Already did it, it does'nt help either

I know many here at XDA frown on using toolkit's, but if you having problems try
Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit. Its free and works fantastic.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766475
It will install custom recovery. Just install the toolkit, select your phone model and let it download the needed dependency's then click the advanced button,
then look under Fastboot Flash for the recovery button and follow the prompts to install TWRP.
Best of Luck

One other thought.
Because It looks like you are doing things correctly.
Sometimes changing your USB cable to Hi quality one will help
as cables can sometimes work fine for charging but not work well for flashing.

[GUIDE] [Flashing ROMs] Step-by-step

Hello! I started this thread as it seems it's too hard for lot of people to search for guides about flashing. This is a way to get rid of useless posts like: "What is flashing?" "How to flash?" "Can I haz a cheezeburger?" Be grateful
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible of any issues you might have by using my guide. Flashing always includes a risk of bricking your device. Dont come to cry. You've been warned!
The list of ROMs can be found HERE
-Download ODIN Multidownloader 4.43. Link: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=W6CMP1LA
-After it has downloaded, extract it anywhere u want (i suggest desktop, easier)
-RUN ODIN.
-Power off your phone.
-Put your phone into downloading mode. Hold together: Power+Volume Down+Home (phone boots to Downloading mode)
-Connect your phone to PC via USB cable.
-Wait for the drivers to install. After that, in ODIN, one of the top line "bars" should turn yellow and some text should appear there.
-Download the AriesVE.ops file and check it as OPS. Link to download (attached, scroll down the first post, credits goes to manveru0): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331164
-Then check the 'one package' from the top left
-The ROM you've downloaded, check it as one package. If it's MD5 file. Then click flash.
-Flashing will take about 9 minutes.
-When you see "Close serial port and wait until rebooting" in odin, you can unplug your phone.
-Enjoy!
-If the flashing doesn't complete. Or you face some other problems, just try another USB port, or computer if possible
NOTE: If the ROM includes several files you should check them all. For example XXKP4 2.3.4 Rooted, screen shot:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Thanks for guide...finally someone made it.
May i add... if flashing gets stuck somewhere... try another usb-cable and/or usb-port. If possible another computer.

One noob question. Can I flash this stock ROM from recovery mode, meaning without ODIN. Just to reboot to recovery and than update from zip ?

through cwm Flashable boot.img and correct signing. AFAIK. im not a dev so dont blame me giving incorrect info. Thats for sure you cant flash .smd and .md5 files by cwm

What do you mean "update manually", do you mean by checking for the OTA in Settings?
Download the 5.18 RUU and run it on a PC with the phone connected. See under "Manual system update instructions":

If you want help, you need to be specific about what you have done to this point, and answer the questions that are asked of you.
Anyway, I already told you how to get the phone working. At least based on my (assumed) understanding of what you have done to this point.
I follow the step for make the manual system update from HTC. So when i finish show the fastboot menu, I reboot the phone but just stuck in htc logo and show this back to HTC logo.
Dude , at this point I think redpoint73 is saying that all u can do now is run the 5.18 ruu.

You've asked the exact same question 3 times now (once in my PM), and its already been answered several times above.
If you do not understand what we are telling you, asking the same question over and over again isn't going to help you.

True. Didn't catch that.
The pic itself looks really weird. It looks like he used a flip phone to take a picture of a computer screen, rather than his actual phone. So whether the picture even accurately represents his phone, is questionable.
In any case, it probably doesn't matter. The OP clearly hasn't bothered to read or follow the responses, or provide any meaningful information; and hasn't been back for a while.

[Q] Impossible to flash bootloader/recovery/rom

Hi everyone !
Here I am in a really bad situation...
I bought a second hand phone with a rom issu and the guy who had it told me he ahd no time to waste trying to make it work again, I decided to buy it thinking that nothing could resist a factory reset via ADB.
But, and if I'm here today, it's because I'm in a such a situation, I need some help, and hope you guys can find a solution or at least some leads.
when I got it:
- model 16 GB D821
- The battery was not correctly attached in the phone (i did open it and put it back how it should be and seems to work)
- it is root, bootloader unlock, with Teamwin recovery version 2.6.3.2
- bootloader version HHZ11D
I can launch the teamwin recovery, it's asking for a password when it's starts, i don't know whay BUT I did a data format seeing that some people had some problem with it and did that to fix it
In Teamwin I got 0mb of storage and no OS installed, again it could be fixable via ADB
Now the best !
I can't flash anything on the phone. I can connect to it, it's well detected, I can control it (via ADB or Fastboot) and I can even had a temporary recovery with the nexus toolkit. but:
-Impossible to flash the bootloader, I do everything right, there is not "error" but at the end nothing changes, I'm back with the HHZ11D version and not the latest on I'm trying to get the HHZ11Z.
-Impossible to flash the recovery, same as the bootloader, version teamwin 2.6.3.2.
-impossible to flash a rom, and I don't have one anyway....
Here we are, I think I tried everything, but any clue would be appreciated. I hope I can fix this...
Thanks for your help.
And finally a picture of my fastboot -w when I do one, does it seem normal to you ?

Try in fastboot, fastboot oem lock. Then reboot and see if the bootloader is locked. I'm guessing it isn't and your emmc is bad.

[Q] Bricked, only fastboot is working

Hello.
My English is quite bad, and I'm sorry for that. Anyway, I hope that someone of you can help me with my problem, and will understand what I wanted to say.
So, at first I unlocked bootloader. After that, with InsecureBootandRoot script I wanted to root phone. When I did it, in "cmd" it stuck on "Daemon started successfully".
From then, I can't run my phone. Bootloader is working, fastboot USB aswell. I tried to install few recoverys, but none of them were working. ADB is also not working, it can't see my device(Probably because it's not working in fastboot. And if my phone is not in fastboot, computer don't recognise my device). Also, I can't "throw" any files to phone because computer see my device only in fastboot.
I tried to use HTC ONE S AIO kit . It show me my CID(HTC 0_32) and version(3.16.401.8), but that's all. Other commands are not working at all.
I also installed sdk and all drivers. That didn't help, meh.
Any ideas what should I do to have my phone working again? :c

I have checked the link. The script "only" flashes a kernel (boot.img) + Superuser app. Flashing a new kernel should work for you. What command did you use to flash the boot.img ??
fastboot flash boot boot.img and then fastboot flash boot recovery.img
I'll try uninstalling sdk and all drivers, and then install them using tutorial from this forum. Maybe it will be easier, when adb will work .-.

Did you restart the bootloader after flashing? Have you cleared caches via fastboot also??
BTE adb will not help you without at least a working recovery...

Not at all, these commands under it mean that anything in recovery won't work.

Oh well, I'll just give this phone to the service. If they can't turn it on, and also turn on bootloader, can they say to me something like "Hey, you tried to change system of this phone so we won't give you another one"?. :c

Philz has a option to boot into bootloader. Have you tried it? If you give it to service they'll recognize that you have modified thze phone. As you were able to flash philz, you should also be able to flash boot+recovery image. Then you'll have to perform "factory reset + clear storage" to fix the sd card issue. I'm sure its possible! Once done you can install a rom manually or change the CID to run a stock RUU EU unbranded.
As your warranty is void I'd suggest to fix it o ya own

I had issues with my power button too. But one can install any custom ROM, where it's possible to use the phone without touching the power button.
I've been using s-aosp n version, for almost over 3 months or so. My phone works just perfect.
I suggest you to find rom's of your interest. Good luck:good:

You can do it without power button, you know, "adb reboot recovery".

Can someone please help me in rooting my Nexus 5 on 6.0.1 m4b30z; the issue is that power button is not working so rooting from recovery is not possible. Looking for 1 click root option, i have tried kingroot apk but didnt worked
Reason for root is to add power options in the phone using several app so phone can be restarted when needed
PS: I believe the Bootloader is unlocked because i have seen unlock image in boot animation

use this thread for reboot into recovery via adb, it's safest and don't try non-trusted root methods like you mentioned.
PS: don't forget to turn on adb debugging in developer menu ! (don't know how ? search )
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1853159
also for future reference, on android every command is possible via adb you just need to search for them..Google and XDA are your friend
So get familiar with basic adb there are some good guides here in Nexus 5 sticky therad as well as on general xda just search for ADB

which menu ?
just reboot into boot loader and flash TWRP & root using SuperSU then go to play store and find some app for advance reboot.

Okay here's ultimate solution for you and future similar cases...
extracted attached zip in PC.
Reboot into fast boot via adb and
double click root-windows.bat
and you are root !
now do whatever you want.
Main thread for this :

Oh...i just went ahead and did little more you.
anyway no problem...it'll help someone else in future.
btw if you can, change you root to SuperSU or other providers from xda as king-root , 1click and other Chinese companies are nasty with privacy
