Soft bricked HTC One, HELP PLEASE - AT&T HTC One (M7)

Hi All,
I was trying to convert my ATT HTC One (Android 4.3; Hboot 1.55) to International version using the thread: [HOW TO] Convert AT&T/Rogers/T-Mobile HTC One to EU International One. (I had converted my old HTC One which I lost successfully using this thread in past.)
But when I got my new HTC One, I immediately OTA updated it to 4.3 and thus my HBoot also updated to 1.55. (I am a noob and didnt know it updated OTA will update to Hboot to 1.55 which is not compatible with revone to gain S-off. But anyways...)
So yesterday, I gained S-off using rumrunner. Had to root and install custom recovery to do that. Everything was fine until I gained S-off.
As I was S-off now, I decided to go ahead and start converting my Att HTC One to international version. So I started at Step # 4a of above mentioned thread.(I started at 4a bz steps before that are used to gain s-off using revone).
After I completed step 4a, and as menrioned in the thread, HTC One got stuck at 3/4 completed green status bar. And after that when I restarted my phone nothing is showing up. Screen is black and my computer gives me message that device connected could not be recognized. I never got the grey htc screen.
I cannot reboot into adb or recovery. if i hold the power button(10+ secs) phone vibrates. If I turn press the power button again the red led will turn on but screen is still black.
Please tell me i am not screwed and there is a way to fix this.
I really appreciate any kind of help.
You guys rock
P.S: I have searched the forum if someone has had same problem but couldnt find any, if you know any thread that already has solution to this please direct me to it.

If your on a windows 8.1 PC what happen is the RUU downgraded your hboot and windows no longer can see the phone. Most likely your phone is not dead you just need a windows 7 PC to redo all the steps of running the RUU

[Q] Bricked Hero? touch panel-fail

Hello, I have an unrooted Hero from Orange (Spain) that enters in a boot loop. I have tryed everything to restore it but with no success. In the hboot menu it says "touch panel-fail" and even if I flash again the original rom from the hboot, it still gets in a boot loop.
First of all I will explain my case.
I had the Hero rooted, with custom roms etc, but when I bought a Nexus One, I gave my Hero to my brother. In September he told me that the official 2.1 had arrived to the Hero, so he wanted it instead of a custom rom, so I just proceeded to do so. I created a GoldCard, installed the 1.5 RUU of WWE, made the two OTAs and all OK. The last week (I think) he received a new small OTA, he updated successfully. My brother went to sleep with the Hero almost charged, but when he woke up, the Hero was off. Then, when he turned it on, and after a while (15mins or so) the Hero finally boot up, but the touchscreen wasn`t working and using it with the trackball the Hero was always prompting FC of android.process.acore (every 2 seconds more or less).
After watching that, I installed the official 1.5 of Orange hoping that it will fix it, but no way. Now it gets stuck in a loop while booting after the Orange bootscreen.
I tryed again to flash the WWE version, but with my old GoldCard doesn't seem to work (incorrect cid) and not being able to boot it up, I cannot create a new GoldCard or even root it.
I have tryed a lot of fastboot comands but I can do just little things because for the most useful things I need root.
Other thing that might be good to know is that when I plug the power to the Hero nothing happens, the led is not turning on, and I don't know how much battery I still have. Thank goodness that the battery was full before I moved the Hero to this infernal boot loop.
Please I will be so thankful if anyone can help me or just giving me any clue about how can I fix this.
I had the same problem on a refurbished hero I had. It had touchpanel fail in hboot and was in a constant loop.
I managed to get it to boot into android once by installing the ruu while in fastboot mode, however the touchscreen did not work and when I rebooted the phone it went back to the loop.
I sent the phone back for a replacement. If u check my previous threads ull see the thread icreated. In it I said that it had worked as that was when it finally booted but before I realised the sgreen didn't work

[Q] Htc Hero need to revive, appreciate the help

Hello, I have an HTC HERO I got from a client to repair. The phone only vibrates and stays stuck in the image HERO. I can get into HBOOT and Fastmode manually. I tried using adb shell but the phone was not detected. I don't know if the client had it in usb debugging mode or not or even if it is rooted. So I tried flashing it with the rom in the micro Sd card. In HBoot the phone detects the image but does not flash it. Also the phone has no backup.
This is the image I am using HEROIMG_Hero_HTC_WWE_1.76.405.1_R3_WWE_release_signed.
The phone shows
HERO CVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.76.0007 (HERO 10000)
RADIO-6.35.15.14
and some other little details. Am I doing this right? Is this the correct image? I have read a bit but nothing seems to work. I truly appreciate your help. Tnx.
Did the client install an update? (Peep update)
I installed it on my phone and got the same issues
with the standard firmware.
It hangs on the green HTC logo with white background.
See this thread below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=990698
I don't know how to fix it so i finally called HTC.
Hopefully they are willing to fix it.
I got it rooted, so i hope they don't see that.
The RUU update from the HTC site doensn't work because the software
of my phone is newer.
Tnx thespeed. Hello I managed to install the ROM but it tells me "CID INCORRECT". I used HEROIMG_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.5_WWE_release_signed and renamed it HEROIMG.zip and it went through. I read that I have to do a gold card but it does not boot up. Anyone with suggestions plz.

Boot loop help

I bought a used Sprint HTC EVO 3D in ebay, knowing it had a boot loop problem as described by the seller. Before buying, I researched to see if I can possibly fix the issue, and at that time I saw a few ways to do it. Unfortunately, now that I have the phone and tried those ways, my phone is still stuck in a boot loop.
This is what I've done so far:
1) Received the phone w/ HBOOT 1.5 (unlocked using HTC method).
2) I tried to flash TWRP 2.1.1, TWRP 1.0.3, ClockWork Mod 4.0.1.4, ClockWork Mod 5.8.0.1, and 4EXT RC3. The flashing seems to work as indicated by fastboot (it says OKAY after flashing).
3) I tried launching the recovery via fastboot command line and also tried launching recovery via power cycle while holding volume button down. Neither method allowed me to get to recovery. I would see the HTC logo, and then boot loop.
Other things I've tried:
1) Relock the phone.
2) Run the latest RUU (Sprint 2.17.651.5). I also tried the PG86IMG version. Flashing seems to succeed either way. But when I reboot, boot loop is still there. ROM doesn't boot.
Other things I've tried:
1) With the relocked phone, I did the HBOOT 1.4 downgrade and was successful downgrading.
2) I ran the RUU (Sprint 1.13.651.7) after the successful downgrade as described in the downgrade method so that I can try the Revolutionary S-OFF if my ROM boots.
3) The RUU succeeds, but the phone is still stuck in boot loop. ROM doesn't boot.
Again, the only thing that seems to work is fastboot commands. Adb commands don't work since the ROM doesn't even boot up.
I'm not sure if there's anything else I can do with the phone. I'm thinking now this may be a hardware issue. But before I send it in to HTC, I'd like to get opinions from the experts out there to see if there's anything else I can try.
Thanks!!!
none
Try to plug it into your computer, open a command prompt and type.
"adb reboot recovery"
Just like you see it, that should get you into recovery so you can flash a new rom onto it. And if you can swing it, by a new one next time lol
As stated above, adb commands won't work since you need a bootable ROM in the first place.. My EVO 3d reboots right after the first HTC logo pops up.. I've also tried launching recovery via fastboot command line and via power cycle and holding volume down button and selecting recovery. Both methods just reboots the phone and reboots over and over til I pull the battery out.
exact same problems, any help?
i have the exact same problems as Alpine Man.
tired everything, and i was hoping that if i downgraded to hboot 1.4, everything would be ok in terms of bootloops, but no =[
Can anyone shed light on this, software issue? hardware issue?
Anyone have a solution for this? or just send it to htc/
Have u tried installing new custom Rom?
I can't remember the creator's name but the file name is EVO 3d v2. I used the file to fix my bootloop. It's actual use is to relock ur bootloader back and it also install the ruu file. But it worked for me.
It might help u too. Maybe give a shot.
Sent from my AWESOME HTC EVO 3D. Click THANKS if u find my post is helpful.
I tried everything... And nothing fixed it. I finally sent it to HTC. They replaced the motherboard and all is well again.
i've read almost every guide availble regarding bootloop problems. my sister's evo 3d has no problems whatsoever. mine won't boot for anything!! have to go to work now but i will try it when i get home. if that doesn't work i'll probably have to send it in too.
alpineman - does the 1 year manufacturer warranty transfer over when you buy the phone used off ebay? i got my phone in great condition on ebay, with no mention of bootloop problems =[ . i'm not with sprint. i bought the phone hoping to flash it to metro. do i call htc instead of sprint? i'm not really sure how this warranty thing works.
any help is greatly appreciated thanks!
HTC did not ask for receipt, proof of ownership, or whether I had an active Sprint contract. They went by the serial number to determine warranty status. This is the 2nd HTC phone I had to do this with. Both times, no warranty problems whatsoever.
that's great! if all else fails, i'll give them a call on monday. thanks for the help!
good news! Come came back from HTC with new motherboard, boots up nicely now. I haven't done anything to it yet.
Bad new: the battery cover doesn't sit nice and flush anymore, its kinda crooked
It's sooo minor i almost don't wanna bother with HTC, but physically it was mint when I sent it in.
Need help
Hi can any one help, I am trying to gain S-Off on my Evo 3D, hboot 1.49.0018, I have Htc sync driver (Sync Un Installed)
adb devices command works fiine and gives me the serial number
but any other command with adb or fastboot it stucks on waiting for device.
Please Please Help me.

[Q] HTC desire hd stuck on HTC boot screen

Okay firstly, hi im new to the forums.
Ive already done some research into this and i think it may be kind of bricked - not to sure though.
I started off rooting my phone around 2 weeks ago, and i played around with cyagon mod and a gingerbread rom, the problem occured with these was that they felt slow and clunky, and so i wanted to revert back to stock.
So i rooted and unrooted with AAHK.
Now i unrooted, when ever i boot up the phone, it seems to be stuck on the white HTC boot screen.
If i hold power and the volume down i can get to hboot, but if i go into recovery a phone with a red triangle appears.
So ive read the only way to fix this is to run RUU's, and i have tried a couple.
So far the ones i have tried dont seem to be working - wrong model id is the error.
How do i know which one is the right one for my phone? - I have a desire HD, which i bought from carphone warehouse and was originally unlocked.
Thanks in advance!
On the hboot screen my htc Desire HD shows
ACE PUT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-0.85.0024
MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.03.02.26_M
eMMC-boot
APR 12 2011 00:55:45
When i run a RUU - which i have searched for hoping they are correct i get the error
ERROR 130: MODEL ID ERROR
Any help on getting my phone back to stock, or working would be much appriciated
Thanks

[Q] HTC One Problem

Okay, so I just unlocked my bootloader today and rooted my phone... then got cocky and started doing things I shouldn't have (downloaded a kernel that wasn't compatible with trickdroid). Now my phone shows the HTC One loading screen then goes black. I don't get an LED indicator when its plugged in. I still need to soft reset the phone before I can get into hboot though, so it's clearly still on. Where do I go from here? I don't have a recovery file saved because I'm a noob. Helpsies.
so apparently this is a bootloop? still looking for a solution via google.
Why can't you get into hboot?
