Can you reboot into recovery again and enter to fastboot mode?
Can go between fast boot and the Bootloader menu but if I hit reboot, it just comes back to Bootloader. If I pick recovery it just flashes for a second and comes back to Bootloader. I am S-off btw.

if you have a USB stick, just make an Ubuntu Live USB (no need to install, you just make it, then boot the laptop/pc from the USB), check my guide under FAQ #5 (i think) it's very easy and ubuntu doesn't have issues with hboots, drivers, etc...

ok so the guide walks me up to the point of installing fastboot for unbuntu using a couple cmd lines but for my specific situation will I need any files saved in specific locations? I have never used Ubuntu or Linux before so youll have to bear with me.
Ok so im in Ubuntu, I think I have the guide pretty much figured out, but It still doesnt want to detect my device. I installed ADB according to the guide, but "sudo fastboot devices" comes up blank and the phone only says "fastboot" not "fastboot usb"
entering the command to flash CWM gives me the same waiting for device message. I have tried multiple USB cables as well.

the phone has to say FASTBOOT USB, otherwise it's a problem with the port (phone/PC/cable).
ubuntu doesn't have driver issues, but when you connect your phone to the PC, it has to change from FASTBOOT to FASTBOOT USB.

It doesnt change, so then its likely something with the system partition as it relates to the USB port? Because the port was working fine until the failed flash. But what it sounds like is this is a brick?

doesn't sound like a brick at all, as long a hboot (ie bootloader is fine) no brick should be involved.
but i have to call it a night, hopefully someone will be along shortly, and take over... (timezones ) take it ease, DO NOT PANIC, DO NOT RUSH things!!
Cool, all your help is greatly appreciated. So I should hold off on the trip to the phone store?
Any other ideas to get communication to the phone?
Different Computer, USB Port, and USB Cable. Without saying FASTBOOT USB on the phone, can't do anything.
Hey guys..
I have a problem with my HTC one (m7) and it doesn't start up. The HTC screen loads up but turns off and then restarts again. And does the same process.
I can get into the hboot screen where options such as Fastboot, Recovery, Factory Reset, Simlock, Check SmartSD, Image CDC and Show Barcode show up. If I try and go into Recovery, the start of recovery page blinks on screen for a second then the phone restarts.
So, I can't get into recovery and try to factory reset the phone...
Please help, this is the first time I have encountered a problem like this.
thank you,

Well, it's a fastboot command.
Install adb and fastboot on your PC, then plug your phone and run the command in command prompt.

but the phone does not hook up to the pc, because it does not start up. it is stuck in rebooting..
even if the phone is plugged in, while it is at hboot, the pc does not recognize it, i think?
Update: yup, the phone is not being recognized by the pc, so it cannot do any functions to it. not quite sure what to try out at this point.
Update 2: hi thanks again for the suggesetion. I plugged in the USB in a different USB slot on my pc, and I heard the sound of connection. I am currently in the Recovery page. I think all I have to do know if download a stock rom and run it through CMD and hopefully it will start.
thanks again. i'm new to this site, so if there is some sort of review button or thumbs up or whatever, please inform me so I can give my proper appreciation.
I ran the Cyanogenmod factory reset and now the phone will not boot. It is stuck on the Cyanogenmod boot logo. If I boot to the fastboot it tells me device is still unlocked with s-off. From there it will not boot further or go into recovery. If I try to go into recovery it sits at the Android boot logo.
If I need to do anything complicated to fix please explain. I haven't messed with the phone other than rooting, unlocking, and flashing roms.
Thanks!

Try in fastboot there 2 commands:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
After that u should be able to enter in recovery and flash your rom again.

Sorry if this is a dumb question but I go into fastboot and it turns red and says "Fastboot USB" however I do not see the device in My Computer. Is there another way to run those commands or do I need to have access to it from my pc?

You won't see the device, partitions and all.
It should only be present in device manager.
Try the command:
fastboot devices
it should get you the SN on your phone.
If u are new to fastboot and ADB try this article http://techbeasts.com/2014/01/05/useful-adb-and-fastboot-commands-and-how-to-them/
and this one even better:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2225405
After you understand fastboot and adb, and also performed the 2 commands above, if u deleted the zip archive of your ROM to flash again your phone, you will have to push or sideload a ROM, see point E) from this thread:

If I boot the phone normally and let it get stuck at the Cyanogenmod loading screen it sees my device. Tells me the serial number and "UNAUTHORIZED".
Booting in fastboot usb - nothing.

Try to see if u can install drivers manually:
Download the Windows7 (64 Bit) drivers here - http://d-h.st/OYI
Unzip to any location you want. Just remember where you put them.
Plug in your phone FASTBOOT to your USB cable .
Open your Device Manager (Windows Key + X and select Device manager) and locate HTC under Other Devices and right click on it and select Update Driver Software
Select "Browse my computer for driver software"
Click Browse and then select the folder you unzipped with the drivers in it then click next.
It should now install your drivers and then in your device manager it will now show up "My HTC" under Android USB Devices.

Still nothing. BTW that driver is older than the others.
Let me clarify a little.
Driver you gave me is installed and phone shows up in device manager when in fastboot usb mode.
However if I type "adb devices" I get the response "List of Devices" with nothing under it. There are no devices listed.
If I boot the phone normally and get hung on the Cyanogenmod Boot screen the command will show my device serial.

Well, if u don't see a new device in Device Manager when u plug your phone, is either Windows or your phone.
U already swiched usb ports.
Try another computer.
If that doesn't work, it's your phone's usb port, and that is a hardware problem.
****, I just realized my problem. I was using command "adb devices" not "fastboot devices"

Hi,
Today my htc one got stuck in a boot loop. now it just freezes on the white startup screen. So i figured I try to factory reset. But when I enter Hboot and select factory reset the phone just freezes up.
I then tried recovery and fastboot options but the same thing happens: the phone just freezes up.
I have not rooted my phone. It is stock ROM and the bootloader is still locked. I also dont know if usb debugging is on, I dont thiks it is.
Also my computer does not recognize my phone. I installed HTC sync for the drivers (I have windows 8 if that matters)
I also installed "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" in order to try to unluck the bootloader but since I cant access fastboot and because my computer doesn't recognize the phone I am not able to do this.
Please help me... I really don't want to buy another phone just yet.
What is my next step?
I'm here ask help exactly for the same problem.
But differently mine can be detected by the computer. The problem caused by flashed a RUU not completely. The bootloader is relocked by myself. Others is just the same as your discription.
Is there anyone could help us?

Think your only choice is to reflash ruu again. However best that you post output of "fastboot getvar all" so that others can help. Need to be sure of firmware and os versions to get the right ruu.

You need to get the computer connecting to do anything. Suggest you uninstall htcsync but leave the drivers installed. Try a different usb port and cable.

My HTC One M7 is Hongkong CHT edition.
This is the PIC took before flashed RUU.
http :fs1.d-h.st/view/iCnH/00197/1.png
I've tried the "Unbrick project BETA" from the forum and flashed bcb recovery to my device, but neither worked.
Finally I decided to flash an official RUU to my M7.
First I relocked it. Then I flashed the RUU "PN07IMG_M7_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_hTC_Asia_HK_7.18.708.2_Radio_4T.35.3218.29_10.33R.1718.01L_release_420559_signed.zip" from the RUU collection thread.
But in the process of flashing RUU I suddenly kicked off the power of my desktop PC !!!
Now it has became like this.:crying:
h ttp :fs1.d-h.st/view/vQn3/00197/2.png
It is totally bricked! It will only boot into fastboot and cannot do any further action except "power down". Other will just make the phone hang. Fastboot mode can be detect by computer. The htc_fastboot command "oem rebootRUU" "reboot" "reboot-bootloader" and "getvar all" will also make the phone hang. Now I can't even make the phone get into RUU mode! However I can boot into hboot with volume- and power button.
