HTC One ME - no rom - twrp recovery installed - bootloader unlocked - s-on - One (ME) General

Hi:
I have pretty much explained my position in header. so i rooted my htc one me m9ew and on restart it went to bootloop. i flashed recovery from there. now even if i try to flash any rom its still on bootloop. keeping in mind my bootloader is unlocked and S-ON. what should i do? any way to keep this phone alive?

Try Htc Ruu or the software from Htc i thinknit might be emergency flash but theirs something like that

Thanks King:
I have managed to install custom ROM basically designed for HTC One M9+ since there is no custom rom for htc one ME edition. this new clean slate rom gives no signal and very buggy. in short i cant run normal phone operations on this rom. i tried installing RUU from htc_fastboot but it gives error 19 and i am unable to flash. i have tried many sources for this RUU file but in vain. any suitable suggestions to make this phone operational will be highly appreciated.

One more thing, do i need to relock bootloader to flash firmware???? getting following error:
(bootloader) HOSD CL#549681
(bootloader) ERR [SD_UPDATE_ERR] Main version NOT ALLOWED
(bootloader) ERR [SD_UPDATE_ERR] sddownload failed: 19

Try installing something through recovery another functional rom might not be what u want but get that running and then do what u are trying or try its recovery menu.
One of those should work if not try to look for a solution in one of the threads must be something here

I have managed to install RUU its working perfect but just there is no signals and no imei in OS, however, i can see it in boot menu. any advice?

I`m a noob but, heck...erase everything from root of your SD card...some files can force loop cycle (when you are in bootloader)

At this point to get your phone operational I would download the appropriate RUU for your phone and reimage it to get it working again.
I know you flashed the 3.33 RUU. What I mean is try the 3.32 RUU

What about reunlocking the bootloader (Can always relock it right?),then run the 3.33 RUU again or flasha cyanogenmod rom again and see if it boots?
Usually boot loops are simple. Like wiping dalvik and cache solves it but that is on a rom basis not a stock RUU Basis.

about reunlocking .. i visited the htc dev site.. i entered my token number.. it gave error ..that i cannot be unblocked blabla.. how do i reunlock it ? locking is ya its done with a single command... plus
i wanted to know if i flashh 3.33RUU which i did earlier, do i have to flash a rom just after this or does the RUU have a rom inside the exe, i am asking because when you go to temp folder you see a rom.zip file which many ppl suggest to flash via fastboot if normal ruu flash isnt working ?
i am trying to flash the rom.zip from 3.32 now .. hope it doesnt give the bootloader error here

the ruu.exe contains a rom.zip too
extract the one from 3.33 and flash it manually from bootloader or via fastboot command
tried that already, thats why you are seeing the firmware in my log as 3.33.. but i notiches the baseband is unavailable.. might that be a problem ?
none of the given instruction helps :S what should i do ? i flashed the 3.33 rom from RUU + from fastboot just after RUU still the bootlop, it reaches htc splash and restarts .. n goes on n on n on..
UPDATE : i relocked my bootloader via htc dev, i installed 4ext again .. i cleard factory reset, cache dvlkcache, format partition expt sdcard... this time i installed ((rmk-pyramid-stock_ics_3.32.401.3-v1)) with the smartflash enabled .. i installed, booted back to fastboot , flashed the boot.img.. and it still get stuck on the htc splash screen .. a tone come and it restarts .. ..
Update 2 : i installed cm-10.2-20130929-Sultan-pyramid , flasht boot.. now cyanagebnod circles spins and its booted .. i didnt receive a bootloop yet but inside the settings it shows unknown baseband and i dont have my phone signals
update 3 : still those bootloops as i can sometime bootup.. i am going to try to get S-off using juopunutbear ..

for S-OFF you need the stock rom.link in my signature.i don't know if it works with other rom
and something else.when you are enabling smartflash don't flash after that the boot.img
you are doing the same step twice
just downloaded the file from your signature.. Sensation_3.33.401.53_deodexed : flashed it ok it booted after a couple of heartbeating bootlops ..first time it took alot of time to load.but it booted atleast but then again stuck there with bootloop, and now i got my signals again.. but bootloop is killing me .. 20,.30 times bootlop then a single start then again bootloop
+ i wanted to know ,, if the joupnutbear will work on 3.33 ?
any way .. couldnt get though the process.. just got fedup.. so gave it in a market to repair.. hope they fix it
no that guy in the market was a noob .. he just installed the stock that i installed earlier and send the mob back... ill have to do it ... i wana ask .. how can i run jupunetbear if i cant bootup.. alot of bootloping is there
hey mate... .. i was able to make it s-off using the jp windows guide.. but i still have those loops.. some time.. like , 3, 4 times a day ..

k2_CL RUU freezing @ black HTC screen

I am trying to restore my phone obviously but when I try to use the RUU it keeps freezing at the update progress screen, but the bar never shows up. Any ideas?
Tried a different cable, and now I am getting error 155, (The rom update utility couldn't update your android phone.)
The reason this is such a problem, is because I can't get intpo TWRP, it gives me the twrp loading screen, but then softboots loops over and over into the twrp loading screen. I flashed recovery.img a couple of times and still can't get it working.
Basically at this point I feel like it's RUU or bust.

RUU will boot you into [fastboot's OEM rebootRUU] mode. Do you mean there is not a green progress bar? What ROM ver are you currently on?

Yes no green progress bar. Currently there is no rom, because I cannot get into twrp. I edited my original post with some additional info.
Another update. I finally got into twrp, and now I just need a rom to flash I believe.
I have flashed a rom still no luck.
I flashed stock recovery, and relocked my bootloader. and tried the RUU again still getting error155. if anyone has a TWRP nandroid or a rom I could try that would be amazing.

Check this out i had the same problem than you, and this was the answer
First at all restore this backup with TWRP
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2734434
ICS preferred,
FLASH BOOT.IMG with Fastboot
Second if you can start up your HTC,
flash stock ICS
recovery.img with fastboot.

then you can update via OTA.

There is an encrypted Rom.zip pulled from the actual RUU itself posted for K2_CL.
Using fastboot:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip Rom.zip
Give it time. Could take ten minutes or longer until it is complete. Had a guy do it over on AF and he has his phone back now.

What shows on your device screen when doing it?
Also, if you are S-On and was on 4.2.2 prior to your device giving problems then it will fail because the RUU is 4.1.2 and would require a "downgrade" which can only be achieved if S-Off.
With that said, I went back up on this thread and saw you are having problems with TWRP. Make sure you are using the correct one. Should be 2.7.0.2d or 2.7.0.2c. If attempting to flash another version and you are on 4.2.2 then you will get boot problems with the recovery.
In addition, make sure your bootloader isn't locked if S-On while messing with TWRP or that will cause a security problem on your device.

bootloader is unlocked but I am s-on maybe that is causing all of my problems. I will see what I can do to remedy that. Well nevermind, I can' t s-off without a working rom, and I can't get a working rom without s-off.

Hmm, well, there is one thing I know for sure and that it that you are definitely able to restore your phone, so I'm pretty sure that some attempts being made In regards to trying other methods are possibly not being done exactly like they should.
This device is VERY hard to wreck and I have done LOTS to my phone and have always been able to bring it back to life in 5 minutes or less.

I am fairly certain I am doing it right. My mistake here was not doing a backup before I flashed anything. Let me go through what I had tried.
The RUU, I run it with my bootloader locked and I get error 158, I run it unlocked, I still get error 158.
I have tried the rom from the RUU, fastboot into ruu mode, transfer it, and I get an error
I tried putting PL80IMG in the root of my sd, it seems to flash correctly but it boots in white htc quietly brilliant screen. and flash boot.img for that rom.
I restore a rom via TWRP boots into white htc quietly brilliant screen.
and countless other things.
What about the other backups for boost (older than 4.2.2), does none of them work?

1. RUU won't work because it's 4.1.2 and you were on 4.2.2. The RUU has the HBoot in it and your device will not allow the HBoot to be downgraded because you are S-On. Only time you can use an RUU is if it is equivalent to 4.2.2 which one does not currently exist for us.
2. PL80IMG.zip's only work for those who are S-Off. Which is why it won't work for you.
3. When you restore your device using TWRP you ALSO have to rename boot.emmc.win to boot.img and flash it using fastboot:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
-- This is because, once again, you are S-On and cannot write to your boot partition EXCEPT using fastboot. You could using dumlock but to get dumlock initially set up for the first time would require your device to be able to load an OS so for you that is currently out of the question.
You must restore your device using a twrp backup, AND NOT REBOOT THE SYSTEM when it is done.
Instead, reboot the bootloader, and using fastboot, flash the boot.img which comes with the twrp backup as I just stated earlier.
Then you may reboot.
That will ALWAYS work, so if it fails, then this is an end user problem.

[Q] Bricked XL Evita? Only Boots to CWM

Hi
A few days ago I tried to unlock my HTC XL Evita and then flash a custom rom. I'm not entirely sure exactly what I have done.
** TAMPERED **
** UNLOCKED **
Evita PVT SHIP S-On RL

RADIO-1.34a.32.45.21
OpenDSP-v33.1.0.45.1128

Nov 15 2013
At the moment it boots directly into CWM 6.0.4.4
CWM reports that it can not mount basically anything, including the USB Storage. Hence CWM has no usefulness.
From the bootloader, I can run FASTBOOT commands. This is what happens if I try to send a zipped rom
C:\.android>fastboot flash zip KarbonKat-v1.0-14-20140531-1251-evita.zip
sending 'zip' (178295 KB)...

FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 7.963s
If I try to upgrade CWM to 6.0.4.8 it works, but after a full reboot it reverts to 6.0.4.4
If I 'send' a rom zip via CWM, it appears to install correctly, but when it reboots it just goes back into CWM.
I'm a little lost with what to try next. Would appreciate some help. Do I need to provide any more information?

You can't flash a ROM using fastboot, you flash ROMs through the recovery. If you've performed a factory reset from the bootloader that's why you can't mount your sd card. This is a bug common to this device, it corrupts the sd card, so never perform a factory reset from the bootloader. My advice right now would be to flash TWRP recovery instead of CWM, you'll find TWRP builds for our device here:
http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/evita
Check the How-To Guide For Beginners thread in my signature for detailed instructions on how to do this, and many other basic operations. You should also check the Evita FAQ thread in my signature.
Anyway, once you have TWRP installed you can use the wipe menu to wipe the sd card (if indeed you did corrupt it by performing a factory reset from the bootloader). Use the mount menu to mount the sd card (mount usb storage) and copy a ROM across. Then use proper process to flash a ROM.

ooooh you beautiful ozzie bastard!! I could kiss you on the mouth I've been f*cking about with this for 3 days straight!
Your beginner thread helped. Although I could not get it to install via the SD card/internal storage for some reason. In the end I tried sideload and that did it. Re-flashed boot.img and now I'm booting into KarbonKat
Thanks again. Appreciate the help.
Should I bother with S-Off? Will that give me anything extra above custom roms?

Lol, I'll just take the thanks [emoji13]
Having s-off is definitely something you should do, there are some great benefits:
- You'll no longer need to flash the boot.img via fastboot every time you change ROMs or kernels.
- You'll be able to flash radios.
- You can run any Evita RUU.
- There are other benefits I can't think of right now.
Facepalm S-off (requires SuperCID)
Rumrunner S-off (doesn't require SuperCID, but I'm not sure how reliable this method is with an aosp ROM installed)
I find it odd that installing from the sd card didn't work. I'm thinking that's possibly because you don't have the correct recovery version installed (TWRP 2.7.0.8 is required for current aosp ROMs due to an updated fstab layout that's been introduced by CM). It's worth flashing that version, you'll find a thread for it by @pandasa123 in our Android Development Section.

Ahh bollix, I fuxed it!
I needed to unlock the Orange sim on my Evita and realised, after I bought an unlock code, that it would only work on stock roms. I started trying to flash a stock rom and failed. FAILED I TALL YE!!
I tried following this thread to flash a stock rom. However it failed and when I rebooted, I got stuck in a bootloop to the bootloader. Fixed that by re-flashing the recovery. However, now it does not boot the phone anymore (hangs on the boot logo). I can't mount the SDCard. So last resort, I tried sideloading the stock rom. This is what happened:
C:\.android>adb sideload OTA_EVITA_UL_JB_45_S_Orange_UK_3.17.zip

What recovery version do you have installed? And exactly which ROM did you attempt to install?
Sent from my Evita
Hey
So I was playing with it into the early hours and managed to get some progress. Was using TWRP 2.7.0.8, I installed an older version of CMR (6.0.4.8) and was able to properly 'wipe'/format the SDCard partition. After this, I could mount the SDCard and transfer ROMs from Windows. The first ROMs I tried where the stock Orange Roms from this thread. But I got a failed message on both. I then tried the last ROM I had working, which was KarbonKat-v1.0-14-20140531 - That flashed fine and booted. So just for kicks I thought I'd try the Slim-Evita-4.4.4.build.6-Unofficial - That flashed fine, but it buggy as hell.
So I can go back to KarbonKat and be up and running, but it does not solve my problem of needing to unlock it to use another simcard.
What should I do next?

Those Orange files you found aren't ROMs, they're OTA files, they're not flashable via recovery. Nothing from that thread you linked to is flashable via recovery, they're all RUU's and OTA's.
KarbonKat is a pretty good ROM and you should have a pretty good experience on that one. You'll need to flash a Sense ROM in order to use your SIM unlock code, you'll find Sense ROMs in the Android Development Section.

Ok, thanks. I'm downloading 'CleanROM' and will try that.
I had a pretty annoying issue with KarbonKat, in that it kept locking up and rebooting. Wasn't running any major apps or overclocking it. It would reboot just sitting on the side doing nothing. Often would lockup when I pressed the power button to wake it up. Would that be a hardware fault?
Further testing on different ROMs will tell you whether you have a hardware problem or not.
Sent from my Evita
I had a similar issue with aosp roms. Relieved it by turning off MP-Decision with Trickster MOD (should be possible with other kernel tuners.) I'd try flashing other roms first to be sure it isnt rom/flash related.
Thanks
So I finally got CleanMod on there and it's now fully booted and the simcard is unlocked.
If I now flash an AOSP KitKat ROM, will I loose the sim unlock? Other than KarbonKat, are there any other 4.4 roms you would recomend?

You'll never lose the SIM unlock, no matter how many ROMs you flash. Asking which ROM is best/most stable/fastest/prettiest, or asking for a suggestion isn't allowed so I can't answer that, here's why. To say one ROM is better is to infer that the others are inferior in some way. This is disrespectful to the devs who spend their spare time bringing us these awesome ROMs free of charge. Each user has different tastes anyway, the best way to see which ROM suits you is to flash a few and find out for yourself. We have plenty to choose from.

Can you get into the bootloader? If you can, you can flash TWRP recovery via fastboot and flash a custom Rom with the recovery.
Yes

Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292432 . Read through and find the recovery there. It is pretty well explained there. I am on my mobile so I am not sure of the link will take you to the first page. It is on the first page. Make sure you get the correct recovery for your phone model.

That I do not know, but if my memory serves me right, there was a thread either in android development or general sections with the latest OTAs. You might wanna search for that...

You've already got the link to my index thread, but it seems you are to lazy to have a look at it. You even only need to watch for the software number and you will easily find what you are searching for.

i tried to install OTA update through TWRP recovery , but it failed
You can't flash this in recovery. Use TWRP recovery and flash the rom (not the Ota). Links are in my index thread.
Installed rom
Sucessfully instaled Viper SV rom,
but still phone did not booting,
Did you also flash boot.img of the rom in fastboot?
no

You can't get S-off, without working OS.
You don't have an OS anymore on your phone?
Are you running a custom recovery like TWRP?
Run this fastboot cmd and copy the output here (remove your imei & serial number):
Code:

I flashed TWRP and I make restore, but phone won't start anyway. Maybe need to flash new os?
Flash the stock rom in TWRP, and don't forget to flash boot.img of the rom in fastboot.
Links are in my index thread.
Make a backup in recovery (just in case) and a wipe (advanced -> everything except int & ext sdcard) before.

Something I make wrong. I flashed TWRP, then installed ViperSV, phone restarted and booted TWRP. Then I found boot.img in yours index thead.
Then in fastboot flashed new boot, but phone still booting in TWRP. What I make wrong?
You need to flash the boot.img thats inside the ViperSV.zip, not any from my index thread.

HTC One M8 Error while flashing RUU

Hello. I am not sure if I am the only one with this issue but here it is.
I have a Verizon HTC One M8. Here is the condition:
NOT rooted
NO OS installed
Stock recovery installed (Can't flash a custom recovery)
S-ON
LOCKED bootloader
Here is some other useful information:
HBoot-3.19.0.0000
Radio-1.14.20.0930
OS-6.21.605.3
Okay, so it is very possible that there is no hope for this phone, but I still feel like there could be. In the state that it is in, I have assumed that I could just flash an RUU so that I would return to stock. This wouldn't work. Every time I would try to flash it through fastboot on the device, I would get part of the way through flashing and then it would say:
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)
I have been told that this could mean that the that I have downloaded is possibly corrupt. This seems to not be the case as I have tried downloading it 3 different times. I have also checked the MD5 and they match. I have also tried flashing the RUU by using the executable version. This as well doesn't work. When I try to flash, It gets near to the end of the process and then fails with the error [132] stating that I need to find a RUU that matches my firmware (You can see this in the video linked below). The problem with this is that the RUU that I am using seems to match my firmware. Here is a copy of the txt document that is located within the rom for the RUU.
DelUserData:0
modelid: 0P6B20000
cidnum: VZW__001
mainver: 6.21.605.3
btype:1
aareport:1
hbootpreupdate:12
DelCache:1
DelFrp:1
Seeing the mainver number leads me to believe that this will work on my device. Feel free to link me to the proper RUU if this is wrong.
One other problem is that in order to install a recovery, I need access to adb. I don't have access to adb as I can't turn on USB Debugging because my device doesn't have a OS installed on it. If you have any suggestions or solutions to my problem, please let me know! Thanks!

Do you have an SD-Card?
I find the best way to do an RUU is using the SD-Card. Very safe, as power could turn off or something.
EDIT: I see in the video you tried that.
Sorry. :-/
more RUU's to try?

Hey did you find a solution? I have pretty much the same problem (Except, I do have S-OFF, but I relocked my bootloader so I still can't flash a custom recovery...)

You can. I have posted ruu mode custom firmware zips that have twrp included just for this scenario. Then you can unlock the bootloader. Your scenario is not at all the same as the above.
