Hi. I am hoping someone can assist, I have an HTC one sv LTE. I think it's rooted it says S off in the bootloader. It is running Android 4.0.4,
I keep getting notifications for system updates. I download them but they won't install. I have tried to install a recovery ROM through bootloader/recovery but so far through it fails. Tried running RUU but when connect to PC it doesn't find the phone.
When started phone by pressing pwr with volume button down it gives this info
*** locked ***

Any assistance will be thankfully received
Somebody messed around on this phone! Hboot 2.0 means, it had Android 4.1 or 4.2.2 already installed.
But when you say, your running 4.0.4 it should be hboot 1.0.
The RUUshould run in your case, so what error do you get? Is USB Debugging on in Settings? Adb & fastboot driver installed? HTC Sync installed?

hi sorry about the delay I had to work late, the phone was bought from ebay by my son, it is has it came from ebay.
I have adb and fastboot drivers installed, but when I connect the phone to the laptop the laptop does not even see the phone.
when I run ruu from the laptop it says can not connect to android device
when I download update on the phone for the os it started to install gets about 3rd of the way through and stops showing a red triangle with an ! in the centre of it, only way to turn it off then is by pulling the battery. when I start phone in bootloader then select recovery it gives options to install from sd card where I coped the recovery file, it starts to install then stops saying signature verification failed installation aborted, I have taken some screen images so you can see, maybe you can work out what is going on

Well, your device is S-off, there are many ways to get latest software.
And this brings the question in my mind: what is the goal you wanna get? Latest Software?
Easiest way would be, to flash twrp recovery and restore a backup from 4.2.2. Should be an easy task, when the device is S-off.
To the RUU "thing", i have copied a guide from HTC website, how tro flash a RUU:
Performing the ROM Update:
1. Download and save the HTC One™ ROM update to your PC.
2. Connect your device to your PC via the supplied USB cable.
3. If the device is not recognized by the PC, ensure you have HTC Sync Manager installed and then disconnect and reconnect the device from the USB cable.
4. Once the device is properly recognized on the PC, locate the HTC One™ ROM Update that you downloaded. Double-click on the file to launch the system update wizard.
5. Follow all of the system update wizard instructions shown on your PC.
6. Once the update is complete, click Finish in the Wizard and the device will reboot.
7. Once the device reboots, the initial setup wizard will appear.
8. Once the initial setup process is complete, open Play Store and tap the Menu icon, then select My apps and ensure all installed apps are updated.
9. After initial setup and updating all apps, the device is ready for use.
Note : If the ROM update wizard fails to recognize the device, close the wizard and then follow the steps below:
· From a powered off state, hold VOLUME DOWN while powering on the device.
· Use the volume buttons to scroll to FASTBOOT and then press the POWER button to select it.
· Connect the device to the PC while in this state and attempt the ROM update again.
To exit FASTBOOT manually, use the volume keys to navigate to REBOOT and press the POWER button to select it.

hi, I guess my ultimate goal is to have an stable working phone with the latest software the htc one sv can have,
yes it is S off, but I downloaded twrp app on the phone but when I open it I get the message the phone needs to be rooted and it closes so even though it says S off twrp does not recognise that its rooted,
when I connect the phone to the computer, the computer does not see the usb device and on the phone just the light to show is charging comes on, does not say usb debugging started or sync etc.
I do not know what has been done to this phone but seems nothing I try works,
I am not the most experienced I need expert help thats why I'm here.

If it isn't broken, we will get it done
We start with "minimal adb/fastboot" -> [TOOL]Minimal ADB and Fastboot or go to the direkt download at afh
Install the exe file and choose a place like desktop, for installation.
Download HTC Sync, install it (software & drivers get installed), then uninstall HTC Sync (only the software, so drivers should stay on your pc).
Download this TWRP backup, which is the latest software for your device.
Unzip it (you will get a k2ul-3114011-422-sense5 folder with some boot, data, system files in it) and put it into a folder on external sdcard that has this folder structure:
TWRP\BACKUPS\Put in here the Serial number of your device (in UPPERCASE LETTERS)\k2ul-3114011-422-sense5
Connect your phone to your pc with usb cable, boot to fastboot mode (bootloader), go to your minimal adb folder and open a cmd window. Type into this window
Code:
fastboot devices
You should get an output with the serial number of your device.
Then we go to www.htcdev.com
Make an account and follow the unlock guide/process until you bootloader is unlocked. Note: you will loose all userdata, so backup everything what is important to you.
Download the TWRP_2871_Recovery.img.zip file here, unzip it, rename it to recovery.img and copy it to your minimal adb folder.
Go to the cmd window in your adb folder (device is again in fastboot mode) and flash the recovery by typing into the cmd
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Now we boot to recovery and there go to wipe -> advanced (steps here could be named a little different, because this is an 2 years old version od TWRP and meanwhile some things have changed, so i'll explain how i remember the things).
Check system, boot, data & cache and swipe to wipe.
Go back to main menu -> restore and if everything was correct, you will see the backup you have downloaded before. Choose it and swipe to restore.
After the restore you should be able to boot into android 4.2.2 software.
If that was fine, we should flash latest firmware for the 4.2.2 software, but that step i'll explain if you are ready for it.
first let me express my thanks for your expert assistance and patience
ok now
download minimal adb/fastboot and install to desktop....... check
download htc sync complete with usb drivers install the uninstall sync leaving drivers installed ..... check
download twrp backup and unzip to sd card with file structure TWRP\BACKUPS\Put in here the Serial number of your device (in UPPERCASE LETTERS)\k2ul-3114011-422-sense5......... check
Download the TWRP_2871_Recovery.img.zip file here, unzip it, rename it to recovery.img and copy it to your minimal adb folder.......... check
connect phone to computer with usb with phone in bootloader...... fail
I opened cmd window in minimal adb, booted the phone in bootloader, put into fastboot
connected usb cable but it still said fastboot, didn't change to fastboot usb so anyway from cmd window I typed fastboot devices but nothing happen just the same line of code appeared on the line below
eg c:\ users\jules\desktop\minimal adb and fastboot> fastboot devices, hit enter
but all that happens is the same line appears below without the fastboot devices
c:\ users\jules\desktop\minimal adb and fastboot>
Ok, not sure whats the problem, but lets try another way first:
Make sure your phone is charged at least up to 50%.
Download this RUU: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960683578
Rename it to PL80IMG.zip (make sure it is not named PL80IMG.zip.zip) and copy it in the external sdcard. Boot into the bootloader and let the phone recognise the zip. Confirm to update with vol+ and let it run until its finished.
i have just done as you directed but it does not recognise the file, it just says no or wrong image ??
looks like some one has done a real crap job on this phone previously
Well, it seems so...
Few things: check if
- the name of the ruu is named correctly
- you have the file in root of your external sdcard
- the md5 sum of the downloaded file is the same as on the afh download site
About the fastboot not recognised:
- try another usb cable
- try another usb port
- or even try another pc
Other suggestion: Sunshine is an app to unlock/soff htc devices. One Sv is supported, as far as i know.
Maybe this app can unlock the phone without to use fastboot/adb connection. But it is a paid app and cost 25,- $.
Only if already used on the phone, the second unlock is free. Maybe worth a try...
would if work if I try through recovery in the bootloader menu?

Tbh, i don't know. Never tried this way, but the ruu should work, from root of external sdcard, when you are in bootloader (not fastboot mode).
Did the same yesterday with my One M8, without problems.
right now I am booting up my older desktop pc, it is windows 7, as laptop is windows 10, will download all software and drivers and try again, heres hoping lol
i have used my desk top computer, downloaded all again but still same result. phone does not see computer and computer does not see the phone,
this maybe a stupid question and if it is please forgive but could the charge/usb port on the phone be faulty?
Yes, possible.
Lets try another thing: go to tis thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2386426 and follow the guide to downgrade hboot (download k2ul version). So we can see if your bootloader accepts PL80IMG.zip. And if succesful, the bootloader will match the software version.
please old.splatterhand i have HTC One SV but i can't do it S-OFF Because His S-ON
and i can't goback to stock rom 4.2.1
please help me
Hi! Could somebody help? I have a factory unlocked HTC One SV. The phone doesn't turn on when I try to power it on. I also tried the volume up+power button hard reset, but it didn't worked.
When I connect it to the pc, the device manager says: Relink HS-USB Qdloader 9008 (com 5)

All I know is that I downloaded the ROM from here, used CWM to flash it on, phone said update installed and rebooted the phone. I waited for an hour and it still did nothing past the bootload screen. Also, yes I'm t-mobile.

Okay, let's try something.
Check your drivers on the PC, make sure you have ADB (from Android SDK or other sources).
Power on the phone, plug it in the PC.
Check if any drivers are installing/updating. Also check Device Manager to see if the device is seen in there.
If the PC sees the phone, open a cmd window and navigate to the directory where you have ADB (if using the android SDK, it should be in the tools folder of the installation directory).
In the cmd window, once in the directory containing the ADB, type "adb devices". You should see something about adb server stopping and starting, than, if everything alright, you should see the device as a number.
If you can see your phone, that means you're saved. Just run the command "adb reboot bootloader" and you're good to go.
If the phone cannot be seen by the PC, try and boot the phone holding vloume - pressed, try this with volume + too. Or simply google on how to boot the phone in bootloader mode.
Once in bootloader, again, you're saved. You can go ti fastboot usb mode and from there, do whatever you need to do.

Can you give me more details? Where do you see that message and when exactly? Maybe an ADB logcat?
If you can get into fastboot usb, you can easily google for flashing solutions using fastboot.
always good to say how you fixed it for others who may have similar issue--

I do that and my phone just keeps flickering and goes back in to cwm recovery. Please any ideas?
I am really confused since having to use ADB and flashboot. I am thoroughly confused that someone has not simply written step by step instructions for this in a sticky so newbies like myself can follow. With that in mind I am trying to change from CWM to TWRP. I have the files but completely oblivious on how to get things to work again. I go into a command propt and start adb or flashboot but cant seem to get it to find the device. Now I cannot find the instructions I used to install CWM. Can somoene kindly help with either a link or instructions to make this change so I can be good and flash some ROM's?
Thanks,

1) Power your phone off and once its off hold down power + volume down until its booted into HBOOT/Fastboot mode (bootloader).
2) Place your TWRP img file in the platform-tools folder where your adb/fastboot files are.
3) Shift + Right click inside of the platform-tools folder and open as a command prompt.
4) If you're not already, switch to fastboot mode and assure it says "Fastboot USB" or just fastboot at the top (don't remember if it says USB or not) and then in the command window type the following command and press enter: 'fastboot flash recovery name.img'. Replace "name" with the file name of your TWRP img.
5) It should say "successful" and then from there you can navigate to your new TWRP recovery via the bootloader by navigating with the volume keys and selecting the "Recovery" option by pressing the power button once its selected.

Really appreciate what you said but I am running into the issue in the command prompt. When I type the commands it says
error: device not found
I have rebooted both phone and computer but it never seems to find the device now and not sure what to do.
Do you have any suggestions on do I start adb and run any commands, SU, fastboot, or what? I know its working because the computer sees the devices by an external drive. The phone is able to go into fastboot on reboot as well. I just do not know where my dilemma is.
Do you have USB debugging enabled under developer options?

I'd assume this means you haven't installed the proper drivers? Well actually I'm not really sure these even relate to the fastboot drivers BUT worth a shot to fix your problem!
Download HTC Sync Manager from here and install it and let it install the proper drivers for your M8 (with phone powered on of course) and once they are installed and it's done make 100% sure you UNINSTALL HTC Sync Manager after, only the program, not the drivers themselves.
After that re-attempt it and also as the other guy said, enable USB debugging all though I don't think it will do anything unless the phones booted into Android(may be wrong).
Also see if you can get ADB to work while the phone is running. Instructions for testing ADB would be turn the phone on, enable USB debugging and in the command prompt type
Code:
adb devices
and if it pops up your device then you should be good. If it doesn't then it's most likely related to the drivers and I would recommend you uninstall all drivers and remove every trace of them. My prefered method of uninstalling them is using Device Manager (windows tool) to uninstall the drivers and then use USBDeview to remove the rest/traces/etc.

OK finally found the phone and flashed putting TWRP on it for recovery. Thank you very much. Using the ADB and FASTBOOT are things I guess I truly need to learn. So, with that I thank you and now I feel good about beginning my ROM flashing.

I basically went in and did the adb devices. Once it seemed to see it I had to do the adb reboot bootloader then do the flashboot flash recovery twrp img. Now I have it working and about to flash santod's NuSense ROM since I used it on my thunderbolt that was recently replaced by this. Wish me luck LOL.
Hi there,
I had my HTC One S rooted, S-OFF, unlocked, with SuperCID running MaximusHD and I wanted to reinstall a fresh version of it to give it to my father. However, I went too fast and wiped absolutely everything. So now, I'm stuck on the startup screen (with the warning message in red) with no OS and I can't reboot into recovery (wether using hard keys or fastboot) as I can't switch off my phone. What do I need to do in this case? It's plugged to my computer but, of course, as it's stuck on the startup screen, it doesn't recognize it.
Thanks in advance.
Small update: I managed to turn it off but I still can't get it recognized by my computer. I will try to uninstall all drivers for now, I'll get back here as soon as I have time to do that. Hopefully someone will have an idea by then
Flash the recovery from my signature. It will enable USB mounting in recovery mode for hboot 2.16. Just be sure to flash the dm version.
The thing is I can't flash anything since I can't transfer anything to my phone.
Right now, what I've done is reinstalling drivers properly (I get the mention "FASTBOOT USB" in bootloader) but I can't do anything with One S toolkit v4 for example. I managed to get adb commands working and tried to push Maximus ROM through ADB but I got a protocol failure message
Edit: oh wait, it's been transferred anyway.
Do you still have the folder from the install package archive? If yes, open the cmd console and go to the package folder. If it's like in my case "D:\Root" you got to type
Code:
d:
and press enter. Then you got to type
Code:
cd
hit space, repeat pressing tab until it says
Code:
cd Root
and hit enter, again. Then plug in your phone, put it into fastboot usb mode and type
Code:
fastboot devices
into the cmd console and hit enter, once more. If everything is working you should get a list with attached devices which shows your phone.
If your phone isn't listed try another usb port or another cable or if nothing else works another computer.
Next download the TWRP version from my signature, rename it to recovery.img an put it into the install package folder. Then enter
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
into the cmd console and press enter for one last time.
TWRP 2.8.0.1-dm should be installed now and you should be able to mount your phone as mtp in recovery mode.
It's all good now! I could get ADB/Fastboot working and could reinstall a fresh Maximus on my One S. I can now safely give it to my father and enjoy my new Z3 Compact. I'll probably install your TWRP anyway though.
Thanks for your help!
Your welcome. Actually it's not my work so it's not "my" TWRP. I've found some mistakes in my last answer cause I'm in a little hurry right now. Going to correct it later for the case that someone else has a similiar problem...
Edit: My previous answer is corrected now.
My Oneplus One - 64GB was running LiquidSmooth's Alpha ROM.
I hadn't used the phone in like a month. A couple of days ago i thought there'd be an updated version so i just downloaded a later version. I think I flashed the 01-22 Build.
I did not do a full wipe however. (I realize now that It would have been a good idea to do a full wipe before the flash. :s )
I assumed that since the base of the ROM was the same lollipop, all I had to do was wipe cache/dalvik and flash the update.
Installation proceeded as usual and I wiped cache/dalvik(I'm never sure when to do this so i do it before and after install) once more and then Reboot System.
But the phone went on a bootloop for like 10minutes or so.
I tried to get into Recovery but it just wouldn't. It would just show the 1+ Logo and Powered by android screen and then turn off..
I did however manage to get into the fastboot mode by pressing power +vol up.
Now the problem is, the device doesn't show up in the command prompt when i type
Code:
fastboot devices
I uninstalled all the usb drivers from my pc.
Installed the Universal ADB drivers from kouch's site but still no progress..
Device manager still shows the phone as an unknown device.
What am I doing wrong? What can i do to get the phone to be recognized so I can flash the recovery and flash a new ROM?
It's related of firmware change. After 01.17.2015 you must flash the latest CM12 rom and then flash the rom you want.
That's a known "issue". Hope it helps.
Problem is:
1. I no longer have a working recovery(can't boot into recovery).
2. Rom doesn't boot, stuck in a bootloop.
3. Can get into fastboot mode, but pc doesn't recognize device and it doesn't show up when i type "fastboot devices".
I've already installed "Universal ADB Drivers from here -> http://www.koushikdutta.com/post/universal-adb-driver
What can i do to be able to access phone via fastboot?
Should i remove these drivers and try another driver? If so, which other driver should i install and test with?
I don't have any critical data on the phone, I just want to get it working again so my family members can decide who wants the phone.

Uninstall all drivers, reboot PC, install those universal drivers again, reboot PC, connect phone in fastboot mode, try fastboot again.

Hello Everyone,

I have upgraded OS via Odin, it passed but phone is not getting work.
Sometimes it doesn't open recovery boot and gets stuck at Recovery Booting.....
Sometimes it restart from the installing applications screen.
If you have any files for binary 11 (B) or anything i need to do before flashing OS via Odin.

Thanks!

Can you be more specific about your booting issues?
Is the device boot looping? How far through the booting process do you get before failure? and what happens after failure?
Can you get your phone into recovery mode or download mode?

Sometimes it gets ON normally and after some time it reboots itself and then it keeps doing it again and again, and sometimes it gets on and goes straight to the recovery mode, and yes i can get my phone into download mode too.
If you have precious data you want to keep, then you should create a back up of your phone, if you haven't already done so.
If you're unconcerned about data or have created a backup, then you could factory restore from recovery mode.
Alternatively, if you haven't got the latest version of Odin, then you could try downloading the latest Odin software and attempt another flash.
Another thing you could try, is to sideload the update via adb. You will of course need the latest adb software which is easy to find. You can follow this xda guide here (https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/), or if you prefer it you could download Android Studio from here (https://developer.android.com/studio).
To sideload the update you will have to:
1. Boot phone into recovery mode. Hold the volume up, home, and power buttons, and then let go of the power button when it power on.2. When in recovery mode, select the option, "Apply update from ADB."3. With your phone plugged into the computer, open the cmd/terminal and type "adb devices". The cmd should start up adb and display something like:List of devices attached[device id] sideload4. Navigate to the folder that contains the update file. It needs to be a .zip file.5. Type in the command, "adb sideload [file name]".
To make things easy you can set up adb so you can run its commands from any directory, the steps for this are covered at the end of the xda guide I have linked.

I tried to update from ADB but it said, unauthorized access!
and I also think it is a hardware issue
Can you start in safe mode?

Yes if it boots normally and then i can go safe mode too.
Just so you know, I'm running out of ideas. Can you try the other suggestion that I mentioned above?
The one where I suggested flashing through Odin again?
I'm kind of assuming that USB Debugging and OEM Unlock were turned on as well.

Ikes! Are you able to try and downgrade to your original stock firmware? Seems like the issues began with trying to update.
where can I download original stock firmware from the internet? Can you provide me the link kindly? Last time I used Frija (desktop app) to download firmware.
Pretty much everyone on xda (including me) uses this website for firmware: https://www.sammobile.com
You have to create a free account but it's worth it for all the firmware they have available.
I believe you already know this, but I'm just going to cover the bases anyway, make sure to download firmware for your specific model G930T.
