[Q] Need help may have bricked my one X

So I am totally lost. Have exhausted all my knowledge on these issues, but i will take u guys through my process step by step.
Right now my problem is that i am unable to charge my one x in any way. it will only respond to being connected through my pc and obviously that wont charge very well. My phone will boot to the home screen but will go from being 35% charged to 0% and just reboot. what lead up to this was my installing android revolution 1.2.2 along with the interim clockwork mod. Upon reboot is where all the problems began. I accidently forgot to wipe before installing and now this is where im at. Cant boot into recovery. cant load default recovery because battery is too low. nothing except this impossible battery screw up is all i get. and now oncve i unplug my phone from pc, its shuts down after a few moments with no charge. Im at my wits end guys. anyone know what i can do?

These threads may help:

I assume you were on 1.19 software? This happened to a friend yesterday. He ended up fastboot erase cache. Fast boot reboot bootloader. Get into recovery and plug up to ac power. The light comes on for a min. Or so then goes off. When it goes off unplugg it then plug it back in. Keep this up till you have some juice. Then fastboot flash the stock recovery relock bootloader, then get ruu 1.26.707. Run that ruu and it should boot. After that you can flash all the roms you want.

Thanks so much, I will try and let u guys know what is going on. FYI i dont see a fastboot erase cache on my screen so how would i go about doing that?

So i locked my oem back before i could boot stock revocery and stock ruu. anyone know how i would ebable to unlock my oem. ADB doesnt appear to re open it with the unlock command. i get a command error message. And yes the bin file from htc is in the fastboot folder. smh

I cant get a charge and the fastboot wont let me unlock oem or load a new recovery.... what now?

cmon guys, i spent 10 hours trying to fix this yesterday, im close to just chucking this thing into the garbage and going back to my nexus. someone please give a little help. i cant charge the phone so i cant load any stock RUU. fastboot is pretty much useless right now. nothing seems to do anything other than show a list of commands when i try to unlock oem again. im desperate so someone please help

I don't know what to tell you bro. If you locked the bootloader before putting stock recovery back on the phone. An ruu won't work anyway. Have you tried fastbooting a system.IMG and a boot.IMG. to see if it might boot? If you have your bin file from when you first unlocked. Try sending that again to unlock. Hopefully someone will pop in and give you a hand.

what commands should i use to try to get it back to normal? everything is saying my battery is too low, which really thats what is keeping me from doing anything to help the situation. I need to charge but none of the threads i have read with steps for charging have worked

Did you do a backup after brick?
I have a copy of the main files... (data.img, system.img and boot.img).
i Use this commands:
Examples
Manual Nandroid restore
Make a Nandroid backup, and copy the folder off your SD card to your desktop.
cd ~/Desktop/path/to/backup/
fastboot flash userdata data.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
MORE INFO HERE.
For the battery... try a charger with little more volts or amperes... you can buy some usb chargers on any electronic store.

thanks i will get on it and let u know what happens. Much appreciated! I did not do a backup after brick but before brick i did. I am using the transformer prime charger its a quad core tablet and it reads as having higher volts/amp than all my others.

your one x stills bricked?
No solution?

[Q] Thinks Battery is Dead. Isn't.

Hopefully someone can help me here. I flashed this onto my quad-core GSM HTC One X and it seemed to work but now my battery says it's not charged and no matter how long I charge it, no matter what cable I use, no matter the charging source, my device says I have no power and it immediately restarts and goes into this horrible loop.
I tried fastboot erase cache while in recovery but that didn't work.
Then I decided to go back to the stock ROM and the exact same problem is occurring. The phone thinks the battery is completely drained and shuts down. Even if the phone is plugged in.
Now before you say something like "your battery must be bad," this EXACT thing happened to me with my Sony Xperia Arc. Thinking I had a bad battery or bad connector I tried to send it in for warranty repair and Sony refused to look at it due to the unlocked bootloader. So I replaced it with this phone and now I'm thinking I have 2 perfectly good phones, there's just some issue in ROM loading where the battery detection went bye-bye.
Has ANYONE come across this anywhere? Is there hope? Or a fix?

have you tried full data wipe?

Yes. I've tried to go all the way back to the beginning. In Recovery, I've tried to wipe everything. All caches, all battery info, everything.
Phone boots and it looks like the problem is fixed, battery shows at roughly 90% and green. Then quickly jumps to 0% and shuts off.

that's weird... but i think it's not the device, try installing other ROM, give CHARMELEON a shot... not advertising, but they have this settings to change, like auto full wipe... etc... there might be a miracle, just have a good feeling about it.. no harm in trying.. Good luck!

I think you're 100% correct. In fact, I have this feeling that I had an old version of ClockworkMod recovery and that somehow, that's what is wrong.
Here's my issue now. How do I flash a new recovery image onto the device when the only way I can get onto the device is through the fastboot?
(using Mac) ./fastboot recovery.img recovery.img isn't working
sending 'recovery.img' (5732 KB)... OKAY
writing 'recovery.img'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)

that happened to me before, my phone won't open, i just forgot what i did, but it's possible. from what i remember, its ADB PUSH, it's like you're going to flash or push a file into your SD card by using "CMD" that's possible, well lets start searching for that forum...

hey buddy, is it all okay now? if not i made a thread about this, check it HERE

I was using the wrong command to try to write the recovery.img to the phone. Once I got the latest and greatest CWM recovery and correctly sent it to the phone, the battery issue was resolved. However, I've had some issues getting back into recovery since then and I think there were some steps missing from what I did that I seen in your post. Thanks for putting that together.

Seeing AT&T as your carrier, can you confirm that you have the international HTC One X with tegra 3 and not HTC One XL with S4 ? This recovery will not work with HTC One XL.

[Q] Please Help! My HTC is encountering serious problems!

Ok so here's what i did.
I rooted the phone, installed the CWM Recovery and everything.
Next I installed the Android Revolution HD Rom 7.1.0 by doing the "Super Wipe".
It got into boot loops
Then after factory resetting and every other things I could do I tried to do the new RUU on my O2 HTC One X Unlocked.
For that you have to Re-Lock it (which I did)
And I cant go into any of the Fastboot settings etc too because its battery level is very low.
Please someone help me. I just bought this phone

unlock the phone again. flash the latest recovery. then go into fastboot. fastboot erase cache , then flash the kernel, go into recovery flash superwipe, flash rom and reboot and job done..
before you do all that though backup your current rom

I cannot go into the fastboot and do the stuff because it prompts me that I have less battery. There's another problem that the phone doesn't shut off. When it gets out of juice then it turns black, the notification light blinks then when its charging, it loads the Bootloader. It simply just doesn't turn off and that leads to the problem that it uses up the battery much more than the required :/
I've tried powering down from the menu but no use

man i am sorry then i wish i had more knowledge to give you help. hopefully someone else with more experience and knowledge can come and advise you different. just never had that issue you see.
if you say you can not go into bootloader or recovery then it does not sound right...maybe take it back to retailer or something might be the best option if no one can help out
have you tried the power button with the volume button down for ten seconds to see if the phone reboots?

Can anyone tell me the solution to this "keep turning on" habit. If that's resolved there's nothing to it then. Please help me out here :'(

OK so I managed to get the phone UNLOCKED (Finally)
Now when I flash the 5.8.4.0 recovery it says
"unknown partition 'recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img'
error: cannot determine image filename for 'recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-end
eavoru.img'"
So i booted the phone into the recovery mode instead of flashing.
I am finally getting somewhere but how do i know it's charging there? I don't see the red LED turn ON :/

LATEST UPDATE:
So when I unlocked the bootloader again. Apparently that solved the "not turning off" habit of the phone.
I went into the bootloader and Power Down my phone, Now it's on charge (waiting for it to turn green)
And I have the O2 branded HTC One X. I also updated it to the 1.29.206.XX something.. I don't remember :/
And I only see one RUU for the O2 branded Phone and that is like 1.26.XXX.XX thing... Will that cause problems since I upgraded the firmware??

Why is it so hard for guys to flash roms. Man its getting old seeing 50,000 of the same threads over and over.
Ok on to helping
You have latest recovery. So boot to fastboot & flash the roms boot.IMG ( fastboot flash boot boot.img) now unplug the phone, press the power button. Now your back in hboot select recovery,once there click mounts & storage button , mount USB drive. Now copy the Rom to your phone. Unmount USB drive, now flash super wipe script. BUT DON'T REBOOT AFTER YOU FLASH THIS!!!!!! choose option to select another zip to flash. This time flash your Rom & reboot. Now your done. Simple huh. & to answer your ruu ?, you can't downgrade ruu's if your on 1.29, your stuck with it till a newer one comes out.

Woah! That's spot on... I was surely gonna mess up my phone if i had done the RUU.
Its charging while the screen is off as we speak. But I think there is a problem with the charge thingy.
Its off and charging.. but sooner or later it turns off due to low battery (IM SUCH A NOOB I DNT KNW IF THE LOW BATTERY IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM)
I'll wait for it to charge again though and connect to the PC again
In the meanwhile can u answer me something regarding this
1. Does the red light turns on while charging in CWM 5.8.4.0
2. Does the mount USB Drive works? :'( Cuz when the phone was working fine. The mount USB Drive failed and gave an error of having a "lunfile missing" :/

Both of your questions can be found :

OH God what am i doing wrong here

PLEASE!! Someone help me! It's got that nasty thing that gets HTC Queitly Brilliant thing again.. It's charging but won't go into the recovery mode now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please - explain with details what you did- you only relock the bootloader, or change it with original one, or else.

Try creating a batch file using :
" @echo off
:start
fastboot getvar battery-voltage
fastboot reboot-bootloader
ping /n 6 localhost >nul
goto start
"

Leave that running for a bit.

im just relock the bootloader but it have custom rom with custom recovery but i cant access to them...i creat this batch and it goes from 3000mv to 3240 then it goes down to 3210.. i dont know how charge it

it just stuck on bootloader i cant do anything

If your battery is above 10% you can still flash via fastboot.
Assuming you relocked because you want to return to stock, Do the following:
Unlock bootloader again (battery must be above 10% to fastboot flash)
Flash CWM Recovery.
Flash boot.img of custom ROM
Flash custom ROM.
Charge phone to 100%.
Relock bootloader.
Run RUU.
If that doesn't work, you'll have to leave the script posted above running overnight with the phone connected and try again in the morning.

i use the script but sometimes goes up and sometimes goes down..how many hours i need to let the battery 3680mv?

the script cant charge more than 3586 what i can do?

Gan you get into Fastboot now?

Go into hboot and select the option to power device off.? This way it keeps charging and device stays off. It only goes on if you replug the cable.

Other option that work but u should sweat is... Start the pbone, once u get stuck re start again, this gives the phone little amount of charge, but while u r doing this, should try to flash recovery cwm. It s a long trip bro. But it works, i helped three friends wirh this method.

I had a similar situation, but choosing power off caused it to reboot all the time for some reason.

how many minutes i need to charge it?
i use the script charge.bat..but when it come to 3583v it goes down why?
i dont know how to power off and restart it again?
i think my phone is dead no way to fix it

Just follow my instructions on page 1. If you can get into fastboot to flash a proper recovery you're fine!
Unlock bootloader again (battery must be above 10% to fastboot flash)
Flash CWM Recovery.
Flash boot.img of custom ROM
Flash custom ROM.
Charge phone to 100%.
Relock bootloader.
Run RUU.

[Q] I think i soft-bricked my phone. need advice on next step

Hey guys, im going to be as detailed as possible.
Couple of days ago i rooted my One X and it was all good, had installed a custom ROM and everything. But i found out that whatsapp doesnt play nice with custom ROMs. Sicne i need whatsapp( Yeah i tried to download LINE but i cant download large apps(?)) i decided to go back to the stock OS. I had a backup of nandroid on clockwork recovery mod and restored it. But it didnt get past the boot screen. Cleared cache etc still no dice. So i thought it would be a good idea to unroot my phone.No,no it wasnt.
I followed all the unrooting steps, locked the bootloader. Well here is my problem, when i tried to run the RUU it aid i had the wrong one. So i think i have found the right RUU but during the searching my battery went below 30%. Everytime i on/reboot the phone it just goes to fastboot. Am i wasting my time with this RUU stuff? or is it the way to fix my phone? If i it means anything, my cid is htc_44.
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Ok guys i really need your help, i cant even re-unlock the bootloader because the battery is too low. Whenever i try and charge it just goes to fastboot. Even if i try and powe it down it goes back into fastboot

what happends when you plug the phone in the wallcharger and boot into fastboot and then choose powerdown .... Does it start to charge and do you see a red charging light come on !
Otherwise you have to search for the batt charge script

It just goes back into fastboot. Im currently charging my battery with the bat file. After its charged what do i do? unlock bootloader and go in clockworld recovery to charge then do the RUU

Well my best guess is that you run the ruu directly after charging
Keep the phone in fastboot USB mode and run the ruu from pc with admin rights !!!

Phone is still charging, going to try RUU in a few minutes.

You can charge it from Clockworkmod 5.8.4.0, which is quicker and will charge more than the script.
