There are chances that the HTC people locked it again. (They usually format whichever phone they get to lay hands on)
Try going through the rooting procedure again (starting from unlocking)

Simple mate follow the procedure of putting recovery through fastboot you did after unlocking the bootloader..
Edit: Flash the recovery using fastboot through command prompt.. Then you will get the recovery again and install roms.

What for a ROM and CWM Version have you using?
CWM6.0.2.9 goes not for the most ROMs! You must need CWM6.0.4.4 or higher, or TWRP-Recovery for Padfone 2!
Perhabs your Device can reactivatet by a new Firmware-Flash with CWM6.0.4.4 or TWRP!
Thank you so much for your replies

false national rom!
I think you have Flash the fals national Rom! TW = Taiwan-ROM, CHT = China-ROM, WW = Worldwide-English, and so on! Thats named SKU Version of the ROM! When your padfone from Europa or USA than you need a WW or WWE ROM! It gives a thread on XDA for flashing other,false,back SKU on Padfones! Search that thread, there a tuturials for Changing or Flash back SKUs! Your device need a Flash back to his original SKU-Version of your ROM!
And for CWM your padfone must be unlocked! But thats simple! On Asus Homepage search your device, and than you can Download a Unlock-APK! Download and install thies apk on your padfone, and start it, than your bootloader is unlocked! And after that, you can install CWM or TWRP on several ways!

Build-Number is not important!
May be i can help you! Can you start the device in CWM-Mode? Can you go in CWM? In case that you can, load a TW-ROM (TW=Taiwan) via ADB-Sideload over CWM to your device! Than the device should install the original TW-ROM automaticaly!
In case that CWM not Functional, try to turn off the device, wait 30-seconds, than hold the ``+`` (Plus) button on the side of the device, and turn on the device where you hold the ``+`` (Plus) button permanently! Yet should come the ASUS-Logo and in the Top of the Display should stand ``Fastboot-Mode``! Can you please try that, and say me what the device do!?

Ok! I think it is the old CWM6.0.2.9 problem, this version of CWM has problems with flashing ROMs! BUT, there is one ROM on XDA for Padfone2 that must flash with CWM6.0.2.9! It is Tari's Padfone2 Custom ROM+Kernel! It is easy to find on XDA, and this ROM will flashing over Sideload with CWM6.0.2.9! Search on XDA for Tari's Padfone2 ROM, there you can Download the files, and there is also a step by step tuturial, follow that, and try!
And have you tested that Fastboot goes?

OK! But i think your Bootloader is Open, than otherwise, you cant go in Fastbootmode or CWM!? Fastbootmode and CWM (Recovery), that is the Bootloader!
You can go in CWM, then you can make the flash-prozedure of all ROMs! (Stock and Custom)!
Try Taris ROM! Go in CWM, make Wipe Data/Factory Reset, make Wipe Cache, and Sideload Taris ROM!
Did that not work, try CWM6.0.4.4 or TWRP-Recovery to Flash Original ASUS-TW-Firmware!
And when you can start CWM with - fastboot boot recovery.img - , than normaly you can also Flash it permanently with - fastboot flash recovery recovery.img - !

There is a other custom ROM for Padfone2 from Sissidroid! Search on XDA for - Guerilla ROM - it is easy to find, and in the thread to this ROM there is a link for Download CWM6.0.4.4. Because CWM6.0.4.4 is needed to Flash Guerilla-ROM from Sissidroid!
In Google search - TWRP for Padfone2 - then you find a TWRP-Site, from there you can Download TWRP-Recoverys for Padfone2. Take the Version 2.6.3.0 of TWRP, not other. The other Versions dont go! TWRP is a Recovery like CWM, but TWRP has a Touch-Interface, and the funtionality is often better than CWM!

The Root is here not so important. In most cases a ROM-Flash Unrooting the device! Every Time when i Flash a ROM, the device is after the Flash unrooted, and i must it Root again! Root is important for a Running System! And it gives a way to Root the Device over ADB/Fastboot, but i dont know how. But i have never Need a Root for ROM-Flash!

hi my friend : i have problem with flashing the recovery { fastboot flash recovery recovery.img } i dont know why and i tried to just boot the recovery img for test : fastboot boot boot recovery.img i tried it with twrp and its show me just the picture TEAM WIN BUT ITS NOT FUNCTIONAL CHECK THE PICS PLEASE AND LET ME KNOW WHAT IS THE PROBLEM AND THANKS
On the pics i see, that recovery-flash was failure! In your CMD-pic, adb gives you a writing-failure! That can happen, when you try it ones! Try it again, and also with cwm! What for twrp version have you try? By right flashing, cmd gives you a sending recovery ok, and writing recovery ok! You have sending ok, but writing a failure!?
And what for adb/fastboot binarys use you?
P.s.: I have a important question, as you tryed to flash Asus Firmwares, have you unzip the Firmware before flashing? Or just Download and Flash how it is!
Hello all,
I have been going slightly mad today trying to get my mate 7 2GB back from CWM to stock recovery. The main problem is that I do not have a stock recovery image. But after being shown where to find one, I noticed that I could not get it successfully flashed either.
Since I do not really know how to do this, I used flashify, but that did not work and either returned me to the CWM or sent me to rescue.
Can someone help me to a) get a stock recovery image for the Mate 7 version MT7-L09 and b) show me how to properly flash it?
Find stock recovery is easy.. only a question why flashify don't work for you? It work fine for me... your device is rooted?

A way to find the stock recovery is : download the whole B137SP03 Rom from the Huawei site , and use a tool called "Firmware unpacker for Huawei" whit this tool you can extract the recovery.img from the Rom and try to flash it using flashify

Ok, I couldnt access your firmware unpacker, but I did manage to use the tool you suggested.
I have a different recovery screen, but is this the right one? It has EMUI large in centre screen and the options reboot system now, wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition.
If this is the correct one, and I am already on the D137SP03 ROM, I should be able to locally update right?
I tried this, and got a lot further this time, but my phone gave an error message during the update. Do I need to flash the original B137SP03 rom again, even though I am already on it?
I think you maybe can flash using adb commands and also you need adb drivers working

That's right... you have stock recovery... sometimes the update fail if the UPDATE.APP is on the internal storage.. try to flash from a micro sd card or re-download the update ....

No luck so far.... I've downloaded the update.zip, put it in my mnt/ext_sdcard/dload folder and start the local update. It begins OK, as the progress bar moves along. But after about 25% it shoots to the end, and then I get an update failed screen with a red exclamation mark.
What could I try to get it to work??

Ok, I just reinstalled the B137P03 version from the how to install lollipop thread, and that went successful. Now going to try the update.zip! Keep you posted
Ah, now we're talking It seems to have worked. Phone is now showing 'Android is upgrading' and 'optimising app.....'
Great! It does seem strange I had to reinstall the B137SP03 rom, but that did the trick!
So yesterday i done a pretty stupid thing of restarting my phone after I hid my SU binary using hide my root. This left what i think was a soft-brick as it was stuck on the samsung animation. I then stupidly enough got confused with my TWRP recovery menu and ended up wiping out my OS, leaving only the TWRP recovery on the phone. I then decided to download a 6.1.1 stock rom for my SM-G920F. When i tried flashing however, somehow ODIN froze and i made another stupid mistake of restarting my phone from download mode which resulted in the phone being froze on a screen saying " an error has occurred while updating the device software use the emergency recovery function s6 " cant provide an image as this is my first post, but please google the error message if you wish to see it
So i panicked thinking my phone was dead completely and surrendered, but today i managed to hook it up to TWRP and flashed the recovery. Now when i bootup i can access download mode and it boots straight to recovery. To make matters worse I began trying to download the original rom i recieved when i got the phone, however when i try flashing i get errors such as " SW rev, Check Fail: 'x' binary 'y' device "
(x and y vary for each stock rom i tried flashing.)
I have no way of finding out my firmware, bootloader info or anything. Is there ANY fix to this? I've made a huge mess of everything and I'm now desperate. Please, any advice would be a god-send. Thank you for withstanding this crappy post, I'm kind of a noob at xda.
EDIT 1- So I managed to install a custom ROM and kernal as i could transfer files while in TWRP for some reason but a new problem has showed up. So as of right now I have a custom rom installed which works, but when reboot my phone, TWRP is automatically opened after the initial samsung logo. I usually have to reflash my custom ROM (without wiping any data besides cache and dalvik) and the ROM installer will then reboot into the ROM, however this means when my phone turns off, my recovery is booted up instead of the ROM
I'm sensing some sort of Bootloader problem?

First off i dont own an S6 (im still rocking the S4), but i have had some problems over the years but always managed to fix them in the end.
So while in Download mode are you not able to Flash Stock ROM (downloaded from samfirmware) via ODIN (following the instructions on the site)?
In TWRP are you not able to flash a custom ROM (probably with OTG cable if you dont have the ROM stored on the internal memory).
Any issues i have had i have always been able to do at least one of the above methods. If you cant do either or, im not sure what else i would try.
Thanks

So yesterday i done a pretty stupid thing of restarting my phone after I hid my SU binary using hide my root. This left what i think was a soft-brick as it was stuck on the samsung animation. I then stupidly enough got confused with my TWRP recovery menu and ended up wiping out my OS, leaving only the TWRP recovery on the phone. I then decided to download a 6.1.1 stock rom for my SM-G920F. When i tried flashing however, somehow ODIN froze and i made another stupid mistake of restarting my phone from download mode which resulted in the phone being froze on a screen saying " an error has occurred while updating the device software use the emergency recovery function s6 " cant provide an image as this is my first post, but please google the error message if you wish to see it
So i panicked thinking my phone was dead completely and surrendered, but today i managed to hook it up to TWRP and flashed the recovery. Now when i bootup i can access download mode and it boots straight to recovery. To make matters worse I began trying to download the original rom i recieved when i got the phone, however when i try flashing i get errors such as " SW rev, Check Fail: 'x' binary 'y' device "
(x and y vary for each stock rom i tried flashing.)
I have no way of finding out my firmware, bootloader info or anything. Is there ANY fix to this? I've made a huge mess of everything and I'm now desperate. Please, any advice would be a god-send. Thank you for withstanding this crappy post, I'm kind of a noob at xda.

If you boot in TWRP recovery it can be soved easily.
1)first try do wipe data and internal partition.And then try flashing stock firmware with odin(download proper file basing on ur model)
2)U may download a rom for ur model and flash using twrp.then if u want u can stay with the rom,i u dont u can try to flash again with odin after installing rom

'Device not recognised' fixed it though. Flashed custom ROM with TWRP
Emergency recovery will and should help.
Hi guys,

Hi,
Thanks for the help. Watched the video and follow his steps...
But now suddenly the hidden.img flashes on the phone.
So I get a green pass by Odin.
But phone doesn't start!
Tried "auto reboot" on and also off.
It doesn't fail anymore.
Deleted the hidden.img file and flashed it afterwards.
I can't get him alive. I'm gonna try other official firmwares with an older android version. I don't get it.... Why only download mode? Not even recovery opens. #notgivingup
should I try to root it with cf root and try to get a recovery mode on it? This phone needs to be wiped I guess.
try to get into recovery , and give general reset....
or try to install twrp -to install a custom rom...
does not make downgrade to android , it can break

Could it be that I super hard bricked this phone by flashing everything over and over? I always think, as long the phone boots in download mode you're pretty safe.
Can't flash twrp, stock recovery.....
No official firmware is booting the phone up. I used to have the hidden.img problem but nog every firmware flash completes but still doesn't boot the phone.
Is there an order in which I need to try to flash? Like, try firmware first, then a recovery,.... Or first a bootloader and modem, then a firmware...
Oh God help me!
Thanks for the replies I already got!
normal you should first bootloader ...after firmware
you tried that job ? https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/general/guide-repair-hard-bricked-devices-t3573865

Wow that link is a whole lot of Chinese for me. but I'll look into it this weekend! Thanks for keeping up with me. My phone still boots in download so I'm a step ahead. Gonna try flashing stock firmware without auto-boot ticked in Odin, then reset and restart phone manually in download mode and try to flash right bootloader. Should I go for the latest firmware or more like a 6.0.1 firmware?
firmware 7. is to good , why use it 6. ?
"Wow that link is a whole lot of Chinese for me. " lol for me too

Well because I flashed like a couple of firmwares... And heard about downgrading is bad but... Yeah this isn't really downgrading.... Im just trying to wake up my friends phone. I will try to flash the latest firmware and then the bootloader right after it.
Hi guys,
So still no luck. Flashed latest stock firmware, tried flashing bootloader right after the successful flash, no luck. Tried rooting with cf-root, which completes but no custom recovery... Not booting. So yeah I'm on that download mode again. Anyone has some solutions I could try? Could I try converting a custom Rom zip to a tar file and flash it with Odin?
Thanks!
Hey guys
So I think i'm facing a similar problem on my s6 sm-g920f. When I flashed a stock rom 7.0 it passed with no errors, but when it tried to restart it just stays at Samsung logo. I too can't access recovery mode, only download mode. And when I try to do the "removing battery" method using volume down and power button it turns off but turns on right after and gets stuck on Samsung logo.

At least your phone is booting to the logo. I literally flashed everything! Recoveries, stock roms, tried rooting, bootloaders, stock rom with and without hidden.img...pit files.... if you find something... Let me know!
Huh am facing similar situation one s6 was in softbrick I I had odin mode successful but it showed G9280d, custom binary system official, I got a similar stock recovery then The device did boot to home screen but system wasnot stable everything stated crashing I did reboot that's when it could only stop at Android s6 then I did cross check to get it labled g920f flashing ends with either CM erorr or bootloader, in miracle it stopped at hidden or CM or pit in odin am clueless.
Man try holding V- ,home button and power key it will work just try harder. I faced it just today though mine is still.
