I guess it was bricked when installing the individual patch for the youtube app, the day after that all my app have crushed instantly when trying to open them thus I have decided to reboot my device.
I have tried your method and it unfortunately failed. When I have connected my phone to the pc and hold down the volume down button I have heard the sound of a device that connected to my pc then I tried to enter the recovery mode which ended in a bootloop.

Did ur device work now?
If not try this
Well if you heard a sound in ur pc well then the device might be in adb mode
have u installed all the adb drivers with htc usb drivers if yes
Open adb or official ruu program and flash the stock rom
This method might work

Have you tried reflashing stock recovery? Also shouldn't you be in the AT&T One X forum unless of course you have the international version of the One X.
I have tried the stock recovery, but now its in fastboot and won't get recognized by adb on my pc as it did. It just boot loops now at that screen and won't get recognized. And this isn't at. &t

You're suppose to flash stock recovery in fastboot.
I know, I tried when it was getting recognized, now I can't even pick it up with adb
so its telling me to flash the stock RUU, but i cant use adb commands it wont recognize in fastboot, the computer dings when i plug it in, but adb devices comes up with nothing, i tried every usb port on my pc and everything

First of all ADB only works in RECOVERY mode not directly in bootloader. So do the following steps & instal custom rom (Any1 u like).
1. You need recovery.img in your fastboot directory
2. Go into bootloader and connect phone
3. Then use: "fastboot boot recovery.img" (thus booting your image from pc and not the installed recovery).
4. When in recovery, you can use the adb commands.
5. You can try with "adb devices" which should show you serial of phone.
6. command: adb push rom_rom.zip /sdcard
credits to broncogr for finding that adb works if you use fastboot boot command and to Jotha for helping me out!

Maybe there is hope since the computer can identify the phone! Try running
Code:
adb reboot recovery
from the command line.
over loyetryi
Thanks a million! I'm off the hook!
For others a step by step solution:
You need to:
- have a backup on your recovery.
- your phone must at least turn on.
- your computer must identify your phone as "Android device" when connected via usb cable.
What to do:
- Download SDK at developer.android com
- Unrar and execute SDK Manager
- In SDK Manager Install 'Android SDK Tools' and 'Android SDK Platform-tools'
This creates a folder named 'adb' usualy in your main computer disk. Mine was in location C:/adb
- start comand prompt. In Start, type cmd in the search field.
- connect phone to the pc
- in comand prompt type:
cd c:/adb
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
adb reboot recovery
- Your phone should load recovery. In recovery load your backup.
Good luck!

[Q] Booting trouble

I recently tried to flash back from Lego Rom to stock ZVC and have hit some trouble. I used CWM to clear the caches/data, as per usual, but after installing the ZVC rom the phone just boot loops at the Lego Rom boot screen.
Normally, I would jump into recovery, but my volume buttons no longer work (they failed after a screen replacement, I suspect the ribbon cable is damaged). What are my options? Can ADB force it into recovery for me?
I've installed the latest USB drivers, but ADB is not recognizing any devices (at the ROM booting screen or at the charging/battery graphic). Do I have any options beyond buying a new volume button ribbon cable?
I have the same issue in windows and ubuntu. Will LGNPST be able to communicate with the device?

well first of all yes you can reboot recovery using adb.
But if you installed the zvc rooted ROM then why is it booting Lego?
You can install philz or twrp for a full touch recovery and not need volume buttons. You'll still need to use cmd to do "adb reboot recovery" or adb reboot fastboot". You can also flash recovery from adb. Just get a recovery.IMG I think it's adb fastboot flash recovery.IMG or whatever the name of the recovery is.
But if ADB doesn't return any devices when I execute "ADB devices" how can I get it to send a reboot signal to the phone? When I tried "ADB reboot recovery" I was given an error about no device connected.

I must have not been thinking the whole picture. What can the phone do? What happens when you turn it on, do the volume buttons work at all? Because if you can get into recovery or fastboot at all then something can be done try multiple combinations as much as possible. I'm thinking hold the power button down and plug in USB. Wait for something to happen then let go of power. Does your computer ever recognize something is plugged in? Maybe during boot?

I have messed up, I don't know where to turn. HTC One M8 softbricked in Bootloop.

I have an HTC One m8 that is stuck on Bootloader. It is an unlocked bootloader with S-Off. I had CWM but I installed stock recovery back onto the phone before flashing a stock kernel (I was trying to make the phone look untampered with before I turned it over to my provider), the Kernel came with a sha1 and was from a trusted website and I am 100% sure it was the right compatible Kernel I'm pretty sure I just had a bad flash.
I have tired the following to get the phone past the bootloader:
1. Fastboot USB Mode --> Try to get ADB to recognize the device --> Debugging mode isn't on (obviously) --> ADB can't recognize the device.
2. Use AndroidSDKSlim/ Android SDK tools / Android Utility to remotely turn on Debugging mode (I got nowhere with this)
3. Attempted to use PdaNet to remotely turn on Debugging mode (got nowhere)
4. HTC Sense doesn't even know whats going on
I just need to get TWRP or CWM or litearlly Any recovery installed. That's all I need, I can do everything from there. I can't remotely install a recovery via adb because adb can't recognize my device because I can't turn Debugging mode on because my device is softbricked!!! Gahhhh. I haven't been able to come up with a way to remotely enable debugging mode or to get adb to recognize my device.
Any ideas/comments/suggestions would be heavily appreciated - I've resourced from every relevant thread I could find. Posting here was a last resort I try to fix things on my own but I'm too many days into this with no results please anybody.
ADB won't work while on fastboot mode. ADB only while in recovery or on OS running.
You don't need USB debugging on for fastboot
fastboot devices - see whether your device is listed with serial no.
if yes then run
fastboot flash recovery NameofRecovery.img

Thank you for reply!
I have not been able to get ADB to recognize the device, which is pretty much my whole issue right now. It does not appear under the devices list. If I can just get adb talking with my phone everything else should be easy, I just can't figure out why it's not recognizing it.

1) Reboot the phone using Power+Vol Up
2) The moment the screen goes dark to reboot and before the white HTC logo screen appears again (Should be around 10 seconds), press the volume down key.... Do not let go of vol down until you see the bootloader screen
3) If the bootloader doesn't appear, you either started pressing Vol Down too late, or let go of it too early. Just do the steps again until you get it right.
4) Once you are in the bootlader, select select fastboot by pressing power key.
5)you can flash either permanent or temporary a TWRP recovery once you are in fastboot.
6)Once you are in recovery mode, you can transfer any custom rom to memory or sd card, then install it from the place you chose.
7) you can flash RUU file at fatboot mode as well.

HTC One Won't Start Up

So I was running a custom ROM for a while and decided to switch back to the stock ROM. After doing that, I flashed the stock recovery so that I could install the OTA update from version 4.28.502.2 to version 6.20.502.5. During installation, the phone got stuck in a bootloop, so I wiped the cache and tried to start it again. After that didn't work, I factory reset it (in the bootloader, and then in recovery after it didn't work), and it still doesn't work. ADB and fastboot doesn't detect my device even though I had USB debugging on before I tried to update it (I'm guessing that the factory reset disabled that?). I can access the bootloader and recovery, and my phone has an unlocked bootloader with S-On. I have the AT&T HTC One M8 if that helps. Can someone help me please?
Hi,
Can you go to boot loader and then connect your phone into your computer after that you flash the recovery like TWRP, wipe all the data and reflash your rom, you can find it on XDA. After that you have to find the correct recovery for your device (see the website of Mike1987), find the correct recovery for your device and then flash the stock recovery and it have to work. Waiting for your news.
Have a nice day

Have you got the right drivers installed, have you tired another hub ? Is your battery fully charged ?

Yes, I have the right drivers installed. Yes, I have tried a different USB port. Yes, my battery is fully charged.
Try to uninstall the drivers and download the HTC drivers, fastboot and adb from Internet and try again. Do you have another PC? Because one time i have got the same problem than you and when i take another PC it's worked.

The drivers fail to install everytime, and I've tried on three different PCs
Your problem is not the phone cause it detected by the PC but the drivers failed to detect you HTC. Can you say if you boot your phone in the boot loader, the phone show you if is in boot loader connected by usb or not?

adb won't work on bootloader/fastboot mode. Only fastboot does.
When on fastboot, type command fastboot devices, do you get your device serial no. ?
On bootloader/fastboot, what is x the OS-x.xx.502.x now ?

Seems like your main issue was not properly using fastboot mode for fastboot, and realizing that adb doesn't work in bootloader mode? That, and having the proper firmware and RUU files.
