HELP: Can't get out of fastboot! - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I came back from lunch and my phone wouldn't turn on. I did the power+vol combo to bring me into fastboot, but when I try to reboot or get into recovery the phone vibrates and goes directly back into fastboot.
It's S-ON, with TWRP 2.something, rooted, running stock Sense Kitkat.
I tried to flash the latest TWRP but I get this:
Code:
C:\adb>fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
target reported max download size of 1830727680 bytes
sending 'recovery' (17020 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.509s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: image update error)
finished. total time: 1.578s
ADB doesn't list the device, so no ADB:
Code:
C:\adb>adb devices
List of devices attached
I tried several fastboot commands like "oem unlock", "oem lock", "flashing unlock", "flashing lock", and "erase cache"; all gave an error like "FAILED (remote: not allowed)" or "FAILED (remote: image update error)" or similar.
I also tried to use the "FACTORY RESET" menu command, but it just does vibrates and goes back to the main menu.
Any and all help is appreciated.
When I power up, I get this screen:

The phone didn't do anything after I had done it though.

what are you trying to achieve here? i see you have no OS/fw installed to start.
this below step will wipe everything and install all fresh. rename files accordingly.
once you in fastboot adb doesn't work
it should be
fastboot devices
then to flash firmware
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip fw.zip
fastboot reboot
then flash the twrp
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot reboot

Thanks for the help henryrk, but I'm starting to think I've had an eMMC failure.

Latest TWRP (2.8.7.0) won't work with your ancient hboot. You need an older version TWRP. Forget the cutoff exactly, but old hboots won't work on new version TWRP; and also old TWRP won't work on most newer hboot/firmware configs.

Its certainly possible. Especially if the simple command to reboot bootloader RUU mode fails.
It would also explain why the phone seemingly went bad with no action on your part.

Did you try any of the above and have you got a solution yet
---------- Post added at 09:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:47 PM ----------
what Rom was you using before this happened ie Cyanogen Mod.......

Ok, I've given up on recovering this thing.
I tried flashing TWRP 2.7.0.1 and it failed with the same message.
Every command I try I end up with some version of SD_HW_ERR or READ_EMMC_FAIL or similar. The solution is to get a new mainboard, or a new phone...
*sigh*

May I suggest that you leave your device as is for now. Messing around with it while you have INVALID radio, OS, and recovery will only serve to brick your M8. Also, attempting to lock/unlock your phone at this point will most likely kill it.
A most agreeable step at this point is to flash a full stock firmware FROM SD CARD, or even an RUU. From there on you can try to flash "TWRP 2.7.1.0" and restore a stock nand backup.

Verizon HTC one stuck in bootloader with s-off

Make sure you open command prompt in administrator mode. Try renaming your recovery to recovery.img. And make sure you can see file extensions on your computer. If file extensions are hidden and you add that img at the end,it could really be recovery.img.img.

This line: (bootloader) product: m7_wlv indicates that you flashed a Sprint bootloader to the phone. It should say m7_vzw. The Sprint model has different mount points, so that could explain the error.

I must have messed something up when I was still able to get into recovery, I wasn't able to flash anything. I kept getting E: drive errors so I flashed a stock recovery.... that is when I lost Twrp and only bootloops into boot loader with no OS.

If you have stock recovery on the phone now, try using ADB Sideload to push the stock, rooted 4.4.2 ROM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2485319
If that works for you, then try pushing TWRP 2.6.3.4.
Will that relock my bootloader and make it S-On? I was on stock 4.3 before I started everything.

No. But you will also need to flash the latest firmware package from that thread. It also does not affect S-Off, so don't worry.
Seems my bootloader is corrupt... Is there anyway to wipe it clean to start over?

Is this the encrypted RUU? If so, you may need the decrypted one. Or vice versa.

you are doing more than I can do right now. how did you get the sdk bundle to work?
I had it working before things went wrong. If you are on windows 8 people have problems so search that if that is your OS. I'm running Windows 7 on my PC. I had Unlocked S-Off and rooted with TWRP 2.6.3.3 installed. Everything was working till I did my first back up. When I restarted my phone it said there was no OS installed and the bootloops started but I still had recovery. But I couldn't restore my backup. Now I can only boot into bootloader with no OS or Recovery. Search how to set up SDK and ADB for your OS and take it from there. I am stumped because I cant run any RUU's, all I get are errors. Good luck.
I don't have my SIM card installed. Does that matter?

Hello
Can anyone please help...
no reply please help guys
XDA guys
My thread is from tomorrow no reply yet ..
aren't developers and masters care for us..you guys are masters..
thats why i came here
Please help me
reply atleast please
Better to search and then ask here, or in the thread you linked.
Looks like you needed to:
- full wipe
- flash rom
- flash gapps
- flash boot.img manually
If you can't get it to boot, looks like you may need to the correct RUU for your device.
i did everything
As i have posted the details
can you suggest rom and kernel
and steps please
1. Look in the right place...
2. Find a rom which you like, read the features and last few pages of each thread to get an idea potential bugs.
3. Each Rom thread should have the install instructions written on first page. If they don't, search then ask in the thread itself. There are guides everywhere too...

Educate me: what's an RUU version of TWRP, as opposed to any other kind?
Which precise filename(s) of TWRP are you trying, where are you getting them?

they are in zip format and can be downloaded from dottat thread in the developer section. you use the command fasboot flash zip "filename"

OK, thanks.
But what's wrong with the file format that most everyone uses for a recovery installation, which isn't a *zip file, but a *img file?

It is my understanding that img files can be flashed directly from fastboot or flashify etc. the zip file contains the image file and also a txt file and can only be flashed while your phone is in ruu mode "fastboot oem rebootRUU"
since there is 2 files that it why it is zipped. the txt file contained in there is the istructions that tell the rom update utility how to flash the enclosed recovery image file.

I have tried that command, it does not solve recovery not loading. Trust me I have tried every suggestion I can find on the internet and nothing solves this. I am hoping someone out there has knowledge of exaclty how the recovery partition works because at this point it would appear that the recovery partition on my phone is either not being written to or is corrupted.

Is a sure sign that something isn't set up right for flashing to the device.
It will never work if that is the result in terminal.
Are you using Usb 2.0 and the original data cable that is meant for the device?
I think you probably never successfully flashed any recovery.
I would advise trying a cable meant for this device.

I am using the htc cable that came with the phone. I will double check that I am using USB 2.0 and try a different cable.
I also noticed wihen flashing with rom toolbox pro is says successful yet also says #error: cannot locate recovery partition
Is it possible my recovery partitiion is not there?
I just tried several cables including the the one from htc. I also made sure I was using a usb 2.0 port. I still get the failed(remote not allowed)
Thank you for the help btw.
Hi, I think I have figured this one out. I changed my phone from blue to red. Verizon only offers silver or blue. Anyway I thought I might have damaged my motherboard, So I bought a silver verizon htc one off ebay with a cracked screen. (easy fix). So I swapped the hardware from the silver to my red and with a new board in the red shell twrp does not load. However my old board wich twrp would not load on is now in the silver shell and twrp now loads. Bottom line the red shell is the problem.

Update. The red shell is 100% to blame for recovery software not loading. I did some more tinkering with two m7 motherboards and in a stock verizon silver shell twrp loads. Both board when in the red shell, twrp does not load.
If anyone out there was thinking of converting their blue or silver verizon m7 to a different color. Be warned that your recovery software will probably not load once you transfer the hardware over to the new shell.
I guess if I want a red htc one that twrp works on, I have to get a m8

Or just.... Paint it with a good quality modeling paint (like you buy for model cars, boats, etc). It is durable and lasts if you know how to coat it correctly.

Doesn't seem to me that you solved the initial problem, just found a work around for it. I have the same problem with my phone not accepting the stock recovery for what ever reason. It will, however, accept the TWRP recovery, but this doesn't do me any good wrt warranty returns. before I S-On and Lock it, I need to have the stock recovery installed.

Have you tried ruu? That should flash the stock recovery and everything else stock. Need to ruu when you s-on to ensure everything is okay before turning secure flag on.

as well as "fastboot flash recovery 5.28.605.2_Stock_recovery.img"
all with a scattering of "fastboot erase cache".
The flash says it is successful, but when I boot to recovery, the screen graphics are garbage and when not garbage, it's the ! droid after the usual 15-20 sec blank screen. When I flash TWRP either via flash recovery or RUU that takes and works just fine. But this obviously isn't a "back to stock" set up.

Have you tried the 2.x.y.z signed ruu in santod's stock Rom/firmware thread? Unsigned ruus are good, but sometimes a signed, official ruu gets the job done that unofficial ones can't.

Is the signed one located here? I have not only because I have not read that one can go backwards, especially that far back. Can this be done successfully? What are the risks? Does the signed RUU contain all he necessary files to restart after the flash, are there any supporting flashes necessary (HBOOT, Recovery, Radios, etc.) Is this a viable solution or a shot in the dark which could brick the device?
Thanks for the on-going troubleshooting. I'm not trying to be a pain, just being careful since I am unfamiliar with the bootload/security features build into the system.

HTC One M8 soft or hard brick?

Hi guys,
I have read a lot of threads on this and other forums and i didnt find any way out for my device.
I have a problem with my HTC One M8 AT&T, bootloader is unlocked, S-ON, and i can only navigate in hboot in hboot & fastboot modes. no htc logo screens or sth like this.
Its friends phone and he told me it completely discharged and booted to hboot and wouldnt boot to android. i just want to make it work again, wiping data is not the problem.. can you tell me what should i do to get recovery( TWRP/ CWM) working, thats all i need for now because im going to s-off later. i tried to do something but it didnt work.

3) also tried bootloader lock for RUU- failed, it rebooted( cca 1 min to reboot) , and i can hear it connects and disconnects to pc with screen off about 5 times before booting to bootloader:

4) tried official HTC KitKat 4.4.4. RUU.exe but failed:
5) tried bootable RUU over sd card- failed at "parsing...." command
i am 100% sure it isnt about corrupted files or wrong md5 sums or usb drivers not working, i tried 5 times every step i described here just to be sure( ofc i will try everything from the beginning if you have some ideas).
last thing to mention:
i found 2 threads with "similar" problems:
first one, second where @redpoint73 told them a solution may be formatting through Windows device manager. I searched for cca 3 hours in device manager and disk management etc- didnt find a solution.
maybe formatting through fastboot could be a solution( format[:[<fs type>][:[<size>]] <partition> format a flash partition. ), but my knowledge about cmd/fastboot/htc partitioning is way below that point.
Can please anyone help me? Thanks in advance
Anyone guys?

Not really got much input I'm sorry, but this doesn't look good at all bootloader) version-baseband: INVALID_VER_INFO you can see this all along your bootloader screen shot, id say the phone is dead, baseband chip problem.
your drivers on your computer also look to be installed wrong.
171 RUU error is a USB connection problem, which again links back to your drivers, should say MyHTC
also which RUU are you using, because your version main is missing ?

Is this eMMC bricked?

I have been given a 32gb us model which is stuck in bootloader i have tried everything and all fails.

Try to flash this ruu with unlocked bootloader, I'm not sure It'll work but I think you have the developer edition which comes with an unlocked bootloader.

This statement doesn't tell us anything. It's worth listing the things you tried to flash, and the specific results for each. Otherwise, we waste your time and ours, as we guess or assume what you tried and didn't try.
Did you try to flash custom recovery TWRP? If so, which version number? Did you get an error message, or what was the failure mode or other results?

The RUU which corresponds with your current firmware number (main version in getvar: 6.12.401.4) is here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64926626&postcount=6
You can try to flash using htc_fastboot per the instructions, or SD card method.
If you can't get the RUU to work, relock the bootloader, or flash TWRP, I agree that it's probably emmc failure.
Help me please.
Help me please. Is this also a brick?

Please don't post same question to multiple threads. It is against forum rules to do so, as it clutters up the forum, and makes it very confusing for those trying to help you.
I've tried to help you in one of the 3 threads you posted in. So go look for it (now you see one of the reasons why cross posting is not a good idea?).
