HTC One M8 Root failed - Australia

Hi there,
I have just tried to root my HTC one, and I am now stuck in the boot loader screen and it is showing *Tampered* at the top.
Can someone please advise me, or point in the direction of what I need to do now?
Thanks.

If it says tampered it should say unlocked right below it.... go to this site and follow the instructions to get full root. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2699065

Once you have unlocked your bootloader then it will show you tampered.
Download a custom recovery (I prefer TWRP) and flash it via fastboot.
Then download @Chainfire Supersu flashable zip from his site and flash it in recovery.
You have rooted your phone.

Ater placing my device into fastboot mode, I have tried flashing my downloaded TWRP file to my HTC One in Terminal using these instructions:
Now let's flash your downloaded TWRP file to your HTC One. Type one of the following commands into your terminal window, depending on which file you downloaded above.
For the International editions, type:
fastboot flash recovery Desktop/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.2-m8.img
However I get the following error:
command not found
any help would be most appreciated.

Did you setup your mac to use adb / fastboot commands?

hi,
plz try CWM, M8 got some issues with twrp.
philz_touch_6.26.6-m8.img is the stable version plz try that.
http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/m8

So I am starting to move forward :
I have followed the instructions to install philz_touch_6.25.5-m8.img by flashing it to my HTC where I get the setup screen for philz_touch_6.25.5-m8.img. I cleared the cache and I then installed the UPDATE-SuperSU-vx.xx.zip using the install zip from sdcard and then rebooted the HTC.
Unfortunately I have come back to the bootloader screen.
For what the instructions say it should be working now, but it does not seem to be?
Now it seems that whatever I try I cant seem to get past the bootloader....
And when I power down from the bootloader, It shuts down for a few minutes and then boots back into the bootloader.
Not sure what to do now?

is your problem similar to this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2784232

May be you are using the wrong version.If you have international device you should try international version of philz/cwm recovery.I would suggest you to use TWRP since it is basically meant for htc devices.

Why am I getting this "FAILED (remote: image error! (BootMagic check fail))" error message all the time?

Flashing to stock Android NPD90G from TWRP error: "remote: unsupported command"

Flashing to stock Android NPD90G from TWRP error: "remote: unsupported command"
Fixed flashing error "remote: unsupported command" when flashing a Pixel C back to stock
I used TWRP and SuperSU to root and modify the buildprops to enable and get an early look at the windowing in Android N beta on my Pixel C release 5 ahead of time.
When Release 5 NPD90G was available I decided to flash back to stock from Developer Preview 4 NPD56N rooted with SuperSU and flashed with TWRP. I like root - I run Ubuntu and Win 7. I don't mind running a rooted device if it doesn't have all my work and financial data. When the final N release is out, the Pixel C will become my work machine. It's almost there.
I'm naturally paranoid. I change my long passwords frequently and use 2 factor authentication for everything. So if I can, I'll take a stock release. See my instructions for wiping Android devices: How to wipe an Android Phone: the paranoid editon
I could not flash the NPD90G stock bootloader because of an error "remote: unsupported command"
Here's how I fixed it.
Updated the SDK manager including SDK Tools and USB drivers.
With the Pixel C in recovery mode, {hold the power key and volume down}
In TWRP mount System and reboot to recovery
>ADB Shell.
From ADB Shell I ran
>fwtool vbnv write dev_boot_fastboot_full_cap 1 to reenable Fast boot.
Then I changed from TWRP to Fastboot mode {power button plus hold the volume up button}
>fastboot erase userdata
>fastboot erase boot
>fastboot erase cache
>fastboot erase recovery
>fastboot erase system
See Note 1. Below
>fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-dragon-google_smaug.7900.27.0.img
>fastboot reboot-bootloader
>fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-dragon-google_smaug.7900.27.0.img
>fastboot reboot-bootloader
Note 1.
The first time through I flashed the following line items which resulted in the resting robot Andi. I don't think I needed to do this, but if the above instructions don't work, run the following before continuing for {flash bootloader bootloader-dragon-google_smaug.7900.27.0.img}
>flash bootloader bootloader-dragon-google_smaug.7900.27.0.img
>fastboot reboot-bootloader
>fastboot reboot-bootloader

It's nice of you to help a fellow XDA user. But I suspect he's already solved his problem of three months ago.....

Hi guys
I have the same problem:
- the bootloader is unlocked (Coreboot menu says so)
- fastboot says "secure: yes" but "unlocked: yes" too
- "fastboot flashing get_unlock_ability" returns "1"
- "fastboot flashing unlock" says that the bootloader is already unlocked
But I have no recovery and if I try to fastboot boot recovery.img it fails with signature verification error
Can I do something to unbrick the device?
Regards

My solution is very simple:
fastboot flashing lock
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot reboot
And now let it boot.... and wait.
After the (failed) reboot check again: Now you can write all partitions... worked with my Pixel C

Make sure you have the latest version of fastboot and adb. I get these errors almost every month if I don't update.

@stevep2007, thank you so much! I've been dealing with this "remote: unsupported command" nonsense for days now after trying to revert back to an older Oreo version of Lineage. This did the trick!

How can I solve the problem when my Pixel C is not unlocked? My Pixel made an update and after installing the Update I got the green little man. Now I have no Chance to activate USB debugging etc. Its also not possible to install twrp.img
How can I go to ADB shell with locked bootloader? Or isn't it possible?
Fastboot devices shows me my tablet. ADB devices also show my tablet with "sideload".
But every try to flash my Pixel fails. I alway get the message .... remote: unknown command.......fastboot error: command failed
flash-all.bat showes that all "*.img are missing" error: command failed... unknown command etc.......
So any idea to get my Pixel working again? ADB shell would make it I think. But how with locked bootloader.

All drivers (ADB, Fastboot, Google etc.) are installed and are up-to-date. Bootloader is unlocked and it seems BL reacts the same way like BL is locked.
System is not booting and recovery won't boot too. Is there any way to get an adb shell in another way?

Were you able to solve that?
FWIW, the state you're describing is not unheard of and requires to use the fwtool (reference, for example, here). But that, in turn, requires you can have TWRP installed... because with the bootloader in this limbo state, it also refuses to load TWRP on the fly using "fastboot boot ..."

Question [Solved] Stuck in fastboot with locked bootloader

HI there!
After multiple problems with the custom ROMs I tested, I finally decided to go back to the stock ROM by downloading it from the official thread. I extracted the .tgz archive, run the "flash_all.bat" program, which failed by saying it failed to check the sparse CRC.
So I looked for a solution and finally commented out the line that sent the CRC files to the device at the beginning. The flashing worked fined, but after rebooting I'm now stuck in a bootloop.
I entered fastboot by holding Volume Down + Power and got into it without problem, but when I tried to flash TWRP to install something else, I got the "FAILED (remote: 'Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error')" and after checking, it seems that my bootloader has been re-locked!
So I'm now stuck in fastboot, both the Global and EEA roms won't work, and I can't flash an alternative recovery.
What can I do?
Thanks in advance for your help!
EDIT: I ran the official MiFlash Unlock tool, which tells me my device is unlocked, which is really weird. The "fastboot oem device-info" command indicates: "(bootloader) Device unlocked: true".

Don't flash recovery. Use this command instead:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
and it will boot into recovery. Then you can install recovery ramdisk.

I tried that but it didn't work.
EDIT: After re-trying several times, I was finally able to make it work by booting with ArrowOS' recovery. TWRP was not accepted, but ArrowOS' one was
So I've been able to flash the Xiaomi.EU rom, I'll stick with it for now.
