I have a problem...

I went to update my HTC One M7 to the newest InsertCoin update however I downloaded the wrong rom, downloading the rom for the HTC DNA instead. After an unsuccessful install, the phone would not boot after a wipe or anything, and atm boots straight into the boot loader. I have been unable to side load any file onto the phone and so far S-off attempts have been unsuccessful. Any help would be appreciated.

if you have an m7_u or m7_ul - check your fastboot getvar all - try to reflash custom recovery: get TWRP from:
2.6.3.3: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
or 2.6.3.4: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7ul
(make sure MD5 is correct, that site does not play nice with download managers)

fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader


then try getting to recovery, if it bootloops back to bootloader, then you have a serious problem :(

I am able to get into recovery as I already have ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.4.6 flashed, by can switch to TWRP if it is better? I'm just not sure of what steps to take as I can't load a stock rom on the internal storage (computer isn't recognising device but fast boot is) and I can't take it back to my provider as the boot loader has a tampered warning...

you can transfer a rom to your device using adb from twrp recovery. ADB sideload or adb push method.

@nkk71 congrat for your new title :good:

edit: If you have an usb otg cable you can also copy your rom to a usb drive and mount it from twrp

if adb devices doesn't show anything check FAQ #2 in my guide to fix drivers (disregard the rest)
