Hi all

I have a HTC One (M7). Its has been rooted and was running 4.3. Tried to update to 4.4 and flashed an Android Revolution HD ROM. Not sure if it was the wrong ROM or if I wasn't S-OFF. Now i am stuck on HTC boot screen. When i try to load into recovery it flashes up for a second and then goes back to HTC boot image.

Have tried to flash a new recovery using EZtoolkit - Flashed TWRP - didnt help, still cant get in.
Also used the toolkit to erase the cache but hasnt helped.

Any suggestions??

Download: http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/m7ul//philz_touch_6.08.9-m7ul.img

Connect your phone to USB.
Go to bootloader >> fastboot mode (fastboot USB) - [power + volume down].
Code:
fastboot flash recovery philz_touch_6.08.9-m7ul.img

Do not turn off USB in phone and turn off your phone.

You go to recovery?

Yup..

Download this: http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo..._P2_release_324936_signedma8j1sa3e2o09s35.zip

Unzip. Find the firmware.zip in the unzipped content, and flash it like this:

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot

This *SHOULD* get your stock recovery back, you should be able to get back in STOCK recovery. Then, flash custom recovery, and you should be able to get back in TWRP recovery.

Then you will need to ADB push/ ADB Sideload a custom rom to your device, and get going. Stay with 4.3, until your device is booted and you have a chance to S-OFF.

Don't use toolkits.. Get used to using fastboot and adb.. Download fastboot and adb from here.. Read the guide. Once setup, from within the fastboot and adb folder, Shift*key and*right click*on the*folder. open Command window here..
Connect your phone to PC while in bootloader screen.
Make sure fastboot USB is shown on bootloader
Then type..
Fastboot devices. A seemingly random number should be shown.
If it is.. Type fastboot erase cache.

fastboot reboot

PS.. Make sure you are using TWRP 2.6.3.3.
