[Q] I managed to remove my os on my phone. Help please!

I want to start this off with that i really don't know anything about ROMs and flashing and stuff like that, so just hold that in mind. I am pretty sure that I have the international version of the HTC One since I live in Sweden.
Ok, so here is what happened: I rooted my phone bu using TWRP 2.6.3.3 and SuperSU 1.91. The reason i wanted to root my phone was to be able to use an app that you can only use if you have rooted your phone. When i rooted my phone and downloaded the app it said that i needed to uppdate my busybox so i downloaded a busybox installer from the appstore. When i tried to uppdate my busybox to the latest version it wouldnt work for some reason so i was going to re-root my phone with Superuser instead. However when I couldnt drag the Superuser folder into my sd card i started messing around in twerp recovery and being an idiot as i am i did a "Format data" in TWRP, when i did that obviusly everything got removed and now i don't have an os the only things i can do is booting into bootloader and TWRP otherwise my device is stuck on the HTC bootscreen. Also when i connect my phone to my computer nothing pops up so im guessing that my computer can't recognise it anymore.
I have using google but i couln't find anything. I will be monitoring this thread like a hawk so please help me.
Edit: Here is more information: I have S-on, it also says ***tampered*** and ***unlocked***
Edit2:If you need any more information for helping me please let me know and ill get it.
TL;DR: Rooted HTC One with SuperSU, Formatted data, no os, need help.

Don't panic mate, it's ok you didn't break anything.
Ok, so you can go into twrp. That's enough
All you have to do is installing a custom ROM and you will have your phone back.
Follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183023 to install Android revolution HD 51 (4.4.2 android)
Since you can't access the internal SD from your computer, you will have to Sideload it. Don't worry nothing so difficult:
Here is the guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2318497
So: -Download the file from the first link.
- sideload it into your TWRP
- install it from twrp
- Done!!

You are welcome! Last raccomandations, when you flash Android rev. remember to select the wipe option in Aroma installer.
Also at the end of the installation press on "wipe davilk cache"
If you encounter bootloop do a "fastboot erase cache".
Also, remember that the first boot after flashing it takes long time (even 10 mins) and it's seems stuck on the htc logo but it's not
Good luck!

Installed TWRP on HTC one, but touch screen doesn't work when in recovery

Has anyone experienced this? I have to force reboot when I load into recovery.
It's a new phone from the factory, it's unlocked and has TWRP 2.6.00

please specify the device, or just post a fastboot getvar all (excluding IMEI and s/n)
2.6.0.0 sound kind of outdated

Sounds like a firmware issue, you need be firnware with new touch screen driver
HTC One

Like nkk71 said get TWRP 2.6.3.4

I just went with Clockwork. I only wanted to use TRWP because my old phone had it, and I hate learning new things. Now I'm trying to do the OTA Kitkat update and it's not working. I hate these stupid phones

you can't get OTA update with any custom recovery
you need stock recovery....
If you want help, post your fastboot getvar all minus serial no and IMEI

So, to upgrade to Kit-kat then CM11 ....do I have to do a complete factory reset, then OTA update, then do unlock/root/s-off and install rom?

Why would you install kitkat then Cm 11?

Doesn't CM11 need to piggy back off Kitkat? I always hear "CM for Kitkat" and when I go to Goomanager, it doesn't give me CM11 only 10.1

All I want to CM on my phone, Im rooted, have CMW premium, SUperSU and unlocked...
When I go to CWM, it doesn't work, when I try and DL from Goo, it doesn't work, when I try to download from CM app, doesn't work. I'm going to throw this phone across the room. I hve done custom roms before, but always using a toolkit for PC. I only have access to a mac for the time being

here's CM 11
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2579229
The Device must be unlocked and equipped with a Recovery,
you need a ROM.zip and optional GAPPS,the Download Links will you find here.
At first,make a Nandroid-Backup of your existing system!
When you first time flash the ROM or you changed from another ROM-Base,
do a Full Wipe via Recovery,flash the ROM, and then the GAPPS.
Restart to System,configure and enjoy CM11.

During the install, it aborted and now the stock rom won't load. It keep going into recovery and I have nothing to load it to. I can't shut it off, and I would like to just work on it tommorow. If it dies, I'm worried I wont be able to charge it back up to work on it. Now I'm pretty worried

Nevermind CM11 now working, switched from CWM to TWRP andf it works great

[Q] ViperOne ROM Boot Loop

Hello, I'm new to this forum. So I'm trying to get ViperOne ROM to work, but after install it just goes into a boot loop. It says the install was successful...
HTC One m7 Verizon
android 4.4.2
was on stock rom before
TWRP recovery 2.7.1.1
Already tried:
factory reset before flashing
wiping cache and dalvik cache
flashing the boot.img separately via fastboot
wiping cache with fastboot after flashing rom
Everything I look at just says to factory reset and wipe cache to fix boot loop, but it's not working for me. What do I do?
Thanks for the help!

First thing, read the first post properly.

System partition need to be mounted in TWRP to flash ROMs?

Hey guys. I've got TWRP 2.7.1.1 installed, but have been unable to flash 4.4.4 ROMs. They fail every time. Those who know my situation know my phone was recently soft bricked after I installed tdhite's TWRP 2.7.1.3 for Sprint HTC One m7. After restoring using RUU and reunlocking the bootloader and flashing SuperSU, I got everything working again and luckily had a backup of one of my favorite HTC One setups using the stock ROM only, along with Xposed framework.
Anyway:I was playing around in TWRP today and went to Mount and noticed that the system partition is not mounted. I'm thinking this may be why I am having trouble flashing ROMs. Should I just click on the system partition to mount it and then try to flash one of the custom AOSP ROMS?

most (probably all) installer scripts mount and unmount (possibly even format) the partitions it needs.

you need to start providing more details, a good starting point is usually:
1- a "fastboot getvar all" (excluding IMEI, MEID, S/N)
2- name and version of recovery you are using (yes, you did mention that, next time add it's the sprint variant as most of us are on m7_u/ul)
3- what you are trying flash (including link)
4- what error does the installer throw? "unable to flash" is very vague

It's ok ..I been helping him for a few days
he has a sprint phone and was softbricked from a bad recovery install. So he's kinda gun shy on flashing recovery's.
He wants to use an AOSP Rom that's kitkat 4.4.4 but all the normal versions of recovery have trouble flashing.

Please tell me if I can follow these video tutorials to root my One even thou I am running newer software and if not which rooting procedure do you recomend for me?

If you are 100% stock at the moment then wait for the Lollipop update which should come to your phone very very soon, because once you root, the update will fail, due to unlocking the bootloader which resets the phone and also deletes the data / preload folder required to update.
However to root, just unlock your bootloader at HTCDev, during the process it will give you sone ADB and fastboot files, keep these, you will need them, then flash TWRP recovery, enter recovery, exit recovery, it will ask you if you want to root before exiting, say yes, when the phone reboots, open SuperSU to update your binary, done.

Thanks!
One more question. Do I have to toggle S-ON to S-Off if i Want to install costum ROMs and kernel?

no, and never toggle, s-off costs $25 using sunshine s-off tool, and if you decide to go that way, never ever s-on again unless for waranty purposes.

the twrp file (yes its a .img file) must be in the same folder where you have adb.exe and fastboot.exe installed on your computer.
"Error: cannot load" = I can't (fastboot) find the file you're talking about
most probable causes:
File not in the right folder
Typo in the file name

I have been distracted..... it has flashed the twrp img file.
