[Q] Can't seem to get any rom to work. A beer to whomever can help me out!

I've tried a number of different combinations to get my HTC One running on a custom ROM, and none of them seem to work.

I've tried using both TWRP and CWM, and tried installing both the latest Viper and Bad Boyz roms. Regardless, installation completes successfully (apparently) and the phone reboots. It gets past the loading screen, then to a locked home screen. Upon unlock, all I see is a white screen with the HTC logo.
Sometimes, I'll get a dialog with the following error:
Process com.htc.htcdialer isn't responding

The phone then reboots itself, and the cycle begins again.
I will happily through a beer, coffee, or other beverage of choice (or equivalent) to whomever is able to help me out. Thank you!

You did do a full wipe in recovery correct? I've flashed both of those no problem.

I have, yes. Does not appear to make a difference, unfortunately. Performed full wipes, made sure to wipe both caches upon install, still stuck.

You are using a Sprint HTC one correct? May be a stupid question for me to ask, but you'd be surprised how easily people get lost here!

I am indeed I appreciate you making sure! I can't help but wonder if I did something similarly dumb to bungle this thing.

You are in a pickle haha, this is what I would do. If your phone is not in a working state, RUU back to stock, then unlock the boot loader again, flash TWRP recovery, try flashing your Rom of choice. I bet after that process your Rom will boot and run just fine.

Darn. Do you happen to know if there's any way to RUU on a mac? Everything I've seen so far seems to utilize a .exe

I would also re-download your ROM/S you wish to try, it's amazing how easily an error can come from the download itself and not show up until it's flashed

try reflashing the latest radio with twrp recovery, you can find them in flashable zips here in the threads.

Download this http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407573774
Unzip it, you will find Rom.zip inside the folder.
I'm assuming you have fastboot working on your Mac
Reboot your phone into boot loader, select fastboot, plug into Mac.
Make sure you relock your boot loader.
Move that Rom.zip into the folder that fastboot is found on mac.
Type the following commands
1. fastboot oem rebootRUU
2. fastboot flash zip rom.zip
3. fastboot flash zip rom.zip
4. fastboot reboot
Yes you need to do fastboot flash zip Rom.zip twice, it will fail the first time.
Let it do its thing then reboot. You should have your phone back to stock!

[Q] Soft Brick - ADB Push/Sideload; ROM is "corrupt"

[SOLVED]
Hello gentlemen,
I'm the noob that wiped his OS without installing a new one--yea, that guy. :laugh:
Long story short: I'm using TWRP and trying to sideload or push via ADB a new ROM onto the M7. I've tried a stock rom and two other well renowned ROMS. Each time, though it pushes over or sideloads, it fails install because the file is "corrupt." I searched the forums and web to get up to where I'm at, but can't get further. I also tried that other recovery CWM or whatever it is--that one had a similar error, though it didn't say corrupt (I can get that info if it'd help you help me).
Thanks in advance. I'll send some bitcoin to whoever gets my case solved. :fingers-crossed:
Code in TWRP is as follows:
Updating partition details...
Full Selinux support is present.
Starting ADB sideload feature...
Installing '/data/media/sideload.zip'...
Checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found.
E: Zip file is corrupt!
Updating partition details...

As for the sideload, i'm following a set of instructions, "How to Fix a Soft-Bricked HTC One by Flashing a New ROM via ADB" from HTC-One Wonder How To website.
It seems to work and send through. In terminal:
./adb kill-server
./adb usb
./adb devices (to ensure device shows up)
./adb sideload *name of ROM*
Then sideload starts, showing percent complete, etc. Then once complete, it fails in the device with the TWRP output in the OP.

Change CID to BS_US001 and flash this while in bootloader mode.. http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_ul_jb_50_brightstarus_wwe_1-29-1540-16-exe/

How do I change the CID?
What am I flashing there? What ROM/version of android?
No way to do this on a mac? (No windows, no access to one)

You were going to be flashing a RUU of the same version as per your fastboot output main-ver. However, this is this file that I found that you can use on a mac.

Sorry man, I didn't change it to '111111111'. I bought this thing used and it was already unlocked. Please help me out on that.
I'll then try those commands.
So that will install a new OS? (I was convince by the internets I had to use ADB because I have no OS on the device and it's wiped).
Thanks man!

Read this, its my thread and I did the same thing myself, its much easier to do it this way than sideload.

I tried adb push. The problem is the .zip file keeps failing to install because it's "corrupt."

Try downloading the zip file again, other than that try and get hold of the guru reset zip for your phone, however as you are S-OFF you can download any Rom for your phone and push it and flash it.

Fastboot oem writecid BS_US001

Downloading now. That's the same CID as before, by the way.
I'm going with the link RUU, not the one you named (and didn't link). Same command as before.
All correct?

[Q] Bricked HTC One M7 after attempting to restore to stock using YouTube video guide

I am looking for some help in getting my HTC One M7 back up and working.
I used the online Cyanogenmod installer on my at&t HTC One M7 and it worked for the most part including where it contacts the HTC site to place the phone in developer mode.
Unfortunately the radio was far weaker and was losing it's signal all the time. I tried a few nightly's in hopes it was a bug that would be addressed but the issue with radio strength continued. Then an alert about an update from Cyanogen popped up and I trustingly clocked OK thinking that perhaps THIS would fix the radio stregth issue and I can keep my rooted ROM. Instead it broke Bluetooth entirely.
So I watched a YouTube video on restoring to stock. Apparently I can't post the link,
I got all the way to the part where I use fastboot to install the zip, HTCOne-32GB-ATT-5.12.502.2-TWRP-stock-unrooted.zip
It failed but not in the manner described in the video I believe it is due to the phone security set to S-ON but I have yet to find a way to set it back to S-OFF from where things are now.
This was the steps from the video I followed starting with fastboot getvar version-main and the fastboot oem lock
I then went through the following commands
C:\fastboot>fastboot erase cache
erasing 'cache'...
OKAY [ 0.054s]

(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 171.191s
And so it failed. The HTC screen came up but there was no progress bar so I know that fast boot is talking to the phone. I have been looking for a fix ever since and I am presently using a flip phone while working on getting the HTC One back.
Presently the phone boots directly into fastboot and will not allow me to do anything but reboot or power down but I can still use fastboot.
Revolutionary just sits at waiting for device.
The HTC One Toolkit is of no use as it also cannot see the device.
This is what is on the screen presently. Any help would be appreciated.

This was the steps from the video I followed starting with fastboot getvar version-main and the fastboot oem lock
I then went through the following commands
C:\fastboot>fastboot erase cache
erasing 'cache'...
OKAY [ 0.054s]

C:\fastboot>fastboot oem rebootRUU

OKAY [ 47.434s]

(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 171.191s
And so it failed. The HTC screen came up but there was no progress bar so I know that fast boot is talking to the phone. I have been looking for a fix ever since and I am presently using a flip phone while working on getting the HTC One back.
Presently the phone boots directly into fastboot and will not allow me to do anything but reboot or power down but I can still use fastboot.
Revolutionary just sits at waiting for device.
The HTC One Toolkit is of no use as it also cannot see the device.
This is what is on the screen presently. Any help would be appreciated.

Ok
First thing .. edit your post above and remove the Serialno and IMEI
second the file you downloaded is my TWRP Backup and has to be restored using TWRP ...not flashed
it would be easier for you to use the Guru Reset I made
here >> http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358545274
So unlock your bootloader and flash TWRP 2.6.3.3
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then sideload the Guru Reset from within TWRP
TWRP / Advanced / ADB Sideload - swipe to sideload
From PC adb / fastboot folder
you use
adb sideload name-of-rom.zip
make sure the rom is in the same folder as adb / fastboot

Thanks for the heads up on that. I'll get to work on the fix and post an update later.

I am getting the signature verify fail error when attempting to load the recovery image now. Is this due to security being set on, S-ON?

I appreciate all the help and I don't want to appear difficult but when I run the adb sideload Guru_Reset_M7_5.12.502.2_clsA.zip with the rom in the same folder adb simply refuses to recognize the sideload command. It spits back the help menu and I can't find sideload in said menu.
edit: I am using adb push to place the rom on the phones /sdcard directory and I am gong to use TWRP to install while in recovery mode. The copy is taking a while so if this is going to brick my phone let me know.
edit 2: now I don;t think I want to do this. The online resource don't mention anything specifically about installing a ROM using this method.
edit 3: I tried using the HTC One Toolkit which comes with adb 1.0.31. It gave me the following error

your doing fine ..what was the error and why is sideload not in your version of TWRP ?
Is this the same resource that suggested flashing a TWRP recovery file with fastboot ? ... trust me you in good hands now ..just push the rom and flash it
during install choose no to install stock recovery and yes to Root the phone.
unless of coarse you want a stock unrooted phone

I didn't realize the thread went to page 2. I thought you just dropped off the tread.
Sideload is in TWRP but it does ask for a password. I loaded TWRP 2.6.3.0 and it doesn't ask for a password.
I am pushing the Guru_Reset_M7_5.12.502.2_clsA.zip to /sdcard again. I will try the install once it is there.

I loaded TWRP 2.6.3.3 again and I have to hit cancel to get past the password. I then can go to ADB Sideload but it always says Failed at the top while the only thing in the terminal window is Updating partition details.
I loaded TWRP 2.7.1.1 and was able to load up ADB Sideload and attempt a sideload from HTC One Tools which uses adb 1.0.31. I still get a syntax error when trying to use sidelaod from the command line.
It got as far as 77% before failing with this error message
sending: 'sideload' 77%
* failed to write data 'protocol fault (no status)' *
I also keep getting unable to mount /data and unable to mount internal storage errors on the TWRP ADB Sideload terminal.
I need to quit for the night. It seems like I am getting closer to a solution though.
I'll use the backup flip phone and I'll just have to talk to people while out tonight I guess. Thanks for your help.

Yeah have a great night.
When you get back >>
Is you phone sdcard full ?
have you done factory reset and or format data partition in TWRP?
If it's too full to push / sideload a rom.
TWRP does have a file manager feature you may need to free up space using it. adb 1.0.31 is the version i use all the time... never an issue.
you would get mounting errors if the partitions were formatted or erased...it's ok the new rom recreates them

after pushing a file you still have to install it
adb sideload copy's the file and installs it. Push does not

[Q] Softbricked the M7, made it even worse afterwards. Do'nt know what to do

So, I've tried to get S-Off for a while, but my OS had to be the same as ROM version, so I did that. But here's where it went from bad to worse.. I flashed what I thought was a new ROM, but apparently there was no OS installed now.. It asked me if I wanted to unroot my phone in recovery, I unknowingly swiped yes.. So now I'm stuck here in fastboot without recovery and I can't flash a new recovery since I also did fastboot oem lock, and when I try to unlock bootloader all I get is "cannot open Unlock_code.bin" Any help would be greatly appreciated! I'm quite familiar with rooting, I've had similar ROMs on my phone before. The phone is from december 2013. Anyone knows what I can do

not entirely necessary, sometimes helps, S-Off options (depending on your situation)
revone/moonshine -> rumrunner -> firewater -> sunshine (sunshine is by far the easiest and most reliable, but does cost $25)

cannot open / cannot load is usually MyFileNameIsWrong, or not in the same folder etc.

Sorry, I meant root yes..
The code name is right and it's in the right folder.. I've checked that multiple times even when trying to fastboot other files, recovery.img is able to read but not able to flash since I locked it..

The fact that dragging and dropping the file worked indicates that previously there was a problem with the files name or location. Check your using the correct fastboot/adb folder for both storing your files and running your commands.
You can't downgrade untill your s-off. Your hboot suggests your on 4.xx.531.x so you can't use that ruu.
If your phone is not booting you need to push a Rom and try to s-off first. The initial problem you had (with no os installed) was probably due to rom/recovery incompatibility.
Download Twrp 2.6.3.3 form here
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7 and flash it in fastboot.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "nameofrecovery".img
fastboot erase cache
Then boot to twrp recovery home screen and push your Rom
Code:
adb push "nameofrom".zip /sdcard
You can use the drag and drop method for these commands also (if you need) just remember to leave spaces in the appropriate places. The command window will appear unresponsive until the push completes. Once it's done install the Rom with twrp recovery.

You can't use those RUUs, those are for US T-Mobile (MID= PN0713000 + CID: T-MOB010), you have a German T-Mobile (MID= PN0710000 + CID: T-MOB101)
so you should currently be on 4.xx.111.x

Ahh yes that makes more sense , i thought it should be with identifier 111 after searching cid and mid.

So you flashed TWRP 2.6.3.3 and fastboot erase cache which were successful?
But when you boot to Recovery it goes back to the bootloader, Is that correct?

It's possible something has been flashed that maybe shouldn't have and made a mess of the partitions.
Try this :- Download this stock recovery
http://d-h.st/Eq1
And flash it with fastboot remember to fastboot erase cache, then try boot to Recovery. If it boots the screen will be blank for a short while, then display an image of a phone with red exclamation this is normal. Holding volume up and press the power button to reveal the stock recovery menu. Ignore the Mount sd card errors that's also normal in stock recovery. Now perform a factory reset and wipe cache.
Reboot the phone back to the bootloader and flash twrp 2.6.3.3 then fastboot erase cache. Hopefully now twrp will boot. :finger-crossed:
If it does go into the "Wipe" options and select " Format Data" you will be prompted to type yes to confirm. Then 're-push the Rom and install with TWRP.

sorry man I'm running out of ideas here. Only options left really is to flash firmware or an ruu. Unfortunately I can't find anything that will work for you with s-on.
What was the last recovery you had working on the phone?

[HELP REQUEST] Carrier signal problem on my HTC

Hello XDA, hoping everyone is doing great..
Unfortunately i am not doing so great my HTC has become a pain in the a**! lol
When i first got my HTC it was working great signal was strong and everything was working flawlessly.
I decided to get my device S-off, rooted and change the rom to cm 12.1 i was able to do it fine, i Also have twrp 3 too.
This is the info of my phone:
Code:
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.61.0000
(bootloader) version-baseband: 4A.16.3250.24
(bootloader) version-cpld: None
(bootloader) version-microp: None
(bootloader) version-main:
(bootloader) version-misc: PVT SHIP S-ON
(bootloader) serialno: HT358W908664
(bootloader) imei: Hidden
(bootloader) meid: 00000000000000
(bootloader) product: m7_ul
(bootloader) platform: HBOOT-8064
(bootloader) modelid: PN0713000
(bootloader) cidnum: T-MOB010
(bootloader) battery-status: good
(bootloader) battery-voltage: 4135mV
(bootloader) partition-layout: Generic
(bootloader) security: on
(bootloader) build-mode: SHIP
(bootloader) boot-mode: FASTBOOT
(bootloader) commitno-bootloader: dirty-331585dd
(bootloader) hbootpreupdate: 11
(bootloader) gencheckpt: 0
The carrier was working fine until later on i decided to install Viperone i was able to install it fine and it was working fine when it booted. i did notice that for some reason now my device is back to S-on and has hboot 1.61 which prevents me to get s-off and change the CID because for some reason i'm getting a T-Mobile CID now
Code:
cidnum: T-MOB010
When i rebooted the phone it won't detect the sim card at all when i check the IMEI it displays unknown, same thing with the baseband but if when i do
Code:
fastboot getvar
i see my IMEI there but when the phone is booted when i do *#06# i get unknown. I don't know what went wrong and i am out of ideas.
By the way i not longer on Viperone i changed to a Google version and the same thing happened. First boot i got signal and after reboot no sim card detect it
Is there a way to get it to stock without having to do S-off, iv'e seen a couple of posts but none of the links are working.
I can't flash RUU since i am on 1.61 and can't get it s-off.
Could this be a radio or firmware issue? Or what can be causing this? Or how can i get it back to stock fully without having to s-off if that is possible.
I would really appreciate some help, Thank you very much

1st, if your phone is back to s-on it's because you did the command to turn it back s-on. It can't change by itself "for some reasons" like youv said. Same thing for the CID.
Anyway you don't need s-off to flash a RUU. Flash the 7.18.531.2 ruu (see the ruu collection thread in the general section). The ruu and instructions how to flash are at post #1 and you'll probably have to follow the guide at the end of post #2 to write the correct version-main before flashing the ruu.
If you still have the same issue after successfuly flashing the RUU then it's an hardware problem, most likely with the baseband processor.

are you using htc_fastboot.exe or the regular fastboot.exe? You must use htc's version of fastboot to flash newer RUU like explained in the ruu thread.

I was using the fastboot from android SDK. I have one I downloaded from HTC website. Do I have to rename it to htc_fastboot ?

the name of the file itself doesn't matters just make sure you are using the same name in the command window.

Ok, i am trying again now with the HTC fastboot

I downloaded the ruu.exe from HTC now it go as far as step 4/6 and then i get "Error [132]: Signature error" .
Before i tried this i noticed that when i did "fastboot getvar all" on this part was blank before (version-main: ) and now is showing (version-main: 7.18.531.2) I'm am going to try this method now instead http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2497614

After succesfully installing the RUU i still have the same problem. Well basically the same but now i get the carrier popping up but it says no service. Will it make a difference if i SuperCID?

Supercid? CID doesn't affect carrier signal, its only used to determine which versions of ota updates your phone will receive.
