Ok I hope I am in the right section. I have literally tried everything on this forum to return my wife's vivid to stock. The ruu doesn't work it says it's the wrong one, except it's not !!! her phone says vivid in the settings menu but is being reported as holiday in hboot unlocked s-on. I am on windows 8 and none of the fastboot or adb drivers will recognize the device, I even disable driver signing and fastboot will still not recognize it.
The phone has been acting wonky and I want to warranty it. I don't have access to recovery even though I've flashed them multiple times with cwm and goomanager. All I can do is boot into bootloader or boot into android, recovery hangs on htc white screen. phone will not charge when it's off?!?!?! WTF I'm stuck.
all the recovery PH39IMG.zip i can find point to the same file that was on this forum and has been deleted, so i can't try that.
please read my details before you snark me to death.
Thanks

i'm kind of a newb so i probably shouldnt be giving advice but how else am i supposed to get 10 posts :B firstly the issue i see is that you are using Windows 8 which to my knowledge isnt supported by HTC.. so there are no drivers for it.. if that has changed and for some reason you are just having issues with the newly released drivers then ignore me haha.. when i was having issues rebooting into recovery i just reflashed the ones that come with the AIO tool.. because i know for sure those work.. i've used both of them and the only recovery that didnt work was the ONE that i tried that didnt come with the AIO..

Yeah I tried that and hboot says it's an older version and then makes me reboot. does anybody have a ph39img.zip of the stock ICS recovery for at&t ????
I was able to install VMware on ubuntu and install windows xp inside of it. I got one of the all in one tools to recognize the phone and reboot it into fastboot however now when I try to flash a recover it hangs at writing recovery. Does anybody know how to either fix this or brick the phone worse so I can warranty it?
ubuntu usb?
Maybe try making a bootable ubuntu usb stick and install the android sdk on it, then acsess the phone from there?
I tried fastboot and adb in Linux and the recovery won't write, it copies over but it won't write.
Is there a way to modify the ics ph39img.zip to trick hboot into thinking is a newer version so it won't halt the update?

So I accidentally deleted everything on my phone (including all the backups on TWRP) because I'm a dumbass. It says I have 'no os installed', so I'm currently trying to adb push a Rom or Stock RUU into my phone, but I can't because my pc isn't reading the HTC Drivers.
When I turn on my phone, I'm stuck in the HTC boot logo. I can still access the bootloader/recovery, though. So basically, I'm stuck and I don't know what else to do to save my phone :/
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. :good:
I'm pretty sure I've seen a couple similar posts...try searching all the Sprint HTC One forums
..maybe this will help... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2257338

You HAVE to find drivers that work for your computer. Once you can get adb working you have to adb push the Rom to to the sdcard directory and flash regularly.
Obviously back up...again.
Or, second option is to download to RUU. I'm pretty sure that would work... Don't you probably want a second opinion on that one.

I would put the phone in fastboot mode make sure your conected to the internet and your computer should automatically start looking for the latest drivers and install them...once that step is complete i would download a rom and try installing again...hope this was helpfull
I'm not even sure where to begin. I've been flashing Rom's on multiple devices for a few years now, and have never had an issue until yesterday. I was running the latest stock 3.04.652.2 (sprint) but was rooted and used a few rooted apps. Everything was fine, but then I decided it was time to try a few new roms as I was getting tired of this one. I flashed CM11, and tried to put 4.4 on there.
I should mention that I was using TWRP for everything, except when I tried to load CM11, it said I needed to use the clockword mod recovery, so I did, and didnt' have any issues. It loaded without a hiccup. I didn't fell in love with this rom, so I tried to flash another. I had thought I successfully made a backup and stored it on my computer, but somehow, it didn't save correctly, and is useless.
I got to the point where I downloaded two Roms on the phone. I was going to try one more, Skydragon 4.0, and then a stock version of the Sprint HTC one zip. While trying to flash the skydragon, it went into the correct mode and began the series of questions prior to the flash, and then, about halfway through, there was an error message about syms issue? I can't remember what the exact wording was. I googled around, and was told that if I wiped the kalvic drive, it would solve the issue. I accidentally wiped everything.
So here I am. Stuck on the bootload screen. I've got a white background...it looks like I'm in recovery, however, there is nothing to recover. I can't even factory reset, because there is nothing on here. It won't load anything. I've tried following every Youtube video, and read through every forum I can find. Nothing works. I've tried downloading every stock rom I can find from Sprint, but I can't get any of the zip drives to open to get to the .image file. So here is what I'm working with...
Tampered
Unlocked
M7_WLS PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.33.0000
RADIO - 1.00.20.274.0202
OpenDSPv26.120.16:30:08:-1
eMMC-boot
May 8 2013,16:30:08:-01
Fastboot (which I can change to fastboot usb)
Bootloader
Reboot
Reboot bootloader
Power Down
When I try to connect the usb to the phone, nothing happens, it sounds like it recognizes it, but then get an error message stating that the USB is not recognized. None of the other options do me any good. Reboot, power down, etc ,all take me right back to this screen. I've got all of the developer sdk tools and was going to try to manually put them back on, but can't even do any of it because I can't get the ROM to work.
Do I have any options? Or, am I better at this point to just drop it in the toilet, and shell out the money for the insurance claim to get a phone? I thought about taking it to the Sprint store down the street, and just asking for a Christmas miracle, but I"m not sure how much trouble it will get me in...
Please help! I can't go through Christmas without a phone.

did you try to make " fastboot erase cahe(s)" ? it may solve the problem.
or you should flash another recovery that support your rom!

I can't even get it to connect to the usb on the computer. It say the usb drive doesn't work. My only options are what's available on the screen. Anything I do reboots me to the recovery screen. There is no way to re-load anything on it. I think I'm screwed. I might try to take it back to sprint and see what they say. Even though it says tampered on the top...the S is set to ON, so maybe that will save me?

Hold "Shift" + right click at empty area then open "open command window here"
Its better to use another windows instead of W8, Its need special drivers I think

Ok...got into the cmd prompts...keep getting : fastboot is not recognized as an internal or external command.
the phone won't even connect to the pc. says the usb is not recognized...even when it's on fastboot usb
At this point, I'm so frustrated, I'm going to try to take it to a sprint store...if they tell me I'm screwed, I'll come home, and accidentally drop it in the sink, and then file the insurance. Don't know what else to do...
Its better to use another windows instead of W8, Its need special drivers ..
I face same problem with Win. 8
You are in safe side don't worry
I think u need only to fastboot erase caches

When you say safe side, do you think I'll get in trouble at the Sprint store? It does say tampered, and unlocked, but the S is on. I'm just going to go with "my brother in law came over last night for the holidays and started messing with my phone. This morning, when I woke up, this is all I can get to." Nothing loads. I'm hoping they will fix it. Otherwise, I'm out $150 for the insurance.
I don't have a win 7 computer, otherwise I would try. This sucks.

Why are you posting in the GSM One forums ?
Sprint HTC one is totally different than these.
If you have flashed a GSM Rom to your Sprint phone your going to have to RUU back to stock to get your partitions repaired.
if fastboot is not working on your windows 8.1 PC it means you hboot is older than 1.55.000 .... try this RUU with your phone in the bootloader screen
http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_..._NV_SPCS_4.38_003_release_335355_signed_2.exe
Edit: your going to need to use fastboot, type this cmd: fastboot oem lock this will relock the bootloader
to accomplish this I suggest an Ubuntu boot CD
I got a similar problem a few days ago, and this is how i solved it. First make sure you have TWRP installed, while in recovery, push the rom into your phone memory. Then go to your phone and click install. Good luck!

How do you push it? I tried sideloading and it says device not recognized
Hi,
I have unlocked my HTC one using HTC dev tool. Rooted with Hboot. However, i had a problem while doing s-off. I followed the procedure from one youtube channel and it was very thorough and understandable for an amateur user like me. However, my one big mistake is that I assume the procedure works perfectly and hence, i continued with flashing a Google Edition Rom. What makes it worse is that , i didn't back up the storage. Then, this 'BootLoop' problem happens.I have tried some tools that push the Rom from PC to the phone. It doesn't work.
Now, I'm using HTC one tool kit by Squabbi to solve the problem.
But, my the adb devices is missing from PC device manager.
Somebody please be kind to save me and my HTC One.
Thanks a million times
First of all, don't use a toolkit. Go into the bootloader then select fastboot. Then on your computer, open up cmd and type "fastboot devices". If that works, just post here again and I'll try to help.
If that doesn't work, you either don't have the proper drivers, or something else is wrong. The last resort would be to flash the RUU for your model. That almost always works, but will wipe everything.
EDIT: The reason why it says adb device not found is that the phone needs to boot in order to use usb debugging. If it doesn't boot, then it will never work. So do what I said above and let me know the result.
The Whole Story:
So yesterday I successfully upgraded my HTC One M7 to Lollipop for the first time. I was very excited because the UI is awesome. However, my cellular service didn't work. I read that this is because the firmware was out of date.
In trying to update said firmware, somehow I wiped the internal storage of my device (I know...) including my backup. But that doesn't really matter that much... because while using the HTC One Toolkit I also managed to idiotically turn S-ON! So I can't get into recovery anyway...
So I've been trying to get S-Off with firewater because if I can just get into recovery I can install an older backup I have from last year and then get a new ROM and try this circus all over again in a few weeks when my brain is hopefully not dumb. And that is where I've run into trouble with adb.
In the adb console I can see my phone's serial but it always is listed as offline. In fastboot, however, it is listed fine. I have tried so so many things, but at this point I'll try and re-try anything all over again just to get this to work.
Honestly, I'm surprised this thing isn't brIcked by now with all the f--k ups I've had in the past two days.
TL; DR: I royally messed up and accidentally turned S-On. Not sure if it is related, but now adb lists my HTC as offline while fastboot seems to recognize it fine. I can also access all my files on the phone from Windows.
One thing that (I think) is an important detail is that I cannot seem to get the RSA prompt to appear when I plug my phone into Windows with debugging mode on. I have never used this computer with this phone before, so I know it isn't saved or anything (maybe it's worth clearing the RSA keys anyway?).
What I've tried so far:
-Downloaded latest drivers from HTC (2.0.7.29 from 3/3/15)
-Installed Android Studio and updated Google USB Drivers and Platform Tools
-Rebooted Computer and Phone Multiple times
-Unplugged and re plugged USB cord
-Unchecked and rechecked USB debugging
Please...Please, I desperately need people who are better at this than I am.

maybe flashing the boot.img and stock recovery of the firmware you are into will help you!

Thanks for the tip. Does flashing a boot.img and stock recovery require adb? Currently, that is where my main setback is.
If it doesn't require adb, can you point me into the direction of the right keywords to Google to find out how to do that?
