I was able to get my VS HTC One S-Off with Firewater, thankfully.
As I was trying to load Cyanogenmod, the Wipe Cache process seemed to take way too long >30minutes. I powered down and rebooted, and then loaded the cyanogenmod stable RC zip. The phone is now permanently stuck in the cyanogenmod boot loop, with the blue arrow going in a circle.
I can't even get it to power down successfully...but sometimes it will turn off and then go back into the same loop. I have gotten it to fastboot once, but I tried to wipe all the caches/partitions again, and reboot...and same loop.
Any help please?
=============
More info:
I was able to get into CWM v6.0.4.7 recovery. I'm was able to sideload the STABLE CM 10.2 for verizon htc one...and it seems to have installed. But I'm still going into a boot loop. The loop is different for the stable version than it was for the release candidate...just a different CM logo and circle. So that's how I know the CM 10.2 stable loaded effectively. It rebooted on it's own one time after 10 mintues of looping, but still stuck.

It's the recovery, I'm 99% sure of it. I had the same issues that you described and resolved it by flashing CWM 6.0.4.4.
You should be able to find it somewhere on the forum but if not I have a copy on my FTP here: http://www.radracer.us/otp/droid/recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.4-m7vzw_2.zip
Once you flash the new recovery do a data/cache wipe as you usually would and then try loading CM once more. The data/cache wipe should be almost instant.(<60seconds)

After trying a few other roms unsuccessfully, I read somewhere about a CM11 Nightly that was very stable. I wiped everything 3 times, sideloaded it, and voila...it's working fine right now.
Thanks for all the help...I'm finally on Cyanogenmod...which has been evading my phone of choice for so many years!

Good evening everyone,
I've been scanning the forums and everyone's problems seems a little different. First of all, i was running CM10 and missed some of the sense features, so i jumped to ViperX.
1. Everything seemed fine on first run, got the snakey tail, but then i noticed it was hanging just after this with the "Htc quietly brilliant" screen and snakey long gone!
2. So i reboot my phone, this time, it just hung on the first start screen and never so much as flinched.
3. I booted into recovery (CWM) and couldn't even get there, it was like a blink of the recovery screen and then it vanished and rebooted, I wiped everything clean by doing a factory reset and tried to reboot again. Same result.
4, Flashed TWRP and managed to get into recovery mode and install ViperX again but on reboot I'm stick at that same ol' "quietly brilliant" screen, this time with no snakey.
I can get into hboot to use fastboot and into recovery in TWRP but cannot get into the OS. I'm not clear as to whether this is a problem with hboot or the way the rom is installed but any suggestions or such about how i've gone about things and how to go about getting around this problem would be great! Gracias! :good:
Did you flash the correct boot.img?

Strangely, and by the luck of trial and error, I tried 2 boot images. The first was for CM10 (again, this was trial and error) and now i've just rebooted from the ViperX one and managed to get back in. Back up in progress! Phewww!!!!
You get my thanks for replying anyhow!
Thought I would post here in effort to get faster responses.
Hi all, I was on AKOP's milestone ROM before trying to flash their newest one. I did not do anything to the kernel or anything by the way.
I'm using ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.2.7 and I rebooted into recovery and flashed super dark side wipe and then JB-MR1 and then gapps.
I went through the entire start up process with inputting your information and then finally I got into the actual home screen. I clicked around to see how the UI looked and then decided to reboot through the menu.
It was in the rebooting animation icon for at least 30 min before I decided to pull the battery. I want to wipe and start again but my cwm recovery isn't installing anything.
The phone still works as I can boot into the phone and use it. I'm trying to reboot now: power button hold>reboot, but its taking ages. Pretty much phone is "functional" but any method of trying to reboot or reboot into recovery fails
Thanks all!
Hi!
So just a quick background. I have S-OFF'd and flashed a custom ROM on my mates Desire HD few years back and have a bit knowledge about the device.
Today I showed him some of the 4.1-4.2 ROMs available for DHD. In TWRP I did a nandroid backup of his current Blackout ICS and flashed CM10.1. Everything went just fine, but the ROM was not the right for him, so I tried Venom Sense 4.1. I did a clean install on the Venom ROM and wiped everything in Aroma.
Apparently I was not focused enough and the Aroma installation failed with just the wipe. No ROM installed. Phone rebooted with no ROM and the caught stuck while booting. I thought this was no biggie and I would just restore the backup from TWRP.
Then all suddenly went to hell in a hand basket. Phone was/is unable to boot into bootloader with any vol+/- combination. It won't boot into recovery ether. Just straight into the ROM, which is not there -> bootloop.
TL;DR No ROM installed, unable to boot into bootloader or recovery. ADB/Fastboot showing no signs of connection.
Did I just buy myself a dead DHD and an angry friend?
EDIT: SOLVED. So, issue was solved by 1000 times randomly pulling the battery and pressin vol up and down. 999 tries straight booted into the OS, but 1000th try somehow got me into the hboot. No idea why or how.
So, I'm one of those right now. After extensively researching, this is what I have. I very much appreciate any help.
I installed Cyanogenmod 11 on my M8, booted into it nicely, rebooted into recovery and found that I could no longer boot back into the system. When I try to install a rom the recovery reboots. If I do succeed in wiping and reinstalling before it reboots, the phone will still not boot past the htc logo where it says dont redistribute and all that, the red text page.
I can get into fastboot, and like I said recovery is currently limited. I've tried re-flashing recoveries through fastboot, I have tried to re-flash the ROM, I am not sure what to do now.
Any help, again, is appreciated.
Thank You.
Almost every time when i reboot my phone, it's hangs at Google logo and the keeps rebooting.
Do i have to change / update the bootloader ?
The bootloader is primelc03
Thank you
Not 100% sure it's the same but I had a reboot issue when using TWRP recovery, flashing Clockworkmod recovery fixed it.
Same thing here, except it also tends to happen when shutting down. It's not a huge deal as long as I remember to check and shut down from the bootloader if this happens, but it would be nice if we could find a proper fix.
I'm running:
LiquidSmooth 7/3 Nightly
DirtyV kernel
CWM Recovery
