HTC m7 stays black after sideload/mounting in twrp - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
a friend of mine gave me his broken m7 it was completly stock (no root nothing) and i could acces the recovery mode everything i tried didnt help (full wipe new installation...) the phone was stuck on the htc loading screen.
So i decided to install twrp to maybe get an costum rom on the phone ... everything looked good
i could enter twrp and i tried the sideloader funktion but i had problems that i always lost connection to the phone so i tried to mount it to send the new rom to the phone that did also work but after like 40% of the file was copied the phone get stucked and i lost usb connection again... (maybe it still was in sideload)
I I tried to reboot the phone but now it just stays black if i connect it to the pc i get the usb unplug/plug sound when i press the hardreset...
Can i dispose the Phone now or do you have any suggestions what i can do further ?
Thank you !

no one any idea ?

You cannot install custom recovery with locked bootloader. You need to unlock your bootloader then flash your recovery thru fastboot.

[Q] HTC One Bricked (bootloop)

Hello folks,
During update from Revolution HD 3.4 to 3.5 something went wrong and process stopped before it got finished. Now I ended up in bootloop, even recovery is not working. I've tried to use RUU but failed on CID verification as I'm having the phone from 3 IE. Is any chance to bring it back to life or i just got very expensive paper weight ?
Or if anyone can provide RUU for 3 IE I'm willing to pay for it.
Bad day, bad day...
Thank you for any advice.

Thanks, for hint. Got recovery working again
What I have done.
1.) Unlocked, re-locked bootloader.. (i think this did the trick, full wipe ?)
2.) Wiped cache
3.) Re-flash clockworkmod
4.) Upload ROM using sideload.
Now the phone is back. I hope i will not break something again.
Hi, I am having the same issue with my phone as of right now. I tried re-locking bootloader and then unlocking again and also reflashing clockwork and I am still getting the bootloop and cannot access recovery (flashes for 0.1 secs and then disappears).
What exactly did you do to fix the issue?

Hi Riyal,
I have fixed that issue with fastboot erase cache. Now, I am having a problem loading a ROM because it states in recovery that it "can't mount SD card"?
Figured it out, I just had to ADB push a stock rom and then re-wipe/re-flash

I had the same problem, going to try to sideload this stock de-odexed rom (didn't work the first few times) and CHILL THE PHUCK out until AOKP.
scared me lol first HTC device, brand new, and I thought I broke it.
P.S I realized that REVOHD uses AROMA, that's why it wouldn't sideload.... Am I Rite?

My HTC One device is actually suffering the same problem.
I bought my HTC One Sprint(Sim-Free Edition) in the US and got it to India.
But after I inserted my Indian Sim it said ''SIM LOCK ENABLED''.....I just got frustrated and
rooted the device and tried to install ''Android RevolutionHD (Odexed)'' Stock ROM with the help of TWRP.
But after I installed the stock rom, my device is just showing the HTC symbol and hanging there itself.
It Hangs there for around 6-7mins and reboots and the same happens again.
The only thing I can do is to get in to the bootloader and Power OFF the Device.
Any Help???? Please..... just having a costly paper weight since 2 weeks.
Please need help urgently....!!!
Hi
Greetings,
Did you flashed boot.IMG if no
Extract the boot.img from the Rom
Copy that file to abd/fastboot folder
Now connect you phone with pc with your phone booted in fastboot/bootloader,
Later flash boot.img by following command
"Fastboot flash boot boot.img"
Reboot and your done
If you do not know how to use abd search for it

The Sprint version is never going to work on any carrier other than Sprint. It's a CDMA device. The sim slot if for connecting to Sprint's LTE network, but requires a CDMA connection first and foremost to work at all.

I'm stuck on the same boat :\
I was able to finally boot into CWM recovery but I'm getting write errors all over the place.
I used the AIO Kit to re-lock the bootloader and unlock it - Reflashed CWM - Tried to sideload ARHD 10.0 but the DOS prompt errors out saying that it cannot find my device.
Little help?

i was going through the same thing yesterday and i thought i had bricked my phone. what i did that finally worked, was unplugging the usb, restarting the computer, reinstalling htc drivers, then restarting the computer, then using a different usb port. i was finally able to sideload ARHD whereas before i could do fastboot commands, but it wasn't responding to the sideload, and wasn't able to mount the sdcard, so i thought i was screwed. :good:

Thanks for the tip, I was able to get back into AROMA but the original issue that got me to this point came up again. Aroma installer runs and during the install it kicks itself out and sends me back to recovery, so the installer doesn't complete. It gets to about 30% and craps out just after it writes system data and starts to install the .apk's. Screen goes black and it reboots itself and sends me to recovery.
thoughts?

[Q] Tampered- unlocked HTC One

Iám from the netherlands. I have flashed a custom Rom on my Htc one, but at the end i made probably the wrong choice to root again.
After rebooting the device, it keeps on rebooting. it's never stops. when i enter recovery mode than the screen shows Tampered and Unlocked.
I have tried all the options shown in the recovery mode, Reboot,reset to factory, Hiboot, reboot to USB etc. Nothing seems to change the Loop which the phone is in.
I can't get access via Usb to the phone.
Iám a little bit desperate.
Please can you help me.

Hoi Maarten,
Follow nkk71's instructions on how to gain access again to your phone.
Keep in mind that 4.4 GPe needs indeed S-OFF and also TWRP doesn't always give good results, CWM Touch worked fine for me.
Also, didn't you create a backup of your stock rom in your recovery? Does restoring that one work?

Actually, for anything 4.4 you need TWRP 2.6.3.3 anything other (available at the moment) doesnt work well with 4.4; it may work but not guaranteed.

use the adb sideload method posted above to get a pre 4.4 rom onto your phone, unless you wipe "internal storage" (aka /sdcard or /data/media) it won't be lost.
you can also use "adb pull" commands to get your files from your phone before flashing; adb works in custom recovery (CWM or TWRP).

My phone is stuck on the white HTC screen/ bootloop. CM11

I made the mistake of installing the ElementalX kernel on my phone, running CyanogenMod 11. I flashed that kernel. It said to let it reboot, and now it is stuck on the white HTC screen. I tried to factory reset it, but it doesn't work.

nope factory reset wont work, you will need to download and reflash cm11 or take out the boot.img from the cm11 zip and flash that, elemental kernel is for sense and GPe rom's only.

See, that's the problem. I can't access ANYTHING at all. I'm in CWM recovery right now and I have NOTHING in my storage. When I try to install zip, there's not directory, or anything. My computer won't recognize my phone. I flashed tinykernel last night, and I heard about ElementalX and flashed that over it. After the AROMA installation, my phone's screen went blank and now it is stuck on the HTC screen. I can't flash anything at all.

try flash the latest twrp recovery: https://dl.twrp.me/m7/twrp-2.8.6.0-m7.img
fastboot flash recovery (name of recovery).img
fastboot erase cache (this is important)
fastboot reboot-bootloader
now try and enter recovery, main recovery screen only, plug your phone into your computer and see if it opens up on your computer.
Could you also post your fastboot getvar all without imei and serial number please.

I got to install TWRP recovery and erase cache. The only thing left is for my computer to recognize my phone so I can flash a custom ROM.

Cannot install TWRP recovery

Which is weird as it worked before.
Basic stuff. Android 6.0.1, MIUI 8.1
Bootloader unlocked
USB ADB drivers installed
Debugging on
Run TWRP and device is recognised, TWRP isntalled successfully but when I reboot phone into recovery, I get the standard "phone connected to usb cable" graphic. Im at a loss to know it wont go into TWRP, suggestions please?
Need to root to adjust in cqll volume settings, thx.

Not sure about alle the steps you did or did not do.
But if you install TWRP and then reboot back to MIUI, it will overwrite the recovery again.
From the TWRP.me site:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot reboot
Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.
Ok, followed all the steps exactly, the phone boots into twrp, then i reboot in system, or let it reboot by disconnecting, same thing happens. Black screen MI logo, bootloader unlock, in red, at the bottom of the screen with an open padlock.
Now it wont boot at all.
This is weird, I can boot into fastboot and recovery but when i try to flash, the device is redognised but i cannot see it in the drop down menu to find the rom. Grrrrrr im stuck.

OK, if you want to keep MIUI, just flash MIUI again and it should install the needed firmware, recovery etc.
You can use the recovery zip for this or the fastboot gz version to install (both should work).
If you want a custom rom installed, go to the Lineage thread (i use that since feb, with weekly updates) or another one.
Read the first few post carefully, but if you want to install it (Lineage), do flash the firmware first via recovery before flashing the rom (don't forget this one).
Update. I can get into TWRP recovery but have no back up.
If I try to boot into system I get a black screen with Mi logo and a red unlocked boot loader padlock graphic.
If i boot into fast boot and run miflash, the phone is recognised but the sd storage does not appear in the drop down at all.
I cannot use the pcsuite software and if the phone is not in TWRP or fastboot mode it is on the black screen with logo with red unlocked padlock and is not recognised by the PC. I dont know what else to do, any help will be greatly appreciated.
Found out the problem it was supersu, gonna try a different version

Glad you found the problem.
I think that MIUI has already build in the SU via the Developer options, but i'm not sure of that.
If you think of Lineage, just flash the Lineage Su addon after the Lineage rom.
Works great.

MIUI has some sort of verification on boot. If it detects a custom recovery different from stock one, it won't boot. You need to use zcx twrp. It can bypass this verification.

rom..disaster

Hi Guys..I made a mess with HTC One M8.
I used the 2.0 bootload and flash unlocking tool twrp 2.7.0 and SuperSU flash
Then I cleaned the memory and I also deleted the rom..disaster

Boot recovery mode possible and twrp possible but not recognized by the PC by connecting USB
Any idea how to fix?
I need your help. Thank you
Sorry my neighbor english.
