Don't have your model 816, mine is single SIM a5_chl but this forum link had some answers for someone else with your model. Luckily your not really "hard bricked" because you can still enter hboot/fastboot but I understand why you say that. Hard bricked is when your phone is literally an expensive paperweight. Luckily you still have access to your boatloader and that's where most problems can get fixed. By the way what specifically happened that caused this issue? You're boatloader is locked and your not rooted so pure stock right with stock recovery but you can't get into recovery?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-816/help/a5ul-unable-to-flash-ruu-t3294835
Also if you press the power button to select hboot you should go to fastboot mode where you can use volume key to select recovery then press power button to enter.
Below is a link to stock RUU's for yours and other models but you'll need stock recovery installed and working before they can be run. Hopefully your stock recovery is still there just need a different way to enter it i.e. Boatloader or key presses. Only flash your specific versions firmware.Try the one your were currently on before trying one older.

So you went into fastboot mode and when you press your power button to select hboot what happens?
Below is a link to a forum for the a5_ul with a link to the stock recovery. Verify this is your version then try flashing it using ADB/fastboot on your P.C. and your phone in fastboot mode. Do you have USB debugging selected in your phone developer options settings?

Did you have the HTC drivers installed on your P.C. or Linux computer?
flashing it using SDK Toolkit /ADB fastboot is doing it manually. The other method is to name the file a specific way so that your phone recognizes it but I have never used this method before. I downloaded the portion of the SDK Toolkit I needed, ADB/fastboot and had the HTC Windows drivers installed from HTC sync manager then put the recovery zip file into my ADB folder in my P.C. then opened command prompt from my ADB folder and typed fastboot flash recovery"name of zip file".img with my phone in fastboot and it flashed. This is what you should try and I'll link some instructions below. Good luck.
http://androidforums.com/threads/cd...ry-image-via-fastboot-or-from-sd-card.385358/
Also if ADB isn't recognizing your phone and you do have the drivers installed then it may be because of what's happened to your phone and then you would need to try and flash from your SD card with the file properly named for your version so that fastboot on your phone will recognize and flash it. I don't know what the proper name is for your version but a lot of the time it's already properly named. How did you lose your recovery in the first place with a locked boatloader and no root?
I must be getting tired. I believe you need an unlocked boatloader to flash a recovery image so you might not be able to flash it. If you can't get into your recovery thru H boot, press power button, volume button to select recovery, enter by pressing power button, then your going to need to flash the stock RUU or zip file with the stock recovery included in the file as you can flash an RUU with the boatloader locked. The issue is will the signed file recognize your firmware as it is now and flash? Wish this was my expertise but I've only flashed RUU files to start my devices clean again not to fix a problem.

nd if im not usb debugged because dont see adb devices only fastboot recognize my device ;[[[ im in big stuck ... i'll say again LOCKED , S-ON , MAYBE NO USB DEBUGGING , STUCK IN BOOTLOADER , AND RUU SAYS MAIN VERSION OLDER ;[

I know my friend I read it the first time and I understand all that. I'd try the flash with your recovery zip and see if that works. If not then you'll need to flash stock RUU's until you find one that will work but only ones meant for your version . Did you click that one link I gave that was to a forum here in XDA because that forum looked like it was very similar to your problem ?

Download the zip from the thread
Rename it to 0P9CIMG.zip
Copy it to your sdcard
Put the sdcard into your phone
Boot into HBoot, it will recognize an update and confirm
After this, you will be on stock kitkat, but you can make upgrade to lollipop

I'm uploading a RUU for this device right now.
I'll send you a pm once it's done
Do you need Stock recovery too?

Thanks for the assist TobiBot. I don't have this version of phone and didn't catch this forum link when I was looking thru XDA. O.P. says he is flashing this way and not from ADB/fastboot and still keeps getting the" older version" notice. I read the whole forum you linked to and found this a few pages in. His radio I.D. is invalid in Getvar all he posted so maybe your suggestion combined with the above posters quote he can make it work. Hopefully just the fix you linked to will do it but if not this might get him the rest of the way.

yes it does, but when u are using it it wont show u successfuly changed and u can not view current main version from it. but command "misctool w 1.00.000.0" does what it is supposed to. I tested on a5_ul with 4.4.2 and 5.0.2

The last quote above from the Misctool suggestion. Never tried it or heard of it but all options should be looked at to fix O.P.'s problem. Hopefully the last poster's help fixes it and this idea is moot but at least it's linked here for the next guy.
Good luck pipaigoleko !

AFAIK ViperOne hasnt been made for the Verizon HTC One. can you point to where you downloaded the rom please?
but normally when this happens its a boot.img problem meaning the kernel is not working properly if you flash another rom that is offered in OUR dev section you should be able to boot no problem. as for media stuff, that should be in the internal storage

There is a general HTC One forum you may get better results in as you said this one is Verizon specific.. FWIW here is a link to the general HTC One forums - http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one
but, to answer your question,
turn off the phone completely, (make sure fastboot is off in settings.apk)
then, hold volume down + power to get into bootloader mode, then from there you can fastboot flash an RUU for YOUR phone, make sure the RUU isn't made for another phone or it could brick, also make sure not to flash, radio, hboot, recovery, basically anything not made for your phone (aka files found in this Verizon forum)
Here is a good video of how to flash an RUU on the HTC One: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpA71FXddyU and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1g5gEf2wgS4 are both good
(I prefer to use fastbootRUU, which is done by runnnig these commands in fastboot:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip RUU.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
if you don't have an RUU to run. that should still be just fine and probably easier, actually yea try this first, boot into bootloader, then either fastboot flash a custom recovery (if you don't already have one) and flash yourself a ROM made for your HTC One.
so is your phone from Verizon, it is just full unlocked from Europe? am I reading that correctly? If so, what does this mean? you are using a Verizon HTC One on a Europe carrier? Sorry, just a little confused on that part, hopefully this comes to some use to you.
Best of luck,
Andy
Thank you andybones .
I dont have RUU .
You said : "if you don't have an RUU to run. that should still be just fine and probably easier, actually yea try this first, boot into bootloader, then either fastboot flash a custom recovery (if you don't already have one) and flash yourself a ROM made for your HTC One "
How can I put another ROM on my phone ?because it`s not recognized by my computer ?
If I "wipe data / factory reset " from ClockWorkMOD Recovery, I will be able to restore the previous backup made with ClockWorkMOD Recovery?
And yes, my phone it`s from Europe but it`s unlock from factory .
Thank you very much .

You really need to be asking these questions in the forum section for the HTC One you bought, people here are familiar with the Verizon HTC One which is different from your HTC One. If you can find out which HTC One you have, I would be willing to bet that you can find the RUU's and other tools, such as something to remove the red text on your flash screen and get your phone booting again.
Like others have said, you need to get to the correct forum section for your device, regardless of what carrier you are using. This section is for the Verizon HTC One model only.
To answer your question about flashing recovery:
1. download the correct recovery for the device that you have, not Verizon
2. enter the bootloader
3. plug phone into computer
4. enter the command: fastboot devices
- if you dont see anything listed, you need to get fastboot working, and I won't get into that...
- if you do see your device listed, proceed
5. copy your recovery.img file to your fastboot working directory
6. enter the command: fastboot flash recovery recovery_file_name.img (with the correct file name of the recovery you downloaded for your specific device)
6. wait for your terminal/command prompt to say its done, should be just a few seconds
7. enter the command: fastboot reboot-bootloader
- make sure everything looks fine
8. use volume buttons to select the "recovery" option, and press power to select, which should reboot into recovery
With a little help from The Google I came across this - http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/ruu-file-downloads/ - Hopefully one of those will be the right one for you. Before you flashing or doing anything you should answer a few questions - Are you S-off or S-on? What model HTC One do you have? You should able to figure out a lot of this information from your Bootloader page, at the very least you should be able to tell the hboot, OS, CID and Radio versions, from that information you hopefully will be able to figure out which RUU you should be using.
The thing is that here i dont find my RUU , the radio version it`s not the same with my phone radio version .

This would be the RUU you want, as far as I can tell.
This would be the appropriate Recovery for that RUU version.

From what you are describing you installed the stock recovery, if you want to be able to access the recovery and install rom, backup/restore and more you need a CWM or TWRP Custom recovery. For these you need to make sure you get the right one for your model/version HTC One.

Power and volume up should get you a stock recovery menu...
If you are back to stock now and want to load a custom rom, then yes, you will need to reflash a custom recovery now.
you should not do an ota with custom firmware

My phone boots only into bootloader

Hi guys, I'm having a really big problem because I need to use my phone today but i messed up something.
First i have s-on, installed twrp 2.8, and flashed arhd 34.0 everything worked fine but i had problems with my wifi because of the 4.4.4 firmware on my phone. So i wanted to flash the new firmware but because i was s-on i couldnt do it, so i locked my bootloader and tried again. Now my phone boots only in bootloader and i don't know what to do. Someone please help! :crying:

Your first problem here is relocked bootloader. Do you still have custom recovery installed ? Have you try to restore your stock ROM ?
When you mentioned you tried to flash firmware, which firmware version no. ? You fastboot getvar all show you have firmware 3.28.401.9 installed.

When on bootloader then press power once to hboot then select recovery, it goes back to bootloader ?
I don't have further idea as the bootloader is locked, except if you don't mind losing everything on your internal storage as this will make your device like a new device out from the box is to use the RUU zip. You need an external sdcard.
Download the RUU zip from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/general/htc-one-m8-european-signed-ruu-0p6bimg-t2911563
Or the lollipop one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58457494&postcount=375
rename the zip to 0P6BIMG.zip and put it on external sdcard
boot to bootloader, press power once to hboot, it will ask you to install or not.

Yes, i get back to bootloader when i select recovery.
I don't mind to lose my data, just get my phone back working
So I'm gonna try this out. It should by itself popup to ask me to install? By external sd card i guess you mean a microsd which i have. Should that zip file be the only file there or can I put it in with other files?
Yes... it will pop-up when you select hboot then press power up to install.
external_sdcard is the microsd. No problem to put it with other files, correct naming is important and put in root of microsd not in folder

HTC Desire 816w SoftHard Brick s-on tampered relocked costly repear

How did this happen, i dont know but phone is bricked while someone tired to put new RoM on it.
Authorized HTC service asked for 150$ to repear phone by replacing motherboard. I found it strange since phone is entering recovery, and i am trying to see if I can bring it back to life. So far, not good.
I tryed to flash RUU (exe file) from ofical htcdev site, phone resets (gray htc logo appear) and its stuck at "sending 0/6". And before flash RUU did not see active version on phone (showed only version that should be updatet on phone) I have suspicion that this phone is made for Asia market but i cant fine RUU other then Europe.
Before I tired this with "Unlocked" and then i relocked it and tried with "Relocked"
Now I am trying to find out how to make "SD gold card" and see if i can flash some new ROM with it. but I am very new at this so I need some time. Is it posible this phone is Hard Bricked with bad root?

If you can get into recovery I think you can get back to a working phone.
1) I would flash twrp if you don't have it already installed. Put a copy of twrp backup of a previous stock ROM for your 816 version on a SD card. Either by USB if you can or remove the SD from phone and do it manually @ your PC(you may need to mountsd card when you're done).
2) In twrp go to the restore menu and make sure you can see the backup you want to restore.
3) Do an advanced wipe dalvik cache, system, cache, data and internal storage. You can even format data if you want.
4) Restore twrp backup.
Hopefully you have a working phone at this point and can follow steps to upgrade via RUU then OTA.
Thanks for replay!
I tired downloading twrp.img and do
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
All i got is
sending 'recovery' (11340 KB)...
FAILED (data transfer failure (Unknown error))
finished. total time: 5.006s

Im not even sure if i can flash custom recovery if phone is S-on and relocked? No one in my contry cant fix this phone. They just dont know i gues.. How can it be hard bricked if i can enter recovery mode?
Update on trying
I downloaded rom from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-816/general/ruu-htc-desire-816-a5chl-ruu-file-t2920254 changed name to 0P9CDIAG.zip and updated it over sd card. There was loading and checking, when it was finished I reboted phone. Now phone just enters recovery mode (you dont need to hold buttons anymore), and now "RUU" from offical htcdev says "signiture error" and its not stuck at "sending 0/6"
Also i got ***Security Warning*** now below "relocked"
Im not sure if this is a good or bad thing
I believe that you used the wrong ruu. You need an a5_dug ruu. You used the virgin mobile desire ruu.

As for online flashing, I dont think they can do much bether.. How hard can it be, Just need to find out what rom i should flash, how, and where to find it
Can "goldSD card" be of any use here?
I unlocked bootloader again, now i am trying to find out if i can S-OFF from fastboot so i can instal any rom.. Any ideas?
I managed to get CWM recovery... Still dont know what im doing, i hope i wont screw this up.
Step forward, 2 steps back
So, i tryed to "install zip" BinDroid_Desire816_DualSIM_V2.0.0 with CWM. It goes throu, but at the restart, phone is still stuck (nothing happens)
Now i fould CWM backup here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2772771 and while restoring i got problem
"Restoring data..."
Error mounting /data!

Any help with this? Thanks!
Thanks everyone for help, i managed to install BinDroid with TWRP recovery (from there i formated internal memory)!

Your device is a Sprint .. you shouldn't convert it to any Intl GSM/GPE. You shouldn't change its MID.
Not sure whether this is still fixable because on Verizon I know, this conversion will kill the radio.
Change back your MID to 0P6B70000
and get the correct firmware and RUU here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173

Hold Power + Volume Up for at-least 20secs and when screen turns black, release the buttons and hold Volume Down until you enter bootloader... which is mainly couple of seconds.

In addition to your comment, that hboot does not need to be updated before RUU (RUU will do it):
1) Need to change MID back to Sprint MID to RUU
2) Shouldn't need to change CID, but it doesn't hurt to do so.
3) No need to relock bootloader to RUU, since OP is s-off.
But I agree, the OP should try to RUU back to Sprint stock image. (and obviously take the actions to meet the requirements to do so). After that, if is still doesn't work its probably a radio brick.

Error 155 is usually fixed by relocking Bootloader. Since the phone is in a funny state I would advise putting all chances on your side. Dont worry if the logic says S-off doesnt need BL relocked , you just need every chance to flash Stock ruu back to the phone
Thanks, i will try it...
So, if it's work i can unlock the phone to use another operator ?

Boot Loader Loop, Unlocked, S-Off, Rooted HTC M8 Tmobile
A year ago I believe I used HBoot and or Firewater to root my M8. I recently removed some applications that seemed to make my phone act funny, and now the phone is stuck in a boot loop, or rather just a boot and stop at the second HTC "One" screen. Not exactly a loop.
I've download ADB tool and tried the fastboot method to install TWRP but have no success because the computer does not recognize the phone while running ADB or Fastboot, therefore I cant install TWRP and am stuck in the bootloader menu. I have tried various different cables and restarted the pc several times, and installed htc sync and other drivers necessary for that process. Also uninstalled and installed different drivers later as well. Now im not sure what i have installed but I have access to the phones internal drive via explorer.
Using Hboot.

Recovery leads to nothing and eventually returns to the HTC One menu stop.
Reset does nothing, acts like fast boot actually.
Ramdump under fastboot seems to works, and does produce log files.
While the phone was still active, I managed to create a full "manual" backup of the device by plugging it in and backing up/copying the entire internal memory. After screwing with the phone and every option for several hours I managed to access the files of the internal memory by switching to recovery mode via the boot menu and then plugging in the phone via usb to comp while deleting the drivers at the same time. I tried a full restoration of the internal backup i made, by copy and replace if the same method, but still nothing.
Ive attached an image of the Hboot menu with the details and options of that Hboot for those of you familiar with hboot.
The ideal situation, or what i'd like to do is restore the phone without flashing the rom and loosing the information, then id like to upgrade to lollipop or a new custom rom I found here actually, but the first step is getting back into the phone which i would be very grateful for in general.
also, not great with cmd and all that stuff, I do have sdk tools downloaded and installed but not great with that either. If there was a more simple way to replace existing files in the phone via the file manager (because im able to access the internal drive via the file manager, that would be the most ideal and easiest situation. But knowing the path and the boot files and which files are necessary for boot is what im looking for as well.
Also i know how to flash a sd and htc has a sdcard slot as well. Also i should mention that prior to the phone being screwed up I did want to delete some internal certificates because i believe someone installed a spy application on the phone, hence the reason for all of this checkup and removal anyway. In the process of trying to do that, i followed a tutorial on this forum which suggested I create a security lock pin, which I did. This could also be the cause of the problem not being recognized by the adb or fastboot script.
Who ever helps me do that gets a tip.
Please help.

**** I just realized it would be more appropriate to create a new thread for my problem rather than intruding on this mans problem, please see the One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting. And respond there*****

[SOLVED]No system installed, H3G__001, S-ON, Relocked, No recovery

Hello everyone, The story with my htc is that an error "Unfortunately settings has stopped" popped up so I went into bootloader and formatted the device, now once the device booted I couldn't get trough setup as the same message popped up over and over so couldn't do anything, then I decided to unlock the bootloader and install twrp so that a custom ROM would work, but once I installed twrp I wouldn't boot system or recovery... so I tried to flash stock recovery but that failed so clever and tired me relocked the device and now the device is relocked and when I attempt to unlock it fastboot claimed a "success" but phone still shows relocked and twrp doesn't want to flash
you must me curious why didn't I just flash the ruu? Well... for this device its cid is H3G__001 and if I can't find a ruu for that that would be correct with the details of the device that would be great

I linked ruu.lalleman.net because your were looking for your RUU.
You have to UNLOCK your bootloader again before flashing TWRP with HTC_fastboot

like the title of this thread and the first post on this thread says the phone doesn't want to unlock and I believe that its because of no recovery and what u are telling me I know from google and other xda threads so if I would really know how to solve this problem I wouldn't have made this thread

And tan the bootloader showed (after flashing the system.img like 6 times) that the process failed but i took my chances and rebooted the phone and now im writing this post from it [emoji2]. Thanks for help and if anyone has a similar problem than pm me withing 30 day and ill get you the RUU
