Brick as in "real brick" with no lights coming on and usb just reporting qh_usb or something like that?

Tecardo can unbrick the M7 with a riff jtag box we originally got for the HTC OneS, the thing is just, it's about impossible to disassemble the M7 without damaging parts that will need replacement, so there is no cheap way to unbrick.

Yes sir. Hboot got corrupted and no charge light. No response whatsoever.
Can you guys hit me up in pm and give me info? Pricing and such.
This may just be something I want to do.
Thank you for the response my friend. :)

@Tecardo and and me are still in touch, however, he is pretty occupied these days and I'm unsure about this thing, if he can currently do it. He did commit himself to the community back then because the community paid the box. So he will do it but you might have to live with wait times. Best thing is you hit him up on PM. Not much sense letting that go via myself. We live about 600k away from each other, he does the tech stuff.

It might be a good idea to try and get a quote from HTC to see how much they charge. They WILL replace the mainboard though, which about equals a new phone.

Also look on eBay - some dudes do jtag service there too.

Thanks again bro.
I will take it in and see if they will replace it without the high deductible first.
If not I will see what other options I have.
Still have a device but would like to get back on the ONE.

To those that want hboot plugins made I will do my best to find the time to make them but due to work commitments [new job :)] I now struggle to find time for xda again but I have a couple days off this week so maybe I can get some done for the end of the week but no promises

Can you add the Sprint One (M8) to the HTC_DEVICE enum list? M8WHL. Thanks!

EDIT: I used your source and compiled the Bootloader Customizer with M8WHL added so I could complete the plugin, but I assume unless everyone is using the version I built that the data won't load properly, correct?

EDIT 2: Also, you might want to have the dev text filled in with spaces (20) rather than with 00, as the latter can cause issues on newer devices. Spaces are safer.

Since I know there are some Sprint M8 users waiting for this, I'm going to upload it here.

The attached zip includes the version of the Bootloader Customizer that I compiled with M8WHL added to the enum so that the plugin gets picked up. Also included are plugins for the latest M8WHL HBOOTs (3.16.0.0000) packaged with the Sprint M8 and M8 Harman Kardon Edition. For whichever device you have, delete the other plugin (they both show up the same in the app, so only one can be used).

All credit goes to @regaw_leinad of course, for his tool and great instructions. All I did was compile it.

I appreciate that, Captain. Sorry I haven't been around much, guys. I'm now a software developer that works on the Minecraft multiplayer server, and I don't have a heck of a lot of time for stuff outside of it lol. As captain pointed out, the source for the bootloader customizer and the plugin are on my Github, so if you want to send a pull request w/ the new values, I will accept them into the project! Looking back at my code, I can't believe it works lol. I've become such a better developer over the years, but re-sparked my passion for it here on XDA years ago.

I'm looking back (in my mind) at your code from a few years ago. I was an android noob, but your HeroC root guide made it easy for a beginner to learn about adb and actually understand what the commands were doing to the device. Later, you released a "one click" type program (while on a cruise, if I recall). So we both moved on to new devices, and I've seen your name on the forums a few times, but this is the first time that I will use your work since the HeroC days.

Tl;dr: Thanks for your contributions to the community

Updated this based on the latest HBOOTs from the OTAs just released for the Sprint M8s, and updated Bootloader Customizer to reflect new version. Nothing big, but I figured I may as well.

Thanks for saving me from hex-editing it manually, as you always do. The stock look-alike version is looking perfect.

New plugin for latest HBOOT version for Sprint M8 (3.18.0.0000). Included the app in the zip as well, as I have previously. I only did one plugin this time to save space (I doubt anyone will notice if the build date is slightly off). It should work on both the "regular" and Harman Kardon versions.

Any issues, let me know.
