I'm guessing you have HTC drivers installed.
Connect USB to windows Boot into Recovery, selecr Advanced, choose Sideload, then swipe to start sideload
then with adb use command 'adb devices'
Does your phone up? it'll have a name beginning with sideload
If it doesn't, possible driver issue. What OS are you using?

The phone bootlooped? Strange. TWRP usually runs the script straight after sideload. The zip is on sdcard/0/sideload.zip
What happens when you try to install the sideload.zip?

in in twrp if i go to install i see only empy sdcard!!! but the adb sideload command was completed at 100 %...no errors, nothing..(yesterday i had cwm 5 and always all folder empy and unable to mount all !!!!)

Flash latest CWM recovery the same way you flash Twrp.twrp is unsecure coz you deleted all your system data in twrp recovery.after flash,cwm shoud work,and adb too.then put superuser.zip on internal storage,install thru cwm to gain root.flash arhd 52.0 rom to get it boot.

I think you have a corrupted partition. Try this: http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/fix-data-htc-one.html
Just something I found with a quick search but, I hope that will fix your problem, if not you should google around for more alternative methods to repairing a corrupted data partition
How Do I Recognise The Problem?
When trying to mount the DATA partition from inside the custom recovery using the mount /data command you will most likely see this output: mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p37 on /data failed: Invalid argument
To be 100% sure you can check filesystem structure with the following command: /sbin/e2fsck -n -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p37
Good luck

So, I did part of this because I'm having a similar issue. I was able to flash CWM, but unable to mount USB storage in order to get this thing booted up. I tried to sideload and that's unsuccessful.
When I use the devices command in adb, it doesn't list it. However, when I typed devices in fastboot, it listed it. Obviously, I'm starting to get pissed.

i had a same problem,needed 3 days to solve it.I understand that adb cant recognize the device(i was getting that error too)and(typing "adb devices" sometimes shows the device)--,but can you put a zip file on internal storage of the phone,now when you have cwm recovery?try to get many informations as you can,read,you will fix this.i didnt try to fix partitions mentioned above,but you can try with that.

It seems like your data partition is trashed, and maybe you need to format it. This is more aggressive than wiping /sdcard and /data. TWRP can do this, and CWM probably can, too. Also, "fastboot devices" should only show the phone when it's in fastboot mode, and "adb devices" will show the phone when it's in recovery or running Android (with USB Debugging enabled).
If you want to poke around a little bit before taking this drastic step, I would try one more time to get adb connected--boot the phone to recovery, wait a few seconds, attach the cable, then give "adb devices" another try. Also, I don't know if the driver necessary for ADB is the same as fastboot. It's possible your computer is configured to do one but not the other. Is there someone else's computer you can ask to use for a few minutes to check this?

Solved unmount /system /cache /data
i've format all the formattable things in twrp , reboot and used adb push and after flash cyanogenmod! ! Thank you all guys !:good:

HTC One Soft bricked many problems leading to more problems!

Ok So I have an HTC One m7. and I had CyanogenMod installed. Then jsut today I decided I would go back to Sense 6. So I download Android Revolution HD 71.1 for m7 install it on my phoen. Then CWM(Which I hate btw and can't uninstall no matter what I do) says your phone is not rooted would you like to root it when I click reboot phone. No matter which I click I get stuck on the HTC logo boot logo. I don't care if I lose my data or anything so I click factory reset, then wipe cache, then wipe dalvik cache. Then I get the error were it constantly says cant mount /cache or whatever. So to fix it i wipe Dalvik Cache again. Then I try sideloading ViperOne Rom. Guess what It give me *failed to write 'protocol fault <no status> *
Then I tried formatting my data with CWM which took 2 hours and still didn't complete so I rebooted(which led to more problems) Now I cant say install from sdcard because it gives me the error E: Can't Mount /sdcard. So that means I cant adb push Viper /sdcard. I have no Idea what to do. Help me please!

its simple to fix, your problem is simply cwm recovery, you need to use twrp to flash either of those rom's, so start there, recommended is 2.6.3.3, its the most problem free.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then enter recovery, select wipe then format data, push or sideload a rom then flash it.
ViperOne Install Instructions
1. Download the the latest ViperOne full ROM zip from the download section
2. Place the file somewhere on your phone storage. Alternatively, if you have a USB OTG cable (I have this exact one), you can place the rom on a USB key (FAT32, NTFS are all supported).
3. Confirm the MD5 on the download page matches the MD5 of the file on your phone (ES File Explorer will show the MD5 of the file)
4. Reboot to TWRP Recovery
5. Backup current ROM if desired
6. Install ROM using TWRP and select wipe during aroma install if coming from another base
7. Reboot and Enjoy

did you format data first ? any unable to mount messages, you could also try advanced wip and select everything in the list.
try pushing it instead
with the phone in twrp main screen only, no sub menu's and the rom in the same folder as adb and fastboot on your computer type:
Code:
adb push (name_of_rom).zip /sdcard/
takes a while and will look unresponsive, but the cmd window will let you know when its done. Make sure you unplug your phone before flashing.

I recommend you start from scratch
from the bootloader / power down
wait a couple min and boot back to fastboot
plug the phone into the PC
from your command prompt type
fastboot devices
see your device serial number
type
fastboot erase cache
type
fastboot reboot-bootloader
now try sideload your rom from TWRP 2.6.3.3 /advanced/sideload

So you have CWM / TWRP installed? Try copying a ROM to the external SD card, and install it that way. Clear everything in recovery first, cache, dalvik, etc... I had the same problem with the M8 and it drove me nuts until I did it all from the SD. If not, I would suggest trying the full RUU, it has saved me many a time.

Oh that's right dang it. When I had my M7 I converted it to a Dev Edition by changing the CID and then using a file like this:
http://dl4.htc.com/RomCode/Source_and_Binaries/m7ul-3.4.10-g77e9ea0.zip
Mine was an ATT version so MID matched.

The link just sends me to the htc website. Also what does converting my m7 to dev edition do exactly? Will it help with the Sideload problem or the cant mount cache problem?
And I know you guys are trying to help me. Im just mad because everything I do is not working. Im searching all over the internet and nothing is helping. Errors lead to more errors. Reminds me of the time I tried learning progrramming and I made a simple program but It wouldnt work. I posted it on 3 websites and no one could help me. So I'm sorry for going off like that.

I know it can be frustrating, but nothing you can do to the M7 can hurt it. Try the link above HTC doesn't like direct links.

ok im doing it right now. Im AT&T btw.
I seem to have fixed the E: Can't mount cache problem. All i did was go to advance and click only on cache. Now all I need is to sideload or pus my ViperOne rom over to my HTC. Then hopefully nothing goes wrong. What do I do once the zip file is done downloading?

That might not be the right one, it should be an exe around 1 GB in size, sorry. Look around for it, if it's not still posted at the HTC Dev site, then it is around here somewhere. There are also some nandroids I have seen that should help you restore to stock. Nonetheless, once you have that Viper Rom on there, you should be able to flash anything you want. A full RUU will restore your phone to the state in which you bought it in, just like brand new.

Please help me.

Hello guys I have a real problem with my phone right now.
So I just follow this guide but get stuck on 'fastboot devices'.My pc detected the adb on command prompt but not on the fastboot.SOLVED,i just turn off windows driver signature enforcement and then the command prompt detected my phone.
Afterward I install my recovery succesfully even with some difficulties. Then after boot up my recovery & allow the modification my pc detected my phone but when open there are nothing in it.When I click the storage on MTP my device seem does'nt have any space just showing 0MB on Internal Memory. So I cannot flash the supersu nor the dm verity thus I cannot boot my device.The fastboot is still working and I have already tried this page twrp and official twrp but no luck. I also tried disable driver signature,try click on read-only on first boot twrp still no luck. I don't use adb and fastboot because I don't know how to use it.( You could guide me)
P/S: If you want any log please tell me. Right now I don't care anymore even with stock rom. Some one help me.

Try to wipe everything​ on twrp, data and internal storage included ... Maybe the data partitions is corrupt.
After wipe. Reboot back to twrp and connect the device to computer , you should see an empty drive from computer, but with correct size (make sure you use the latest TWRP by blu_spark)

If you have twrp installed... Boot into it... Go to file manager (maybe under "advanced")... Go to Data/system and Delete the 3 locksettings files. Reboot and you should be good.

Hello,
i am visually impared, so use the ADB interface for twrp, but yes, twrp is installed. however, the data partition is encrypted. when i tried to access the data partition, i got a message about encryption. so i attempted to decript the data partition, and got the message: faled to decrypt data.
#6n.
still stuck, is it possible to just wipe data and erase encryption? i also can't see enough to input password guesses at the boot screen, so the command line for password input is my only option, as talkback isn't enabled on that screen.
Thanks,

Boot into twrp. If it asks you to keep read only don't. Go to wipe. Select Format data and type yes. Tap the button it should format data.
Are you the original owner?
If so was FRP on?
If the tablets reset protection is on and you don't know the Google account name and password your probably the proud owner of a nice paperweight.
Also if the reset protection is on in a Samsung account and not accessible you have the same nice desk ornament.

no such luck, unfortunately. I cannot see enough to hit said button, and no speech in recovery.

OK you can try the following
adb shell
--wipe_data
OR
format DATA
But I'm not sure it'll be enough.

Boot to TWRP and type the following in ADB, be aware formatting wipes the internal storage:
adb shell
umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p39
mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p39
Reboot twrp and data should be formatted.

Ok, i did this, what next?
When I flash the stock rom, the device does not boot, so I flashed twrp, and it shows that the ownly folder in internal storage Is the 'twrp' folder.

After a format it takes at least 10 mins for the device to boot as the file system needs to rebuild.
Also check that data is mountable in twrp.

Is it worth noting that when I formatted, it would not process the -t and ext4 part of the command, it said invalid blocks, so I removed them. I left it all night charging and still nothing. The screen Is lit up but that's all I can tell you.

That explains it. It's important to have those flags as without the data partition will be formatted to ext2.
Are you typing the command exactly as posted, I suggest copy and paste?
Any incorrect spaces will cause issues, ensure there is no space between - and t
EDIT: just realised there was a space in my post between - and t
Damn auto complete!
Sorry about that.

Done, copy and pasted exact commands then flashed stock rom. No dice.

I might need some assistance. (EVA-L19)

After unlocking the bootloader, installing TWRP recovery and rooting my phone with SuperSU (v2.82), I was preparing to install a custom ROM (more specifically the Resurrection Remix 7.1.2.) all in all, things ended up going out of hand and I accidentally deleted my internal storage, losing every single bit of my existing ROM, not to mention the RR ROM file as well. Now when I try to wipe, I can't, it usually says "Failed to mount '/data' (Device or resource busy) and "Unable to mount storage".
I tried using ADB sideload but to no success, only the same message. What I can understand is that the previous data is gone, I tried changing the format of data, system and cache to FAT & exFAT but it still did not resolve my issue.
I'm out of options here, I don't want to have to give up this phone because of my stupidity.
I also tried flashing the LineageOS 14.1 ROM to see if anything was different, here is what it said:
Installing zip file '/sideload.package.zip'
Target: HUAWEI/EVA-L09/HWEVA:7.0/HUAWEIEVA-L09/C432B361:user/release-keys
detected filesystem ext4 for /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system
detected filesystem exfat for /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata
mount: failed to mount /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata at /data: Device or resource busy
unmount of /data failed; no such volume
Patching system image unconditionally...
detected filesystem ext4 for /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system
Script succeeded: result was [1.000000]
Although it said succeeded it clearly did not work and I am sitting without a ROM. I'm not smart when it comes to these things please help a guy out.
(Is there a way to going back to completely stock EMUI 5.0?)
Cheers.

EMUI 5.01 requires encryption, which you obviously removed.
Search for DC Unlocker, it can probably fix it for 25 Euros

I know this is awkward to ask and all, but how exactly do I go about this, I'm pretty lost and I have minimal experience with this stuff..

I never had to use it but here is their portal (with download info, prices, instructions, etc)
https://www.dc-unlocker.com/DC-Phoenix-flash-repair-tutorial
If you search on XDA or search on Google for eg XDA Huawei DC Unlocker you will find threads with first hands experience (I've seen them several tines but didn't save to Favorites)

I'm terribly sorry for being THIS stupid. As I'm looking into this even more, I'm conflicted about the credit amount I need, been scrolling through the list and I can't really find my problem involving firmware I suppose.

People usually buy for 15 Euros. It may help you, Chrome will automatically translate from German

I'm not educated about DC Unlocker but that is NOT neccesary here. You can easily repair the /data partition by flashing the stock recovery via fastboot, formatting data with that stock recovery and then flashing TWRP again. After that TWRP should be able to read the data partition again.
You can easily go back to stock completely and even restore your bootloader by doing a "rollback" to Android 6. (dload method). After that you can normally upgrade from there though EMUI to the latest version of stock.

I've tried using eRecovery to format the data but to no success, I can't even use the touch screen for some reason, (I know about the volume keys, but when it comes to selecting the Wi-Fi, there is no success whatsoever). If you do know a fix for this, could you possibly walk me through this?

UPDATE: I flashed the stock recovery image and it showed me the wipe cache partition and factory data and system reset, I tried both, only the cache one succeeded, the other one failed. I saw a post that directed you to flash boot.img, recovery.img, recovery2.img and then system.img, I did that, but I couldn't boot into my phone - the good thing is however! That I can use my touchscreen in the recovery now.
Obviously the second time booting into EMUI recovery it prompts me to 'Download latest version and recovery', I try to connect to my Wi-Fi, seems okay but then it suddenly fails. More specifically it says 'Getting package info failed'. Save me please :crying:

So this "erecovery" never worked in any way for me (the one which offers you to download the latest version).
Instead you need the normal recovery you already used. Formatting failed for me the first time too, try it again and then it will try to format "low-level" which worked for me.
Go directly into fastboot from that, flash TWRP and go directly into TWRP.
After that should be able to use /data in TWRP. As soon as you are able to start TWRP without any error messages (like "Device busy" or something) go to Wipe and then format data.
Important: check which partition type you have! For EMUI you need "f2fs" and for lineage you need "ext4". You can see and change that in TWRP under Wipe -> "change or repair filesystem".
If you have any more questions, just ask.

So what you're saying is, as soon as I get my data sorted and my partition set to the right one I should be able to install the custom ROM. I could use data and even formatted it, tried installing Lineage but I must've had the storage on the wrong type, now I'm back with the same issue, I'll try to fix it and post my results here. Thank you!

Update: It did NOT work, tried flashing LineageOS through ADB sideload, it was going fine before the bar completely filled up around 50% of the way done, it said 'detected filesystem ext4 for /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system' and in the next line it said 'script succeeded: result was [1.000000]'
Help me, I'm begging you, at the moment I don't have an access to a microSD that has the capacity to hold the stock files to do the dload method, therefore this is my only hope.

That's what I'm trying to figure out, when I try to boot in it's just stuck on a boot loop. Unfortunate..

Remember that you have to what *a while* for the first boot. Only if you see no change after 5-8 minutes or so something is definitely wrong.
Have you checked in TWRP if your /data partition is ext4?

I know, but it was flashing the Huawei logo and the unlocked bootloader warning continuously. It was set on EXT4 but as I was saying, it said script succeeded at 50%.

That just said that /system partition is ext4. That is default even for stock I believe. You need to check for /data.

Can you check in TWRP if it actually says /data is ext4?
Which lineage are you trying to install? Don't you need a vendor.zip for some of them?

/data is indeed on EXT4, and I was installing the one that was on the room section.
