Maybe its saying your installed system version doesn't match the one that came with the hboot version. Maybe the tampered is something to do with it.

This guy had a similar problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2493798&highlight=os+red+text
But then again, yours looks pretty weird: you bootloader is showing two firmware versions: 2.24.401.8 and (3.62.401.1) AND ON TOP OF THAT you're S-On, so you cannot flash unsigned firmware.
were you trying to flash a signed firmware package by any chance?

But he was S-Off. You are S-On -> very dangerous flashing firmware with S-On, as you can only flash signed firmware, and only upgrade NO DOWNGRADE.
would I be correct in assuming you did the following commands:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip <name of firmware>.zip
fastboot reboot
as opposed to:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip <name of firmware>.zip
fastboot flash zip <name of firmware>.zip <- yes it has to be done twice, the first one will report failed, the second should succeed.
fastboot reboot

The Guru Reset will flash stock ROM (and stock recovery and radio, if you select them in the installer), but it may not solve the firmware issue.
I am just guessing, but because you only ran the "fastboot flash zip <name of firmware>.zip" once, your firmware may be in a state of limbo (if I can call it that):
on one hand it was prepared to upgrade to 3.62.401.1 and that's why it's in the brackets, but since you didn't run the fastboot command another time it actually stayed on 2.24.401.8, and that why you have two different firmware versions in bootloader; one installed 2.24.401.8 another "waiting" to be installed 3.62.401.1. (all this is only a theory)
So what are the options now? Since you were trying to upgrade your firmware (even with S-On, which I take is your preference to stay S-On), I guess you should do it, but this time do it correctly and run the fastboot command twice and make sure it reports success the 2nd time around.
Here's what I would recommend (taking into account you do not wish to S-Off),
1- do a nandroid of your phone, then backup everything to your PC (including the nandroid), just in case.
2- update the firmware, but correctly this time
3- depending on what ROM you were on, either restore it, or get an updated version for your firmware
And actually, before that, if you just want to test the Guru Reset:
1- do a nandroid of your phone, then backup everything to your PC (including the nandroid), just in case.
2- flash Guru Reset and see if that works out for you
Those are pretty much my thoughts
PS: when I say backup everything to PC, it's because (sometimes) flashing stock recovery will completely wipe your phone including internal storage (not to mention that unlocking bootloader does that too)

Quite right it was you, sorry I didnt help out, but I honestly didnt know what the problem was. Only after seeing this guy's screen with two different versions and S-ON, did I think it was an incomplete firmware flash.
Might have been the case with you as well, but I couldnt tell cause the versions were the same, and you were S-Off.
Anyway, lesson learned.

Please help, possible brick after following guide to flash firmware

I was following Vomer's guide on my One, which has been working great. I had HBOOT 1.54, S-Off, SuperCID, and pushed the firmware twice, got the success message, and waited and when it says finished used adb to tell it to reboot. Now I get the splash, with the lock gone, as expected, and then the screen goes black. If I hold power, or power and down, the hardware keys start blinking and then nothing. A few seconds later I get the splash again, then blank again.
It appears to be communicating briefly over USB because my laptop starts trying to install a HTC MTP device (drive is already on the PC and has been fine) before it looses comms and drops out. I can't seem to get adb device to recognize it....
PLEASE tell me someone can help me recover my phone!!! I will be immensely grateful.

And what the HBOOT version you wanted to downgrade to?

I wasn't trying to downgrade HBOOT, just rather ensure my firmware was up to date. I'd had mine set up as a GPE and was flashing the DE (after supercid).
By way of an update, I've been able to get into bootloader and I'm a bit scared on what to do next so I dont screw this up. I notice that I still have S-OFF, but HBOOT is now showing 1.56 and it says RELOCKED at the top. My plan was to use rumrunner (just because of the HBOOT, but it is erroring anyway) to unlock bootloader, and then to look up the fastboot commands to push a ROM and recovery. Any advice?

Downgrade to 1.44 and change cid according to the Rom you want. Then unlock or set your bootloader to LOCKED
Here is the file for 1.44 http://www69.zippyshare.com/v/95229262/file.html

You can unlock if you want to flash custom recovery.
Place the file i gave you to the fastboot folder. Boot into bootloader and choose FASTBOOT.
Run the following : fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip filename.zip *where filaname the actual filename of the file i gave you
You will get FAILED or sth so do this command again to succesfully flash the firmware.

Awesome. So I've got HBOOT 1.44, S-OFF, bootloader unlocked, supercid, and TWRP 2.6.3.3 flashed again, and I tried sideloading ARHD rom. It all looked good but same thing for the moment, I get the splash and then black......I can't figure out why I can't boot into a rom right now. About to try flashing ROM again.
Okay, so didnt' work. After sideload flashing gets to 100% it just does nothing. Manually rebooting gets me back into the splash then blackness bootloop......

Can you issue fastboot clear cache in bootloader and see the outcome?
Also as you are Soff, you can run dev ruu

The former didn't get me anywhere, but I did follow your thinking and decided to use the RUU and start over. I'm happy to report that got me going, and then I was able to get AR HD on. I probably had to do that all along once I wiped the ROM and recovery, as sideloading clearly wasn't going to work (in retrospect) as it has an AROMA installer.
Thanks so much everyone!!

[SOLVED] [Q] HTC One Doesn't boot, Can't Get Into Bootloader, only Fastboot

Hi guys,
I've searched the entire web (including all the XDA links regarding the HTC One), tried every solution out there and still can't fix my problem. I don't know where else to turn, so I am creating a new thread in XDA Developers.
Originally, I had unlocked my bootloader and rooted the phone to use stock android. A couple days ago, I tried to re-lock the bootloader and change back to the original Sense UI; however, when I did this, I got stuck in a boot loop (the phone kept rebooting and didn't boot into the OS).
I then went back into fastboot and restored all the files and settings.
Now, the only things I can actually go into is fastboot and bootloader (cannot boot into OS or even see the boot screen). The only way the phone can connect to my PC is if I'm in fastboot. When I go into bootloader, the phone disconnects from my PC.
My phone is from Telus in Canada and I can find a couple .zip RUU files on the web for Telus, however when I try to flash the phone using the command "fastboot flash zip filename.zip", I get the error "signature verify fail."
When I tried to use the RUU.exe from BrightStar (developer version), the update failed and there was a message saying to download the original firmware.
The last thing I tried was the command "fastboot oem rebootRUU" (I did this to change the CID and MID, so I could use the Google Play RUU). When I do this, it goes to a black boot screen that has the HTC logo in grey (this is the boot screen I got from trying to use the BrightStar RUU.exe. It was originally a white screen with the HTC logo in green.). When I'm at this screen, I can communicate with the phone using fastboot commands, however when I try to change the CID, I get the error: "status read failed (too many links)," and when I try to change the MID, I get the error: "Command error !!!"
Just to remind you guys, I can only communicate with the phone using fastboot commands. No adb.
I have officially given up and gone crazy! Please Help!!!
*UPDATE* - Sorry, forgot to mention that I've idiotically re-locked the bootloader. Unlocking the bootloader would probably get rid of the "signature verify fail" message. I'm unable to flash the recovery because the bootloader is locked and I can't get into the filesystem because the phone needs to go into the OS for that.
When I try to unlock the bootlader by using "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin" it gives me the error: "cannot open 'Unlock_code.bin'."
I need to be able to access and make changes to the file system by using fastboot commands and I have no idea how to do this.
*UPDATE #2* - I've managed to re-unlock the bootlader (I didn't have the Unlock_code.bin file in the same directory as the current directory in my cmd window). I've re-flashed the recovery successfully. Now when I reboot, it goes into recovery mode (still can't boot into the OS). I'm using ClockWorks for the recovery.
Now I'm unable to root the phone. I'm trying to write SuperSU v1.65 to the phone by using the command: "fastboot flash zip UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zp" and I get the error message: "remote: not allowed."
I can flash the recovery.img and boot.img (can't flash system.img because there's "not enough space"), but I can't flash .zip files
When I try flashing another boot.img, I still get the same thing. The phone goes to the boot screen and can't boot. Then, it reboots and goes automatically into recovery (I can still get into the bootloader and recovery).
Any suggestions to get past these permissions?

I'm sorry, but I'm kind of a noob. How exactly do I re-flash a recovery. do I do this using the command: "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" or should I try "fastboot flash zip filname.zip" (RUU.zip) again?
*UPDATE* - I've tried erasing the cache and re-flashing the recovery and I still get the error message: "signature verify fail."

I'm still waiting for someone to help me. Is anyone going to help me fix my problem or is my HTC One doomed?

adb commands will work if your in twrp recovery
and the reason your ruu.zip failed is because you were not in fastboot oem rebootRUU when you tried them, seems you mixing and matching different forums of flashing .. it don't work like that.

1. fastboot oem rebootRUU (this will show a gray HTC logo on black screen)

Boot Looped Incredible S... Last Try

Hey guys,
Last year I rooted my Incredible S and installed one of the CyanogenMods. Everything seemed to work fine until this spring when it started bootlooping on me. At first I could bootup and after running my phone for a few hours it would start looping. So I got a new battery which I thought would solve the problem, it didn't. Now I can't even boot up anymore without hitting the loop. I can only enter HBOOT.
I've tried following a few guides but I can't get anything going. Buying a new phone Friday but before thought I might as well post here. Any help?

I can enter fastboot but recovery and factory reset start a loop.
Thanks guys!

What recovery do you use?
Can you enter it?
If yes.. Just download one of your fav's roms, but it in your SD-Card, Wipe Everything, and Flash the rom (&GApps if AOSP) and reboot..
If No, Connect your Phone To PC and fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" :laugh:
Let me know if worked

Download and install a recovery, i recommend 4ext
See if u can enter it then...
I must tell ya, never give up, i remember myself forgetting to flash boot.img and having my dad almost killing me ^^

Thanks for the responses!
@Mohamed Ab M I cannot enter recovery off of hboot. I can flashboot and I tried to flash "recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-inc.img" but nothing improved. Is there something else I can try?
@oziboy Do you have a link for 4ext? I see the website but it looks like an app? Also, how do I wipe everything if fastboot is my only option right now?
Haven't given up yet but I only have until Friday!
Edit: Is there any chance this might have something to do with the radio?

ok tried two different things. Downloaded the recovery.img of 4ext from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377751 and fastboot flashed it. Nothing changed.
So I tried flashing a different radio... still no go.
Not sure what else I can try?

Well.. I can think of one thing :|
Try doing these commands in fastboot:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase data
fastboot erase cache
Maybe something is wrong in system.. I don't know
Btw dose it say "success" when you flash a recovery? Or it fails?
And if It didn't work... Try running an RUU :| and you will lose everything:|

I don't mind losing everything, already backed up contacts and messages when I could still access the OS.
Can you recommend a good RUU to try? What is an RUU? Thanks for the help!

Then for a ruu go here http://androidruu.com/getdownload.p...33U_3831.18.00.11_M_release_266013_signed.exe
This should be the ruu that you need assuming your phone is a WWE, if you phone isnt WWE then use this to see what version is for you, make sure u only use vivo and not vivow
If the link to installation in beginning didnt work, that link was a link to the old thread of the RUU'S but anyway i posted the links for ya
Now all you gotta do is download the ruu , get ur phone to fastboot and do fastboot oem lock and then run the ruu on your computer and then go here for the rest http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1359555

Got into fastboot and entered "fastboot oem lock" but kept getting an error, command error or something.
Downloaded 4 different ruus and got the "rom.zip" file and renamed it to "update.zip" and tried "fastboot update update.zip" on all of them.... no luck. Something about wrong signature or something.
Thanks for everyone's help but I don't see anyway out here!

And u tried to run the ruu.exe without extracting the rom?
It saved my incredible s and my one x+
And to flash a rom.zip u need fastboot flash all rom.zip i think

This is actually doing something! I didn't realize I could run the RUU when plugged into fastboot. Fingers crossed here....
I got two working but both still resulted in a bootloop. Which convinces me the problem must be hardware or something. Oh well, it was a good device in its day.
Thank you for all your help!

Bootlooping is not a hardware failure..
Can you flash a recovery now? And use it?

Erm, now try extracting rom.zip and fastboot erase all and fastboot flash all rom.zip
Then id it does t work, flash the stock recovery from somewhere, only then you can use update.zip, this just came to my mind
If after flashing stock recovery try fastboot oem lock again and then go run the ruu.exe again
If it doesnt work then, then you gotta fastboot flash boot.img manually, this file is located in the rom.zip
If that doesnt work, try update.zip again with stock recovery
Must tell ya, its not hardware
You gotta give up only when your mobo is fried, and thats what i did on my htc one x+...

In the previous step I got S-ON set back on, does that change anything? Because now it seems that fastboot erase all doesn't work
erasing 'all'...
FAILED <remote: not allowed>
Trying the other steps you gave...
edit: I extracted a recovery_signed.zip file from the rom.zip file and tried to flash it using flashboot. Getting a signature error, though I know it is the correct RUU I am getting it from.
FAILED <remote: signature verify fail>

Try fastboot oem lock again, im 100 percent sure thats the command to lock it, i had almost the same issues when i failed my first try at rooting xD
Aight have you tried fastboot flash all rom.zip?
And then manually flash boot.img from the rom.zip?

None of those are working, getting errors on all them.
My HBOOT is not reading this, does this change anything?

Hboot is successfully downgraded, now follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2118187
From step 9

I can't follow that guide because I can't get into the android os to turn on usb debugging. My problem is still the boot loop.

[Q] S-On and unable to reflash stock rom

Hi. I have been searching for two days on how to restore my phone to a stock Rom. I flashed some lame Rom that I can't remember the name of (has a blue firebird boot screen...) and now that's the only Rom I can flash. I tried many rims but haven't had any luck. I know the lame Rom I flashed made me first flash a boot image. I trtried reflashing a stock boot image but it doesn't help. The stock roms succeed but stay stuck on the lock screen totally unresponsive except for the power button to hard reset... I'm trying to get S-Off with FireWire but it fails saying that it cannot s-Off my device. Cannot RUU since I'm s-on and have no clue what to do.
The boot loader reads that the O.S. is version 4.19.531.10 but I currently have no O.S. installed since I wiped.
The boot loader is version 1.56 and it's a T-Mobile USA version.
ADB Sideload works but the install is faulty as described.
Thanks.

update your recovery to 2.6.3.3 and flash your rom again.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
you can also use the latest RUU.exe which will restore your phone back to stock and updated to the latest version. (better option imo)
http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_..._10-33e-1718-01l_release_387953_signed_2-exe/

I'm going to try to update the recovery first because when I try to relock the bootloader even after flashing stock recovery it just boots to the bootloader even with a rom installed. (Even if its the erroring stock rom)

Okay well I'm having no luck. Trying to flash the RUU wont work and updating the recovery didn't work. The ruu just hangs at 5% Checking headers. I tried extracting the rom.zip from the ruu but I get the invalid size crap and when trying to open the rom.zip it gives me an invalid error. I don't know what to do here.

Let try this using the version just above your base version:
Download, rename to firmware.zip and place in your adb/fastboot folder: firmware 5.14.531.1
Boot into bootloader/FASTBOOT USB
Type:
Code:
[B][I]fastboot oem lock[/I][/B]
Type:
Code:
[B][I]fastboot oem rebootRUU [/I][/B]
NOTE: You should see a silver HTC logo come up on your phone after executing this command.
NOTE: if this command freezes, just disconnect the USB cable and hold the power and volume down buttons until the device reboots. Then, repeat the steps above again.
Finally:
Code:
[B][I]fastboot flash zip firmware.zip[/I][/B]
Repeat the same command: IMPORTANT
Code:
[B][I]fastboot flash zip firmware.zip[/I][/B]
NOTE: The green bar on the phone may not go to 100% of the bar ... but If you see completed on your computer command window, wait for a few seconds and move on.
Last Step:
Code:
[B][I]fastboot reboot[/I][/B]

Now run this RUU 5.14.531.1
If this is successful you can try to achieve S-OFF with firewater. Of course, you will need to unlock your bootloader and install TWRP 2.6.3.3 recovery. Or, you can retry the RUU in alray's post.

Thanks. This restored the phone to a usable state. I'm going to try firewater now.
