[Q] soft brick incredibly htc incredible 2 verizon cant run adb in promt to get s-off - General Questions and Answers

ood night, i´m really happy to join this big comunity;
My question is this... severals weeks ago, i got an incredible 2 in verizon (in from Mexico City), i tried to unlock to use it with the mexican carriers, but I thought i would be a good idea to root it and get a nice rom.
I use the fastboot way, but, i forgot to make a backup to the original ruu, so i can not be able to follow as the procedure said.
I've been stuck for a several weeks trying to solve this, reading this and another android (mostly htc foums).
the i got this link from android forums (i´m a new user so i cant post links i can share by inbox ) but my i understand that the adb only can be run in the "normal" mode, i mean without the phone bricked, in this point i got my mobile with this..

i have the recovery clockwork 5.0.2.0 vivow
i know that i cant do too much with the S-ON, neither cant boot any rom, and i tried with fastboot, but the adb command "adb devices" doesnt recognize the phone, the fastboot command is actually working , so i cant do anything though.
i´m not an expert, i spent all these days on google before asking directly in any forum, but i ran out of ideas (and forum theads), i´m just beging a couple of hints.
Thanks for your time and redards from México.

I tryed to flash a custom rom on my droid incredible 2 but i wasn't aware that i needed to unlock s-on to S-off mode, note my phone won't boot. I can run recovery and fastboot. But my phone won't boot, so i can't access adb to install revolutionary to change to s-off. Need help here to. Is there any way to get S-off without adb access?

How to unroot HTC Magic

Hi there
i'm really stuck at the moment and i've been reading threads after threads on this forum and i still couldn't find any solution and no luck with search as well.
my current problem is that i flashed a hero rom (i believe it's called myhero) about half a year ago when i first got it, but now i want to go back to the original Roger rom so that i can update to the new RUU. But i have no luck going back to the original rom at all. Anyone here would like to help?? i dun want to see my data plan go to waste just because of this

PS: i tried many different ways, including unlockr's unrooting method, someone's nandroid wiped roger rom etc, but either htc sync said usb error or my fastboot screen said update failed. please help~
Should work using this method, just apply the update while the phone is in fastboot mode.
i tried that but i never knew i need to go into fastboot mode, i will give that a try, thank you very much

You don't usually need it. But if HTC Sync can't find the phone, you can apply the update trough fastboot. Let me hear your result.
yes same as before i get an error 170: usb error, is there any other way :S??
fastboot errors on mine also.

[Q] [ Help! ] One S - soft bricked, S-ON, can't manage to get S-OFF, wont load ROM

Hello guys, this is the 5th day since im messing my mind on this particular device, im out of ideas now, and thats why im creating this thread hoping someone will solve this puzzle out.
I was reading a lot of tutorials, tryed many diffrend ways to get S-off, or trying to get back to stock..
GOAL: make this One S work, being rooted and have s-off, and have custom rom with sense 5 on it.
Story: i bought this HTC ONE S as a used device on cheap price, it was looking terrible, damaged case, cracked glass, outdated rom.
but i got idea i have to buy this one, because i think HTC ONE S IS MOST PRETTY DEVICE I HAVE SEEN , i will do restoration and make this baby beautiful as new! I polished glass, put glass protection on, repainted whole case with new white car paint. (it was black color version) now i have beautiful WHITE edition of HTC ONE S. its not for resell or anything, just personal use. ( i will do photos later on, when i will finish this project).
I noticed this phone have custom rom on it, but it was kinda buggy and slow, and outdated, it was some modded ICS rom. i was thinking like: no problem, i just read some tutorials here and flash new fancy rom, it will take just a hour or so at most,
i though this will be easy cake... since i have samsung galaxy s3 and i flashed it many times without problems.
ohhh how wrong i was... i almost bricked this phone...
THE STAGE THIS PHONE IS NOW AT:
ITS AN S4 DEVICE,
it can boot in to HBOOT with no problems and it can be controlled from windows 7 with fastboot commands.

now i cant change CID to 11111111, just wont work, i have no idea how i changed in first place. but i edited hex and now i cant push this file with supercid againt to phone, gives error. also fastboot write cid wont work to, ends up in error and flastboot frozes, need to reset by holding power key.
so now im stuck with CID: O2___001
soo... can somebody give me some instructions how to get out of this crazyness and make this sweet phone work again by having Maximus HD on it? thank you

Well lest start shall we...
First find stock or close to stock ROM like sourcE
Then find the tool rumrunner and s-off
once your s-off your going to flash the ROM first then update firmware in maximus But before that back up your SD your going to have to wipe it
Now if you get a bootloop your going to have to adb push the ROM to your phone I hope this helps you

ty for helping ;D
ok, i installed SourcE 1.4 zip trough recovery, and did cache, dalvic wipe, but after system reboot, i got boot loop. also ADB wont show device number, so its even less wants to boot as with Cyanogen mod roms. they also get boot loop but atleast ADB shows device number after sending command adb devices.
ok, i will simply try now do s-off like i would do by tutorial, and tell u where i get stuck.

completely stock (never tampered) Mini won't boot past hboot into OS

Hello XDA members,
My wife's HTC One Mini's battery drained yesterday and when we charged it up, it will not boot into the OS. I'm quite familiar with rooting, loading ROMs, and stuff like that for my HTC One, but it's really odd that the stock AT&T ROM and everything is getting this behavior. I would ideally not have to wipe everything right away because she took pictures of our new born daughter (3 months) and she unfortunately did not setup G+ to backup her photos. I'm a little hesitant to bring it to AT&T right away (we have insurance on this phone) because I feel like they might not explore all the options as we would here on XDA.
here is what the boot screen says.

I can get into BOOTLOADER which lists, recover, factory reset, clear storage, simlock, image CRC, and show boarcode.. but nothing happens when I select them with the power button.
I'm at a loss here. I'm going through the process of getting my Windows 8.1 drivers to connect to fastboot to see if I can access the card to pull down the images but I'm not sure if I can do that since I didn't have any opportunity to unlock it in ADB prior to booting into hboot.

Thanks! Unfortunately the executable requires the phone to boot into the OS to be recognized and the phone isn't booting into it. Trying to find the RUU stock ROM now to see if maybe I can push it over via fastboot. Crossing fingers!

Ah I read that it will work too if it is fastboot which is why you were suggesting it. I'm wrestling with fastboot drivers and windows 8.1 so it is recognized so I dualbooted into ubuntu which can communicate via fastboot so I'm hoping WINE will run and flash the RUU .exe
So I ended up rebuilding an older laptop to Windows 7 and ran the RUU executable and it looked promising at first with the updater recognizing the device and displaying what software version and stuff.... but then when it rebooted into hboot with it's process, the update failed.. not sure if it matters but it was "updating" from the same version as the current version. I was hoping this would be a fresh install. So now I'm looking into maybe doing a fastboot oem unlock and flashing a rom myself. Not sure if this will help me get the phone back from the dead, but going to do some more reading and exploring. If anyone has some shots-in-the-dark they would like to offer, I'm up for trying them.
I hope you would be able to fix it.
Ok so here is the latest and hopefully someone can confirm what I'm thinking for next steps.. I attempted to unlock the bootloader from HTC Dev. I was able to extract the keys, and I loaded the BIN with the new keys that will unlock the bootloader. Interestingly enough, I was expecting the HTC dev splash screen warning to come up where I would have to Accept the new terms and stuff, but that did not come up at all. So it was like I could go through the process and communicate to the device to unlock the bootloader, but something must be corrupt about it because it is just not responding the way it should on certain commands/tasks.. My bootloader is still locked (S-ON)
SO.. I stumbled upon someone mentioning that we are able to load CWM recovery even on a locked bootloader. Is this true and available for the HTC One Mini as well?? Couldn't find a definite answer on that for this device.

Have sent you a PM re your issue.....
Re flashing recovery without fastboot (locked bootloader), it can be done, but only, as far as I know, via the phone os using CWM manager or Flashify (which is a cool app!)
wanted to close the loop on this thread that nelvinchi and I literally tried everything we could think of to bring the phone back to life with no avail. Much respect out to nelvinchi for taking his time to help me out! We've determined that the device has a faulty memory chip and cannot be recovered...
Mine just did the same thing and I can't get through to anything I need help also if you have found a solution
Help my
provided you solve a problem with one htv mini.my I have the same problem, please help me

[Completed] [Q] Can not get past Fastbootafter attemptig to get back to stock

Now, I am inable to get out of Fastboot. When I tried to flash a new ROM, I get the messgae that adb can not see my device. I have no idea what to do, please help.

Hi,
I need to know your device make and model number to point you towards help.
Thanks!
Geeze, I'm sorry.
I am using an HTC One m8 with at&t. I'm not sure how to get the model number.
Also, I must have erased TWRP somehow, because when I select recovery from the Fastboot window, it brings me back to the same place.
You are s-off and super CID, easy to fix...
Here's a guide on updating firmware,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/development/firmware-flashing-panic-attacks-t2824048
And you can also flash recovery with fastboot again, same as you did the first time, then put a rom on an external sd card using another device, and flash it on your device from recovery from the sd card.
If you need help on those things, or want other ideas... The place to ask questions about your device is here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/help-thread-htc-one-m8-questions-t2897783
Good luck!
Thanks. I'll gove it a try tomorrow when I'm not so tired.
I seriosely can't thank you enough for responding.
That did the trick! You're a life saver, I have no idea how I missed that.
One last question. Now that Firmware is update, it looks like I'm using the google ROM. Can I change it back to Venom i I prefer?
That question should probably be asked in the thread I linked 2nd. I've never converted mine to GPE, or back. ?
You're right, sorry about that.
Seriously, I have no idea how I missed that article but THANK YOU!!!! You quite literally saved my job (conference calls I needed to be on).

Stuck on Verizon screen, can't open bootloader or recovery

Hello,
I bought an unlocked HTC One M8 off Amazon two years ago and I rooted it a year ago and everything was fine. Today I got the notification that SuperSU needed to update its binaries, I thought it was weird since it just updated binaries a few days ago but I went on ahead and did it. It asked to reboot my phone and now I'm stuck on the Verizon screen. I'm way out of my field here, I don't even remember how I rooted it exactly and going through the threads here is making my head hurt. I was following advice from this thread but I feel like I hit a brick wall. I hit "fastboot" on bootloader and it takes me to the screen with the "hboot, ramdump, reboot, reboot fastboot, power down" options but I don't know what I'm supposed to do here. Recovery takes me to TWRP but idk what to do there either. I tried the suggestion to run the RUU but it always says that my phone is not connected and won't let me do anything, I updated my drivers but it still won't recognize my phone. As a last resort I tried doing a factory reset but that doesn't work either. I don't know what else to do and I'm starting to think I just got a new shiny brick. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

I think the easiest solution to try is to flash the most recent SuperSU.zip in TWRP.
https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/supersu/download/zip/SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822.zip
The process may of had issues if your TWRP is out of date, I think.. not sure.
But you have options, for sure
Flash a custom rom. If you prefer stock, then flash RUU, using sd-card method.
I don't think you need to worry about a brick as long as you're still nothing into hboot and recovery.
Once it won't turn on, then you have yourself a brick.
Or the state of some HTC 10 owners who are stuck in aboot and can't enter recovery.
You are stuck in a bootloop, or soft brick, if you will.
