So basically, my phone will only boot to the bootloader. I can run it in fastboot and access it through my PC but I cannot boot into Recovery or OS.
Was my first attempt in rooting a phone and obviously i've done something wrong (started happening when I tried to flash a recovery).
I've tried reflashing the stock recovery but no luck yet as every time I try to boot into recovery from bootloader it either reboots to the HTC logo and pauses or reboots into bootloader.
I've also tried reflashing the system where I'm met with the fastboot error
target reported max download size of 16777216 bytes
erasing 'system'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.002s
It does the same for Userdata and the same error occurs when I try to erase/format the System, Userdata and boot.
My bootloader reads:
*** Software status: Modified ***
***UNLOCKED***

The way I fixed mine was basically reflashed the RUU using the command 'fastboot oem rebootRUU' and selected the RUU that works on my phone. To get the RUU I had to do some digging but if you end up trying, make sure that it is the right one just in case it sends you into a deeper hole.

phone was running fine then the battery died, upon power up the phone now has no recovery menu, can't access it, blips a white screen with android skateboarders for a sec then instantly pops Hboot menu with fastboot options.
Iv'e tried fastboot erse cache, user data, flash recovery, twrp flashes nothing works I get error FAILED (remote: image update error) Oem unlock failed too.

Hei guys I managed to **** up my HTC M8 pretty bad (I think..)
I had a rooted M8 with 4.4.4 so 5.0.2 came out a few days ago and I tried to update my phone today. To do so I wanted to unroot my phone so I did the following things:
1. I did a factory reset using the option in Clockworkmod
2. I flashed the stock recovery to my phone
3. I (re)locked my bootloader
The problem is something seems to be wrong with the flashed recovery, Factory Resetting or booting into recovery just restarts the phone and the OTA also just reboots the phone. Unlocking the bootloader and CHECK SMARTSD also won't work anymore..
I really don't know what to do now/where to ask for help..
Here is some information I can provide:
Bootloader looks like this:
*** Software status: Modified ***
*** Relocked ***

Hope you can help me, thanks for reading.
Unrooting and relocking the bootloader was a useless move. OTA accepts rooted phones and with bootloader unlocked. OTA needs a stock recovery and a clean system.
What you can do is flash via adb TWRP and restore a working backup of your firmware.
P.S. Delete your IMEI and SERIAL NUMBER from your post.

What i have tried doing so far was to try unlock the bootloader and also tried using one of the RUU files. The bootloader failed (on the terminal it completed everything and the phone rebooted to the phase where it asks for confirmation. After the confirmation, it reboots back to the same white ***Locked*** screen. Im assuming the Locked means the bootloader is still locked.) The RUU exe fails due to Error 171( no idea what it means). I just tried
*Edit: So i tried following what was said in this thread. When i put the sd card in, the phone displays CID incorrect, Update fail. I am unsure why it says this as i picked an RUU that had the same radio number as the phone. (0PKVIM[email protected]60201_20.05_018_F_release_479349_combined_signed is the one i tried using)
Any ideas what steps to take? Thanks in advance
Error 171 is a connection error, meaning the RUU can't connect to/find your phone.
Edit: after your SD method, what was the error code?
Hello Guys.
I just bought htc m8s which is bricked. It stuck in boot loader / fastboot mode.
When i want to turn it on, hboot starts and after select recovery phone goes to fastboot.
Boot loader is unlocked and its impossible to relock it.
I allredy tried to flash twrp via fastboot, and flash ruu via sd card. I was using 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.z ip
And it finished with an error : "device halted due to large image update fail" due to unlocked bootloader.
I have no idea what to do, will be grateful for any help

I have the same issue of an UNLOCKED bootloader. From other forums it is a required to be in LOCKED mode to flash boot images. The phone is not recognized by USB.
I have tried to use 'Terminal Emulator' with instructions posted here - "forums.androidcentral.com/verizon-galaxy-nexus-rooting-roms-hacks/209313-unroot-relock-my-nexus.html#post2160467"
I could not find param.zip that is needed to be installed on the SD card.
Any help is appreciated to restore this excellent paperweight to its former glory.
