Bricked HTC One S Bootloop into Clockwork Recovery. Cant go into hboot or anything. - HTC One S

So I rooted my phone and installed Clockwork Recovery. I tried installing a new rom and ended up bricked into it, the phone wouldn't boot in and would get stuck on the boot animation. So i tried re-locking the boot loader and flashing back to ruuu, it would not work and give me error messages. I tried to fast boot recovery but that failed to. Also in clockwork recovery my sd card can't be mounted. I tried a few other things and now my phone is stuck in clockwork recovery. I can't go back into hboot and cant booth the phone either. Every time I power it off then back on it goes back into clockwork and I cant do anything there since it cant mount the sd card. Please help.

[Q] cant get into Recovery after Updating FW

i was following this thread to install the ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429953
i applied the PG58IMG.zip from the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1432220 as this was said to be required.
now after i updated the firmware through HBOOT, the phone asked to reboot. but it only stays at the white screen "HTC" and nothing more
all i can do is pull the battery out and put it back in and boot into HBOOT
i want to get into recovery mod to install the ROM i have saved on my SD Card. but like i said i cant get into recovery as once i press "bootloader" it will try to update the FW again. i only can say YES or NO, either one will end up with Rebooting the Phone as my only option. which gets me back into the WHITE SCREEN.
HELP PLEASE!!!
Take the memory card out, boot in to hboot, enter recovery. Reinstall memory card, and deleat the file.
thnx
thx. didnt think of that

Simple when you know how lol.
I learnt it last week
You can also run "adb reboot recovery" while the phone is off. That way you don't have to take the cover off. It also works if you for some reason get stuck (happens sometimes when flashing PG58IMG.zip files) at the HTC splash screen.

I have been searching for hours..and still couldn't find an asnwer..

You haven't searched that bad, if not you would have come across this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396229
Anyway, are you rooted? if you are rooted and did a factory reset then you don't have a Rom in your phone and that is why you are stuck on the splash screen. You even wiped everything, so probably erased usb debugging drivers from the device.
Well, you have these choices: 1) If you still can access your custom recovery (CWM or 4EXT) then you need to put a rom in your sdcard and flash it. You will have your phone back. You can even restore a nand backup and have your system as it was at that time.
2) If you are S-OFF, but can not access a custom recovery, then flash it again and follow option 1)
3) Use a PD98IMG.zip file to flash a RUU in hboot and you will get back. In the link I provided above, you have several links to those files.
In all cases, you will need an sdcard reader or someway to get the files to your sdcard.
Hope it helps....
thanks!!!!

Reboot the phone holding power and volume down until you're into the bootloader screen and then select recovery. Try restoring the backup you made. If that doesn't work go back into recovery, put a rom on the sdcard, and flash it. Then reboot.
i cant get to my sdcard because i cant get to twrp anymore. everytime i have it reboot from bootloader it just goes the htc screen and turns off. :crying:
Reinstall twrp from fast boot.
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium
Yea, try that. After that select reboot recovery from the bootloader not reboot.
omg i got twrp back. wow that scared me thanks.

flashing recovery

Ok guys, im kind of still fresh to the rooting thing.. I came from an inspire 4g and i successfully rooted and installed cwm on it with no problems (i may have gotten lucky lol). I am using the all in one tool kit to root my one x but im having a problem when i get to the flashing the recovery part. When i watched the video, after checking flash recovery his phone automatically booted into recovery. Well, for some reason i cant manage to get mine to boot into recovery in order to flash superuser. Sorry if i short on the details but any help would be greatly appreciated guys.
also, when i try to boot into the bootloader, the touch lights at the bottom of the phone just flash when holding vol down and the power button.
Try again after sometime ! Do a full wipe and try to flash recovery , or go to stock and flash recovery, switch of the phone and try again
ok i got the recovery flashed and everything seems to be working fine now.. but i cant figure how to get adb to run in a command prompt to flash a rom lol

[Q] One Mini Unable to flash recovery "IMAGE UPDATE ERROR"

Hi, I have a unlocked HTC One Mini S-ON, not sure if root is still there.
I had it loaded with One-Hybrid-Rom, which used to work fine.
Whenever the phone runs out of battery and I recharge it, after trying to reboot, I always get bootloader.
I have to reboot boatloader 100 times before I finally get the HTC screen and the Rom boots up.
Once the rom is loaded, the phone works fine.
Also, in bootloader, I can NOT enter recovery. When I select "Recovery", it gets back to the same bootloader screen.
So I tried flashing the recovery partition with all kinds of versions of twrp and cwm.
The phone is perfectly connected with adb, fastboot. I use fastboot flash firmware to try and flash the recovery, but it ALWAYS gives me the same error, it is able to send the file to the phone perfectly, but when it starts writing I get "IMAGE UPDATE ERROR".
I have tried literally everything to get the recovery partition working again, but all fails.
As I said, once the phone is booted up, it is working fine...
Is there a fix for this issue? It is just impossible to reboot the phone 100 times before the rom loads.
Thanks a lot guys.

No one?
No-one willing to help me on an unflashable recovery partition?
Sometimes phone boots into modded OS and runs perfectly, but mostly (99 out of 100 times) it just reboots to bootloader,
unable to enter recovery.
When flashing recovery (I tried all possible recoveries) via fastboot, it connects, but then I get "Failed, image update error"..;
I would really like to use this phone again...
It is S-ON, Unlocked, Hboot-2.21
Thanks.
