[Q] RUU failed, stuck in RUU Boot, cannot boot recovery

Hi all,
Forgive me if there's a better thread, but I've searched Google and this forum quite deeply but I'm unable to find a method that works to get my phone unbricked.
So I had my (UK, Orange HTC_001) One rooted for a while but I'd like to go back to stock so I can get the latest OTA and troubleshoot some app issues.
No problem I thought, I've done this on other phones. However the RUU failed and now my device constantly boots to the 4 triangles, and everything I try to get it back is failing. I'd really appreciate some help please!
Here's what I've tried:
* fastboot reboot-bootloader ---> launches back to 4 triangles.
* fastboot flash recovery recoverystock.img (recovery downloaded from link in this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2281365) ---> Fails to get further than "sending recovery (9562 KB)". Waited at least 10 mins
* unlocked my bootloader using the token from HTC ---> Showed successful but makes no difference.
* fastboot flash zip Guru.zip (recommended Guru_Reset_M7_2.24.401.1.zip for HTC_001 downloaded from http://www.htc1guru.com/2013/09/gurureset-downloads/) ---> Also sits on sending zip, much like trying to flash recovery.
Here's the output from my getvar all:

Please can I have some advice? I'm getting a little worried at this point!

if you are S-OFF then you can fix it. you can type fastboot oem boot to get phone booted. let me know if you can do that.

Brilliant, a different screen at least! It's on the green HTC logo now, but seems to be hung after a couple of minutes sitting like that...I assume because the stock ROM is corrupted due to having failed when loading on RUU.
Do you think it's safe to flash zip now? If so, do you have a recommendation of which exact file?
Thanks!

hmm. I was expecting an OS to actually boot. If it didnt boot then you should flash RUU zip again (hopefully one that works):
1) fastboot oem rebootRUU
2) fastboot flash zip RUU_ZIP_FILENAME
3) if on phone it says to flash it again, something like: remote 90 please flash again immediately then repeat step 2 again.
4) you should get htc green progress bar during flash on phone and once its done run fastboot reboot. if you get int ruu boot again then use fastboot oem boot to boot to android.

OK after a second go rebooting and attempting to boot OEM it has worked! Thanks my friend.
I think the RUU stock ROM has actually applied as well, which is a nice bonus. Now I'll just see if the OTA update applies. Fingers crossed.
Thanks again buddy.

Actually upon applying update the phone hun on the 4 triangles again.
Is my bootloader borked? If so, how on earth do I fix that!

Can you boot into the bootloader? If so, just boot to that, connect to the PC and then run the 1.28.401.7 RUU. You don't have to piss about with fastboot reboot oemRUU and all that jazz as the RUU deals with it all

Are you S-OFF?
Are you rooted?
Are you unlocked?
We need to modify partition 19 to unset force_ruu flag so you dont get into booloader all the time. u need root at least to do it (maybe unlock or s-off too)

Yeah I have root still, luckily. I think I'm also unlocked (what's the easiest way to test? Usually I just check on bootloader screen) but I'm pretty sure I'm not S-off.
Modify partition 19? New territory for me, do show me the way sir!

So we first need to read your p19 and then hexedit the file.
To read the file (dont use quotes for commands - im using them to show what is the actual command you type):
1) get to adb shell as root - run "adb shell" in terminal while connected and having dev options enabled on the phone. run "su" to obtain root privileges inside adb shell.
2) copy p19 to your sdcard: "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 of=/sdcard/p19.orig"
exit adb shell and copy that file from your simcard using "adb pull /sdcard/p19.orig".
if you can attach that file to your reply i can edit for you, or at least tell you what you need to remove from there. that partition does not hold any sensitive data (like imei or serial number) so it should be ok to upload here... Use hex editor and verify just in case - its been some time since i was there last time.

OP says their mainversion is 1.28.401.7 and the CID is HTC__001 so the 1.28.401.7 RUU will solve the issue once you can get it running properly

No problem, that's done. Hex does indeed contain nothing sensitive that I can see.
I've renamed it .rar so that the filetype is accepted and with a maximum limit large enough to allow the file.
Thanks for your time on this

That's what I'm hoping! The RUU I have is meant to come with an "aroma installer", which I haven't used before...only .zip and RUU .exe files. There are no instructions on how to load it, but the file is a .zip so I just want to make sure it's right to use with the "fastboot flash zip" method?
The contents are as in the screenshot attached, to save downloading the gig file. If you need shots of the subfolders then that's no problem. Can anyone advise if this is correct please? I can't seem to get hold of a stock Nandroid .ZIP so if it looks odd then I would really appreciate a link to a known working one? Most of the sites are either down or the download seems too small or corrupt Thanks in advance!

Ah right! I've not used one of them before, just the official .EXE ones which are all self contained but you'd need to get into the proper fastboot mode first to be able to run it

no. RUU will not reset p19 partition. been there, done that.

I have attached modified p19. It is not rar-ed. You can compare to your original. I removed RUU flag (replace it with 00 in hex - you cant just delete it).
you need to dd it back to partition 19. steps:
1) boot your phone into android, connect to pc in dev mode
2) copy file to your phone: "adb push p19-mod.rar /sdcard/p19.mod" (make sure you are pointing to correct file with correct path - this example assumed file was in same directory that you are running adb commands from)
3) get into adb shell as root: "adb shell" and then inside shell "su"
4) copy modified parition: "dd if=/sdcard/p19.mod of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19"
5) reboot your phone and profit.

lol. Profit.
OK so more progress, which is great. It no longer boots to 4 triangles and will auto-boot into OEM which is great. However I can't power + vol reboot into fastboot...it just does the 3 second countdown then sits on 1 and doesn't actually reboot.
I'd really like to continue to try and get a stock ROM on but to do this I'm going to need bootloader, right? Or do you think there's a method of flashing it that will restore that too?
Thanks again for your time! I'd buy you a beer but, well...internet.

Yeah I can get into the OS now- it boots every time without prompt, thanks to your help. The countdown is when I hold power & vol down to prompt reboot..usually that will show a countdown of 3 seconds then reboot into bootloader. Now it just sticks on1 (until i release the keys, when phone just continues to run as normal) and doesn't reboot. Sorry I can't get a screenshot of this though, coz that'll use the same buttons as I have to press to prompt it.
OK no probs

can you boot to OS and then connect to pc in devmode and reboot using adb: "adb reboot bootloader"
that should get you to bootloader. if it doesnt work than you should downgrade/upgrade your bootloader since booloaders are supposed to be almost last resort for fixing things and not having it working properly is dangerous.

[Q] HTC One Bootloop - Cannot unlock bootloader

Hi All,
My phone suddenly started doing a Bootloop, please notice that I haven't messed up with any custom ROMs, flashing, etc... the only thing that I may guess that happened here is that my phone got a little wet a couple of days ago. The screen won't came up so I dry it using a hairdryer and started working normally. Two days later I got an error that Foursquare app was failing and then I got into the Bootloop that I cannot get rid of....
I'm totally new with flashing phones, rooting, unlocking, etc... but I'm a developer, so, I can learn much easily.
I was reading some forums and solutions but I could not get it work.
Here are the details:
1- The phone is a HTC One M7
2- I'm able to enter to "Recovery mode" screen
3- If i scroll down to "Recovery" or "Factory Reset" the phone try to enter to those modes but after a few seconds of black screen I got an image with a phone with a red warning icon inside. So, I cannot enter to recovery nor do a factory reset
4- If I try to use "adb" commands looks like the bootloop is avoiding me to recognize the device. I tried "adb devices" several times while the phone is rebooting and I see the phone appearing in the list in the middle of the reboot but the status is "offline", then, it changed to "unauthorized" and then it disappears. I also tried "adb wait-for-device" but does not worked and sometimes it said that there is more than one device connected (if i tried adb devices again, appear my device a lot of times but always offline).
I also tried a .bat file to wait for the device and do a shell stop to be able to "freeze" where the phone is accessible, but did not worked neither.
I guess that I don't have debugging enable on my device and that is why i cannot use the adb commands of see the phone connected. I saw that adb will work even with debugging disabled in recovery, but like i mentioned before, i cannot enter to recovery.
5- I was able to enter to "fastboot mode" and my phone connected to USB. If i use fastboot devices, my device appears and looks fine.
6- I tried to unlock the bootloader using the htcdev.com. I followed the steps and looks simple, I don't think i messed something there. I was able to get the phone token, submit, get the Unlock_code.bin, flash the code using fastboot, I got the screen to select yes/no to unlock the bootloader, and at this point everything looks great. I selected Yes, and my phone reboot and still on bootloop (as expected), but If i enter again to recovery mode, the phone is still "*** LOCKED ***". I tried the process (get toke, submit, flash bin, etc) lot of times, but with no result, phone is still appears as Locked.
7- My idea on #6 was to flash the recovery img and try to make the recovery to work, but to be able to flash the recovery i need my bootloader to be unlocked. I tried anyways to flash the recovery but as expected if failed :
C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140321\sdk\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-m7.img
target reported max download size of 1514139648 bytes
sending 'recovery' (9434 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.201s]
writing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 2.172s
8- I saw that there is another method to unlock the bootloader but is using adb, which on #4 i explained i cannot use.
Any idea? thoughts?
Thanks in advance,
Juan.

first USB debugging is only for when you are booted into a rom, it doesn't apply to recovery or bootloader.
Red triangle with exclamation mark is normal, that's the stock recovery.
next, you wont beable to adb devices whilst its bootlooping, that's why that's not working, adb is for in a rom or in recovery, fastboot commands are for when your in the bootloader
So reboot your phone to bootloader mode, this is where you saw the list with options to factory reset and reboot and recovery etc, this is the only thing you need to use for now, and only fastboot commands will work there, once plugged into your computer it should say on the screen "fastboot USB"
post your "fastboot getvar all" without quote marks

first thing is first, remove your serial number and imei from your output, its dangerous to post them.
also get your battery charged up to 50% or more,

Ohh, just removed.
About battery, I cannot turn off my phone (even if trying from fastboot "power off" option), that is why i keep it with low battery so it power off when it's empty.
Do you thing battery level will change my results? If yes, after charging my batter, what i should do?
Thanks,

Hi, after trying everything that I found in the forums, google, etc, without been able to work around it, I took my phone to two places where they fix cell phones but both of them told me "it can't be fixed". So, I lost my hope and currently i'm still keeping the broken phone but already got another one

Hello,
My htc butterfly s 9060 bootlooping with locked bootloader was solved.... I unlocked my bootloader by htcdev method... Its working... U also try this again and again bcoz its only method toh unlock the bootloader..... U also search all correct steps for this method....by searching on htc butterfly s unlocked bootloader threats.. And follow all steps... Bcoz i direct use htcdev site to unlock is not working... After that i used these steps for unlock bootloader...
May be help you

I don't buy the 'can't be done' anymore after my issue for the past 24 hours. Your only way forward is to unlock the phone though. When I get back to the pc (using my now working phone!!) I'll put my notes up for you to work through.

I'm going to write this on the assumption that you followed the correct process to get your unlock token from HTC and you now have that.
BEFORE you do any of this, charge your phone. If you're having trouble powering it off, I found that having it connected via usb to my pc and then just holding the power off button or even the power off and volume down button (while it was on) did the trick. The LED should be lit red even if you don't have a visible indicator of what level the battery is at.
In the meantime:
#1 Go to your desktop on your pc. Set up a new folder and call it HTC.
#2 Into this folder extract everything within the attached zip. Don't put it into a further sub directory, just fill the HTC folder with the zip's contents. These are the ADB dll's and HTC's Fastboot programme. On top, I've included version 2.8.6.2 of TWRP.
#3 Put your Unlock_code.bin from the HTC email you received into this same folder.
-The contents of your folder should look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"

#3 When your phone has charged for at least an hour (make it two to be safe) get it onto the bootloader screen and onto the fastboot menu. You should still have the phone connected to the pc and the line should now say 'fastboot usb'
#4 Open up a cmd terminal. Assuming that you know how this is done, make sure that it is reading c:\<path>\HTC (where path is whatever it is where htc is. On mine it was c:\users\username\desktop\HTC
#5 type the following in: fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin (then wait to see what it says.. if successful then proceed to #6)
#6 type the following in: fastboot reboot -bootloader
Tell us how you get on.

Are you sure that your phone is a 64 bit version also this method requires a unlocked bootloader. This rom is for EE network

Forgot to say that it will say failed but it should still lock your bootloader. Sounds like you may have a 32 bit phone this is why it is stuck on htc screen or you did not flash the recovery.

Thanks for the useful tutorial I flashed my Telstra brand 64 bit phone with this tutorial and it was successful.
the only issue I encountered was when I locked the bootloader in the end than the phone kept rebooring into bootloader. I realised that the Rooted bootloader is causing this So I flashed the supplied boot.img to the phone and voila it worked.
In my opinion we have to unroot the phone before locking the bootloader.
I still can see "software status : modified" and "Relocked" in the bootloader screen. I hope someone someday will find a way to clean this thing as well.

flash boot_signed.img to your phone which is inside the rom.zip. Same problem was with me and it did the trick.

(DESPERATE NOOB) Soft-bricked?

I followed all the instructions for rooting my device but there must have been something I missed. Here is what I did:
Developer Options - USB Debugging and OEM Unlock enabled
Downloaded and installed android-sdk-windows as specified in this tutorial
Followed all steps to reach "fastboot oem unlock" in the cmd prompt
Once that is entered, it prompts me to unlock bootloader on the phone. When I try to proceed with the unlock, the cmd prompt replies with the following:
(bootloader) Device state transition will erase userdata.
(bootloader) Are you sure you want to continue this transition?
(bootloader)
(bootloader) Press POWER key to continue.
(bootloader) Press VOL UP or VOL DOWN key to cancel state transition.
(bootloader) State transition confirmed!
(bootloader) Please select 'YES' on screen if you want to continue...
(bootloader) Unlocking bootloader...
(bootloader) Not supported command in current status!
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 17.525s​
When I try to reboot the device, it displays "your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted." at which point it either turns off on its own or immediately after touching a button.
Please let me know what other information you need to help. Thank you!!

That's because you unlocked the m-bootloader. Your device is normal, but Google doesn't want us to unlock/root. Ignore it and flash a rom. Start here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3059493

Thanks! I'm able to flash a rom by putting the phone in bootloader and using cmd prompt, correct? Am I to extract the rom files in my "android-sdk-windows" folder?

Here is info you need,

Stuck in fastboot - No running ROM, recovery , ADB

Dear Community,
I reached a state with my mobile phone where I really do not know anymore how to proceed to get back to any running ROM on my HTC Mini 2. :angel:
I read the other threads on this topic, but they did not help my situation.
Maybe someone see's what I am missing, or what I can do about it. In the end, I would like to go back to a CM 11 / CM 13 ROM, but as I understood, I should first go back to stock to enable S-off, using a nandroid recovery backup. Then flash a new custom rom. However I am stuck without any recovery running properly. Only the hboot/fastboot menu is working, and the phone will always boot there again.
Some more info:
- ADB does not work currently. I tried Win and OSX , so I believe its the phone rejecting it.
- With stock recovery, reading in the 0P8BIMG.zip RUU file containing a 2.19.401.2 or 2.18.401.3 system fails.
- Flashing recovery TWRP 2.8.5.0 / 2.8.1.0 works, but the phone will not start it.

Thanks a lot for any feedback!

you dont need S-OFF to install ROM just Bootloader unlocked.
Just because you can flash the recovery doesn't mean its the correct one, try the one in here
You need HTC drivers for ADB to work. (see link above)
After flashing recovery you can flash the rom using your preferred method.

I tried unlocking again already, but I must admit that you got me with the last one. I'm using other cables.....(there are many...how do I recognize the right one ? )
Will report back with the proper one, but I seriously believe that mine are fine.
Besides this, what would be your next guess ?

please be patience as every case its different and it takes trial and error until we figure out.
1-type command fastboot erase cache
2- flash stock recovery
3-relock oem. fastboot oem lock
in HBOOT enter recovery and erase phone. (NOTE: to enter recovery you need to press power+vol- after the red triangular)
4- get new token to unlock BOOTLOADER
5 -flash TWRP
all this because you need stock recovery to properly unlock bootloader.

Thanks for your help, first of all I can not unlock with Htcdev my bootloader. It is still locked. When I try to unlock and type unlock_code.bin, it asks me yes or no and I choose yes, it reboots and stucks on the logo screen again. I reboot again with volume down + power and see it is still "locked" .
When I try to flash stock recovery I type the flash recovery code and I get this message "writing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)".. So Don't know what to do. I can not unlock, I can not flash recovery and I can not flash any stock rom because my main is : 2.19.401.2. So if I want to flash 2.18.401.3 RUU it says me your os is older. I am desperate I hope you can help dude. Thanks

ok so now you saying its LOCKED?
can yo send a hboot pic?
before trying next step..do you have an sdcard inserted in phone? if so remove and restart phone(corrupted sdcard will freeze phone logo)
if still stuck in logo try next step, if LOCKED
download RUU
- RENAME THE RUU FILE TO 0P8BIMG.zip AND PLACE IN THE ROOT OF SD CARD
- SWITCH OFF DEVICE
- HOLD VOL DOWN AND POWER KEY
- SOON AS DEVICE ENTER BOOT LOADERS IT WILL START READING THE PLACED FILE AND FLASHING SHOULD START SOON.

Yes it is LOCKED. I add HBOOT pic as atached, I tried to flash RUU but it says me "your main version is older " so i can not flash 2.18.401.3 RUU. I found this one (2.19.401.2_boot_system_2015-09-21--20-48-04_KOT49H.zip )and tried to flash but it didn't work (on boot menu it says no image found)

thx for the picture.
you hboot shows that nothing has been done to the phone. so it was NEVER unlocked as stated in original post.
At this point im gonna suggest get your self an original usb cable because the one you using its no good. its giving you wrong info and it seems some get to the phone but corrupted and thats why unlock fails.
im trying to create a new updated RUU but might take some time.
please get OTA cable and try to unlock

You are right, it is never unlocked as I told you before. My cable is original itselfs cable. My phone is never unlocked, never rooted and never made s-off. So what do you suggest now ?

Start over from scratch. get new token, this time choose "all other devices" in Dev HTC.
after clicking "yes" Wait at least 10 minutes before stress out.

I did exactly what you did. I got new token and choose "all supported other devices" in HTCdev. I took pictures of every step. It didn't work again after 3rd picture If I press volume up + power, it says "Device CW install : can't mount /data" and goes black screen and charging. If i don't press anything it goes black screen again and then chargin again as you can see on the 5th picture. So I can not unlock
By the way, If I choose recovery or factory reset on bootloader menu, I get the same result. (2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th pictures).

1- in hboot enter recovery
when red warning shows, press power+vol up to enter recovery.
wipe data and reboot.
if recovery fails flash it
2-put this file in sdcard and update.

in hboot when I try to enter recovery, red warning comes and pressing power+vol up, it says "device cw install:cant mount/data" and then black screen.
I tried second step and added your file into sdcard and update. it says press power button. After that white htc screen is coming. It is waiting since 15 minutes but still nothing and still white screen [emoji21]

Sorry but it seems I'm unable to help you.
The picture shows green letters behind the red ones. It means the flashing fail, maybe it rejected the recovery or because its locked.
Either way your problem is, your system and recovery are corrupted.
My advice is contact HTC and send for repair. They usually don't charge you.

Ok dude thanks a lot. I'll contact HTC, i hope they can help ?
