Bricked my phone. Need help - AT&T HTC One (M7)

So I was flashing a kernel and the thing rebooted during flash. Now it doesn't go past the HTC boot screen with that development message in red. I can boot into fast boot and recovery, but cannot find a way to go past the boot screen. Even locked and then unlocked the phone, even flashed a rom the phone,.Any way to fix this?
Thnx

1)Word to the wise. You don't have a brick. Bricks are when you can't do anything to the phone
2)what previous posters said. Wipe cache and factory wipe and flash stock rom. If you don't have a nandroid or one on the phone use adb. Push to get it there

You can get into fastboot and recovery? That's kids play man.

Yes, I can get into fast boot and recovery. I tried fast boot, adb and nothing seems to work. Ruu for my carrier is not out yet.
So frustrated, haven't slept all of yesterday night

Ok I have a problem I flashed bulletless Rom 2.5 like I always flash roms I rebooted my phone into recovery (CWM touch) did a factory reset/wipe then I flashed the rom and everything went great I rebooted my phone and the rom booted and I went through the set up. I didnt really like the rom so I rebooted the phone with the advanced power menu into recovery but when I rebooted the phone it just hung at the white HTC screen so I thought no big deal I'll reboot the phone into bootloader then Recovery and try flashing it again but when my phone boots into bootloader and I select recovery I can see a quick glimpse of the recovery screen then the phone reboots and just hangs on the white HTC screen again??????
I tried reflashing the CWM touch from fastboot but that didnt fix it
So I tried flashing the regulat CWM recover from fastboot but still no go
Then I tried to flash TWRP recover and when I boot into that I can see the splash screen for it but then the phone reboots and hangs on the white HTC screen

I had same issue when I tried CapAlpha ROM.
Your phone isn't bricked.... Just soft bricked.
Just restore a previous backup from hboot>recovery.... Make sure u restore using the same recovery you used to backup with... Just to be safe. That may mean flashing a new recovery through fastboot.

Thats what X had as a prerequisite to flash the RUU

Can't boot any new flashed roms. Only restore works.

Can anyone help?
I'm not a noob, I've been flashing for years but I can't seem to get any Roms I flash to boot after. I just get stuck at the disclaimer boot screen. It stays there, no boot up.
Things I've tried, waiting of course for 10+ mins. Moving the Rom zips to internal sd then flashing. And redownloading the roms and trying again. Roms I've tried are, Meanrom and stock w Sony bravia engine.
Really sucks I can't figure out why I can't boot any new Rom flashes. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Sent from Mars on my Fresh EVO LTE
I'm having this exact issue. Rooted and flashed a couple of ROMs. Backed one up and now I can't boot into any new ROMs, even stock ROMs. They flash fine in recovery but do not pass the HTC disclaimer screen.
Did you by chance select Factory Reset from bootloader with TWRP installed? When I do that it reboots into recovery and cannot mount internal storage. When I try to mount internal storage to my PC through USB it says SD is corrupt and I must format. I have a suspicion that has something to do with not being able to boot new ROMs.
Have you tried to RUU? I've tried just to see if I can get my phone to boot into anything, but I get an error updating signature. Signarure (sic) Error 132.
Something I haven't tried yet would be to flash a ROM and make a nandroid before first boot, then try restoring it to see if it boots. Might be crazy enough to work.
Please post if you manage to solve this annoying soft brick!

We didn't always have s- off and people were flashing fine.. I'm still s- on and running MeanROM myself.
I have non clue what the issue here is, maybe running the ruu and re- rooting?

[Q] Stuck on boot screen

So, i updated my rom (to Elegancia 4.8, as I heard 4.9 has problems), and now I am stuck at boot. If I try to boot to recovery, the TeamWin logo comes up and then the phone reboots. How do I go about fixing this?
EDIT: Just got weirder. It fully booted, then sort of shut off the screen when i touched it. I turned the screen back on, and then it rebooted again.

Do a full wipe, flash stock kernel and try again. If that doesnt work lock bootloader again and flash stock ruu.

Full wipe from where? I can't get to recovery. It has now fully booted, but if i try to get back to recovery it kind of lags out a bit and eventually reboots into rom. I am backing up everything now. I already tried reflashing the recovery, it still just crashes when i boot into it.
if i were you i would lock the bootloader again and flash the stock ruu, after that start from scratch.

How does one lock the bootloader? I might try after everything finishes backing up.

[Q] Too much rebooting time after factory reset

Hello all
I was doing factory reset on my Samsung Galaxy y duos GT-S6102 using ClockWorkMod recovery. For this I followed these steps. After it, on rebooting the system, it's taking too much time. It has already been upto 8-9 hours and still in process and it's being annoying now
Please tell me what's the general time it takes to reboot after formatting using ClockWorkMod recovery?

Thanks for the reply demkantor. Yes I wiped my systems partition. So what to do now to get my phone start? For flashing a new ROM it requires the phone to be switched on.

So you are saying you can not boot into recovery or bootloader no matter how hard you try? The only thing you can do is boot to os and it fails?
There is no way of getting into recovery mode or bootloader?

No, I am saying that I tried both recovery or bootloader mode, it fails. And even booting in normal mode fails. The only thing I am seeing for hours while booting is the black screen with my phone name.
Unfortunately if you can't get into bootloader and have no functioning os or recovery there is nothing to do but JTAG, unless you phone has a download mode function. I'm unfamiliar with your specific phone but many samsungs have a download mode, can you get into this.

Help for my stupidity!!!

So I screwed up royally and to an experienced rom flasher its probably no big deal and an easy fix. I was in my in recovery( TWRP 2.6.3) and installed the HTC Dumlock trying to flash a rom without a computer. My Rezound is 4.0.3, and now I get as far as the Verizon 4G LTE black screen and that's as far as it will boot... I've tried to wipe and restore like I have in the past when I've screwed up and now I'm out of ideas. I think that the boot image is "corrupted" don't know if thats the right lingo but when I reboot to bootloader the image name that always came up is now different. Can someone please help me with my dilemma? Oh and if detailed description is needed about everything that I did- I kinda freaked out and panicked and I tried so many things to fix it that I don't remember all that I did.

Extract the boot.img from the ROM zip file, flash ROM, reboot into bootloader and start Fastboot, then flash boot.img via fastboot on a PC, should clear it up...
In the future I would recommend going S-OFF via rumrunner, no more need to worry about flashing boot partitions separately ever again.
Ace, you are a genius! Got the rezzie back up and running! Flashed Tachyon 1.2, flashed the boot image via twrp and it started right up! Now if I go and delete the PH98IMG.ZIP will it still die again if I reboot in the future???
