Have you tried flashing a firmware.zip by naming it 0P6BIMG.zip and putting it on the root of SD, and you the flashing process is done see if you can get into stock recovery. If that works then you can try flashing TWRP and see if it sticks.

first of all you've posted this in the wrong section.
post right section you'll get better answers. but they will need more detail how did it get like this what was you doing at the time as it looks like your boot loader is locked but you've tampered with the firmware or recovery so what exactly have you done?

nooooo do not do this as you bootloader says your s-on so this is likely not to work and may damage your device.

dw man happens to us all :good:
anway i think you need help from some experts and in right section i did a similar thing last month except managed to have a custom recovery and unlocked bootloader
I recon your best bet is to try and unlock your bootloader again have you tried reinstalling/manually installing the drivers on your computer? also does it make a sound when you plug it in? and what happens if you select hBoot?
Was you trying to return to stock when this happened?

considering your version of hboot I don't think firewater will work which means you would need to use sunshine which costs money...
You would also need to be within you system(Android) and be rooted so at the moment best thing to concentrate on is getting your device a recovery / get it to connect to a PC
If you can get your Device to show up in ADB your chances of recovering it get a lot higher

You need to use firewater s-off or if that one does not work for you sunshine s-off works but cost $25 dollars.
The issue your going to have is you can't boot at all and you said fastboot commands not working. Are you sure you have the correct fastboot and adb files in the folder your connected to?

What did you do to get your phone to this point? I need to know what you tried to do to get a better idea of how to fix it. You said the phone won't boot or go into recovery I need to figure out why so I need to know what you did.
I think your fastboot setup is wrong that's why fastboot is not working what are you typing in terminal from start to when it fails.

OK... this is what I can understand.
You relocked the bootloader for some reason then you unable to boot the phone anymore and when you try to enter recovery, it boots to bootloader again. All fastboot command doesn't work.
Now ... do you still have the unlock_code.bin with you ? You need to re unlock the bootloader then other fastboot command will work like fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and etc.

[WARNING] Flashing boot.img on S-ON devices

ROMs developers and ROMs users - be aware!​
I know this thread doesn't contain any "created" thing, but it's quite important to let every developer here know, that their boot.img flashing commands in updater-script doesn't work with S-ON devices. We didn't realize it quickly because there are no custom kernels yet. But no matter if you use package_extract_file or write_raw_image or dd command - this wont work for most users here with just htcdev.com unlocked devices.
So the only solution for now is to download custom ROM, extract boot.img from inside it if developer didn't provide it separately (like I did) and flash it in fastboot mode using following command:
fastboot flash boot <boot_name.img>
f.g.
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot_2.0.0.img
etc...
Also keep in mind that fastboot flash is the only way to use custom boot.img because fastboot boot doesn't work yet either.
I really hope we'll get S-OFF possibility soon!
Very Good!
Thanks!
Thank you mike for being with us and guiding the development..what would it be without you!!!

There are some very lucky few people who just so happen to get a factory s-off device, it's very much possible. Just highly unlikely for most people.

My device is from HTC for testing and adv (to my blog) purpose, after this I buy it from HTC directly.
So mike, please tell me, I have to flash this to my s-off device?
I had the same question because when I flashed the ROM it doesn't seem like changing the kernel name under about. Thanks for clearing that up.

Hmmm ... Seems like there is no change in name under Kernel version after flashing the kernel (fastboot flash boot boot.img). Is it that the developer hasn't changed the name of the kernel or is it not flashed properly?
What a pain to keep having to go to the computer to flash boot.img with every rom release. S-OFF needs to come sooner rather than later. Argh.

No, it's not as easy as that. He's just got the security flag set to off. We won't be able to push any different hboot's while we're S-ON. It's just a case of finding an exploit to push the security flag to off while getting around all the protection that is surrounding it.

As there are no customized kernels up to now, the devs have no reason to change name of the kernel. It's still stock kernel after all .

Mike, I guess this means nandroid restores won't work automatically either and the backed up boot.img will need to be pushed by fastboot.

Looks like the zip is signed incorrectly. If you know what I mean by an md5 sum, check it corresponds to the one the developer lists. If you don't know what I mean by an md5 sum, then try to download the ROM again and flash the new download. Which ROM is it by the way?

Slightly out of my depth here, but go to the thread demkantor posted a few posts up and read carefully, it will be very informative.
Also you appear to be using stock Android recovery, I'm not certain this is a problem but just to make sure I would find out how to use fastboot to flash clockworkmod recovery. Just Google "flash clockworkmod recovery fast boot" or something along those lines... If you already have android SDK set up, etc. Which I assume you must have being as you're rooted, it shouldn't be too difficult.
Sorry this is about as much as I can help, I'm sure demkantor will be able to help you through anything more than this.

THIS THREAD will teach you how to use fastboot to do
various things such as flash a new recovery. problem is you dont have a bootloader with fastboot
capabilities, well at least not many. do you know how the phone was rooted? if it was
done using the gfree method than you can simply flash one of the PC10IMG.zips from
post 30 in the thread linked above (done via bootloader) if not it could be an issue to use do this.
you can only flash update.zips through the recovery you have now and they more than likely would need to be signed by htc. if you dont have a working os right now then
you may need to flash an ruu (one that matches your phone) let me know where you stand on all this

Can't Unlock Bootloader for HTC Incredible 2 Verizon

I have an HTC Incredible 2 for Verizon version 2.2.1 and its is GSM Unlocked. I use GSM not CDMA. I want to root my phone to get the venom rom and version 4.0.3. I was able to get S-OFF on my phone but I am having problems unlocking bootloader. I either got the errors: COMMAND ERROR!!! or it would be stuck on "Waiting for Device". I tried to also update my version 2.2.1 to 2.3.3 but that won't work either everytime I try to update with bootloader it keeps saying wrong zip. Can someone help me out unlock the bootloader and root my phone. I really wanna root my phone and get custom roms. Please help me out. Thank You.
So, its S-OFF and you need to unlock bootloader to install Clockworkmod recovery, correct? I did it with HTC Dev's site ( www htcdev com / bootloader )
Just followed the steps and I got my bootloader unlocked, then installed recovery and ran the root.zip file from there.

This is the last help I'm giving other then that Google will be your friend. Power down the phone. Hold volume - (down) and power. This will take you to your bootloader screen. Hit volume up or down and scroll to fastboot hit power button. FIND the cwm .img from one of those threads and flash that through adb on your computer using the command given in one of those links to Root threads. You phone is S off you already had root. That's all the help I'm willing to give.

S-off is unlocking the bootloader. Basicalky taking the normal security flags or checks that happen during boot process n dropping/overriding them.

Splash Screens

You cannot access the splash screens with a file explorer.
Use the thread Thomas linked.
That sucks, is there any way to flash a splash screen only using the phone.....no pc. Terminal emulator maybe? If so would it be the same commands as using adb?

If you are s-off you can flash a PH98IMG.zip containing the splash screen.

Not on a phone without SD card.
Or do you mean in recovery?

Uhh... I definitely flashed a PH98IMG.zip in hboot before. I just put it on the root of the internal SD.
Awesome thanks for the help. Yes I'm s-off and all the good stuff. Coming from a GNEX things are a bit different.

You mean on the root of the SD-CARD....
you didn't flash it on this phone, if you did you discovered something new.
there is a reason why all the splash screens tutorials are flashed in fastboot RUU (I did a lot of testing when I first made the splash screens.). It would be great though to be able to put on root of internal using the .zip, much easier and ppl won't need a CPU.
PH98IMG is for the Rezound also..? That phone had an SD-Card Slot..
This one doesn't, I tested every # for our phone on the internal and nothing, if you can get it that'd be great, but from what I've read and seen, it's not possible on a phone without an SD-Card Slot.

Not in recovery, bootloader.
But I was like 99% sure I have flashed something in bootloader.

How would I flash it in bootloader. I know how to get into the bootloader but I don't see any options for flashing anything. The closest option I see is factory reset.

I'm pretty sure you can't do it without a pc.

[Q] can access bootloader, but there's a problem.

so, someone is selling a bricked or possibly soft bricked phone, the dude said that he was trying to unroot it and some how while he was s-on he ended up deleting the os. he says it boots to the bootloader and everything and he says that while he tries to sideload something it fails... is the phone bricked for good? or there's hope?
thanks in advance!

Collect some more answers prior to buying. But I would say as long as the display comes up and bootloader shows there is hope.
Fails while sideloading sometimes doesn't mean anything, as he has to sideload a ROM.zip while a backup would fail.

What other questions you think should be asked in order to assess the situation better? I am not a m8 guy so I'm kind of lost I just asked the basic does it still goes to boot loader because I know that's a sign that the phone might not be completely ****ed hp

I just wanted to say that maybe I'm wrong and some others should confirm what I'm saying .
But from what I learned you could re-flash TWRP in this state and first flash a custom ROM such as ViperOne using adb sideload to get it up and running. From this point one could then revert to stock using the correct backup.
Would be interesting if the
fastboot getvar all
command comes up with the version-main and which cid and mid this One M8 has.

He can run fastboot getvar all in the boot loader ?

If he is in bootloader and connects the phone to pc he can run this command using cmd on his pc as long as he has adb/fastboot driver installed on his pc.

Ask him to buy a sdcard and put a ROM.zip on it then put it in his M8.
Then boot to recovery to install ROM (he deleted his OS so I believe the custom recovery still there)

I'm gonna ask him if he can get into the recovery and see if he has a custom one. Because if he does I'm sure I could just put a SD in there and get a nice m8 for about 220.
Edit: he says he doesn't think so and supposedly tried installing one and wouldn't work.

Ask him whether he installed a GPE ROM before ... I've seen many have problem when trying to unroot or back to Sense from a GPE.
Get the fastboot getvar all info from him. If his device is on bootloader/fastboot then he should be able to run this command. If he can have this info, then it just a soft brick.
Gotta go now ...

He doesn't know how to do "fastboot getvar all" then how can he said he was unable to install a recovery ?
I still believe, nothing is wrong with his M8, other than OS was deleted with a custom recovery ... a simple fix by placing a ROM.zip on external sdcard will fix it.
Can he get a screenshot/a pic of the bootloader ?

he says a friend is the one that helped him with all that, i think what im going to do is drive up there with a laptop and try to see if i can get the command through. so as long as i get fastboot getvar all i should be good to go.
by the sounds of it, he doesnt have a custom recovery, he says they tried installing it and failed, also he said something about uploading a rom (sideload i think?) and also failed. well see when i get my hands on it probably this Monday.

That maybe the best. Get a look on it yourself. I don't think there's something wrong with it too.
Just a little bit work to be done to set it uo again.
