[Q] [HELP] INCREDIBLE S goes in infinite boot loop

I have got an issue with HTC incredible S going in boot loop. The phone is 2 yrs old and was running fine with official ICS installed on it. One fine day it just hung and after restart went into bootlaoder.
HBOOT is unlocked, rooted, and S-ON
HBOOT-2.02.002
RADIO-3831.18.00.11_M
I have tried a lot of things like stock ICS rom, recovery cleanup, cache+dalvik clean-up using recovery, RUU installation etc.
However, it refuses to get repiared . It runs fine for say a day after stock rom update and then starts throwing exception like process android.acore.*** has stopped or similar and after restart again goes to bootloader.
I have tried different RUUs, however, none of theme seems to support and some say error 171 related to customer Id.
Tried to create goldcard but revskills site is down.
So bottomline is I have tried everything possible, and now I think my phone is bricked
Any other suggestions you may have?

Anyone?????? EXperts PLLLLLLLLLZZZZZZ help me out.......................

Whoa !!! Where've all the experts gone ........

Fastboot flash boot boot.Img

If you have a custom recovery installed.. wipe all except your SD.. and then flash a custom Rom and flash boot.img manually as you are S-on. And restart..

1. take down all the imei and stuff like that cuz u really dont want other people to know that stuff.
2. Make sure adb and fastboot drivers are corrrectly installed
3. If its properly installed and you say ure computer can't detect your device, how did u enter command fastboot getvar all??? Is your computer detecting your device properly?

Hmm sorry for the confusion, but what I meant by *not detecting* was computer is not properly recognizing it properly.
it is running all the fastboot commands but serial id is shown as 123456789012 and charging light is not turning on.
meanwhile, i checked the drivers and they look good to me....
I am worried now

F5 ... Please help me guys....

Sorry couldn't reply .. wasn't wired lately ....
No ... I am not able to go to Recovery and can not even flash it as whenever I try to flash it, it says something about writing error (Perhaps it is because of phone not being recognized)

[Q] HTC One Stuck in Bootloader! (HELP)

So my htc one is stuck in what i think you call the boot loader. I powered it off the other day and now it is stuck in the boot loader. Every button I click on the boot loader always brings me back to the boot loader. I have rooted my phone and it is unlocked with s on and running a custom rom. I don't know what to do because it won't load into the rom and all it does is keep going back to the boot loader any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hard to say what your issue is as you are vague on the rom and what you mean as in boot loader as people use it interchangeable with the boot screen and or the actually boot loader (Hboot) menu. Either way, Try to enter recovery (Power and volume down buttons at the same time and or hold volume down button as phone is restarting until you enter recovery). You should also enter fastboot and erase cache and restart and see if that works. Make sure the rom you have is Correct for your phone as well.

Ok sorry I will try to be more specific this time. So the screen I'm in is the htc hot boot menu with the three android dude on the bottom and unlocked at the top of the screen. My phone has been rooted for a month or so and it's been fine running cyanogen mod (don't know what version). So my problem is I can not go anywhere but this menu every option I click always brings me back I the same menu with boot loader reboot reboot boo loader and power down. I can't get Into recovery or power up in my rom. And when I plug it in to charge it sows a charging symbol for a minute then it goes away and back to the menu. Help would be greatly appreciated thanks

then if you are on a mac, open a terminal windows, change directory to the folder where you have adb and fastboot.
Code:
./fastboot erase cache
./fastboot reboot
or
Code:
./fastboot-mac erase cache
./fastboot-mac reboot
depending if your fastboot is named ''fastboot'' or ''fastboot-mac''
anyway I don't understand why you don't know how to do these commands. You said in your 1st post you have unlocked your bootloader, rooted and flashed a custom rom... so you should know how to use fastboot and adb commands right?

Ok so is there a tutorial for doing an ruu I have never done It that way? And is a recovery different from the rom if so what's the difference and what are the files I need for the ruu I'm sort of confused hhaha forgive me not to experinced in this

My HTC One is soft-bricked(?) and i have no idea what to do

Hello,
My phone is not rooted. It was still on factory setting, with no custom roms. I've been keeping up w/ the updates and i don't recall anything "special" happening before it was bricked yesterday night.
I tried accessing the fastboot screen (vol down + power button), and tried recovering, rebooting, and factory resetting, and they all sent it back to a freezing boot screen.
Using Hasoon2000's HTC One All-In-One Toolkit, I tried to boot it into bootloader, after a couple of hours, I saw a black screen w/ a red triangle in the middle, and after that, it just went back to being frozen at the Htc boot screen.
I have no idea what to do, any suggestions would help.
Thank You

Since, it is completely stock and you didn't change anything, it might be a hardware issue. I would return it to HTC or your carrier for repair. The black screen with the red triangle is the stock recovery screen. The other thing you might try is run a RUU if available. Can you post a fastboot getvar all with the imei and serialno removed?

first of all, if you are not returning your device to your carrier or htc like majmoz suggested above and you want to troubleshoot it yourself, you will need to get rid of that toolkit and learn how to use ADB and FASTBOOT from a command window. Toolkits aren't the best thing when troubleshooting. They often comes with outdated stuff.
Install your HTC drivers correctly on your computer
download and install the Android SDK or Minimal ADB and FASTBOOT
do the commands cIsA told you on your other thread and post the results. The output of "fastboot getval all" could also be useful

Tried that, but still can't get my pc to recognize the device in bootloader, althought HTC sync does pop up every time i connect it.
When i type "fastboot devices" in the command prompt, nothing happens, then "fastboot clear cache" just shows "waiting for device".
I have downloaded the latest drivers, currently updating HTC Sync, hoping it'd affect something

try another usb cable, another usb port. If the drivers are correctly installed, and the usb port/cable are ok and you still can't use fastboot commands from bootloader, it might be an hardware issue.

if your phone is still under warranty, send it for repair because the next actions will void the warranty:
You'll probably have to unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery and flash a rom.
Not sure why this happened on a 100% stock phone. Normally, users get in this situation when flashing custom roms

Here's something new: after unlocking my phone, and having confirmed that i wanted all my "personal data erased", it just booted up normally and it worked, but then, while using it, t=it simply crashed...and got stuck in the bootloop again, which kinda points in the arrow of hardware issue again. I'm gonna try installing a rom (after i figure out how) and see where that leads me.
Update: Flashed CM11, phone still on boot loop, sending to repair soon.
Everyone, thanks for the help anyway, I really appreciate it.

[Q] HTC ONE (M7UL) imei problems + rebooting + s-on

Hi you all,
So to start things off i might say i tried alot of things to revive my htc one.
What happenend?
I wanted to give my htc one some new life so I thought lets factory reset it. All worked well but then the horror just began. My One began rebooting and rebooting itself over and over. So what i did next was enabled flight mode throught the power button and restarted the phone. So from then on it was running for about 30 seconds untill it starts rebooting again.
So what I did is unlock the phone and tried several Custom Roms. The only ones working are old cm11 roms, but I can not get S-Off to reflash the firmware because I am stuck with an eMMC 9001xxxxx... chip, so I guess bad luck for me.
So now my phone will not detect ANY SIM Card and will not show any imei number or baseband in the os. In the bootloader however they are still there, both of them.
RUU's will not work for me as I am S-ON and stuck on hboot 1.57
SunShine is not working either as my phone shuts down after aprox. 30 seconds on sense rom.
Firewater is not working either as it has an 9001.... eMMC chip.

Hi you all,
So to start things off i might say i tried alot of things to revive my htc one.
What happenend?
I wanted to give my htc one some new life so I thought lets factory reset it. All worked well but then the horror just began. My One began rebooting and rebooting itself over and over. So what i did next was enabled flight mode throught the power button and restarted the phone. So from then on it was running for about 30 seconds untill it starts rebooting again.
So what I did is unlock the phone and tried several Custom Roms. The only ones working are old cm11 roms, but I can not get S-Off to reflash the firmware because I am stuck with an eMMC 9001xxxxx... chip, so I guess bad luck for me.
So now my phone will not detect ANY SIM Card and will not show any imei number or baseband in the os. In the bootloader however they are still there, both of them.
RUU's will not work for me as I am S-ON and stuck on hboot 1.57
SunShine is not working either as my phone shuts down after aprox. 30 seconds on sense rom.
Firewater is not working either as it has an 9001.... eMMC chip.

You don't need s-off to flash firmware. You only need s-off to downgrade or to use custom firmware. You will however need to relock your bootloader. Although I should tell you Unknown imei & Baseband often turns out to be a hardware problem.
You can flash this firmware with a relocked bootloader. You will need to 're flash custom recovery and Rom to boot the phone afterwards. Unless you flash a stock Rom first, Stock Rom can be downloaded here http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/development/rom-4-4-3-sense-6-6-09-401-5-100-stock-t2854300
Firmware download
http://xda7.androidrevolution.org/db_mirror/Firmware/HTC/HTC_One/401/6.09.401.10.zip
Download it and put it in your fastboot folder and rename it firmware.zip.
Reboot the phone to the bootloader and Connect fastbootusb. Now open your Fastboot command line and type
Code:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
--- case sensitive. ---^^^
The phone will reboot to a black screen with a Silver HTC LOGO. This is RUU mode. Now we're going to flash the firmware.
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
The first flash will be short. It's just a preupdate preparing the hboot for the new firmware. So we need to do the same command again.
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
The second flash will take a little longer and this time it will flash the full firmware. The progress bar on the phone screen will not reach 100% this is normal as long as the command window has completed its output the flash is done.
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Ok cheers m8!
I am gonna try it right now. Yeah I heard about the hardware problem, but I was thinking mine might be not because it happened after a factory reset (done in the os itself). I once was able to bring back baseband and imei but I just can't remember what exactely I did.
So I am going to report back as soon as I tried. I am wondering.
Btw you know what hardware defect actually would cause it (just wondering)
Thx!

With your phone s-on and on the latest firmware there's not much else you can do but flash the firmware package I linked. If you can get s-off you can try an ruu.
From a hardware perspective It's the antenna connector pin that causes the issue as far as I'm aware. I only know of one that was repaired without returning to HTC and the antenna connector pin was the cause. Replacing it solved the problem.

So I did everything and it worked. But only for 5-10 minutes and then it startet rebooting again and again. So I guess this is a hardware problem too and as I don't have any warranty or something there my m7ul goes...
Thx for your help anyways!

bootloader refuses to unlock

I've tried to unlock the boot loader of my HTC one m7 to no avail.
I tried unlocking it via htcdev but after wiping my phone, my boot loader still remained locked.
is there any alternative way of unlocking the boot loader without htcdev?
I saw one that involved typing some commands in fastboot but I'm afraid that might wreck the phone.
PS, I'm a newbie so please make any suggestions as plain as possible

So is your device ***LOCKED*** or ***RELOCKED*** by which I mean has it ever been unlocked before or this is the first time?
Normally the course of action for bootloader unlocking issues is to flash a matching firmware package and request a new Unlock_code.bin. But let's see what variant of M7 you have first not all M7s can be unlocked via HTCdev.
Could you post the out put of
Code:
fastboot getvar all
Please remove your IMEI and Serial numbers before posting for security purposes
If you can't use HTCdev and your device is s-on then the only option is Sunshine App but it costs $25 so let's see what you've got and go from there :good:

Ok your s-off That's good you have a couple of options here. You can flash a firmware package and request a new Unlock_code.bin as I mentioned above. :good: I'll see if I can find a firmware zip for you and post the link here
EDIT: -You can download a matching firmware here http://d-h.st/NPJ. Do you know how to flash firmware.zips with fastboot?
Or you can boot a custom recovery and unlock it yourself using "adb shell"
With the recovery image file in your fastboot folder. Connect fastboot usb and in the command window type
Code:
[B]fastboot boot recovery "name-of-recovery".img[/B]
[B]adb shell[/B]
[B]su[/B] (if needed to get a*#*prompt)
[B]echo -ne "HTCU" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=33796[/B]
(i would very strongly recomend you copy/paste this)
[B]exit[/B]
(exit a second time if you need to to get back to a normal > prompt)
[B]adb reboot bootloader[/B]
verify you are now unlocked
The above method is taken from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2475914 Thanks should go to the OP :good:

thanks for the quick replies. I already have twrp installed. should I now run the command?
will it erase my files?

HTCdev method will wipe your DATA and SDCARD
Recovery command method will not wipe anything :good:

no,it does not erase data.
the flashing of unlock code,and relock command initiate hboot to factory reset. this is only changing the flag that hboot checks.

tried this but it didn't work. the boot loader remained locked.
the phone was once bricked and I had it fixed via a JTAG. could this be a reason for this?

Mmmm that's strange try again but this time use CWM https://www.dropbox.com/s/82kt3edku0j2sup/cwm.img?dl=0 you don't need to flash it just boot it with
Code:
fastboot boot cwm.img
Failing that did you try the firmware method?

I haven't tried the firmware method. can you walk me through it?

Download the firmware package linked in my previous post. Put the zip in your fastboot folder and rename it "firmware.zip"
Boot your phone to the bootloader and connect fastbootusb, Now in the fastboot command line type
Code:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
--- case sensitive ---^^^
Your phone will reboot to a black screen with silver HTC logo. This is ruu mode we can now flash the firmware.
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
The first flash is just a pre-update. The screen will go off and then return to ruu mode. Flash the zip again immediately.
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
The second flash will flash the firmware, the progress bar on the screen will not reach 100% this is normal as long as the command line has finished it's output it's done.
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now go to htcdev and complete the Unlock my bootloader procedure to get a new Unlock_code.bin :fingers-crossed:
FYI :- Flashing the firmware will restore the Stock Recovery so after the Unlock you will need to flash your Custom recovery again

I followed the steps but my phone is now stuck in the htc logo. I can't even switch it off

done this and now the phone is stuck in the htc logo. i've been trying to switch off the phone and try to boot into bootloader but holding down the power button only makes the capacitive buttons flash on and off. i'm in a fix. any help?:crying:

Hold down the power button and the volume down together, the capacitive buttons will flash, don't worry just let them flash and just keep holding down those 2 buttons, when they stop flashing which is about 12 to 15 times, release the power button, but continue to hold down the volume down the phone should now boot to the bootloader.

Your Stuck on the HTC logo because you flashed the firmware and you have a custom rom. The Firmware restored your Stock Recovery and boot.img. Were you able to unlock the bootloader? You need to do that before you try flash anything. It was the Custom recovery and boot.img that caused the problem with unlocking the bootloader.
To make your phone boot to your rom again open the zip file of the rom installed on the phone and extract the boot.img to your fastboot folder. Then flash it with fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
or just flash your rom again or any compatible rom :good:
P.S for the record when you post you should be quoting my last post or mention me like this @Danny201281 Then I will get a notification and you will get a faster response :good:

i'm currently in fastboot and there doesn't seem to be any change even after flashing the firmware.
i'm still s-off.
tried unlocking the bootloader again and it still remains locked. should i retry flashing the firmware?

That is weird, are there any files on the device you need to keep? I'm running out of ideas here but you could try factory reset from the stock recovery but i'm not sure it will help. After that the only other thing I can suggest is flashing a full RUU.
Stock recovery factory reset instructions
Select recovery from the bootloader menu. The screen will turn black for a while and then display an image of a phone with red exclamation. Don't worry that's normal. Hold Volume up and press the power button to reveal the stock recovery menu. You will also see some errors about failed to mount sdcard that's also normal in Stock Recovery.
Select Factory Reset from the recovery menu. :good:
In the mean time i'll check out your options for RUU

Ok it seems your in luck. There's plenty of RUU's for your T-Mobile device. Look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2375223 and download this T-Mobile HTC One RUU 1.27.531.11
Simple to use just connect fastboot usb in the bootloader and launch the ruu on your pc. This will also wipe your device and return you to Stock.

@Danny201281, i'll download the RUU but will it be possible to flash twrp recovery and restore a backup of the ROM I made so?
won't that bring the phone back to life?

You can't flash recovery while the bootloader is locked not even with s-off.
You could open the firmware zip you flashed and replace the recovery and boot.img with twrp and the boot.img of your Rom. Then flash the firmware zip. The phone should then boot up no problem. And you'll have the custom recovery back. If you want you can send me the boot.img or a link to the Rom on your phone and I can make the zip for you
Can I ask why you locked it in the first place? There's really no need to lock or relock when the device is s-off.
It's starting to look more like a hardware problem though. As I say normally it's some customization in the firmware that causes the problem. But with non of the methods working even with stock firmware it seems like the bootloader is not excepting any unlock instruction.

@ Danny201281, I replaced the stock recovery in the firmware.zip with twrp and flashed the firmware and was able to boot into twrp. I then copied a nandroid backup I made previously into the phone and restored it and the phone booted up properly.
how do I extract the boot.IMG from the nandroid?
thanks for your help so far
