Hi there !
I have a little problem with the JellyBean update on my rooted One X. I didn't know that I must go back to a stock recovery before doing the update so i discovered it when it refuse to do the update.
I have done some research and i find how to flash a stock recovery (i did it with fastboot) but now i'm stuck. I reboot with holding power+volume down to get acces to the recovery, then i choose it and the update icon appear but then i have an warning panel with a phone on his side (i hope you know what i'm talking about..). Now i have a boot loop and i don't know how to fix that..
I hope someone will be able to answer me !
And sorry for my english, tell me if something is not clear.
P.S: If possible, i would prefer not having to lose my data
Did you flash the stock recovery or were you stuck before that??
Yes i flash it and i get stuck after. Now when i boot i press power+volume down and when i am in the menu i choose "Recovery", a black screen with the icon update, and then the same black screen but with a phone and a warning panel on his side.

Are you sure you got the right stock recovery, did u modify something in your rom, did u change the stock kernel to custom kernel ?
did u restore to fully stock (not just the recovery)
stock rom
stock kernel
stock recovery
I have a stock rom and a stock recovery (i guess, i have downloaded a file named endeavoru_recovery_signed.img) but i don't know for the kernel, how can i check it? The only thing i did was unlock the bootloader and root the phone, does it change the kernel?
it's much easier if you just relock the bootloader and run the RUU.
I would prefer to keep my data and installed data if it's possible.

No that does not change the kernel.
Put the phone in Fastboot USB mode and Do
Fastboot getvar version-main
You might have a old recovery installed.
Ok i have the version 2.17.401.2, is it good or not?
Edit: It's the ICS version so it isn't the right recovery version, right? I have to search a 4.0.4 version? The higher version of recovery i have found is version 1.29.401.11
This is the 2.17 stock recovery
http://db.tt/U5CK4noo
If your main version says 2.17.***.** you need this recovery !
Thank you for the link, i flashed this recovery but i still have the same problem :-/
Edit: Now i can acces to the recovery menu when i press power+volume up on the screen with the warning panel. I have some error message:
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command
E:failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)
E:failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)
E:failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)
Edit 2: I forgot to say that I wipe and format some things (don't remember which one, i try to find again the tutorial that i found) but nothing that delete data.
Edit 3: Ok i find it, that's what i did:
Wipe the cache partition
Go to Advanced and wipe dalvik and batt stats
Go to Mounts and Storage and format system, then data, then cache.

The errors ...that's fine because the stock recovery can't mount the sdcard that's normal.
The wiping caused it that it not boots. You did practically a full wipe ! Do you have the RUU or a nandroid backup from the rom.
Give your cid here, we have the main version already ... going back with a ruu is the easiest now....

OMG...
Dude, you better go RUU way, really.
I assume you have a Windows computer and HTC drivers are installed on it properly.
Looks like you've lost your data and cache but you may still have the data in your sdcard, so first, try to backup them...
Launch the CWM recovery... Connect your USB cable to the phone and then in the CWM custom recovery window, go to "mounts and storage" and select "mount USB storage".
This shall allow your computer to access the storage of your phone.
You shall see a drive on your computer named "HTC STORAGE".
That is your phone storage so copy everything you think that you need.
Then...
Download the correct RUU for your phone >> http://www.htcruu.com/?dir=Endeavor
Note: One X is called "Endeavoru", if international model. Otherwise "Endeavor".
When downloaded, power off the phone.
Press Vol down and Power buttons together till you reach the HBOOT screen.
Select fastboot.
Plug your USB cable and "fastboot" will change to "fastboot usb".
From your computer, which is on the other end of the USB cable, launch command line, from the folder which you keep your adb, fastboot files.
type "fastboot devices" and hit enter.
You shall see some serial number if you have correctly installed the drivers of the phone and if it is correctly plugged.
Now, you need to re-lock you bootloader.
This is required for RUU to perform; if your bootloader is not in "locked" or "relocked" state, RUU won't perform.
Next, type "fastboot oem lock" and hit enter.
Now, bootloader is "relocked".
Now, run the RUU executable you've downloaded and follow the instructions on the screen.
This will take you back to stock status, then, without messing with it, do the 4.1.1 update from system settings and right after your first boot of 4.1.1, go to CWM recovery again and get a BACKUP.
Good luck.

Heya,
I was using the LeeDroid ROM until today, when I desided I want Cyanogen.
I backed up the phone using ROM Manager, wipe and flashed Cyanogem 6.1 RC2. The phone restarted, turned on - but it cn't load the actual android OS - just keeps restarting on the blue wheel-thing animation.
I can boot my phone into recovery, but can't do much from there since its S-ON.
The recovery windows says:
bravo pvt1 ship s-on
hboot-0.80.0000
microp-031d
touch panel-synt0101
radio-5.10.05.23
fastboot
recovery
clear storage
simlock
what can I do to get my phone working again? Will a simple restore using HTC software do the trick (followed by root with unrevoked)?
Thanks

Which version of Clockworkmod recovery did you fakeflash? There is an issue with the latest one that makes your SDcard unaccessible afterwards. It also mess up your USB.
Here is a thread that guides you how to fix it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691639
I used the latest one, 2.5.1.7 I think.
Isn't there a way to restore the phone with the HTC software, sonething lite the iphone+itunes combo?
Is your sd card not being recognzed?
As you said you created a backup using rom manager before you flashed the new rom. So why dont you just enter hboot, go to recovery and the restore youre phone to the backup that you made using rom mabager before you flashed?
When I select "recovery" using the HBOOT I get a picture of a phone, and a red triangle with an exclamation mark. Does this mean I have to do the USB brick fix?
hmmm thats odd ... sounds like it could be a usb brick related issue, im not sure as i havnt had the same problem before or seen anyone else in the forum experiencing this problem.
I think you should read up more about the usb brick fix, hopefully there is something there that would be able to help you ... if its already known that the latest version of clockworkmod does give this problem then im sure its this and you would be able to find a solution to this problem.
Good luck
UPDATE:
My bad, I was supposed to press volumeup+power to see the recovery screen.
Now, when I do that I get "E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command", and get only 4 options:
reboot system now
apply sdcard:update.zip
wipe date
wipe cache
Is this related to the USB BRICK thing?
You need to wipe data when switching roms, this will fix the bootloop.
I would also suggest you flash a permanent recovery for ease of use. You need to use unrevoked to do this.

This is the default android recovery screen. The error "E:Cant open...." is something I also get.
Do you have an update.zip on your SDcard? Like the clockworkmod recovery? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=839640Use 2.5.0.7 and not 2.5.1.2 (has the fail you most likely see now). If correct update.zip on SDcard, try to press apply sdcard. If youre able to do so, you are accessing your sdcard. If youre getting problems applying this update file. I suggest following the thread I told you in my first post You then have to make your SDcard accessible with a fastboot command.
You are accessing fastboot by holding vol down while powering your phone on. Select fastboot. Plug your USB. Download the Android SDK or only fastboot.exe. Run this command from cmd: "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0". You should get a return command like "okay", and your SD card should be accessible again. Now you will need to follow the guide and fix your USB. However, you should be able to flash a new ROM now when your SDcard is accessible again, or just restore the nandroid backup that gave you this problem to begin with
Update: post #30, weee!

When i select that I get "E; failed to open sdcard\update.zip (no such file or directory)
E: signature verification failed"
Does this simply mean I don't have that file on my card?
If so, is there a way to access the card in mass storage mode while the phone is in HBOOT?

Do you have a mem reader for windows/linux? Look if you have the file or not. If you don't have it, copy it there. If it's there, you have a problem with accessing the SDCard.
I would say, If I were you, I would try to "repair" the SDcard with the fastboot command first. Most likely, your ROM will boot again when it can read from your SDcard.
Other options would be to try to push the update file with ADB in Android Recovery. Most likely you can't push it either since your SDcard most likely is inaccessible. Try fastboot
Download Android SDK for Windows here: http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r07-windows.zip
MD5: 69c40c2d2e408b623156934f9ae574f0
Unzip the file. Open CMD, navigate to the tools folder in SDK. Issue the command.
Source: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
I ran the SDcard fix on CMD, it said "OKAY", but nothing changed in the phone's condition.
I put the SDcard on a card reader and saw there are backup files (.img) in the clockworkmod directory. how do i get the phone to recover from them?
The "update.zip" file, where can i get that one?

You can get your update.zip file from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=839640
Download the 2.5.0.7 zip file and rename to update.zip. Put on root of SDcard and apply sdcard: update.zip in android recovery. From here, go to nandroid, restore, and select your backup.
Doesn't the Update.zip file suppose to be a zipped ROM?
Not necessarily. A zip can flash a lot of different things. I'm not that much into it. But it all depends on the content of the zip file.
How do I " go to nandroid"?

Don't remember what it's called exactly. But when running update.zip (clockworkmod), you should have a restore menu somewhere...
Thanks a lot man! recovering right now.. will update when done.
About that S-ON thing, will the Unrevoked reflash option "Remove phone security" take care of this? Is there a risk in re-rooting?
I want to add some notifications sounds and the "system" folder is write protected
EDIT:
The restore works just fine!
I used this tutorial to root my HTC Desire:
http://techspalace.blogspot.com/2011/10/perm-root-htc-desire-gingerbread-233.html
Then I was using it for half a year and few days ago I downloaded LeeDroid 3.3.3 data ++ and successfully installed it but I had only 120mb free internal memory for apps with it. I was googlin a lot and i realized that Im using wrong HBoot (im newbie in that stuff). Then I found this tutorial how to flash cm7r2 hboot on desire (its required for leedroid ROM)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1223856
I followed the steps, downloaded http://alpharev.nl/PB99IMG_cm7r2.zip then I copied it to my SD card and renamed it to PB99IMG and rebooted my phone. It asked me if i want to update, i chose yes but then i rebooted and got stuck at HTC logo and white screen.
So I tried to restore my previous ROM via ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.0 but still Im stuck at HTC logo
(after restoring it says:
Restore complete!
E: Error in /cache/recovery/log
(No space left on device)
E: Error in /cache/recovery/last_log
(No space left on device)
Im not really skilled in all these things, can someone pls give me an advice how to get back on Revolutionary hboot and my old ROM or how to get this Alpharev cm7r2 bootloader working?
EDIT: Now i managed to install leedroid from sd again, but there was force closes of everything so I did factory reset and now I pass HTC logo but Im stuck at glowing "ANDROID" logo..... really need help
I think that if I would manage to get "revolutionary" back instead of "Alpharev cm7 r2" at bootloader, my old ROM backup would work.... but i dont know how to get "Revolutionary" bootloader back !
Hi,
you might want to try the following:
Download fastboot commander from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193915
Download the desired HBOOT from http://alpharev.nl/
Select the HBOOT that matches the ROM you want to install
Start the fastboot program, plug in your phone with USB (powered off) and start the phone in BOOTLOADER modus (VOLUME-DOWN + POWER)
there is an option fastboot, press it. You're now able to flash your HBOOT with fast commander.
Unzip the bravo_xxxx.zip so you get an xxx.img file. load this file in Fastboot->[TAB]Hboot, Radio & Rec->Hboot and press Flash Hboot. Wait for an OK.
Exit fastboot and go to recovery. Search for USB Mount (mount your SD-CARD to the USB) and search this SD-CARD in Windows Explorer. Copy the ROM in zip format you want to install on your SD-CARD and unmount.
Now select the option install from SD and select the zip file. Let it run and reboot.
(If you selected a rom which needs an EXT2 EXT3 or EXT4 partition, then partition this first, this is also possible in the recovery menu).
Hope this helps...

OK I finally managed to get out of that sh*t... I flashed my HBoot with fastboot commander using the Stock Bravo IMG and then I restored one of my old backups in recovery menu... now it works fine again, thank you very much
I've searched for 3 hours and nothing helped so:
I have an international HTC One X Unlocked on HTCDev with S-ON :
ENDEAVORU PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.95.000
CID: HTC__032
MID: PJ4610000
I have installed ClockworkMod 5.8.4.0 and made a backup recovery 2 days ago from it before doing anything else.
and accidentally today i did these commands:
Wipe battery stats
Wipe Dalvik cache
wipe data/factory reset
and
format /cache
format /data
format /sdcard
format /system
Of course... after rebooting... NO MORE OS BOOT UP , it gets stuck at HTC Brilliant screen and stays forever.
First thing I did was to try to flash RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.29.401.11_Radio_1.1204.105.14_release_260491_signed.exe
didn't work! it says UNKNOWN ERROR (i think not the os it wants)
then i copied all the backup folders from my computer (the backup that i've made 2 days ago) on the sdcard partition which i can accesss from clockworkmod by mounting usb (and of course it was totally empty)
didn't wirk either.
How cand i put back my OS while I still have access to sdcard, bootloader and clockwork mod.
Please help me, I'm a dummy!

lol
if you know what you are doing with explorer then you just need to drop the folder 2012-07-26.05.13.13 in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/
then restore your backup in recovery
i assume if you have done "format /sdcard and /system" then wondering why your phone wont boot, you are a dummy so i will write a dummy guide for you :laugh:
yeah, formatting /system is why it wont boot anymore
here are the things you need to do to get booting again
reboot into recovery
click on "mounts and storage"
click on "mount USB storage" at bottom
plug your phone into PC via USB cable
open up computer (assuming Windows) and open up your now blank /SDCARD
make a folder called "clockworkmod" (without quotes)
open this folder then make another one inside it called "backup"
copy your 2012-07-26.05.13.13 folder from your PC to the "backup" folder
click on "Unmount" on your phone
click on "+++++Go Back+++++"
click on "backup and restore"
click on "restore"
click on "2012-07-26.05.13.13"
click on "Yes - Restore"
once complete you should be fine and dandy again
I don't know what did you erase but inside zip you have boot.img which if you deleted somehow boot.img you can flash through adb shell. Don't ask me I don't know correct command line, but you can extract it and flash itbthrough phone. I will look for exact path for recovery zip file because i have root and nandroid back up and in next post I will give you my path.

if you know what you are doing with explorer then you just need to drop the folder 2012-07-26.05.13.13 in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/
then restore your backup in recovery
i assume if you have done "format /sdcard and /system" then wondering why your phone wont boot, you are a dummy so i will write a dummy guide for you :laugh:
yeah, formatting /system is why it wont boot anymore
here are the things you need to do to get booting again
reboot into recovery
click on "mounts and storage"
click on "mount USB storage" at bottom
plug your phone into PC via USB cable
open up computer (assuming Windows) and open up your now blank /SDCARD
make a folder called "clockworkmod" (without quotes)
open this folder then make another one inside it called "backup"
copy your 2012-07-26.05.13.13 folder from your PC to the "backup" folder
click on "Unmount" on your phone
click on "+++++Go Back+++++"
click on "backup and restore"
click on "restore"
click on "2012-07-26.05.13.13"
click on "Yes - Restore"
once complete you should be fine and dandy again

THANK YOU. especially for your patience. I got somehow desperate and didn't know how to do correctly these steps
God bless you.
Please Help
Ok, so I know I take first prize for noob/dummy of the year but I'm really hoping someone cane help.
I recently rooted my one x and tried to install Android Revolution custom rom. Got stuck in a bootloop. Managed to then flash Cyanogenmod 9 (trip's version) however had issues with bluetooth not working and random reboots. Thought i'd give Android revolution a go again but got stuck in bootloop.....again!!! So...in all my (lack of) infinite wisdom, I booted into recovery and proceeded to format everything thinking I could just drop Leedroid's rom onto the sd card and flash it from recovery.
Whilst I thought this would work, I now have no access to the sd card. I tried mounting usb mass storage and the sdcard in recovery so I could just drag and drop it frrom windows but got the following error "E: Unable to open ums lunfile (No such file or di
So, after reading through some other threads, I discovered that you could just push the zip file using adb, however, when trying this I get the error: device not found.
When launching fastboot I get
SD Checking
Failed to open usb Master mode
Failed to open usb Master mode

Failed to open usb Master mode
Please plug off USB
Hope someone out there can help.

Do you have the latst Recovery? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594819
If not, update to latest recovery and try to mount USB storage again.
Also you can try to use adb while you have the phone in recovery mode, not fastboot or hboot.
And, did you remember to flash the boot.img from fast boot after reflasnig the ROM? if not, that that is causing the bootloops.

wow, thankyou so much.
That was a relatively easy solution and got be back in the game baby!!!
BTW I gotta say, I was pretty happy with my one x before but now... I think i'm in love.
Sorry if this is off topic but was unsure where else to post. Had issues with random rebooting after certain apps launched so scrapped leedroid and tried out modaco. All seemed fine but then I was getting a reboot every time I tried to access (play, set as a ring tone or even just play) mp3's so I did a full wipe reflash of Leedroid and the same thing happens, full reboot when tying to do anything with MP3s
please help

Here is an alternative way without ruu
1-Mount usb in recovery
2-Copy this rom to sdcard
3-Factory reset
4-Flash rom
4-Start ruu and grab the rom.zip (you can find guides at xda for grabbing rom.zip)
5-Extract boot_signed.img and recovery.img
6-Execute fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img and fastboot flash recovery
recovery.img
7-Reboot and relock the bootloader
and now you don't need ruu and phone works well I tried this myself and it worked
Firstly, thanks for your sugggestion. One question though, won't relocking the bootloader also unroot the phone?

I am in a similar problem with my htc one x. I tried to flash android revolution but recovery would always tell me this;
E:can't open /sdcard/Android_Revolution_HD-One_X_8.0.0,zip
(bad)
Installation aborted
I tried to restore a backup I made from the stock system, but it just reboots shortly after showing the wallpaper. I am a real noob here and I read about updating clockwork, my version is 5.8.2.7. I do not know how to do that since I can't mount usb storage from recovery...
I really would appreciate a guide that even squirrels could follow, please
Just come across this thread, and i would like to say:
ACCIDENTALLY MY ****
There is no way you can format your partitions accidentally lmao
My phone was stuck in bootloop for 4 days. I finally relocked the bootloader and flashed my RUU. Worked perfectly after that
Hi all, I ****ed up and didn't make a backup.
I wiped the phone clean from bootloader recovery, but then realized I had forgotten to move the new gapps and cm rom to my phone.
When I plug it in, it is recognized by my computer, but the HTC MTP Device fails to work.
I can't see the phone, and therefore can't put anything on it to flash. If I mount the phone via the bootloader, it pops up in Windows and wants to be formatted.
I have been looking around and trying different things for the past couple hours, and figured it was time to ask someone who might know..
Any ideas?

I don't understand why I can't mount or access the phone. Do I not have the right drivers installed?
Is there any way to get around this and put the files on my phone so I can install any old ROM so I can boot it up again??
You need to update the drivers on your PC, there's a few threads on how to do it. You should still be able to use adb push to add files, though.
Drivers are fine ! Go in recovery and mount the sdcard as a usb mass storage device ! In the title you speak of a HTC one......so is it a ONE or a ONE X ?
Thanks for replying!
It is an HTC One X. Should I just install the Android SDK bundle? Or are there other drivers?
Android sdk bundle is good. But you have MYHTC so that's correct. You need to go into the recovery and mount the sdcard as a usb storage device, it will show the drive in windows and then you can copy a rom onto it.

Hi, so I installed the newest HTC driver (4.2) and all the SDK bundles. When I plug the phone it, it still won't recognize the HTC MTP Device. When I mount from the bootloader, it doesn't let me mount the sdcard (only the system data and cache), and Windows still shows a drive that needs to be formatted.
Do you think it's still a Windows driver I'm missing? If I go Terminal Command on phone it says
E: Unable to mount '/sdcard'
E: Unable to mount storage.
What's the option called you tap inside recovery. And what recovery are you using ?
If it's CWM you go to mounts and storage and tap the last option in that list.....then wait till it pops up on the pc
I'm using TWRP v 2.4.2.0 and I couldn't check the box for mount sdcard.
ADB push worked!
But the ROM failed. Is there anything else I'm missing?
It still says that E: can't mount.
Try this recovery please, i know this one blinded

Firstly thank you so much for taking time to help a lost stranger out!
What I did was reformat the J: drive that popped up on Windows, then I was able to put both the CM10.2 and GAPPS on the /sdcard/ (it would then mount)
I could then install both of them successfully, but I don't have a boot.img because my kernel is wiped. Will that file work as a boot.img?

Or how do I try your recover? Should I push it with adb? If so, to where?
I found two other boot.img files on the webs (boot.img and cm10.img), but I don't know how to get the phone to actually boot off them
The boot.img has to be flashed via Fastboot in the bootloader. So if you installed CM correctly via the recovery then flash the boot.img from the CM.zip ....
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
And a kernel can't be wiped via the recovery by the way. You can only delete/overwrite it via Fastboot commands

Okay! That's good
I think it flashed correctly, now I am just waiting for the phone to boot up. It's been going for about 25 minutes though. Should it be that long?
Nope not good.......make a full wipe in recovery before installing the rom.
Factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Advanced-wipe dalvik cache
Mounts and storage-format cache,data,system
Then install CM and gapps then reboot because you already flashed its boot.img

None of the ROMs I've tried have worked! I think it's because my hboot is version 1.14.

Stuck yet again.
I relocked the phone to flash new firmware, but I have CID 1111111, so I can't find anything to unlock the bootloader again.
Double sauced. Ahhhhhh
Unlock the bootloader by flashing the unlock_Code.bin file wich you got the first time when it's unlocked.
Fastboot flash token unlock_code.bin
But you really should continue this in the right forum. Flashing stuff from here may brick the phone !
Team,
I've consider myself a fairly intermediate android root user. I've been doing this for many years, and have never had an issue that I was able to get out of (with the help of the xda community, of course). I've personally never had to post a question on here because I'm always able to find someone who has a similar issue to me. Today though, I am stumped...
I've been happily running Slimkat: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2590649 for the past few weeks.
This morning, I decided to try the ElementaX kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2249774). After flashing the Kernel, my phone refused to boot up. Usually, I would just reboot into recovery and re-flash the ROM I've running (which includes the ROM's kernel). Every single time I've flashed an incompatible kernel in the past, this method has worked.
After choosing to flash the ROM, it got stuck while installing. The installation just sat there for at least 20 minutes.
Next step - I decided to wipe data/factory reset and then re-flash the rom. Data was able to be wiped, but then it got stuck on formatting cache....
So I hard reset, and decide to restore my nandroid backup - As soon as I boot up CWM Recovery, I get this message
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_install
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_install
When I tried to restore the backup, it just timed out again...
I reflashed CMW REcovery via fastboot, and even tried TWRP Recovery. Nothing seems to work.
If I try and restore my nondroid backup now, I get an MD5 mismatch.
I'm unable to mount /system, /cache and I'm getting nothing when I try and mount USB storage.
I've soft-bricked devices before (we are all careless sometimes), but I was always able to find a solution somewhere. I think I got myself into a situation that's a bit above my paygrade.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Are you sure you reflashed the correct recovery? Try this one just for kicks http://vzw1files.dyndns.org/RECOVERIES/twrp/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.4-m7vzw.img If it still dosent work, i would try an ruu.
cmlusco,
Thanks for the quick reply. I flashed the recovery - Unable to mount System or Cache and PC is not detecting any devices when activating ADB sideload through TWRP.
To be honest, I never of an RUU before. I can research the topic. If you know of any threads that could help me along the process, I would definitely check them out.
thanks again.
The RUU method worked! Thank you very much for suggesting that.
Here's what I did.
1. Download VZW RUU.zip from the following thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2428276)
2. Rename to "ruu.zip" (Optional)
3. Enter fastboot mode
4. enter "fastboot oem rebootRUU" - You should not see a silver HTC logo on your device.
5. enter "fastboot flash zip ruu.zip" - The first time you execute this command, it only prepares the flash
6. As soon as the flash is done preparing, enter the same exact command again "fastboot flash zip ruu.zip"
7. Now you'll see a little green progress bar on your phone. This does not need to reach 100%. As soon as your command window is finished, you can just "fastboot reboot".
8. You should be set back to fully stock HTC One.
Thanks again,
OMG OMG OMG... you saved me

Some of the RUU's i found the download was funky but here's the one that finally worked
http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu-zip-m7_wl_jb_50_vzw_1-10-605-10_decrypted-zip/
I was stuck in this situation... something with my cache got messed up when I tried to let ROM Manager update my CWMR... never again.
Glad you got it worked out, could you put solved in thread title it help others, thanks
