No more put your device for paperweight any more ( I've been made my device for paperweight a month, until I found this solution ,and I made it with no cost for replaced main board)


This is important to flash ROM with out RUU Stock and S-OFF


After all you can use Romrunner to S-OFF
(It's 100% worked for me)



Finally I can make my HTC One Mini to S-OFF
and able use nay tools to turn back to Locked again

uhhh... not sure about this mate. There is no TWRP 2.7.0.5 for this model, then I don't believe you can mount USG OTG with TWRP.

Did you test this mytohn ?

Plus do you have any un-rooted rom ?

Thanks

Could you please link the ROM download? Link in first post direct to TWRP, not to ROM file

Thanks

Nevermind now, found image else where, in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2665746 used odex image.

Used your method mate and it WORKED !!! Got the usb cable from my tablet - nothing else worked, even adb push (for some reason phone just switched itself off)

Now fully working, thanks again

Hi, can you be more specifict on the flash process.

So you flash the ROM from USB GTO.
Then wipe cache/dalvid cache
Then flash boot.img

Also, is that normal that when right after i flashed the rom, and shutdown the phone, its say no OS installed?

Hey, can you re upload the ROM and what HBOOT do you need, will it work on 2.21?
Thanks
The link for the rom is halfway down the first page of this post' no need to upload it, it don't matter what hboot your on as the link to OP has link for rom for hboot pre 2.22 and another member has put up links for a modded version on the last pages of OP for hboot 2.22 and above. just make sure you download a twrp recovery that supports your partition layout (your hboot will give you and idea) I gather you have an OTG cable or a dual flash drive USB.
Everything and every answer you need is in these forms...you just have to read! That's how I managed to give yo this answer in under 10min of searching.

Hi there,

I got a HTC One mini. I bought an USB OTG and installed TWRP v2.7.1.2. I can see the USB OTG under "Mount" but I can't mount it. "adb sideload file-name.zip" is also not working.

Please advice.

Thanks.

Format the USB flash drive in FAT32.

What may be?
FATAL: Download updated package at www.rumrunner.us
There are problems on the server, so many now

Hello to everybody!
All these things are OK:
1. Unlock device with Unlock Bootloader
2. Download ROM and Copy to Flash Drive
3. Flash recovery TWRP 2.7.0.5
But when I try flashing ROM "m4kk_4.4.2_3.10.401.4_root-odex.zip" from "Install" I get what you can see in attacked image.
Flashing lasts only three seconds. When I reboot, I get loop booting.
What I can do?
Thank for all

Help!

Hello, I have an htc one mini in state like the one in the picture (first post) stuck in bootloader (tampered, unlocked, s-on).
The only difference is that ''OS-'' section is empty!!!
I've flashed this recovery: twrp-2.7.0.5-m4kk.img using adb and then flashed this rom: m4kk_4.4.2_3.10.401.4_root-odex.zip as it is mentioned.
Everything went well and phone started in 4.4.2! Almost everything... Once I had opened the data (3g/4g) everything messed up (lag lag lag)!
I've tried to reboot via power button and after restart I stuck again to bootloader.
I've decided to flash the rom once again. This decision was harsh...
Flashing procedure never completed succesfully (interrupted by reboot) and from then till now in recovery mode the touch screen is not responding, the touch buttons neither!
So, I cannot flash nothing!
Please help me! Thanks in advance!
