Use USB-OTG and flash a ROM using that.

If u can get to the bootloader try flashing a new recovery. fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Looks like your system partition is empty, so you'll have to install a whole rom ,an OTA won't help an empty system

Okay, do you have any rom(eg. ARHD).zip on your phone? If you do, flash that via twrp, and you're done
If you don't, copy a rom to a USB flash drive and connect it to your phone with an OTG Cable, and flash it via twrp
If you don't have an OTG cable, try this to sideload a rom to your internal sd card http://teamw.in/ADBSideload

No, i don´t have any rom in the phone...i´m now trying the last option...the sideload-thing...my other computer is very slow...so it will take while...but how i can get the phone like it was when i bought it ? So no root access and stock rom and so on ???

When your phone is in fastboot, type
fastboot devices
Does it list your phone?
If it doesn't, try changing USB ports/cord, and also try uninstalling and then fresh installing new drivers after restarting your pc, then connecting your phone.

It's definitely NOT bricked. I'll keep an eye on this thread, you're getting great help but if you don't end up getting it fixed send me a PM, I sometimes forget about a thread I need to check back in on. It's for sure fixable and there's great advice in here.
Edit I somehow missed your last post before posting this. Send me a PM, and I'll help you get it fixed up after work.

ok so fastboot is working, as suggested before post a "fastboot getvar all" (remove IMEI and s/n).
If sideload isn't working you can use "adb push", but first thing is to reflash custom recovery just in case it's corrupted.
so download CWM or TWRP (from the threads in xda), then
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery>.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> enter RECOVERY
then
adb push <name of rom>.zip /sdcard/ (this will take anywhere between 5 to 15minutes and not show progress, eventually it should come back with "success")
then
install zip in recovery, and choose the <name of rom>.zip and install it.

When you are in bootloader mode and you connect your device in the USB port, does it change to "fastboot usb"?

You should push with adb a custom ROM.zip file and flash it.
Or mount a USB stick with an OTG cable and flash it from there. But you have to flash TWRP recovery with the OTG USB method.
To push a custom ROM.zip file while you're in recovery mode (also read here):
copy the ROM.zip to the same folder where your adb/fastboot files are.
open a cmd window from that folder
type "adb push ROM.zip /sdcard"
when finished reboot to your recovery
wipe system, data and caches (DON'T wipe the sd card content)
flash your ROM
If you have problems with adb not recognizing your device try a PC with Windows 7 and USB 2 port, install HTC drivers from here and use the mini-sdk for your adb/fastboot folder.

also i would look at downloading the toolkit in android development. don't panic its definitely not bricked. if you can get adb working you can then flash recovery or rom or both

Yes it is, he was trying to prevent you from losing anything on the sd card, since the updated ROM will relocate where the sdcard storage is found.
Although I don't think it is relevant since you most likely have a wiped phone.. Seeing as there is no OS installed.

[Q] Soft bricked my HTC ONE, help plz.

Hello guys,
So i unlocked the bootloader, used TWRP recovery, made a nandroid back up, saved a copy of back up on my pc and then flash the Trickdroid rom. Every thing went smoothly till then, as the proximity sensor wasnt working, i installed the xposed framework then went into recovery and flashed the zip file for it. After the reboot, the phone hung on HTC one boot screen, i used the Vol down + power button but the phone is just not switching on in recovery or anything. Connected to my PC, gave adb reboot recovery but it says "device not found". Did the vol+power thing in light as well but didnt help.
What should i do? Please help.

I now know the mistake i did, i flashed trick droid on my one and i was coming from stock 4.1.2. Developer had mentioned that for those coming from 4.1.2, we need to first wipe, install rom, do 1 boot cycle and then wipe again, i missed the last part hence got stuck at the boot screen.
I tried adb but it didnt work, so i used fastboot reboot command and the phone came alive, after which went to recovery and restored my nandroid. What happened to your device?
Boot into bootloader by turning off device and keeping volume down pressed, and then connect your device to your pc so you see "fastboot usb" in red, and then type "fastboot erase cache" followed by "fastboot reboot"

If you dont have any nandroid backups then im afraid theres really nothing you can do besides factory reset..go into the bootloader and try reseting the phone, see if that works.
The reason your computer doesnt read your phone is normally a drivers issues. Heres what you can do to get your computer to notice your phone.
download the file from here and extract the whole FOLDER to your desktop: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1996051
1. boot into recovery
2. connect your phone to the computer
3. go to device manager, just search for it
4. In other devices, there should be something called android phone, open it, and choose update drivers
5. instead of letting the computer search for the drivers, choose the second option to choose your own
6. choose the folder, the whole folder, and your driver, and click install
Now your phone should be recognized by your computer, check by using adb devices in command. If it works, go from there, try pushing xposed disabler, or push a nandroid to your device and restore.

you should download it and use erase cache option then reinstall recovery and see if that helps but i think you will probably end up having to format sd. if you have htc sync it might be able to get some of the stuff from sd before you format

Had this same exact problem, AIO helped me , i had installed TWRP and the AIO opened recovery, then chose recovery and then tried side loading, while doing i then sideloaded the ARHD and voila am back to normal.
The problem and my question is , i flashed with bulletproof kernel and then that created all the problem. now somehow it has booted and i still have bulletproof kernel. Am scared to reboot (am a noob all over again since i bought wp) , if i flash it with a stock kernel deodexed or odexed will that create a problem? I have ARHD10.2 Stock ROM. Please advice.

1)Goto bootlader - > fastmode , and flash custom recovery again.
2) When receive custom recovery, flash rom.
3) Get S-OFF, and only when try to flash RUU, without S-OFF you can't downgrade from 2.19 to 1.28

Strange no ?
Why you need adb?
Flash recovery via fastboot.. type
1) fastboot flash recovery your_recovery_image.img
2) fastboot erase cache

Probably to push the custom rom onto the SD card in order to flash it in recovery

When he will receive working recovery with sideload support, the adb sideload command will be work fine as there will be a support interface(protocol) from recovery.
Did you relock? What error did you get? Was it the right ruu.

What does your device manager on the laptop show? Try different usb port. stay away from usb 3.0 ports to be safe. sometimes i have to unplug and replug before the phone shows..Also reboot laptop if still dont see it.

Fastboot and ADB are two very different modes.
The phone can be detected in fastboot and not be detected in dab, either due to a driver issue or bad usb cable.

I'm sorry, what do you try to explain to me? I know about these modes.
Please read carefully dialogs and why my phrase was told.
At a topic starter works fastboot, but adb doesn't work, ADB and NOT WILL fully work without OS on phone. he tries something to do with phone using adb, way in anywhere in case of its situation.

You're saying ADB won't work with no OS?
Go wipe your system and be amazed when ADB still works ;D

Okay, adb shell has nothing to do with this.
Take a look at my guide for ADB below to help you understand the push process

YES! Without OS, only one way to flash recovery - fastboot! Therefore I advise to OP to forget adb, to flash recovery.

You may have to switch recoveries to TWRP 2.6.3.3 OR 2.6.3.0, and use a windows 7 machine.

What will switching recoverys do?
Did you try "adb push rom.zip /sdcard/rom.zip" while you were on the home screen of the recovery?

Try it in recovery and also check to see if the device is being detached while in recovery by typing in "adb devices" in the command prompt.
Nope
If I use htc one toolkit while in bootloader and I fastboot I get my device show up but when I do adb I get nothing

So no adb in recovery, but fastboot working hmm. So adb devices shows nothing?
Your device is obviously being detected to have fastboot working.
Try adb kill-server to reset adb and then check if it's detectable in recovery, also make sure to mount the data.
Use a different computer if available
Make sure you don't have any tethers installed that would ruin adb like easy tether
Try downloading and reinstalling the adb universal set up drivers.
Try running a RUU if you can
Sorry if i'm not much help I'm still noobish to all this still

[Q] HTC One (M7) Bricked???

Hello. I have the following problem. I friend of mine that I've sold him my old rooted Htc One tried to make 4.4. kitkat
He tried to install
Android_Revolution_HD-One-53.0zip
BUT I don't know how he managed to stuck his phone.The problem is when I am power on the phone it shows the white HTC screen with the red letters "this build is for development purpose only..." after a while reboots in TWRP v2.5.0.0
And that's it , I cannot do anything because my PC won't recognize it via USB cable.
Any suggestions?
(excuse me for my English, with love from Greece )
As long as it boots into Recovery its not bricked. Do you have the HTC Driver installed on your computer?
Android Revolution HD 53 requires min. TWRP 2.6.3.3. Your version is too old.

From recovery go to fastboot connect phone to pc.
It must be recognized.
Then flash boot.img which is in the Revolution.zip.
Then install the rom via recovery.
Remember for unlock and not s-off users the boot.img must be flashed befor flashing a rom.zip.
Sent by myself, without help )
i am doing as you say, but it's not recognized.
I only get a message android phone, not installed properly
SAME problem (or pretty similar) here

SAME problem (or pretty similar) here, trying to instal ARHD61.1... I don't know how did I screw up this so much...
My bootloader is TAMPERED, UNLOCKED, S-On. Recovery TRWP (2.7) launches but... many things don't work.
First thing I have to mention is that I didn't forget to enable debugging before all this started (and now I can't launch android to do it).
My HTC drivers should be up-to-date, as I installed yesterday HTC sync 3.00.52...
In bootloader, if I type "fastboot devices" I get "FA34HW903605 fastboot", and "fastboot reboot.bootloader" does what it is expected to do...
In recovery, "adb push" tells me "error: device not found".
Can someone help me? If you need more details, just ask. Thanks

Let me try and I'll tell you later. I also think it's a matter of drivers, so I was downloading and re-installing it... Thank you for your help
-------------------------------------------------- UPDATE --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, I followed your steps (LET ME THANK YOU FOR MAKING THAT GUIDE) and now the device is "My HTC" as you show.
Something has changed:
If I type "adb devices" (in PC) when phone is in fastboot, the listing is void (before I got "FA34HW903605 fastboot"), and if I do the same while phone is in recovery, I get the mentioned "FA34HW903605 recovery".
In Windows7 I don't see "My HTC" as a conventional USB storage or Memory of a Camera (should it be?)
I've managed to ADB PUSH a ROM (ARHD) in recovery, but now I get an error message: "Unable to mount '/data' " and "Unable to mount internal storage " then FAILED. Now I'll try flashing a new recovery...
WOW WOW WOW!! It was enough for me, sir
1st) Solve comunnication issues as shown in FAQ #2 here
2nd) Solve TWRP recovery mount issues by:
2.a) Installing any other (clockwork) in fastboot using One All In One Kit (eaaaasy)
2.b) Formatting cache, system, data partitions
2.c) Installing TWRP again using One All In One Kit (Android Revolution REQUIRES this recovery)
2.d) Sending the ROM ('adb push your_rom.zip /sdcard/wherever_you_want_it')
2.e) Installing it from TWRP recovery.
An that was all. THANKS A LOT nkk71; without your help I still would be here trying to figure out what's broken... Thanks.

no problem, glad to be of help
remember for most 4.4 ROMs, (for m7_u/ul) TWRP 2.6.3.3 (or higher) is recommended at the moment.
though you should be good by downloading it, then checking MD5 to make sure the download isnt corrupt (that site doesnt work with download managers), then:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> enter recovery and push the rom
Thank you all for your support, but still the problem remains.
I have installed HTC Drivers and when i connect the HtcOne i can hear the USB beep from windows but i cannot open the phone like a drive.
In other words i cannot add files to the phone :crying::crying:

It wont be so easy, I'm afraid. Even if comunication issues are solved, you won't be able to copy your ROM using windows file manager, opening the phone like a conventional drive...
You have to install "ADB" in your PC (search in HTC ONE subforums, there's a lot of info about ADB pusing (=copying) ROMS) and use it to copy your ROM. One advice: while "pushing" the ROM, be patient: it takes a long time. When your ROM is "pushed", just install it in recovery and... that's it!!
I think here you have a good starting point.
