HTC 802w - total breakdown

Hi - thanks for your post. Very helpful.

I have tried your procedure to get my HTC 802w from China Unicom back to life after I treated it badly by mistake. I bought it yesterday and then thought I am clever trying to flash Android_Revolution_HD-One_10.2.zip on this phone. That ended up with this phone hanging in a boot loop in unlocked mode and only ending up on the fastboot screen in locked mode. Since I tried your method I at least get back into revovery - phew, good!. I can also install SUperuser and the Google Package which came with the link you provided. When I reboot I am ending up in my boot loop though. - but by holding the Volume down pressed I at least can get back when ever I want to recovery boot. That works fine. I noticed that in Recovery I cannot mount my internal SDcard. Not sure that means anything. I get the impression I need to do the equivalent of format C: and install everything new. Do you have a Tipp for me where to go from here?

PS: I downloaded 5-7_htc_one_802w_kingwolf_v2_root_life.zip since 7_htc_one_802w_kingwolf_v2_root_life.zip was not available anywhere anymore. It does not work.

PPS: I do not even know where I am with this phone now. Is it screwed beyond repair or does being able to enter the recovery mode mean there is hope?

Regards - Mathias

Thanks for your fast reply! I am unfortunately new to this Android world. So I am reading here the whole day but don't get forward really.

I have tried the procedure posted here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=41363733 to get my HTC 802w from China Unicom back to life. Not much success - but...
