Hello all, I have a Verizon m7 in which I foolishly tried to install a custom kernel (ElementalX) on the stock rom. I can boot into CWM, so should I use the sideload utility to flash a rom like Cyanogenmod? I'd appreciate any help you may have. If you want, I can post other details about my phone as well.

you can just reflash the stock kernel... extract it from the ROM.ZIP which is Verizon compatible, and:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
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custom rom you need to make sure you use twrp 2.6.3.3 recovery, do not use the toolkits, most of the time they are out of date and not updated, this would explain the bootloops, take the time to learn how to use adb and fastboot, you'll never look back.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.
Hello to everyone, yesterday i tried to unlock bootloader, root m7 and flash a custom rom...everything seems to go well, except that i get a bootloop after installing the rom.
I tried to reflash the rom but still get bootloop, then for my mistake i erase all the file (and the rom too) inside my phone, so i only can flash rom with adb.
I can acces to recovery, but if i try to mount usb otg i can't copy there any rom .zip.
I'm trying with the ruu, but windows after the double click doesn't open anything.
If i try to flash something with fastboot i get this error( see attachment).
Now i'm asking you how can i resolve this?? Am i missing something??
Ask me if you nedd to know more details.

you can't flash a rom with fastboot / you flash roms with custom recovery
is your bootloader unlocked ? did you install TWRP / CWM custom recovery ?
did you erase cache and reboot the phone after installing the custom recovery ? what device do you have ? post the results from fastboot getvar all minus you serial no and IMEI

Excellent !!
Hey, for a while I'm trying to get back to full stock and remove twrp. But haven't figured it out yet. Anyone here who can help me? I'm on Vie L09C432.
You have to flash stock recovery or stock ROM.
Flash with adb then?
Hi, I wanted to install miui again using miuiflash with fastboot V12.0.4.0.QJCMIXM rom. I am doing it to recover some apps that I had uninstalled by adb. But when flashing the stock rom, it was left in bootloop. (I have not used custom roms or custom recovery) Help
I can access to fastboot

Sorry I don't know much about it.
But, Did you try another version? Like 12.0.1

You didn't need to flash rom, just reset would have worked or better yet reinstalling. Apps uninstalled with adb still have apk in system, you could have installed it again using adb. Or simply download apk online and install or through adb push.
