Try reformating your sdcard fat32 with a pc. Then place only the ruu on the sdcard and try again. Sometimes that gets it to work.

My sdcard is FAT32 , I'm tired with it
When I try do it with android-sdk I get "FAILED (remote: not allowed)"

Even though its already fat32, sometimes reformating it gets it to work.
If your getting the remote not allowed message, it means the bootloader is still locked.

Thats strange, with the bootloader unlocked you should have no issues fastboot flashing cwm recovery. Download this file http://dinc.does-it.net/Guide_Root_New_Hboot/recovery.img, and place it on your pc in the same folder as fastboot.exe. Open a cmd prompt with the phone connected. The phone should be in hboot and say fastboot usb plug in red at the top. Type " fastboot flash recovery recovery.img ".

That sounds like a bad download/corruption of the PB file, or the version of ruu you are trying to flash is older than the version on the phone. Try this one http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.15/PB31IMG.zip

Factory reset is impossible

In short, I'm trying to factory reset the phone to it's default settings, but every attempt is met with a failed attempt. Here's the specs
HTC Incredible
Android 2.2
Locked
S-ON
Hboot 1.02.000
Software: 3.26.605.1
Baseband: 2.15.00.07.28
Upgrading using the RUU file, PB3120000_Incredible_C_hboot_1.02.0000_4.08.605.2.exe, does nothing because even when it says it succeeds, the software version is the same. Tried the PB31IMG.zip method doesn't work because I get the error, "Main version is older". Going into recovery mode and resetting from there does nothing either because that fails.
The closest method I've seen which resembles mine is from this thread, but because the phone is deactivated I can't access the market to download and install rom manager to fix what could be a corrupted recovery? On top of that, I spent over an hour working with SDK, and came to the conclusion that I'm out of my depth. If anyone could point me in the right directions.
Edit: Figured out I had the wrong zip file so when I finally got it to update to 4.08.605.2 image, the boot screen is stuck at "HTC Incredible" splash screen, so I'm to assume I bricked it?

If you can get to hboot, its not bricked. Have you tried a factory reset from hboot since doing the update?

Try this ruu thru hboot http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.15/PB31IMG.zip. If that dosent work i would unlock your bootloader with http://htcdev.com/bootloader. Then flash a custom recovery. Then from recovery try to do a full wipe and a flash of a rom.

How do I get access to the sim card from my computer and install the zip if the phone won't boat? Or is there a way I can still do this through hboot?

Well to put the PB file on the sdcard you would need to remove it from the phone, and then use a pc to put the file on there. You would most likley need an adapter, as most card readers dont do micro sd. However you can use fastboot to flash a pb file. Place the PB file on your pc in the same folder as fastboot.exe. Then type the folowing one at a time.
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Code:
fastboot flash zip PB31IMG.zip
Also unlocking the bootloader, and flashing a recovery only requires the use of fastboot.
EDIT: I guess i should have asked first if you have fastboot adb and their drivers setup on your pc? And if you know how to use them?

Sorry bout not mentioning I'm still a noob at this but for the most part I'm pretty tech savvy (just with iphones shhhh), I was in the middle of updating my progress, and I just finished installing SDK and recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img, so now after installing the PB zip udate I got this message, "Failed (remote: 99 unknown fail)". What version of PB is this anyways?

The latest 4.08.605.15. Wait that is not a correct recovery for this phone. So you are unlocked now? If so that is why the fastboot ruu failed, the bootloader must be locked.

Yea I googled it not too long ago and figured that out. So what's the right version then?

I need to do some errands but I"ll be back in 30 minutes, Just letting you know in case you're waiting on me, but irregardless thanks for the help so far and I apologize having to put up with me. Bueno, ttys..

OK, I think I just made things worse. First off, I didn't know I shouldn't of unlocked it because now I instead of getting that error 99 when trying to mount the PB, I get the message saying, "bootloader err command error !!!" after I enter "fastboot oem rebootruu". And trying to mount it while it's unlocked I get the message, "FAILED (remote: not allowed)". Sad face all around. Also, those 2 links you gave me are broken or just aren't working for me, so I'll try to find other links in the mean time. But as far as re-locking the phone, I still get the same messages as above.

You can relock by typing in fastboot
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Or your saying you already tried that and it have an error?
The links should be working again.

Wait, does your hboot still have the same info you posted earlier as far as software version and baseband? In othet words are you still on android 2.2? And do you have a working recovery now?

Well you could try thay ruu in the post above, or go to recovery, do a wipe, and flash a rom.
EDIT: To flash a rom thru recovery you would need to unlock again with the bin file.
---------- Post added at 10:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 PM ----------
Lol we kind of have two different things going here, and they kind of conflict. So either stay locked and try that othet ruu, or unlock again and wipe and flash a rom with cwm.

Ok, it succesfully mounted that last image you linked to me. Only thing now after it finished on the command prompt, looking at the phone now and it's sitting there with the HTC logo, a black background, and a finished green bar. Should I just reboot it or keep waiting?

Help: Bricked Htc one M8 GPe

Hello everyone, I started to play around with all the diff things you can do with a rooted phone had plans for getting a custom ROM for my phone. Let me stat by saying that I am very new to all this.
I day ago i was getting ready to install the custom ROM for viper (ViperOneM8_1.7.1) reason being is coming from a htc one m7 with sense i wanted to get back to sense from my stock GPe m8.
I was able to unlock my bootloader and get my phone rooted I fallowed this video (How to Root your HTC One M8 - Full Guide) From Sakitech... or least I think im rooted still... I'll come back to you as to why I say "I think I'm rooted".
I thought it would be very simple just fire up the custom recovery and flash the ROM and sit back while it flashed, well everything went down hill from this point. Let me tell you what i did.
First i got to the custom recovery and I did a wipe I did advanced wipe and checked the boxes this is where I think I deleted the OS(after this I could not get back on the phone to do anything only will boot to recovery and it say no OS installed then asks if I want to get SuperSU installed this is where I already thought I was rooted but maybe on not??? I'm very confused about that
Then I used the sideload method to push the rom zip and try to flash the rom at this point I cant get it to flash. First I was getting the MD5 error I checked that off now it will just fail either saying error executing the binary from the zip or that zip is corrupted. (I tried re-downloading the ROM even from mirror link)
At this point I am very frustrated and feel helpless. I tried my best to keep from posting this and try to research to see if i can find the solution myself but I'm having no luck I have my days off from work to get my phone up and running or ill just have to go but another phone. At this point I really need some help. All I want is a working phone if i can get back to GPe stock that would be fine or make the ViperOne work.
Attempts to solve my problem: I tried flashing GPE4.4.3_m8.zip and other stock GPe ROMs nothing works
Thanks for reading and all your help I will sit nest to my comp and answer anything to try make everything as clear as possible. Thank you again

So I tried ViperOne again and it was starting to install but then fails. I searched around and I found that i need to have s-off to be able to install the ROM.
Can I get s-off from the recovery or bootloader/fastboot?

Try this :
Do a full wipe in the recovery, install viper rom but do not choose to do a full wipe in the aroma installer. Once finished you flash the boot.img via fastboot and then reboot the phone.
You do not need s-off to flash custom roms. But the GPE thingy can be the problem....

Its a stock Google play edition I bought from the Google paly store, I didnt flash any other rom the ViperOne rom was going to be the first flash on the phone

Do you have an SD reader on your laptop? You can buy a big SD that you can put a small SD card inside it, then put the ROM zip file inside the SD card, after that plug it in your M8 and flash it via twrp.
Let me know if you couldn't understand any point cuz my English is not that good.

Correct command is fastboot flash boot boot.img
status 7 means you don't have right recovery for that ROM
Also search about Stock GPE partition layout, is it same as normal non-GPE. I doubt it as I seen somewhere about people do full conversion to GPE, they need to reflash firmware to correct the partition for Sense ROM. This is what I understand from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708589

I have researched about the partition layout and I think you are right. How do i get the right partition layout? this is all a learning experience for me lol. I just hope i can get my phone working again.
In thats case then i might be worse off then i though my phone is s-on an there is no way for me to get it s-off in its current bricked state... to the the Ruu to install
correct me if im wrong but then what i have to do is just flash the stock rom for gpe beacuse since my phone was already stock GPe the the frieware(partition layout) will apcct it... right?
I want to thank everyone at the this point it looks like i have a lot of learning to do. Thank you

You should really read carefully before doing stuff with your phone, especially when you are unexperienced.
If you are unsure about anything, ask before you try messing with something and hope that it will work.
You didnt, and now you have the mess.
But now even now you are not able to follow the instructions people are giving you.

The post says to try it a few times but still giving me the say error

[Q] Bootloader Not Unlocking?

I got a m8 yesterday after switching to T-mobile and I would really like to unlock/root/mod it. I've rooted other phones before and haven't had this much trouble with them.
I get through all of the steps, run fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin which runs fine (gives option to unlock or not, I select yes with the power button) and reboots the phone. The phone is wiped as it's supposed to be, and I turn off the fast boot and turn on usb debugging in the options after the basic set up. When I boot it into fastboot to install the recovery, it still says *** LOCKED *** at the top of the screen, and I get this when I try to install it
XXX-Inspiron-N5010:~/Downloads/fastboot$ sudo fastboot flash recovery Recovery.img

I've tried this on two different computers and with different recovery files, one running Windows 8 and the other Ubuntu five times and I can't find anyone else that has had the same problem. I would appreciate any help with this as it's getting quite frustrating

Ditt0 - I have the same problem

I'm experiencing the same thing. Can't flash recovery. Have followed instructions to Unlock bootloader through HTCdev and have gone through the process numerous times on different machines without any apparent error. Please help!

Dumb question #1
Have you tried different USB ports just to zero out all variables

I would ask in the T-Mobile forum only cause you might find an answer faster
