Hi all,

First, i would like to apologize for my poor english.
Then, i have some problems with my HTC M7.

Yesterday, when i woke up, my phone was shut down. I thought that i had no battery anymore. (i had less than 10% when i went to bed so, it's possible).
Well, plug my phone in the charger, and wait... and, when he booted, i could not use my phone as usually: no PIN code, no ability to make phone call... After a few minutes, i saw that the IMEI zone was empty.

I was not worrying, and though that a simple cache cleearing could help me... Well, it was not... :(

Now, i'm not able to use my phone AT ALL.

He's rooted, S-OFF, and i tried to install 3 or 4 different roms but same problem.
The ROM install has some difficulties to be finished: in fact, on each rom i tried to install, i have now the same problem;
-> No IMEI
-> When i want to compose a phone number, the dialer does not appear
-> A message "com.htc.htcdialer isn't responding" appears every minute...

I tried to install another dialer, same problem...

I'm really lost.

hope that somebody could help me?

Regards,

Cyril

PS: For information, after the incident, my phone was not rooted anymore and was S-ON, i don't know if it was already the case before the incident...

This is a firmware problem. It seems your firmware has corrupted.Best way is download a RUU for ur phone and just flash it.K ur s-on>can u get me a getvar all.

access ur bootloader select fastboot and then type " fastboot getvar all " without quotes.

Done for IMEI and Serial NO, thx.
I've started to download it.

just a quick note, he's s-off, personally I would go with a 1.xx ruu (except 1.20.xxx.x)

Ok, so have i to switch on s-on?

Also, have i stay on unlocked mode?

Thanks guys, really.

Guys,

I tried to install the RUU but it failed:

Update from 3.62.1700.1 to 4.19.401.9, i click on next, then next, then a message (in french so i translate to you):
The update tool cannot update the android phone,
Please obtain the right update tool and try again.

Then, i can only click on ReadMe or Recovery, but nothing relevant after that.

Nooooo, do not go s-on!!

Ok, i haven't done that, thanks ^^
So, now i'm stucked, i don't know what to do. Try another ruu?

I'm actually downloading RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7_Radio_4A.13.3231.27_10.31.1131.05_release_310878_signed.exe, is it ok?

What do you mean, can't update... you mean the ruu isn't working?

if so, then get this one: ruu_m7ul_1.28.401.7.zip
AFH mirror: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407584993


then (after making sure MD5 is correct), rename the file to ruu.zip, and:

In bootloader/FASTBOOT USB, flash it:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
<- yes TWICE, the first one will report “failed flush again”, the second one will succeed.
fastboot reboot-bootloader


there is no need to relock bootloader or anything else with S-OFF (and stay S-OFF, don't even think about S-On!!)


if you want to see what kind of output to expect, check my guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=47794257&postcount=8 (post 8) which has a some visual feedback of what to expect. (disregard the guide, i'm just linking it for you to get an idea of what kind of output to expect)

Oh and you cannot do this on Win 8.1!!! http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52135024&postcount=2 FAQ#1

Yep, all is functional again... thanks again !

:good: :good: :cowboy: my pleasure.

BTW, if you going for 4.4 ROMs, use TWRP: 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)

2.7.0.4b: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2708134


in bootloader/FASTBOOT USB:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader



PS: for future reference about s-off vs s-on, check here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52135024&postcount=2 (under Not so FAQ #2)
