Can you get into fastboot? You get there by pressing and holding first back and then power button.

as i said before, it shows only the image above on every key combo

turn it off, plug it in via usb, hold back and power
if you know where your fastboot.exe is then cd into the path in cmd.
if you don't then unzip my attachment and put it in your c:\ and type these commands
Code:
cd\
fastboot devices
if it gives back a serial then it is not bricked and you can flash a RUU

It will likely not give a signal back on fastboot devices, as it isn't in fastboot, but it wouldn't do that in hboot mode either so you can't use that info for anything.
I've seen a couble of these, and you should still be able to flash a ruu. If it's a gsm desire(you should have a sim-card), download and run the following ruu while it's connected: http://www.htcdev.com/process/legal_download/152(the ruu is the .exe file inside the .rar)

FYI, when it's in that state it is booted in RUU mode, which is pretty much the same as fastboot.
if you don't believe me, plug your phone in while booted into a rom and type
Code:
adb reboot oem-78
fastboot devices
fastboot getvar boot-mode

well, congratulations on following bad advice which has got you in an even worse situation... Nothing much you can do. You're S-ON, and you have an un-overwritable RUU (unless a newer one comes out). Can try to flash it again but whether that works is anyone's guess.

Why it doesn't boot now? What's wrong

Good question.. that could be anyone's guess!

can't get into recovery mode.
when switch on the power button or power+vol down
it goes like this.
send to HTC service???

These are the details we need:
1) Rooted / s-off?
2) What was the last thing that happened before it stopped working?
3) What android version / ROM is being used?
4) Does Hboot (Vol down+power) or fastboot (Back+power) Work when your phone is off?

Did you actually flash a radio? If so, which one? How did you do it? Fastboot?
Can you hboot / fastboot after battery pull? Remove battery 5 minutes then try again?

Does it go straight to the HTC screen when you try to get into fastboot?
If so, when you try to get into fastboot and HTC screen comes up, please connect to PC and run
Code:
fastboot devices
And let me know if your device is picked up...

now if i plug the usb it shows the same black screen with HTC logo

after i downgrade so can i flash this rom? (sebastian15)
i don't know what's RUU?
ps. when i run fastboot my phone isn't in fastboot screen it's on black screen with HTC logo.

hey, yesterday i had same problem. just wanted to go to stock rom and i stucked on same screen. and windows didn't see my sd card. so what i did:
booted to linux ubuntu, somehow linux saw my sd card, with gparted i deleted all partitions and reformated sd card. when i downloaded android flasher 2.2 i gues and flashed original bootloader from alpharev.nl, and flashed rocovery img. when i started official ruu 2.3 and everything went fine. now i am on original rom and have working phone . but i think that main problem was cm7r2 hboot. so i think you just need to flash original hboot and run ruu rom. ruu rom you can get from second or third thread in development section. good luck.

[Q] I can't enter in recovery !

I won this phone in a little competition, the phone is not new (I don't know anything of it) , I want to root, but when I enter in bootloder is see this :

Soo, what i have to do...? or how can i put all default (stock).

You are S-Off with no recovery. Just flash one from fastboot and flash a ROM from there. Instructions in the Ace Think Tank thread linked in my signature.

No. glevitan's guide in post #7 has a section about being S-Off with no recovery.

sorry I read all in that post but I can't find .... please help :|
I try to flash the recovery img (using adb) but don't work (no allowed)...... Soo, what i have to do ?
Is not my first root but this is different :|

The linked PDF guide...? There's a section around page 8 or 9 that talks about being S-Off with no recovery.

I see this:
But in step 5 the mirror is deleted and i can't download it and in steps 6 and 7 i don't understand .. :| give me a good steps exactly for me ( remember i don't have acces the root, only $), i remain indebted.
Code:
S-OFF with no custom recovery : you need to reflash a custom recovery to be able to flash a custom room again. Follow this steps:
1) Boot in hboot and choose fastboot.
2) Plug the phone to the pc ( you have to see fastboot in red in the phone )
3) Open cmdas admin or terminal as root in the pc.
4) type ( case sensitive ) :
5) wget "link" -no- check certificate
6) Fastboot oem rebootRUU ( that will put your phone in RUU mode, witch black screen with silver HTC )
7) Fastboot flash zip cwm-5.0.2.7-ace.zip (it will send the firt and then flash it)
8) When you see OKAY. Finished (ner the button in the cmd session even if the green bar in the phone is at half way).
9) Fastboot reboot-bootloader.
10) Voila..check and you should have CWM again.

Certainly, your highness. Download a recovery image. Flash it from fastboot. Flash a ROM from recovery. If you want more detail you need to search. The answers are all available.

are you even in hboot??? maybe you should do some research...that is a step by step detailed way on flashing a recovery. Device 101 is your homework.
BTW, MissB is not a Man...at least is what her signature says...:laugh:

the same i try to fastboot :|
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' <6092 KB>...
OKAY [ 1.018s ]
writing 'recovery' ...
FAILED <remote: not allowed>
finished. total time: 1.021s

Is your phone in fastboot mode?? Select it from hboot.
EDIT: I'm done here. Good luck.

it is just allows ruu ROM

According to his statements (on the MID and version) it appears that NO, he did not change to international version.
But I agree, we need more info to be sure. OP should do fastboot getvar all, and post the output (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).
Or just try a different PC. RUU freezing while sending is common, and usually nothing to do with the phone. Win7 and USB 2.0 (not USB 3.0) for the best possibility for RUU to succeed.

Ahh, I missed that. I looked at the screenshot too quickly!

hello guys,
thanks for replies,
below is more info you asked for
-- The phone is going in TWRP because previously, i tried to install a custom ROM [ i forgot which one ]
-- Phone is stuck at htc one boot splash screen
-- if i reset phone by twrp, then after it gets boot up and then i get 'UNFORTUNATE ERROR' and then again it gets restarted and get stuck in htc boot splash screen
-- i am trying to flash ruu in windows 10.1, should I try windows 7 32bit?
Thank you

You don't read what people said above.
1. you need to relock bootloader to run a RUU because you have a S-On device.
command : fastboot oem lock
then reboot bootloader/fastboot
2. run RUU while on bootloader/fastboot
What you need :
A Windows PC with USB2.0 (I never have problem running RUU on Win 10 64 bit)
Latest HTC USB drivers installed - install HTC Sync Manager as it will install the drivers and some needed Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable files
then uninstall HTC Sync Manager but leave other things.
http://www.htc.com/us/support/software/htc-sync-manager.aspx
You also can directly install the latest RUU - http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8-att/news/ instead of the old version

This is not what was asked for. This doesn't tell us much we didn't already know. Aside from confirming that your bootloader is unlocked, and you are s-on.
The proper advice was already given in Post #5 above. You need to relock the bootloader with the following command, in order to RUU: fastboot oem lock

alright, sorry I didnt pay attention,
now when I try to run command "adb devices", I dont see any devices though the device is perfectly installed in windows device manager as " my htc"
also this the screen which i get when I try to turn the phone on

You don't need to run an adb command, you need a fastboot command. Fastboot and adb are related, but very different things:
adb will never run unless in OS or recovery. What you are seeing (adb not connecting) is normal.
Fastboot commands require the phone to be in bootloader-fastboot mode (which you are in during the pic in Post #7 above).

Thank you very much, it worked, problem solv3d

Flashed wrong kernel by mistake

Hi,
I got a little bit of a problem on my head.... I planned to flash CM12.1 on my HOX but i flashed a different boot.img by mistake! Now i cant get the phone into debugging mode and while using hasoonss toolkit it wont see my device cause i cant get it into debugging mode . Any ideas on how to solve the problem? There are a lot of threads inhere about bricked hox but i cant find one talking about the same problem....
Hope i can get some help on this.

if you can get into bootloader then just get the good boot.img and flash it using fastboot flash boot boot.img

When on bootloader/fastboot mode, type

to check connection
if it returns your device serial no, then it is good for you to

You have a newer sets of drivers installed and the installer exits instead of downgrade the version.
Are you sure you are in fastboot mode?
To enter this.
Power off your phone.
Hold Power and volume down button until phone enters a white screen with Hboot written on it.

Now press power button again. The screen should now change to this

Go to device manager and look for the driver. It should look like this ( Android USB Devices, My HTC)
In cmd type fastboot devices.
My cmd returns this.

It was my thought at first. So now we know that htc apparently dropped the support for one x and older devices in their driver pack. Good to know

Making a new layout is something i missed, Mone said ;
Flashing instruction like usual: perform a full wipe with TWRP for new layout, flash the ROM, flash the suggested GApps, reboot into fastboot mode, flash the boot.img exctracted from the ROM.zip, reboot into system, enjoy cm-12.1.
So i wiped the damn thing( ) after making a backup offcourse(which btw doesn't help cuz its screwed...). But i completely missed that i had to make a new layout... But stil i am convinced it can be "unbricked" one way or another.
I basicly follwed all the steps mentioned in this thread; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069904 and it al worked up to the point i flashed the wrong kernel. After that i searched the forum for hours and found some things which could be connected but with a total different view of what my problem is/was(partially solved with your help) and ended up with putting a SOS sign up for help.
