[Q] Problems with custom rom HTC one

I know there are a million posts about this, but I have been through them all trying to follow the guidance because the problems seemed to be the same as others have faced, but I feel differently now....
I unlocked my HTC one, following the htc dev site.
I installed TWRP (I cannot for the life of me get CWM to load into reovery, it only reboots the phone...)
loaded the roms/Super SU onto the SD card.
I know my phone is rooted (or i should assume?) because SuperSU is requiring me to grant access to apps and such.
I flash the custom ROM to the phone, install the package following Revolutions steps. Complete installation, return to fastboot menu. Flash boot.img, clear cache and reboot phone....Phone goes to the HTC Quietly Brilliant screen, with the development message at the bottom and continues to reboot over and over and over from there.
What did I do wrong?
I know pretty much have a phone that wont work because even after restoring it, it is ina boot loop after it fully boots up and nothing is loading correctly. Is there any way to start this from scratch?
Notes:
I tried doing an ADB sideload of Revolution HD.
I do a factory wipe before i load any rom....
Edit:
I have tried multiple ROMS...all the same effect....
I also get the message after installing the ROM from TWRP that "your device is not rooted, swipe to install superSU" so sometimes i swipe it, sometimes i dont...either way same result.
Update #2:
I flashed a ROM called 42ONE....it ended up successfully booting past the HTC screen and is currently updating the android system...However, it will operate for about 2 minutes then the phone reboots like it was before when i tried to restore....what the heck?!?

There is no need to flash the boot.img in fastboot. Just flash the rom from twrp.

Download the rom again (might be a bad download), transfer to your sdcard, do a full wipe, and flash again. Something you flashed has created a conflict.
Edit: That's a Sprint ROM. Do you have a Sprint phone? If you've been flashing GSM roms, that's your problem there.

Hi,
Maybe you'll have a better help here: Sprint HTC One ?

problem resolved so far. REflashed stock rom, relocked device. its working for now.

Help! Frozen 4.3 install

So, I rooted my developer edition M7 and then reflashed the stock recovery so that I could install the OTA 4.3 update. Everything went fine until the update started installing. Now it's been installing for the past hour with no progress in the progress bar.
Can anyone please help me? does it usually take an hour? Is there a way to stop the installation without bricking it?
Any advice is desperately needed!

Do you have the stock rom and stock kernel (boot.img)?
And your bootloader is relocked/locked?

Yes, i believe so. In my efforts to get rid of cwm recovery, I used the stock nandroid for the developer edition from this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2248997&page=5 though it didn't get rid of the cwm recovery so I flashed the stock recovery from ARHD.
Can I reboot the phone by holding down the power button and start over?

Also, my bootloader is currently unlocked.

Well, I broke down and did a hard reset of the phone. It froze once more during the installation process, but ultimately concluded. However, it did not update to 4.3, but instead stayed with 4.1.2. I guess I'm just grateful that the phone is still working.
Anyway, i'll just have to research more.

@ThickG
You have to flash the stock recovery of 1.29.1540.3 version for get the ota and install it
So, i will search it for you!

[Q] HTC One wont boot after nandriod recovery

I've had my HTC one for a little over half a year and I have been running cynogenmod 10.1 on it with no problems until I decided to update it to 10.2.1. when i had finished doing that I started having problems with it running and the just randomly rebooting frequently so I went back into my recovery (twrp 2.5.0.0) and went to recover into my nandriod backup. After I wiped the phone and used the backup i restarted it and now my phone just sits on the HTC One loading screen.
I can still enter into the recovery and bootloader (1.44 s-on), adb does find it in its device list when its connected to the computer. also when I go to restart the recovery I get a message saying "your device appears to not be rooted install supersu now? This will root your device". It doesn't do anything when i do say install or not to install it and just restarts the device. I did have it rooted before so I'm not sure if the recovering of the old phones image removed the root?
Not quite sure what I may have done wrong as I'm still fairly new to rooting and all but I'm unsure as to where to go from here. I've been digging through threads on the HTC one forum and I feel like I may be over thinking what i need to do. I couldn't really find a direct answer and i don't want to accidentally make it worse.
so here i am any help would be appreciated.

Maybe. Did you backed-up every partition (boot, system and data)?
You could try to restore you back-up with the latest twrp, it might also help to clear cache.

Its most likely that the old recovery is the issue. 2.7.0.0 has been released and why not CM11, which is in its snapshot stage?? And, your HBOOT and firmware are also extremely outdated. 1.44 was the HBOOT at launch. 1.56 is the latest

It took awhile but everything is working again. I guess my backup was corrupt or something because it still didnt work after i flashed the recovery to a newer version.

[Q] Nothing present after custom ROM install

I have spent a day and a half trying to fix all of my issues before I finally turned here but I am at my wits end.
This all started with my attempt to flash Viper to my HTC one. I installed clockwork touch loaded Viper to the drive and went to install. During the install process something happened and my install failed. When I rebooted the phone it returned to the fasboot screen and there was no recovery present. I had heard that sometimes TWRP works better for installing some ROMs so I decided to switch courses and try that. Before installing I went and formatted cache, data, ect. When I tried to install Viper this time it appeared to be a successful install. However, I was once again I was returned to the fastboot screen and no recovery was present. I tried this a few more times with either clockwork or TWRP using sideload with no luck. I also trried using fastboot to flash a sprint stock recovery boot and image. When the phone rebooted it showed the white HTC Screen but nothing happened for a half hour so I restarted the phone again only to be dropped into the fastboot. I also tried locking and unlocking the boot loader and tried a Sprint HTC one RUU with no success.
So at this moment this is where I stand:
I am on the fastboot screen with no recovery.
HBOOT 1.56.0000
S-ON
Any help you can provide would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks for your time.

So I have my phone up an running on a stock RUU but I seem to have the same issues with and error when installing Viper. Any ideas as to what the issue could be?

... now that its up and running, i recommend you get s-off 1st. it eases many things. then flash twrp 2.7.0.4 recovery and try to flash viper :victory: ...

I was in this situation myself. If you can adb twrp recovery onto your phone. Dont try to flash viper with cwm it will mess stuff up. After you have a recovery loaded flash the viper rom. If it boots up be sure to check about phone section in the settings and see if there is a baseband version present. If not just flash the latest firmware and you should be good to go. This was what i had to do.

Same here, about a month ago. They really need to just remove that option to flash CWM. I managed to get a recovery installed, but now it seems like half the ROMs I try to flash won't boot. I don't even know what Rom I am using, because it has disappeared from XDA. It's a 4.4.2 Sense 5.5 ROM, and it is odexed and came with Xposed Installer. It's the only ROM that seems to work anymore, so I have to wonder if my firmware got messed up. I'm S-On, with no way to S-off for the foreseeable future until I can fix my laptop. Since my laptop is unavailable, I'm a bit hesitant to mess with the phone much more, since I can't fix it again without the computer.

I've read a number of these threads, and many have Viper in common. Viper by itself is an amazing ROM. Maybe too amazing... Incredible amount of customization. I have to remind myself occasionally that as much as I flash ROMs and lurk around here that I am not a dev.
I would do my best to achieve S-OFF if you have any plans for custom ROMs. It's always useful. I would also suggest trying one of the Sense 6 ROMs. They are all amazing.

S-OFF is necessary for some ROMs to work, although I'm not sure about Viper. Use firewater.

I am very sorry I know this is a slow response. So I tried to first root my phone so I could use firewater but I ran into issues. First, I tried to place supersu on the internal hard drive via windows but when I rebooted into recovery I was not able to find any of the folders I had access to. So i tried using side load but got errors that I could not mount cache and could not mount system. Do you have any suggestions on how to proceed?

[Q] need help hope i didnt kill my m7 :(

Last night I was flashing to a new rom.
The phone has had beanstalk 4.4+ on it for quite some time and have never had any issues really.
I was going to give viper 6.1 a shot so I downloaded the zip and put it on my sd card
I rebooted the phone into recovery as I do every time I load a rom and selected wipe to install nee rom option in twrp.
I chose the zip and aroma fired up and installed the new rom and gave me a successful install message and asked to reboot the phone which I did.
Now when I boot the phone it goes straight to the bootloader/fastboot screen and will not perform any functions other than reboot, which it does and goes straight to the bootloader.
pleaseeee help I hope I didn't kill it somehow. It seemed everything was going fine...
Thanks in advance
Jay

... TWRP is the best recovery to flash Viper. If you didnt use that, flash the right TWRP for your variant in fastboot (Sprint in your case and no other), boot into recovery, wipe everything in recovery, run Viper installer, choose wipe all (except SD) and then see if it wakes from the sleep :laugh: ...

there is no need to put a rom as long as you are satisfied with stock rom.... how did you run the ruu .exe file or by fastboot mode???

Got it! Something must have failed. I ran the .exe ruu again and we are up and running! Thanks everyone
