I have a Sprint HTC One running 4.2.2 (3.05.651.6) stock rom and TWRP recovery. It is unlocked and unrooted at the moment. It randomly took a nose dive the other day and has been stuck in either boot loop or bootloader/ fastboot usb. If I try to reboot, reboot-bootloader, factory reset, lock the bootloader, etc it boot loops on the white htc screen.

I have tried to flash the recovery again and erase cache with no luck. I've tried to flash a stock rooted rom using RUU and fastboot with no luck, it just boot loops.

I have had extensive help from @benny3 and we can't figure this out.

I found these links to be insightful and possibly a fix but to repair the EMMC if that is the issue, I first need to get my recovery up and running.

Any ideas on how to do this since it seems that my recovery is corrupt because I can't get into despite flashing CWR and TWRP (I can't overwrite TWRP).

i just got mine out of a boot loop. basically what happened to me i installed arhd 51 with clock work and checked some options that i guess i need s-off for. this is how i got stuck.
had to reflash recovery with teamwin and re install arhd 51 with no extra features. and kept s-on the way it was. im going to have to wait or down grade to get s-off

the problem is I never installed any rom such as arhd 51 in order for my phone to get messed up, thats the weird part. It was fine on the way to school, then I pulled it out of my pocket and it was dead. When I booted it up it was in a boot loop. I've tried ref lashing recovery multiple times and erasing cache but no luck.
