I had flashed Sprint_HTC_One_Stock_Rooted_Deodexed_3.05.651.6 and wasn't feeling it so i tried installing viper one 4.2. Thats when things went downhill fast. I opened the zip through twrp 6.3.0 elected to install an update to 6.3.3 set my phone down and went to get a sandwich. i came back to a black screen with nothing else happening. waited....... still nothing. so i tried holding the power..... nothing. decided to try the bootloader. that worked so i tried entering recovery which brought me full circle to more black screen. thought to myself maybe fastboot would work so i got the all in one kit. it kept giving me a device not found message. at this point the phone was coming up as an unknown device in the manager. after several hours i got it to read as My Htc under android usb devices with these messages.

This device cannot start. (Code 10)

A request for the USB BOS descriptor failed.

I have been through forum after forum and cant figure out how to make the damn thing work. tried sevel methods and ..... no. im using a windows 8.1 pc. any help would be greatly appreciated

Check out qbking77.com or search YouTube for his videos. His YouTube c has channel is qbking77. He has done a crap ton of videos for different manufacturer's phones from bootloader to rooting. He has a Sprint HTC ONE that he uses to show how... I believe he has a video for getting a bricked phone back to fixing a fkd up device.

here. HTC One - YouTube is a list of his HTC One Videos

The first video is a how-to unbrick/unroot back to stock.

EDIT: He talks about 80 MPH so hopefully you can understand what he's saying. Also, here's some more videos http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=how to fix bricked htc one&sm=1
Good luck dude.

thanks again man but this might be a bigger problem than these fixes. In fastboot cmd it hangs saying waiting for device. when i plug the phone into the computer it say usb device not recognized. "the last usb device you connected to this computer malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it." Qbking77 also states in his video that he could not make this work on windows 8. I might just have to get a comp with windows 7 for drivers compatibility

 

[klusk91]

All in all i believe this can all be fixed if i can just find out how make win 8.1 recognize my phone

 

[ghostryder12]

I understand. Hope u can fine a Win7 comp. I used my wife's Win7 comp, I have Win8.1 and haven't tried to plug my One into it yet. Damn dude, good luck

Look here for the drivers and setup for Win 8
Once you get the drivers worked out just RUU the phone back to stock and start over

[ADB/FB/APX Driver] Universal Naked Driver 0.72 - xda-developers

 

[klusk91]

the drivers install but it still says the device malfunctioned, the phone dosn't show up when i cmd adb devices, and the ruu tells me to connect the usb.

i tried that, this [FIX] Working Fastboot Drivers for Windows 8.1 x64 and just about everthing else google has to offer. turns out win 8 and 8.1 are different beasts when it comes to drivers

 

[ghostryder12]

So finding a Win7 comp is still what needs to happen. From the results, it looks like the next direction?

Yeah its a driver issue so once you find a Win 7 PC you should be good to go

 

[klusk91]

ya looks like the only option. Thanks for the help guys. ill post when i try that

Congrats dude. Glad you got it back. Now I know not to use my Win8.1 to go S-off. I'll have to use my wife's Win7.
Again, glad you got your One back.
