Ok... So a couple of days ago, I was having bootloop issues on Ineffabilis 1.3 using the Anthrax kernel. After doing a battery pull, I booted into the bootloader and then to recovery and found that my roommate, while playing with my phone, had flashed the ClockworkMod Recovery, I suppose through the Rom Manager app.
I figured it would be ok to do a full wipe and re-flash the rom since flashing the stock kernel didn't stop the bootlooping and I would just flash AmonRa back when I was done to do a backup.
Well, after doing a factory reset from CWM and getting errors thereafter trying to flash the superwipe and Ineffabilis, I rebooted the phone and skipped through the setup to get to the restart menu to get into the bootloader again to flash AmonRa. I was able to flash it, but now every time I try to get into the recovery whether from the restart menu, ADB, or through the fastboot menu, it automatically restarts the phone as soon as the recovery is loaded and goes back to the OS.
Has anyone experienced this and is there any way to fix it to get back into it?
Sounds like you have a ph image on your sd card. Just delete it and you should be fine
sent from ics land
I've long since removed all PH files from my phone, internal and external sdcard included, and even if there were that's never stopped my from booting directly into recovery from the restart menu or through ADB.
I've even gone as far as removing the external sdcard with the same result. It just boots into recovery and as soon as it loads for that split second, it automatically reboots to the HTC screen and back to Android.
I still have root and my phone isn't bricked. I just can't flash any roms or kernels in the future when we get our official ics update. WTB my EVO 3D's hboot 1.4 back...

what happens when you try to go to recovery...
i would just reflash a recoveyr in fastboot. cant hurt.
What it does is as soon as it boots to recovery, I see it load the recovery and then as soon as it loads, it's as if the phone automatically selects the reboot option and goes back through the normal boot no matter which method I use to boot into recovery.
I've done the fastboot method which flashed successfully, tried to re-flash clockwork using rom manager, scott's tool, adb & fastboot, also used scott's flash tool which was also successful and it just seems as if recovery mode is borked somehow and using these methods to go back to AmonRa produce the same result. I'm usually good at figuring these things out myself since I've been rooting and flashing since my first Sprint HTC Hero, EVO 4G, 3D, Epic 4G/Touch and I've never had anything like this happen before. Completely stumped .
Have done a search and haven't found anyone with the same issue so I have nothing prior to go off of. The phone works fine for now so I'm in no hurry since I still have root and thankfully Titanium Backup for my apps. Not sure what to try next at this point.

From hboot, choose factory reset and see if it boots you into recovery. I had a similar issue after running the new RUU, once I chose that it booted into custom recovery and i was able to reboot and then afterwards had no trouble accessing recovery.

Ok. I'll give that a whirl in the morning and see if it solves the problem.
Bump... I'm stuck with this issue...
Hi,
Spent the last two days trying everything I could think of to get a custom recovery loaded on my rezound with no luck. Have searched everywhere and short of trying to hex edit some code nothing has worked.
I was on a custom ICS rom and applied the 4.03.605.2 RUU (hboot 2.27). Was S-ON with unlocked bootloader. I locked the bootloader, installed RUU successfully, unlocked the bootloader with my token. I tried flashing amon-ra, CWM, TWRP many versions of each by fastboot and hboot (PH98IMG). The custom recovery is successfully written in each case, but i can't successfully boot into the recovery partition either from fastboot or hboot menu option. I can write the recovery.img file from the RUU zip, and all is good. Ultimately, I am just trying to install a custom ROM/root my device.
I tried the above advice about performing a factory reset. No Dice. So for now, I am stuck in Verizon bloatware land, and very unhappy about it.
Suggestions welcome. Thanks everyone.

Hook up to PC. the phone can actually adb when turned off. or make sure ROM is booted with ADB turned on. It should connect to adb. Does it? Then your command would be "adb reboot recovery" after you have flashed a custom recovery. So what does it do when you try to enter recovery?
Thanks. Did try that, but not with phone off. I'll try both for good measure and let you know. Thank you fly...

Hi Fly,
I was unable to get adb to see the phone when it was off with either a custom recovery or the stock recovery. When I rebooted to recovery from adb with a custom recovery installed, it attempts to boot to the recovery partition but fails and boots back to the OS (this is true when using adb, fastboot, and hboot to boot to recovery). When i reinstalled the stock recovery, it successfully boots to recovery using all methods.
i have tried other custom recovery versions, TWRP (preferred), AMON-RA, CWM Recovery...
annoyed.
Thanks Fly. Any other ideas?

I'm out of ideas. Since your s-on you can't go down to the OTA RUU and try there. Maybe someone else can spread some light.
Well one more idea. Boot your phone into Fastboot. Plug into computer and download a custom recovery to your computer. The command to use is "fastboot boot recovery.img"
If that does work then download http://downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn.com/superuser/Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip and flash it inside of recovery. That will give you root inside your stock rom at least.

Hi Fly,
Nothing doing. Can't flash the attached in stock recovery, can't boot into any recoveries with stock flashed or with custom recovery flashed. Seems there must be some new security built into the new RUU? I did note one thing. When I first flash the RUU the hboot banner says relocked (as i have to relock to install an RUU). However, as soon as I flash anything to the recovery partition it adds a new white on black banner that says tampered. Now, i have seen that before when I s-off'd my rezound previously (returned to verizon for audio problems). I never did s-off this particular phone. I don't recall my first phone flagging a new recovery or this phone flagging a new recovery on the old firmware (i could be wrong though as i don't spend a lot of time in hboot).
Still hoping to put a custom recovery on this. Any other way to load a custom rom? i really want to run Neo's AOKP, as I had that on here before I RUU'd. In fact, i got into this position because I was going to s-off the phone, but I had a custom rom. I started looking for RUU's to restore to stock because controlbear wouldn't work with custom rom. Instead of installing an early ICS again, i opted to install the latest RUU.
I searched the forums high and low and wasn't really able to find anyone with this problem. I wonder if there is something wrong with the RUU? I checked the MD5sum and it matched. When flashing recovery i checked the mainver too, so it isn't that... I'm stumped.
This phone wasn't real popular and is gettting old now (man, the lifecycle on phones suck, I had my N1 through many roms and AOSP releases! These new phones are gone in 6 months, a year tops). I doubt anyone is going to trouble themselves to crack a new HBOOT on this phone (this is 2.27).
Only other things i can think (and I haven't tried yet) is trying zergRushing it for temp root to at least remove/freeze the bloat like I did with this phone when I first got it. Or if I can just get a rom installed without a custom recovery I don't flash as often as I used to and figure an upgrade isn't long off. Or if i could downgrade the hboot or install jb hboot...
Would love it if someone had something new to try.
Thanks so much again Fly and happy holidays.
Success! (but how?)
Ok Fly,
I don't get it... not at all. I tried, just for the hell of it, a little more tonight and my phone was happy to flashboot boot TWRP 2.2.2.1 SPECIFICALLY. I was unable to get other versions working or other custom recoveries. I have no IDEA why. I can only think that the recovery partition is too small for some recovery.imgs? but 2.2.2.1 is actually bigger than 2.3.3.0 that you compiled for the rezound. Anyway, i have ROOT! now, my first step before I dork with anything is to S-Off this bad boy so i can move around a little more. I will probably still leave the locked bootloader after that, just to keep me from n00bing up. Haven't tried flashing the twrp recovery yet, don't want to goof up my S-off chances or not give you a chance to ask a question.
If you want some forensics to help others out, please let me know. I am gonna leave this phone alone for a day in case you have questions. There HAS to be some lesson in here. Totally random to me. (last thought) i was running 2.2.2.1 before I ran the RUU... wonder if that has something to do with it?
Thanks again Fly.

Anytime :fingers-crossed:
Crazy how things work like this. But the recovery partition shouldn't be to small to flash a custom recovery. Good luck. Just sounds like one of those rare things that happens.
Alright so everything was great i was using viper rom on my evo lte, i had been having trouble flashing kernels. I tried some app that would do it, flashed one and now im ****ed. this thing just won't boot up at all it goes in between the (htc quietly stupid) splash screen and the one that you see as you load recovery. (with like the little red writing crap) just back and fourth thats it.... i can access my boot loader and recovery, so far ive wiped the hell out of it, formated the internal card, and tried installing countless different rom. all do the same loop thingy.
PLEASE HELP, ILL TRY ANYTHING!!
Im unlocked with s-on
and hboot-1.15.0000
if u can get into bootloader then wipe and restore your backup.. if u can get into booloader then u should be able to get into recovery from there go into recovery wipe and restore ya backup and u should be good to go.. wipe data.. wipe system.. wipe cash.. wipe dalvik cash
I'm in the same boat except it had nothing to do with kernels... Just all of a sudden everything stopped working... Nothing flashes correctly... Md5 sums never match for restores... If I mess with it long enough twrp stops recognizing my internal SD... I've had to ruu like 3 times because of it... I've tried different recoveries... Countless different wipe methods... Nothing works... I'm lazy panda s-off... Tried both twrp 2.2.1 and even tried clockwork for awhile... After running ruu I re-root and flash either recovery and as soon as I wipe and flash a Rom I'm stuck at the splash no matter what Rom... So with that said I'm stuck with stock for now... No fun stuff anymore...
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
thats why!! clockwork recovery is no good for this phone!! your not supposed to use it..
But as I said I was getting the same problems with twrp... And the internal SD problem happened using twrp... It doesn't matter what recovery I use... I've used both superwipe zips or just plane system wipe within twrp and every time something screws up and I get stuck at the splash screen having to run the ruu bootloader zip just to have a working phone...

Lol don't do that, I'm sure you would regret it. The important thing is that your problem is completely solvable so don't lose hope. Did you take a look at the thread I linked you? If you have the sdk installed you should be able to flash a new boot image, which would be much better than going the RUU route in my opinion.

Try going into recovery from the bootloader and then try the "adb devices" command. I've noticed that I can't issue adb commands while in fastboot also...not sure why. If you can get it to display your device while in recovery, then you know your communication is good. Go back into fastboot and you should be able to do the "fastboot flash boot" command, but rebooting with the adb command will not work for some reason. After you flash the boot image, there should be an option to reboot on your phone that you can select with the volume keys.

Fixed it!!
hey i just kept wiping everything and finally got the boot.img flashed through boot loader in adb or whatever. thank you everyone for your quick help!!
Replaced the screen on my Rezound and now I cannot get past the HTC white splash screen.
I can get in to BOOTLOADER and I found the VIGOR image on the SDCARD. It attempts to install but still can't get past the HTC splash screen.

Is your phone rooted/unlocked? Can you get into fastboot or recovery? What ROM were you running?

I was running CleanROM Standard. S-ON, with root. If I go in to RECOVERY the screen hits the HTC Flash then goes blank.
Thanks for the quick reply, hope to get back up and running soon.
Something is definitely messed up, so you can't even get into recovery?
Sounds like you lost your flash somehow. Can you "fastboot boot recovery.img" of TWRP or Amon Ra (I assume you were using AR since you were on CleanROM), and browse the partitions and see if the files are there? My best guess is you are gonna have to start clean, flash recovery, flash rom, fastboot flash boot boot.img, and see what happens. If that fails I would look at flashing the corresponding RUU to your Hboot version.
Ok.. I will give it a try. I have the Rezound All-In-One Toolkit, so I should be able to do this without any issues.
If I am wrong in my assumption, please let me know.

Ok.. This is what happened.. I removed my SDCARD and loaded BOOTLOADER. I went in to FASTBOOT and ran Hasoon's All In One kit for the Rezound and flashed recovery. I attempted to go in to RECOVERY and I get a blank screen. What I did notice is the loading bar on the right side of the screen never showed it was loading anything. The phone went to black screen, then nothing.
Until I can get in to RECOVERY, I can't load a ROM.
I even went to the command prompt and attempted to run it there, with no luck.
Update: OK.. I thought I would start over with the All In One tool. Seems my token key had changed. I got a new TokenID file from HTC and unlocked the bootloader (even though it was already unlocked) and ran the recovery. But I still get the same issue when entering in to recovery...
FML..
Skip the all in one tool kit... it's nice but you need to do this manually. Use the Fastboot commands to BOOT recovery manually, not flash it.
fastboot boot recovery.img (or whatever the name of the recovery image file is)

I replaced my screen and had EXACTLY the same problem. My phone was fine for a couple of days and then this problem started. I have tried fastboot, loading zips from the ext card, everything you have tried except Hasoon's AIO. Nothing worked. I am also S-on & rooted. I was running Infection 8.2.1 and TWERP 2.6.3.0. I haven't flashed anything in many weeks. I didn't install any new apps. When I boot I get the htc flash screen for a few seconds and then a black screen.

So you are in the same boat as I.. Nothing has worked..
I bought a used phone from Craigslist and have it running now.. I will be installing a ROM soon and then claiming insurance on the busted phone and pay the extortion fee to get another one.. I will end up with two Rezounds (I love this phone) and rooting them both and either have one for a backup or sell it to a friend for pennies on the dollar (what are friends for?)..
Otherwise I now consider it dead.. I will trash this phone to insure my insurance company can't start it to see that it has been rooted. Screw them..
Best of luck on your phone, but I have spent too much time on this one.. Better luck next time for us both..

Hi all,
Since short I cannot start my DX anymore. It boots automatically into the bootloader (fastboot).
When I open recovery it stucks on the opening recovery screen.
When I flash a new recovery it keeps the same problem (already tried 4 of all the available).
When I do fastboot erase cache it still doesn't work.
The ROM is corrupt so that doesn't start too.
I have an unlocked S-Off phone with hboot 25.002 .
could somebody please help me?
I had same problem. The thing is that because you are S-off you must have flashed wrong rom for your hboot and that messed up the internal partitions.
I have also tried every solution you can think of but eventually the only fix was that I sent it to service. It was in waranty and they replaced the motherboard.
downgrade hboot, install ics-ruu and start from scratch.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2667156
Damn!
I have removed my s-off because I thought it wasn't neccesary. Also the commands gave me errors.
But god no, ofcourse it was neccesary, it was a s-off thread.
Now I'm stuck..
Is there any way, or does it really have to be repaired?
Damn, that wasn't smart at all.
so your phone is S-ON now?
and your bootloader is locked/relocked?
no wonder nothing works...
just repeat the unlock-procedure at htcdev and you should be able to flash a custom recovery again.
Download windroid HTC desire x toolkit and install it on Windows pc. connect your phone in fastboot and install twrp recovery. Hope this will work.

would be great to know what the phone's doing exactly? cause there's a huge difference in "not booting" and "not switching on"
My HTC One M8 from AT&T got stuck in a boot loop after I unlocked it, put a custom recovery on it, and then tried to put a custom ROM on it.
I tried to put InsertCoin on there and it got stuck in a boot loop for some reason.
I got the SDK kit and tried doing a adb push my NANDroid I did originally (before trying the ROM) and so I have my NANDroid backup.
I just can't push anything to my SDCard because it keeps saying "adb shell ls /mnt/sdcard/" no such file or directory exists
same thing with "adb shell ls /sdcard/" no such file or directory exists.
I have my NANDroid backup (before the soft brick) and, a new ROM (Viper One M8 2.3.0)
so how do I "adb push" a file onto a filesystem that I have no access to?
Thanks!
**EDIT**
adb push viperOne.zip /sdcard says "protocol failure"
It's as if I have no rights to push anything.
When I try to "install from .zip" it says "unable to mount SDCard"
Hope this helps
adb push viperOne.zip /sdcard/. is what it should be @command. make sure rom zip is in same location as adb/fastboot files

Are you booted into recovery when running that command?If so and still getting that error... Gonna have to attempt running an ruu then see if it clears it up, try to flash back stock recovery, boot into bootloader connect to computer and run the ruu. s-on or s-off?
It is S-ON
Also I have a nandroid backup. But because I can't adb push anything, I can't even run the nandroid backup to restore.
It won't mount my SD card.
I have to do an RUU? How do I do that?
ok so did you try to flash the kernel [email protected] s-on device? since rom has been flashed... pull the kernel from the rom zip you flashed and copy it to adb/fastboot location,boot into bootloader,connect via fastboot, then run fastboot flash boot boot.img
I didn't do a kernel. It was just default.
That seems too complicated.
I somehow fixed my issue but getting CyanogenMod and flashing that using sideload. For the first time ever sideload worked.
However when I got the Google play services, it kept crashing when I opened it, any reason why? I have the CM nightly 20140830
Thanks!
Cant help you on that,better to ask in the devs thread for that software your running. Good luck.

What recovery? If TWRP, try CWM as SD mount issue (while sideload works) is a problem I've seen here several times before on TWRP.

This forum is for the M8, not the M7. Not only that, but the AT&T version, not Sprint.
You should post to your device specific forum section. As the devices are completely different hardware, advice given here may not work for your M7 and may even damage it.
HTC One M8 (AT&T) Soft-Brick Bootloop
Hey everyone, I'm new to XDA and am a bit of a noob at flashing so take it easy on me
Here's my problem: As implied by the title, my AT&T One M8 is stuck in a bootloop at the white HTC screen and won't boot me into my rom. Something to note is that there's a little open gray lock icon at the bottom of the white screen. After a moment the screen just takes me to Philz recovery. Also, the phone was previously rooted and is currently S-On (no firewater support for AT&T yet), with my custom recovery (Philz). Unfortunately, I did not make a backup of my phone (I know, bad move) but at this point I just want the thing to work properly!
What happened: With a stock GPE Rom by Graffixnyc, I installed Google's stock recovery in hopes of recieveing the 4.4.4 OTA; the rom I had was 4.4.2. A day later I get the 4.4.4 OTA, accept and install it, and then that's what started the bootloop. I haven't gotten back into the OS since. In addition, my computer does not recognize my device when it's connected, although fastboot and adb commands do work.
What I've tried: Flashing through both TWRP and Philz, trying two different GPE roms. Neither worked, even through adb sideloading I get the same error. To transfer files from my computer to phone I've been using a micro SDcard with an SD adapter. I've also tried doing a factory wipe through Philz and even flashed a 'fix permissions' emulator.
I'd imagine that I need a One M8 factory image just for a fresh clean start, but apparantly HTC only has one for the unlocked developer edition. Would I be able to use this version of the factory image/obtain one for the AT&T model or is there a different route I need to go?
Thanks in advance for the help; this seems like a great community to be involved in!!

Did you do the full conversion, of just flashed the GPE ROM?
If you didn't do the full conversion, GPE uses a different partition layout, bootloader, and different CID (and MID?) than Sense, so any one or all of those can be your issue.
What happens if you try to boot into bootloader and select recovery?

Not sure why you think that. RUUs are available here:
http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8-att/news/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-htc-one-m8/general/htc-one-m8-ruu-m8ul-4-4-3-t2860423
Proper CID and relocked bootloader required to run RUU with S-on. And hboot number of the RUU must be equal or greater than what you have installed.

Not enough info, please do fastboot getvar all, and post the output (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).
You probably used an obsolete version TWRP, and obsolete SuperSU. But I need to see the getvar data, plus what TWRP version and what SuperSU version, to know for sure or advise any more.
