[Q] Lost my OS on my HTC ONE

Hi,
I wiped all my data on my phone when attempting to put a new ROM on it and now I don't have an OS. I have tried flashing a ROM using TWRP sideload and OTG, but get a failed. I hope I can gets some help to fix this problem. Thanks

If you can't find a ROM that will install you can always run an RUU. But I would try to update TWRP or try a different recovery first.

I tried updating TWRP by flashing the img. and now I no longer have a recovery. When I select recovery It goes to the HTC screen like its going into recovery, but then shuts down and then it freezes on the HTC screen.

You better just ruu if you are having partition issues, ruu would be the best bet.

I'm sorry I forgot to mention that I already unlocked using HTCdev. So that RUU is the correct one?

Use the one I linked (the first link of the post)

Look at the link in post #6 by Uzephi.. should help.. I'm assuming you can't get into recovery also?

[Q] I messed up

I was try to take my phone to as close to stock as possible but didn't have a stock recovery. I was trying to get s-off through sunshine but when i tried to go back to stock i downloaded an ing file from here and installed it using flashify and i am assuming it was the wrong one. Now all i get is the red triangle on start up. How do I flash a recovery using a mac or could some one direct me to a video?

forgot
also i was rooted and unlocked if that makes a difference. I was using twrp and viper one rom.

Get fastboot and adb. Download newest twrp img file. Boot to bootloader and click fastboot. Load terminal on Mac and navigate to directory with fastboot and img.
Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Pm me if you need more help.

how do i do that without being able to get in to twrp?

fastboot flash or boot TWRP

Stuck on 4.4.2 or what?

So I got my m8 htcdev boot loader unlocked, with twrp, rooted, S-on, 4.4.2, only to realize that in order to flash ViperRom I gotta update my firmware. Not exactly sure what to do. Any helpful suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Any additional information would be greatly appreciated. What software? Any particular reason you're just not updating via the OTA, 4.4.3 is already out for what, 2 months now? Also, why not do a search for info on how to do firmware upgrades? [2014.09.07][GUIDE] FUU and Firmware flashing

I attempted to do the ota but it didn't show up and for some reason I have to wait 24hrs before checking again. Is it okay to do a stock ota update even though I have a custom recovery with root?

No, you must be stock. Root is fine, you'll lose it though but you can flash it back afterwards. Recovery on the other hand needs to be stock.

Alright. So can I just flash the stock recovery again and it will work?

Correct, assuming you made no other changes to the system, or didn't make changes to build.prop or deleted apps like Facebook, Twitter etc. If all those are "as is" when you got the device then yeah, only flash back stock recovery and you're good to go :good:

Haha alright thanks a ton! I was totally lost with what to do. I just have one last issue. When I attempted to flash the stock recovery through fastboot I got an error about "target max download size" would you possibly know a solution to this?

No, sorry I'm not familiar with that error
Should be interesting though. You got a screenshot of that?
htc one m8 fastboot flash target max download size site:forum.xda-developers.com
Seems to be plenty of hits in there. I'll have to read up on it myself as well :good:

Alright. Could it be possible that the ota was pulled? I read somewhere on an android central thread that AT&T recalled the update because it caused battery problems

[Q] Bricked Verizon M9

My Verizon M9 was rooted with a Java Card. I attempted to install a rom via Twrp recovery. I erased my original rom and restarted my phone. I was unable to go to the recovery mode. I am only able to go to the download mode. What should I do? (boot loop)

You can download stock rom from HTC and start over.

Verizon doesn't provide ROM via HTC website

Did you try reflashing twrp in download mode?

Sorry didn't see that you were with Verizon. Definitely what ielvis said. Try flashing twrp again.

Can't root after marshmallow update

Hi everyone,
I have a dev edition m9. I updated to marshmallow via OTA earlier today. The update is working fine. I flashed TWRP 2.8.7.0 and that's working fine as well. But when I try to root the system, it gets stuck on the HTC logo. I have tried it with SuperSU 2.46 (stable) and 2.52 (beta). Both times, I had to reboot into recovery, wipe cache and restore the system image backup to get my system back in working state. Please help as I need root access. Thanks.

What does that mean?

Your bootloader is the animation when u power on the device watch the videos on YouTube ...just search nexus 5x root there are a few I know its a different phone than u have but the process will be very similar

It talks about flashing a modified boot. I haven't seen any boot image corresponding to the M9.

U said u just got the ota today ,correct?.... Just keep checking in for it ....I'm sure it'll be available in a week or two
Sent from my Nexus 5X using XDA Free mobile app

@bigduke$: That's not really the solution for that problem. The M9 doesn't get rooted the same way the Nexus 5x does.
@slvrhwk: You need to use SuperSU 2.65 and TWRP 2.8.7.1-Beta1. Android M needs system-less root that's why your system didn't boot.
