[Q] I messed up - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was try to take my phone to as close to stock as possible but didn't have a stock recovery. I was trying to get s-off through sunshine but when i tried to go back to stock i downloaded an ing file from here and installed it using flashify and i am assuming it was the wrong one. Now all i get is the red triangle on start up. How do I flash a recovery using a mac or could some one direct me to a video?

forgot
also i was rooted and unlocked if that makes a difference. I was using twrp and viper one rom.

Get fastboot and adb. Download newest twrp img file. Boot to bootloader and click fastboot. Load terminal on Mac and navigate to directory with fastboot and img.
Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Pm me if you need more help.

Seems like you flashed boot and not recovery. You will need to flash another rom

Getting a red triangle when updating
Stock recovery
Stock Nandroid
stock boot.img
Am thinking this Rom might not be completely stock.
edit
it has superSU
So the update is failing because its a stock Rooted rom.. Why would the guy upload a nandroid and call it stock when its not.
Root is not the issue. It updates fine with root acces.
Did you flash the stock recovery after restoring. The recovery from the nand is not the stock one
https://www.dropbox.com/s/xzshnnuz3jdcodv/stock recovery 3.14.img
Try that one

Thanks just flashed now and try and update.
Same thing gets half way and red triangle shows up
Failed on
assert failed: apply_patch_check / system/framework/core.odex Loads letters and numbers here
Hmm perform a factory reset from the bootloader and try once more. If it fails after that the nand is not stock enough

Flashing the firmware itself If you can get a hold of the actual OTA/Firmware file

Good idea where would the file be located? I looked on the SD card and find no download.
Hmm download it again via the update menu and choose to install later. Then it should be on the sdcard.

Thanks downloading now
Whats the method for updating the Hboot without OTA?? never done it before.
Put the phone in the fastboot usb mode. Take the firmware.zip from the ota and put it in the fastboot folder on the pc.
Open the command window and relock the bootloader
Fastboot oem lock
Fastboot oem RebootRUU
Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Unlock the bootloader and install a clean new rom via a new custom recovery.
I recommend philz 5.15

Wrong kernel bootloop help

Any suggestion

So my suggestion is: flash a recovery like philz 5.15.9 via fastboot, enter recovery, mount the phone as external mass storage, copy there the zip of a rom, wipe data to install new rom, reboot to bootloader, flash boot.img from the rom via fastboot (erase cache before and after flashing boot.img) then enter recovery flash the rom zip and choose wipe in aroma... Then should be ok... Ask here for further infos

[Q] Lost my OS on my HTC ONE

Hi,
I wiped all my data on my phone when attempting to put a new ROM on it and now I don't have an OS. I have tried flashing a ROM using TWRP sideload and OTG, but get a failed. I hope I can gets some help to fix this problem. Thanks
If you can't find a ROM that will install you can always run an RUU. But I would try to update TWRP or try a different recovery first.

You better just ruu if you are having partition issues, ruu would be the best bet.

[Q] Bricked Verizon M9

My Verizon M9 was rooted with a Java Card. I attempted to install a rom via Twrp recovery. I erased my original rom and restarted my phone. I was unable to go to the recovery mode. I am only able to go to the download mode. What should I do? (boot loop)
You can download stock rom from HTC and start over.

Verizon doesn't provide ROM via HTC website
Did you try reflashing twrp in download mode?
Sorry didn't see that you were with Verizon. Definitely what ielvis said. Try flashing twrp again.

Root and recovery help!

I'm new to HTC process so go easy on me...(came from Galaxy S4 to m9)
I'm currently on mm 6.0 and yesterday I installed sunshine 3.3 after seeing @jcase post it was good to go for Verizon m9. So I'm now s-off and bootloader unlocked...here is where my confusion starts....and maybe I missed the thread that covered it...but how do I root and install twrp? All the methods I read were for java cards and xclips. But not sunshine...will they work the same? Also I do not have a PC with windows is there an option for Linux users...thank you for any replies, I appreciate your time and help...

That did it. Thank you. Next to flash SuperSU.
First HTC phone, is the RUU what's used to recover from bricks and bootloop? Just flash with fast boot? Like to know my options to recover before I start flashing.
