[Q] Have I now botched my M7 beyond repair?

And I thought this would be a simple update from T-mobile Stock Rom to GPe Rom. The good news is I have another idential virgin HTC T-mobile M7 (bought two), and could happily make backups from that one if doing so would help here.
I have a T-mobile HTC One M7.
Here's what I did:
-installed twrp sucessfully
-unlocked bootloader sucessfully
-installed this rom vita twerp: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341395
Then the problems, which I no doubt made worse with my efforts to fix them:
-experienced a bootloop after the ROM was sucessfully loaded
-tried to fix said bootloop by flashing the Guru Reset file ( http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/stock-rom-downloads/ ) corresponding to my model, namely http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_1-27-531-11-zip/ .
-Realized too late that this file wouldn't work with the touchscreen on my M7 because the firmware was newer than the rom. So now the touchscreen is completely non responsive.
That would be fine, except somehow in the process I broke both twep recovery (I can't load into recovery anymore), and the usb connection to my PC. (The bootloader screen says "fastboot usb" when the cable is connected, as I gather it should. But I can't find the device via adb.
Interestingly to me, I *can* still write from PC to my internal storage when I do a regular boot. So USB debugging is still enabled (indeed I can't disable it, because of the crippled touchscreen problem).
Here is my current info in the bootloader, line by line:

I am now lost, after 4+ hours of work. Right after flashing a nook HD+ to CM 11 with no issues...maybe gave me a false sense of confidence?
Anyway, would *very much* appreciate any guidance you all can offer. TIA!

Looks like your OS is gone. Did you try and reflash twrp?

Try running this 3.24.531.3 ruu, instructions on page.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2375223

Thanks very much folks. Somehow, I was able to reflash twrp. From there, I realized that one mistake I made was overlooking that I needed s-off activated before flashing the ROM. (I think that was the beginning of my difficulties.)
Before reflashing twrp, I tried the RUU suggestion (TY!), but that needed bootloader turned back on, which in turn needed s-off...quite a procedure.
Anyway, With s-off done (thanks to the very persistent rumrunner_HTC_0.5.0.zip !), a second flash attempt of the rom at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341395 worked seemingly perfectly. I now just trying to figure out whether I can get wifi calling working reliably (should be able to in theory, and at least one poster in that thread says he's done so).
Getting the HTC one properly modded is not a simple process relative to my prior experiences. I'm grateful for the help!

All of that work in the beginning was not needed. All you had to do was unlock bootloader, S-Off, change CID to 11111111, and run the GPE RUU from HTC. That's it. I had an ATT version that saw every different incarnation of software and it was that easy every time. Went from ATT to GPE, to T-Mobile, to Dev Edition and back without a problem. Well, red triangles of death be damned, but it never slowed me down, and the only time I got those was when I mis-matched the recovery img, or tried an update with a HBoot higher that 1.44, those are the only thinga to watch for. Make sure your ducks are in a row and update away. Stock recovery and lower Hboot worked awesome. I probably should put together a master file of everything I have for DL because I have it all and would make life so easy if someone hasn't done it already.

You should really look into updating your software, since the m7 is on 4.4.2 officially now
Anyways, flash the oldest radio from here (the initial release one, baseband 1.00.20.0315), and that might fix your issue.

I tried to update OTA but since I have a custom recovery it just reset to recovery and that's it? Can you recommend me a good one for me? Thank You very much for your help

OK, since you have a custom recovery with stock,
a) it's pretty much better to be on a custom ROM since you can update easier.
b) If you want to be on stock, it's best to back everything up and run a RUU.
If you choose option a), flash this recovery, and install a custom ROM such as ViperOne.
If you choose option b), follow the instructions on this thread.

Please help me fix my phone

I have been at this for 8 hours.
I had older viper rom on my Sprint htc one m7 phone and wanted to upgrade for the new one thats built on 4.4.3
It said that i had to upgrade my firmware first in order to install that rom, so i tried going back to stock by relocking first and after that things went south.
As of right now my phone says:
*** TAMPARED ***

[Q] How to Sim Unlock HTC ONE M8 5.01 lollipop Sprint

Hello everyone ,
I got a HTC one m8 (sprint) from US and I want to use it in Chile. It was previously android 4.4.4 and I updated to 5.01 lollipop (directly from the phone). I'll try to be clear.
My Target: Unlock the SIM and locked bands to use it in my network (movistar) witch works on 850 and 1900 Mhz Bands GSM. : (I now if it work on AT&T it will work for me also)
I saw several tutorials to sim unlock M8 Sprint running 4.4.4 but nothing with lollipop 5.01. Is it that possible nowdays? if is so, can you please provide the link?
If is it not, how can I come back to android 4.4.4 if I am S-ON? I tried RUU .exe files, but they didn't work.
I also try to S-OFF with sunshine and firewater but both fails (looks like they don't support android 5.01).
I tried to unlock the Bands with QPST but I can only see 800Mhz, 1900Mhz and US Bands to choose.
I have my phone rooted with TWRP.
I have spent a lot of days trying to do it by myself but I realize that I definetely need your help!
Please help me !

I tried another method and it work:
1.- I had to S-OFF my device with lastest Sunshine App Version 3.0.12 (you can get it fromHERE)
2.- Then I had to go back to the stock android kitkat rom 4.4.4 with a RUU ROM
"RUU_M8_WHL_K444_SENSE60_SPCS_MR_Sprint_WWE_3.31.651.2_Radio_1.08.20.0916_NV_SPCS_1.52_003_release_403241_signed_2.exe"
3.- Just then I could unlock all the bands following the instructions HERE
I hope this can help someone else :good:

Did you lock the bootloader when you ran the RUU im contemplating doing the same im simlocked but unlocked via sunshine running a custom rom. I'm sure you did but to be sure, when you went back to 4.4.4 you had to run sunshine again correct?

When I had the RUU rom installed, everything was back to stock but my phone still was S-off (So you don't need to pay twice ).
Then you just have to follow the instructions HERE and you will have finally your sim unlocked.
When you finish, you can install any custom rom ( I tried BadBoyz and Viper) and everything will work fine :good:
I hope this can help you!

I had the same problem with my M7 when I first got it. I got it replaced under warranty and it fixed the problem. Assuming your M7 is new you could claim warranty on it.
If it isn't a hardware defect it maybe something to do with your carrier or your sim.
One thing I would recommend you try is running an RUU and updating to the latest radio firmware which may fix your problem. If you post your current software version I can help find you an RUU.
P.S. Also I am from Sri Lanka originally. From Kadawatta.
