Hello,
Today charged my phone for few minutes and when I looked at it, it was stuck on logo,
I cant access recovery (gets back to normal bootloader) same for factory
cant unlock boot loader to flash firmware I get >>Check 'Allow OEM Unlock' in Developer Options.
which I cant because it wont boot up.
What are my possibilities?

From bootloader, enter the following fastboot command:
fastboot format cache
See if that helps, also you may try:
fastboot format userdata
This may or may not work but worth a shot.

I cant because the bootloader is locked and I cant unlock it because it wasnt enabled in the developers menu
This is not good ... I had a similar situation and ended up having a replacement sent. Not sure if anyone has come up with a fix yet (I don't believe anyone has), but at the time there was nothing that could be done.
Sounds like you have a clear warranty case... There's nothing you can do except send it back and get a new one.
Gues thats what ill do
Thanks

Hi, guys, My HTC one just reboot normally after I chose the recovery. I am using the recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.0-m7.img, and after I flashed the recovery, I did erase cache. It is still not working. I give the getvar all information as a attachment. Please help me.

In another thread @xda I read that sometimes booting recovery did not work when the phone is connected to usb. download the recovery file again, erase cache, flash recovery, erase cache, disconnect from usb und try - good luck!
Go into Settings then power. Uncheck Fastboot. May help you.
Definitely uncheck Fast Boot, and try flashing TWRP if it still doesn't boot, to check if you can get any working recovery.
As far as I know TWRP is still not working on HTC One. And the fast boot option in Settings is not related to android fastboot. The fast boot option there is hibernate mode of HTC One which is not really related to android fastboot .

I know the difference in adb fastboot and power/fastboot.
I recommended disabling it as I had the same issue. I couldn't get into clockwork until I turned the power fastboot off.

I hit reset... wiped phone... all files GONE... Now what do i do. I cant mount to put recovery on.... I cant do anyting with this phoen right now... anyone had this happen...

If you can boot to TWRP recovery, then you can ADB push a ROM to recovery and boot it.

No, if you can boot to TWRP, as @rootSU said, you can move a ROM to internal and get up and running. Then you can go about unlocking.

Power off the device. Once completely shut down, hold power and volume down until bootloader screen appears. Then use the volume keys to select recovery. Then push power to select.
from your original post, it says your not running twrp anymore. have you tried just letting the phone try to boot up? have you tried reflashing twrp to your phone via fastboot. id try, and if its successful, id push a rom to my phone then. if not, try flashing a factory img.

flashing twrp..
fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img
and flashing a factory img is done while the phone is in its bootloader. there are instruction how here on xda. but to be honest, i dont know if that will work. where did you buy your n6 from btw?
Yesterday, some bad things happened when I went to switch ROMs. Eventually, I ended up erasing my internal storage and re-locking the bootloader. I am aware that mistakes were made and I take full responsibility for my foolish actions.
So right now the problem is that I can't unlock the bootloader with the fastboot command because the "Allow OEM unlocking" box is not checked. The main problem here is that I can't simply boot into the OS and check this. I have no OS because I wiped my internal storage, including all my backups (Yes, I am an idiot.).
The phone is currently stuck on the bootloader screen. Rebooting into recovery just makes the Google splash screen flicker and it goes back to the bootloader immediately. I've seen similar threads but I haven't seen anything that mirrors my issue.
Is the phone bricked until we find a way to bypass the "Allow OEM unlocking" checkbox?
Thanks,

I don't believe that command works with a locked bootloader. It had TWRP. Rebooting into recovery doesn't work at all. It just flickers the Google screen then goes back to bootloader menu.
The only thing that the phone does now is show the bootloader screen.
Simply powering on the phone brings it to the bootloader menu. I don't even have to hold power + vol up/down.
Yep it does that if you wipe the OS. There's nothing you can do at the moment.

Unfortunately so.
Hi, I wanted to flash the 5.1 update to my new Nexus 6.
I went all over the basic steps.
After I unlocked the bootloader I tried to flash the image with the flash-all command.
It failed, so I remembered maybe I forgot to click on USB debugging? (This confuses me because I think I shouldn't be able to unlock bootloader without this).
When I wanted to start android I locked it first, so I would unlock it afterwards and erase everything to start as new.
Whan I locked it, I could not unlock it again. I can't access Android, neither do anything else like factory reset nor Recovery Mode. I return to the bootloader as soon as I press anything.
There are red words at the top: AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure). Does this means anything?
Is there any way to force unlocking the bootloader? When I try it, the phone tells me to go to Developer Options but I can't access Android.
Please HELP! Is there any way to flash a rom or android again in locked state? Recovery?
Thanks for reading this and thinking about a solution! I really hope I won't be stuck forever in bootloader.
Uh oh... Were you trying to downgrade back to LRX22C from LMY47D so that you could upgrade to LMY47M, by any chance?
If so you might be fooked.
Actually no. I was trying to upgrade from 5.01 to 5.1. I'm really scared of having my Nexus 6 bricked. I can't do anything to unlock the bootloader. Maybe I could sideload a recovery? But do I need to be unlocked?

I already tried this solution, I think mine is a little different. At the end of the post it says to enter fastboot and restore with a factory image. I can't because I am not unlocked. In order to unlock my device I have to go to Developer Settings (it is the message when I use the OEM unlock command). but I can't access to Android.

The solution that was posted should work, but you need to use RSD Lite in order to flash the factory image, not fastboot.
Read it over nice and slow again, because you are in panic mode right now, so take your time and you will get it back up and running with no problems.

Thanks! I've been reading a lot from this thread but I get something unusual as the other people are experiencing. When I try to flash partition gpt.bin I get (bootloader) Unlock before flashin.
It is kind of contradictory as this fix supposedly fixes flashing without unlocking. I don't know if it is a problem of drivers. My PC sees my N6 as Google Nexus Bootlader Interface. In the thread, the PC sees the device as "Bulk" or "Qualcomm ....... etc etc".
My panic mode isn't turning off. I may be missing something.

I agree because op is somehow confused.....fastboot has nothing to do with develope settings USB enabled
Yes it does. He flashed the factory images, then relocked (which defaults to disabled oem unlocking). But something failed (guessing possibly userdata failed). I would recommend fastboot formats userdata to perform a factory reset from the boot loader to see if you can get android to boot.

Hi folks, saw the bootloop thread that is ongoing, but have a different issue and dont want to hjack.
I was unlocked and rooted, but then started having some constant cell signal issues.
I loaded of the toolkit, tried flashing back to stock (flash stock / unroot) > then OEM lock.
Now I cant get past the boot animation.
Can get to bootloader, fastboot works, device is LOCKED, just cant boot into the system. have left it for about 30 minutes.
I cant flash any images because I am locked, but cant unlock because I cant get into the system.
any thoughts here?
