Okay thanks. My phone doesnt have a sd card slot.

What tool do I have to use first? I have pretty much no idea
Do I need Linux for that?
if you phone dont have an sd card slot then id say you in the wrong place. this is for HTC one mini 2.

no you dont need linux. Pc or MAC works. look for videos in youtube. Make sure of you r phone model as the tools i give you is for HTC One Miini 2

Ah yea its the mini 1 sorry about that..
But still other tutorials dont work for me as the fastboot commands dont work
I always get errors like :
FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))

And I cant get into Recovery mode I am kind of stuck in fastboot


I also tried fastboot erase cache
******** Did you mean to fastboot format this partition?
erasing 'cache'...
FAILED (remote: erasing error!) <--------------------------------

I also get a lot of errors like this one FAILED (remote: .....(different types))

Like i said the tools i gave you are wrong. You need to find the proper ones.
Post your question in HTC One Mini forum

If you want to restore to stock just use RUU. its easier.

NOTE-Bootloader must be locked with stock restore
yea but thats the problem fastboot oem lock doesnt lock my phone!

ok you need to start from beggining again.
What recovery you have installed?
what ROM you had before this problem?

forget what fastboot tells you and look at bootloader yourself and see if says lockeded or Reloocked tempered.
are you using original HTC usb cable?

you can either install stock recovery and relock bootloader and RUU i provided before
or find and install TWRP and use a recovery TWRP rom to restore phone.
I have the .img file what exactly am I supposed to do now? Everything I tried from tutorials didnt work because of errors that I posted before.

Check this link here where it says Going back to stock
My device is already unlocked right? So I started with :

fastboot flash recovery C:\Users\aleX\Downloads\recovery.img
target reported max download size of 800227328 bytes
sending 'recovery' (9756 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.207s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: image update error) <--------------
finished. total time: 1.363s

If I try fastboot boot:

fastboot boot C:\Users\aleX\Downloads\recovery.img
creating boot image...
creating boot image - 9994240 bytes
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 1.219s]
booting...
OKAY [ -0.000s]
finished. total time: 1.219s

Nothing happens, phone stays in "fastboot" and doesnt boot or reboot

Have try entering recovery using phone buttons?
And put the tools and img in same folder to prevent error

Phone buttons have no effect I can choose whatever I want but nothing happens it just reboots in fastboot
Then you need to flash a boot.img and a recovery.img.
Make sure you have the proper ones for your firmware

I cant boot into bootloader because "adb devices" doesnt find my phone. Or am I doing something wrong? Maybe you have time for a short teamviewer session to have a look yourself?

I didn't say boot phone.
I said install boot.img and recovery.
That's all done is fastboot

Alternatively you can send me the phone for repair.
