[Q] Bricked HTC One S

It started off with me rooting my phone and unlocking to bootloader to install a rom. The rom got stuck in a loop at the htc logo so i tried using the recovery in cwm to bring it back to the stock, only my sd card wasnt being found. Ive been reading random things and different parts from different situations and im not sure what ive done tbh.
So the current situation is i cant access cwm i get some weird symbol with a phone and some red symbol across it. I can access fastboot though. Ive tried the ruu thing but i get an error of it not being able to update, from what i believe its because the rom is a higher version than the ruu and ive been unable to find a higher version. The version i have is for 1.84.531.2 and what is on my phone is 1.84.6 something. Not sure where to go from here, any help is appreciated
Edit: Ive also tried flashing the stock boot.img using fastboot flash but i get a signature error or something.

Re-flash recovery, then install ROM. Then fastboot flash boot boot.IMG!

where would i get the recovery.IMG for Clockworkmod?
Edit: Ok i think the image i sent you is me in cwm. The problem is is i cant install a rom as i have no access to the sd card, it's not mounting or whatever.
Edit Numero 2: I tried fastboot flashing a boot.img and i keep getting a message in the command prompt saying <remote: signature verify fail>.

Edit: is your Bootloader still unlocked? the RUU wouldn't work with it being unlocked anyway...it would have failed somewhere

Try flashing TWRP-2.2.2.0 , the mount option worked of me when the CWM did not.

I relocked the bootloader. Well at least it says Relocked on that screen (not quite sure the name of the screen, its the one that pops up when you hold the down volume button when its booting up)

Shouldn't you have re "unlocked" your Bootloader before trying to flash the recovery image

If nothing works flash a ruu!

I unlocked it again and still cannont install the rom. Unless there is another way to install it without using cwm. Every time i go to cwm it fails to mount to sd card.

What ROM are you flashing? Have you tried another ROM? Have you checked the MD5 hash after the download?
you are able to boot into recovery now, right?

[Q] Bricked my HTC One S

Hi all,
Got mine today, tried to install a ROM and it got stuck in bootloop.
I did a number of stupid things not to mention wiping the SD and im in serious trouble.
I can get into bootloader and CWM but thats it.
Ive heard restoring a RUU can cure it but I have a MAC and cant find anything to help.
Can anyone help? Im gutted....and fell like an idiot.
Ive got an S4 on the three network.
Thanks

Hold down the power button for 10 seconds then after the touch buttons stop flashing, just hold the volume button and see if ot enters the bootloader.

Specifically you'll have to flash the ROM zip file from the recovery and then use fastboot flash boot boot.img.
You can find boot.img inside the ROM zip file

Tried flashing ROM zip but no joy...when should i flash boot img? before or after recovery?

Finally seem to have done it and managed to RUU
The phone is locked to 3 but as a noob I spent 2 days flashing a generic euro ROM.
When i realised i need a ROM to match CID i downloaded 1.53. Tried this a number of times with no joy.
Just tried 1.78 and it seems to be working
Thanks to everyone for your help - us noobs must be sooooooo annoying.

Htc One S bricked
Hi im relatively new at rooting and am currently experiencing issues with a bricked device.
i have two htc one s devices
my personal one is running cm10 ville with clockwork touch recovery and is working perfectly
however the second one i was using the same exact files.
this one is bricked
its in a constant bootloop.
i can get back to my recovery just fine and get to the fastboot in the phone fine
i cleared my cache
wiped my data and wiped the dalvik cache all perfectly fine when i try to flash the cm10 official rom back on it cannot mount the sd card
i would try to install a different recovery and try again maybe using viper one s
but i cannot get the phone to power on
it doesnt showup on the computer when it is plugged in while in fastboot
when i try the cmd fastboot flash recovery it says waiting for device
any advice. this is not my own phone so i need it repaired pretty quickly.
any helpful information would be much appreciated.

Bootloop does not mean your bricked...means you need to fastboot flash boot.img

This little post just pulled me out of missery. Love ya man!

all you guys getting sorted
make a nandroid and sdcard bu NOW and put them on pc,
obviously leave a copy of nandroid on phone also
makes it a lot easier if you get in trouble again
and you/we will

Mounts and Storage --> Format everything --> Now Mount USB Drive --> Put Gapps and ROM
Flash it, erase cache & and Dalvik...Blah blah blah. Flash boot.img in fastboot, and there you go.
Everybody, please remember this and there won't be noob q&a anymore...

Thanks a lot . I just flashed back after clearing cache and it worked fine. You people rocks.

Can't get root working.

Usually am pretty good at this stuff but just got this device and can't figure out what I'm missing.
The drivers seem to be working okay, the bootloader says its unlocked, I am on stock JB which I am going to the right forums for.. Just can't get into recovery. I use power and down volume and then up volume and I just get the error Android. Let me know if anyone has suggestions or what I am missing please.

First off you should have posted this in the Q&A section, not Development.
Anyway, have you flashed any recovery? Or have you just unlocked the device?
Look here for installing recovery
Hope that helps :fingers-crossed:

What recovery did you install? Do you have a custom recovery? The native recovery expects its files in a specific directory and will throw an error ("dead Andy") if there are none there. Can you get the 70 to connect by USB, and detected?

In order to flash anything, you must install a custom recovery. You cannot use the stock recovery as it will only flash stock roms. You can either use ClockworkMod or TWRP. To flash it onto your tf700 you must use fastboot which is not hard if you find a detailed guide.

Are you actually unlocked? You are still on the stock recovery if you see a dead android.
Try this if you are unlocked

Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 not booting

So I have this Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, GT-P3100 with Jellybeans 4.1.2. I recently rooted it using Kingroot. It worked fine until I tried installing a custom kernel. I installed unofficial miui v5.4 using CVM Recovery v6.0.7 I think. I clicked install from sd card and installed the .zip file. It said installed after a few mind. I then clicked reboot device now. It started booting and showed a new boot image, which I thought was normal. But the image wasn't fitting in the screen. I waited full 30 mins and it stayed there, a light coming and going as a logo. Nothing happened, so I pressed the key combination of power button + volume up button for 5 seconds and it started again, showing the new symbol. It has not booted after an hour and half.
Please help, I don't know what to do.
I admit I am a little new in this. But I saw a website to tomsguide.com and followed the steps with pictures.​

So I think you flashed a incompatible Rom on your tab 2, well the only way to get it back booting is to try restoring it back to stock firmware, just Google how to restore tab 2 to stock, and follow the video on the channel droid cheats but yeah if you have got pretty fast internet and don't want to spend entire life downloading that 1GB file go the general discussion of the tab 2 7.0 forum here and scroll down you will find a thread named fast download link stock firmware I think it should be something like that and download the one made for p3100, want more help comment below

hello sir,
i know how to solve your problem.
the problem you are facing is a boot loop .i.e you get stuck in the boot logo
and your device never goes further.
the common reason is not clearing dalvik cache before flashing a new rom in recovery.
so now solve this problem follow these steps.
1. charge your device fully and go to recovery.
2. do the following-
do a factory data reset.
clear cache and go to advanced and clear dalvik cache.
now flash the kernel and rom and the gapps(if you have).
now reboot and see you will go through the boot logo .
HURRAY YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY FLASHED YOUR NEW ROM
NOTE: all the steps above are only to practice in CWM Recovery.
if you still have any problems let mw know.
thanks

so now solve this problem follow these steps.
1. charge your device fully and go to recovery.
2. do the following-
do a factory data reset.
clear cache and go to advanced and clear dalvik cache.
now flash the kernel and rom and the gapps(if you have).
now reboot and see you will go through the boot logo .
HURRAY YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY FLASHED YOUR NEW ROM
NOTE: all the steps above are only to practice in CWM Recovery.
if you still have any problems let mw know.
thanks
