Hi,
My european One M8 suddenly rebooted a few days ago while sitting idly on my desk next to me, for no apparent reason. It went straight into a boot loop where it vibrates, turns screen on then shows the green HTC logo. Screen would then go blank, then back to HTC logo again, over and over. I ran the battery down, restarted on AC and the problem was fixed, only to happen again an hour later. Now I can't boot into the OS, but can get to bootloader and stock recovery menus using button combos. The phone is the unlocked version, and is S-OFF using sunshine about a year ago while I played around with custom roms. Since then I've gone back to stock firmware/OS using RUU, and updated OTA to the latest android a few weeks ago. Phone worked fine since then.
I've tried using the following RUU + a factory reset, but the problem persists:
0P6BIMG_M8_UL_M60_SENSE70_MR_HTC_Europe_6.12.401.4_Radio_1.29.214500021.12G_20.72.4196t.01_release_464360_signed.zip
I've been desperately looking around for pointers and re-locked my bootloader, then tried RUU again. Still didn't cure the problem, and may well have been a bad idea I guess, as now I can't seem to unlock it again.
Here's the output from "fastboot getvar all":

Hi guys I need some help as I feel like I'm at risk of bricking my phone everytime I flash a ROM. Just got my M8 recently and everytime I flash a ROM, it is very difficult to turn the phone back on after flashing. This has happened for both ARHD 21.0 and 21.1 for me, they are the only ROM'S I have tried since having this phone. But after the ROM finishes flashing and I select "finish now", the phone shows a split second of the TWRP lock screen and then turns off. From there it is very difficult to turn on the phone no matter what I try. I have tried holding power button for more than 30 seconds, holding power button+down, and power button+up and still no luck. However when I plug the charger in, the red charging light turns on but nothing comes up on screen still. I have to constantly attempt to hold/press the power button for over 5 minutes for the phone to turn on, and once it's turned on its fine to turn back on even when I restart/turn it off. This has happened EVERY time I flash a ROM and I need help as I really feel like I bricked my phone every time.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Thank you.

Can you check TWRP and disable screen timeout? Then reflash Rom and see if that fixes the problem
What are hboot and radio number? Either from hboot screen, or adb getvar all.

Ok, I'm going to try that and let you know when ARHD 22.0 is released because I try to avoid flashing ROM's as much as possible now. Not a nice feeling when it happens..

Please edit your post and remove imei and serialno. Posting them in public forums is a big no no
Please delete your IMEI and serial number from the above post. I only asked for hboot and radio number, but forget that folks here are sometimes over-achievers!
Moderator Information,
IMEI and Serial number have been removed. Please do not post this online. It is personal information.
Many thanks,
Stephen
Sorry about that guys, I didn't know. Thank you for removing.

Try turning off the screen timeout in twrp. That's a common problem with roms that use the aroma installer
Edit: sorry, I overlooked someone else who had the same answer
Hello everyone,
Before I start here are some basic info
The phone is rooted and S-off.
CID: HTC__J15, later I have converted it to
Today I have tried to convert my HTC M8-Dual Sim to a Google Play edition through this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708589
However, after finishing the flashing process my phone was stuck in the bootloader screen, there recovery disappeared but I can flash it again.
I tried both the rooted and the un-rooted zips and they both gave me the same result.
After that I tried flashing back to the Sense firmware and stock rom, after finishing flashing it still was stuck in the bootloader.
If i tried to make a factory reset in TWRP it gives me (E: Resource type (font) failed to load)
Can you please help me, I need to fix it asap as I have a trip by next week.
Thank in advance

So I have tried to flash 2 roms and still have the same problem, the phone will not boot into the system. Just stuck in the bootloader.
Think you should have RUU for dual sim ,thread you followed is not for dual sim I belive
I have been reading and trying to rectify the issue of my HTC M8 being stuck at bootloader from most helpful articles here but I am finding myself back to square one.
The issue is that my phone crashed suddenly and through bootloader I have chosen factory reset probably 100 times and the phone just keeps getting stuck so I have concluded that the ROM is corrupted. Now as I will require to flash the ROM again I am stuck as to how to go about it.
I have followed many articles and downloaded ABD and have familiarized myself with fast boot.
If one of you could please assist me in the applicable ROM and what process I should follow I will be most grateful.

Funny enough my M8 (never rooted) did something very similar.
I used it before sleeping whilst the battery was ultra low, and it just ran out of juice rather than a proper shutdown.
In the morning I charged it and got the same "stuck on boot screen" when I powered it up.
A factory reset didn't work either.
Fortunately, still under warranty so returned to EE for a repair.
P.S. See also http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/phone-loses-settings-apps-battery-dies-t3375980 for other issues when phone battery dies.

then this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64926626&postcount=6
but don't use that RUU .. use its guide only ...
use this RUU- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67155082&postcount=2729
or you can use this guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67314040&postcount=1749
If this fails to fix your problem .. you need to send it to HTC Centre to get it fixed.
I used to know more but I am a little rusty. I had the phone sitting for few months now and now when I wanted to use it again it got stock on the viper rom boot icon .
I tried reinstalling the rom but it's not working. I saw a thread about a RUU but I don't think it was the right one for me, it did go through.
So here I am, bagging for help!!

Meaning what? Did it flash successfully or not? If it flashed successfully, you just get stuck on the boot screen again?

So the RUU installed with no errors, but the phone still won't boot (stuck on boot screen again)?

Yes that is correct, I installed RUU_M8_UL_M60_SENSE70_ATT_MR_Cingular_US_6.20.502.5_combined
no errors, but is getting stuck on the white htc one screen.
Before that Viper rom was installed, so my first move was to reinstall that one.
What are your thoughts?
A short update
I tried installing GPE from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65021290&postcount=1085
And not it doesn't go pass the weird google boot...
Could it be a hardware problem and not software?

is that meaning RUU or just a firmware package ??
try kitkat or lollipop stock RUU
if that's not helping to boot the device or it booted with K or L RUUs then most definatly it's not a software problem
I tried both and nothing seems to work... thanks for the answer ahmed

Trying multiple RUU (which installed with no errors) and also custom ROMs, and no boot; to me implies a hardware failure (emmc failure?).
Not sure what emmc is but from what I saw it's not cheap haha
I though about changing the mini motherboard, the one that has the power bottom. I bought it for another m8 that I had but the phone ended up with a broken screen before I had time to replace the motherboard.
It does't seem like worth repairing if it is emmc
I went back to an old htc one x
Hello!
I tried to root my HTC ONE M8. I unloocked the bootloader then I flashed twrp. The first problem that occured was when I tried to enter twrp via the bootloader>recovery.
It gets stuck on "entering recovery..." then the phone reboots in a loop.
So i can't enter twrp and I can't enter the phone.
I can still enter bootloader tho.
I first tried the lastest twrp version when that didn't work, I tried a few others with no success.
from: (https://eu.dl.twrp.me/m8)
Is there anyone that knows what the issue can be?
Thanks.
