Dear team mates,
I will try to explain my problem as best I could. In February 2016 I manage to flash TWRP recovery 2.8.7.0 to my htc one m8 and install ROM ViperOneM8 5.0.1. For almost one year every think was OK. In three month I try to entry recovery and I could enter with no problem. Then I notice my battery level is decreasing quit fast. My thinking was there must be an app which is sucking my battery. So I decide to reset my phone to factory defaults. When I try to do this in android menu, phone restarts to bootloader. Then I chose an option factory reset and it enter again in bootloader. I try to chose recovery and again I enter in bootloader. At the moment my phone is working, but I couldn't clean the phone / install clean ROM.
Can somebody help me with this issue?
Hi
performing a factory reset from the android system settings may erase your custom recovery , you shgould have do it from recovery
find here https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/general/vomerguides-m8-bootldr-unlock-s-off-t2800727 how to regain your custom recovery, good luck !

What does factory reset in Sense settings actually do and is it the same as Factory reset in the bootloader menu? I'm asking because I was told by HTC support to do a factory reset even when I told them that I have successfully installed two different RUUs. Will the factory reset make any changes that the installation of an RUU doesn't make?
Same here, have a Factory Reset Question...
I'm currently running custom rom Android Revolution hd 3.6.9 - if I want to reformat and reinstall the rom, since I have so many apps already, and I just want to refresh, can I just hit settings / SD & Phone storage / Factory Data Reset?
Or do I need to re flash the same custom rom under recovery?
Or do a factory reset under recovery?
factory reset simply takes the rom at the state where it bootet the 1st time. the rom you have installed that is. so yes you can use it as a frest start, no need to flash it again. it doesnt do any changes that shouldnt be there. just puts the phone on it's initial state where your current rom booted the first time.
Ihave had my GT-I9020T for a few months but in the last week i had problems with it foreclosing all my apps after i turned it off and back on and now i cant get my phone to unlock bootloader or factory reset at all. I have never unlocked bootloader or rooted my phone before on this phone because i got it with 4.0.3 OTA updated so really no need to root yet. I get this on recovery 3a when i try to factory reset/wipe, what does it mean?
Have you tried reset to factory/erase sd from phone menus ?
The best thing is to :
-unlock bootloader
-fastboot flash recovery cwm.img
do everything from there...(format,reset , etc..etc...)
The stock recovery is crap
Refer to the general section for more details
i already tried
I already tried to unlock bootloader but it wont do it because my phone wont let it factory wipe. i have tried to erase sd in main menus and it successful but factory reseting wont work and that is where the problem is.
Bump. I have this problem now too. Ever since I updated facebook my phone started force closing everything and I cant reset or unlock my bootloader again to wipe. Someone please help
My phone is being slow lately so I've decided to do a factory reset. I own a Moto g xt1032. I did some stuff with ROMs but they didn't work and I gave up about that.
Whenever I try to factory reset via settings my phone shuts down and goes into some menu (forgot the name). I have the options recovery factory barcode etc. But my phone didn't factory reset or anything.
Then I read I need to go into recovery mode and choose to wipe everything. As always whenever I try to start recovery mode it just says "boot up failed"
I just want to reset everything and I don't need to backup as I don't really have anything special on here.
Thanks in advance
Are you still running a custom ROM? If so, a factory reset will not put you back to stock - it will only remove personal data - because ROMs modify a different partition. If you want to return to a factory state, you will need to flash a stock rom. I would flash these stock zips through recovery, for which you can get downloads and install instructions from here.
I just installed a custom rom in HTC one m8, then I rebooted the system but always boots back to boot loader screen. Please help how to resolve.:crying: I did all possible ways available in internet. No help. Wipe data, factory reset.

Oh well. If you want guide then sure. Here you go.
First of all let your battery drain completely. Once battery is dead. Plug your phone into charging and as soon as it shows three options boot screen quickly press Volume Up to boot into recovery. It will boot TWRP. Only if you tried via HWOTA 8. Read OP to know complete story. Now once in TWRP keep your phone on charging and don't let it shutdown. In TWRP go to Wipe and Format Data. Do it one to two times. Now go to Advanced Wipe and individually select each of the following one by one.
Cache
Dalvik Cache
Data
Internal
System.
First select repair file system and then after it repair wipe it individually. Then do a collective wipe. One or two Swipe to factory reset. After this cleansing flash firmware for Oreo of the build you were trying to go-to via Hurupdater. Search for it and follow exact guide. After that select Reboot Phone and when it's powering on, you should get three options menu. Press Volume Up to enter erecovery. This time you will boot normal recovery. Factory reset and then Format cache. Reboot system. First boot will take time. Be patient.
After you reboot you will notice several apps missing and themes not working as well as pinkish wallpaper instead of purple one. To fix flash any Oreo Compatible TWRP or the TWRP form Elemental ROM thread. Go-to wipe and format data. Then advanced wipe and select Data Internal System Cache and Dalvik. Wipe and then reflash Firmware via Hurupdater. After it finishes, reboot system and then reboot into stock recovery. Perform factory reset and then format cache. Reboot.
