So i attempted to install a CM 12 nightly and it flashed and installed without error, but now it keeps flashing the "Welcome Select Language" screen for about 2 seconds, then going black for about 10 seconds, and back to the screen. The touchscreen is not working and I cannot power it off to get into recovery. Should I just wait for the battery to die or is there any other way to fox this or turn it off?
Hold the power and volume up buttons for exactly 10 seconds. Then quickly switch to holding volume down and power at the same time to get to the bootloader menu.

OK no power button on the motherboard
So I cannot push vol up power and home
Any ideas please and thank you
And my phone wilnot turn on it gets stuck at the logo screen so I cannot install any drivers
How do you turn it on with no power button?
When it first starts to boot, immediately hold home and volume up and it should boot recovery.

OK it just vibrates and stays black and vibrates every few seconds till I'll I let go that it stays black
Try the same but volume down instead. If this works you can odin flash the stock firmware. Sounds like something may have been corrupted.
I am in a bit of a predicament. When I tried power-off my phone from the TWRP reset menu TWRP froze up. I could click any of the buttons on screen (the clicking/tapping animation did go off) but got no repsonse. When I tried to do a forced power-off by holding the power button, the only thing that happened was the screen locked. Now I am stuck on the lock screen because for some reason the phone won't unlock when I slide to unlock it. Am I screwed and will have to wait until the battery goes dead to be able to get back to the bootloader? I tried to flash TWRP 2.8.6.0 inside TWRP but it flashed to the boot partition instead. I have a backup but I need to first be able to flash the new recovery to restore it.
Press vol up+vol down + power button for 15 sec or more
When screen goes black
Press voldown + power to enter bootloader
Thanks for the quick response. Sadly I ended up calling it a night soon after posting so I ended up letting the battery die.
I rooted my phone like a month ago and installed TWRP. After ARHD i wanted to try MIUI, but when i flashed it i lose my root. I m downloaded ElementalX 4.4 gpe kernerl and i go to flash it, instalation go normaly, but when i finished twrp lagged for first time 2,3 secunds when i tap reboot. After that, phone booted normaly, white display with htc and developer text, like always, but after that come black display. It stucked here and i cant do anything. No matter how long i hold power button or anything else it cant do anything. It dont shows orange light on charger. 2 hours i cant do anything, but phone is running something, it is hot right now, cca 41 c, but its still stucked. Please help.
a
finded out now, when am hold power buton + vol up, phone just restart, and stuck like last time. It cant boot to recovery or bootloader
Hold power + volume UP, as soon as the screen goes BLACK switch to volume DOWN. Keep the POWER button pressed at all times.
That will put the phone in the bootloader, go from there to the recovery and reflash a rom with a FULL wipe otherwise it will never work.
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
Hi I was running the Cyanogen Mod Nightly for my phone, and hadn't updated it for about a week. When I went in to my settings to update it, I downloaded the latest one and when it was done it prompted me to start it, so I did. It got to about 2%, and after that it's been looping in boot. The screen flashes on and off instantly every 5 seconds. Power + Volume Up works, it shows the HTC screen and says it's going into recovery, but then it just loops in boot again.
Is there any fix/hope for my phone?
Press power + vol up, and as soon as the screen goes black, press and hold power + vol down. You will boot into the bootloader. from here you can flash an RUU to go back to stock

So I tried doing this, but nothing happened.
I did however, fix my problem, by holding down Power + Volume Up until it showed the initial "Booting into recovery" screen (which was failing), but kept holding Power + Volume Up until the Battery Charging screen showed up (I had it plugged into my PC). Once I let go, it rebooted the phone normally, and started up Cyanogenmod. Now the phone works, so I am going to back up my data, and switch to a non-nightlies version (or just never update).
Thank you!
Next time if you are in a bootloop, just holding vol down during the next restart cycle will get you to bootloader.
If the buttom combo (Power+vol up to force a restart, then just hold vol down to go to bootloader) doesn't work, its virtually always due to getting the timing wrong (either not pressing vol down soon enough, or letting go too early). And the fact it was looping makes the timing tricky. But holding vol down during a bootloop (restart) will always get you to bootloader.

I already tried that, it would automatically go back into a bootloop. And I tried your second option, which also didnt work. The only way I personally was able to fix it was having it plugged in, holding Volume Up + Power through the bootloader screen (which would crash) until the battery icon with the red disclaimer text showed up. Then it would reboot without going to bootloader (Pretty sure the Cyanogenmod tried to get it to this and failed).
Still cant get it to update without crashing so im just going to flash a new rom.
