I have tried everywhere to find a solution to this problem. Google searched many hours revealved that there are quite a handful of people that has the same problem and no one was able to give them any strong help. People were told to run RUU rom, unbrick the usb or were just told their device is bricked.
I really want t rooted device so I tried and searched many hours and with trial and error, I rooted my device.
This short guide is meant for people that has the exact same problem.
Hope it will help at least one person!
The problem was the phone getting stuck at the HTC logo before when trying to get to the screen with a phone and a warning triangle( i.e just before recovery mode) on step 7 of the "Guide to root using Windows, MAC OS X and Linux" in the "[TUT]Complete upgrading guide(root, unroot, flashing ROM & updates) " guide.
Just to make sure you guys had the exact same problem I did, I originally had a bootloader 0.75 before doing any of the steps and after running step 1 in the r5 root files, it went to version 0.8.00
Steps:
1. Go find the guide posted by Paul. Can't post outside link here. Just google it.
2. Download the files for bootloader 0.8.00 which should be the r6 root files.
3. Now extract to your C drive on your pc like you did for the r5 root files. then with your desire on the fastloader screen, connect to pc via usb and in the r6 root files, run the step 1.
4. Now attempt to go to the screen with a phone and a warning triangle which you previously couldn't. you need to get to this screen to run your step 2 on the r5 root files.
You should now be at the recovery screen!!! YAAAA!!
Now just follow the rest of "[TUT]Complete upgrading guide(root, unroot, flashing ROM & updates) " guide.
Hope it helps!! Any questions I would help out if I can!

hi mate,
I have exactly your problem: can't acces recovery - htc logo screen appear
I tried everything and didn't work.
I tried as you said with Paul R6 first step and when I want to get into recovery the logo screen just appear
just can't find a solution to bring it back.............
Not sure how it applies to this, but I had the same problem. But I cleared the dalvik cache and the user data area using the recovery menu. Then it booted fine into my custom ROM.

Which bootloader version you on now?
I am still only an noob in rooting but it worked for me... let me think what else I did...
Another question, are you on Orange as well? Starting to wonder if it's an Orange thing. Other people's root is pretty straight forward
Don't worry too much if it doesnt work out. The last resort is to do an RUU on the phone, I think. I don't think it's possible to brick an android phone.

The problem was that we couldn't even get into the recovery menu.
Not a problem with Orange users as mine was straight forward. Have you's tried this? Easier method of rooting.

does it still do the same if you try booting without your SD card in your phone?

If you are orange and now have hboot 0.8 then you must have the exact same condition I had.
Try connecting your phone to the pc again on the fastboot screen and try to run the "step1-windows" in the r6-desire-root-alt folder again.
Keep on trying!! Dont give up!!

i made the step 1 and everything was ok, no error, but still no recovery and didn't start the os, just bootloop on htc logo screen - what could it be??
# Navigate to the 'BOOTLOADER' and then 'RECOVERY' option on the menu, using the volume buttons to move and the power button to select.
# When a black screen appears with a red triangle, press and hold 'Volume Up' then tap 'Power'.
# Your device should now be at the 'recovery' screen. Select the 'wipe data/factory reset' option, then select the option to 'Apply sdcard:update.zip'. This will take a little while, so go make a nice cup of tea. When the flash has finished, reboot, and you are DONE! smile.gif

thanks mate, I know these steps, the problem is that when I press the power button (within the hboot menu on the line of recovery) didn't appear the black screen with exclamation mark, I just got in to the htc logo boot screen, nothing else !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Flash Stock RUU and start again.

You tried it without the sd card before?
If it still doesnt work, like lollylost100 says, flash RUU while it's on the fast load screen.
I'm trying to restore my desire (telus) to factory defaults using the RUU. Whenever I try to use the RUU then I get an error during the step "Waiting for bootloader." I've installed HBOOT drivers and the regular HTC sync drivers, why would it not be able to see the bootloader? Any help would be appreciated, my warranty ends in 3 days and I really need this fixed soon.

To get into fastboot, you MUST NOT boot your phone normally. You have to press and hold back button first and then press and hold power button until a white screen with three androids at the bottom appears. On this screen you should read FASTBOOT in red highlighted letters.

I know what fastboot is but I figured that it was irrelevant to my issue. Just booted into it and the RUU is working just fine. Thanks a ton for your help, I would've never thought that I'd need to be in fastboot to get it to work.

Need some help daorderdillon...I have an HTC One M8
I wanted to flash to the UNROOTED Google Play Edition...so I rooted, TWRP'ed and did the S-OFF
and then tried to flash the ROM while in RUU mode...it gave me back a "41 error"...
so I tried to change the ModelID in the android.txt file...flashed, and then my HTC One M8 kept going into the HTC logo screen with 4 triangle error screen
When I do fastboot oem reboot, it gets me back into the device - but any normal restart after, and I'm back in the HTC logo error screen
I can't go into recovery mode either - using the POWER and UP / DOWN buttons or through the software...
Stuck, and I really don't know what to do

Have you tried flashing a stock recovery via fastboot? Or flash TWRP again then flash a stock nandroid backup from the backup/recovery thread?
m8 white screen
Good evening community
I think I bricked my M8. Tryed to flash a custom ROM, unrooted and installed it but didn't liked and decided to go back to stock ROM. Went to TWRP and wiped one position more than needed - data. So now my M8 booted just into white screen with HTC logo, power off doesn't work at all, hard reset combination doesn't work, power on + volume up - doesn't work. It's always on and CMD says <waiting for device>
Who can help me?
Thank you in advance
Edit: got into bootloader, thanks to Niorun post edit.

For this phone, as long as the screen comes on, its almost certainly not bricked.
Being stuck with OS not booting is a common thing when flashing ROMs. It just happens from time to time for one reason or other. Folks that freak out about this (and think their phone is bricked) need to relax and learn some basic recovery steps.

Wiping data will not make the phone get stuck on the HTC logo screen. Wiping data just erases user data. So the phone would have just booted into the OS, but with no previous user data present any longer. Failure to boot was for some other reason.

Power + Vol Up reboots the phone, this should always function as long as the screen comes on.
Power + Vol Down to boot into bootloader similarly should always work as long as the screen comes on. Failure to do so is almost always a matter of user error, not performing the button combo correctly (either not pressing vol down fast enough, or letting go of it too early).
Power + Volume Down

Pressing Power + Vol Up does show the HTC screen for me, then it goes black.
Pressing Power + Vol down doesn't do anything.
Am I following the instructions correctly?

Try it this way:
1) Reboot the phone using Power+Vol Up
2) The moment the screen goes dark to reboot and before the white HTC logo screen appears, let go of the buttons, and hold the Vol down button. Do not let go of vol down until you see the bootloader screen
3) If the bootloader doesn't appear, you either started pressing Vol Down too late, or let go of it too early. Just do the steps again until you get it right.
Clarification
I have to anticipate when the screen is going go from black to showing the white HTC logo? Then do vol down then?
htc m8 brick
i too am having issues with a bricked htc 0ne m8. We purchased the phone as-is really cheap. its freezes while booting up. i can get into fastboot and recovery just fine. i have been successful in installing ruu files but the ruu file doesn't fix the "boot loop" freeze at startup issue. The device is s-on still which sucks because i can't find a method of achieving s-off in fastboot mode. i was able to unlock the bootloader, hoping that it would help and now the ruu files won't work anyone. now i can't get the bootloader to lock through the method that htcdev.com tells me to use. ive also tried to install update through adb sideload through recovery without success.
so i have a s-on, unlocked bootloader htc m8 that i still can't get it to boot up.
any help would be appreciated.

I just timed it (in my head, not with a stopwatch), and you have about 3 seconds while the screen is black, before the HTC logo screen appears. Plenty of time to let go of the power and vol up buttons, and hold the vol down button.
The reason I say "the moment the screen goes dark" is that some folk wait too long, and start pressing vol down when the HTC logo screen is already up. By then, its too late.

What hboot number?
What radio numer?
What CID (or original carrier version)?
What RUUs did you try?
Don't know what method HTCDev says to relock the bootloader, but as long as you can still get into fastboot mode, its simply the command: fastboot oem lock
Also, there is no other currently working s-off method aside from sunshine (which requires booting into OS) so you can stop looking for one.
I "Softbricked" my htc one m8 AT&T
i recently rooted it and made 4 back ups. I deleted two of them and tried to roboot to fastboot. but it says 'No OS installed" . My computers reconize it as a disk drive and when i click on it, it asks me to insert a disk...Please, ANYONE with information that will help, share

Download a ROM on your PC, transfer it to your extSD, put that in your phone and flash it in recovery.

Well, you say you can't get in the bootloader or recovery, have you tried to hold down the power button and volume up button, and then when the screen goes off switch to power and volume down? That should take you to your bootloader! If you can get there I would guess you would have a backup in recovery

It doesn't. The tool is very outdated, and I typically (virtually always) recommend against using it for that reason. The toolkit uses the old firewater s-off method, which hasn't worked since December 2014.
When I said there is no other working s-off method besides sunshine (and to stop looking for one), it was a statement of fact, not a guess.
I need some help, I have a m8 rooted and to make an update from htc (I have te stock rom) I have flash de stock recovery (te old one was the twrp) but now after the update de phone is stuck in the htc logo, I can enter in the fastboot but I dont know what to do and what direction I should take
Follow my steps if your phone is not booting up.
1. Lock bootloader if you have unlocked bootloader.
2. Download HTC One M8 4.16.401.10 Stock Lollipop RUU [0P6BIMG] ( search google because I can not post link since I am new forum member).
3. Rename the downloaded RUU to 0P6BIMG and send the zip file to your phone SD Card.
3.Reboot your phone in to the bootloader mode by powering off the phone and rebooting with Power button and volume down or use fastboot mode command : adb reboot-bootloader.
-This way our phone will automatically detect the RUU file that you pasted in SD card (step 3) and flash it.
Your HTC One M8 is alive

The advice given here is good, except it assumes too many things. There is the assumption of S-On, and of current firmware version. Also, if you are using ADB to reboot to bootloader, the user might as well fastboot flash the RUU.zip, or run the RUU.exe that is also available.
@W_KuP, Post the results of fastboot getvar all (edit out your IMEI and serial# ~ that's private info)
If you are indeed on WWE/International firmware, that RUU.zip will work for you. Download link here.
If you are S-On, you will need to relock your bootloader first. In fastboot: fastboot oem lock. If you are S-Off there is no need to relock your bootloader.

SOrry to know about your loss. Is your phone unlocked and rooted by any chance? If so then there are some alternatives. If not, it is much better to check with HTC support so that they will get you fresh installation if it is still under warranty. All the best.

I experienced it when I freeze user interface of HTC. It is HTC blink. When I defrost is my phone started.
To do this, I first removed SIM and microsd and re-plug them. Then from settings panel at the right top, I found Rom Toolbox and defrosted apps.

hey, check for RUU for your varient. If available flash stock RUU.
Android 5.0 is very different than 4.4, I suggest you to perform a factory reset on your phone from hboot.
Press power + vol down buttons to enter in hboot
Same problem. Phone has boot loop and not enter to fastboot.
When reconnect battery, phone go to boot loop and nothing.
Try Press power + vol down buttons, but nothing. Has solutions? Or hardware problem?
My htc desire 816 is rooted and it powered off and got stuck on android is upgrading screen
Can anyone help?
Got it solved by pressing POWER + VOLUME UP for about 20 secs, after it vibrates and light gets brighter and it will start. Before I also removed SIM and SD cards and plug them back in.

SOrry to know about your loss. Is your phone unlocked and rooted by any chance? If so then there are some alternatives. If not, it is much better to check with HTC support so that they will get you fresh installation if it is still under warranty. All the best.

This actually worked for me, i replied bcs i want to help more people with this same problem! Just do the sam thing as me and it will probably work! THANK YOU!
I recently wiped the phone from TWRP.
Now it's stuck on the white HTC logo and I can't turn off the phone, not even by holding down the power button for a few minutes!
Any ideas what I can do?
Hold volume up and power and it'll reboot
Thanks for the help! Perfect!!

I had just updated my M8 to marshmallow yesterday, and it was working fine last night, then the whole of today it was stuck on an "android is starting screen", and I couldn't turn it off or on. Thank you sooo much!
Hi,
I have the same problem. I had HTC One M8 AT&T Unlocked International Version and I unlocked the bootloader and root it. Everything was fine until I installed Viper/Venom ROM. Before installing that ROM I created a backup of the previous ROM. I didn't check on Data and I think that on the error is on that step.
Anyway I installed Viper / Venom ROM (Marshmallow 6.0.1) and wasn't able to connect to WiFi. So I decided to go back to my original ROM (Kitkat 4.4.2).
Now the HTC is in a boot loop, flickering but I'm not able to select and action. I can hold the volume up and the power button and restart the phone. But I don't know if I can get into bootloader. My best scenario is to wait until the battery runs out of energy and the smartphone turns off. I will connect the charger for some minutes and then I will turn on the device with Volume Down and Power in order to get into the bootloader. If I can't get into the bootloader I will be in a big problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,

That is just user data, you should be able to restore the previous ROM as long as you backed up system and boot. But it's also possible that the backup is just no good, causing it to be stuck with no OS (it happens).
Anyway I installed Viper / Venom ROM (Marshmallow 6.0.1) and wasn't able to connect to WiFi. You probably need to update your firmware.
So I decided to go back to my original ROM (Kitkat 4.4.2).
Now the HTC is in a boot loop, flickering but I'm not able to select and action. I can hold the volume up and the power button and restart the phone. But I don't know if I can get into bootloader. You can. Do the button combo to reboot (vol up + power), once the screen goes dark to reboot, let go of the buttons, and just hold vol down, and don't let go, until you see bootloader screen. If this doesn't work, you just got the timing wrong, either you started pressing vol down too late, or let go too early. Just repeat the sequence until you get it right.

Thanks, I was stuck in the same loop. It took a couple of tries but I managed to get into recovery
