Hi all, I'm an android newbie. How can I know/read my current hboot version?
Thanks,
Maurizio
When the phone is off, hold the volume down button and while holding press the power button. You will see a white screen and up the top you should see your hboot version. To exit, press the power button to select fast boot and then use the volume down to select reboot
thanks I need it

Under settings > applications > remove tick right of fastboot.
Turn off, and then you hold vol- press power, still holding vol-, let go of buttons as you se the white screen. Use volume button to navigate and power button to select.
i don't know about your device, but i have to hold down power + back button on my desire

You have fast boot enabled. Either disable it under settings>applications before powering off and power on while pressing the vol down button. Or you can power off the phone, remove and reinsert the battery and power on the phone while pressing vol down. You will arrive at a white screen. 1st line tells you the HBoot version.
probably silly question, but - i've rooted my desire with unrevoked, s-offed with alpharev, my h-boot is still 0.93.0001.
Does it mean I'm still on stock h-boot? Or the other way, if I'd have cm7 or other one, would it be clearly stated in my phone's bootloader?

Yes. If you are on stock hboot, the first line in the bootloader will say 'Alpharev'. If you are on say, CM7r2 hboot it will say 'Alpharev CM7r2'

Jst restart the phone in recovery mode and u will be able to know your Hboot and Radio Version.
I haven't done this for a while but used to do this 100s of times.
I have a stock HTC rom installed without root. It is an experimental version of 2.3 that was never released.
I'm holding down the volume down button and pressing power. When I release the power button it boots normally into standard home screen.
I tried with the back button and the same thing happens.
Has anyone ran across the same problem?
Is there anyway I can boot into HBOOT without the volume down button and no root? Any apps which might help me to do that?
Thanks
afaik you press and HOLD those two buttons until the phone goes on.
Your volume down might have become faulty.
To go to fast boot mode press and hold "back key" while power up. From there press power key once more to go into hboot mode.
Regards

I think the volume down button works because when the phone is on i can control the call volume using this button. I also tried the back key to boot into fast boot but that doesn't work.
I hold the two buttons indefinitely. It's only when I release the power buttons that the phone starts booting but always boots into normal mode.
Any other ideas? thanks.
Lol try hold volume up + power

Awww damn!
I guess the only other thing I could try is to flash a different RUU.
Does anyone have a link to the stock Froyo RUU? Would flashing it over a stock GB rom work or wuold it complain that the HBOOT version is different?

Press n "hold" back, press (wait 2 second) and "release" power. Simple. You can't do it wrong. Try again please.

I am really not an idiot.
1) Press and hold power and 'back' at the same time
2) Waiting waiting waiting.... 5 - 10 seconds, nothing happens, black scren
3) Release power while still holding 'back'
4) Same thing happens with volume down and volume up

I want to install an ICS Rom. So I need to root.
To root I need to install the custom HBOOT drivers otherwise unrevoked doesn't pick up the device.
In order to install the custom HBOOT drivers I need to be in HBOOT with USB connected. Is there any other way?
K, does ur volume buttons work when phone is booted? If so, turn off the phone then pull the battery out for 10- 15 seconds then put back in, then press and hold volume down and press power button (while holding vol down) it should boot bootloader
Also make sure in
settings/power
That fast boot is not checked (if u got that option)

Wicked! Thanks!
Removing the battery made the difference. It seems that I have to remove the battery every time after power down or when I powers up it skips HBOOT. Nonetheless it works!

hi, i have a problem with my p1.
i tried to flash a rom nut something went wrong and it bricked. the preblem is that i have the stock recovery that don't allow to install new roms nor restore backups. the other problem is that i cannot acces bootloader (holding volume- and main button and release the main then it vibrates) to connect the smartphone to the pc, install drivers and emulate the cwm.
what can i do?

If you are installing drives, you are probably using windows. I am not familiar about windows, but I played a lot with this device and I never got it bricked.
You can boot to bootloader just with vol- and power button, when the phone vibrates, you can release the power button and still hold the vol- button for some extra seconds (maybe 10 is enough). Then plug the phone to the PC and try `fastboot devices`. If you can see there you devices, you can than flash the recovery you will need, however if you cannot find here your device, your drivers are not installed correctly or your device is definitley bricked.

You wrote, that you have a stock recovery. You are able to get there? Do you know which firware revision you have installed before it got broken?
If you know the revision, you can choose your version or a higher version from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40901091#post40901091, put the UPDATE.APP to [SDCARD]/dload/UPDATE.APP and try to flash. Power off the phone, than press both vol- and vol+ buttons, press power button and when the phone vibrates, you can release the power button. The stock recovery should flash your update, or it will complains about version. If you are in this stage, I think your phone is not bricked.

m8 white screen
Good evening community
I think I bricked my M8. Tryed to flash a custom ROM, unrooted and installed it but didn't liked and decided to go back to stock ROM. Went to TWRP and wiped one position more than needed - data. So now my M8 booted just into white screen with HTC logo, power off doesn't work at all, hard reset combination doesn't work, power on + volume up - doesn't work. It's always on and CMD says <waiting for device>
Who can help me?
Thank you in advance
Edit: got into bootloader, thanks to Niorun post edit.

For this phone, as long as the screen comes on, its almost certainly not bricked.
Being stuck with OS not booting is a common thing when flashing ROMs. It just happens from time to time for one reason or other. Folks that freak out about this (and think their phone is bricked) need to relax and learn some basic recovery steps.

Wiping data will not make the phone get stuck on the HTC logo screen. Wiping data just erases user data. So the phone would have just booted into the OS, but with no previous user data present any longer. Failure to boot was for some other reason.

Power + Vol Up reboots the phone, this should always function as long as the screen comes on.
Power + Vol Down to boot into bootloader similarly should always work as long as the screen comes on. Failure to do so is almost always a matter of user error, not performing the button combo correctly (either not pressing vol down fast enough, or letting go of it too early).
Power + Volume Down

Pressing Power + Vol Up does show the HTC screen for me, then it goes black.
Pressing Power + Vol down doesn't do anything.

Try it this way:
1) Reboot the phone using Power+Vol Up
2) The moment the screen goes dark to reboot and before the white HTC logo screen appears, let go of the buttons, and hold the Vol down button. Do not let go of vol down until you see the bootloader screen
3) If the bootloader doesn't appear, you either started pressing Vol Down too late, or let go of it too early. Just do the steps again until you get it right.
Clarification
I have to anticipate when the screen is going go from black to showing the white HTC logo? Then do vol down then?
htc m8 brick
i too am having issues with a bricked htc 0ne m8. We purchased the phone as-is really cheap. its freezes while booting up. i can get into fastboot and recovery just fine. i have been successful in installing ruu files but the ruu file doesn't fix the "boot loop" freeze at startup issue. The device is s-on still which sucks because i can't find a method of achieving s-off in fastboot mode. i was able to unlock the bootloader, hoping that it would help and now the ruu files won't work anyone. now i can't get the bootloader to lock through the method that htcdev.com tells me to use. ive also tried to install update through adb sideload through recovery without success.
so i have a s-on, unlocked bootloader htc m8 that i still can't get it to boot up.
any help would be appreciated.

I just timed it (in my head, not with a stopwatch), and you have about 3 seconds while the screen is black, before the HTC logo screen appears. Plenty of time to let go of the power and vol up buttons, and hold the vol down button.
The reason I say "the moment the screen goes dark" is that some folk wait too long, and start pressing vol down when the HTC logo screen is already up. By then, its too late.

What RUUs did you try?
Don't know what method HTCDev says to relock the bootloader, but as long as you can still get into fastboot mode, its simply the command: fastboot oem lock
Also, there is no other currently working s-off method aside from sunshine (which requires booting into OS) so you can stop looking for one.

Well, you say you can't get in the bootloader or recovery, have you tried to hold down the power button and volume up button, and then when the screen goes off switch to power and volume down? That should take you to your bootloader! If you can get there I would guess you would have a backup in recovery

It doesn't. The tool is very outdated, and I typically (virtually always) recommend against using it for that reason. The toolkit uses the old firewater s-off method, which hasn't worked since December 2014.
When I said there is no other working s-off method besides sunshine (and to stop looking for one), it was a statement of fact, not a guess.
I need some help, I have a m8 rooted and to make an update from htc (I have te stock rom) I have flash de stock recovery (te old one was the twrp) but now after the update de phone is stuck in the htc logo, I can enter in the fastboot but I dont know what to do and what direction I should take
Follow my steps if your phone is not booting up.
1. Lock bootloader if you have unlocked bootloader.
2. Download HTC One M8 4.16.401.10 Stock Lollipop RUU [0P6BIMG] ( search google because I can not post link since I am new forum member).
3. Rename the downloaded RUU to 0P6BIMG and send the zip file to your phone SD Card.
3.Reboot your phone in to the bootloader mode by powering off the phone and rebooting with Power button and volume down or use fastboot mode command : adb reboot-bootloader.
-This way our phone will automatically detect the RUU file that you pasted in SD card (step 3) and flash it.
Your HTC One M8 is alive

The advice given here is good, except it assumes too many things. There is the assumption of S-On, and of current firmware version. Also, if you are using ADB to reboot to bootloader, the user might as well fastboot flash the RUU.zip, or run the RUU.exe that is also available.
@W_KuP, Post the results of fastboot getvar all (edit out your IMEI and serial# ~ that's private info)
If you are indeed on WWE/International firmware, that RUU.zip will work for you. Download link here.
If you are S-On, you will need to relock your bootloader first. In fastboot: fastboot oem lock. If you are S-Off there is no need to relock your bootloader.

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
