Hey guys,
I have a htc one m7 which cannot turn on wifi (says error eventually) and keeps rebooting when entering sleep mode.
I already flashed the latest RUU I could fine and the flash seems to actually go through with one little hickup:
The command prompt finishes alright but on the phone itself the flashing progress bar gets stuck at around 90%. The phone turns on fine when I force a reboot after this but wifi wont and that reboots also remain.
Do you think this is a hardware issue? I'd say so but not 100% sure. Or any ideas how to fix it software wise?
And do you think I could stop it from rebooting by removing / turning off wifi completely? Aka removing the corresponding binary files like wpa_supplicant etc?
Have you heard of behaviour like this before?
ADD: suddenly wifi works and the reboots stopped.. didnt do anything.. so i guess its actually some hardware issue that might come back.

Upon rebooting of my HD7, many times it will show the HTC logo, then go straight to a screen showing the device being plugged into a pc. It will continue to do this regardless of how many times I reboot. The only way out of it is to reboot into the bootloader by pressing power and volume down, and then rebooting from there. Ive tried to plug it into a pc and let the zune software reflash the whole thing, but it complains that there was a problem with the restore... and when I do get it to reboot, there are NO probelms at all! (Besides the memory problem with The Harvest crashing out to the tiles like everyone else it seems). Has anyone else had this problem? Weird thing is, the first phone the TMobile sales rep brought out did the same thing! I wonder if its some kind of problem with the actual bootloader?
Had the same issue.

I'm guessing there was a bad batch somewhere, a very limited batch as you're the only other person I've seen say this
FYI. I've had this happen too. I had to pull the battery to get it fixed.

Same problem, if the phone dies and you turn it back on you get "connect your phone to computer" screen (and the phone loops turning off then back on to the same screen, and then repeats); and if you manually turn the phone on and then back on you get "connect your phone to computer" screen as well.
Battery pull is the only fix at this point. I haven't seen much of this problem either, if i find out its a hardware issue i'm getting mine swapped out ASAP.
I had similar issue just downgraded it to nodo using goldcard and the issue resolved.
Cheers.
Hei guys !
I have a htc one with unlocked bootloader and s-off.
Yesterday my phone started to experience some trouble with the wi-fi connections. When i turn on the wi-fi it remains stuck on "turning on" and i can't turn it off anymore. I tried to more options by clicking on the 3 dots in the right corner but no succes..all options but "Advanced" are greyed out.
I already tried to flash a custom rom (Viper rom) and reflashed stock ruu and the problem persisted.
Any of you experienced similar problems?
I had that problem on another type of phone. It was hardware. You've already factory reset and changed the OS. The only other thing I can think of is to pull the battery (and you probably don't want to do this yourself). Good luck. I would send the phone in for warranty repair, if you can.
Unfortunately i can't rma the handset for repair because it was bought second hand.
I thought maybe it was another way to resolve this issue.. I found it odd because while i was using the device over the wifi connection it just disconnected and would not connect back on. No other glitch , fireworks or nothing..
Same problem here,
it suddenly stopt working.
it trying to connect and stays there.
reboot is fixing it for a few minutes and problem is there
again.
i have the problem on multiple networks.
new firmware flashing didnt help,
new OS didnt help,
new Recovery didnt help...
I have the same exact problem.
It did turn on randomly one night after restoring a back up. Stayed on all night, gone in the morning.

Im on ViperOne and the problem is still there.
I Wil go back to stock soon and try if that helps. Don't think it will cause I think it's hardware related. But have to go stock when I want it to sent in for warranty.

I bought a brand new second One M7 and flashed a backup from the "old" one. WiFi is working.
Running ARHD with experimental 14.11 I did a factory reset within TWRP 2.6.3.3 recovery on the "old" One and until now WiFi is already working for a day.
I thought it was hardware related but why is the "old" One working again....
And why is the new One has working WiFi with the exact same copy of OS....
Strange
Edit,
The "old" One WiFi stopt working.
Suddenly it was gone.
Going back to stock with that one and sent it in for repair.

After a lot of sending and receiving, the phone stayed at HTC and they sent me an m8 for the inconvenience...
Ok. So I can't tell u guys what the problem was.
Hola, I seem to have a similar issue to the OP. After flashing a 5.1 GPE ROM, wifi never worked again.
I tried different ROMs, different TWRP, different firmwares, and even reformated partitions using mkfs.ext4. Wifi still stuck at "Turning on..."
Do you guys have any ideas? Thank youuuu!
Try going to the root folders and delete the wifi folder from data/misc then restart the phone. Might work.
After running the command below on Maximus HD 46, I was able to turn on WiFi, but the connection would be unstable, with the adapter often turning off and on.
Code:
su
restorecon -FR /data/media/0

I tried removing wpa_supplicant.conf. Tried removing the entire folder, connection still resetting randomly.
How I fixed this issue.

Hello. I have created an account here just to share how I fixed this problem because I couldn't find that solution posted on any forum. It might be helpful for someone, but also I might have been the one that caused the issue in the first place. I have a rooted HTC One M7 running 5.0.2.
So, the "Turning on..." for me occured once my phone's battery completely drained. I have plugged the phone in the charger and it displayed 0%. Once the charge level reached 1% I turned on the phone and almost immediatelly turned mobile data off and wifi on. It was then when it got stuck. I have tried almost all the accepted solutions and none of them worked. As I didn't have time to keep trying to solve the issue I left the phone as it was, not trying to connect anymore but saying "Error" under Wifi in Settings.
I thought about what might have caused this and remembered that I have recently tried to use my phone as a wifi extender using the app called "fqrouter2". Within the app there is an option in configuration "Disable Wifi P2P" that should be, as recommended by the app, disabled if the app failed to work. I have, of course, tried it but it didn't work anyway. I have uninstalled the app and that was it. Wifi worked fine until my phone died. So I decided to reinstall the app and try the "Restore Wifi P2P" option. After restoring it I uninstalled the app and power cycled my phone. When it turned on wifi started working again as if nothing ever happened.
As I said, I might have been the cause of the problem in the first place and I doubt somebody had the exact same situation as mine, but I'll leave this here, just in case. Cheers
I've been on holiday and while there my phone seems to have broke. It constantly restarts it's self - it gets to the HTC One splash screen and then will reboot again.
Most of the time I cannot get it into recovery as it will crash and re-start before it gets there, but I did manage a moment ago to get it to work for around two minutes and in that time I wiped the device - still having the issue though.
It's rooted with a custom rom, but I havent changed either of those elements in a good few months so dont think it's related.
I suspect this is a hardware issue and I'm boned, but wondered if anyone had a suggestion?
Hi guys. This issue just started happening a couple of days ago, it started when I was playing games (phone wasn't hot) then it turned off by itself. My battery was still at 80% so I turned it back on, after it started saying "starting apps" it turned off again and the phone is now constantly rebooting. It doesn't seem to be bricked at all as it sometimes boots to the menu but when i start tapping on an app it shuts off and does the constantly rebooting issue again. It could be a hardware issue which means I'm gonna need to send my phone to the service center for a repair but one thing that makes me think there could be a way of fixing this without paying a technician is, when i boot to download mode, it doesn't do its constant reboot issue. I was even able to flash a firmware via Odin but when the phone started to boot after firmware installation, It did the spontaneously rebooting in the middle of the boot process again. If any of you guys have any idea on how to fix this or if there's even a way to, Please help me. Thanks! Cheers!

Try flashing the experimental firmware from the rooting guide, and if that doesn't work then it is most likely a hardware issue, and I have a strong suspicion that it is.
If you have an external SD card, remove it and see if problems persist. Honestly that sounds like a firmware scrambled.
Hi.
Today appeared some problems with my A2. When I woke up and unlocked phone it turned off. Yesterday everything worked perfectly fine. I tried like 20 times, everytime the same scenario- turns on, but when I type PIN, home screen is loading, and phone goes down. It may look like bootloop, but its not typical, cuz it goes farther than just booting screen. So I tried to fix, wiped phone, set lang. to Polish, and it dumps again, but I've read somewhere, that it might be language issue, so I wiped it once more and set English. It seemed to be working, but then I unplugged it from my PC (charging only) and it turned off immediately. Worth mentioning is fact, that battery is 92%. What may cause this? Is this some soft problem? Or more like battery issue?
Update: Phone works unplugged, but only on lock screen. Turns down when I unlock.

Hello, I have the same problem. I now have to carry an external battery with me, because plugging it in is the only thing that wakes up my phone. If I don't have a charger, then I have to hold power for 30; seconds to force reset. It's really annoying, causing me to miss calls and alarms. Anyone know of any fixes? Thanks
Hey,
I am facing the exact same problem. Though I had an additional problem. My phone didn't charge when I plugged it in until I restarted it. Factory resedidn't help either.
In both your cases the problem is your wifi even if you dont understand it ...
if you can unlock your phone quickly and toggle off wifi the phone wont reboot or loop
your persist partition is damaged from changing between pie and android 10 ..
look around for a flashable zip to repair your persist ( it does it exist )
or take the long root and use miflash to flash persist by modifying certain files in stock fastboot rom folder
but next time explain your problem better
--- what did you do -- change version ( update or downgrade ) -- did you root -- do you have twrp -- what version of android-- did you return to stock from custom or vice versa --- etc etc etc
