[Solved]Need help with TWRP - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I have several international HTC m7s (HTC 802w) at work and I'm trying to flash TWRP on these devices. All of them are at least S-off and some unlocked. This one particular device I'm trying to flash is both s-off and unlocked (but these weren't done by me). Interesting thing is, the twrp flashes normally in fastboot, but when I reboot into recovery, there is black screen only. If I attach usb in this state, computer detects MTP device and I can browse the phone contents and when I run adb devices, it says the device is in recovery. Does this mean twrp is flashed but can't correctly boot into it? What can I do to successfully boot into it?
My HBoot is 2.49 and CID is 11111111.
Edit: Another "interesting" bit. When I open back cover, it indeed says HTC 802w, but installed system is 802t.

Are you sure your twrp img is the one for the 802 model? Because the versions you'll find linked everywhere in this forum section is for the 801 model (the single sim variant).
The dual sim twrp versions are there:

Someone probably converted this phone from w to t. You can dump the mfg partition to look at the original MID/CID if you really want to know what it was when it shipped from the factory.

Damn, so that's where I was messing up. I even read getvar multiple times, but somehow didn't pay attention that codename is cdtu. And no, I'm not interested what was shipped from factory, I just thought it had something to do with not being able to boot into twrp.

Another question then. What roms can I flash on cdtu? I have tried AICP from M7 forum, but it ended with error 7.
Edit: Can you tell me how to convert it back to 802w?

GSM rom on CDMA phone (aka how do I unscrew my phone)

Hi there,
Yesterday I bought a Japanese HTC ONE (HTC J one, HTL22, M7-WLJ, Provider is AU-KDDI, it has a simcard).
As it was full of bloatware I S-offed using revolutionary (htcdev isnt allowed by AU) and flashed a recovery. Then I proceeded to flash Viper One. I asked in the thread if it would work and the answer was as long as it's not a dual sim device you should probably be fine.
So I flashed and ended up with a bootloop. No big deal as I backed up my original rom. I turned off my phone as it was pretty late already. When I turned my phone back on again it wouldn't boot into recovery anymore, it would just say entering recovery and then reboot. I tried reflashing the recovery again but it still just reboots when entering recovery.
So I asked in the TWRP thread what to do. "flash a RUU". Now the problem is that I can't a RUU.exe for this model.
Long story short, how do I get my phone working again? I assume I can't just flash a WWE asia version? From what I can gather the hardware still supports GSM networks.. so maybe it doesnt matter? I suppose if the hardware supports both networks it's just a matter of the correct settings/drivers being available in a rom?

Look up hasoon2000 on bing and click the second link (should be a dev-host site)
Navigate to the One folder.
Download and extract the One all in one toolkit version 3.1
Put your phone in fastboot mode (Power and volume down button, should say "FASTBOOT USB" in red.
Try reflashing TWRP from toolkit to see if it works.

You can't flash a bootloader that is not intended for your phone variant, you will brick it. But wait, you are talking about TWRP which is not the bootloader, its the recovery. You can't neither flash a recovery that is not intended for your phone variant!! Recovery and bootloader version have absolutely nothing to do with the message you got about your sim card.

Stop flashing things that are not intended for your M7VZW !!! You will end up messing your partitions. Go read the forums or ask here before doing thing you don't understand.
There also a specific forum for the Verizon Htc one here, you could probably find more precise information for your phone variant.

You are right, my mistake - I mean recovery flash
I was using HTC HD2 on several androids builds before so I get to use with partition mess
All I neet is to get rid of verizon from my toy. Do you think that flashing fimware, radio etc could help ? Something like described here for m7vzw phones http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46506621 but for m7.

[Solved]Urgent help please!

It is solved! For the answer look at my post below
Hello guys,
phone HTC one M8 Harman Kardon Edition
Happens that in my urge to unlock my phone sim lock I firstly changed the MID to unlocked SIM Dev edition MID and CID to SuperCID, well that went great until I was dumb enough to try to flash a Dev edition RUU to the phone and then i lost my TWRP recovery and everything went haywire. cause now i try to flash Recovery through fastboot and it suceeds but the phone gets stuck in entering recovery, Im not able to flash a Sprint RUU for HK because 1. i havent found one and 2. it probably wont load because of the MID which is 0P6B1200 if im correct.
please help me either load the Custom recovery so i can have access to adb, or any other way to fix it.
thank you!!
if someone could please give me any ideas, or contact anyone who could help me, it would be greatly apreciated, i can pay up to 20 usd through paypal if anyone can help me!!!
Change your MID back to Sprint and run the Sprint HK RUU...should be good to go.
Nevermind.. As long as you see hboot menu and capable to select different options you are safe and in healthy state.. Even if you want to brk things.. You won't be able to brk.. Just flash twrp 2.8 again using fastboot commands.. You should back on track...
thank you but no

I dont know what is going on but i did that already, even trying the new recovery image, and it gets stuck in the Entering Recovery... step
"Fastboot erase cache" and make sure you are flashing the correct version of twrp(change the MID back to the original one, this is dangerous if there is hardware difference across the 2 MIDs)
Guys all off your help was greatly apreciated but there was something wrong
Ok guys so I was able to fix it.
Although it looked like it was easy to flash the twrp recovery, remember I ran the ATT RUU so the hboot was wrong according to the phone. This means it wouldnt flash the recovery correctly, however something strange happened when i tryed to entered recovery after flashing, it would connect to the computer. When that happened the only thing i thought was that twrp has adb interface, so i instantly checked devices and proceeded to change back the MID. Once that was through i flashed Android 4.4.2 Sprint RUU non HK since the HK was giving unlock issues, then, pasted the Modded HtcOMADM_SPCS.apk and did the
Su am start com.redbend.vdmc/com.htc.omadm.test.TestMainActivity
Then clicked on sim lock
(You must be rooted and check for the moded file in the sim unlock thread on the general section)
And now i was fully funcional and GSM unlocked outside US.
I proceeded then by flashing HK lollipop RUU and then i was back on track.

Sprint HTC One stuck on logo, tried almost everything but to no avail

Hello,
I am new to xda forum and expecting a helping hand from fellow members, here's the scenario, I have a sprint htc one which was working fine a few days ago before i decided to act smart .
It was rooted when i purchased it so i thought of flashing a new custom rom into it.I tried flashing (HTC_One_-_MaximusHD_53.0.0) and this one (NuSenSeveN-LP-m7-Sprint_v4.02_050715) and ended up being stuck at green HTC logo, even though the physical buttons are performing their respective functions when pressed but the screen shows just the htc one logo and nothing else.
It is unlocked, tampered and s-on and i have twrp recovery on board, hboot 1.57.0000
WHAT I HAVE ALREADY TRIED AND FAILED:
1) tried rum runner to turn s-off because i though may b because of s-on the roms are not being flashed properly but it says adb device not found
2) tried flashing Bad_Boyz_Sprint_ONE_M7_Lollipop_v2.0 but stuck at handsfree activation, even though i deleted htcwizard.apk.
Now the bottom line is, I am unable to use my device and in desperate need of your help.
Please respond, awaiting to put my hand back on the device.
Thank You
Flashing MaximusHD_53.0.0 messed up your partitions (it's not Sprint compatible as far as I know) and NuSenSeveN you have to fastboot flash the kernel separately ( I had the same problem lol)
The easiest fix would be to run the latest RUU and start fresh, then only flash roms that are Sprint compatible.

Hey thanks for the response, I am not tech geek so I have no idea how to flash the latest RUU can you please be more specific about how to perform the above mentioned process or can you have a chat on hangouts as I have altready added you on it.
Thanks alot
Try to flash ruu which could be found on other posts do u know how to boot into the bootloader?
problem solved
Update: thanks to @Sloth I have fixed the problem, if anyone out there who owns a sprint htc one and have messed up his phone by flashing an incompatible rom the way i did, first relock your bootloader if you are s-on and then simply download RUU file from htc official website, make sure its for sprint variant.
Once the bootloader is relocked simply run ruu.exe file that you have downloaded and you are done.
Note: if the ruu setup says that you phone is not connected or gets stuck, boot into recovery and perform factory, after that re-try running ruu.
Thanks Sloth, and thanks xda members

[HELP]: Sprint M8 bricked

Just purchased a second hand HTC One (M8).
Turned out to be a CDMA variant, bootloader shows M8_WHL, which is the Sprint variant.
When I got the device, it had a locked bootloader but was S-OFF with SuperCID (11111111) and running stock ROM.
I rooted it, by unlocking the bootloader and flashing TWRP.
After this, I handed it over to my friend, whom I forgot to tell that it was a CDMA variant, so he treated it as a GSM one.
He didn't notice the M8_WHL part and changed the MID to 0P6B1000 and left the CID as is, downloaded 6.12.401.1 (which is the MM ROM for International M8), flashed the RUU.zip and tried to boot the phone.
Phone will not boot now, if one types the reboot command, it just goes back to Bootloader.
TWRP can not be used correctly since it shows Internal Storage as 0MB, which I think is a bad sign.
So he gave it back to me, I downloaded a Sprint RUU (exe) from the HTC website, didn't detect the device so didn't flash it. I tried copying the ROM.zip from the exe RUU but it turned out to be corrupt.
I downloaded the RUU zip from XDA, also turned out to be corrupt, when attempting to flash it through htc_fastboot, it shows an error:
"remote project does not have sa key to decrypt ROM"
Is the phone bricked, or is there any way I can get it going again?
Please help!
Thanks!
