Hard Restart - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have never had a phone with non-removable battery .
sometimes a custom rom is stuck before boot and we need to remove the battery for a restart.
I was wondering with this phone what will happen if it is stuck in boot logo or ... ?!

-Hold power button+Vol Down for Bootloader..
or
-Hold power button for about 5 secs for restart..

HTC decided to change things for the M8.
Hard reset is now power button + vol up for 10 seconds
Bootloader is still power button + vol down (after rebooting / powering up from Off)

Power and vol up for 10 seconds. When the screen turns off,switch to vol down while still holding power
Or,uncheck fastboot,power off. Power on holding vol down.
Or,an app like quickboot
Or,the advance power menu of some custom roms

Hm I have the same problem, just getting "RECOVERY BOOTING....".
How exactly did you solve this, I tried what wrote but still only RECOVERY BOOTING....
Edit: Ah ok, managed it, very tricky, you have to release the Volume and Home key just in the right moment while the screen cycles.

Could you please describe it furthe rhow you got it working?
I have tried:
press vol down + home + power...... the screen cycle... keep pressing the power button... release the home and vol down button... and press the home and vol down button
Should the power button be pressed at all time?
PS:
I managed to get it booting to download mode one time after flashing the rom via odin.
I then flashed the recovery.tar found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53093720&postcount=8
after that, I get this in my top left corner.
RECOVERY BOOTING.....
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING

Yeah, keep pressing the power key the whole time.
Press POWER - VOL DOWN - HOME
Screen Cycle, while the screen is off,
Release VOL DOWN - HOME, and keep Pressing POWER
And one sec after press VOL DOWN - HOME again.
And it will work.
Note it took me ~30min to get it right, so just keep trying till it works.

yes.. the power button should be pressed all the time.. after one time (FIRST) screen recycle.. release the vol down + home.. and press again vol down + home when the screen recycle for the SECOND time (dark screen)... you will get into DOWNLOAD MODE
may i suggest.. dont flash via HUB (like the one u found on your monitor).. plug your USB to the MOTHERBOARD USB PORT...

So i tried everything on this thread to get my tab out of the boot loop but nothing helps and my tab won't switch off for long than 5 seconds. Does anyone know what i can do?
You don't need to press Home button, just keep power+vol down pressed, and you will get to DL mode in like 10-20 sec
Solution/Fix: use this custom recovery: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ent/recovery-unofficial-twrp-3-1-1-0-t3635803

Turn off the phone completely press power button for about 10-15 sec then try with 1. volume down and then press power button no way to not go in bootloader. The hangs on the recovery can't broke your phone.

Still can't go to bootloader. I tried different ways. Press the power button then the vol down button. Press them at the same time. Vol down first then power button. Still stuck on the same screen even after I pressed it for minutes

After half an hour, now I can go into bootloader! What to do next ?
Edit: I flashed a new recovery. Flashed a new rom. Now all is back to normal. Thanks for your help.:good:
I was excited to wait a new ROM since in a couple of days ago, when I turn on my phone the HTC white screen is stuck when I attempted to install the new ROM (4.2.2). Even pressing the power button, volume buttons and bottom slides won't work.
Is there a chance to repair my phone?

What happened to get you to that point? Were you flashing firmware?
Does the device respond to commands over usb?

Try to hold volume up and power for 15 sec, it will turn the device off. Then you can boot in bootloader with vol down and power.

Press power and volume up buttons for about 10sec-20sec, it will go dark, quickly release both power and volume up buttons and press volume down button, you'll be on bootloader screen

@BR7fan
Actually, it is hold power and vol up, then switch to vol down as soon as the phone turns off (takes up to 20 seconds) to reboot. That will take you to the bootloader.
Power+vol down will take a screenshot, and continuing to hold power down while doing this will turn down your ringtone/notification volume.
