Cant relock bootloader on Htc One M8 - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, can anyone tell me whats the problem with my phone? I used to be able to relock the bootloader for upgrade. Unlocked and install CM roms. Try to relock for upgrades again but I cant do so anymore...
This is what I get from fastboot:
C:\adb>fastboot oem lock

fastboot oem lock typically works just fine on this device to make the bootloader RELOCKED (for RUU, etc.).
The thread you linked, is to make it say LOCKED (only possible with s-off) such as for warranty purpose.

The errors may indicate a hardware (emmc) failure. The bootloader screen still says UNLOCKED, correct? I've seen a few cases, there the fastboot oem lock command yields error messages, but the bootloader is RELOCKED regardless.

Thanks redpoint73. Initially I thought my battery having problem cos everytime when it reached below 15% it just went auto off without a proper powering down. After that once recharged, either app datas or radio will be corrupted. Apps i can reinstall again but if radio, I need to rerun the ruu. This happened twice already. So the problem that I have, isnt entirely due to the battery?

Sometimes I cant even switch it on. I need to remove the battery for sometime and it might work sometimes.

Exactly same problem. After recharging, some apps were forced error and require re-installing. It's happened to me 4-5 times.

LOL so im not alone...which i thought i am lol

[Q] Desire Z stuck at boot. Solved for a while. Stuck again!

Hello,
This will be a long read. Thanks in advance for your patience. I'm not skilled in android or mobile phones in general, so I'll try to be the most descriptive possible on this.
I have a HTC Desire Z phone which suddenly has ceased to work. I've checked a bunch of threads that list some steps to follow, but I've noticed that all the steps are for rooted devices, so I'm unsure about them. The amount of information found is overwhelming.
This phone is not under warranty. I've had it like for two months so far. Apparently, bought as new (boxed, etc) from a store remnant. So I cannot send it to service, etc.
What happened is as follows. 2 days ago I was doing like 3 or 4 simultaneous updates (apps like firefox, skype, google maps...that I remember) via wifi. Some ended, some were about to end I think. I left the phone unattended for a while, and when I came back, it had a black screen with a red triangle / exclamation icon. I never had similar problems before. Maybe a few restarts because it was unresponsive (which I assume it's normal for a smartphone nowadays).
After this, I removed the battery, put it back, and turned the phone on. It started as usual, but as soon as it connected to the net, when the small synchronizing icon (circling arrow) appeared at the top of the screen, it froze. So I repeated the battery thing and as soon as it started, deactivated the synchronization, the wifi and the data connection.
I don't exactly remember if I was able to deactivate all the three, but the phone froze again. Only got a white screen with the HTC logo in the next boot. The usual "quietly brilliant"-or something message never appeared. Stuck forever. Repeated a few times and same thing.
So I entered the "Volume Down + Power Menu", and hit Factory Reset. It seemed to restart, showed a black screen with a circling green + phone icon and an animated progress bar below (not showing progress, just animating), and after a while the screen went totally black. Some seconds later, the phone vibrated 7 times. And it still does this if I repeat the factory reset operation.
BTW, I don't understand why at the right-end of the progress bar, there's a small micro-sd icon, like if the phone were trying to read or write anything from/to the sd card (a factory reset should not need anything external, IMO). Anyway, this process behaves exactly with or without an sd card in the slot.
The phone does not start after this vibration-thing. I have to remove the battery, wait some seconds and put it back. After this, it starts and immediately shows the previous animation and does the vibration thing, like if it was in a Factory Reset "loop" (quoted because I have to totally turn it off for it to happen again).
-I assume that the vibration is some sort of error code, but I've not found any source for this, which is kinda stupid.
To break that "loop", I have to start the phone again, with the Volume Down thing, to get the HBOOT menu:
Code:
VISION PVT SHIP [B]S-OFF[/B]
HBOOT-0.85.0013
MICROP-0424
RADIO-26.10.04.03_M
eMMC-boot
Apr 11 2011,23:36:27
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
FACTORY RESET
SIMLOCK
IMAGE CRC
After some searches, I noticed that the "S-OFF" part might be an indication that the phone is rooted. At this point, I'm not sure. However, I had (i.e., several days ago) tried to copy/create some file in the filesystem using either the ADB Shell, or a shell application. That was not possible. Isn't this a good indication that the phone was not booting as root?
BTW, phone is not visible through "adb devices". But "fastboot devices" lists it OK.
A command like "fastboot flash recovery ..." ends with
Code:
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
This gives me the idea that the firmware memory (or whatever is named) is read-only at this time (?), so what the "S-OFF" means then?
Anyway...
That happened on day 1 after the problem. Then I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2474781
And went through the RUU route, accordingly.
Downloaded the file RUU_Vision_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.42.405.3_Radio_12.56.60.25_26.10.04.03_M_release_224299_signed.exe from shipped-roms.com, and ran it.
That worked. The OS was reinstalled and the phone was able to boot as factory default.
Side note: This RUU thing actually did a subtle downgrade. The previous installed version was 2.42.405.4, according to the program.
So I began to set up the phone, configured an APN, connected to the Internet, went to the Market and downloaded one required app. It installed successfully, but as soon as I tried to execute it, the phone froze and had to remove the battery to turn it on again. And it went back to the original problem, stuck at boot, white screen + HTC logo. Any subsequent RUU application execution gets hung in the "Reboot to bootloader..." part. Nothing starts to be copied. The phone (in the FASTBOOT USB menu) is also frozen after this. :crying:
I also tried a previous RUU: RUU_Vision_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.42.405.2_Radio_12.56.60.25_26.10.04.03_M_release_199043_signed.exe from the same source. Same behavior.
I have no idea about what happened. The phone was running again, with working phone network, wifi, gps, sd filesystem, etc.
Oh, almost forgot it. Before finding the RUU solution, I tried putting an official Gingerbread firmware in the PC10IMG.zip file, in the root of the SD. The file was parsed OK by the phone, but when I proceeded with the update, it got stuck in the first item (updating "boot" or so - I don't remember). I think this is because the "not allowed" condition I previously got with the fastboot application.
OK. These are some details I got AFTER running some fastboot commands in the phone, now that it's boot stuck again.
First of all, this is my current HBOOT menu header:

S-OFF means you can basically write to (almost) any part of the device and disables signature checks on firmware images....

Makes sense.
But "fastboot erase userdata" should work then. It only gets "FAILED (remote: not allowed)".
ADB does not find the phone.
RUUs get stuck at the "Reboot to bootloader..." part. Phone also gets stuck here.
I'm stuck too...
S-off, like riahc3 said, means security flags are removed but this is for firmware so it doesn't mean rooted which would be for software. Which from what you've stated I doubt it was rooted.
The shipped bootloader though won't allow for many fastboot commands, that's why you get errors
The cid has been changed to allow for any firmware to be flashed, but the bad news is the Samsung chip which is prone to failure,
At this point I would attempt to flash an engineering bootloader and then custom recovery and os, hopefully you will be good after this

I tried this with the engineering bootloader:

Is "hboot" a special name? According to the fastboot help, after "flash" comes a partition name, and I don't find that in the list returned by "fastboot oem boot".
Anyway, still "not allowed".
hboot, bootloader, SPL, these are all interchangeable terms, you will not see it listed in oem boot because that doesn't list partitions
Being you still have a shipped bootloader that command won't work, you need to flash it as a PC10IMG.zip, the link I attached has a thread on bricks and one on fastboot, read those and there is a link to a PC10IMG.zip that should hopefully work for you

You mean, copying that file in the SD and booting, right?
Will do.
In that link you attached, there's a section with "Important Brick Info!", with another link to "When all Else Fails Boot From SD".
They talk about booting CM7.1 from recovery. But I don't see (at least, it's not clear for me) any engineering hboot in the file they attach. Is this something completely different? And it seems it's for rooted phones...
When you say "Being you still have a shipped bootloader that command won't work, you need to flash it as a PC10IMG.zip", these two things are pretty clear for me:
I DO need the engineering hboot.
I would need to put this engineering hboot image inside a compressed file named PC10IMG.zip in the sd card, and boot the phone with that.
If this is the case, I have the image at hand, but I've noticed that all the PC10IMG files include a file named "android-info.txt" and I don't know how to create this one (maybe it's easy).
Is this the path to follow?
Thanks for the time you're investing on this.
PS. What is this then?

Hopefully you can flash the PC10IMG.zip and will then have an engineering bootloader and a custom recovery, with these you will have a much higher likelihood of fixing your phone, but being you have the chip prone to failure you may need to boot from sd
You'll need a custom recovery in order to boot from SD, this is a last resort though

Well, I've already contacted HTC for this. I have no idea about how much would it cost, but they can do it.
Anyway, taking advantage from your expertise here, do you think if in these cases they replace just the chip or the whole motherboard?
Also, -and I prefer to ask it here first before showing myself as a daring retard-.... This device is the euro version...do you think it makes sense if I request a change to the usa version? (I'm talking about the HSDPA/3G frequencies here). I'm pretty sure this can be done only at hardware level (probably a single chip replacement?), but if they replace the motherboard, I don't see how difficult would be just "putting this instead of this one", considering that we don't use the euro frequencies here either. Is this a valid request?
Thanks for your help.
It will cost more than its worth to have HTC do it, unless somehow you still have a warranty but that would be surprising. Yes the radio bands differ between the desire z and g2, what I would suggest is buying a broken one from eBay for cheap and swap logic boards, if you dig I bet you can find one for 40$ or less which will be much cheaper than sending it to htc
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Buy a new one bro..
Hello.
I sent my phone to HTC and they replaced the motherboard. The whole cost was still cheaper than buying a new phone, so I went that route.
Since they get the replacements from their available stock, I had not much control on what they were using. So guess what...Samsung eMMC chip again.
Three questions:
1-Is this chip really that bad and I'm condemned? :laugh:
2-Rooting my phone would give me any options if the same problems happens in a future?
3-Considering that:
a) I have the old motherboard
b) a Sandisk eMMC chip does cost about 10 bucks
c) I know someone with the right tools to replace this chip.
If the same problem happens in a future and I replace the chip myself, should this work immediately of should I have to "prepare" this chip with some special software?
Thanks for all the support given with my issue.
The Samsung emmc is prone to failure but that doesn't mean it will die in a week, a month or a year, some have had it work for years
Rooting and true radio s-off is amazing and will help with other problem, just not a fried emmc, not even JTAG can fix this
Soldering a new chip is tricky if you haven't done real fine soldering before, so be careful doing it yourself
Depends how and where you bought the chip, many vision specific ones come preloaded with firmware/software
If it doesn't you will need JTAG equipment to flash it
Hope all goes well for you!

you could try to download correct 0P6BIMG.zip for your device and place it on sdcard in your phone.
Then flash it from bootloader...
It flashed correctly on mine(unlocked) without fastboot oem lock
And then try to relock it again?

strange...
have you tried:
1) From a powered off state, hold VOLUME DOWN while powering on the device.
2) Use the volume buttons to scroll to FASTBOOT and then press the POWER button to select it.
3) Connect the device to the PC while in this state and attempt the ROM update again.

It flashed correctly on mine(unlocked) without fastboot oem lock

It won't work for that guy, since he is s-on.
The reason it flashed for you with the bootloader unlocked, is since you are s-off.

You have a USB connectivity issue, so this is probably the reason why fastboot oem lock does not work.
Make sure you run the command while the phone is booted into bootloader-fastboot mode.

You CID number BS_US001 is developper edition M8. As @Mr Hofs suggested, Download Dev edition RUU, Boot into fastboot and install RUU.
Grab this RUU.exe (not OTA, RUU): https://onedrive.live.com/?authkey=!AJ5pbUC2atPkSaA&id=8B8E71545D3D985B!1658&cid=8B8E71545D3D985B
Turn On phone and go to bootloader, connect it to PC, install drivers and run RUU.exe on PC.

I assume you mean bootloader unlock, as the term "unlock" is vague and can mean several things.
You will need to relock to run the RUU, since you are s-on. Do so with the command:
fastboot oem lock
Also, this isn't a brick. A brick by definition is not fixable. At least not without opening the phone, and JTAG, replacing motherboard, etc.
What you have is no boot, and you don't know how to recover. That isn't a brick.

What does that mean "no matter what"? I doesn't tell us anything about what you tried, or didn't try. Please be specific instead of vague statements, that tell us nothing.
Try holding power and vol up for 30 to 60 seconds, and see if there is any change.
I don't think you did anything serious, that wasn't already screwed up. You are s-on, and assuming the RUU failed before sending/writing anything, then a true brick is unlikely.

You shouldn't be trying "every" combination. You should be trying the one I specified.
Put the phone on wall charger (not connected to computer) or a few hours, and try again.
Then try the combo I specified. Try it with and without the wall charger connected.

What RUU did you run exactly? Was it the one linked in Post #5 above? What was the exact file name?
I don't have any reason to be suspicious of this link, specifically. But on the other hand, this RUU is easily downloaded direct from HTC, and I don't see a reason to download from some other (unconfirmed) source. Or for all we know, the download was corrupt/damaged.

Well, the file name is right. Assuming the file is what it says it is, and not damaged or corrupt during download, it possible for the correct RUU to brick the phone. It doesn't happen often, but I have seen it happen a few times, even on completely stock (unmodified) M8 devices and the correct, official RUU.
Or its possible that it was messed up before, such as bad emmc, and the RUU just made it worse.
In any case, charging for a few hours, then trying power+vol up is about all you can do at this point.
QHUSB is Qualcomm emergency mode. Try to get out of it by pressing (for long) Vol UP + Power.
For me it looks like fried eMMC chip... Sometimes it happens. Some time ago my One M7 died at me because of this in exactly the same way.
eMMC chip was corrupted before running RUU - unable to mount partition and errors during "fastboot oem lock".

It's from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376
I don't think it's suspicious or unconfirmed.
I'm pretty sure that this RUU.exe is correct, because I was flashing with it few times.
Please check MD5 checksum. My working RUU.exe (downloaded from thread linked above) checksum is: c661c073d368274c3137d5080c88a45c and file size of 1 548 439 552 bytes (on disk).

As I said, I don't have any reason to doubt the source. But for lack of any other evidence (the subsequent report that you did use it a few times does count for something there) I have no reason to trust it more than the official source. The RUU is available for download direct from HTC, so I don't see a reason to use a mirror (unless its faster): http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8/news/
Again, I don't doubt the mirror. Mr Hofs has made valuable contributions here, so if he posted it; I trust it. But I was just trying to consider every possibility for the OP's issue.

OK, but on HTC's site it's only newest MM update available for download.
I can't see a link for older LP ROM which OP was using. Best for him (as he has S-ON) was to reflash ROM version that he already have, basing on pasted "fastboot getvar all" result.
If he would flash newer version (MM) with S-ON, then he will be stuck on this newer version without possibility to downgrade, unless he's S-OFF.
As I said earlier, phone supposedly "bricked" earlier, what you can see during "fastboot oem lock" and resulting error messages after issuing this command.
QHSUSB_DLOAD mode is because of bad NAND.
I've had similiar issue with my M7: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/help/bricked-device-swap-to-dev-ed-partially-t3015574/
I hope you're not blaming me for unsuccessful OP's phone flashing or earlier bricking?

Of course not! I never stated any such thing. Just considering every possibility, like a corrupt RUU file. But as I already stated, the fact that you reported using it successfully (and more than once) tells me the file is good.

I'm downloading it right now just to compare it with RUU.exe posted on Mr Hofs' thread.
EDIT:
OK, CRC is exactly the same. Everyone can check this. So I think we can exclude corrupted RUU.exe linked on Mr Hofs' thread. It's exactly the same as the file on HTC servers.
charged for hours, pressed VOL-UP+POWER for 2 minutes with or without charging, and..... NOTHING
the only response i get is the red led when charged and the QHUSB when plugged to computer
so i guess it's bricked for ever

Most likely, yes.
I mentioned early in the thread that this wasn't a brick. As long as the screen comes on (as it did earlier), it almost never is. But this is the relatively uncommon exception, which can be caused by a bad emmc or radio brick.

Try Power + Volume Up + Volume Down more that 2 minutes ... usually about to close 3 minutes, it should up. This is how I got out from QHUSD many times...
But a bad emmc is also possible .. if that is the reason, then only HTC can fix it.
Also after fastboot oem lock, did you do fastboot reboot-bootloader to confirm the bootloader is relocked then only run RUU ?
I don't see you mentioned that except after fastboot oem lock you ran the RUU right away.

1. You don't need to relock bootloader to run RUU on S-Off device.
2. Are you trying to run Marshmallow RUU ? You'll get error 155 if the current firmware is lower than Marshmallow. You need to flash its Marshmallow firmware first then run RUU.
Thanks for the reply, I tried your method of matching the RUU with the firmware version and got a different error.
Error couldn't allocate space, even though the RUU image was smaller than the available storage.
The solution which resolved the problem was to rename the correct RUU version zip load onto SD card and flash using the bootloader auto-detection method.

HTC M8 eye with official rom stuck in fastboot

Hey guys
Last night my phone(HTC m8 eye 5.07.401.1) slowed down badly, after a while it restarted automatically and fastboot screen showed up.
Things I've tried:
1-Restarting the phone after fully charging it for 1 billion times (worked once but the phone was frozen and restarted automatically again)
2- Trying to unlock the boot loader(Got the unlock_code.bin file, tried to load it to the phone using adb, it said success or done or something like that but nothing changed)
3-Trying to flash the official rom , didn't work
4-removing the SIM and SD card and restarting the phone, didn't work
by the way, usb debugging was not active last time the phone was working normally, Also the phone have not experienced any unusual activity like rooting or flashing custom roms or...
What can I do?

What is the exact file name? It's best to provide specific file name/version info when asking for help. I've seen a lot of cases where the person "thought" they were flashing the right RUU, but in fact, it was not even the right one.
But based on what you've described so far (bootloader will not unlock, RUU will not run, emmc error) it sounds like a hardware emmc failure.

Yes, *****LOCKED***** it says, I guess it is very serious on this one. Based on knowledge I gathered in these 2 days, I think it should show a black confirmation screen after I try to unlock it (using *.bin file), but it simply does not.

What is the exact file name? It's best to provide specific file name/version info when asking for help. I've seen a lot of cases where the person "thought" they were flashing the right RUU, but in fact, it was not even the right one.

Yes you are right, RUU is the most important part and I did not elaborate. There is a big chance that the RUU is the Achilles Heel!! Exact file name is: 0P6BIMG_M8_UL_M60_SENSE70_MR_HTC_Europe_6.12.401.4_Radio_1.29.214500021.12G_20.72.4196t.01_release_464360_signed

But based on what you've described so far (bootloader will not unlock, RUU will not run, emmc error) it sounds like a hardware emmc failure.

So, that's it, I'm gonna play "One last goodbye" and let the history judge. 2 years of EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY, 2 years of zero antenna...

That is not the RUU for the M8 eye. It's the RUU for the "regular" Euro M8. That is why you have signature error. Not sure where you can find the RUU for the "eye".
One more questions, is the phone going to fastbootRUU mode after running the command: fastboot oem rebootRUU
The error "command never completed" would suggest NO. But I'm curious whether the phone actually goes to RUU mode or not. RUU mode is signified by a black screen with large HTC logo. A progress bar will also appear below the logo, when the RUU starts to install. But in your case, you my have not gotten far enough for the progress bar to appear.
If the phone does not in fact even go to RUU mode due to emmc error, then it is probably irrelevant whether you have the right RUU or not. You will not get the RUU to run, if you can't even enter RUU mode.

It has been a long time since the last time I was here but the problem is not solved. Sorry for the delay, and No the black screen with HTC logo does not appear.
Is there anything I can do to get rid of this fastboot screen? or the phone is useless
