hello.
I tried to test a custom kernel today. So I followed the advice in cyanogenmod's wiki:
If you are developing a kernel, you may find it helpful to delete your boot.img and recovery.img to force booting into fastboot:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
You can then manually boot from your custom kernel and a ramdisk:
fastboot boot <kernel> <ramdisk>
Once you have a working kernel and ramdisk, you can automagically combine them within fastboot:
fastboot flash:raw boot <kernel> <ramdisk>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The erase steps worked happily! But when I reached the boot step:
Code:
% fastboot boot boot_old.img-kernel.gz boot_old.img-ramdisk.cpio.gz
creating boot image...
creating boot image - 5416960 bytes
downloading boot.img...
OKAY [ 1.688s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: ()
finished. total time: 1.689s
And now, no matter what I try, I get:
Code:
Unrecoverable bootloader error <0x00000000>.
Flashing the previous (working) boot.img or recovery-jb-touch.img does not work. After finishing what appears to be a successful flash, the device gets unidentified for some reason. So I can't `fastboot reboot`.
Here is the full output:
Code:
% fastboot devices
015d262e983c120f fastboot
% fastboot flash recovery ../recovery-jb-touch.img
sending recovery (6942 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.961s]
writing recovery...
OKAY [ 3.136s]
finished. total time: 5.098s
% fastboot devices
???????????? fastboot
So every time I flash, I have to manually restart to the bootloader. And hence nothing gets fixed, I'm back to square one.
I understand that unlocking voids the warranty. But I expected the extra functionality to actually work if I follow the correct procedure. I didn't expect things to blow up in my face. The fact that I live overseas and there is probably no Asus tech support around here adds an insult to my injury.
I really hope there is a way to fix this.

You need to flash the correct kernel and such for the tf700, don't flash anything available out there, you are asking for bricking! I suggest to flash back to full stock firmware then start over.

Explaining how this can be done from fastboot would be great. Especially when I can't even make recovery work.
Try flashing NVidia blobs instead of raw images ... AFAIK the TF700 bootloader's fastboot implementation only understands blobs.
You also forget the usb ID. Try this
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 boot boot_old.img-kernel.gz boot_old.img-ramdisk.cpio.gz

I tried with and without the ID.
Is it really damaging if the ID is not included?

No. There were just some bootloader versions which never showed a serial number, just question marks, when issuing "fastboot devices", and then you needed to specify the ID to get anything to work.
The fastboot implementation in the TF700 is a bit strange. I also could not get "fastboot boot ..." to work, but I never erased my boot and recovery partitions. Just flashing blobs worked fine.

TF700 fastboot likes to flash blobs that start with a "-SIGNED-BY-SIGNBLOB-" header, followed by an "MSM-RADIO-UPDATE" header.
Try flashing the TWRP recovery from here (see "Fastboot method"): http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/105

Ive started the same thread erased the recovery it says it writed recovery image but i think the tablet freezes as any command after writing recovery will not work but before that it will an example:
try adb reboot the tablet will reboot
but after writing the recovery image try entering that command and see what happens
guess Im not the only one who has this problem now we need solutions
Edit: I just remembered I had plan to use Ubuntu to write recovery image see if you can flash ubuntu as the files are on SD rather then on tablet
also skythra had a similar problem he/she said that the fastboot unlocker for jellybean you cannot write you can only read and boot
I also want to ask you have a 64 GB as well?

Same as the OP. Flashing looked like it succeeded. The device gets unidentified in fastboot after that. Manual restart. And choosing recovery shows the same error.
It looks like the only options left are:
1] fastboot flash -- I don't know where to get an update.zip that works with this.
2] fastboot flashall -- I don't know how this command works as it doesn't take any arguments.

Assuming you meant fastboot not adb. This is true. The device gets unidentified (see `fastboot devices` output). Whether the freeze is caused by the unidentified device, or both symptoms are caused by something else, I don't know.

Hi, am looking for the stock recovery file/zip p[ease.
The stock recovery is contained in the full firmware download (inside the blob), available on the Asus support site.

I got the firmware and extracted the blob, but I only have fastboot, how do I flash it to get stock recovery back?
I tried this:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash staging blob
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system blob
but nothing works, except I lost /system partition now (I was able to boot Android before). Any help appreciated.

Thanks anyway for helping. All I could figure out is that the blob doesn't actually get written to any partition. I've seen some users be successful doing that (what you suggested), so I'll keep trying, maybe reverting the driver. Wondering if using naked driver works well for such method.
In any case, thanks, and I'll post a reply if I can make it work.

Big progress: blob flashed without a glitch. I was happy until I tried to reboot with fastboot: tablet frozen! Reboot, still no recovery
I guess this is it. Got a nice folding brick now! Will try RMA, but from Cambodia not sure it's worth it. Maybe next month when I'm in France.
Can't believe this happened while tablet is locked! Now I hate Asus for this.

I have asked you to flash the recovery zip, but once done you should boot directly into the recovery, don't boot up. Let me know if you still can fastboot the recovery to your device, but once done, hold the power until device turn off, then right away hold both power button and volume down button to boot into recovery. If you could do this we still have hope. Once in recovery let me know we can proceed to next step.

I cannot actually do anything past flashing a blob. the tablet is "frozen" from the moment it enters fastboot, then after flashing any blobs, any further fastboot command are "non-responsive", here is the actual output. At the end the reboot command succeeds but nothing actually happened on the tablet. Still showing the 4 icons (RCK/Android/USB/WIPE) and the top white text.

Seems like when you flashed the blob file it wipe out everything. But I tried to boot into recovery so it's a good sign that your tablet is not brick ....yet!!
Here is the stock kernel I created for you http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?16fji3z1nghr6th

Possible we may need the bootloader too, but will see.

Nothing has changed. Just to give you more info, booting RCK, results in booting failed - unrecoverable bootloader error (0x000..).
Booting android: cold-booting linux - signature match. Then screen is frozen, but Windows 7 recognize the tablet fine. As if a kernel was there, right?
So I tried flashing boot.blob and recovery.blob and the JB update blob to system again, but it hangs at the end, still have to reboot manually. It's like fastboot is not actually flashing anything, writing in below output is abnormally low or could it be that fast!?: It's the same time for boot, recovery of a 800Mb system file!?

Actually how do you flash bootloader? I did this: fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash bootloader loader.blob ?
But anyway, I just read fastboot doesn't flash anything when device is locked! So this piece of s**t doesn't flash but will erase any partition you wish! How's that for a crappy software! I wish I never tried to update to JB!

No ADB, just the name of the tablet appears in Device Manager, sort of the SD card access, but no actual access. I updated the driver manually and was proposed some MTP device. No adb or fastboot when this is available.
Here is the input from another thread: I copy it because I believe the information is very important and identify another way to brick the TF700:
Pretoriano80 said:
ICS bootloader had the fastboot option disabled if the device's bootloader was still locked and the USB icon wasn't showing at all.
With the JB bootloader Asus made the USB icon available even if the device was locked so you can access fastboot mode but you can't flash anything (yes,it doesn't make sense, but this is Asus).
Anyway, if you are able to boot in recovery you should be able to restore you device easily,just follow my guide from the general forum.

That's exactly what's happening! I can go in fastboot, but it doesn't flash anything! Though it erase any partition you wish! How smart is that? So I have one thing to say to locked owner: never go in fastboot, ever, it's useless and can actually brick your tablet!!!
I bricked the tablet on my own sure enough, but without this ridiculous fastboot I wouldn't have been able to mess up the tablet in the first place! Sorry for those who love their tablet and Asus, but I find their strategy ridiculous. Except if it's main goal is to make money on RMA.
Thanks Asus for this nice brick!

I'd still expect the locked bootloader to flash correctly signed blobs. But who knows what Asus were thinking...
One more idea you can try: Get the 10.4.4.23 dlpkgfile and extract the blob from there.
This blob contains the 10.4.4.23 bootloader, stock recovery and stock kernel, and an orignal Asus signature. My WW version is 13573093 bytes, so it is much smaller than the full firmware blob - try to flash that via fastboot, maybe you are lucky and it works.

Will do, thanks. How would you flash such blob? Onto "staging" or "system"? I've seen users flash the JB update blob to system and be successful. Also seen some posts mentioning staging?

I don't really know - all I know is:
- TF700's fastboot implementation only supports blobs, no raw partition images
- blobs are usually always written to the staging partition first, then the contained partition images are flashed to the correct partition(s) by the bootloader
I've seen both variants of the fastboot command, so maybe the target partition doesn't matter when sending blobs. I'd try staging first.
I flashed HPSGill's rom on Friday which is Sense 5 themed, It didn't boot up. So I went back to recovery, wiped everything down, and proceeded to flash the stock ROM. The RUU installation failed, giving me a 150 Error. I have used the same RUU for a year now. I then tried running some fastboot commands but most of them give me "REMOTE: NOT ALLOWED".
The phone goes into fastboot mode as when I execute "fastboot devices" i see my phone serial number on the command line. I can't however access adb. On removing the cable it takes me to the bootloader white screen, only now, the options for reboot, reset factory settings, recovery, etc, are not visible.
It just shows me my phone information, bootloader as relocked, and RUU highlighted. I have tried flashing the RUU multiple times, after each flash attempt, all partitions, except the userdata partition shows userdata FAIL-PU, which as I understand is the partition update failing, bootloader shows - BYPASSED. I have also tried downloading the same RUU just in case somehow the one I had was corrupted. But same result.
HTC service center says since I have rooted my phone, I will have to pay 6000 rs. for a 7000rs. phone to get it repaired. Is there any way back from this ? I have sent it to the service center and will get it back tomorrow, So I can only post screenshots if needed tomorrow. I have scoured the internet for the solution and I have read some odd success stories, but none of them for the explorer, mostly for desires. Any help appreciated.
I will be trying bortak's guide in the meanwhile which is again for htc desire.
Well from what I get so far you're stuck in the middle of a bad RUU flash, idea is you need to complete an RUU flash before you can do anything else, from this I get only try flashing several times this RUU or try with some another RUU else, if there is no fastboot this is hard to be fixed, try sending pm to @legen_dary , he experimented for a while to find some s-off way, so he should know a little bit more about this stuff. I'll continue the search, if find something will share, you also, do share what have you discovered, and if something works what is it.

Thanks for the reply. As I mentioned, the moment i connect the phone via the USB cable, it automatically goes into fastboot mode as when i run "fastboot devices", my device shows up. So I'm considering, not all hope is lost. I have to get to work, will be getting my phone back today, will experiment some and get back here at night.
forgot to mention a couple of things.
1. the bootloader shows relocked. On running the fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin, the command completes successfully but the bootloader still shows relocked. And because it constantly shows relocked, I'm not able to install a custom recovery as well.
2. tried putting the rom in the RUU on sdcard and renaming it as PBsomething.zip. but it wont read the sd card. So flashed it manually via fastboot flash zip zipname.zip runs upto a certain point then gives me something like this
RUU: "FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)" So I tried reflashing it, but keeps giving the same error.
So since the sd card is not being read at all, I guess bortak's method of creating a goldcard goes out the window.
Hmmm.. This is the second such case i've seen..
Have you tried getting the unlock token again from htcdev??
Also, try updating your hboot version...
Or, get any hboot from an ruu, and do a
Code:
fastboot boot hboot.img
If it wrks, you'll atleast be able to unlock the bootloader, and put a recovery on it..
If, however, your original bootloader remains locked, then you wont be able to access the recovery as well..
In fact, it wouldnt go past the hboot...

Edit : The correct filename is pj03img.zip(or something)..
When the phone first starts in the hboot, you should see a series of filenames, along with "not found" errors.. If you do, then it does scan the sdcard...

He's unable to unlock the bootloader so it's impossible to flash a custom recovery
You can't use fastboot boot or fastboot flash with a locked bootloader. Can you get into HBOOT mode by holding volume down and power while switching on the device? Or does it go straight into FASTBOOT mode?
i tried
1) unlocking bootloader, and now its unlocked.
2) fastboot getvar all gives me
(bootloader) version: 0.5

(bootloader) hbootpreupdate: 12
(bootloader) gencheckpt: 0
all: Done!
finished. total time: 0.032s
3) fastboot oem boot boots up the phone and is now stuck in a bootloop. gives me the htc jingle and restarts. tried pulling the battery and volume down + power combination to get to the hboot menu, but brings me back to the black htc screen with 4 triangles. At least there is some progress. Now I somehow just need to get that menu back that comes up after the volume down + power combination.
4) tried fastboot oem resetRUUflag and it gave me this -
...
(bootloader) [ERR] Command error !!!
OKAY [ 0.007s]
finished. total time: 0.009s
5) tried fastboot boot hboot.img with the boot.img from the RUU
it gave me -
creating boot image...
creating boot image - 788480 bytes
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.263s]

Can you get into recovery?
The boot.img file is the kernel bro.. Not the hboot..
The file you're looking for is hboot -something-something.img

@sachin thomas - No I can't get into recovery
@legen_dary - hboot_1.03.0000_30d3dcb5_1129_signed this one right ? i just renamed it to hboot.img to avoid typing or copying the whole name
EDIT : i find this flag out of place . (bootloader) boot-mode: RUU. should it be RUU ? i think this is the one causing all the problem, though of course i may be wrong.

You can't boot from a signed HBOOT image because it's a plain binary file and not an android boot image. As you have unlocked the bootloader try fastboot boot with any recovery.img file (CWM or TWRP)

i did that when i got my nand burned after installing cm10 beta 6. But AFAIK and as far as I understand, i need to place the flash_erase file into system/xbin. I am right now stuck in recovery. How am I supposed to do it from there ? is there a flashable zip for it which will run the commands via recovery ?
EDIT : this is FAR better than i expected. since I'm in recovery, adb devices spits this out -
adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *

Mount your SD card in recovery and place the file in the root of the SD card. Now, if you have TWRP you can use its file manager to move it into system/xbin and set permissions to 755
If you have CWM you can type the following in adb shell:
cd /
mv /sdcard/flash_erase /system/xbin
cd system/xbin
chmod 755 flash_erase

Oh, the xbin folder should have got deleted when you formatted system. I don't think you can't get rid of the HTC screen without successfully flashing an RUU. Our aim is to get rid of bad blocks which prevents the RUU from getting flashed
Are you sure that it ran without errors? Move it into /system and change permission to 755 and re-run it before attempting to flash another RUU
So hello! I need some help here. A friend of a friend gave me this oneplus one for repair and at first it seemed easy cause i thought oh it's only a softbrick. There is a bootloop and I can access the original recovery and Fastboot. Now when I followed the unbricking guides I could not clean install CM12S because appereantly the bootloader is not unlocked but do I need to have an unlocked bootloader to install a clean signed version of CM12S?
I am trying to solve the issue with bacon root toolkit 1.0.3. I put the OPO into fastboot mode and click on "back to stock", select a signed fastboot version cm12.1s and my device is detected as a fastboot device. But now i get these weird error codes in command prompt
" FAILED (remote: Device not unlocked cannot flash or erase)" and then just another bootloop.
So I tried to unlock the bootloader with the command "fastboot oem unlock" and it does something but then when i check it with "fastboot oem device-info" it displays
"(bootloader) Device tampered: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
(bootloader) Display panel:
OKAY [ 0.007s]
finished. total time: 0.008s"
hmmm.. so it does not unlock the bootloader but what does device tampered mean?
How do i unlock the bootloader and ultimately unbrick this device?
any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi
Trying to help.
Your device might be tampered as the "fastboot oem device-info" result shows.
Follow the steps and see if it helps (all commands below are to be entered without quotes)
1. Download latest cm13 nightly or the cm12.1-snapshot and extract the "boot.img" from it.
2. Connect the phone in fastboot mode and check connection by "fastboot devices."
3. Enter the command "fastboot flash recovery boot.img" (the one extracted above).
4. Then enter "fastboot format cache".
5. After the boot.img is flashed, enter "fastboot reboot" to reboot the phone and the let the phone boot fully to homescreen. If stuck on bootscreen( i assume rom is not tampered with) try entering stock recovery and clear cache and dalvik-cache.
6. Now again enter bootloader by reboot or using combo and check connection by "fastboot devices".
7. Now enter "fastboot oem unlock".
8. Now check "fastboot oem device-info".
It should be unlocked like:
(bootloader) Device tampered: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: true
Please do reply if it helped.

Thanks for the reply! I tried the steps but sadly it did not work.
I downloaded cm13, extracted it to my fastboot.exe folder and did enter the commands.
"c:\unlock>fastboot devices
9c50d771 fastboot"
So my device does show up which means drivers are properly installed aren't they?
"c:\unlock>fastboot flash recovery boot.img

sending 'recovery' (7254 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.232s]
writing 'recovery'...

There is the error message again, I can't flash the stock recovery becaue the bootloader is not unlocked I think but I don't know what else to do.
then:
"c:\unlock>fastboot format cache

I did that too, I can't tell if it formatted cache or not, I dunnoooo

I have looked into that but how do I flash it?
I tried the commands "fastboot boot -image file-" but it says i cant do that cause once again the bootloader is locked
then there is "fastboot boot recovery -image file-" but then it says " cant find directory" or something like that..
could you please give me step by stepe instruction how you solved the issue?
I am getting very frustrated here.. beginning to think it's unsolveable.
sadly i can't boot into a custom recovery :C

You flash this zip in a custom recovery like any other mod. Luckily for me I still had my twrp installed so I managed to do it, but you should be able to temporarily boot from it. Is your custom recovery image in the active directory?

I tried that too.. Spoiler.. it did not work.
The drivers seem to work. I have my windows 10 set to testmode. The OPO is recognized by the Msm8974DownloadTool,, when I click on "start" the bar moves to 3/4 of the bar but then something happens and I get a "sahara" message". I tried it maybe over 10 times now. Sometimes it shows me the message immediately. Sometimes the green bar gets to 1/4 of the bar and then the "sahara" message. But sometimes the bar gets to 4/4 one time and then it says "(somethinsomething)usb(somethingsomething in chinese i guess)" and thats it. Only bootloop as a result. Maaaaan this is getting annoying.
I think where something might have gone wrong was trying to use a toolkit. Try this:
Download latest fastboot images from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/official-cm11s-roms-ota-updates-t2906746
Then go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guides-bacon-timmaaas-how-to-guides-t2839471
Scroll down to #8 and follow the instructions to flash all of the images using fastboot. Hopefully, you will be able to boot the phone after that. Good luck!

Thanks for the reply and trying to help! but as I stated in the title my bootloader is LOCKED so i can't write anything to it. The guide of Heisenberg states clearly "Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader." so I knew it would not work but I tried it anyway.. sadly it did not work.. this is what it's giving me:

funny thing is, it's "only" a softbrick but behaves like a hardbrick. I can't do anything and I don't know what to do at this point.

I will try the ColorOS hardbrick method on a virtual XP machine and report back.
I tried it on a virtual XP machine but i can't get to mount the OPO, i get this error message.. now the first sentence is german and its says " the usb device Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM QHSUSB__BULK could not be mounted on the virtual mashine windows xp."
"Das USB-Gerät Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM QHSUSB__BULK konnte nicht an die virtuelle Maschine windows xp gebunden werden.
USB device 'Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM QHSUSB__BULK' with UUID {cdedf1ad-9235-40ef-80cf-efc72ba7678c} is busy with a previous request. Please try again later."
I don't even know if it's worth the effort trying to find a XP system and try it.. my hopes that it would work are very low at this point.. please let me know if you know a solution to this nightmare.

When you do a fastboot oem unlock does it reboot you back into recovery?
I used HighOnAndroid's guide to unlock bootloader, flash a custom recovery, and root.

Why don't you flash firmware in unlocked bootloader, if possible ( please refer in the forum, as i think there's a way to flash firmware and then you can unlock bootloader )
Go to an independent repair shop. They have the equipment to flash on the motherboard.
I've tried everything, Windows and Mac, standalone adb and fastboot as well as full SDK version, different USB ports, and I'm at a loss on what to do.
I got a Hong Kong version U11+ (CID: HTC_622, Asia-HK-CHT)
Whatever I do every time I try to boot via the fastboot boot command in bootloader mode it seems to work at first and then nothing, just a black screen.
The terminal output seems to indicate all went well and yet that's not the case:
fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1-2_unofficial-ocm_2.img

Any clue on what is happening?
Exactly the same is happening for me when I just try and boot it rather than flash it. I'm on the Chinese variant of the phone with Chinese firmware. I get exactly the same message on adb (successfully booted) but just a black screen on the phone.

How did you do ? rebooting is not as simple as we think ,
afaik, fastboot boot does not work anymore on recent HTC devices , so you have to flash it in order to boot into twrp

Oh, well that makes sense! Thanks.
Does anybody know if RUU.zips contain the stock recovery too? As well as everything else needed to get the phone back to stock?

Hi. I have the same phone but my max download size is 2399200000. Is there any reason why yours is lots higher than mine? I tried flashing a RUU and I keep getting messages saying file size larger than device limit. Is there a way we can change this max download limit? Thanks.
¡ I need help please !
I have a HTC Desire 10 pro (From Aliexpress, yes warranty avoid), it was working fine (more than a year) until a few days ago. One morning I took it and it was off but the notification led was not on despite charging. I tried to turn it on and enter to recovery but it was not responding. I decided to open the phone to remove the battery and verify that it was not damaged. Mysteriously the battery was in good condition, and once I removed it and plugged it back in, the phone responded again when connecting the USB and the charger.
But there is a problem, when the system is going to boot, after showing the HTC logo, the phone turns off together with the notification led and returns to the state in which I found it at first.
I removed and placed the battery again so that it would respond again, but now I entered to recovery to make a reset, but the problem is that the recovery is very outdated, so it does not have the "wipe data" options.
It should be said that i can enter into a "recovery mode" that shows:
"
hTC download mode
*** LOCKED ***
htc_a56dj_pro_dtwl PVT S-ON
LK-1.01.0000(8804eff8)
RADIO-UNKNOWN
OpenDSP-UNKNOWN

reboot to bootloader
reboot to download mode

Security Warranty
If you flash this phone with any ROM
that was not officially released by HTC
you take the risk of
releasing your personal and financial
information to unknown sources.
SD NOT MOUNTED
OTG NOT MOUNTED
FILE NOT FOUND
"
Where the blue txt is the actual menu.
In this "recovery mode" I can't use ADB commands, i only can execute some fastboot commands (PC recognizes my device because of fastboot drivers) as "reboot", but for example:
* I can't use the "erase" command because my current recovery is not supported:
"
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot erase userdata
erasing 'userdata'...
FAILED (remote: Partition userdata erase not supported)
finished. total time: 0.022s
"
* Nor I can directly install the TWRP recovery because it tells me:
"
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
target reported max download size of 1596000000 bytes
sending 'recovery' (14320 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.507s]
writing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) HOSD CL#929341
FAILED (remote: 9 RU_SECURITY_FAIL recovery and bootloader isn't BL_UNLOCKE)
finished. total time: 2.550s
"
* And I can't use the "oem unlock" command either because it just says:
"
...
(bootloader) [ERR] Command error !!!
OKAY [ 0.062s]
finished. total time: 0.062s
"
Finally "getvar all" command shows this (i think could be useful):
"
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot getvar all
(bootloader) kernel: lk
(bootloader) product: htc_a56dj_pro_dtwl

"
Well, this is the situation, and i think the solution is:
Install the TWRP recovery to do a factory reset and if necessary install a ROM (official or not).
Buuut, to install the recovery I need to activate USB debugging (MANUALLY in the android options) and activate the OEM unlock option to unlock the bootloader, which is impossible for me since the phone "turns off" before starting.
My question is:
How to activate OEM unlock option without having to access to android settings? I mean, with commands in fastboot or in some software.
I have searched a LOT on the internet and I can't find anything about it, all the tutorials have the device fully functional, not like me that my device does not start.

Ok so you was saying you need a command right to type into linux shell. But hold on did you put a custom rom onto the phone yourself
Also, if your phone randomly stopped working by its self, our issues may be related........

What was the last thing you done on your phone?
The last setting you changed?
Have you tried turning the phone on with the battery out?

It doesn't work, this just led me to de begining too.
The phone can't start, so maybe re-install his firmware is the best option. I already search the firmware for this phone (to try flash it with SP Flashtool), even here in XDA there is an RUU Collection for this phone, but none of them is compatible with mine. This is the firmware compatible:
2PYAIMG_A56DJ_PRO_DTWL_M60_SENSE80GP_HTC_India_SEA_1.18.400.22_Radio_0.A56DJPV1P32.7900.0216.A56T_release_508642_combined_signed_2_4.zip
but is only available to buy... here for example:
2PYAIMG_A56DJ_PRO_DTWL_M60_SENSE80GP_HTC_India_SEA_1.18.400.22_Radio_0.A56DJPV1P32.7900.0216.A56T_release_508642_combined_signed_2_4.zip | Easy Firmware
easy-firmware.com
IDK why this firmware is not in other pages .
Reinstall stock firmware so you can boot into system. Then follow instructions to unlock with unlock code
