Hi
I have an AT&T HTC ONE that is stuck in a bootloop. I can go into fastboot mode but not my recovery. I wanted to try to reflash the recovery but whenever I try to flash it on my Win 8.1, it says waiting for device. However, the prompt "adb devices" does not detect my phone.
!) I have installed SDK Tools.
2)I have HTC sync installed for the drivers.
3)I have the recovery image
Any help would be great.
Side Question:
If I factory reset and reinstall clockwork recovery, will I still be able to access my back up or does factory reset wipe everything???
Thanks.

Yeah, I got my roommates computer. Installed HTC SYNC, SDK Tools, used USB 2.0 drivers and the phone was not detected.
Could I have possibly installed SDK tools incorrectly???

Still trying to fix this I now have no recovery and just get the two icons wipe data and fast boot or it just keeps trying to load a Rom that isn't there so it sticks on the main logo screen if I could get it to show in windows that would be great but now I have no recovery I'm not sure how to even get it to install anything once I do !

As long as you have the fastboot logo, there should be hope. First, you will need to do whatever you can to get your computer to recognize fastboot mode. In order to do this, click on the fastboot icon on your prime and then plug your usb into your pc. What does windows say? Is the device showing in the windows device manager?

It shows up but then says failed to install driver will try it on different pc,s see if it works thanks for the replies seems fairly easy
Ive found on my device that it sometimes requests two different drivers. One for adb/fastboot, and one for mtp. I just cancel the one for mtp as they are not in the naked driver set, and windows then detects another different device.

Okay, you're half way home! The reason why nothing shows in adb is because fastboot and adb are two completely different interfaces. When in fastboot, your device will be expecting the fastboot command only.
Now what you will have to do is find a recovery that is in the blob format. Cwm would probably be okay. Twrp would be good, however the new version requires the nvflash version of the bootloader.
Once you find the blob of the recovery you want, place this in the same folder as the file fastboot.exe
It should be in the same place as adb. If not, place the blob somewhere easy to remember.
Then in a command prompt, type
fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery blobfilename
If you placed the blob in the same place as fastboot, then the above will be the blob filename, or better would be to include the path as well.

hi guys and girls happy to report that thanks to the community my prime is aliiiive !!! used a utility off here called knives and forks to install adb and then downloaded fast boot and extracted to my users directory then used the fast boot command to push the blob to the prime into recovery then used adb push adb push virtuous_prime_s_9.4.2.21_v1.zip /sdcard/ and installed virtuous to get it running then it all shows up thankyou to everyone so happy took all of five minutes lol. my trip to london for 3 hours will be less boring now !!!:laugh::highfive:
I messed up I know I did but please help me! I have an HTC One X+ (AT&T) and currently I'm at a dead end. I tried to install and flash Cyanogenmod 10 but my phone did not boot up. I panicked and wiped the whole SD like an idiot to get the ROM off. But now I have no OS to boot up in and no Roms in my SD to Flash. My PC no longer recognizes my phone is connected when in TWRP. So I've tried multiple ways like Side loading or using the ADB Push command but nothing seems to work. I've heard if you have an OTG Cable you can stick a Flash Drive directly in and transfer the ROM on that way. Any help is appriciated!
As far as i know, USB on the go only works when Android is booted. Even if you wiped the device it should affect your device being recognized in recovery. Are you sure you have all the drivers installed?

I'm almost 100% guaranteed I have the correct drivers. HTC Sync boots up whenever my phone was plugged in (When it had an OS) and let me access the phones files. Is there any other methods of pushing the ROM.zip in the CMD? Thanks for the reply BTW.
Your best bet is sideloading. But sometimes it takes ages before your device is detected in recovery... If i was you i'd boot into recovery, connect to your PC, then go make something to eat \ go for a walk \ have a game of COD ect lol Come back in 15 mins then try sideloading.

uninstall htc sync, it messes with adb\fastboot.
uninstalling htc sync, won't uninstall the drivers
Hey, well I finally got the ROM onto my device but now comes a new issue. The phone will not boot after I install the ROM. (I've tried multiple Roms just to see if the one I chose was incompatible). No ROM is working. Here's what I'm doing.
Open boot loader
Select fastboot
Go on my PC and type "fast boot flash boot boot.img" in CMD
Then I go into recovery mode (TWRP)
Clean the dalvik-cache and cache
Go to install
Install the rom
Reboot the device
Sits in boot screen "Htc quietly brilliant"

Hi HTC Guru's
i've get a HTC Desire X from a friend, for repair service. his phone starts only in fastboot. no chance to start android.
with fastboot i have unlocked the bootloader with htcdev.
but i cant install any recovery to install stock or custom rom. all what i do fails! i'm stuck at this problem
what can i do now? i cant disable or enable usb debugging, because there's no rom installed.
thanks a lot ...
I assume the startupscreen states S-ON and UNLOCKED.
Did you connect your phone to PC and are you flashing the recovery with the fastboot command (DOS command)? Are you sure the phone is recognized in Windows (if you are using Windows..)?

yes, i have tried installing TWRP via fastbooth. but nothing happens. the phone is recognized in windows. if i plugin the phone, in display i get "Fastboot USB". unlocking the bootloader was able, too.
What happens when you execute 'fastboot devices'? Nothing or a number?
If nothing: which OS do you have? If Windows 8 > try another computer with a lower version.
I'm on way to work. Can't look now. I mean, in display stands '0123456789 device' or something like that.
It's hboot from ICS. And I have the right version of twrp.
And of course I use Windows 8.i don't have windows 7 already.
Just to be sure, maybe I misunderstand your info: fastboot (from Google's Android SDK) is a DOS command, executed from a DOS box (phone connected USB). Are you executing the command that way?
If so, probably for sure that Windows 8 recognizing your phone is your problem if nothings happens. No laptop? Copy the fastboot.exe and your recovery-file and try to flash it on W7 or XP :silly: ("fastboot flash recovery yourtwrp-filename")
Yes, I do it with cmd at admin rights under win 8. I know the usage of cmd. I have successfully customized my HTC sensation and note 4 as well.
Can I run win7 in live mode or in a virtual machine?
So, if there is no respons on 'fastboot devices' it is probably a driverproblem. If that can be solved by a virtual W7? I don't know, don't think so. Anybody else?
"As you all may now, Microsoft pushed the new driver stack in Windows 8.1 so ALL (not only USB 3.0) devices must provide a BOS descriptor. Sony ADB and Fastboot doesn't, so Windows fails to enumerate the device which is reported in Device Manager as error code 43. This also may help if you have a USB drive or mouse and it stopped working after you upgraded from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1."
There is a trick to bypass this by replacing the USB-drivers with the USB.zip files (this link). I had a bit of trouble afterwards
Installing PDAnet seemed to work for me (tried most drivers to no avail on win8/ 8.1)
Is this the same on all USB ports? tried on a different machine yet?
Never tried on VM but I don't think it would work as it still uses the same resources (USB ports, etc.)
Fastboot runs. I have no driver issues. But I get some errors if I try to install twrp or roms. Without twrp, I can't install a rom. That's my problem. Not the drivers. But I understand, if Windows 8 works different in command line as Windows 7 does.
It can be possible.
I try pdanet driver, when I went home from work in round about 8 hours... So on, thanks for you help
Aha, an error. That was not clear to me - it differs from 'nothing happens'.
Did you select the right TWRP? HBoot 1.25=JB or HBoot 1.24=ICS. Look at this page
Oh sorry. I have told you wrong information. Hboot is 1.25. But I have the twrp for jelly bean tried to install. But an error occurred.
I'll take a look at your link later at night. Thanks.
here are the error i get in cmd console:
Code:
c:\Users\my_name\Desktop\htcbootloader>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (7868 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.268s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: image update error)
finished. total time: 1.379s
i still have searched google and this forum for this error, but without a solution.
here is a screenshot from bootloader menu.

Right mouse click on 'image update error', contextual search, gives me a lot of extra info. Could it be that you picked a wrong version? Is it called 'twrp-2.8.5.0-protou.img'?
Or else: try to install an old TWRP from this page.
I have tried 271 for jb hboot,which should be the right version.. But I can try the ones in your link...

You can't access TWRP because you over-wrote it with the factory RUU firmware image, it isn't there anymore...
Download TWRP image from TWRP official site at https://dl.twrp.me/vigor/ or Flyhalf's build at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1902381
Either one is good... then start fastboot, connect usb and flash recovery with the command:
fastboot flash recovery <path/filename of TWRP IMG file>
give it a minute or so, reboot into Hboot and start TWRP.
im having a similar issue but my computer always says waiting for device in command prompt. I have all the drivers installed and the phone says "usb fastboot" or "fastboot usb" (cant recall what order those 2 words are in LoL)

You probably have a driver issue then... Install HTC Sync, connect the phone, then disconnect it, remove HTC Sync and it should work. If that doesn't work, try a different USB port.
Honestly, I switched to Linux a long time ago... I don't have driver issues. If you were running Linux, even a live or USB key distro, you would access it easily.

fair point, and i do have ubuntu (of differing flavor dates) on 3 of my machines, so i might just do that. Thanks!! Ill also try the goofy htcsynch (which i forgot about, as im a Sammy guy now) Thanks again!!
Hello,
I've installed the CM13 correctly but as other people I couldn't connect with wifi (had "authentification problem"), so I tried the reset factory.
The problem now is the tablet get an infinite loop at boot with the cyanogen logo and I cannot access the Bootloader.
I don't know what to do ... I'd appreciate your help
Just go into recovery, wipe clean, flash rom of choice, flash Gapps, reboot
And if cm13 is having an issue for you just try another rom, there are still many to choose from in the Nexus 10 forums

the recovery mode doesn't work. I may have found a solution to the soft unbrick using fastboot and the cmd but my tablet isn't recognized by the PC. I have tried to uninstall the driver, download manually it, that always result as an installation failed.
I can't see my nexus in PC but there is still the sound when I plug.
