Hold down power+vol up until the phone reboots.
AS SOON AS THE SCREEN GOES BLACK switch from vol up to vol down. That will take you to bootloader, where you will be able to enter recovery from. (select hboot for the recovery option)

unfortunately when I hold down power+vol down it will turn off without any attention !
but I find the solution ! I drained the battery then connected it to the charger. When the screen is showing the battery charge progress image I held down power+vol down and the bootloader appeared !
Thanks @xunholyx :good: :laugh:

That's because you didn't hold power + vol up first. That forces a reboot. The power + vol down for bootloader only works when the phone is off.
When you force the reboot, you can get to bootloader by switching to vol up immediately, so that the phone doesn't have time to get to the boot up stage.

I held P+U first , the white screen appeared including "htc logo in center" and "red warning sentence for using outside of HTC in bottom of the screen" . it took time only 3 second and after the phone immediately turned off. I held down P+VD whenever at those 3 sec (before,after, middle,start,end and whenever) but it never take me to bootloader .

Then you did it wrong.
It could take up to 20 seconds to force a reboot with power + vol up. What I said to do always works while your phone is still powered up.
If it is off, then just hold power + vol down.
If it booted to the startup screen right away with P+U, then your phone was probably already powered off.

yeah , my first post indicates the phone is always powered off and I can't turn it on unless I hold down P+U . It means that the phone already powered off . I blame me for my poor English , excuse me for confusing sentences . I knew I am not clear ...

I am going to install a new rom, so i superwipe all the things, then when I should choose a new rom to install, I accidentially press the "reboot system". Sign,.....now the phone is bricked? I can't go into the bootloader by pressing the vol down and power.
Even I hold the power button for ten seconds, it just power off and the power on automatically and stay at the htc white screen.
what can i do?

No, hold power for 10 seconds to force a reboot. As soon as your phone powers down, press and hold vol down, keep holding and you should enter hboot. It might take a couple of attempts to get it right.

Spot on keep trying we have all been there don't give up you will eventually get into fastboot
How do people not know the basics?? This is simple stuff
Cos they don't read. Although I remember when I first got my desire a couple of years ago, and rooted it, I was crapping myself that I might be killing it, esp as revolutionary and cwm didn't work with the erase size of 40000 I had on mine, (too late, flashed it) oops.. But that didn't stop me reading and searching, all the info is out there people, what ever you do has most likely been done a million times before. (and fixed).

Only assume your phone is bricked if you can't turn it on, or the bootloader gives you a critical error

Well mine won't turn on, battery is dead, and when I'm able to enter bootloader to check battery voltage I'm not able to charge it beyond 3543 volts or something.
Sometimes the bootloader gives weird errore like memory addresses or denied or something.
What can I do then?
The notification led blinks red sometimes, it never stays permanent red. And the sd sometimes fails as well, when I manage to enter recovery (which is not really often)

I have the same issue and cannnot get into fastboot either. I think it has to do with the fastboot option which was enabled... Is there any way to get into fastboot? Or should i give up trying...?
Press and hold the power button. Once the screen goes off press AND HOLD the volume down button and it'll boot into HBOOT. Then press power once to get into FASTBOOT (or select recovery to go into CWM)

Hi, thanks for your reply. The problem actually is I cannot get into HBOOT. I've tried about 50 times, the only thing which displays is the brilliant HTC logo screen. I notice when I hold the powerbutton the softkeys are flashing 6 times before it goes black... When it goes black i'll press and HOLD the VOL DOWN key, but still no hboot

Keep pressing power button+volume down untill it gets into bootloader.
Don't let go at any point.
Just hold them pushed TOGETHER for as long as it takes. You WILL get into bootloader or else I'm afraid something is broken...

Is this problem called as 'bricked'..?? oh..come on..
Hi All, I have read quite a few threads to try and help me but seem to have bricked my phone.
I was in the process of flashing my phone to ARHD.
I got all the way through and now seem to be stuck at the HTC Quietly brilliant screen following a reboot from Recovery mode.
When I try and go back into fast boot or recovery it will not let me it just goes back to HTC quietly brilliant.
As I cant turn the phone off totally, What can I do to force it into fast boot,
The phone is a HTC_001 and was fully up to date with the stock SW b4 i started to play.
Just to confirm once again, phone will NOT boot into fastboot or recovery following a failed flash to ARHD and phone is stuck on quietly brilliant screen.
Please help. Thanks in advance.
to enter fastboot, hold power for like 10-15s causing phone to force restart....then once screen is completely black, release power and press and hold volume down until u see bootloader screen....then enter fastboot...
have u made a backup of ur stock rom before experimenting???
seems like u have not flashed the boot.img in fastboot....
give some details...
Hi mihirengg19
Tried that but just shakes and goes back to the quietly brilliant screen and to your other questions NO and NO
Any more idea's apart from using a sledge hammer ? lol
just try again....now hold (power+vol down)....or repeat what i said above...
hi again mihirengg19
Ok holding power and vol - down together.
after a few seconds the soft buttons flash, screen goes black
I release the power button. Phone Vibrates I release vol - and HTC Quietly brilliant comes back onto the screen. tried this about 30+ times now always same result.
u must be doing something wrong....u should be able to enter into bootloader...

I know, this is what is worrying me, at the current rate the battery will be flat in no time as the screen is on max brightness, is it best to leave it go flat so it turns off completely ?
just tried it another 2 times now, still the same. ? holding down the VOL - (bottom rocker button) still locked on the HTC screen
u can try this-when the phone drains down,plug it into the wall. see if the recovery screen appears...

Which ARHD are you trying to install, 16? Did you update your bootloader to 1.3x?

ok, Hold power down only for 10 seconds, keep holding until the buttons flash and the screen goes black, then release power and immediately hold power down the phone should then boot into fastboot mode
I would also suggest 'adb reboot recovery' from command Prompt while stuck.. Or 'adb reboot bootloader' followed by 'fastboot erase cache'. Maybe reflash boot.img and erase cache again...

Not sure if this will help at all, but in this post you said when the screen goes black you released the power button. Maybe try and hold both buttons down for about 30 seconds to be safe, and if the bootloader still doesn't show up, I don't really know what else to suggest.

Just remove your sim card and hold volume down and power till it goes into bootloader!

Hi,
I was on open bootloader, S-On, TWRP and root. For the Stage fright update 4.19.161.13 (Vodafone) i reinstalled stock recovery and applied the OTA. It rebooted twice and gut stuck at One logo for an hour, so i shut it down by pressing Power + volume up. Now it doesn't boot. When i press Powe + Volume up then the One logo appears for a few seconds and then i get a black screen, but when i plug the one into my pc, the pc says mtp-device. Unfortunately i cant get into the Bootloader or Fastboot. Does anyone has advice for me? Thanks in advance.
Hold power and volume up and when the screen goes black you switch the volume to down. Keep the power button pressed at all times and hold these combos until you see the bootloader. Works flawlessly......if it doesn't it's your timing that's off
I'm on vodafone too and had the same problem.
Just follow MrHofs advise to get the screen back.
I have to restore from TWRP to get the phone running.
the update still comes up on my phone now but I'm not going to apply it until I now kow.
Thanks, it worked. The screen wasn't actually black, but on and just really dark gray. In a dark room I could see when it's reaaly off and the press Power + Volume down.
Try this....

Can you help me? My phone is restarting again and again , Even it doesn't stay in Bootloader for more than 2seconds i can even go to fastboot to fix my phone , I am Locked Fully Stock
Help!
TWRP probably botched flashing new ROM (ARHD, MD5 checked), and after reboot I'm stuck on white HTC screen (~50 minutes... far too long for first boot!). Phone does not react to power button. Does it mean I have to wait until battery dies? I left it on 100%
I tried holding vol- + power, vol+ + power, vol+ + vol- + power.
What can I do?
EDIT: It turned off, and won't switch on again. I've just got me expensive brick
Put it in a wall charger.
When you connect to wall charger, you should see battery charging image for a few second before it screen off. At any time press power you should see battery charging image. Long press power button will boot it.
Wait for awhile let it charge, then long press power & volume down to get to hboot.
I believe your problem is not mainly the TWRP but your firmware is too low to run a lollipop ROM (as seen in your signature).
Nope, doesn't work. It does not react to any input, be it though USB or buttons. No LED light, no screen flash, nothing.

no it doesn't have a home button , and nothing will stop it , what i noticed tho that if i hold vol down and the power button the next time the logo will disappear way faster but only once each hold and ill get a delay of 2 seconds before that logo appearing again and the phone rebooting , its been literally 62 hours since it started doing this , it started with a battery fully charged meaning a 5000ma , about that delay i tried using it but nothing worked , i tried clicking vol up and power button which is supposed to put the phone in recovery mode but nothing happens , i went as far as spamming random buttons to holding them for more than a minute , nothing stops it

If you are stuck on Samsung Logo, connect to PC and press Vol Down + Power for 7 seconds. It will go to charge mode. Disconnect from PC and it will power off automatically. After that press Volume Up + Down and connect to PC while holding and you will enter download mode. It will ask for confirmation.
Useful. Works

Thank you for this post. I did this and my phone booted to TWRP. (I was flashing TWRP when I encountered the bootloop)
After booting to TWRP, I did an advanced wipe (I left System unchecked). After the wipe, the phone booted normally.
