Need help, Not sure what to do!

Hey guys so another newb fail here, essentially I rooted my phone and installed a cmd rom and messed my phone up. Went through all the steps in trying to fix it, ruu etc but the ruu was out of date? Or my phone needed a different version. Anyway now my internal storage isn't mountable and I can't do anything. Very worried I ruined my phone! Does anyone have any advice?

A little more info would be helpful. Like what ROM exactly did you flash? Were you on the latest 1.31 RUU? Did you try flashing a 1.29 RUU?

It was this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2356654
once I installed that everything went wrong, but I found a way to reboot because I made a backup and it saved to my phone and then i installed them7spr-RootBox-JB-houstonn rom, that worked for a bit but I had no service at all. So I tried to do the RUU trick but didn't realize the numbers didn't match the 1.31 as it prompted (it was 4 in the morning and I was really worried so I tried everything) so that crashed and my bootlock was locked, I then unlocked it again and when I tried to turn it on it would just load the rootbox rom's loading screen then power off. But in short yes, I was on 1,31 and tried flashing to 1.29

Got a little update, so I downloaded http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2368907 and went into cmd and typed in fastboot flash recovery boot.img and got it to start loading the rom but it crashes after about 2 minutes. I can't go into recovery mode anymore, I'm assuming the flash wiped it clean? No idea what to do next. Any insight would be amazing!

1. Never flash ROMS that aren't made for your phone. ARHD is made for GSM variants of the HTC One only. I believe ARHD was also available for CDMA in point in time, but not anymore
2. You can't go back to previous RUU's unless you have S-off
Have you tried to RUU to 1.31? Did you re-lock your bootloader first? If not, do that first and you should be fine.

I can't seem to find the Sprint HTC ONE 1.31 RUU anywhere so I can use the program to fix my phone since I wiped the internal storage before pushing a rom to the device. OTG doesn't work. I have TWRP installed and I can get into fastboot, but adb isn't working at all. Any help??

Telus RUU HTC One M7 Error??

Good Evening:
I have a HTC One M7UL with Telus (Canada). I have been having problems with the phone charging while it's on and my last ditch effort is to go back to stock and hope something that's wrong will correct itself.
I have HBoot 1.44, S-Off, returned recovery to stock, relocked bootloader, 1.29.661.
I tried using the RUU_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_TELUS_WWE_4.19.661.8_R_Radio_4T.24.3218.09_10.26.1718.01L_release_351500_signed_2.exe to update and return to stock.
Everything goes fine until the RUU asks me to upgrade from 1.29 to which I select "yes" and then I get an Error (158) and it tells me to find the correct RUU.
Anybody have an idea what I'm doing wrong or if they have a different RUU that I should be using?
Any assistance that gets this working might receive a "donation"
thanks in advance.

install from recovery, you'll have to unlock your bootloader again though :/ and re name it to rom and just use command adb push rom.zip /sdcard

Just want to make sure, I just go into recovery, wipe and then install the file via recovery? Seems to easy. I don't have to relock bootloader or flash the stock recovery first?

[Q] HTC one m7 brick. Viper Rom v7.0.1. Kernel Elementalx.

I had just installed Viper Rom v7.0.1 and noticed my calls were not going through (HBOOT 1.44). I read that I should try installing a custom kernel. I decided on ElementalX. Unfortunately, I installed the NON Sprint version.
This created a boot loop.
I can get to TWRP recovery, wipe cache/dalvik, reinstall ViperRom (also tried Bad Boyz and Stock with Goodies which were already on SD card), but with the same result. I cannot get the computer to recognize the device long enough to get the correct kernel pushed on the device.
TWRP is updated. And I tried sideloading to no avail. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Also, the loop goes all the way through the Android App optimization, goes to the lock screen, but once I unlock, it shows the HTC boot screen, THEN it reboots...

it depends what partition got messed up by the kernel
you may need to RUU back to stock to fix it

Thanks for the reply! I've never had to RUU back to stock.... A quick google search says (since I'm s-on, HTC unlocked bootloader) my current firmware has to be lower than the RUU? Is this true, and could you elaborate? How do I find this inf?

a look at your bootloader would tell what version your OS is
or a fastboot getvar all (minus serial no. and IMEI) would help
the latest RUU > Sprint 5.xx RUU

Roms with Aroma Installer never work. Suggestions?

My HTC One has all the necessary prerequisites for flashing Roms. I'm not sure how to check s-off though, but I think that's the case. I can flash Roms that do not use Aroma, but if the ROM contains Aroma there is no use. They all freeze at a certain point, I believe around some part that has to do with the System. For example, Maximus HD freezes at 1% when formatting something. Any help would be appreciated. I have looked a lot for the last few days, and can't seem to find an answer.

Okay so I'm assuming that you're flashing a kk rom here. Are you on the latest recovery and also on a kk base with the latest radios and hboot already on the device? Also make sure you're flashing the right rom for you're device. What device do you have? And also send the link to the rom you're trying to flash just so I can double check that it's correct as if it's freezing at 1% then all I can think that is the problem is you're either trying to flash a kk custom rom on a jb rom without updated firmware and radios or your recovery is out of date or the 3rd reason could simply be you're trying to flash the wrong rom for your phone.

That is the rom, It's Maximus HD. My hboot is 1.54, I'm not sure if my phone has the latest radios, but I have the latest TWRP recovery. 2.8.0.2 I think? I have the HTC One M7 for AT&T., but it says HTC One UL in the same screen I found the hboot. I believe the phone was converted to the GPE edition since it says GOOGL1 on the hboot screen. (I bought this second hand)
EDIT: I just want to add that Android Revolution HD yields the same results, but at 10%. And my phone is currently on a stock build of Sens 6 4.4.3, but the rom before it was GPE.

If you go into your bootloader you'll see under the **unlocked** message you'll see something that has the phone model and then ship and after ship it will say either s-on or s-off and for the ROM you're trying to flash you have to be s-off thankfully you're on hboot 1.54 so you can use rumrunner to gain s-off if you're not so check that

Looks like I am S-Off already. This is strange. It's the only device that has reacted this way to Aroma. I will say that I decide to flash Elemental X today, and that uses Aroma. That worked no problem.

Have you checked the md5 of the ROM to make sure that it isn't just a bad download or something which you would just need to re download it again?

Redownloaded, same issue. My CID says CID-GOOGL1, could that be the issue? I heard that the CID is supposed to be something like 1111111 or something like that.
After every attempt, when I restore a backup, I see the text "E: Unable to mount ' /cache' " in red

Yea that's actually what I was just about to say haha I just had to grab the links to the CID's so you can find the one for your phone as it's a converted gpe phone not a factory one which means you simply just need to go to the link I'll post here and find the RUU that is for at&t and the CID will be listed under the download link then you just need to change it.
Link for CID: http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/ruu-file-downloads/
Once you've found your CID listed in the link which I'll have a look myself to see if I can find it for you but you need to then go into terminal or cmd and type in:
adb reboot bootloader
adb oem writecid CWS__001
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot
I changed the code so that it has the correct CID for you so just type in what I've typed there and you'll be back to normal and it should all flash fine

I always receive the red text saying it can't mount cache so don't worry it's not going to stop you from flashing that's just an issue that I have no idea what's causing it but cache is a temporary file anyway so it isn't going to affect installing a ROM well at least it hasn't for me

Need some help please

Needing some help if you anyone can help at all. I was trying unroot my Sprint M8. Something went wrong when I flashed stock recover wrong, I don't know what but the issues started after that, and now it keeps booting into bootloder mode and won't go pass that. I have contacted HTC Premium Support to see if they have any advice still waiting to hear back. I have contacted Sprint and they have told me to take into a store to see if it can be repaired. Does anyone have any tips or advice on how to fix this? Or do you know if it can be fixed by Sprint of if that is wasting a trip. Any help would be much appreciated. Don't know if this is the right forum or not. If not I'm sorry. Thanks for anyone in advance who has any advice tips or whatever it may be..

You can fix your issue with a RUU. Hit the second link in my sig and scroll down to the RUU section. Find the RUU that matches your current software/firmware version and follow the instructions in my thread to run the RUU on your device.

Even though I can't boot past the bootloader mode screen?

Download the latest RUU, and make sure that the appropriate drivers are on your computer.
Also, make sure that you lock your bootloader (fastboot oem lock) before running the RUU if you are S-On. If you're S-Off, just run the RUU as is.
If that doesn't work, come back here.
Edit: Magnum responded while I was still typing. Listen to him.
And to respond your question, the RUU is run from the bootloader screen, so you're exactly where you need to be.

Okay my bootloader is locked. The issues started some time between flashing stock recover and relocking the bootloader. It says Tampered Relocked Security Warning if that means anything.
Now I tried fastboot oem rebootRUU and fastboot flash zip firmware.zip when it is flashing the zip in RUU it says
targeted reported max download size
sending zip
OKAY
Writing zip

Is there anything to be done from here or should I just take it to the carrier store to see if they can fix it or should I just send it in for repiar to HTC?

Sprint should be able to fix it. Having said that, you don't need to try and run the RUU from a command line. Double-click the RUU file from your desktop to start the installer, then follow the prompts on your computer as they appear.

I have a question im on a stock rooted rom with no system changes except for the boot up sound which i restored. I flashed the stock recovery and then tried to take the OTA but it failed about a quarter of the way through. would my best bet be to just flash the firmware and flash a 4.4.4 stock rom with the eye feature when available or do I just do a RUU? Im just trying to keep phone up to date with stock rom. any suggestions?

Currently there is no stock rooted ROM for 4.4.4. You can update your firmware if you'd like and then wait for someone to publish a stock rooted ROM. Otherwise you can troubleshoot the reason you can't install the OTA and go from there.
