Well if those didn't solve your problem what I did was let my M8 run out of battery and then plugged it into my computer holding power+volume down and that allowed me to get into the bootloader and then into fastboot. I then erased the cache and entered recovery where I had a backup ready.
I'm experiencing the same problem, and still working on solving it. But for those who are stuck in the boot screen and need to shut off their phone so that they can boot up into recovery (power + vol down), hold down BOTH volume buttons and the power button and the phone will shut off in a few seconds. I couldn't find this anywhere and was getting annoyed waiting for the juice to run out so I tried a few things and this worked.
edit: turns out it's just volume UP and power to 'battery pull' the phone, not both, although that will work because you're pushing on up

You can also try this if you're not willing to wait for the battery to drain. I also ran into that very same problem, being stuck on the htc splash screen.. However this is how I fixed it. Like one of the posters above i too held the volume button up while at the same time holding down the power button. My HTC One M8 would just reboot back to the splash screen. So, i went through all of the steps above again but this time as the screen went off still holding the power button down. I immediately slid my finger from volume up to down. I continued holding it in the volume down position until the boot loader come up. I selected recovery from there and did a cache wipe and restored a NAND backup. I hope this helps someone.
Found a pretty easy fix
It's a somewhat common problem as I can tell,w hen the device stops on the splash screen (where it says "POWERED by Android") ,, and it has a pretty easy fix, which does not require drain the battery or erase the cache from ADB and so on ! What you do is, you hold down Volume UP + Power Button and keep it pressed till the device will re-restart itself and will boot in to the system (unless you completely f-ed up your system).
Good luck
I have found a way

Press and hold the Volume Up key and the Power button until you see a black screen. As soon as you see it press the Volume Down key and the Power button at the same time. This should get you to your bootloader.

Hi All, I have read quite a few threads to try and help me but seem to have bricked my phone.
I was in the process of flashing my phone to ARHD.
I got all the way through and now seem to be stuck at the HTC Quietly brilliant screen following a reboot from Recovery mode.
When I try and go back into fast boot or recovery it will not let me it just goes back to HTC quietly brilliant.
As I cant turn the phone off totally, What can I do to force it into fast boot,
The phone is a HTC_001 and was fully up to date with the stock SW b4 i started to play.
Just to confirm once again, phone will NOT boot into fastboot or recovery following a failed flash to ARHD and phone is stuck on quietly brilliant screen.
Please help. Thanks in advance.
to enter fastboot, hold power for like 10-15s causing phone to force restart....then once screen is completely black, release power and press and hold volume down until u see bootloader screen....then enter fastboot...
have u made a backup of ur stock rom before experimenting???
seems like u have not flashed the boot.img in fastboot....
give some details...
Hi mihirengg19
Tried that but just shakes and goes back to the quietly brilliant screen and to your other questions NO and NO
Any more idea's apart from using a sledge hammer ? lol
just try again....now hold (power+vol down)....or repeat what i said above...
hi again mihirengg19
Ok holding power and vol - down together.
after a few seconds the soft buttons flash, screen goes black
I release the power button. Phone Vibrates I release vol - and HTC Quietly brilliant comes back onto the screen. tried this about 30+ times now always same result.
u must be doing something wrong....u should be able to enter into bootloader...

I know, this is what is worrying me, at the current rate the battery will be flat in no time as the screen is on max brightness, is it best to leave it go flat so it turns off completely ?
just tried it another 2 times now, still the same. ? holding down the VOL - (bottom rocker button) still locked on the HTC screen
u can try this-when the phone drains down,plug it into the wall. see if the recovery screen appears...
Did you try via PC and command "adb reboot bootloader" ?

Keep volume down held down.
Which ARHD are you trying to install, 16? Did you update your bootloader to 1.3x?

ok, Hold power down only for 10 seconds, keep holding until the buttons flash and the screen goes black, then release power and immediately hold power down the phone should then boot into fastboot mode
I would also suggest 'adb reboot recovery' from command Prompt while stuck.. Or 'adb reboot bootloader' followed by 'fastboot erase cache'. Maybe reflash boot.img and erase cache again...

Not sure if this will help at all, but in this post you said when the screen goes black you released the power button. Maybe try and hold both buttons down for about 30 seconds to be safe, and if the bootloader still doesn't show up, I don't really know what else to suggest.

SOrry this is a bit late, but i had the same problem and I fixed it after loads of errors.
Just remove your sim card and hold volume down and power till it goes into bootloader!

A bit late.....yeah about 4 months LMFAO !
I've recently got the JB update so I installed it, or atleast tried. Because when I try to turn on my phone again it gets stuck on the HTC logo (White screen).
I think somehow my battery went down during the installation and now I can't access my phone anymore.
It's a clean phone, no costum ROM and I haven't rooted it in any way.
Is there a way to fix my problem? (Preferably withour rooting it.)
I tried holding the power and volume down buttons and then selecting recovery but that doesn't work as I just end up getting stuck on the black screen with the Red triangle.
Regards

Try going into HBOOT
Hold down Power button & volume down buttons together when the phone is switched off. This will take you into HBOOT.
Select Recovery using the volume down button and press power to select it.
Hopefully it is able to recover and re-flash the firmware.

Doh missed that bit Sorry to be of little help. Hopefully someone else can proffer a solution.
if it's an unrooted phone, HTC have been very good at fixing phones bricked during OTA in my experience (2 day turnaround)
When you see the phone with the red triangle before you want to enter the recovery press vol - and the power button.....or at least the vol - button. Can't recreate it as i am on a custom recovery. You will bypass the red triangle and will enter the recovery. Maybe a cache wipe wil do, or a factory reset !

I've tried the factory reset be just like the normal boot it gets stuck on the HTC logo.
Clearing the cache might work but doesn't your phone needs to be rooted for that?

I cant recall if wiping cache is an option in the stock recovery !?
One can erase cache using 'fastboot erase cache' after getting the phone to restart in fastboot mode. See here and go to the 'Try this first' section. Hope this helps.

Sounds like hboot version problem with JB upgrade, what version of HOX you have? what version of hboot? , maybe we can unlock your phone and recover the system with custom rom and then rollback to stock rom.

I am having a problem with my phone. I installed CM 11 on it via TWRP 2.6.3 but for some reason the flash didn't workout well and the phone was stuck in the boot animation. The problem is now I am not able to access bootloader because of a faulty vol down button. Before it would work some time, but now have tried it several times but can't do any thing. It just recognizes the power button press and turns the phone on and it gets stuck in bootloader. How do I get in recover to solve this problem.
Any advice?

Wow, that is a really long sentence!
Seriously, if the screen comes on, its not bricked.
But you also haven't provided enough info. Is the phone modded, or stock. And if modded, is it running a custom ROM, s-off or s-on?
I had a problem with the phone not booting after switching to ART. I wiped cached and rebooted, and it started up fine.
its stocked man had the phone for only 3 days now
Boot into recovery, wipe cache and reboot.
how can i boot into recovery by pressign and holding volume up and power? i did that already and it restarted optimized apps again for like 10 minutes and got stuck in the same error again would realy apreciate some help
please help guys
Press and hold Volume up + Power for 10seconds, when the screen goes dark, immediately press volume down + power. That'll take you into bootloader.

That button combo just forces a reboot.
Do as suggested in the last response. Once in bootloader, use vol keys to highlight recovery, and power button to select. Once you see the red triangle (stock recovery screen) hit power + vol to show the recovery menu. There you will see an option to wipe cache.
Phone gives error reports when booted Help my HTC One m8 went ballistic after I tried to install lollipop. For reference I have a sprint (unconnected) Htc One m8 Harmon Karman edition with Ł launcher as a launcher. I went to settings and found an update. The update download and then installed. When the phone went to boot it booted then instead of taking me to the home screen, it took me to a white page with a loop of error reports of apps not working. I can't get into the phone at all. I tried to boot in recovery but that did nothing. Please help I'm desperate. The pictures show examples of the errors I get them for different apps and hitting buttons to send reportso does nothing but give another report. Please help fix this.

What does that mean exactly? Can you get into bootloader? Do you get a red triangle when you select recovery from bootloader?
Hold power and vol up for several seconds to force a reboot. The moment the screen goes dark to reboot, let go of those buttons and just hold vol down until the bootloader screen appears.
fixed

If you can't get into bootloader (but can force a reboot), its because you didn't do the button combo correctly. Either you started pressing vol down too late, or let go of it too early.
Bootloader will always work as long as the screen comes on.
