[Q] No android, no recovery, only bootloader... :(

Dear XDA,
I wanted to update my HTC One to Revolution HD. But there where some requirements before i could install that. Like updating the firmware and installing TWRP recovery. I needed to RELOCK my phone in order to update my firmware. So i did that using a tutorial. After that i only had to push the RUU and i would be back @ stock. And then i could flash Revolution HD to get 4.4!
But!... it went horribly wrong. As of right now, i can only enter fastboot. I cannot enter recovery, and there is no Android installed, so basically i'm screwed.
I do have some flashing experience and I'm not a complete newb, but this is out of my league. Perhaps there are some nice persons here that could help me out. I will try to summarise my phone settings:
My current settings in Fastboot:
M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.44.0000
RADIO-4A.14.3250.13
OpenDSP-v26.120.274.0202
eMMC-boot
May 3 2013,17:22:59:-1
CID: HTC_E11
MID: PN0710000
I have a nandroidback, but i can't get into recovery. I tried using ADB but my device is not recognised.... I get the feeling that S-ON needs to change to S-OFF. But if i use a toolkit (from Squabbi) i can't get my device S-OFF (device not recognised..).
As of right now, I'm sitting with my hands in my hair thinking i bricked my phone.
If someone could help me, you would save my day.

Your phone is basically still stock andriod version 4.1.2
(this is good you can s-off pretty easy)
what RUU were you going to flash ?
this is the version of recovery you need
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7ul
download it and put it in your fastboot folder
then to flash it:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.4-m7ul.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
now you can enter recovery correct ?

it's no problem
you should try and get s-off next

ARHD is great .. I also use ViperOne
just use the sideload feature in twrp being your phone is wiped
Quote:
Set the device into ADB sideload mode. In TWRP you do this by going to Advanced then ADB Sideload.
From the command line, type adb sideload name_of_rom.zip
or
adb push Rom.zip /data/media/0/

I will get s-off through the HTC One All in one toolkit. But on the ARHD topic, this was posted aswell:
You need:
HTC One unlocked with htcdev.com (S-ON) or S-OFF
Custom recovery
Firmware package from here (recommended but not needed for now)
Read this flashing guide - [GUIDE] Complete Flashing Guide | Rooting | Going Back To Stock
So i tried to get the latest firmware, and that's where the problems started. But shouldn't it be better to have the latest firmware? I mean it stands there for a reason, right? Or am I wrong?
Anyway, i will try ARHD for now, it looks nice
Thanks again!

[Q] Help Emergency HTC one issues!!!!

Hello,
Okay so I had an HTC one that was stuck on the boot screen. Well I had a feeling it was rooted but was not sure because clorkworkmod always said boot with "root access" which I ignored. So first off I found something called guru reset 2.24.401.8 which was my version of my phone. So I used adb side load to move to my device then installed it. It worked fine and I was excited however it booted to a black screen with only the battery status, reception meter, and time bar. When I tried using recovery again the phone would show a green sign and then a red exclamation mark sign. I tried for so long going into recovery, but to no avail. I used fast boot to flash recovery and erase cache but did not work. I am terribly stuck and need help.
MIDN0710000
Version:2.24.401.8
Please help a brother in need.
Thank you
Sorry for any mistake wrote this really late.

When you flashed the Guru Reset you must have selected "stock recovery" because that is the black screen with green or red triangle. Follow these steps:
Get TWRP 2.6.3.3 from: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
(make sure MD5 is correct, that site does not play nice with download managers)
in bootloader/FASTBOOT USB:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Thanks
I have been able to do it and thank you, but i am having issue with adb my fastboot work and is able to find my devices but adb does not.

ADB works in OS/Android with USB Debugging enabled in Developer Options and in Recovery Mode. It will not work if the phone is in bootloader/FASTBOOT USB.

About to give up
Okay you have been great help, and i need major help i have tried every thing, my phone doesn't boot up properly and just has a black screen, i have tried using guru reset 2.24.401.8 to reset and it doesnt work, i tried with an unlocked bootloader, but with S-On and i read an article saying guru reset should work regardless if it is s-on or s-off. im not sure though. I am not stuck because my phone Hboot is 1.54 and i have tried using rumrunner but doesnt work because my adb only work in recovery. I would like to S-off my phone to be able to install the guru reset. rom. I have tried using RUU's but cant find my radio version. is there any possible way to S-off my phone without an OS to install unto. Or is there any way to re-install my OS i am running out of ideas. Thank you very much!!

There is no way to s-off without a Rom on the phone.
You can push a Rom to the phone using adb in recovery. Which recovery are you using. You should use TWRP 2.6.3.3 to avoid any problems installing the Guru Reset Rom.
Put the Rom in your adb/fastboot folder and rename it to rom.zip. Connect adb in recovery and in the command window type.
Code:
adb push rom.zip /sdcard
The command window will appear unresponsive until the push completes several minutes. When it's done install the Rom with twrp recovery.

Here is the only RUU I could find that is a higher version than yours. There have been people who have bricked their phone by jumping version so I have provide the firmware for the version from 2.24.401.8 to RUU 4.19.401.9.
Firmware 3.62.401.1
Firmware 4.19.401.8
RUU 4.19.401.9
To flash the firmware, place the firmware in your adb/fastboot folder, open a command window in your adb/fastboot folder:
Code:
[B][I]adb reboot bootloader[/I][/B]
After that, type:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
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 [COLOR="Purple"]name_of_firmware.zip[/COLOR][/I][/B]
Repeat the same command: IMPORTANT
Code:
[B][I]fastboot flash zip [COLOR="Purple"]name_of_firmware.zip[/COLOR][/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-bootloader[/I][/B]

After the last firmware reboots, then run the RUU.

Follow @majmoz instructions, but for the record the RUU should work fine after flashing 3.62.401.1 firmware. As the RUU will contain the full firmware up to 4.19.401.9. So no risk of firmware mismatch.

Flash the 3.62.401.1 firmware as per majmoz instructions. Then you can use the RUU to update your phone to kit Kat.
You have to be unlocked to flash Custom software. But the RUU and Firmware are signed Stock files. Because your s-on you must be relocked to flash them

Your command to rebootRUU is incorrect it is case sensitive. You also appear to have an extra "u" in there
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
After this command your phone will reboot to a screen with a silver HTC logo. This is RUU mode

Yes because your phone is not in ruu mode. You cannot flash the firmware in the bootloader.

[Q] hboot 1.44.00 and can't move forward nor backwards

Hi everyone
Been on Cyanogenmod 11-20140424-NIGHTLY-M7 for far too long and wanted to either upgrade Cyanogenmod or, better yet, move to Viper. I'm somewhat skilled with Windows and Linux, but I can't seem getting things to work.
What I've got:
HTC One M7 (unbranded, bought in Switzerland)
Unlocked S-ON
hboot: 1.44.0000
M7-UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
RADIO-4A.14.3250.13
OpenDSP-v26-120-274-0202
CID: HTC_102
It's rooted and got CWM ROM-Manager installed
Notebook with Windows 8.1, USB 3.0 all around
What I've tried so far:
Getting S-OFF
- Did not work. revone throws an ERROR=1 at me when I try to ./revone -P. I've tried like a hundred times, with su and all.
Then I tried to relock and get an RUU on it:
- Relocking did not work. Neither with revone (./revone -l or -r is successful on the CLI, but does nothing, i.e. still says *** UNLOCKED *** in the bootloader), nor with fastboot...
- ... as fastboot does not work, either. Tried different drivers and all, but fastboot always says < waiting for device >. So fastboot oem lock achieved nothing, either.
Then I just tried to install an RUU to get to JB and hboot 1.55 to then continue with rumrunner. This got stuck at some boot-image showing the HTC logo and the .exe cancelled.
Is USB3.0 breaking my neck here or do I have any other options to get to ViperOne?
Thanks in advance...

From what i've read in here many times, hboot 1.44 isn't compatiable with windows 8. 1. You need to use a windows 7 machine.

Windows 8 and hboot 1.44 are not compatible. You should use Windows 7 or better still Linux (preferably ubuntu 32bit)

OK, got my hands on a Linux notebook and managed the relock the bootloader. This led to only being able to boot into Bootloader, Recovery and ROM did always boot into Bootloader.
Then I tried to get a RUU with JB4.3 on the device to be able to run rumrunner on hboot 1.55.
#sudo fastboot flash zip RUU.zip
sending 'zip' (1065710 KB)...
OKAY [ 59.411s}
writing 'zip' ...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 171.238s
Now I unlocked the bootloader again to at least be able to boot into CYM again.
Meh, I'm kinda lost here. I feel confused about RUUs, CIDs, Nandroid Backups and where to go from here.
Any ideas?

This didn't work. While in TWRP, adb was not able to connect. Funnily enough, flashing TWRP*allowed me to boot into CYM again. Activated USB*Debugging and allowed the Host to connect, but still no luck in TWRP.
But since I*had access again I* just copied the Guru image over USB*to the Sdcard, booted back into TWRP*and installed the ROM*manually.

Another adventure... In the official instructions it says unlocked OR*rooted, so I*did not bother with rooting.
rumrunner then failed and damaged Recovery leading to not being able to boot into TWRP*and thus being unable to install SuperSu zip.
Had to reflash recovery, install SuperSu and run rumrunner again... Which again failed (becuase the screen was off, I did not see that ADB*Shell requested root).
After a couple of tries now it worked ^_^
Thanks a lot for your explanations.
Now I just have to find out how to get to Firmware 5.0.2 to install the latest ViperOne.
Edit:*When I try to run the OTA*update to 4.19.401.11 it just boots into Recovery

You need stock rom and recovery to install OTA updates. You can just flash the rom again with stock recovery to take further OTAs.
But as your now s-off you can just flash the firmware manually. You don't need to re lock the bootloader again. That's only for s-on users.
You can download the rest of the firmware updates here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=32777
You must flash at least one zip for each firmware version. I.e if your on 3.xx.401.x then you have to flash
4.xx.401.x
5.xx.401.x
6.xx.401.x
7.xx.401.x
Then you can flash twrp and install a lollipop rom. You should have the rom on the internal storage before you start as the device won't boot after flashing the firmware as it will replace the stock boot.img. So you will need to flash a rom before it will boot. :good:
Commands for flashing the firmware zip as follows.
Code:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip "name-of-firmware".zip
fastboot flash zip "name-of-firmware".zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Flash TWRP, Install Rom, Done :good:

See my edited post above. You can't just flash the latest firmware. It might work but there's a risk of bricking your phone if you skip firmware versions

Ahh yes. Well, another interesting one going through the firmware updates. Going from 5.xx to 6.xx nearly killed my phone. Screen went black no matter how long I*pressed the power button and connecting through USB*mounted some strange folders on the device.
Luckily found Dexter's thread and his unbricking script solved the problem:

Stuck in boot loop.

I have tried to flash the ROM on my M7 with no luck. Just getting a boot. I have used a mates computer and didn't noticed his copy of Hasoons was for the M8 when I changed from TWRP to ClockWorkMod and now I can't get into recovery mode. That's a new problem. The old one is not being able to successfully flash the ROM.
***TAMPERED***
***UNLOCKED***
M7 UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.61.000

adb devises doesn't show up anything anymore but the unit is recognized by Windows.
Thanks in advance. Any help or ideas would be much appreciated.

Out of Boot Loop
OK, I'm out of the boot loop now and just struggling to image the ROM, if nothing I install will not work and I manage to re-install the RUU, is that going to be all I can install?

Sorry I didn't relise you asked the other questions, I have been using Hasoon2000 v3.1 and tried both CWM and TWRP. Also multiple ROMS including the reccomended stock one for the preivious carrier for HTCdev and a couple of the latest versions of kitkat and lollipop from this site.

I would suggest you to avoid using toolkits and instead work directly from a command window using the latest android sdk tools (fastboot and adb). Files that comes with these toolkits, like Hasoon 2000, are outdated.
E.g:
Hasoon 2000 v 3.1
Outdated SU binaries (1.45). Latest is 2.46 and is mandatory for lollipop roms.
Outdated TWRP recovery (2.6.0.1) - Latest twrp recovery for the M7 is 2.8.7.0, all roms requires at least 2.6.3.3, some other like Cyanogenmod requires at lest 2.7.1.1
Outdated CWM recovery (6.0.3.4) - latest cwm for M7 is 6.0.4.8
So setup your android sdk tool folder, download your custom recovery directly from TWRP or CWM website (twrp is preferred for the M7), flash the recovery using fastboot, copy the om to your phone and flash it in recovery.

You need to be on the stock rom to sim unlock the phone so better to relock the bootloader, flash the ruu, unlock the sim using a sim unlock code, unlock the bootloader again and flash the rom you want to use.

So I need to use the stock, unlock the sim and then go back and use whatever ROM. That sounds good. Do you know where I could find the command I'm going to need and any examples. So far I only know how to use the all in one tools to move files.

htc_fastboot reboot
Then boot the phone and inter your sim unlock code when prompted to after that the sim unlock will be permanent whatever rom you flash.
unlock the bootloader again (instructions at htcdev.com/bootloader):
Code:
fastboot oem get_identifier_token
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
then flash the custom recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then copy your rom to your phone storage and install it with your recovery.
Don't forget all files you want to flash (RUU, Recovery, Unlock_code) must be saved in the same folder you have adb, fastboot and htc_fastboot installed on your computer.

Are you using the fastboot version linked in the same thread from where you have downloaded the ruu? You must use that version of fastboot, the normal one that comes with the sdk tools can't handle big file like this ruu.

keep both fastboot version, save that one in the same folder as the original fastboot but name it htc_fastboot.exe so you have both fastboot version. When needed, type "htc_fastboot your_command" instead of "fastboot your_command" like when flashing the ruu:
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
htc_fastboot flash zip ruu_file_name.zip
fastboot reboot

All done, I got the phone unlocked for a couple of pounds on Ebay, and managed to install the RUU you suggested. Managed to update to a custom ROM today and everything is good. I did try to re-lock the bootloader and ran into another loop, so left it open for now with tampered and security warning for now. Apart from that it's all working fine. Thanks again for your help Alray.

Please post the output of "fastboot getvar all" (do not post the imei number)
If the phone is still on hboot 1.44, the firmware might be to old to run newer roms. Also what version of twrp is installed on the phone?

okay

VODAP304 is firmware base x.xx.161.x. There is a recent ruu for this version (7.18.161.51). In order to flash this ruu, you'll probably have to update the firmware first (7.18.161.2 firmware).
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot oem rebootRUU
htc_fastboot_flash zip PN07IMG_M7_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_Vodafone_UK_7.18.161.51_Radio_4T.35.3218.16_10.33Q.1718.01L_release_459048_signed.zip
fastboot reboot
If your bootloader is unlocked you will need to relock it before doing the above commands. You can find htc_fastboot.exe here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24341993505161791
