Hello.
I was trying to root my device and everything was going correct until I wipe my system and stuck in bootloader.
- I've tried OTA file but not installed.
- Tried to install Viper Rom and installed it via Aroma but again stuck in bootloader.
- Tried to install ICE Rom but again no success.
My device is HTC E8 (M8Sx) and I've attached screenshot of my bootloader.
Is there any hope to fix?

I followed the steps from this thread:

I successfully unlocked my phone and installed TWRP recovery, but that's as far as I can get. I tried to flash the latest CM10 nightly but hit an error when I run the zip, saying that the MD5 file is not found. I also tried to separately flash the boot.img from the CM10 zip, but it didn't help.
I've cleared my cache and factory wiped (through recovery), but I'm still stuck in the boot loop and can't get to the OS. Please help!!
I think the problem might be that I never actually rooted the phone, despite having unlocked it. Is there a way to root my phone via recovery, since I can't actually boot into it?
I tried to install RebelMod, but i hit an error saying "Unable to mount /data" -- I'm assuming that's because it's unrooted?
you want to root a stock ROM?
flash superuser downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn.com/superuser/Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip
update: i managed to flash RebelMod successfully (according to TWRC) by running the zip file, but I'm still stuck in the boot loop even after doing a Factory Reset thru TWRC.
am I missing something?
wait a sec -- I got it working after I flashed the boot.img with fastboot.
hello all,
I need some help here; never seen this before and it's wierd.
I got a replacement HTC OneM8 (Verizon) yesterday, today I tried to setup with a copy of my Viper rom (5.01) but phone came with Android 4.4.4 so I did the following:
• used "sunshine" to unlock the bootloader and install SuperSU.
• install TWRP version 2.8.7.0
• backup stock rooted rom
• install lollipop vzw firmaware
all the steps completed successfully
Now my phone is all weird:
If I boot to bootloader it works fine but if I select "recovery" phone goes to TWRP Recovery v2.8.6.1 FROM here (recovery) any option that I choose to reboot the phone reboots to TWRP v2.8.7 even if I asked to reboot system.
I can never boot to the phone itself (system).
I want to completely remove TWRP 2.8.7 and keep TWRP v2.8.6.1
I already tried to flash the recovery over (was successful) but I'm still with this issue.

This should be moved to Q&A section not Development.
But I would run the latest RUU.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...zw-m8-master-ruu-firmware-collection-t2946473
then re-flash (I suggest fastboot) TWRP recovery 2.8.6.1

Flash the firmware.. Has stock recovery. If it boots to twrp after that, you're doing it wrong.

the first couples times I did, I choose the firmware "m8vzw_AllInOne_Firmware" and " 4.17.605.9 Modified Firmware ".... both did not work in my case but then I did again with full wipe firmware "4.17.605.9 Full Firmware" and did work.... I didn't have nothing on my phone anyway so, the full firmware which wiped worked..
Thanks
Hi!
I need a help! I dont know why but I cant root my phone anymore and I'm out of ideas
Here is what happened before i got stucked:
1. I successfully unlocked boot loader and it says its UNLOCKED :good:
2. I installed TWRP and everything went well :good:
3. I had some problems with rooting first time, but I got it working somehow, and it said TAMPERED :good:
4. I accidentally wiped all aswell System and I dont have Android OS anymore :silly:
5. I tried to install MIUI OS and it end up with errors - I really cant remember wich ones
6. OS gets stuck on MIUI logo and will not go further
7. Boot loader says that phone is only unlocked - NO TAMPERED anymore
8. I tried flashing SuperSU, Superuser and Windroid universal android toolkit but nothing will get my root access back. Installation says that everything went nicely but no TAMPERED text .
So what should I do next? Can I install a new ROM without ROOT access?
Hi all,
Recently I updated my Nexus 5 from Lollipop to Marshmallow 6.0.1 (MMB29Q) - latest build.
everything stock works fine but, once I flash a customer recovery, in my case TWRP it stops working...I get either a startup loop or TWRP gets erased by stock recovery.
I tried various steps ...
flashed TWRP 2.8.7.1 - rebooted to boot loader was able to get into TWRP but, once I reboot system, everything works but TWRP is gone/erased and replaced by stock recovery?
Flash TWRP 2.8.7.1, then flash latest TWRP 3.0, reboot to boot loader and can get into TWRP but once i reboot into system, I am stuck on the initial boot loop.
I have to start from scratch of flashing system and boot etc to get past the loop and it still replaces TWRP with stock recovery.
I can always get into Fastboot but when I go to recovery it seems its being replaced by stock recovery.
anyone experiencing this issue? thanks for your help.
I guess I am doing something stupid but, not sure what...and thanks for your help
If you give more detail on the steps you are taking it will be easier for someone to help. Also, have you tried doing a factory reset when it bootloops?
thanks for the response..here are the details..
I had Lollipop with TWRP 2.8.7.1
yesterday, I downloaded latest build from android site...extracted all files....booted into bootloader and flashed all files..
rebooted - Marshmallow works perfectly...offcourse it not rooted yet or its locedback due to this flash
Scenario:1
So downloaded TWRP 2.8.7.1 and flashed it as recovery, no errors nothing...i rebooted to bootloader and went to recovery to confirm TWRP is there
I rebooted the system - TWRP gives option to root which I said yes so its rooted. I reboot system, this goes into bootloop - I wait for say 5-10 min in this loop mode and I see that adb can recognize the device but nothing else....its stuck in loop
when I force shut down by holding power button for few sec - and go back bootloader/recovery - TWRP is still there
***note*** I did factory wipe in TWRP but that did not fix above condition.
Scenario2:
exact same steps but after I flashed twrp2.8.7.1, I rebooted bootloader and flashed twrp 3.0 as well confirmed twrp 3.0 is flashed and rebooted system - phone start normally no issues - when I restart to bootloader - no TWRP exists, its replaced by stock recovery
Scenario 2, I tried couple of other ways and still the same thing happens - twrp 3.0 get erased.
not sure what I am doing wrong but TWRP doesn't stick
since this is my active device - i flash system.img and boot.img to get the phone to working condition
thanks for your help
Try flashing the latest supersu to get root.

That did the trick.....thank you very much. I was using older version of supersu thinking it was latest.....I downloaded V2.65 and installed it and that fixed all my troubles..
muchas gracias
I attempted a ROM update today and it hasn't gone to plan. I an unlocked the bootloader, then I performed a factory reset (accidentally) but now I have Clockwork Mod (recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.8-evita.img) installed successfully.
I have attempted to load the following ROMs :
cm-12.1-20151007-SNAPSHOT-YOG4PAO332-evita.zip
KarbonKat-v1.1-0-20140609-0948-evita.zip
pa_evita-4.6-BETA5-20141022.zip
and all successfully install, but when I reboot the device I just get my HTC screen and then turns off completely.
What have I done wrong?
The only ROM that worked for me was: EVITA_UL_JB_50_S_TMO_DE_5.08.111.2_By_Turge.zip
