Re unlock your bootloader with the unlock_code.bin that you have when you first unlock the bootloader.
Re install the CWM recovery.
Put the backup to your sdcard.
Restore your backup.

THANK YOU FOR RESPONDING! I will try this

Okay, I have done step 1. This brings me the red text HTC logo screen, and bootloops

Then step 2, 3 & 4 ?
I believe you still have a CWM recovery installed, can you go to recovery ?
If can, you can skip step 2.

How long should booting to homescreen take? If it is longer than 3 mins, then no. Bootloop?

3-5 mins. wait for 10 mins.
After 10 mins still not reach the homescreen, you may need to flash a boot.img.
You can try this kernel : boot-TK-USB-201212251804.img if booting is not successful.

I am a noob, no clue what to do with that. I know how to flash, and thats about it. Still no boot.

Attached is boot flashing script.
Extract it to your desktop.
Connect your device in fastboot mode (same like when you want to unlock the bootloader)
You should see the word fastboot usb on the bootloader screen
Open the Boot_Flasher folder and run the Install Boot.img.bat
It will install the boot.img for your device.
Gotta go now.. will check your progress later.

No problem :good::good:
Now you can start again trying any other ROM that you want, read their instruction properly especially flashing their kernel/boot.img part.
When problem arise, now you know how to be back on stock (always keep your backup in a safe place)
Case closed

If bootloader is correctly unlocked using HTC DEV WebSite, you should first install a custom recovery.
Then go into recovery and do these steps:
1. Choose your rom
2. Copy Rom Zip to SDCARD (mount sdcard from recovery - usb toggle)
3. Flash Rom
4. fastboot flash boot boot.img (this is the kernel image you can extract from the rom zipfile)
5. Reboot

That is because you didn't flash the custom rom boot.img in fastboot after flashing the rom. Stop using everything at arm lenght before you do mess your device.

There is nothing wrong with your bootloader. It's been relocked. You need to unlock it again (if you haven't already by now). Then full wipe and flash a ROM in recovery. Then pull the boot.img out of the ROM and
Code:
fastboot flash boot.img
from your computer. Read, man!
Thanks Bro

There's a guide in the General forums somewhere about flashing a stock RUU to fix autorotate. I think it's linked in post #3 of the cfX thread.

HI,
I done this before but prepared myself with the document you mentioned above - still after flashing JellyTime CM10.1 R6.1 and install 100% and just left to reboot - all black and stuck. I can't start anything, no recovery no nothing. So what do I do to recover from this ? I need my phone back..
I got a HTC desire HD by the way... and rooted of course.. I had a Cold Sandwish before..

Thanks for answering !
I'm rooted and with all preconditions to be able to install a custom ROM. Just before this I had IceColdSandwich by Lord Clocan - so I guess my bootloader is unlocked. Before install of the JellyTime I used ClockWork for wipe and flash. I also updated the CWM to the latest version.

Reboot into your boot loader by holding power and volume-down. What does it say?

Nothing - BUT it could be as easy cause as the battery power is too low. Now I got it all shut down and chargering it. Before it looked shut off but no charge indication was showing.. so lets see.. Let you know in 2 hour or so.
Thanks!
/*EDIT*/
So shut the phone off entirely and charged battery completely and tried to start again - HTC reboot / splash screen and then black without any possibility to enter in CWM or boot loader. I'm getting desperate...
By the way - I tried the volume down / power button. I don't get into the bootloader.
OK.. minutes after writing this above: After having it shutdown and using volume button / power - yes I got into the bootloader. Now I'm not sure what to do - FASTBOOT , RECOVERY, FACTORY RESET , SIM LOC or IMAGE CRC ..

[Q] HOX stuck in bootloop and cannot restore stock ROM

Hi,
I've using CM 11 for a while on my HOX. I didn't have the backup of my original ROM. I didn't think I'd need to sell the phone but I wanted to and I was told to restore the stock ROM back. I thought I got the correct RUU and when I tried to flash (after relocking bootloader and erasing cache), I was told by RUU GUI that there was a bootloader version problem. Reading about it, I found that my HBOOT version is 1.72.0000 and the RUU showed something like 1.29.
After reading further I found that I was downgrading the HBOOT and for that I need to have S-OFF (I have S-ON).
I then extracted the ROM.zip file from the RUU and tried to flash the system.img and boot_signed.img files and found myself in a situation where the phone goes into a boot loader loop.
The battery has been dead and I'm also plagued by the power management bug in HOX ( doesn't charge at all and had to leave it on for days). Luckily it started charging again but since the phone goes into a bootloader loop, the battery is dying.
I found the fastboot-battery-recharge on this forum where I'm trickle charging it.
Can you help me flash the original ROM back by identifying the correct RUU (android files. org)?

Would this work when the phone is charged?
Please assist as I want to sell the phone.
Thanks in advance guys.
The battery seems to have charged a little bit and I tried the RUU mentioned above, but it doesn't run fully. I get the initial messages to accept about battery being 30% etc, and then I'm shown the current image versoin 4.17.xxx and then the "Update" button. When I click it, the RUU just closes. I'm trying to download another RUU: RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.27_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_298897_signed.exe
In case there was something wrong with the ROM..
The flashing of the second RUU failed this time with error 158. Incorrect RUU. So I went ahead and unlocked bootloader again and CM is back working now thankfully. I still don't know how to flash it with stock ROM correctly. I'm reading about downloading some Nandroid backups 3.20.x versions and restoring it.
I don't want to risk anymore, so please let me know.

You will never succsses to flash RUU no RUU for this high main version restore nandroid or install custom rom on it
Ok thank you. That clarifies about RUU flashing. I have downloaded 3.14 (VODAP0001) Nandroid from one of pages of this site and follow the instructions to flash. Hopefully I'll get stock ROM back then.
Do I need to have the stock recovery also? Is stock recovery required for OTA and when factory reset on the stock ROM it would revert back to factory state (going through setup process again)?

3.14 will not work you will have problem with the tuch will not work you need nandroid with your numbers. Yes stock recovery is need for OTA but you are with latest base I think
Ok. I think I'm having trouble identifying the correct versions then. I thought 3.14 is the bootloader version. Is that the baseband version then?
Since I have 5.1204, do I need to download a Nandroid 5.1204 version?
Can i get some help please unbricking mine i cant seem to find the correct ruu any where ive already relocked the bootloader and now ive been stuck with out a phone for 2 weeks

Ok. I think I'm having trouble identifying the correct versions then. I thought 3.14 is the bootloader version. Is that the baseband version then?
Since I have 5.1204, do I need to download a Nandroid 5.1204 version?

If you read the hole thread you will see no RUU for this main version and unlock your bootloader and flash recovery and then custom rom or nand backup with this numbers 4.17.161.3

Nandroid Backup 4.17.161.2 CID VODAP001 thanks to alextheg will this be okay its from this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140
Thant, thanks. I guess 4.17.161.3 is for me. I'll see if there's a uk based VODAP001.
I will use this: 4.17.161.2 CID VODAP001. Will follow the steps mentioned where I got the Nand backup itself.
wohoo!! I got the 'stock' ROM back!! Thanks Thant! You're brilliant! I also copied the recovery.img from the Nand backup. Can I flash that with cmd: "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"? Can I erase cache and relock bootloader to see if I get OTA? Is that the correct way forward?

you need stock recovery not this in the backup search for stok recovery for your base or download OTA and choice install later then take the recovery from OTA and flash it
Fixed!! HOX stuck in bootloop and cannot restore ROM
Perfect! I choose install later when the OTA came up on the phone, connected it to my computer and navigated to the download folder on my phone. Found the file : "OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_50_S_Vodafone_UK_4.17.161.3-4.17.161.2_release_369941".
Extracted recovery.img from the firmware.zip file within, copied to my computer, put the phone in fastboot mode and flashed the recovery using command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.
That was it. Rebooted the phone and installed the OTA without any issues!!
It back to factory state. Thanks a million Thant!!

HTC One M8. Noob needs help fixing phone.

Hello, so quite sometime ago I rooted my phone, or unrooted it. I am not sure what the term is, I dont even remember why I done this in the first place. Anyways today I wanted to just put my phone back to like it was when I got it, and in doing so I have actually broke my phone I can't get my phone to boot up anymore, I always get a message saying I have no OS installed. I am really useless with all of this so I would appreciate it if there is a patient person out there who can help me get my phone back on and back to how it was when I recieved it. I am sure I need to add more information but I dont know what so please tell me what you guys need to know and I will try and provide the answers.
This should be the first rule when asking for help.
Post fastboot getvar all result (delete serial & imei no.)
Without this info, no one will be able to offer any help

Where do I find this?
Do you have fastboot & adb on your PC ? You should have one, if not how can you install a custom recovery and root your device before ?
If you're not sure .. install this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Put your device in bootloader mode and connect to PC
Open a command prompt and type fasboot getvar all then "enter"

I think thats what you want right?.
Yes .. that's the one.
You have two options :
Option 1:
Install new stock ROM with a RUU - Download : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934555499
you need to relock bootloader - run command fastboot oem lock
run RUU (right click the RUU and select run as administrator)
you need to use USB2.0 on your PC
RUU will wipe everything on your device including your files on internal storage
Option 2:
Restore a non-rooted TWRP backup 4.20.206.1
No need to relock bootloader
No internal storage wipes
Read how-to and all the needed files are here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
Good luck .. I have to sleep now, good night

Option one just stays on updating 0/6 sending and nothing happens. Option 2 doesnt make sense to me, I really have no idea what most of it means.
Ok so this morning I tried option one again. It went through the first 6 stages fine, then it got stuck on the next set of stages at 1/7. When I restart my phone into the recovery screen type thing I have in red letters OS - (4.20.206.1) but I am still unable to start my phone up. I have disabled firewalls and also using USB2.0 when trying to do this process. Maybe this one that has been linked is not the right one for me? Or maybe I am doing something wrong?. I would really love to get my phone back working so all help is really appreciated.

You have USB/Device connection problem. First it was 0/6 and now 1/7 ...
Which windows version that you use ? try with a Win7 PC .. I don't know many people cannot run RUU on windows higher version that Win7. I don't have problem on any windows version including my current Win 10.
What do you don't understand about option 2 ? It's very straight forward.
Install latest TWRP 2.8.6.0 or TWRP 2.8.7.0 (you need to reunlock bootloader because you relocked it for option 1)
Extract and copy the backup folder to TWRP backup on your device
Restore backup .. done
Or
Just install any of Sense based ROM that available in Development thread to get your device up & running ... then you can start that option 1 & 2 again
But seeing you mentioned OS - 4.20.206.1 in red, you need to get option 1 done because the firmware installation was incomplete

Yes maybe I do but I am not sure why, maybe I need to look into seeing if my motherboard needs an update or if any windows updates are needed. I am on Windows 7 but like I said, it goes through the first 6 steps then as it boots the bootloader up again I hear the sound that my computer makes when plugging in a USB cable. However even if I leave it, it will not go past 1/7. But if I take the cable out it reconises I have done that so that makes me wonder if it is a USB problem?.
I dont understand option 2 because I dont know anything about all of this, I shouldnt have done it in the first place and I dont even remember why I did. I also must have deleted my backups as I cant find them. The part I was confused at, was which TWRP to get, then how to get it on my phone as my computer does not reconise my phone in the state it is in so I cant just go into the phone and place it. I also dont have an SD card with my phone either.
I will try updating my PC and try and get option 1 working and report back. Thank you for helping by the way, I really appreciate your patience with me.
Try also to install latest HTC USB driver.
Download HTC Sync Manager and install. Then uninstall the HTC Sync Manager but leave the HTC Driver installed.
http://www.htc.com/us/support/software/htc-sync-manager.aspx
Is there a way to wipe this OS version and try this whole thing again? I have found my 2.0 USB ports, I have tried a different cable and it still gets hung up. Only now it doesnt move past the 0/6 whereas it used to go through all of them then into the 1/7 and get stuck on this part. I also can try a different PC if need be.

That is what I would suggest.
Also, does your PC have USB 3.0 on the ports? This has been known to cause problems with the RUU.
Ok so I have done the steps suggested now, when I uninstalled the HTC Sync Manager it let the process complete. It is now on a screen which says Android is upgrading, optimizing app 17-261. Is that my phone fixed? Or is there more I need to do now that it actually has turned on?.

Looks that way. It should boot into OS after its done optimizing all the apps, which is normally pretty slow (with that many, it will take 10 or more) since Android moved from Dalvik to ART.
Well I would like to say a massive thank you for the help I really appreciate the patience and help. So thank you again. I would have been lost without you's.

Hello,
In this thread you will find the firmware for your phone. It looks like you know the process of installing your firmware, so if I were you I'd down load the proper firmware and try the whole process all over again.

HTC ONE M8 Root failed, FACTORY RESET failed, now stuck :/

Soooo....Noob right here :]
I did a really stupid thing, I tried rooting my HTC One M8. I followed the steps, and it worked fine until I flashed and rebooted. After that, the phone was stuck at boot logo, so I decided to just factory reset it, but somehow, after doing that through TWRP, it reboots > went through logo white screen > then stuck at a black screen. I waited for about 20 mins but no luck. What should I do now?

What steps?
There are a few different ways to go about rooting, plus if you don't tell us what TWRP version, stock Android version, SuperSU version, etc. we have no way of knowing what you did, much less how to help you.

Why? Did you read somewhere that this was the proper thing to do for the specific situation? Or did someone tell you? If no to both, don't make up your own solutions or try to guess how to fix things. Its a good way to make matters worse than they already are.
There is no reason to think that a factory reset would fix the issue. There is a common misconception of what "factory reset" actually does. All it does is wipe user data, nothing else. It doesn't replace the ROM, or anything like that.
I'm not sure what Android version my phone is right now (I do not know how to check), the TWRP is 2.8.7.0 for M8, the SuperSU just came with the TWRP, so I just followed the TWPR and got the installer, after that, I downloaded the Root pack or sth like that, but it wasn't automatically rebooting into root mode, so I downloaded the pack and then manually reboot it, after that, it froze on boot logo
I read the factory reset thing on a forum too. Besides wiping cache and data, I wiped the system as well, so there is currently no OS right now, and then planned to download the ROM onto an ext SD card then install it through TWRP. But right now, I still haven't find the proper stock ROM in zip file.
Thanks for your reply, I hope this information helps

No offense, but this sounds WAY out of your league., especially if you don't know how to check your Android version. It's always best to read directions thoroughly first and ask for help before actually attempting to start modifying your device.
You could always try restoring to stock using the specific RUU for your device. I had to do that recently myself in order to get S-OFF.

Do you remember if it was on KitKat, Lollipop, Marshmallow?
You unlocked the bootloader by yourself? Is it currently unlocked?
Connect phone to computer, reboot the phone to bootloader, and select FASTBOOT (if not already highlighted in red) using the vol and power keys. Then open a command prompt on the computer and type command: fastboot getvar all
Post the getvar output (delete IMEI and serial numbers before posting).
The output will help tell us the Android version, as well as other critical info to get your sorted out.

Depending on what Android build you are trying to root, the built-in root on TWRP won't work. Which is why we need to know the Android version.

Deleting the OS is usually not a good idea; and in your situation not a legitimate solution. Even if you were going to flash a new ROM, that process wipes system partition anyway, so no need to do it manually. And wiping the OS before finding the right ROM to flash was also not a great idea.
It might not have made a difference in your case (since you couldn't boot to OS even before you wiped it). But wiping system shouldn't be done unless you really have a good reason to do it, and you understand what the result will be.
I can't count how many posts I've read (and helped) that stated along the lines of "I wiped system and now my phone won't start, please help".
Hmm, thanks for that link, my Android is 5. Lollipop, I just get so confused with all the numbers on bootloader...How do you get S-OFF though? I've been trying to do that, but found no answer.

For the wiped system situation, I followed the instruction on a website on how to install stock ROM, but I'm stuck on finding a stock ROM myself, and I thought deleting the OS wouldn't make any difference.

What websites are you going to, and why? Everything you need to know about rooting can be found here.
Download this onto your PC. It's an RUU for your model and firmware version. Also, it's a direct download link, so don't click it on your phone.
After the download is finished, hook your phone up to your PC. Get into fastboot, and enter fastboot oem lock. This will lock your bootloader, which you will need to do since you are S-On.
After that, double click on the download and follow the prompts.
This will get you back to your stock state. Unlock your bootloader again via htcdev.com, use fastboot to flash TWRP2.8.7.0, then use your new recovery to flash the latest SuperSU update.zip, or simply flash a rooted ROM with that same recovery.
That's it. Fixed phone and rooted.

Thanks for your answer. If you don't mind me asking, but what is the latest stable SuperSU for my version? Is it 2.65?
Edit: After I tried to run the ROM Update .exe, it ended up with an error: ERROR [170]: USB CONNECTION ERROR, although I already connected my phone and it is currently stuck on boot screen as always.

As you are still on Lollipop, any SuperSU version 2.44 or up should be find. I think 2.46 is the latest version still labelled as STABLE.
If you were updated to Marshmallow, you would need 2.62 or higher. Those are labelled as BETA, but folks have been using them with no issues, in my understanding.

On boot screen, in fastboot mode (with fastboot highlighted in red)?
You were able to do fastboot getvar all, so I assume "yes" to the that question. So in that case, the RUU can be very finicky. Try re-installing HTC Sync, different USB port, different cable.
You might even need to try another PC. Win7 and USB 2.0 (USB 3.0 is known to cause issues) are your best bet to get the RUU to work.

Thanks a lot, I changed the port and it runs fine. The ROM is being updated right now. It says it will take 10 mins, but it has been 40 minutes and still 0/6. I'm using win10 btw. I have no win7 around.

You have connection issue .. I'm on Win 10 64-bit and no problem when running RUU.
You need to use USB2.0
Latest HTC USB driver installed - Install HTC Sync Manager - http://www.htc.com/us/support/software/htc-sync-manager.aspx
it will install the needed drivers then uninstall the HTC Sync Manager but leave the drivers.
And I always see many people with USB connection and unable to run RUU ... that's why we have nandroid backup to restore to stock.

Here all you need is in this post follow the instruction and you will be back to stock be aware that your internal storage will be wiped
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64926626&postcount=6
after that if you want to root your device flash the latest twrp then flash the latest supersu.zip ( 2.78 SR1 )

To be clear, factory reset doesn't revert anything back to stock, aside from (all it does is) wiping user data.

The error message "cannot load" means the file isn't in the right place. You need to put the unlock bin file in the same folder which contains fastboot.exe (and where you are executing the command from).

You can follow this post instruction ( skip the part of relocking bootloader )
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64926626&postcount=6
easy way :
Download the RUU.zip from the linked post and rename it to 0P6BIMG.zip then put it in your external sd card root and reboot to bootloader ( hboot )
It will ask you to update confirm it and wait for a few minutes till it finish and ask you to reboot,that's it

Bootloader info is great. But if you are asking for help, you really need to tell us more about what is going on with the phone. I gather from the subject of the thread, that your device is stuck in bootloader. But how did it get to that state? Did it just happen spontaneously (while using the phone, or when you tried to turn the screen on after idle for a while, etc.?). Or were you trying to do something, like unlock bootloader, install custom recovery TWRP, root, flash custom ROM, etc. Or some other function, like install an OTA update? If trying to flash something, provide exact details like version numbers, file names; as well as exactly what happened when you tried to install (changes to status of phone, error messages, etc.).
Have you tried anything so far to resolve the problem? If so, describe exactly what you tried, again with any applicable file names, version numbers, and outcomes (error messages, etc.).
The more specific details you provide, the better we can help you.
Stuck can't get phone to connect to PC
Hi, I have an HTC One M8 which I just got secondhand, it's stuck on bootloader screen, usual messages ('modified' 'locked' etc)... I followed the instructions for RUU flash on other posts and am all set to go, but annoyingly my phone will not connect to any PC I use....I have installed the drivers etc...I am well used to using ADB, just can't get the phone to be recognised.
I also can't boot into recovery, just ends up back in the bootloader screen again. If it does try and boot it hangs at the logo screen....
Would welcome some ideas on where to go next....

adb won't work in bootloader mode, by definition. You want fastboot for running RUU, which is related to adb, but with important differences.
As long as you are in bootloader-fastboot mode (fastboot is highlighted near the top of the bootloader screen) which is often default if phone is connected by USB, you should be able to use fastboot. Try the command:
fastboot devices
And as long as the phone's ID is returned, you should be good to go.
If the command just results in "waiting for response" or an error, try a different USB cable, or a different USB port on your PC.
Still no go... Tried connecting on different ports and with different cables but just doesn't seem to work. Best I've managed is with the Aruuwizard tool which seemed to connect but I couldn't get much further. If I run fast boot devices it returns no device... Just a blank line....
Hello. I have a similar problem with my HTC One Mini. It's stuck in fastboot mode and trying to reboot/boot into recovery or factory reset does nothing...goes black for a sec and then back to fastboot mode. Bootloader is unlocked and it's S-ON. Any help much appreciated! Cheers!
