I first want to say, yes I understand that this is a elite forum, but I know that this forum is way more helpful then the people in the one v forums and some of the elite owners also own HTC one Vs....

OK, so I when through the unlock bootloader with htcdev.com and successfully unlocked the bootloader , but when I go into boot loader mode it is just a fuzzy screen, any help? And also is a factory reset going to fix that or brick it like it does that elite?
 
The problem is there is no recovery/boot loader......

Does fastboot see it at all? Idk if this would apply to your phone, but I know that devices based on nvidea chips have a way to reflash the nvram back onto the phone, restoring the boot loader. Other than that, if you don't have a boot loader, a recovery, and it can't be seen by adb or fast boot then you might want to prepare yourself for the possibility of getting a new device.
