Htc one m8s won't boot up after relocking bootloader - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So my friend used a all in 1 toolkit to root his phone but failed when it came to booting into recovery to install su after that he can't boot into recovery, can't factory reset his phone and when he wants to turn his phone on after it has switched off he needs to hold down power+vol up and down as when the batterie is flat the charging icon pops up with the yellow bolt of electricity and the orange light, when this happens the phone is frozen on that screen but he can turn it on.
Just yesterday he saw a tutorial on how to relock his bootloader and start fresh so he can try again to root his phone but now his phone can't even boot it's stuck on the HTC powered by android screen with same issues as b4

That's your biggest mistake ... all in 1 toolkit
There is no such tool that would work on your M8s device.
You need different fastboot not the generic, you need different TWRP (that is made for M8s) and you need the updated SuperSU not the one provided by that old TWRP version that you have in that outdated toolkit.

Again ... you can't simply use any RUU .,.. the one for M8 won't work on M8s.
The RUU that works on your M8s is 0PKVIMG_M8_QL_UL_M60_SENSE70_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.1 _Radio_1.0.U20410.1 @ 60201_20.05_018_F_release_479349_combined_signed.zip

Bricked my HTC One M8 - No OS

Hi everyone!
OK, I'm sick as a dog, so I know I shouldn't have been doing this today, but..
I was trying to update my HTC One M8 with Cyangenmod, (cm-13.0-20160314-NIGHTLY-m8). I had been having problems with TWRP reading my SD card, so I decided to go ahead and wipe my phone and try reinstalling using fastboot. I used TWRP for the wipe, but I used the advanced option, and it seems that I wiped everything, including the OS from my phone. Now, all I get when I boot is this screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have tried holding the power and volume down buttons but I can't get back to the recovery. Both adb and fastboot do not seem to be able to see my phone:
Does anyone have any suggestions one how I can fix this?
Thanks

Can you go to bootloader or only this screen ?

Only this screen. My phone won't even power down.
OK, I was just able to get into the bootloader and I can also get into TWRP. I have a micro USB chip that I can put into the phone. Should I copy the files onto the chip and use TWRP to flash? There is also an option for "adb sideload" in TWRP.
Whew!
OK, using sideload, I was able to flash Cyanogenmod back onto my phone!
Every thing should be fine now! (fingers crossed!)
You also can copy files with mounting from twrp.

Phone stuck on boot screen, bootloader fails

I have my cousin's phone right here - just yesterday he tried to update to Lollipop. He was on stock TouchWiz, no root or anything of the sort and installed the update.
Now, if I try to turn on the phone, all I get is this screen and it just stays there forever:

}
If I try to boot into the bootloader, all I get is this: https://goo.gl/photos/WBSAcHhALQ9Jmz2n9
I really don't know what I would do here - can you do anything once your bootloader is f*ed up?
If it helps, the phone's model is SM-N7505
Yes, the same issue happened with me today on Note3 Neo. I rebooted the phone and it stuck on the same place. Checked in local phone repairing shop unable to make hard reset. They are suspecting of hardware issue. What could be the coz of this?

How would I do that without being able to access the bootloader? I haven't done much with Samsung devices yet, only with my HTC phones. I've heard of the name ODIN though... Are there any tutorials you can recommend?
You don't need bootloader to flash stock rom via Odin, you only need to access Download mode (vol. down+home+lock). You can look up tutorials on YT. Just type "How to flash stock Samsung rom using Odin". Hope that helps somehow

*HELP NEEDED* HTC One M8 Bootloop

Hello, I tried rooting my phone following this tutorial from a youtuber named Max Lee. since I am a noob. Everything was going fine until I flashed the SuperSU (As shown in the vid). I rebooted it and it got stuck in a bootloop. I tried multiple methods to get out, but I ended up relocking the bootloader and now I can't get into recovery. Since I hit rock bottom (which is why I am making this thread lol), I just need to know if there is anyway I can resolve this issue, or I need to know if my phone is just hard bricked.

@zedomax! His tutorials are good. He also has a website for that at htconeroot.com
But here's the problem, that tutorial is over two years old, so the TWRP recovery and SuperSU app linked there are outdated and won't work with the newer firmware.
Here's what to do:
Unlock your bootloader again.
Flash the latest TWRP in fastboot that you can download from here
From there you can either flash a ROM (almost all of them come pre-rooted with SU already installed), or flash the latest stable SuperSU.zip in recovery that you can download from here.
The easiest is to just flash TWRP, then a custom ROM.
Good luck!

[help] cannot boot into TWRP or ROM after flashing autorec TWRP

I have two G3 D855 phones and what i did was exactly the same as my primary one, and it's not working
For the secondary phone
1) everything was perfect after I changed 32GB chips (ROM, my friend flashed something wrong and hard bricked the device) from repair shop, but I just lost the IMEI, so it's showing 0 currently (i know i can repair but don't bother yet)
2) phone is normal in 6.0MM nor I use LGUP to downgrade to 5.0 LP
3) used "newest root method v03" from there to root the phone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-method-lg-devices-t3129197
4) go to playstore, download AutoRec D855 to install TWRP
5) problem starts here
once i reboot to TWRP using reboot widget, or adb command, i can go into TWRP, but phone stuck in LG logo after another reboot
To boot up the OS again, I have to take out the battery for 10+ min, then insert it again and it will boot up, and i can also go into TWRP from the OS
or if i turn off device, I cannot boot up, not until i take out the battery for 10+ min
I have flashed the phone using KDZ twice and same problem, after install TWRP from AutoRec, I have this bootup problem.
Any help please?

HTC One M9, Blue screen problem

Hello guys, I am a new member but I have been browsing XDA for years now, but I need serious help at this moment. I bought an HTC One M9, flashed twrp, rooted it and installed a custom ROM, the problem begins when I noticed that Wi-Fi and bluetooth were not working at all, even trying to connect to a different wifi or wifi hotspot with and without security, there was nothing that could make the wifi work, so I decided to go back to stock BUT (I know this is really noob and I regret it) I did not make a back up of the official firmware, so I had a really hard time searching for solutions so I finally decided to get it S-OFF, it worked and then I tried to flash Nougat firmware from download mode and something went wrong, because after the flashing, I went back to bootloader mode and then try to go back again to download mode and the blue screen appeared, rebooting my phone into bootloader, I tried flashing twrp again (new and old versions) but I could not manage to get it into recovery mode either, so that's it! I am stuck in Bootloader, I cant go to download mode or recovery mode, so I need a solution and good guidance, what are my options? do not tell me please that I can use it as a paperweight now...please guys! I will appreciate any help.
Phone information:
Model: HTC ONE M9
MID: 0PJA120
OS: 3.39.531.7 ( before flashing it to OS 4.x.x and getting the blue screen)
CID: T-MOB010
Unlocked
S-OFF
Radio: 01.01_U11440801_97.04.60111G_F
