I unlocked the bootloader installed custom recovery ( TWRP 2.8.7.0 ) and then tried to install SuperSU and different versions of it, after flashing the phone reboots and nothing happens
I can't flash any ROMs since the phone isn't rooted.
Any ideas ?

You don't need SuperSU anymore for flashing custom ROM, you can do it with TRWP alone.
What error do you receive or what happens exactly after flashing the phone.

Solved it
I read somewhere that root is required for flashing
So this is how I solved it
Installed older version of twrp
And then rooted and flashed the package

Hello,
I rooted my LT30P with a bat program from this site, then i installed CWM. The problem is that I cannot update my phone through OTA because when I tap restart and update, it enters CWM and shows me an error. I think it's because I need the original recovery. Can I get the original recovery back without reflashing my Rom? I just want the original recovery to update my phone, nothing more.
I dont understand what is your probleme exactly but did you tried to use Flashtool ?

I rooted my phone with bin4ry method. Then, I installed CWM for my Xperia T (found in a thread on xda). Now my phones asks me for update, but I can't update because of CWM. Even if I try, it downloads the update package normally and tells me it will restart and install the new update. When it restarts, it enters CWM and tries to flash the new version. After a seconds, a error pops up saying there is a problem etc.. Before I installed CWM, I could update my phone without flashing it from pc and so on. I saw you told something about flashtool. What is it for, and what can I do with it?
Is your Xperia T Unlocked ? If yes Then Install Team Win Recovery 2.7.0.0 with fastboot and Install a Costum Rom you will have a batter version than the officiel

Why would he need to do that? He can flash custom rom from current recovery, he doesn't unlocked bootloader for that. He needs unlocked bootloader only if wants to flash AOSP based rom (CM, OMNI...).
Hey everyone
I've recently solved my OTA problem (seen here) but I soon discovered yet another problem.
When I tried to enter SuperSU, I received the following error shown below.
As mentioned before, I'm on 4.4.2 and I have NO desire whatsoever to unlock my bootloader all over again. Is there anyway to re-root my phone without unlocking my bootloader or will I need to do just that in order to re-root?
Thanks in advance
Anyone?
Please help :crying:

From what I know, and by the error displayed on the attached screenshot, you need to do the whole rutine all over again. I am pretty sure rooting can not be done if bootloader is locked, which might mean you have a stock recovery image as well - and since that is not keen to be rooted (as far as I know) you need to flash a custom recovery like twrp. I might be wrong in all this, I'm newish to all this.

Since you are S-ON you can not flash a custom recovery or root without unlocking your bootloader.

Well, for starters, my bootloader is unlocked (as mentioned before), thus we eliminate the bootloader unlocking dilemma. But it still doesn't tell me how can I re-root my device: you want to tell me that I have to do is to flash a custom recovery and install SuperSU again, and my phone will be rooted again?

yes you can flash your stock recovery again, might be a good idea to do a nandroid backup of your current config before flashing back the stock recovery.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot

Hi,
I just got a brand new HTC One 7 (WWE, CID E_11) after my last one died. Im trying to root it and install a custom recovery to install arhd or insertcoin. I used htc one toolkit for this. Everything seemed to work ok, but after booting the installed rom (ARHD or insertcoin) the phone reboots after i see the login screen. I somehow managed to reinstall my phone again yesterday, as it was a complete (soft) brick.
I used this to return to stock:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2759000
Now does anyone know why I get a reboot loop? Does anyone know if i installed this stock rom if I get the normal OTA updates again? And do i need to relock the bootloader for this? I would really like to install stock roms again but I'm a little anxious after yesterday. (I've installed custom roms since the old HD2/HTC desire, and also on my old HTC One M7, never had any problems, I think it has to do with the Hboot).
Hoping to hear from you guys,
best wishes,
Olaf

Flash the stock firmware 5.11.401.10! I think your firmware is mismatched.
By flashing the firmware after installing the Rom I might fix the bootloop? Or is the stock firmware necesarry to go back to stock? Sorry bit confused, thanks for your response btw

Flashing the firmware might fix the boot-loop, since you flashed the stock rom! If it does stop the boot-loops, you can re-install TWRP or CWM to get the custom recovery.

when using a sense custom rom you need to make sure you use twrp 2.6.3.3 recovery, do not use the toolkits, most of the time they are out of date and not updated, this would explain the bootloops, take the time to learn how to use adb and fastboot, you'll never look back.
nothing to do with the firmware and no need to flash it, if your firmware was knackered, you would have a hard brick.

First of all thanks for the quick response. I know how to use adb and fastboot (at least I think).
If i would (in this order) do the following, would that be correct?:
unlock using htdev
Flash twrp 2.6.3.3 using fastboot command: "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (naming twrp 2.6.3.3.img = recovery.img)
reboot bootloader
Flash SuperSU.zip in TWRP
reboot twrp
flash custom rom (ARHD).
The thing is it isn't a normal bootloop (which normally would come with the HTC logo all the time)
It reboots when I try to setup the phone (in the setup menu). Restoring the phone with the link in the OP, ive recoverd my phone, but I would still love to use custom roms again.

unlock using HTC Dev
flash TWRP 2.6.3.3
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
enter recovery
no need to flash super user it will be included in the rom you flash
flash custom rom, or stock reset rom, if its not rooted, twrp will ask you if you would like to root upon exit.

It seems that insertcoin had a problem in it's installer:
http://insertcoin-roms.org/category/devices/one_m7/one_sense6/
the changelog says: Fixed SuperSU install (might solve the sudden reboot issue in SetupWizard)
It left me without any rom to install, so i had to sideload ARHD, which it didnt want to install via sideload... The next step I isntalled stock again, which I'm using right now.. but I miss xposed framework and other tweaks too much..
I'm gonna try to unlock it again this afternoon and install insertcoin again, but this time ill make a backup first. Does installing the recovery wipe anything?

no it doesn't wipe anything, but you can use xposed and its tweaks on stock rom, you just need to root first, just install TWRP, enter recovery and again upon exit it will offer to root stock rom for you.
I was on stock ROM and had my bootloader unlocked
I flashed the latest TWRP on my XSP
Then on booting into recovery I wiped data/cache/dalvik cache and then installed AICP with the GApps
after installing when i chose reboot it asked me whether to install superuser I clicked no and rebooted
And now even on normal booting it goes into TWRP
even if I try to connect to my laptop in fastboot mode it is booting up into TWRP
basically no matter what button i press, It is booting up into TWRP
I have installed the latest TWRP available
I even tried the hard seret but again it goes into TWRP

Flash tangerine and see if the problem is solved.
If not,
Do a full wipe again, flash ROM, then tangerine, then GApps.

Hello. This problem is really weird. May I know where did you learned to flash the TWRP recovery?
Also what is the current state of your bootloader?
In the meantime, you can try out my Stock Components as Flashable ZIPs to flash. Read the OP carefully and only choose FOTAkernel component.
Flash it through your TWRP. Shut down the phone (Main Menu > Reboot > Power off) and try to fastboot.

Yeah.. Flashed stock Rom again..
But before it i tried installing some other Rom's.. other than AICP..
it was successful for resurrection remix and stryflex..
but again when i used to flash TWRP it again used to start booting into recovery..
Might be some problem with the recovery.. Didn't try any other recovery though..

I'm not sure which TWRP you installed,
but this is an updated one and it works perfectly. It won't get deleted even if you change ROMs.
Flash the fotakernel of your device from the link provided by TechnoSparks in post#3.
Then flash TWRP.
