Hi, second phone I work on.
Got this:
DREAM PVT 23B SHIP S-ON d
HBOOT-1.33.0010 (DREA21000)
CPLD-4
RADIO-3.22.20.17
This one was a Rogers post-911 so had trouble. Using flashrec, I was only able to flash using their network address and not the recovery.img on the sd card (amonra 1.7).
Well after doing this, I couldnt get into the recovery menu so rebooted to work back from there.
So had to stop working on it and now the phone ran out of battery. Turning the phone back on gives me the ! mark after the splashscreen.
My friend did factory reset but problem persists.
I can boot into fastboot. Not rooted (S-ON) so I can't seem to flash the recovery image.
Any clue?
You'd need to flash an official (signed) ROM.
Thanks for the answer, really appreciated.
So I would only need to flash the signed rom and then boot and then find a way to flash the recovery and root it, right?
Any indications to a signed rom?
Can I still fastboot flash?
If you have paypal, I'll buy you a beer for helping!

I can access recovery, Hboot and flashboot, but no luck getting the phone to boot up past the splash screen, it think it, its the white screen with HTC logo on it
Have you tried a factory reset from recovery, then flashing a custom ROM?

I have tried factory reset from hboot, my cwm recovery, and i cant find a custom rom. I have extracted the rom.zip from my original ruu found on htcdev. I put it on sd card and tried flashing thru recovery and thru hboot. I try doing fastboot, with the system.img and it actually crashes my pc, and when loading thru hboot, i get stuck at parsing .zip
I think you need to ask people who are more familiar with HTC devices. Type "htc rhyme" in the search bar at the top right of this page.

I did, believe me, I have spent hours and days googling, and every similar situation ppl have, the soution doesnt work for everybody, lol, and I just happen to be one of them. My rhyme is an upgraded OTA, from the original stock rom which is an ruu: RUU_Bliss_C_VERIZON_WWE_1.26.605.6_Radio_1.15.00.0816_NV_VZW2.67_release_214911_signed, and when i try running the ruu installer it says; From:image version 2.0.0.134076
To: 1.26.605.6, After 16% PROGRESS, ERROR [155]: UNKNOWN ERROR, The ROM upadate uti;ty couldn't update, please find correct RUU and update again. I dont know what else to do, ive been researching for a while and so now im in the XDA forums asking for help, before i was just searching for anything related to this problem with HTC rhyme, and not much about the rhyme it self is out there for support in these situations, so ive been researching the issue with all htc devices, and even android in general. I'll admit i am a noob at androids, but im actually pretty familiar with OS's and computers period. All help is much appreciated too, so thank you and if you know something i dont, please feel free to let me know where I am screwing up. I can get My CWM on it, and actually before all this, i had CWM touch recovery, somehow i lost it too and had to put the one i have now on it. i also parsed thru hboot my boot.img, and recovery before, , and it said it was successful. when doing system.img thru the PI46img.zip with boot and recovery, it freezes on parsing, and if i fastboot the system.img, it causes my computer to freeze, and i got the system.img from the rom.zip out of this RUU, that i mentioned above. ive done all the wiping from recovery of partitions that ppl had mentioned, and still no luck, and also when trying to flash it thru CWm it always says installation aborted. tahnk s for responding too man, ive noticed most questions with The HTC RHyme, get the shaft....and thats why i feel like im at a deadend, and i dont know if there is some number out there for support in theses situations, because HTC wont help after the bootloader has been unlocked, and it would seem a lil easier having someone walk you through it on either a live chat or over the phone

HTC rhyme recovery prob.
Hi I really need help. I unlocked the boot loader from HTC Dev. Then rebooted the the bootloaderbfrom adb. The fastboot flash recovery. Everything was good until I pushed the mount through adb it gave me an error. Now every time I try a factory reset or try to go to recovery it takes me to the white HTC logo and nothing happens. Please help. The phone is switching on everything is working. I just can't factory reset or go to the recovery.
Hi Friends,

Here i flashed with clockwork mode recovery.
Rooted using:su-3.0.5-efgh-signed.zip
and finally installed CWM v5.0.2.0.There i successfully fully backed up current ROM too.So far everything was fine and now started the scary part.
after that i downloaded MIUI.us_saga_v4_2.11.9_Eng_Deo_ZipA_Signed.zip and flashed with it.Everything went fine and no errors found and i kept whole night assuming it
would take time to get booted up.But i felt some thing is wrong and tried to restore my initial rom back up via CWM.But it restored with no erros but still stopped with HTC logo.
I did wipe date/factory reset,wipe cache partition, and wipe Dalvik cache and flashed CM 7.2 even result is same.And now i cant run adb where it shows no devices in fast-boot screen.
I feel i did a mistake by not using the boot.img in rom. isn't?Further any idea to make my back up work?

used to had that kind of problem...i had to pulled out battery, power + volume button to enter recovery....in recovery re-install the backup......(note: pulling battery is very dangerous as mention everywhere here)
That was a mistake, yes. But if you haven't flashed any boot.img since rooting your phone, I would have expected restoring the backup should have worked.
Or have you flashed a boot.img in between?
1. extract "boot.img" from inside the zip file of the ROM.
2. install the ROM
3. reboot into bootloader and goto fastboot
4. in your PC's command prompt run "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
check this for help http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525100
I'm wondering, how many more threads like this can a forum tolerate. At any given time there are 2 threads like that on the front page of the forum. WTF? Should be THE most asked question since HTC released bootloader unlock - and people didn't learn to read/search yet.
FASTBOOT FLASH BOOT BOOT.IMG
Yes, that includes restoring from backups too. If you read that recovery can't flash kernels - it means IT CAN'T EVER FLASH ANY KERNEL FROM ANYWHERE.
I have a one sv which:
is k2 ul
normally boots only to HTC screen (no quietly brilliant) and stays there till the end of times
shows tampered locked, which i now changed unlocked status (htcdev)
s-on
has twrp recovery on, but swipes fail mostly
flashing roms in twrp recovery show success but result is still HTC logo without being quietly brilliant
can not be ruu-ed beucause the ruus i find are i think older than required
hboot 2.21, radio 1.18 version
s-off fails because tho fastboot recognizes phone, adb doesnt in fastboot mode and in bootloader pc thinks it is not attached (tried xp, 7, 8.1 and many different drivers)
i am not sure if usb debugging was on before the phone crashed
so i can't put an older ruu because of s-on, i can't get s-off because rumrunner and moonshine can't work without adb, and basically that is it.
does anyone PLEASE have any idea what to do?
and yes, the warranty is over and the phone has gone to the warranty twice with bootloop before.
After flashing a rom, did you also flash the boot.img of the rom with fastboot cmd?
Thats necessary, because you are S-on.
And what TWRP is installed?

yes i did.
twrp 2.6.3.2
now i have made such progress that twrp tells me it cannot mount int sd and when booting, phone stays on the htc logo for some seconds and then switches off. i believe i have actually made it worse (didnt think that could happen).
EDIT: so i formatted the storage like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2576897 and it BOOTED
EDIT2: the phone now kind of works IF it boots. half of booting times it just switches off, the other half it switches off and then reboots and works. i think something is still kind of not good but i dont have the b***s atm to poke it more.
thank you all for your potential help.
What rom did you use?
Please also perform a full wipe (without internal/external sd) in recovery under Wipe -> Advanced

it was this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2512742 which is, as i understand, your work, thank you very much, donations will happen when im a tincy bit richer
and i will wipe some time later when im at home and courageous enough.
You can also try to restore this TWRP backup.
great news! today the phone restarted itself and froze on the logo. i tried to start twrp but it froze on that logo too. tried to do a factory reset, which removed the "tampered" sign until next reboot but that was about it.
now i can't reflash twrp or anything at all, with the error remote: image update error. oh please save me again.
Does not sound good.
You can boot into bootloader? Is it locked or unlocked? Did you reflash the recovery to check if you can boot into it?
looks bad indeed.
i can boot into bootloader, which is unlocked. and please specify what do you mean by reflashing the recovery (pardon my stupid brain)
When in bootloader, connect your phone to fastboot and try to flash recovery again.
If you can't get into recovery, i don't know, if there is much i can do for you
fastboot basically tells me to go f* myself with the error "remote: image update error" what ever I try to flash. right now Im trying to find a way to reflash twrp from ext sd. not doing so great
Well, about your country flag i suggest you speak (or you can at least read) russian language.
Go to 4pda.ru and look for the posts of "MikG". He has made zip files, similar to RUU. They are flashed from bootloader/Ruu mode. Maybe they can bring your phone back to life.
I can't tell you how to use this files, because i don't speak russian.
I'll try, thanks.
edit: and it just refuses to cooperate. it kind of does something in bootloader, but still doesnt boot past htc logo or if i try recovery, it stays on teamwin logo. i dont know if im doing something wrong or what... maybe i'll wait for the 4.2.2 hboot 2.21 radio 1.18 ruu then because i really dont know what else i could do.
I have an HTC One M7 (AT&T) 32GB
HBoot 1.56
Rooted, Unlocked, S-On
I was installing cyanogenmod using the cyanogenmod installer paired with the phone installer and it got stuck in the open Android with the little hex ball rotating. I force shut it down and it booted fine. It happened again so I force shut it down again, but this time it boot looped. It boot loops while entering recovery mode, too.
I have scoured tons of the forums and I have tried these so far.
-Cleared the cache.
-Flashed TWRP
-Flashed CWM on Unlocked Bootloader
-Restored firmware with relocked bootloader
-Restored with RUU and RUU exe
Still boot loops when entering recovery and regular boot up.
-I sent it in for a JTAG and should see if the techs were successful by tomorrow.
I'm starting to think my HTC is a read only file system. So desperate since this is my third phone this month after my first one's screen just died and the second one got dropped and destroyed. Any help is seriously appreciated.
maybe u forgot to flash boot.img via fastboot?

Hey guys, I sold my One M8 to my little brother's friend a few months ago. It's Unlocked, S=Off, and SuperCID with the following:
HBOOT = 3.16.0.0000

TWRP V2.7.0.2
Since he's had it, he says he's only flashed Liquidsmooth, MIUI, and the stock rom. He swears the phone was running great for the past month or so on the stock rom. According to him, he hasn't flashed anything in at least a month. Last night, he plugged it up like usualand woke up to the phone completely powered off. When he booted it, it boots normally and soon after unlocking it, it reboots. This has been the case since I received it back from him (to fix). It's stuck in a bootloop that I cannot fix. Shortly after booting the rom (stock), it will reboot.
What I've tried:
Flashing a new rom in TWRP.
Wiping everything in TWRP (including system w/ and w/o the system partition mounted)
Fixing permissions in TWRP
Flashing SuperSu in TWRP (don't ask why, Googled it and someone said it fixed theirs)
All of this just continues to reboot to the same stock rom that it was already on. Shortly after booting, it would reboot as if I'd made no changes, wipes, etc.
So I figured I'd update TWRP. I downloaded TWRP_Recovery_2.8.2.1_M8_CPTB.img and flashed it in fastboot (without using fastboot oem rebootRUU) It was successful (or so it seemed). When I reboot recovery it still shows 2.7.0.2. So I downloaded ruuM8_TWRP_2_7.zip, tried to flash it from fastboot but when I "Fastboot oem rebootRUU" it jumps back to the bootloop so I put it on the ext_sdcard and renamed it to 0P6BIMG.zip. Hboot flashed it successfully but still the version didn't change.
So after all has failed, let's flash the stock RUU......So I grabbed this RUU - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2727831, renamed it to 0P6BIMG.zip and put in on the external sdcard (remember fastboot just kicks me into a bootloop when I fastboot oem rebootRUU). Using the sd card method, It took forever to flash the system partition, extracting and installing about a half dozen times. Eventually everything passed and it prompted me to press power up to reboot. AND IT BOOTS BACK TO THE SAME LOCK SCREEN.....AND REBOOTS AFTER A FEW SECONDS. I've flashed the stock RUU several times now with the same results. It's as if this phone can't flash anything although it acts as if it flashes successfully.
Anybody have any experience with this? Any suggestions are appreciated.
Sounds like emmc is fried. Send it in for repair.

Had one of these where the radio died. Did the same exact thing. Kmsg revealed an attempt to start the radio and the subsequent failure. I got it back to locked (not relocked) and s-on and opted for a replacement from HTC.
I can't relock it. I can't even overwrite TWRP.
