Hello!
I have a HTC One X (EU-version), and it's unlocked.
I used to have Android Revolution HD ROM installed, and would try a new kernel. So I downloaded the new faux kernel (faux_004b5_arhd_7.0.0_modified.img)
Somehow it didn't work, and my phone keep restarting. So I go to the recovery mode, and tried to reinstall the ROM, without whip.
After that I made a reboot, my phone keep reboot. Now I can't go to the recovery mode, either can I flash my device.
I really don't know what to do now.
I hope someone can help, and I posted in the right section.

I had that problem before too. If the "hold power button for 10 seconds then press volume down and power buttons simultaneously" doesn't work, download Quick Boot from playstore and it would allow you to choose to either Reboot, boot to recovery, or the bootloader
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
trick is to run 'adb reboot bootloader' or 'adb reboot recovery'.

When I hold the power button and volume down for 10 secounds, I come to the fastboot menu.
How can I download Quick Boot, when I don't have acces to my memory. I can't see what I have on my memorycard (obs. because I can't go to the recovery part), either can't connect to the computer, since I'm in a bootloop.
I'm afraid while I was doing this stuff, my battery was low. But it didn't die under the process.
Tyvm for the reply, but I can't install the quick boot.

Can you please explain more?
My Skype is: Dichatz, if a awesome soul could help me there, it would be the greatest thing ever. I'm afraid of that my HTC One X has seen the daylight for the last time
Ty both for the reply.
EDIT: I followed my friends advise, and tried to erase fastboot cache, which seems not able do to. I just getting the message: < waiting for device >.
Dear God, what have I done with my phone!
Dear OP, I believe there is a solution. This situation has occurred with my device more than once. I too believed I had lost it until it resolved itself. There are several things you can do to ensure it works again. I wiped the ROM on my phone before the problem began, so I was stuck with a dead phone until I found a way to get recovery to work again. If it's possible, enter Fastboot and install a new kernel onto it, and THEN use fastboot erase cache. If that is not a viable option, make sure the USB wire is not plugged in when the device boots. By this I mean holding down the lower volume button and initializing the menu that allows you to select Fastboot, Recovery, Factory Reset and other command options. Once the device boots into the menu, you may then plug in the cable and enter Fastboot mode. If none of the above work, let the battery deplete itself until device turns off. Once you have done that, plug it into the wall charger, and then volume down and power up. If the device says something like "reading SD card", disconnect the USB and the menu will fully load. That is when you select Fastboot. Keep the device on, plug it into the pc and send your kernel commands to your device. Ensure that you also erase the cache via Fastboot. Your device should now be fully operational. I hope I was able to help.
Have found myself in a similar position, all the following assumes you're using windows as you desktop OS...
To double check your recovery is broken, get into fastboot mode (power on while holding volume down), use volume down to highlight "hboot" then press the power button to select. Then press volume down to highlight "recovery" and press power button to select. If that works, then recovery is fine, just go ahead as you normally would to recover the system.
If you can't get into recovery then you have a slight problem.
Since you can get the device into fastboot mode, the priority is to get it to talk to your PC. Get the device into fastboot (power on while holding the volume down button). Once you're into fastboot, plug in the USB cable and verify the connection to your device using the following command :
Code:
fastboot devices
This should show you a single entry for your device. If it doesn't show anything, then unplug the device, download the naked driver pack (available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161769) and unpack it into a sensible location. Plug the device back in, if it can't install software automatically or nothing appears you may have to use device manager to update the driver for the device. Find its entry in the device tree (it will probably be listed as an unknown device), RMB on its entry in device tree then select "Update Driver Software..." from the menu that appears, tell it to search automatically then point it at the location where you unpacked the naked driver pack. That should sort out any misconceptions windows has about not being able to talk to the phone.
Once you have fastboot access, you can reflash clockworkmod. You can obtain the latest version here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594819
flash from fastboot using the command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
Once flashed, unplug the usb cable.
Use the volume up and down to highlight "hboot" on the fastboot menu, then press the power button to select. Once in the hboot menu, scroll to the "recovery" menu item and press power again to select. You should find yourself in familiar territory at this point.
hth
EDIT : Sorry, it's nearly 2am here, I'm very tired and I've just re-read your initial post. If you've flashed a custom kernel then you MUST have fastboot access (or it's subsequently broken). Download your ROM (if you haven't already got a copy on your PC) and extract boot.img from it. Get into fastboot mode (vol down + power on) and plug into your PC. Do the following :
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
Unplug USB cable, use vol up/ down to highlight "REBOOT" then press power to select.If you get stuck in a bootloop, you can try going into recovery via fastboot (select "hboot" from the fastboot menu then "recovery" from the hboot menu), then select "erase cache", then go to "advanced" and "wipe dalvik cache". Then go back and reboot the device. See if that helps. If not, then go back to recovery using the aforementioned method and re-install your rom, then erase cache and wipe dalvik cache.
Thanks for replies.

Yes, I was dumb, started at low battery level, even tho, everywhere says: Make sure you have more than 70 %.
I can't wipe, or install anything, since it's recovery mode that doesn't work
Atm., I charge my phone, because I need to have 10 %, I use "Stuck in fastboot with low battery. Use this BATCH file!" guide. So far it works.

Thank you very much for your answer!!! I read this this guide: 9/6 Mandatory Update Official Clockworkmod Touch Recovery 5.8.4.0.
If that doesn't work, I will take closer look at your reply. No matter what, thank you very very very very much. I'm sure that reply will help some soul outthere (if not me, if it fail).
Thank you guys. You are the best. I will be right back here if I find a solution!
Tip: try 'Quick Boot' available on Google Playstore, it's a payed app but
it let you go straight into recovery mode.

Hey, I am having similar problem with my htc one x here. I did some stupid stuff, tried to install jelly bean and now my device is broken.,
So the thing is, phone is stuck at HTC logo, I cant access recovery mode. And my phone now says tempered and relocked at the top so I cant get it fixed with my carrier which is rogers.
I tried installing RUU for rogers but it says image error and wrong ruu. I can't find the right one and trust me i've searched everywhere.
I can connect my phone to computer and see fastboot usb. But other than that I can't do anything with it.
I tried flashing cwm but it says failed. I'll attach image here with it.
If there is any way to fix it, please help, I just bought this device and I love it, dont wanna lose it.
Also, I read that I can add custom recovery to the phone but without recovery menu I can't do that either.
Thanks!

Hi Guys,
I tried putting in a new ROM for my HTC ONE X International (HBOOT 1.33) and this problem came up.
1. Phone is stuck in bootloop. Whenever I try to turn it off, it automatically reboots
2. Battery drain because of bootloop, doesn't charge.
3. I can enter HBOOT but encounters the following issue
- Trying to enter recovery leads to rebooting and continuing the bootloop
- Trying to factory reset leads to rebooting and continuing the bootloop
4. Computer cannot detect the device since it never goes past the HTC load screen
I really appreciate any help you guys can provide.
Thank you
Did you flash the boot.img? You need to do it through fastboot: fastboot flash boot boot.img
Do a "fastboot erase cache" afterwards.
Also, which ROM were you flashing?
Sent from my One X
What recovery are you using? Try to flash the latest CWM from here http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
it lets you charge when in recovery.
In order to flash it I had to have fastboot open and ready in the command window with the command to flash already typed in, then it was just a matter of timing->as soon as you go from Hboot to fastboot press enter.
Once you have access to the recovery you should be able to confirm your Hboot version and workout what needs to be done from there (ie flash the appropriate boot.img, or recovery from nandroid backup, run an RUU, or who knows what).

I was flashing OrDroidX 1.3.2. How can I flashboot if my device isn't recognized by my computer when I plug it in? (Sorry it's my first time) Also, my battery doesn't seem to be charging when it's off.
You need to be in fastboot mode. It should say fastboot in your bootloader menu, select it using hardware buttons. On the scree you should see
FASTBOOT USB
Then fastboot should work OK.
Check connection by doing
Code:
fastboot devices
If your battery voltage is really low, check out this script. It will start rebooting the phone and eventually battery will charge.

How do I do this if my computer won't recognize the phone when I plug it into my computer? Thanks
I was trying to look what was installed on a friend's HTC Desire, so I used "adb reboot bootloader", and only used "fastboot devices" to make sure it sees the smartphone. I left it connected for some time while I was looking for some things related to installing a custom firmware and it got hot. I have a HTC Hero and I had it gone hotter and nothing happened, but after I restarted this HTC Desire it kept restarting continously after it played the HTC animation. I can still get into the bootloader/recovery, but that's kind about it, nothing more. Should I just wait for it to cool down, or I might just bricked it?
<<Update>>
It's been more than 8 hours and the smartphone still does this. The thing is the volume buttons are broken, I only have fastboot control over it. The only solution that came to my mind was to flash it with a Touch ROM, but I can't find a fastboot command to restart directly into recovery, I can only get into the bootloader/fastboot. Does anybody have an idea on how to get directly to recovery from fastboot?
Well, in fasboot you select "bootloader", then recovery.

Download the 4ext recovery.img on your PC. Then boot the phone into fastboot and run the following command:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
It worked, now the phone it's fully functional (except the volume buttons of course) .
I used the following steps:
1. fastboot boot recovery.img
2. wipe both types of data
3. went to advanced menu and used the other type of wipe (dalvanic or something).
Thanks .

1. What phone model? What version of firmware 5.0.2 or 6.0.1?
Yes, same this with me. 6.0. I tried reset, but reset is not working. So I unlocked device , installed twrp, but twrp sometimes starts and only for few seconds. Mostly phone is either stuck in logo, or just shuts down after boot vibration. No luck in recovery. My phone crashed suddenly and got into this situation.

You have to register.
For Windows: Install HTC drivers, HTC Sync Manager(optional), fastboot, adb.
For linux: Install android-tools
Put phone into Hboot -> Fastboot.
Connect to PC and from cmd/terminal you have to execute commands as told by HTC site.
> fastboot oem get_identifier_token
This will give you a string , copy paste from '<<Identifier Token start>>' to '<<Token End>>' , only this column, no prefix.
Paste this into website. There will be text box while following steps.
You will get a file in email attachment. It will be something like this 'Unlock_code.bin'
And also the link to further steps will be provided.
> fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
You will get option on phone screen. 'Yes' 'No'. Use volume button and select Yes.
and its done.
It hardly takes a minute

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes it happens sometimes.
Make sure the recovery step was complete. For win: The .exe cmd should exit on clicking enter or automatic, till then don't remove the phone.
Try some combinations:
- turn phone OFF from Hboot then start recovery
- if screen shows 'entering recovery' let it be , wait for reboot or shutdown
- try alternative options of 'reset' and 'recovery' both will get you to twrp
- remove sdcard then try
- check charging
- don't try if overheating, let the phone be in normal temperature.
I had similar problem, but trying combos started twrp.
The mistake I did was to wipe everything. Don't do that, try to wipe cache, the first default option provided by twrp and start phone. (no sdcard/sim)
I was able to install Tomal's Discovery ROM but after some time phone again rebooted and stuck in loop.
For any restore/flash use internal memory. SDcard failed to work for me ( i tried many different sdcards).
