Just contact HTC and tell them to ship you another phone.
but you do have SUPER CID...so lucky in some ways.
and since u do get signals sometime, maybe its a radio issue, try flashing a rom and radio. Should be easy since ur bootloader is unlocked already.
Just flash cwm recovery, the boot.img of a rom, and the rom itself. I recommend VIPERX.

Have you attempted to flash a stock rom to the phone? Or even use GoldCard to try and restore it first? It could be (i'd hope so anyway) a bad rom flash?
When did this start happening?

it has been off since one week .. when i try flashing rom .. it get stuck @ 10 %
10%, that's a weird number... if your phone is still under warranty and you haven't debranded it, I'd send it back to HTC to see if they can fix it... just try to flash a rom and hope that you can get a stock SPL flashed to it..
I would still attempt a GoldCard flashing if you have the ability to try it.

I had a similar problem with my friend's HD7. Tried the GoldCard approach - no luck with that. Tried official HTC service but they could't help either. If your warranty isn't void you should definitly send it back - if they can't fix it you get a new phone If you really want to try replacing the motherboard I think your best best is to look for "broken" Trophies on eBay. Hope you'll have more luck than I had...
The screen broke on my phone and after replacing it, the screen desnt respond. I have searched the forums an found that I need to run the RUU update and the new component will then respond. Current ROM is stock and the bootloader is locked. Is there any way possible to find 3.18.401.1 or higher as I get 140 error when I try to flash it to a previous version 3.14.
No there is no 3.18 ruu !

There won't be any RUU leaked for the 3.18 base any soon... You will need to restore a nandroid backup to go full stock.... But I doubt whether it has got to do with the touch...

I am full stock i have no access to the bootloader, as it is locked and I cannot unlock it and add a recovery as I cannot see the process. I believe the 3.18 was ota... so i have to wait the next RUU for 4.2. Dont know whether it will fix the situation, but that is my start, as the replacemat screen is original.

Irrespective of whether your bootloader is locked or unlocked, you must be able to boot into bootloader, Hold the Power button and volume down button till the phones displays the bootloader.... They you need to unlock it, flash custom recovery, then restore the backup...
However, since your phone is fully stock + locked bootloader, it would be best if you send it to HTC under warranty!
i have to say that i dont see this as a software problem..but im only just learning about software on these phones. but i do know alot about the hardware on mobile and recon them as bit of a hobby to resell and sold loads of the one x,,anyway your new lcd wont of broke but by changing the lcd on these its really easy to blow the back light, what you need to do is strip it back down ,,,take battery out,,,plug the lcd back in to motherboard...put battery back in and turn on,,,if you can not see the boot up more than likely the back light has gone,,,did you buy a lcd and digitizer in one unit or sepreatly
After having a lot of problems with crashing apps (possibly due to corrupt storage hardware) I did one last attempt to fix it before trying to claim warranty. I installed RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.31_R_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_302015_signed.exe. It failed, but somehow magically locked my bootloader again. It is now locked, not relocked. I'm stuck with a phone that will only boot to bootloader, and it won't unlock again even though I do get the unlock screen where you have to choose yes or no. It will always stay locked, so I guess this is a brick? Anything I can do but claim warranty?
Without an unlocked bootloader you can't do anything except performing a factory reset from the bootloader.
Was the ruu even ment for you ? Does it match the outcome of
Fastboot getvar version-main

Yes it is, I've used the same RUU a week prior. Factory reset does nothing now, so I can only claim warranty at this point? I guess I will have to buy a new phone, since Dynafix (repair center) always claims "water damage" no matter what. I will still give it a try though.
Yep when the bootloader is locked and you can't get it unlocked , the ruu is your only chance.
Otherwise its warranty.....so its a company who makes money with stating all phones have water damage ?! :thumbdown:

Basically yes. Not 100%, but a lot. They have been called out on a tv show, but they aren't showing much progression. Anyway, I was on hboot 1.31 and the RUU updated it to 1.39. I think that's why it doesn't work anymore now.
Well if the ruu did run succesfully it should boot fine. Must be a hardware failure/brick somehow

I mean the RUU updated my hboot about a week ago. This time it didn't run successfully. It is also very strange that my bootloader is locked again, instead of relocked.
Yep, what some people reported in the past is that they did all this on a completely different pc.....try it. No harm can be done anymore

Unfortunately I still get bootloader version error. Thanks for your help.
Then its off for repair
Even i had a similar problem with regular crashing apps. and by regular i mean EVERY SINGLE app i opened FCd. Then the com.google.something fcd and phone would restart. Even get stuck in APX mode occasioanlly, and it all happened after i upgraded my HBOOT 1.39. Anyhow i managed to wipe my phone, install stock ROM, and relock my bootloader. Never got the "LOCKED" thing though, only "RELOCKED". Thats what i was worried that i might not get warranty. But fortunately/unfortanately, the HOX went into APX mode again, never to get out, so i gave it for repair, and turns out the service center could NOT get the phone to turn on and found the motherboard was screwed. I found another couple of users on the HOX forums whose phones got bricked and APXed after HBOOT upgrade.
ANYHOW, Service Center gave me a refurbished phone (after a month -_- ) So all good for now. My advice is Service Center.

Thanks for your comment. I'm awaiting a reply from the service center for pick up, but they are slow.
Ok, So im sending my phone in for getting the camera lens fixed, im currently unlocked bootloader on 5.0.1 GPE RUU should I RUU the phone back to stock att 4.4.4? or leave it alone? HTC told me they will evaluate the phone and I will need to call them not to touch the software part of the phone. THIS IS ONLY TO REPLACE THE BACK OF THE PHONE WITH NEW CAMERA LENS
I'm planning on doing the same but am afraid that they will send me a bill for the full phone if they see its rooted and running custom software.

Just set your bootloader flag to locked, run the RUU, and go back to s-on (only if sunshine works for you on 4.4.4). Otherwise, do the above, but stay s-off
Dear Community
I have problem with my HTC one M8 from Vodafone. One day it just get stuck at bootscreen (HTC ONE). I rebooted my phone with power button and volume plus/minus. Then I used HBOOT to factory reset the phone. It worked. My phone starts normal and I set basic settings. After reboot I get another bootloop/stuck at boot screen.
The phone has LOCKED BootLoader and is S-ON.
Software status: Official
HBOOT 3.19
firmware: 4.19.161.2
Do you have any kind of warranty ? As you have never touched the phone as in modified it ?

Yes, I have standard warranty. The phone is not modified. So I can send it to repair
Is something I can try right now to repair phone??

Only things that might break your warranty, so i won't advise to do so. If your warranty effort fails then we can take a step further here.

I have problems with official HTC service, they dont want to repair it for free.
So I am open to any suggestions to repair phone.

Why won't they? If you've not tampered with the software and it's a hardware fault they're obliged to repair/replace it under the terms of the Warranty. Or get in touch with Vodafone as it's running their software so they should also be able to help
