I rooted my htc one E8 and was a fool and tried to restore my apps through Titanium backup before doing making a backup through TWRP. I got the android.process.acore stopped working issue. Then wiped in TWRP for factory reset (must of hit something wrong i know) and it then said no OS installed and does nothing but bootloader. I have tried to flash rooms from twrp, fastboot, adb sideload and they all give me the no MD5 file found and it finishes in 5 seconds. It goes to the bootloader only and is basically toast. Looks like i will have to reactivate my old phone. Here are the details if anyone can work miracles!

Twrp recovery - twrp - v2.7.1.0
I think there is some option in TWRP to bypass MD5 checksum
Update: Worse situation!
So i read some things about twrp 2.7.1.0 having issues with the htc one e8/m8. I tried to flash a 2.6 version and it deleted twrp completely and all i have is the bootloader. adb is now not recognizing the device and i can't flash anything to it. Any help would be greatly appreciated or if someone wants to buy an expensive paperweight...offers are being excepted

What ROM are you trying to flash?
And are you using the TWRP I posted?
---------- Post added at 08:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 PM ----------
Here's my TWRP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=55746327
I just built a quick stock rooted, uploaded here: http://goo.gl/BlFE1Y
So just fastboot flash the recovery, and then flash the ROM in recovery, and hopefully that'll work. This was cursory work though so it's possible it won't work.

Yes, I am using the TWRP 2.8.0.0 that you posted that worked on your wife's phone. Is her phone the 0PAJ50000 ?? Mine is the MEC_WHL as well. Just thinking as a shot in the dark....would one of here backups work? The only RUU's I have found are chinese etc....but i can't get them to work either. Ever heard of anyone getting the RUU straight from HTC??

I should probably post that stock rooted in the E8 forum then in case there are other Sprint users that run into this issue. I just hate opening threads . . .

I not going to be great help at this but what you trying to do needs to be done on the phone or at least thats how I did it. same when you do the kill file but do make sure you get this backup off the phone before killing it.
I would also read that thread very carefully as well as many of the posts that follow. There are some good tips in the posts, and I would read a few pages before starting.

That's correct, you have to use terminal emulator from play store on your phone for those two commands, first copying the bakp4 to your pc after you've pulled it to your sdcard. You don't have to use adb for that, you can just drag and drop to your pc or even upload it to Dropbox or something.

Good Evening guys like always i appreciate the support an response from you guys. So in my quest to downgrade my hboot 1.14 i have already extracted the bakp4 file from my phone it looks great, I have my IME number there from TMO now I have two questions 1 - Do I need the P23 file? and 2 - I have rebooted the phone into bootloader but how do i lock hboot from bootloader? Im doing this step by step because I want to have everything ready once i start the whole process. but right now i have seen in the steps that one guy after extracting his P4 says: "reboot to fastboot and lock your bootloader. And then run the RUU"" how do i do this??

Hello I know this is not the place to post this but here devs can see my cry for help and maybe help me faster .... So i was trying to ruu to the latest, and in the process I`ve changed my cid from suprecid 11111111 to htc__001 I don`t know how but it just changed. I`ve re locked my bootloader flashed stock recovery so i can run the RUU and that is all I did and now i can`t do anything on my phone i cant run the RUU because it is giving me some error 132 signature ... I can`t flash a custom rom it always freezes after flashing the boot.img, i can`t return to my super cid the way i got it before because i can`t run adb shell it`s saying device not found ...... So pls devs or who ever can pm me or help me somehow !! I don`t wanna lose my phone

1. when this happens to me I usually kill the adb process and re-initialize it with "adb devices". Try that and see if the phone gets detected.
2. I'm pretty sure 132 error means the RUU is not passing a signature check, ie the phone thinks its been tampered with. Try to download a known working RUU and flash that. Also please post the exact name and download location of the RUU you are trying to use.
3. Do you have s-off?
4. Can you get to the bootloader? if so, What does "fastboot getvar all" return?

I don`t have s-off i can get to bootloader and fastboot and recovery but nothing else. For the adb i kill the process but next time i start it its the same. I don`t know if I`m doing it right but I`m opening a cmd directly where adb is and then write adb shell and then it gives me that adb is out of date even after I updated it to 2.1 from the manager and again it`s saying device not found. I tryed to RUU the new euro 3.16.401.8 update and it failed, I did not try any other here is the DL location of the RUU its from xda post http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/?dir=Ville If u can find me on skype or something like that so u walk me trough this I`ll be very happy and i hope this works out cuz right now it`s not the best time to lose a phone

Why on earth did you re-lock? You can flash the RUU with unlocked bootloader..
Also check shipped-roms.com to find the correct ruu for your device..

Take it easy brosef, if you can boot to bootloader you're good still, and always try posting in Q&A first man, don't break the rules no matter how much you're panicking, we must keep forum rules over all.
Try changing USB ports, try the command posted above also. Next time pleeease follow XDA guidelines on posting threads...

You should download.it again, I think you have a bad file.
Once you have the file type the following in your command prompt on your computer
Fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then run the ruu on your computer. Tell us how it goes

Oh thx for the hint and yea I`ve just dled the ruu again. And what now ? What must i do so the phone runs again ?
All of us have been in these types of situations and you are supposed to know how to find answers for yourself before you go fooling with your device. I don't know how many times I have been in a panic situation and with a little or a lot of googling and reading and trying things you should be able to work your way out of it. Anything you are asking us is the same as asking google. No one is here to hold anybodies hands. Sorry if it's offensive but it's ridiculous and it is breaking the rules. Sorry if you or anyone don't like to hear this but it has to be told if you don't already know.

and why do you think i did not google the problem before posting here ... as u see i have like 200 posts not much like most ppl, so it`s seems I don`t post just cuz .... and yes it`s offensive cuz as i`ve told in early post I`m not a big android geek and I don`t get most of the things cuz I`m not native with technical gadgets, I work with bikes and cars. So instead of posting how I`m messing the rules and how bad I am and i have to be punished or something, help me, if not don`t flood the post, cuz you are making the thread even bigger with you posts, you did not even see that I`ve said to moderators that it`s not a problem to move my posts or dell them. I just wanted some help to make my phone work again and yes THERE IS NOT INFO ON THE PROBLEM I HAVE, at least i did not find any info that might helped me ....

Hmmm. Can you post a screenshot or log of the exact message?
If you boot into recovery can you get adb to work?
I recently purchased a phone on ebay in great condition. It was locked, and was on stock rom. I decided I liked how my custom rom operated on my other phone so I unlocked, rooted, and added a custom rom (initally Cyanogenmod, then I tried PacMan) using this tutorial - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583427.
Regardless of the ROM, I haven't been able to get anything over edge data speeds. I've checked the APN settings and they are correct. I have an unlimited data T-Mobile plan.
Here are some pieces of information that might prove helpful:

According to the seller, the phone's model is PJ40110.
My phone got stuck on EDGE after updating to the official JB OTA. I've tried a lot of things and have yet to find a fix. Might have to resort to sending it in for warranty, if possible. Looks like yours is on JB. Did you update it, or did you get it like that?

Doubt this will help, but have you thought about trying to S-Off and then running an old RUU (ICS)? It sounds like it could be a hardware issue, though, as you mentioned.

I'm working on that now, currently getting error: device not found once I type adb shell to get SUPERCID. Looking at other posts to figure out how to get this to work. Phone connected to computer and showing FASTBOOT USB so the computer sees that it is connected. Once I get SUPERCID then I can get S-Off and try going back to ICS.
With adb shell, am I supposed to have my device driver files in the "platform tools" folder so the adb server can identify my phone? HTC Sense and drivers are already installed and work fine.

Nope, just need HTC Sync, then uninstall it (so you're left with only the drivers) and get adb and fastboot files.
Edit: I don't think adb works in fastboot, works while booted only.

I've read that people that updated to the T-Mobile JB OTA can't get super CID, which means they can't get S-OFF. Let us know if it works out for you though.

I know you mentioned ADB not working when in fastboot. As a poster mentioned before, ADB only works when phone is booted up, not in fastboot. Make sure you have Debugging checked in developer options in the settings menue. I'm almost certain when you SuperCID, you start off with a booted up phone, not in fastboot, so that my be where you are running into an issue.
Also, do you have a custom recovery installed at this point? Just curios. Will your sd not mount in recovery, or just in general.
Keep working. You'll sort it out and learn a ton in the process. That's why I love XDA. Super helpful community.

I'll try ADB in regular bootup once I get sdcard to mount.

Been there and definitely understand. It can be frustrating, but I feel like most issues can be sorted out. Have you tried a different USB cord or port on your computer. Seems silly, but I've had similar issues, search high and low on xda, and someone suggested to try to different cord and it mounted. These phones can be moody.
Good luck and report back if you need more help.

Once I can find and flash stock recovery I think I'll be one step close to accessing my sdcard, and from there stock ROM or ICS ROM so I can get superCID, and then S-OFF.

Hello everyone,
My brother bought HTC One X+ so I got his Sensation very recently (though I helped him to Unlock, Root and ViperS it first time)
As a first time HTC user curiously I flashed couple of ROMs and finally settled on ViperS 3.1.2 (full wipe) yesterday
Problem started right after that. Phone started freezing every few seconds. I need to screen off the device for 1-2 minutes and then it will work for another few seconds and then freeze again completely.
Same thing happened in Recovery too. It took 8 battery pulls to flash ViperS again.
Since it is happening in both the Recovery and OS I narrowed it down to either of them
1. Bad SDCard
2. NAND problem
3. Some other hardware problem
Plz advise me as to what I should do to resolve this issue ?
(My brother will laugh at me that I could not handle HTC even for a day )
Thank you so much in advance !!!
UPDATE:
Seemingly re-flashing 4ext Recovery again and re-flashing ROM with full wipe solved the issue.
Thanks to both friends who helped me all the way especially rzr86
UPDATE 2:
Problem came back again. This time even worse
UPDATE 3:
My SDCard was the culprit. So if anyone has same issues first try another card.
try to format sdcard
then reflash vipers rom with full wipe
see how it goes
ddi you try with another sdcard?

Unfortunately I don't have another SDCard here with me. And Sensation does not have any internal memory or atleast I did not find any.

Your phone gets hang or only touch screen becomes unresponsive? I guess you should give a try to touch screen recalibration tool. You can found it in the development section.

using an ruu we will see if it is a hardware problem
if you still have freezes after ruu then probably it is a hardware issue
once you are on S-ON just relock the bootloader by using the fastboot command
then run the ruu.exe from pc
another suggestion is go to venom tweaks->misc tab->lcd density and change to 250
see how it goes
I flashed ViperS again today morning without wiping and since then it hasn't frozen except once when I was playing music in the background and editing id3 tags of few songs. After few seconds keyboard started typing random letters on its own. Screen off and on and it was good for another few seconds. Except this it has been good all day
Hmm...started again. Keyboard is typing on its own. Otherwise its normal. Virus ?
Which recalibration tool ? Is that safe ?
Is there any way to completely format all the partitions to eliminate any low (system) level virus issue ?
Thanks !

I went on holiday - whilst abroad I used my phone extensively to take pics, vibers calls, whats app and gps tracking without the SIM. on return when I touched home soil and placed my SIM into the phone it started rebooting in a constant loop i.e. I’m powering the device and it loads up to the home page and then restarts.
What I have done so far, very reluctantly: wiped the cache and restored factory setting with out the SIM card and the SD card - result = NO JOY
Can anyone help me please??? I keep reading that the phone may require flashing, can someone give me step by step instructions.
Much appreciated

Correct. The command gives information about the board (the phone itself). Some of it is firmware version and many more. For security reasons when you post it to anywhere, remove the IMEI number and Serial.
Also, There is an issue when connecting to 2G networks on some devices that the device reboots. Can you try locking it to 3G only? (On the dialer Type *#*#4636#*#*, then choose "phone information", and there there will be a drop down list of network modes, choose WCDMA Only).
many thanks, i need some guidance, can you point me to a step by step guide if there is one available?

@astar26 I asked him to post this so that it is clear what we're dealing with.
Before going into flashing, make sure you have tried all the obvious ways like battery connections, change of SIM card etc.
The easiest way would be to do an ruu. It will reflash all your partitions and can help you out. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672425
Alternative is to unlock your device and flash custom Rom. Since you did a factory reset already follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861 to unlock your bootloader and flash a custom recovery. Then either flash the ahrd Rom (link in the thread) or the stock one again
THESE METHODS WILL MAKE YOU FORMAT YOUR PHONE AGAIN (YOU'LL LOOSE YOUR DATA).
Happy to help.
many thanks again for the reply
I can’t get that far i.e. to the keypad, the phone starts, I see the htc logo and then it seems normal for maybe 2/3 seconds and then reboots. I have to remove the battery to power it down otherwise it continues the restart boot loop over and over again. I can get to the bootloader if there is a way to do it from there please provide newbie instructions.
Also the bootloader is unlocked - the previous owner unlocked it (I have had the phone like this since it was 4 months old and has been absolutely fine)
I’m thinking if it’s not a hardware issue then to flash the ROM and see if it resolves it. Now my issue is that I haven’t done anything like this before and when I Google for info it’s a bit like opening up a can of worms lol.
Am I correct, please confirm the following and put me right please
1:As the bootloaders unlocked can I download htc syn to my laptop, then download the correct RUU to the laptop, thereafter connect the phone via usb and boot into the bootloader and select fastboot, after selecting the fastboot option it should change to fastboot usb. Once this is done I can run the RUU and job done. (Is this correct)
2:According to an article I read my phone has a codename, is the codename for my phone Pyramid?
3nce I know the correct codename I can download the RUU from ‘shipped roms’ (http://www.shipped-roms.com/?category=android), Also at this stage when I select Pyramid I get a load of options for various RUU’s – which one is the correct one? And how do I know?

This is for general information and I don't know what Far_Sight had in mind for this, but did you try my suggestion (of locking your device to 3g only?) I provided instuctions for that on my previous comment.

1) Bootloader unlocked means you can flash custom ROMs, but not firmware (only via RUU).
2) Yes, it is Pyramid
3) Since you are not S-Off, you need the exact RUU for your CID, which is HTC__001 in your case, which means you need a WWE one (good for you, as this one is easily found).

1)you are correct:good:
but i think you don't need htc sync(i am not sure for that)
2)sensation/xe/4G's codename is pyramid
3)the ruu have to correspond with your region(same firmware or higher) and your cid
you can also see Far_SighT's post for RUU
but i suggest to flash first the stock rom from recovery
if you don't have a custom recovery flash 4ext(again from Far_SighT's post on how to flash it,only step 2)
then from recovery :
nandroid backup just in case
format all partitions except sdcard
enable smartflash
flash the rom
done
Many thanks to all that have replied and viewed with the intent to help
I have managed to resolve the phone using the guide provided. I downloaded an RUU.
It was quite interesting doing all this
I flashed the phone with an identical ROM i.e. version 3.33.401.153 – so I’m guessing whilst on holiday something happened which caused the software to get corrupt!
Next question, is it possible to flash the ROM again but with maybe the latest firmware – if yes can someone recommend an RUU.
many thanks

if you used a RUU with 3.33 firmware then you have the latest
@astar26 has the right idea. I had this issue for a long time, and after my own investigation I concluded that it was either the phones connection to 2g was resetting it, or I damaged the cpu by heavy overclocking. But the fix for the former helped me very much. One thing to note, if you can power up the device and have it perfectly without your SIM card in it. Or you can power it up with the phone in aeroplane mode then it tends to help the rebooting stop for a little while when your simcard is reactivated
