HTC One M8 Black Screen Boot Up - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I went to root my HTC One M8 using the toolkit created. I then installed super su with TWRP and rebooted the device. The device was stuck in the HTC One M8 logo. I went into recovery again and wiped data and cache. Rebooted again but this time after the HTC ONE M8 screen i just get a black screen. I thought I might of deleted the system so I tried to instal Cyogenmod 13 onto it. I flashed the Cyogenmod recovery and booted into the recovery. But everytime I do that I go back to fastboot in bootloader. I cannot get into recovery. Tried to install TWRP again but same thing. I'm super stuck!!! Someone please help?

The toolkit hasn't been updated in over a year, and contains obsolete TWRP and SuperSU versions. These will almost surely cause of your issues: no boot after root, custom ROMs won't install.
Did you relock in order to RUU? If so, what happened?
If you still want to go the TWRP route, you'll need to unlock the bootloader again.
Then download current version TWRP and install using the fastboot method: https://twrp.me/devices/htconem8gsm.html
Then try to install CM13 or another custom ROM again.

Wait, did you flash CM13 ROM or Cyanogen Recovery? Those are 2 completely different things. Cyanogen recovery is like their own version of TWRP (custom recovery). Its not a ROM.

[Q] Why cant i install custom recovery

I tried to root my LG-855 last night, i managed to get superuser installed but i cannot install a customer recovery.
i used flashify to flash recovery but i am getting a secure boot error when rebooting and when i try to manually boot into recovery it just goes to stock recovery.
I am currently on lollipop
please help
I just rooted my LG G3-D855 and i flashed TWRP-2.8.6.1 with flasify and everything goes fine. Did you try re-flash it again or some thing just when wrong when you rooted your phone.
Maybe you can try this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=b007.autorecd855.
I have tried again using flashify and the app you have the link to and still nothing. I think I may just unroot it and try again. Cheers for the help

Flashing recovery like on kitkat is not working on lollipop I think. There is a thread here on XDA about this

Managed to get it sorted. Used autorec app to flash stock recovery(although not needed) and they flashed twrp and it worked.

Stuck on HTC logo(help)

Hello guys,
Just got my m9 a few hours ago, decided to root,s-off etc
Anyway, I did something stupid and Im stuck on the android logo.
Here is what I did.
-I updated the device through the stock recovery, there was another update but I didnt install i.
- unlocked the bootloader, phone rebooted and was working fine
-installed costume recovery(TWRP), I didnt boot into it because there wasnt and option like in the m8 to boot in recovery from bootloader.
-I reset the device and installed the update(stupid move I knew the stock recovery is not there)
- I got into TWRP and the updated failed so I had the SUbinary.zip so I plashed it and decided to reboot
-Here I got a note that theres no OS installed so I installed android Revolution, I placed it in the sdcard prior
- after flashing it I pressed on reboot yet I get no OS installed and now im stuck on the HTC logo.
BTW I can boot into boot loader but it says sd card not mounted (64GB)
Edit:
I entered into recovery, flashed AR again,its installs everything normally but I realized on the installation log last line : set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
still I get no OS installed
I got it working now. Anyone whos having this problem just use the beta recovery because the official one is broken
here's a like https://basketbuild.com/devs/Captain_Throwback/One (M9)/Recovery
just flash it normally and install the rom again.
now i will have to go back to stock recovery and download the OTA the flash TWRP again -.-
will the OTA work on the ARHD and stock recovery or thats not possible?

I dont think the OTA will work.
either find the latest full RUU and flash it, or an older RUU, flash it, then do all the available OTAs.
Then redo TWRP and ARHD.

Thats good to hear, sometimes TWRP will say that there isn't any OS installed but actually there is just reboot the device.
After updating through the OTA I installed ARHD and I got the same error again with the latest recovery. I think its because when I did wipe the data there root directory is changing make the phone unable to boot or there is a problem with the rom although it flashed before the update.
Here is a fix http://forum.xda-developers.com/one...h-recovery-t3066720/post59934542#post59934542
If it didn't work try to format data in the recovery and reboot. Make sure you have a ROM or back up on an SD card.
Since your phone is running I would suggest you to S-off because from what I understand is RUU (for Europe) will only work with S-off

stuck at twrp recovery / recovery only starts for a split second

I've been trying to root my HTC m8 and everything was going perfect until I went to load the twrp recovery in order to access supersu. I followed a youtube guide and everything was fine, but now whenever I try to load recovery, it will either say loading recovery and then go into my stock OS, or it will be stuck at the recovery screen and I'll have to power down the phone.
Is it because the twrp recoveries I'm using don't work well with my hboot? I'm completely new to this stuff so I have no idea what the problem could be. My HTC is from At&t and my Hboot is 1.61 and I've used twrp recoveries 2.8.7.0 through 2.8.4.0 and none have worked. I've also used 2.7.0.2 and the philz_touch_6.26.6 with same results.
I've erased the cache after every flash recovery, and rebooted the bootloader before I recover again. If I'm overlooking anything or doing something dumb please inform me! I have no clue what to do now...
Are you sure it's a HTC M8 ? hboot 1.61 is a HTC M7

stuck at boot logo

Hi, i unlocked bootloader using the htcdev method and worked fine.
I boot in fastboot and see im unlocked, i flash twrp latest version and go in recovery , i install supersu latest version, i delete cache dalvic cache and reboot. And thats all. Stuck there and now im trying to download the stock rom and reflash it and try again.
My phone is htc one m8 universal unlocked and updated to latest android 6 version available now.
What did i do wrong ? i dont get it. Its not my first phone to root. I did root more than 20 phones .............

Failed Install of 4.0.1 causes twrp loop?

So I was running stock 4.0.0 with twrp recovery just fine, and go to update via ota the 4.0.1. Now this failed, and so I decided I might as well clean install. After installation now, regardless of rom (even lineageos based) I cannot boot out of twrp. Every reboot leads back to twrp. I can access fastboot, but thats it. I've tried reflashing twrp also
Edit: This is ridiculous. Literally everything looks perfect but it refuses to boot. Tried every rom I can, even tried different recoveries and ****ing nothing. I can't find any rhyme or reason to this nonsense.

I'll tell you exactly the same as the last one...
First of all... YOU can NEVER try to install an official update having a custom recovery (like TWRP) installed in your device. Previously, you should have changed to stock recovery.
Having said that, you have to make the following....
1. If you have already the full room into internal memory, reboot into recovery. If not, copy the full rom to a pendrive an connect it by OTG.
2. Restart in recovery mode and click on wipe and then, advance wipe and select... davilk, cache, data and system partitions. then, slide the bar.
3. When it finish, go back to the main menu and click on install. Select the full rom from internal storage (or OTG) and install it.
4. When it finishs, you have two options from here...
4.1. First option. Try to install TWRP recovery before rebooting, because the rom will have installed stock recovery. After flashing twrp, theoretically you should get twrp installed but sometimes it fails. So, It is possible it is blocked when you try to reboot system and you can see a warming saying "there is not rom installed". Don't panic, turn off your phone from power bottom and restart the device. You will see the room installed but not the twrp. In this case, you will have to install TWRP from sideload and then, Supersu from recovery.
4.2. Second option. When the rom instalation has a finished, reboot system to check the rom is installed correctly. Then, restart again your device to fastboot mode and install recovery twrp from sideload. Finally, you can install Supersu from recovery.
This is all! Never settle!
Flash stock recovery? Does it boot?

You don't do that with adb but with Fastboot
Boot into fastboot > fastboot flash recovery-file name.img
Here's what I had to do: flash the new stock recovery in fastboot rather than twrp at all, then boot to it FROM fastboot. Sideload the full firmware (4.0.0, 4.0.1 either should work) and reboot/power off. My phone seemingly bricked at this stage but playing around with the buttons got me back into stock recovery where I got the option to decrypt and wipe. After this it booted up unto a fresh install of 4.0.1.

OK I get all of it so basically I flash stock recovery from fast boot, boot into the new stock recovery via fast boot, then flash ROM and I'm done?
OTA works ONLY if you are on stock recovery, rom, kernel.
I suggest to format data in recovery (this will wipe ALL in youre phone),
flash modified recovery (.22, .23. 28 by eng.stk),
flash FULL rom,
flash SuperSU 2.79 stable, if you want root,
flash recovery,
reboot to recovery,
reboot to rom.

Where can I get the stock recovery download?
something like that happen to me when i try to go back from N to MM oxygen, i managed to fixed it by installing the stock recovery then install the 3.26 plus the 3.26 "modem" (if i didnt install this one, my touch screen wouldnt work) after that it just works, then i updated to 3.28
i havent install twrp and do the root for now because dont have time to tinker yet, but i can just do than whenever i have the time
I think ---- and my solution
I think some script is created as we click update...It's running on boot up and causing this problem...
I had this problem yesterday and it took me a lot of time to get my device to working...
SOLUTION: first backup the data(it backsup apps and such) from twrp and other files which are important for you...copy it to a PC.
follow the second step in this thread(it will wipe everything)
It's not allowing me to post link...It's the mega unbrick guide from Oneplus3 forums
It will take you to older version and then flash full zip(nougat build) from modded twrp..restore the backup..don't update until someone finds a solution...I did that and I'm waiting for a solution to continue...
hope it helps
This is how I solved mine.
1) Go back to stock recovery v2
2) adb sideload oos, flash magisk then flash systemless supersu.

Yes It works
You can grab the stock recovery in the OP3 toolkit here on xda
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/development/toolkit-oneplus-3-toolkit-unlock-t3398799
Flash through fastboot, then flash/sideload a full stock zip. After that your phone should be back in working order and you can flash TWRP back.
Goodluck!

If my phone is rooted, flashing through fastboot the stock recovery will remove root?
