[Q] Bricked HTC One S

---

It started off with me rooting my phone and unlocking to bootloader to install a rom. The rom got stuck in a loop at the htc logo so i tried using the recovery in cwm to bring it back to the stock, only my sd card wasnt being found. Ive been reading random things and different parts from different situations and im not sure what ive done tbh.

So the current situation is i cant access cwm i get some weird symbol with a phone and some red symbol across it. I can access fastboot though. Ive tried the ruu thing but i get an error of it not being able to update, from what i believe its because the rom is a higher version than the ruu and ive been unable to find a higher version. The version i have is for 1.84.531.2 and what is on my phone is 1.84.6 something. Not sure where to go from here, any help is appreciated

Edit: Ive also tried flashing the stock boot.img using fastboot flash but i get a signature error or something.

Re-flash recovery, then install ROM. Then fastboot flash boot boot.IMG!

How exactly do i Re-Flash recovery? Sorry im pretty new.

Edit: I've tried reflashing using the all in one kit. It doesnt work. I get a phone icon with a red symbol with an exclamation point through it. Thats the image i get when i try to get into the recovery => imgur.com/IJEOY

Tried pressing VOL UP on the exclamation mark?

imgur.com/llVjC <= Thats the screen i got from using the volume buttons

where would i get the recovery.IMG for Clockworkmod?

Edit: Ok i think the image i sent you is me in cwm. The problem is is i cant install a rom as i have no access to the sd card, it's not mounting or whatever.

Edit Numero 2: I tried fastboot flashing a boot.img and i keep getting a message in the command prompt saying <remote: signature verify fail>.

Edit: is your Bootloader still unlocked? the RUU wouldn't work with it being unlocked anyway...it would have failed somewhere

Try flashing TWRP-2.2.2.0 , the mount option worked of me when the CWM did not.

I relocked the bootloader. Well at least it says Relocked on that screen (not quite sure the name of the screen, its the one that pops up when you hold the down volume button when its booting up)

Shouldn't you have re "unlocked" your Bootloader before trying to flash the recovery image
