[Q] Problem rooting and installing CWM - General Questions and Answers

I have an HTC One V. I successfully unlocked the bootloader without problems.
But I tried rooting it, and after clicking install my phone rebooted and came to the HTC logo screen, where it has red writing underneath that says
"This build is for development purposes only do not distribute outside of HTC without HTC's permission ..."
It would not start up, so I had to hold the power button down and manually restart it. Then it started up normally, but is NOT rooted.
I also tried installing the CWM, and got the same logo screen with red writing.
What can I do? I have searched the internet and cannot find a solution.
The screen does not go away until I manualy restart.
Thanks!

Problem installing official ROM

Hi all..
I'll get directly into the scenario..
HardSPLed (1.17) my HTC Snap device ->
installed [WM6.5 STD 21854][Build 3VO.2.50.112509] works perfectly but I wanted to get back to the original WM6.1 ->
went back to WM6.1 successfully, after a while the official WM6.5 ROM realesed by HTC ->
downloaded it ->
tried to install it, everything goes well till the upgrade indicator reaches 29% and hang for no reason and giving me a 262 error after a while!!! then I followed instructions to recover the upgrade process as shown in the upgrade application then it hangs again at point 29% giving me the same error!!!!
I tried many times the steps of recovering and the same thing happens.. I'm confirming that my usb cable is working good and Windows Mobile sync application works great.
So I decided to install the 3VO.2.50 version again since I had a dead device and surprisingly everything works fine with the cooked version..
Now the problem is I need to install the new HTC OFFICIAL ROM and I can't do this... i've followed many topics here that nearly the same my problem but there is nothing except the frustration now i stucked in the coocked ROM and can't install the official ROM nor getting back to the original WM6.1 version
Any help guys will be much appreciated ..
Thanx in advance..
See this thread, follow the directions of the last post.

I have had the same issue installing WM 6.5 official ROM from HTC on mine. I followed the recovery process around 6 or 7 times before succeeding. it's kind of frustrating, but it worked in the end.
Thanks for help..
After walkingthrough sikkboy626 link i was able to install the official WM6.5 ROM
But after the upgrade process ends successfully the device restarted and only shows a black screen with 'smart mobility' and at the down left of the screen there is a B G R D letters, beside each of them there are some kind of numbers (in orange color)
Then it just hangs !!!!
Any clue guys ???

that's the normal boot screen which indicates the radio version, rom version. just wait a few minutes for the phone to boot for the 1st time. if it still doesn't do anything, try re-flashing.

this is really a common error when flashing the ROM. try doing the recovery process as indicated many many times until success.

in the recovery process, you don't need sync. read the documentation delivered with the ROM, they say how to recover.
Yes I know that i don't need sync in a recovery process.. i'm just proofing that the recovery/upgrade application doesn't see the device.. so i'm stuck here, i can't re-flash, i can't hard reset i can't do anything using my pc 'cause simply it doesn't know that the phone is connected to it...!!!!

the only thing that i can tell you is to try the recovery process over and over until it connects correctly to the device. i have had the same issue as you : my phone wouldn't boot at all and was stuck at 29%. i re-booted my computer and followed the recovery process around 6 or 7 times as suugested on the screen, and then it worked.

Ok :
1 - Remove the battery from your phone for a few seconds. Put the battery back in.
2 - While holding volume DOWN button, press the power button. The phone will enter "bootloader" mode and you will see a tricolor bootscreen.

Yes... finally i see the tri color screen now...

Thanks alot raphaelc for helping me.. phone is working now perfectly after reflashing

[Completed] HTC One Can't Update With Root?

Ok please bare with me I'm new to the rooting scene. Ok, so as some of you may know there's a new update (6.10.531.10 - something about audio issues). So, I keep getting the notification to update and I've been trying to update for a while. Now, my phone (HTC One T-mobile) is rooted and every time I tried updating it would take me to the TeamWIN reboot thing (I don't know what to call that). So, I did some research and it turns out I had to install a stock recovery, update, then reinstall my custom recovery. So, I did install a custom recovery and everything is fine (not sure If it was, but my CID is TMOB010, something like that). However, the problem occurs everytime I press install it reboots fine and it goes into the green triangle downloading, then it goes all the way or close to it and it switches to a Red Triangle With an Exclamation Mark, and theres nothing I can do from there. The only thing I can do from there is hold the power button and wait for it to restart and it goes back to normal, and the cycle repeats again. Can someone please help me?
Edit: I do have S-ON if that makes any difference.

[Q] HTC one m7 not updating to lollipop

I tried to update my HTC One [m7] unlocked/international to the new Android Lollipop with the OTA update that got pushed yesterday. However, it keeps failing. My HTC is rooted, and is currently running 6.12.161.9 (trying to update to 7.18.616.2). It is S-ON and has an hboot 1.57. Now, the problem keeps appearing in the following way.(I installed stock recovery of 6.12.161.9 :crying:version) The phone starts the update process normally. It goes to the recovery and the progress bar starts to move. However as soon as it reaches about 1/4 of its way (always the same), it stops the installation and returns to the recovery title screen (the red triangle and exclamation mark). When I then press volume up and power button to see the recovery menu, it gives me the following readout at the bottom on the console:
Code:
"/system/lib/modules/ansi_cprng.ko" has unexpected contents
What i have to do now....?
Am i going correct..?:crying:

Please Help !. HTC One Mini stuck in BOOTLOADER Menu

My HTC One mini swtiched off a couple of days ago and since then only load to bootloader menu no matter what I click or do. It goes also automatically to this screen as soon as I plug it with the charger even if did not press the on/off key.
I tried to unlock the bootloader according to the instructions on HTCDev.com site. Everythings work till the last step, as no menu appear on my phone asking me if I want to unlock the bootloader or not.
I also tried to use RUU to install a new Firmware. The phone showes a black screen for a couple of seconds and then restart again to bootloader screen. I got an error afterwards.
The phone was running on a stock firmware, no root, no custom recovery, or any other thing.
Can anyone help me to solve this problem. It seems my phone has no OS or something like that.
PLEASE HELP

I seem to be in the same situations... although I got to it in a different way. Where did you download the RUU from? is it version-main: 4.14.401.2 or higher?
Try: rootwiki dot net and search for htc one mini bootlocker unlock....this helped me to UNLOCK and put TWRP recovery on it... maybe it gets you a step closer.

pls help me with my htc one s bricke problem

so i decided to root my unlocked htc one s, i've tried lots of one click root apps like kingoroot and others but none of them worked. so i decided to use framaroot. so framaroot didnt work too and i got really pissed off, and i accidentally pressed a button which was saying this: execute script/sd card/custom and my phone restarted. i thought it would boot normally and i would use phone normally but i saw that lockscreen ring was gone. now i cant unlock my phone but it works inside really well. i mean facebook notifications and missed calls are appearing on upper screen part (forgot how its called the place where clock battery icon and others are displayed, also forgot to mention that i locked my bootloader before trying framaroot because i thought something bad would happen to my device) when i first tried to root my htc one s it always got stuck on entering recovery screen, but i could normally use my phone. no most of the times my phone wont even turn on, i mean when i trie to it manually goes to bootloader screen, i hardly manage to boot my phone normally but still without lockscreen ring. also when i try to connect it my pc i get windows error. i tried updating drivers and it didnt work. also my phone is 2yrs old so i cant retutn it to htc with warranty, also screen is little broken but can still use normally. pls anyone help me if you can :crying::crying::crying::crying:
I am not HTC expert, but at this point you should could try to get S-OFF, HBOOT 2.16 and upgrade firmware (link in my other thread in this section) in order to flash latest roms and get a clean install
