Please help! Huge Blunder = Phone F*cked! - Verizon HTC One (M7)

Hello all- I'm in desperate need for some help! When I was attempting to wipe data on my HTC One I accidentally clicked on every single option Ugggh! I'm a moron! Can anyone please let me know how I can flash the phone to get it working again? (The phone is unlocked & S-Off is that helps at all? ) I'm using the latest TWRP but I can't even seem to get to recovery any longer either
So much thanks to anyone that can help...I'll be happy to send a donation to whom ever can help me get my phone up and running again as well-

Can you get to fastboot ?

^^^^^^what he said. Check to see if you can get into fastboot. Use the power button and volume option. Once there, see if you can select recovery. I'm not sure if twrp has an adb sideload option, but philz does. If not, mount system, adb push Rom.zip /sdcard/Rom.zip then unmount system. Back out so you can click on the install file on sdcard option and viola...

Use the ADB command he mentioned in his post.
Put your ROM file in the same folder as ADB
adb push your_rom_filename.zip /sdcard/
the push command's syntax is
adb push <source path / file> <destination path>

TWRP does have sideload feature.. when i try to do the adb sideload command it just comes back saying cant read the file i'm attempting to load.
It also appears that S-Off is now "On"
Am I screwed now that S Off is showing On?

Yes. S-on is bad at 1.57
I don't know what it restricts in your recovery, but you are not going to be able to do any of the easy fixes, like flashing an RUU, I believe it restricts you from flashing your recovery partition through fastboot also......not sure, since I never put my phone back to s-on. Maybe someone more pro than I can help. idk. S-off should stay s-off through pretty much anything I know of, minus sending a terminal command through adb/fastboot to set it to on.

Well boot into the bootloader, and highlight recovery using the volume keys, select with the power button. You should be at the recovery screen, so try flashing a rom off your sd card.

Do you have the correct drivers installed?
Unrevoked drivers is you rooted on 2.2
Revolutionary drivers if you rooted on 2.3+
Boot into recovery, select fastboot, then try pushing a boot img over fastboot. Drag and drop the boot.img into your adb tools folder. The commands would be
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
on the bootloader screen it says revolutionary
so i guess the revolutionary drivers..where can i get them?
and ima try it right now

That was fast.
I recommend moving the android sdk folder to the desktop, then rename it to android , all lower case, to make the next steps easier.
First, open the folder, go to platform-tools, you'll see 2 adb.dll files, copy and paste them into the tools folder.
Next downloas the fastboot exe binary > https://rs297dt.rapidshare.com/#!do...xe|992|R~C829F930319D3A214E1FC6C0D2ED57FC|0|0
Save that in the android/tools folder
anything in [brackets] is a comment
boot into the bootloader, select fastboot, connect to the pc via usb
next open command prompt, type in:
cd /desktop/android/platform-tools [now in the platform-tools folder]
adb devices [you should see some serial number showing it can see your evo]
we'll continue after you get that far.

How to push files in fastboot or Recovery?

Hello,
One friend of mine have flashed franco kernel, but problably the kernel was corrupted and now he get stuck at the google logo.
How can he push a new kernel to the phone memory to flash it in the recovery?
Adb push in a custom recovery or you can reflash your ROM

I tried this and it said "insufficient permissions for device" in ADB. My phone randomly rebooted and gets stuck on the boot logo, but everything on my sdcard got deleted. I have a Verizon Galaxy Nexus if that helps
If it's only the kernel causing problems, the easiest would be to run "fastboot flash boot <name of boot.img here>" from fastboot?(the original boot.img from the rom he's using would be found inside the zip file)
But if you screwed something else up in the process, you may need to flash the entire rom again from the recovery. If you are using cwm recovery, I believe it allows you to mount storage, so you can just move the rom file from the computer, and if you are using twrp, they have an option to sideload(under advanced), where you can connect you phone to your pc and run "adb sideload <name of rom.zip file here>" and it will install it right away.

this will not work, not with cwm nor with twrp, at this point; likely, it will never work as we don't have removable storage.
Then just use the sideload, it works quite well for me.

Or just 'adb push rom.zip /sdcard/', or if that doesn't work, 'adb push rom.zip /data/media'.

adb works fine with TWRP if you have updated adb drivers/adb daemon.
guess fastboot flashing images also eludes you.
so no, you're not in the grave.
*note* thanks for necroing a thread from December.
No, in bootloader its fine.
And apparently (if It wasn't a fluke) I think i booted normally , and having no rom it just stood there, and adb worked.
that saved me
TWRP dissapoints . have to look for replacement
stuck in recovery
so Im stuck in a similar situation
before installing a ROM which instructed to wipe the device, i did so, in fact i over did it.. wiped data/cache/davlik/system and internal storage
the same storage which had the ROM that i was supposed to install after wiping it.
I felt very dumb, but now stuck with the bootloader / fastboot / and TWRP recovery .. the TWRP recovery version i have HAS the adb sideload feature
which i've tried to install the Cyanogen ROM using ./adb sideload filename.zip , which hasnt work for Cyanogen but worked for the GApps after that ( I thought that was kinda weird).
the sideload command goes thru the sending of the entire ROM to the phone, but it never installs correctly..
NOW im stuck
any suggestions or help on how i can do it with what appears to me to be as fastboot / adb side load / and recovery options"??
thank you very much in advance

[Soft Brick] No OS Installed

Hi everyone, i have medium to advanced experience with flashing tools, android drivers, adb, fastboot, recovery mode and so on.
This evening once i installed the OTA Update for my Galaxy Nexus (which was running Android 4.2) the process failed at the end (as usual -.-) and i got stuck at bootloader.
I've wiped it completely ending up with no OS installed on it, nothing on SDCARD (Internal storage in this case).
The problem is that, i have no drivers installed on my PC for this phone.
I've already downloaded the latest version of Android 4.2 to flash (.zip), but there's no way i can transfer the file to the phone without the drivers.
I already tried GNex toolkit but it's stuck on "waiting adb device" (i have no fastboot drivers installed and can't install them because i can't find a easy way to do so).
NexusRootToolkit fails on pushing the zip to the phone and flash also won't work.
Any idea of what can i do now?
I may even pay on paypal for a quick help to get my phone back on working
Get into the bootloader and use fastboot, or if you have a custom recovery installed (sounds like you don't) then you can adb push from there. ADB doesn't exist in the bootloader, only fastboot. Those are your options.

Actually i do have a custom recovery which is CMW, but i can't seem to get my internal storage mounted using i'ts options.
I will try to push the .zip using the ADB on the recovery mode.
After checking the logs i can now see :
Enable to mount /usb-otg
(Using NexusRootToolkit i just flashed TWRP as recovery mode)
Solved : adb push <romname.zip> /sdcard/<romname.zip>
After the push was completed, i flashed the new .zip using TWRP in recovery mode.
Has anyone found a solution to this? Same thing has happened to me and I'm freaking out.

If you have the experience you say you have why do you use a Toolkit? Just learning for myself.
Look for efrant posts, they are the best and most comprehensive even for medium-advanced experience.
With him you will learn everything you need to know, including getting out of trouble and out of.............toolkit.
Just in case (you never know in life) do you have android-sdk installed on your pc?
Good luck in your learning curve ( I am still and will always be in it)

Yep, i do have it installed, mainly because i'm a developer myself ; )
I've solved it already, as i've said, pushing the rom using ADB.
The upgrade to 4.2.1 probably failed because i've had the phone rooted.

You are mistaken, root doesn't stop a system update. I can vouch for that myself, even though i know that it doesnt matter just from reading some people's posts around here.
You weren't exactly explicit on your first post, so I presume you didnt/dont have the correct baseband version for that specific OTA to apply. Very common.
Oh and if you've never been able to OTA update successfully, it's not "usual" for the rest of us. You should work towards becoming more verbose and objective when troubleshooting. That will make you more experienced.

Try installing the ADB Drivers manually in order for your PC to recognize it.
Have you tried putting it other modes such as Download Mode and check if your pc installs any driver?
You will have to ADB PUSH the OS image to your internal memory and use CW to flash the rom from the sdcard, but you will need the drivers installed or adb wont be able to see your phone
i have the same problem you had...
i read some stuff and installed adb, sdk and whatever...

Use "adb sideload c:\users\edgar\downloads\abc.zip". "adb push" is for transferring files from PC to phone, not flashing.

adb sideload does both transferring and flashing within a single command. The "sideloaded" ZIP gets saved as "sideload.zip" under the root of the storage.

As of now, im download the SDK DEV kit and trying "ADB Push"
Im also on a Mac for what its worth
thanks
You're better off using fastboot to flash CWM back to the phone OR use fastboot to flash the factory image to at least get it working again and then you can start again
you formatted system. there is no OS on the phone as to why its stuck on the google screen. your phone is in no way bricked.
you should be able to boot into cwm/twrp and use adb to push files to /data/media/
OR
fastboot back to stock.
Fastboot back to stock.
again thanks for all the speedy responses maybe im using adb wrong, but i need to be in recovery mode correct...

Stuck on HTC screen

My phone is stuck on the white screen where it says HTC one powered by android. When I plug it in the charger the led doesn't turn on. It's s-off, unlocked and rooted. I recently got a oneplus and I did a factory reset on the m8 and left it in the box with about 60% battery left. Power and volume down doesn't work. Haven't tried adb cause I'm at work. Is there an explanation as to why my m8 just won't go past the white screen?

Did you try a "hard reset" ? Hold Volume UP + Power Button for at least 10 seconds it should hard reboot the phone, can then immediately press Volume Down + Power to boot into bootloader.

Do you have adb installed? Maybe you could do a logcat and just share the .txt file.
Code:
adb logcat -v long > booterror.txt
(Or whatever you want to name it...)
It'll make a logcat and output it to folder where your adb is located. Enter the code and hit enter then start the device it'll start recording from the bootloader. We can check if maybe it tosses out some errors for you. Just hit CTRL + C to stop the log when satisfied.
Else you can try a restore from a nandroid backup, seeing as you already did a factory reset and probably wiped all your data

Well yeah you can do that too, I just figured you wanted to know what the problem was, hence why you said:
Is there an explanation as to why my m8 just won't go past the white screen?

It's fine either way though Yes you can just flash another ROM.

Thanks for your help. I can't flash anything right now because I'm at work. Can I flash a ROM via adb?

Yes, here is a guide to some flashing Flashing Guide - Android
Near the bottom you can see flashing for fastboot.
ROM Flashing
Obtain a ROM of your choice, and note the location on your computer.
reboot your device into fastboot mode via one of the following options.
adb reboot bootloader (requires USB debugging to be turned on).
power off the device then back on with 'vol up' + power button.
Wipe your device.
Code:
fastboot -w

Click to collapse
Your phone will update and automatically reboot into the new ROM.

Edit: Personally I haven't done it like that.

Or can I push the file into my phone using fast boot? Since I can't get into the home screen.

You can use adb commands in recovery mode.

I tried flashing another ROM and it failed. I wasn't able to get into fast boot mode.

From where did you try to run this, within the recovery? Also you were in adb folder I assume

Did it say why it failed?
If you're going with another ROM, wipe again, flash the boot.img(extracted from ROM) first then boot into recovery and flash again.

Yeah it was within recovery but I didn't do side load. I was in the adb folder. Every time I try to wipe it fails as well. It says it can't mount data. Every time I hold power and volume up it just tasked me to the HTC screen

I managed to mount data. When I try to push to sdcard it won't mount on it.

Did you mount data with adb?
Try again maybe. Place your ROM in the adb folder, open command window in adb folder. Have phone connected to computer and of course booted into recovery mode.
adb shell
mount data
adb push D:\custom_rom.zip /data/
Wait until the push finised, and restart your device to recovery again with "adb reboot-bootloader"
mount data
mount /data /sdcard
Locate the ROM .Zip file you wish to flash.
Have you tried some of the other methods in that flashing guide I linked? You could also try and reformat the SD Card and see if it won't fix whatever problem it has, of course remove the ROM first if you have it on there.
