Re: HTC One Stuck in Bootloader and Can't get into Recovery. HELP!!

How's it going?

I tried a second time and when it got stuck in the boot loop I manually got it back into bootloader since it said "waiting for bootloader". The connection timed out again and failed. But since my adb is not working for some reason, I think it may be causing some problems. I'm not sure

Re: HTC One Stuck in Bootloader and Can't get into Recovery. HELP!!

when you have all that done open a cmd prompt and with the phone in fastboot usb mode type these cmd's

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot erase system

fastboot reboot bootloader

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip rom.zip

with the last cmd, if it comes back with a error about flushing or something like that just type the cmd again

Re: HTC One Stuck in Bootloader and Can't get into Recovery. HELP!!

Download this and when and when its done rename the zip to rom and put it in your fastboot folder. Its the same RUU but in a zip

Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_3.05.651.6_RUU_decrypted.zip | by OMJ for One

What should I do with it? Is there a fastboot command to get this zip to install on my phone? I didn't even get to use the other one since the RUU seemed to have its one built in. I thought you could select it or something.

Edit: Oh ok got it. I'll try that

Ya here you go. And when I run the fastboot oem rebootRUU do I need the RUU.exe or something in particular in the fastboot folder?

No you need to rename the RUU zip i had you download to "rom" and put that in the fastboot folder

Please go back to your last post and edit your IME out of it and MEID

ok got it. But these two commands failed to erase.
fastboot erase userdata

fastboot erase system

So that must mean something.

ok did that.
here are the errors from trying the erase userdata and system
dormanair:platform-tools jonny$ ./fastboot erase userdata
******** Did you mean to fastboot format this partition?
erasing 'userdata'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.000s
dormanair:platform-tools jonny$ ./fastboot erase system
******** Did you mean to fastboot format this partition?
erasing 'system'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.000s

erasing the cache worked as far as i could tell

Re: HTC One Stuck in Bootloader and Can't get into Recovery. HELP!!

ok so should I continue with the other commands. I'll most likely get stuck in boot loop for the reboot one, but ill just go back to fastboot to continue

hahaha and I'm over here just trying to get my phone to come back from some act of God or Sprint sending me some virus for fun ha

ok so I did the zip command and it failed as well

dormanair:platform-tools jonny$ ./fastboot flash zip rom.zip
target reported max download size of 1526722560 bytes
sending 'zip' (1174208 KB)...
OKAY [ 50.996s]
writing 'zip'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 51.028s

So I'm guessing there is a connection since its saying it can write the recoveries and erase some things but other commands are failing. And when I tried to overwrite twrp with cwm awhile ago, it didn't work, the teamwin screen showed up and then it boot looped again.

Ya and reboot-bootloader takes me into a boot loop as well as the oem rebootRUU. I don't get a black screen, just the white htc one over and over

okay. This is definitely one for the books. I'm using my old photon right now and its slow and glitchy. Shutting the phone off from bootloader is the only thing that actually works haha anyways thanks man
