[Q]Cannot get past HTC One boot screen-cannot get into recovery

Hi,
I have recently installed a new ROM and then used a mod which doesn't seem to be compatible as now the phone is stuck in a loop. When the phone turns on, it comes up with the HTC-Quietly Brilliant screen then continues to the HTC One (with beats audio at the bottom) screen. It won't move past this. I have tried to get into recovery using the vol down+power button but it just repeats the above. I don't think there was a huge amount of battery (maybe around 40%) which I have read can be a problem.
What can I do to get the phone to boot? I currently have the phone on charge on the HTC One screen in an attempt to get it to work as I cannot do it when turned off however if I take the cable out, the red light stays on making me think it isn't actually charging. Any advice you guys can give would be great. I think if I can get into CWM I'll be ok
Cheers

press the volume down + power for 10 secs, and keep them pressed while it reboots untill you get to the hboot menu

Thanks. I was trying to do that but obviously let go before the 10 seconds. It did it once earlier on but couldn't replicate it. Many thanks-phone is now ok again
Cheers

Can't get past fastboot
ignore me

Try holding down volume down, then while holding it down, hold down the power button for 7 seconds until it turns off, it should then restart into hboot. I had to do it twice in a row to make it work.

Not sure what one vibe means, 5 vibes is a partition issue, 3 vibes is recovery issue. The three vibes when you press vol up and power is normal however, thats qualcom diagnostics mode. Have you tried pulling the battery and then booting? Other than that there isnt really anything you can do. No booot, no hboot, no recovery equals a bricked phone.

[Q] Need help plz phone died

Hi there
I updated my phone to jellybean yesterday i am with tmobile uk , the phone worked fine after this everything seemed to install ok.
until a hour ago, i got a phone call answered it, then hung up, i put my phone in my pocket, next time i took it out the phone was locked on the boot page the white screen with htc logo on, i tried to power it off and the the 3 buttons on the bottom of phone started to flash white for 10 seconds then phone swithed off. the phone wont turn back on, it wont charge, tried usb to computer no lights nothing. the phone was fully charged when it switched off. my phones a standard one never touched bootloader etc
i spoke to htc they think its software problem, they say when i downloaded jellybean i used 3g not wifi (my fault) this could have caused the problem as there could of been a drop in signal they tell me.
the problem i have they want 210 pound to fix and they say its not under warranty as i have had the screen replaced, but not by htc voiding the warranty.
Can anyone here give me some advice or help to fix my phone please.
thanks

Can you enter the bootloader by holding the power button and the volume - button together, keep them pressed until it enters the bootloader.

Brick maybe?

Hello there, I was installing Recovery using this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746682, I only went up to the first part of unrooting the phone where it asks me to connect my and install te recovery, my phone after the root did not want to turn on. I tried using the Volume +/- along with the home key, nothing, it just vibrates and nothing. I tried pulling out the battery and the same thing happened, no matter what I did, it vibrates and won't turn on. Also when I hook it up to the charger and try turning on it vibrates and it keeps vibrating in loops, around 2-3 sec apart. What is wrong with my phone? Please don't tell me it's a brick, I just got it yesterday ;p

I think this kit is honestly the easiest way to brick your phone. There are simply too many options, most of them have no real use for this phone, and the free version never gets updated. Honestly think it's a bad move for people who are new to the game.
To get in download mode:
Start with the phone off.
Press and hold the home button and volume down button.
Press the power button until the phone vibrates.
Release the power button.
To get in recovery mode.
Start with the phone off.
Press and hold the home button and volume up button.
Press the power button until the phone vibrates.
Release the power button.
Release the volume up and home button when the blue text appears in the top left corner of the screen.
If these won't work, you are bricked. Time for JTAG.

I agree 100%. That kit seemed pretty helpful for some when this was still pretty new, but recently it seems there are more reports of failures (or worse) than successes. When you get this fixed I suggest reading all the stickies and then take it from there.
Good luck
