fsck and flashing a new Rom there's not much else can be done. If your still getting random reboots then something is defiantly a miss.
You can check your supersu app to make sure is properly rooted, by opening supersu, it may ask you to update the Binary's.
Or just flash this in recovery to make sure your on the latest.

Please help unbrick a Telus HTC One

Hi everyone.
I unlocked the bootloader and rooted a Telus HTC One. But the latest flash went wrong and I went into bootloop. Somehow, I seem to have gotten myself into a situation where there's no ROM installed. I can still get into Bootloader and Recovery. When I try to start the phone, it's stuck at "HTC Quietly Brilliant" screen.
I've tried factory resetting, wiping everything, relocking the bootloader and loading the Factory RUU Zip using the All-In-One tool kit by Hasoon, and sideloading a ROM. Nothing seems to work. I also managed to push a ROM to the phone using the adb push command. When I try to install it using TWRP, I get an error msg "Unable to open zip file." It failed using CWM recovery as well.
When I plug the phone into a computer, it recognizes something is plugged in. But I can't open the drive at all. I get error msgs when I try to mount sdcard, system, data, anything. Things don't seem to be mounting/recognized at all. HTC sync and drivers are installed.
Experts, what else can I try?
Try downloading a Telus clean nandroid backup. Then go back into recovery (depends of what nandroid you get, make sure you have the right recovery, so if you download a CWM nandroid use CWM).

Thanks for the suggestion. Not having any luck finding a Telus nandroid. Would it make matters worse if I try to restore from a non-Telus nandroid? My phone can't mount the /sdcard right now. Suppose I'll have to adb push it to the phone again?

You don't mount the sdcard in HTC One you mount the data partition.
Also what happens if you sideload a ROM?
PHP:
adb sideload <ROM>
Have you tried erasing cache after installing a ROM if successful?

When I sideloaded, It said
Can't Open /sdcard/rom.zip" (bad).
Installation aborted
Sideloading now gives me this error
failed to open driver control: No such file or directory
Restarting adbd
hmm, okay. I thought since recovery says "Install zip from sdcard" i thought /sdcard needed to be mounted. /data is mounted at the moment. No connectivity between computer and the phone unless through the All-in-one kit.

And I haven't had successfully installed a ROM since I bricked the phone.
Install a custom ROM and kernel on your USB from the computer, mount the USB in Twrp using the otg cable. Flash ROM, if it doesnt boot, flash the kernel.
Flashing the kernel fixed it for me.
Another way is to use an adb pusher app and transfer thevfiles to your SD card.

[Q] Can only access bootloader. Soft brick?

Hey guys,
Today I attempted to root my HTC One. I successfully unlocked it and successfully flashed twrp 2.5 onto my phone. Without creating a backup and after flashing superuser and arhd 11.0 my phone would only boot into bootloader. Then I found I had trouble going back into recovery. I tried reflashing twrp and it worked and led me back into recovery. I was unable to find any of the ROMs I put into the internal memory and I get an error that says I am unable to mount data. I've tried flashing cwm recovery, which only lead to booting into bootloader, and then back to twrp which worked at first, but now I can't get either to work. I've been at this for hours. Hope any of you guys could help me out. Thanks in advance!
Also, I think my problem began by trying to flash arhd 11.0 from stock without doing a full wipe.
Update: Was able to get twrp to work again by clearing cache, but still unable to mount data.
This is an error i see inside twrp.
E : Unable to mount '/data'
E : Unable to recreate /data/media folder.
Updating partition details...
E : Unable to mount '/cache'
E : Unable to mount '/data'
E : Unable to mount internal storage.
E : Unable to mount /data/media during GUI startup
E : Unable to mount '/cache'
E: TWFunc : : Copy_Log -- Can't open destination

Update: SOLVED. Tried flashing Viper Rom and it worked great.
I believe that you install ARHD 11 from a 4.1 based rom, right? If that's the case, moving from 4.1 to 4.2 will mess up your data structure a bit. Because you have flashed arhd 11, all the rom files you had put earlier on 4.1 will be at other folder. My advice is you boot into twrp, open adb sideload (advance menu). On your computer use "adb sideload rom.zip" (rom.zip is the name of the rom you wanna flash). After it loaded the rom to the sd card, reboot to bootloader and you should see a file named sideloaded.zip. flash it. After finish, clear cache and reboot system.
or you can search in media/0
hope it helps

So I should sideload and flash a 4.1 based rom or a 4.2?
I've tried sideloading ARHD 11 and it brings me into the same bootloader loop. Could you send me a link to a ROM that may work?
Here's the steps I am taking if it helps;
1. fastboot erase cache
2. fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
3. go into recovery
4. adb sideload arhd11
5. reboot into recovery
6. flash sideload
7. reboot system
8. gives me a message saying my phone is not rooted would I like to install SuperSU now?
9. regardless of if i put 'do not install' or 'swipe to install' phone reboots into bootloader and I start over with the same problem

Can you access recovery?
If yes, adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/
rom will now be on your sdcard after the transfer. install it.
all roms using aroma installer crash sometimes, just keep trying.
edit: IF you can't find it, select install zip from sideload in recovery and command
adb sideload name_of_rom.zip
after the transfer it will begin to install automatically - you shouldn't need to reboot after a sideload.

Yes, I can access recovery. Just tried this. After flashing ARHD11 again I am still rebooting into bootloader.
Maybe it's just the ROM itself that I'm having trouble with? Could anyone direct me to one that will work for sure in my case?
Also after every flash, when I choose to reboot, twrp gives me a message saying my phone is not rooted and if I should install SuperSU. Should I say yes or not install? or is there a problem with flashing the ROM?

So ARHD goes through and installs (as in gets to 100% in aroma) then reboots to bootloader?

Yes. And the only way to get back into recovery from there is to reflash. I also can't use cwm, I can only use twrp. If that means anything.

HTC One Soft bricked many problems leading to more problems!

Ok So I have an HTC One m7. and I had CyanogenMod installed. Then jsut today I decided I would go back to Sense 6. So I download Android Revolution HD 71.1 for m7 install it on my phoen. Then CWM(Which I hate btw and can't uninstall no matter what I do) says your phone is not rooted would you like to root it when I click reboot phone. No matter which I click I get stuck on the HTC logo boot logo. I don't care if I lose my data or anything so I click factory reset, then wipe cache, then wipe dalvik cache. Then I get the error were it constantly says cant mount /cache or whatever. So to fix it i wipe Dalvik Cache again. Then I try sideloading ViperOne Rom. Guess what It give me *failed to write 'protocol fault <no status> *
Then I tried formatting my data with CWM which took 2 hours and still didn't complete so I rebooted(which led to more problems) Now I cant say install from sdcard because it gives me the error E: Can't Mount /sdcard. So that means I cant adb push Viper /sdcard. I have no Idea what to do. Help me please!

its simple to fix, your problem is simply cwm recovery, you need to use twrp to flash either of those rom's, so start there, recommended is 2.6.3.3, its the most problem free.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then enter recovery, select wipe then format data, push or sideload a rom then flash it.
ViperOne Install Instructions
1. Download the the latest ViperOne full ROM zip from the download section
2. Place the file somewhere on your phone storage. Alternatively, if you have a USB OTG cable (I have this exact one), you can place the rom on a USB key (FAT32, NTFS are all supported).
3. Confirm the MD5 on the download page matches the MD5 of the file on your phone (ES File Explorer will show the MD5 of the file)
4. Reboot to TWRP Recovery
5. Backup current ROM if desired
6. Install ROM using TWRP and select wipe during aroma install if coming from another base
7. Reboot and Enjoy

did you format data first ? any unable to mount messages, you could also try advanced wip and select everything in the list.
try pushing it instead
with the phone in twrp main screen only, no sub menu's and the rom in the same folder as adb and fastboot on your computer type:
Code:
adb push (name_of_rom).zip /sdcard/
takes a while and will look unresponsive, but the cmd window will let you know when its done. Make sure you unplug your phone before flashing.

I recommend you start from scratch
from the bootloader / power down
wait a couple min and boot back to fastboot
plug the phone into the PC
from your command prompt type
fastboot devices
see your device serial number
type
fastboot erase cache
type
fastboot reboot-bootloader
now try sideload your rom from TWRP 2.6.3.3 /advanced/sideload

So you have CWM / TWRP installed? Try copying a ROM to the external SD card, and install it that way. Clear everything in recovery first, cache, dalvik, etc... I had the same problem with the M8 and it drove me nuts until I did it all from the SD. If not, I would suggest trying the full RUU, it has saved me many a time.

I have the m7 not the m8. So I have no sd card. What is the RUU method? I have TWRP installed right now.
This is getting on my nerves. Ive been sitting here for 6 hours and I posted 4 times and I still have not fixed this problem!!!!!!!! No one can explain clearly or respond to me even. Half my problems are being ignored. and half the things I say are being ignored.

Oh that's right dang it. When I had my M7 I converted it to a Dev Edition by changing the CID and then using a file like this:
http://dl4.htc.com/RomCode/Source_and_Binaries/m7ul-3.4.10-g77e9ea0.zip
Mine was an ATT version so MID matched.

Hey, hey, hey, patience my friend, we are here to help, ALL of us, we are trying.
Scratch that link, it doesn't like direct posts, find the Brighstar WWE RUU by searching at: http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads, or find the ATT, or TMobile. Not sure what your carrier is, but the Dev Edition is the way to go.

The link just sends me to the htc website. Also what does converting my m7 to dev edition do exactly? Will it help with the Sideload problem or the cant mount cache problem?
And I know you guys are trying to help me. Im just mad because everything I do is not working. Im searching all over the internet and nothing is helping. Errors lead to more errors. Reminds me of the time I tried learning progrramming and I made a simple program but It wouldnt work. I posted it on 3 websites and no one could help me. So I'm sorry for going off like that.

I know it can be frustrating, but nothing you can do to the M7 can hurt it. Try the link above HTC doesn't like direct links.

ok im doing it right now. Im AT&T btw.
I seem to have fixed the E: Can't mount cache problem. All i did was go to advance and click only on cache. Now all I need is to sideload or pus my ViperOne rom over to my HTC. Then hopefully nothing goes wrong. What do I do once the zip file is done downloading?
That might not be the right one, it should be an exe around 1 GB in size, sorry. Look around for it, if it's not still posted at the HTC Dev site, then it is around here somewhere. There are also some nandroids I have seen that should help you restore to stock. Nonetheless, once you have that Viper Rom on there, you should be able to flash anything you want. A full RUU will restore your phone to the state in which you bought it in, just like brand new.

[Q] 6 Hours later - Still Bricked.

Hello,
First and foremost I would like to give the important information away:
Phone: HTC One (M7)
Carrier: Rogers (I think same as AT&T?)
State: Unlocked, S-On, TWRP v2.7.1.0 installed, Hboot 1.57 and without an OS
The story:
Advance Wiped Everything:
So I didn't transfer the ROM before I used the "wipe" option in TWRP and deleted everything (using advanced wipe). Now I'm left with a phone that is "soft-bricked".
ADB Sideload
I rooted and installed TWRP my phone using QbKing77's guide
I tried googling a soultion and found a guide that told me to enter TWRP->Advanced->ADB Sideload and realized my phone cannot enter ABD sideload mode...so I'm like there must be another way, so I look up ADB push and again the same problem...it wont work. ADB shows: "error:device not found" in cmd.
Drivers
Now I think the problem is in the driver and I have reinstalled all the correct drivers (including Android SDK Google USB drivers). Then it strikes me that if the problem is with the drivers why was I able to use fastboot and not ADB?
RUU
After 4 hours of trying I gave up and was like lets try a RUU, same freaking problem. I get error code 155 which after researching seems to be pointing at my phone's bootloader not being "Re-locked" when the freaking screen says ***tampered*** re-locked****. So now I have unlocked it again and relocked the bootloader again, still no luck. I tried downloading different RUUs for both Rogers and AT&T and both give that exact same error even after "fastboot oem lock" command. After giving up on that I go back to try to entter ADB sideload mode via TWRP, I downloaded TWRP 2.5-2.7 and none of them would allow me to enter ADB sideload mode.. As of now its been 1 hour and TWRP still states: "Starting ADB sideload feature...".
Conclusion
If there is any way to get my phone to it's stock settings (IDC about the tampered, and relocked messages) I am all ears, I'm sorry if the information given isn't organized enough, but I'm very exhausted at this point. I will be more than happy to answer any more questions anybody might have.
Thanks!

first, do not use twrp 2.7.1.0 but 2.6.3.3 and use HTC divers not Google drivers. you will then be able to sideload or push a rom to your phone. Also make sure to use at least adb 1.0.29, sideload will not work on previous version.

Thanks for your response.
I have flashed TWRP 2.6.3.3, and when I boot into recovery it asks me for a password? I was still unable to boot up ADB sideload (This time I get an error message instead of it failing to start all together). But I was able to access the adb shell and was able to push a custom rom into the device into /data/ and then tried installing it, which failed.
I flashed the ROM using this command: fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
then after the transfer was done typed: fastboot erase cache
as of now when I type adb devices into the command prompt my phone is being detected which is an improvement from last night! Thanks!

you don't have to use an adb shell to push a rom, only use adb normally from your computer with the phone booted in recovery. And the destination of the rom when you push it is not /data, its /sdcard
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/
when complete, select "install" in recovery and choose your rom.

The rom.zip is now in my /sdcard/ folder and when I try to install it I get the following error:
Code:
Updating partition details....
E:Unable to mount '/cache'
E:Unable to mount '/cache'
E:Unable to mount '/cache'
Error Flashing zip '/sdcard/rom.zip'
Updating partition details...
E:Unable to mount '/cache'
and my ADB version is 1.0.31
Edit: So I went in the mount option and noticed that "cache" was selected so I deselected it and tried to flash again and it just said
Code:
Error Flashing zip '/sdcard/rom.zip'
Updating partition details...
So now I'm thinking there must be something wrong with the ROM, so i'm downloading and will retry.
Code:
KitKat (Android 4.4.3 + HTC Sense 6.0)
Download Android Revolution HD 81.0
Nope, that didn't work either. Could it be that I need to put in that password first? If so what is the TWRP password?

looks like you have enabled data encryption in the OS...
in twrp wipe everything and format data
then push the rom again and install it.

htc one m7 does not appear in file explorer, reformatted phone, twrp working

The Issue:
At the moment there is no data or OS installed, however I can access recovery mode.
1. HTC one device does not appear in file explorer; there are no issues with drivers, I've reinstalled and installed all Htc drivers, multiple usb cables have also been used.
2.No OS installed; third party programs require android debugging enabled to recover data.
The Story: was running the android had revolution rom when the I used the Xposed framework uninstall application.. This malfunctioned and set the phone into a boot loop. After which I accidentally formatted my phone.
The Questions: is it possible to fix this myself? Can I recover the data from the formatted storage? How do I get it to connect?
Every piece of help is much appreciated!
Update #1: i attempted to adb push a rom but the "device or resource is busy"

update#2: attempted to reformat again, following android HD revolution's guide.

What version of TWRP are you using?
Is your device detected when booted in twrp? Use the "adb devices" command
Also post the output of "fastboot getvar all" (phone must be in bootloader mode), don't post IMEI/serialno

Well it looks like you have a problem with your adb, uninstall it and re-install the latest android sdk tools. You sure your phone was booted in twrp when trying "adb devices" ?
You won't be able to see your phone in the file explorer with twrp 2.6.3.3
You won't be able to flash newer roms with your old firmware (1.29.980.2).
You could flash CWM recovery and restore this nandroid backup and then update your phone

adb issue solved FINALLY PROGRESS!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH
so ive flashed the most recent CWM recovery and ive adb pushed the most recent TWRP, when i flash the TWRP i have file explorer access .
i tried flashing the nandroid backup but i get this imgur.com/MJ1RMi1

Yup, recent versions of TWRP have MTP support unlike 2.6.3.3
but im getting an issue when i try to restore the linked nandroid back up where it says "couldnt open directory" then "no files found" in CWM recovery.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Extract the backup folder from zip file and save it in your CWM backup folder: /sdcard/CWM/backup/backup_folder_here
TWRP recovery cant seem to locate the back up either, it just comes up as blank in TWRP.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
A cwm backup must be restored using cwm only, it will not work with twrp.
edit1: i was just looking at this guide http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.com.au/2015/02/how-to-find-proper-firmware-variant-on.html and "If your device is S-ON then both modelid and cidnum must match."
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The backup linked above is for your phone, the version-number match yours so the CID and MID will also match. But reading this wasn't a waste of time, now you understand what to look for when searching for a stock rom :good:
so is it okay to flash that nandroid back up?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, 1.29.980.2 is for MID: PN0714000 and CID OPTUS001, TELNZ001, VODAP021 or HTC__039. If you type the "fastboot getvar all" command, you will get PN0714000 and one of these 4 CID listed.
"Extract the backup folder from zip file and save it in your CWM backup folder: /sdcard/CWM/backup/backup_folder_here"
After i did that CWM gave me the same "no files found".
so trying to work backwards i made a CWM backup and tried to find where that was saved, which did not appear in file explorer. Turns out its in data/media/clockworkmod/backup ugh but it finally boots now :laugh: :victory:
is my firmware the reason why when i flash android revolution HD custom rom, it gets stuck on the HTC one beats audio screen?
