Hello Reader(s),
Im trying to help a friend recover his HTC M7 (one) to a working phone. Right now the phone will not get recognized, neither ADB nor Fastboot in Windows 10, Ubuntu or Windows 7. I've tried 5 diffrent cables on 2 diffrent PC's/ USB slots (usb 2.0/3.0). The phone has TWRP v2.8.6.0 installed is S-OFF and has Super CID installed. USB -OTG mounting isnt working, tried FAT/FAT32/exFAt on 3 diffrent usb devices. The only working thing atm is Busybox using TWRP Terminal command . Help appreciated

Sounds like a defective usb port...You might want to replace the usb/mic board.
Is the phone still able to be recharged? When in bootloader and connected to a computer does is say FASTBOOT AC or FASTBOOT USB ?
Okay was thinking the same, defectice usb port. However it will charge via usb, fastboot only shows AC.

So the phone act like its connected to a wall charger instead of a computer...
Did you cleaned the usb port?

Indeed, it charges when connected to a wall charger and connected to a computer it charges from usb. I cleaned the port with 96% denaturelized Alcohol still no go.

When I try to flash the boot.img by running the phone in Fastboot USB it does not connect with my PC. I have installed the latest version of SDK and the necessary files that need to be installed such as fasboot.exe, etc.
I had successfully flashed a boot.img before reformatting my PC but now the phone disconnects when in Fastboot USB mode although it can connect and is shown in Device Manager when inside the phone OS.

Well anyways it could be multiple things. It could be
1. You dont have proper drivers (but u said above you do with latest SDK and HTC Sync installed)
2. Broken USB port on computer
3. Broken mini HDMI port on your phone
4. Broken Cable.
You wouldnt by any chance be using PACman are you? I actually had some problems where my computer would not detect PACman in fastboot. If thats the case reflash PACman and try again. If that still doesnt work, then flash another ROM with full wipe, then see if it connects.

I was running PACman but after I installed the latest update for it my phone kept bootlooping so I am currently running CyanVivo X. It connects fine using the USB cable but it just doesn't connect when going into Fastboot USB.
I can also connect through the recovery menu with Clockwork Recovery.
You have to make sure whether your USB port is broken or the cable itself.

It is not the USB port or the cable because it works 100% fine when not in Fastboot USB. The phone connects perfectly fine within the ROM and in Clockwork Recovery but not in Fastboot USB. I am thinking that re-unlocking the phone may help.
EDIT: I was using a USB 3.0 port and that was the issue... For some reason it didn't like the USB 3.0 in Fastboot USB << Heads up for anyone else having this issue.

No fix unless you want to replace your USB 3 ports with USB 2 ports.
Hi guys,
I have an HTC One with S-OFF and GPE ROM, I'm trying to get pretty much everything back to stock now. I've identified my CID and downloaded the appropriate RUU exe, the drivers are installed properly and the device is recognized when I run adb devices. However, when I try the RUU it gives me error 170, and on the last step it shows this which is pretty weird "abd dfksfsafjsdfkklsj". Any ideas? Thanks.
Edit: It seems to give that error even when I don't have the phone plugged in at all:
"1. Connect the Smartphone to the USB cable
abd dfksfsafjsdfkklsj"

Error 170 = usb connection error either because a bad cable, drivers installed incorrectly etc. etc... Try a different cable, re-install drivers correctly and use usb 2.0 ports only.
Ok so after digging through the error logs I found something really weird:
The reason it fails is that when the RUU runs adb devices from C:\Program Files\HTC\HTC Sync 3.0\ it outputs the device number + offline. I know this is true since I tested it in a prompt. However, when I run the command from a mini-sdk I have placed somewhere else, it recognizes the device properly ( device number + "device").
Does anyone have an idea what's going on? I've installed HTC Sync but I tried HTC Sync Manager as well earlier, same problem.

This is the second cable I'm trying, different port, I have no idea how many times I've reinstalled the drivers today lol. I'm using the latest HTC Sync & Driver version

Try another computer, another ruu. Make sure the usb cables you are using are not only charging cables. Maybe a defective usb port on the phone.
error 170 is usb connection error, so troubleshoot everything related to this:
usb ports
usb cables
usb drivers
phones drivers
RUU
computer
phone usb port

Well this is the only computer I have access to for the next couple of days, and the only ruu I could find. I am not sure what you mean with the cables though.
Here's the thing, if I replace the adb file from htc sync ( 159kb ) with the one from the mini-sdk ( 800kb) it recognizes the device, and I'm thinking it will probably run the RUU as well. Do I risk messing up something if I do this? This is in regards to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54529900&postcount=3 . Thanks.

Some usb cable only have +5v and ground to provide power and charge devices. Data usb cable have 4 connections: +5V, Ground, Data +, Data -.

Never keep htc sync installed when you flash things on your phone, only install it for the drivers, then uninstall the program (drivers will not be removed). HTC sync might be the problem here.

Well I did remove htc sync but after checking the logs I noticed the problem was still the same. For some reason, every time the device failed to be recognized with the adb devices command, what fixed it for me was putting the it in fastboot, weird.

device offline when booted into a rom error is either drivers, out of date adb / fastboot, but normally it will tell you if its out of date or finally you don't have usb debugging enabled properly, this also applies to the 170 error, easy way to test if its the usb cable or ports etc is to try fastboot getvar all, if you get a result, then its not cables or ports.
adb commands don't work in the bootloader, only fastboot commands.
Hi i have HTC One M7 801n and cant connect to PC, i try whith other cables, other computers, different usb ports and drivers, nothing works, the micro usb conector seems to be ok, no message apears in the phone and only charge, fastboot says "fastboot ac" when conect to pc. i have the bootloader unlocked but i whant at least root the phone, any ideas pls ?

Reboot your phone and computer then try to connect it again. If the same issue, then look at this post and see if it will help. I have also uninstalled the drivers, rebooted the computer and then install the drivers again but not HTC Sync Mgr.

If you have not done it already, try wiggling the mini-usb cable to see if it improves anything. Is the phone charging? It might be a hardware problem, I have read in some other post that it is the motherboard. Sorry, I can not think of anything else.

Yes i try to move the cable in the side of the micro usb, and 5 Or 6 diferents cables, and yes, the phone only charge.
Its very strange because I bought the phone used and only works one day and the second day lost the connection to pc when in try to unlock the bootloader, the first time no connected and suddenly work, I can only unlock the bootloader and stop working.

Try to clean the phone's contacts with a little rubbing alcohol and/or compressed air. There maybe lint or dirt on the contacts preventing a good connection.

Unfortunately that link does not work anymore. What was on it?
Asking because I got an m7 here where USB works just fine and reliably in both fastboot and recovery. But when the system (any ROM, tried more than 10 now), there's only charging. No MTP, no nothing.
Laptop's `dmesg` says:
Code:
[150266.816544] usb 2-1.5: new high-speed USB device number 16 using ehci-pci
[150266.935189] usb 2-1.5: New USB device found, idVendor=0bb4, idProduct=0c02

Code:

So I'm getting into fastboot mode but it just says FASTBOOT not FASTBOOT USB even thought it's plugged in. When USB is plugged in I can't even get into fastboot mode. Any ideas?

Is your usb cable a data cable or only a charging cable? Make sure its data capable, not only charging cable, try another cable, try another port (usb 2.0).
What is your version of htc drivers?

Latest HTC drivers, tried 4 cables, multiple USB ports along with other computers. It is not a driver issue because the phone doesn't say FASTBOOT-USB nor is it shown in device manager.

I guess that if your phone isn't detected both in windows and ubuntu its maybe a bad usb port on the phone or maybe a corrupted bootloader.
What caused the bootloop?

CM12 was installed then about 2 months later the screen was replaced (Phone was apparently completely drained), is there a way to fix a corrupted bootloader?
Have stumbled upon this https://www.ifixit.com/Answers/View/167884/iPhone+5s+-+Infinite+boot+loop+(after+screen+replacement
Hmmm this guy seems to have the same issue. I'm guessing a screw in the wrong spot causes some kind of short? Even though each screw had a different size and thread.
What do you think?
Hi all,
I know there are lots of similar topics but this is a little bit strange because I can't use adb and usb also.
Device rooted and TWRP 2.6.3.3 installed. I tried in different computers and cables but computers do not recognise phone. It just boots TWRP. Is there any way to copy files in the phone without usb and adb?
I have replaced usb port a couple months ago due to charging problem, now charging ok but pc doesn't recognise and says "unknown device".
