I've entered bootloader accidentally on my HTC 1 & I'm not to sure how to exit safely

Options
Hi,


My HTC One (M7) froze on me earlier and I played about pressing a combination of the power and volume buttons to see if that could get it going again. I ended up on a white screen I haven't seen before with three of the android guys on skateboards at the bottom (after a bit of research I think it's the bootloader screen).


I know very little about the technical side of android and after reading through loads of other forum posts I'm non the wiser about how to exit this safely without changing any settings or losing data (pictures, music etc.).


The options are:


Fastboot
Recovery
Factory Reset
Simlock
Check smart SD
Image CRC
Show barcode


Like I said, I'm only a very basic user, so just want to get back to normal!


Hope someone out there can help!

  • I would hold the power button until it restarts normally. I don't use that device but that's what I would do on my phone. Is there definitely not a "Start" option?
    Just to add, if you enter recovery there should be a reboot system option.
  • Just restart the phone
    Understeer is when you hit a wall with the front of your car
    Oversteer is when you hit a wall with the back of your car
    Horsepower is how fast your car hits the wall
    Torque is how far your car sends the wall across the field once you've hit it

    Pick Fastboot, then in the next menu you can pick reboot.
  • I'm sure we'd all like to know if you got it working OP.
