Borked my attempts at flash ROMs on my Sprint M7; cell service is gone now

Hey everyone, and thanks in advance for the help.

I have an HTC One M7 from Sprint, and tried to follow this yesterday:

htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-to/convert-your-htc-one-m8-into-google-play-edition-0154471/

(How to convert to a Google Play Edition)

Now, I did of course find the M7 guide and try to go through it, but I forgot to get S-Off, and so I was also unable to get it to work. I then tried to get S-Off to work but basically had a hard time because I'm on a Mac. Somewhere along the line, I actually found that most ROMs would not flash properly (using TWRP, wiping caches, etc.). I was able to get one version of Cyanogenmod (Lollipop) to run perfectly....except there was no cell service (web or calling).

Since then I've probably done a lot of dumb "hey just try this!" When I try to flash into recovery I'm getting a red exclamation point now, which is a new thing that seems even worse.

So this is a long way of saying: it's all pretty borked right now. What can I do to give myself a good chance of at least being able to use my phone as a phone again? I feel like I need to flash a Sense ROM to get cell service back, but those threads seem to be a bit on the old side, so I haven't found any that would work.

Can anyone help? In case you need it, here are some stats I grabbed at some point:

(bootloader) version: 0.5

(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.57.0000

(bootloader) version-baseband: N/A

(bootloader) version-cpld: None

(bootloader) version-microp: None

Thanks in advance, and happy new year!

It sounds as if you may have been flashing roms that are not compatible with your sprint device. You have to be careful with Sprint phones as they have a different partition structure to other M7s.

I think its best to return your device to stock so you can start fresh. Also to get s-off you will need to use Sunshine App. It costs $25 to use but its the only method that will work with your hboot 1.57. Only other method is Firewater which has been discontinued so will no longer work. To return your device to stock follow the below procedure ;)

Download this RUU exe https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95747613655046712

Download this firmware zip and put it in your fastboot folder. Rename it "firmware.zip" https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95747613655046757

Reboot the phone into the bootloader and connect fastbootusb. In the fastboot command line type.

fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader

The device will reboot and should now say ***RELOCKED*** in the bootloader. Relocking is required because your s-on

fastboot oem rebootRUU

**---case sensitive ---^^^

Your phone will reboot to a black screen with silver HTC logo. This is ruu mode we can now flash the firmware.

fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

The first flash is just a pre-update. The screen will go off and then return to ruu mode. Flash the zip again immediately.

fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

The second flash will flash the firmware, the progress bar on the screen will not reach 100% this is normal as long as the command line has finished it's output it's done.

fastboot reboot-bootloader

with the phone still in the bootloader connected with fastboot usb run the RUU exe on your pc.

After that your software will be completely stock. You will need to update it again. But can do it with OTA updates. Let me know how that goes and we'll take it from there :good:[/QUOTE]

Quick clarifying question: how do I know where the fastboot folder is on my Mac?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Ahh my bad total brain fart on the Mac thing. The ruu requires a Windows pc as it's a .exe. You can extract the zip from it and flash it on Mac. But you'll need a Windows machine to do that. I can help with that if you need but it will take time to download and re-upload the ruu.

Do you have access to a Windows machine?

And to answer your question the fastboot folder is the folder adb/fastboot are installed in ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ManImCool:
I've been having problems with my phone's basic functions lately. I cannot hear phone calls, and they cannot hear me. Does not matter if I am dialing or receiving. Reboots don't seem to do anything anymore, although they used to temporarily fix it. I've cleared data/caches for Google Play, google services, and google framework multiple times. I've cleared the delvik cache. Absolutely no luck. I'm running Android Revolution HD 82.0.

This all started maybe 2 months ago when Google came out with some update, can't remember if it was services or framework or play but I just remember my calls didn't work after that. At that time, I cleared out the caches for the above-mentioned things in settings and that fixed it completely and I haven't had any problems until maybe 2 weeks ago, where it is now seemingly unfixable using the mentioned methods. Any thoughts?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ManImCool:
Just download that zip to phone and run in recovery? Doesn't need to be running a venom ROM?

Edit: also forgot to mention, unsure if related or not, but every now and then it wont even successfully make a (no sound) call, it will just get a com.android.phone process or something like that error saying it failed, and ask if I want to restart it.

htc dev unlocking boot loader

hey guys im at my wits end here and i think its time i asked for some help before i blow my phone up. long story short i want to flash a new rom to my phone to get some more use out of it but i cant even get past the unlocking the bootloader part. ive tried using htcdev but every time i do i get

Error Code: 172.

Error Reason: CID Not Allowed (MID not exist in Model Rule)

im using windows 8.1 on a surface pro 3

my phones boot loader screen says

locked

m7_wlc pct ship s-on rh

hboot- 1.57

radio 1.13.41.0702

if theres anything you guys can help me with ive tried everything i can think of and everything ive googled but nothing works. id rather not use sunshine because the whole reason im doing this is to save a little bit of money. if there is anything i forgot to put here or anything you need let me know. thanks in advance
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
I'm gonna assume you made a couple of typos here and

m7_wlc pct ship s-on rh

Should read

m7_wlv pvt ship s-on rh

It looks like you have a Verizon HTC One, Verizon do not allow there bootloader to be Unlocked with HTCdev. Hence the reason you get this error

"Error Code: 172.

Error Reason: CID Not Allowed (MID not exist in Model Rule)"

Unfortunately your only option to Unlock your bootloader is to use Sunshine App. Sunshine will Unlock your bootloader, root the device and give you s-off all in one shot. But it does costs $25 to use it. :good:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gingerbreadman123:
Hi Danny,

I decided to do the install today, so I followed your instructions, the aroma installer started up its asking me to wipe userdata which one do I choose:

Do you want to wipe user data?

1. Install without wiping the userdata partition

Suitable for most point releases and minor upgrades. Not advised if you come from another rom or an older base.

2. Wipe my userdata partition.

User data will be removed but the virtual sd card will remain untouched

Thanks
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
If you did a factory reset in TWRP First then either option should be fine. Why, did something go wrong?

Or not as you expected?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gingerbreadman123:
Nah nothing went wrong your instructions were perfect, I chose the first option as I already did a factory reset in TWRP. The phone has started up after the reboot, just about to restore my apps :)

I think I bricked my phone...

Hi, newbie here....

Long story short, I've rooted and unlocked my phone. Now I want to let go of it but I need to factory reset my phone to wipe all my data. What I did was I encrypted my phone, then tried to factory reset it but it didn't work. So dumb ol' me thought that I have to re-lock the phone, which I did. Then I went into the recovery screen in CWM, picked wipe data/factory reset. Didn't work. So dumb ol' me went into recovery mode again, went to "mounts & storage" menu, and clicked on all the options available, except for "Go Back"..... Hence, my phone is bricked due to my stupidity.... :crying:

Can anyone help? Or is my phone beyond repair?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Can you post the output of

fastboot getvar all

Please remove your Imei and serial numbers before posting. :good:

And what is the current status of the device. Unlocked or relocked. Do you have access to a custom recovery and or the bootloader.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanzict:
erm... how do I get the output?

the device is relocked, I have access to both custom recovery & bootloader
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Boot the device to the bootloader and connect your usb cable so the device shows fastboot usb in red on the bootloader screen.

In the fastboot command window. Type the "fastboot getvar all" command then copy the output and post it here ;)

Are you sure the device isn't using the stock recovery? It should not boot a custom recovery while it's relocked.

If you have a custom Rom on there Unlocking the bootloader may get the phone booting again.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanzict:
hmmm... it seems I can't even connect it to my PC, command line shows its waiting for device, no response until now...

nope, I have stock ROM, didn't use any custom ROM, does CWM count as a custom ROM? (sorry, very n00b here...)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Ok that's good for now ;) CWM is a custom recovery. But your device is s-off which explains why it boots the custom recovery while it's relocked :good: don't worry this is all good stuff so far. Just so you know though with s-off there's never any reason for you to relock the bootloader.

Before we can get you up and running we need fastboot and adb working. In the screen shot the bootloader is in HBOOT mode. You can see this highlighted in blue just beneath the Manufacture date. Select fastboot from the bootloader menu to put the phone in fastboot mode. When you connect your usb cable fastboot mode should switch to fastboot usb. Then you should be able to issue fastboot commands to the device.

Where it says waiting for device, it's waiting for you to go into fastboot usb so try that and let me know what happens :good:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Don't worry its far from dead :) this information was really so I know what software you need to flash. So far it's all good.

First things first you should unlock your bootloader. Did you originally unlock it yourself or the device came to you unlocked?

If you unlocked it before you can just flash the Unlock_code.bin again the same as before.

If you have no idea what I'm talking about [emoji14] go to www.htcdev.com register an account and use the Unlock my bootloader section to get the Unlock_code.bin (it's free to do this)

Alternatively because your s-off you can unlock it in CWM recovery. Connect your usb cable while in CWM.

Check adb is working with

adb devices

You should get an output showing your devices serial number. If that work ok Unlock your bootloader with the following instructions.

to*UNLOCK*your bootloader,enter the following:

adb shell

su

echo -ne "HTCU" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=33796
(i would very strongly recommend you copy/paste this, you do not want to make a typo with this command)

exit
(exit a second time if you need to to get back to a normal > prompt)

adb reboot bootloader

Verify your bootloader is now unlocked :good:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanzict:
thanks... I unlocked the device myself using Hasoon's All-In-One Toolkit, so I used the first method you suggested which is flashing it using fastboot, the menu to unlock my bootloader came out, so I chose unlock bootloader, but once it restarted its stuck on the white screen again (the one with the green HTC wording and black "quietly brilliant" written)

is it supposed to still be stuck?

I've verified it to be unlocked as I restarted the phone in bootloader mode
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Yeah that's normal in this situation we still need to flash a rom to get the device booting.

http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_3-63-707-4-zip/

Download this, it's the stock Rom for your device so well start with that.

Put the zip in your fastboot folder and rename it "rom.zip"

You may be able to push it to the device with the toolkit but I don't use it so I don't know for sure so here is the manual method.

Boot to CWM and connect your usb cable. In the command window type

adb push rom.zip /sdcard

The command window will appear unresponsive until the push is complete (Several Minutes) When its done Install the Rom with your recovery. In the Aroma installer choose options

Stock Recovery = No

Stock Radio = Yes

Root = yes

When its done the device should boot as normal.

As a side note, I don't normally recommend CWM for the HTC one. TWRP 2.6.3.3 is by far the best recovery to use. So if you get problems when installing the Rom flash this recovery and try again or flash it anyway before you push the Rom for a guaranteed trouble free install.

http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img

Again put the file in your fastboot folder and use these commands to flash

fastboot flash recovery name-of-recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Then select recovery from the bootloader menu to boot TWRP Recovery :good:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faisal0000:
Can anybody help,

Here's the problem.

I can't flash anything using the recovery latest TWRP, I can't change the build prop. When I flash using TWRP it says that installing and bla... But it takes only one second to install everything and in real it ain't installed.

But aroma zips are installed. When I change the build prop using the build prop editor it is edited but when I reopen the app it is the old one like the LCD density and reboot has no effect. I'm on stock 4.4.3 using elemental x kernel latest version. Has anyone faced this kind of problem before?
