Hi Everybody,
I have a HTC one m7_ul (rooted). Actually camera flash light was ON for almost 5 minutes, and after that the device went on BRICKED state. In normal OFF condition it shows a charge symbol, when it is connected to charge sorce and the red LED is ON. when i press ( POWER + Vol down), it shows up Bootloader mode but it hangs when i select any of the OPTIONS ( fastboot, factory reset, simlock etc ). when i press power button for long time, there appeas normal htc startup screen and screen goes OFF after 15 seconds. In this situation if it is connected to PC, then it detects the device as Qualcomm Download mode ( QDL ). I tried the process explained by our senior developer dexter93
but this couldnt detect the device.
Thanks...

Hey,
I bought an HTC ONE M-7 from a user who was running it on a custom Rom and had it S-OFF.
While trying to put stock Rom on the phone via the pc, the pc crashed in the middle of the process and the mobile stopped responding. The phone stayed in this condition until the battery ran dry. Since that moment, the phone doesn't turn on by any combination of hardware buttons as mentioned on different forums. While plugged in to a power source the screen just blinks on and off.
I would be highly obliged if anyone can help me out of this situation.

Hi,charge it for sufficient time, Than hold power button for 15-20 seconds,the captitive buttons blinks & stops ,After that hold power & volume down buttons ,release power button u get boot loader screen in that fast boot using volume up/down button than select reboot .phone will reboot to load previous Rom
Does it get detected on the computer?
sent from my mobile device
Edit:
I might have figured it out, while I was in that red triangle / exclamation point screen, I pressed power / volume, then when the screen turned black (phone off) I let go of power and kept holding volume, and it finally entered the bootloader and RUU is now running. Will edit the thread again if that goes through. Leaving info in case anyone runs into the same issue in the future.
Edit2:
The RUU failed when the fastboot binary crashed on step 4 @ 96%, so I switched to a USB3 port and reran and it got through 100% without a hitch, now the phone is working perfectly.

Hi, my phone is s-off, bootloader unlocked, h7_wls.
I flashed 5.05.651.2_full_firmware.zip (to install the ViperOne rom - it says to update the firmware) through fastboot, running it 2 times as recommended. Then I ran fastboot reboot and the phone was stuck in a boot loop, the white screen with the HTC logo would appear, then the screen would turn black (still on as it has the IPS blue glow) then it turns off (full black) and turns on again to repeat the loop.
I've tried holding down volume + power until the home/back flash then letting go of power and holding volume, but the phone would just reboot without going into the bootloader.
I've also tried shining the LED from my other phone onto the light sensor and holding power for 15 seconds, which turns off the phone. If I turn it back on, it returns the phone into the aforementioned boot loop.
Doing the volume + power thing, and running the RUU_M7_WL_K44_SENSE60_SPCS_MR_Sprint_WWE_5.05.651.2_Radio_1.01.20.0904_2_NV_SPCS_4.38_003_release_393160_signed_2.exe file while the home/back buttons flash gets the phone into a black background with a red triangle / exclamation point but the RUU program exits with Error[170]: USB CONNECTION ERROR.
Typing adb devices while in the black screen with red triangle / exclamation point, it sees the device but says the device is offline, typing fastboot devices returns nothing.
I've tried 3 USB cables.
Not sure what to do next?
Thanks.

oh yeah this time happened to me as well
basically all your phone is doing is rebooting
you need to get it to power down somehow. I managed to force shut it down using the hold power thing and then held volume down and power to get to the boot loader
but if anyone is having difficulty another sure fire way to get the phone to shut down is to wait for the battery to die (may take a really long time)
Hey everyone,
I apologise if this has been asked many times before; but I need some assistance with my HTC one M7.
I was using the phone with low battery - with power saver turned on, it turned off completely after a few moments.
I have put the phone on charge, but the LED indicator is not showing up nor the phone turning on or charging at all.
I went through forums, and tried the power button + volume down button to bring up the boot menu, this menu did actually appear - but me being the fool I am - I selected the power down option.
I have been unable to bring the menu up again with the power + volume button combination.
I then connected the phone to my PC - where its installs a driver - qhsusb_dload. I have tried the power + volume button combination with it being connected to my PC - where I hear the device detected bing and device disconnected bing while I hold these buttons down, still unable to charge/power on/ or bring up the boot menu.
I have also left the phone on wall charger for over 12 overs again to no avail.
Can anyone provide any advice - or any method I can salvage the data stored on it i.e. photos?
Thanks for reading - appreciate any help!

If you get it to go into that boot menu again. You sometimes have to hold the power and volume down for about 15 seconds, then release them and again start holding the volume down. This is something I had to do to get into recovery back when my bootloader was still locked.
The power may not coming on, but if you are getting usb sounds from plugging it in maybe the computer you are connecting to could be switched.
I had hard times connecting before from certain machines cause they wanted to run an HTC Sync program. You could try a different machine.
Often people say regarding the behavior of the 3.0 vs 2.0 USB ports, that it is 2.0 that will work. And you might try a Vista machine to get fastboot working.

qhsusb_dload is a well known issue, not caused by the computer you are coonecting to. Its can be caused by a bad firmware flash (flashing an incompatible firmware.zip) or because of an hardware failure. Easy to know what is the cause. Did the phone randomly went in qhsusb_dload mode? Yes ---> Hardware,will most likely need a motherboard replacement. Did the phone went in qhsusb_dload directly after flashing something? Yes ---> Software problem can be fixed with the unbrick project.
I'm a bit stuck with a weird case; I have a rooted Z3C(locked bootloader) which I achieved by following this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/how-to-root-backup-drm-keys-t3013343
It's been working fine for 1,5 year, when suddenly a week ago after the battery was low and shut the phone down, it got stuck in a bootloop while it was charging (already over 40%).
Couldn't get it to boot into recovery mode(nor it was detected by flashtool), until after a few days I was able to acces TWRP, made a backup(still got that, as well of a backup from the TA partition from 1,5 year ago). And then wiped the phone with TWRP as well. After another attempt to boot (which didnt work) it was able to get into the clockworkmod recovery(it's a surprise how that got on there), and chose "restore". There was a blue light and the screen went black. And it did so for over 5 minutes which made me(and a "techie") think it had probably crashed, so we forced shut it off(power button + VOL up, vibrate 3 times).
Since then I'm pretty much stuck with the situation from earlier but instead of being in a bootloop, it is now stuck on the kernel logo "Sony xperia". I can't make it boot in any kind of mode, I can only force shut down by power button + Vol up. It When trying to boot by using power button + vol UP it doesn't do anything; when using power button + down, it directly gets stuck at kernel logo.
At all attempts to boot there is no LED apprearing, LED only goes on for about 5 seconds when plugged into laptop or charger, and last the phone is not detectable by flashtool(or xperia companion).
Currently following this thread and waiting for the battery to drain: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849170
But I wonder if that will do the fix...
In the meantime I'd like to know if there is anyone who might have some tips of what I can try?

Can you enter flash mode or fastboot?
nope, I can't enter either of them.. Unless there is a way to acces flashmode or fastboot mode without using the button combinations?
I've never stayed in your situation. Try turn off, wait the flashtools send the messenger with instructions to plug the phone, press vol. down button and plug in usb.
personally, i don't like end the whole battery in Sony's 2013>2015, because my fist sony, a M2A, after shutdown by low power, never turns on again... only tree reed lights - uhh, sony with jealous of xbox -, i change the battery and the bricks continued. Not healthy to sony hardware do this, i mean.
https://www.engineerthink.com/blog/2015/11/how-to-unbrick-hard-bricked-android-phone/
But if the last option, do that.
What you are discribing to do with flashtool, I already tried, it doesn't recognise the phone. I even tried "tricks" of different buttons and tempo's bu tthat doesn't help making flashtool recognise the device.
Also I was not able to make the phone completely decharge itself. This morning, after it drained the battery all night long by letting it stuck on the Sony logo, it came up with the battery empty logo when pressing power button. It is not possible for me to drain the battery even more, except if I keep pressing the power button every minute to activate the battery logo...
I tried the instructions from the link you pasted, to get it into fastboot with adb, didn't work, at the first command it already said it couldnt find the device:
C:\adb>adb reboot fastboot
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
error: device '(null)' not found
So, when You have powered off phone, hold vol- and plug it to computer does led on red than green and off?
And fastboot when phone powered off (hold vol+ and plug usb) doesn't work too yes?
@yaroszek, no when "powered off phone, hold vol- and plug it to computer" the LED goed red for a few seconds and then goes off(no green at all), and the screen will show the Sony logo.
when trying to fastboot with "phone powered off (hold vol+ and plug usb)" exactly the same happens...
My phone suddenly restarted and stuck on Android One logo and not booting further. I've turned the phone off and started after few seconds and it was still stuck on Android one logo. Then I've tried to get into recovery mode by pressing Vol Up + Power but it was not working. Also it's not responding to the charger. No battery sign and nothing. It does not respond to power button many times. I've also tried to get into fastboot mode (Vol down + Power) and even it was not working. Please help!
It's not rooted and didn't try to flash/install custom ROM.

Take phone to discharge batttery and automatically turn off. Plug in to charger for few minutes and press and hold volume up,volume down and power for 2/3 minutes. He should be turn off and then you can go in to recovery.
Suffering the same problem.
I'm having the same problem. Exactly what you said. I didn't root my device or even attempt to do anything. I bought Nokia because they were purely stock and delivered some quality mobile phones. I've got only this phone as my daily driver. So tell me if you have got the issue fixed and how much did it cost and how long it took. It's been stuck with that 'android one' logo and a small message that reads 'Download mode' on top. I've tried everything. And what I'm worried about is, my phone's out of warranty and I'm a student. I hope you got it fixed for some reasonable cost. Please reply to me ASAP.
