Help - HTC One X

Hi,
Im obviously the biggest idiot on here and I need some help.
Last night whilst formatting my phone through cwm I was tired and accidentally hit format SD Card and by the time I rebooted it was too late.
Now I dont have any Roms to use. The SD Card is completely blank
Is there any way to overcome this issue or do I have to buy a new phone?

There should be a few workarounds here. I take it you can still get to fastboot on your phone? (hold power and vol down, then enter fastboot by using the power key). If so, put the rom you're trying to flash in your platform\tools folder of your computer. Then open a command prompt and try the following command:
cd C:\location of your platform\tools folder
adb devices (you should get a series of numbers pop up)
adb push romfilename.zip/sdcard/ (replace romfilename.zip with your rom, and don't forget the .zip)
adb reboot
You may also have to do a factory reset afterwards in recovery. Hopefully this helps!

RUU is your friend

thank you so much for your help.
i can still get fastboot
do i push the files through to the phone through fastboot with cmd? or do i need a different set of tools?

Yep, RUU is the way forward. Use fastboot to flash the stock recovery, lock the bootloader and then run your RUU

I have tried that too mate, I guess the only thing I probably can do is hope that CWM will be able to mount usb in the near future. In the meantime I don't have a phone which is killing me.

Recovered
Ok so here is what happened,
After accidentally formatting everything including SD Card contents I thought my phone was permanently bricked until cwm had external usb functioning.
So I tried using the RUU but kept getting error message that USB wasn't connected even though it was.
If anyone else is in this situation in the future make sure you install the HTC One X USB drivers onto your windows and then boot into fastboot not hboot.
I couldnt find the USB Drivers but thanks to hasoon2000 for his beautiful tool 'HTC One X All-In-One Toolkit V1.0' which can be found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604439 i was able to install the drivers. I then booted into fastboot and completed the process.
Thank all you guys for your help in this matter

[Q] Can't get into recovery (to make a back up of stock ROM)

---- PLEASE MOVE POST TO WILDFIRE S - Questions section. wrong post sorry!!----
Hi everyone!
First of all, thank you for taking the time to read this!
I have tried to do research on my problem but can't solve it...
The problem is that i can't get into recovery to backup my stock rom.
Specs: HTC Wildfire S, marvel A510e, S-on, Bootloader unlocked, Rooted, Radio-7.54.39.28M, Andriod 2.3.5, HTC sence: 2.1, ClockworkMod 5.0.2.8, Super SU.
I followed the guide: "How to root the Wildfire S with S-ON"on Andriod forums by CafeKampuchia, thumbs up for him It got me this far but, now I want to do the thing for which I rooted my phone in the first place: Installing a costum ROM. Therefore I want to backup my stock ROM.
Installed CWM ROM manager, if use backup current ROM option, the phone reboots and i get the HTC letters on my screen these. After a few sec's they dissapear and my screen goes black and my buttons on the bottom light up. I can touch those but nothing happens besides that it buzzes.... When I it boot the normal way again and use the option 'manage and restore backups' in CMW ROM manager, it shows that there has been made a backup. Not shure if I can trust it though....
When I open in HBOOT (1.09.0099) and push recovery the same thing happens. When I boot the normal way and try to boot into recovery trough CWM ROM manager same thing happens again.
I saw a other topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213229&page=2 i tried to flash this recovery to see if a older version might work, but now i have got a problem flashing... See picture: View attachment 1031874. Anyway that is not my main problem, what i really want to make it clear: is to back up my stock ROM.
Many thanks in advantage!
wait for device,you boot your phone to fastboot,and is works
---------- Post added at 09:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:40 AM ----------
I think your hboot is very high, you downgrade it to 1.030000 may be works.
Hey pal if I was you I wouldn't use rom manager, I've known it to have issues over both wildfires. Turn off your phone the normal way. Pull out the battery for 10-20 seconds or so, put it back in and hold volume down + power. Once your hboot is finished scanning the sdcard scroll down to recovery and select it with power. You should go into clockwork mod. Then scroll again with the rockers down to backup and hit it you can do as many backups as your sdcard will carry. So do that and you should have one you can trust. Also before you install your new custom rom read the main page throughout to see if it needs set up in any specific way, like with a special sdcard partition or something. And most important don't forger to wipe your cache, dalvik cache and factory reset the Device from clockwork mod recovery ! This will avoid bootloops good luck

Try booting to recovery via adb or terminal emulator.In both cases the code is

Your bootloader cannot be the issue. Go to here. And try there install recovery options. Also what happens if you cold boot the device with volume up + power?

other version of cmw recovery, by following the guide instead of flashing. That gave me the following error.
CID incorret! Update fail! Press <power. to reboot.
ok how did you install your recovery to install super user? did you just use rom manager to do it? as far as i know it only installs a tempoary recovery. which would explain why you are only getting to it through rom manager. ok do you have adb installed onto your pc?
ok take the pg76img.zip attached to this post and put it on the root of your sdcard. then boot into bootloader (not fastboot) and your phone should say it found an update. flash it and it will install clockworkmod to your phone properly. then remove the pg76img.zip from your sdcard and boot back into bootloader, select recovery and with any luck you`ll be sorted. then follow my post above and you`ll be sorted pal

Sorry made a mistake here, i tried to use adb commands while in hboot. When i tried it when the phone was on as usual i could use SU command and the # logo showed up bit than my terminal froze and i couldn't write anything else.
Than i tried it again this time only using the commands as follows:
cd c:\android
adb shell
su
reboot recovery
Difference is that the first time i typed: adb shell su. all together this freezes it up...
Anyhow it sitll doens't work.. i get an empty line in cmd, thats all..View attachment 1033568

OK,use this one one-click flash recovery5.026 in the attachment. .just download and then decompression to anywhere,connect your phone to computer with ADB driver,and then found runme.bat,and automatic to flash recovery.when finished you can see recovery on your phone like the picture in the attachment.

[Q] Messed up flashing a kernel. Help?

First, noob here to the HOX and not very bright, technologically speaking, lol.
I'm on ARHD v15.0 and was trying to flash a new kernel (ncx-217) which I repacked with the boot .img of the ARHD rom. I followed ALL of the steps very carefully but when I rebooted I was stuck on the "htc quietly brilliant" screen. So I searched and saw directions to get into fastboot, which I was able to do but, my computer will not recognize my phone now (so I cannot flash something via sdk).
Btw, I do have the CM 10 rom on my sd card to flash in recovery, but no separate boot.img to flash (or any way I know of flashing it from my computer since it's not recognizing my phone in usb fastboot mode).
Thanks in advance
I'm thinking I should just go ahead and flash the CM10 rom I have on my sd card (and hope for the best).
Ugh! My beautiful new (to me) One X...
You're on jb hboot. Jb roms and hboot do not support custom kernels as of now. You'll have to wait till jb kernel source is out and the devs to make one. Reflash ARHD.

Only problem is, I cannot flash the boot.img first because when I go out of mount USB storage (into fastboot) I lose my connection from the phone to the computer...
Nandroid?
If u had a nandroid backup before flashing the kernel.Then restore it.
If not/

No. I was actually able to flash the ARHD rom in recovery but still wouldn't boot (I'm assuming b/c I hadn't flashed the boot .img). I was unable to flash the boot .img due to my computer still not recognizing my phone, despite having installed the drivers. I went to sleep and when I woke up the phone was apparently dead (I think the connection between the adapter and the plug was not good), so I'm charging it again now.
Do you think the lack of the boot .img is the reason it's not working (and not being recognized by my computer)? Any further suggestions? Maybe I'll try and get rid of all the drivers and start over (I d/l'd the drivers several times).
I appreciate your help, man!
Yes i really think that its the reason it doesn't boot !
Install the drivers again after that remove HTC sync but leave the drivers intact its an option in the deinstall menu on the pc.
I'm gonna give a dl link to my fastboot folder . Put the folder on C:\
So it's gonna be C:\fastboot\3 fastboot/adb files.

[Q] HTC ONE X - Big problem. Might be unfixable...

Hey there guys,
I have rooted my HTC One X a while ago. Used a nice rom and it was all great. But then the HTC Sense 5 and android 4.2.2 update aired, so I wanted to update my phone. I put the new kernel and rom on my phone. Flashed both (something must have gone wrong, because I was in a boot loop). I am able to go to recovery. Somehow I lost all the files on my phone. So there is no rom left. I tried push a new rom on my phone using adb, but it was not successfull because it said: ''no device detected''. So atm I am stuck in recovery, without a rom, the mount usb function on my clockworkmod v5.8.2.7. doesn't work. I do not know if there is a solution. Hope you guys can help me out.
Please! haha!

Problem is solved. Had to flash a new recovery! Thanks to Mr Hofs and Stefan0vic!
Flash a new recovery, mount the sdcard in there as a usb disk and copy a rom to it.
Flash the boot.img of the rom, make a full wipe and install the rom.zip !

You don't have to.. you just put your recovery.img to the folder where your adb and fastboot directory is in your computer. Then hold shift+right click, select open a new command window here, then type:
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash recovery yourrecovery.img
Then you have a new recovery.. i hope this helps.

I know if this would work with anyone else, but sometimes, when my laptop doesn't recognize my phone while on fastboot or recovery, i'll unplug my phone, restart my laptop, reboot my phone to recovery, then most of the time my laptop will then recognize my phone.. i hope this would work for you too. But i really don't know what am i missing here.. but it's not that hard to give it a try.

Then you have s-off too. You should be able to flash the 4.18.401 firmware that upgrades the hboot to 1.72 and then install a sense 5 rom

Then you have s-off too. You should be able to flash the 4.18.401 firmware that upgrades the hboot to 1.72 and then install a sense 5 rom

Flash a new recovery, mount the sdcard in there as a usb disk and copy a rom to it.
Flash the boot.img of the rom, make a full wipe and install the rom.zip !

Hey there guys,
I have rooted my HTC One X a while ago. Used a nice rom and it was all great. But then the HTC Sense 5 and android 4.2.2 update aired, so I wanted to update my phone. I put the new kernel and rom on my phone. Flashed both (something must have gone wrong, because I was in a boot loop). I am able to go to recovery. Somehow I lost all the files on my phone. So there is no rom left. I tried push a new rom on my phone using adb, but it was not successfull because it said: ''no device detected''. So atm I am stuck in recovery, without a rom, the mount usb function on my clockworkmod v5.8.2.7. doesn't work. I do not know if there is a solution. Hope you guys can help me out.
Please! haha!

it usually takes a minute or 2 for adb to kick in on the phone after connecting the phone to usb port.
1) check in device manager if your phone is detected Android USB device
2) after connecting your phone PC open command/cmd type adb kill-server
3) wait for about 2 minutes
4) type adb devices if it detects your phone then you can copy the rom zip with adb push xxx.zip /sdcard(ie if you are unable to mount as usb)
Yes it's a fully touch recovery. And the mount usb function is not working in 5.8.2.7 because it's just not supported.
That's why he needs a new one
Hee guys,
Thanks for all the help. My device is running again!

Hi,
Reflash your recovery via fastboot command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery [color="red"]recovery.img[/color]
Replace recovery.img with your prefered recovery's filename.

New Z00A ZE551ML 3.15 firmware can't upgrade OTA manually
I have the same problem, although it is not likely the drivers.
When attempting to sideload the full firmware image, it errors out after a few seconds, stating that it cannot detect the device. I reboot the phone manually, then reboot bootloader from command prompt. try again and the same thing happens. First, I tried placing the file on an sd card, renaming it to MOFD_SDUPDATE but it failed after 25% and left me with the screen showing the "unplugged" icon. Now I cannot enter recovery at all. Attempted root, tethered, untethered, and no luck with any. I used an app before trying any of this to make sure it was not rooted or unlocked already. I'm running out of ideas. When I get home, I will try flashing just the droidboot.img as suggested in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/help/unlock-bootloader-read-fix-t3138837.
Any other advice would be greatly appreciated. As I said my phone has
VERSION: WW-ASUS_Z00A-2.15.40.13 and failed to manually upgrade to 2.19.40

No, I mean USB Driver, for real. You can't do anything related to debugging without having the related drivers installed.

If you are getting the USB logo on your screen you're sh!t out of luck as it is a hard brick... You'll need to send back to ASUS to get rom put back on phone...

I was very fortunate that it would still boot into the bootloader. As a result I was able to fix using these instructions and pre-rooted images, including an Asus recovery image:

Messed up? Can't access fastboot at all

SOLVED! See my last post on How-To
So, I can't access fastboot. At all. I've tried the following:
Power+Up - Nothing
Boot to fastboot from stock Recovery - Nothing
Boot to fastboot from OS (Advanced power menu) - Nothing
Boot to fastboot from All in One Tool - Nothing
Tried from 3.2.8, and 3.2.7, same result. I have an unlocked bootloader, but that shouldn't matter. And I can't lock it either, since I have no fastboot access.
I can access stock recovery, but have no way to install TWRP.
Please help!

I don't care about data here, so I have tried reflashing stock several times. Both 3.2.7 and 3.2.8, but still refuses to boot into bootloader so I can use fastboot.
Sideload is used to flash stock zip. It still refuses to boot into bootloader mode.
Sorry this as far as I know and can help hope u find a solution soon

Thanks man .. but no go. Still won't boot into fastboot from any of the ways possible.
I'm running out of things to try here! Trying to OTA update from 3.2.4 to 3.2.7 now, see if that helps.
Try adb reboot bootloader?
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
I did notice something weird. Whenever I'm in stock recovery, and ask to boot to Fastboot, the phone vibrates twice. It seems it's trying to boot into fastboot/bootloader, but fails, and then reboots (second vibration) into the "this phone can't be trusted" image.
Unsure what that means, other than something for sure is corrupt. Any and all help is greatly appreciated!

Just saw the post about it vibrating twice. Could be a corrupt fastboot. If you don't want to delete data use method one from this thread. If you don't care use method 2 https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-for-a-hard-bricked-oneplus-3.452634/

How to:
1. Power off device completely
2. Hold volume up while plugging in, keep holding until Windows; Device manager shows device or Mac: System Information -> USB shows device
3. Install drivers (follow guide in above link)
4. Start MSM Download Tool and press start
5. It should download, and let you know when it's complete. Then reboot into bootloader/Fastboot.
FIXED! Thanks so so much
Good luck
Pretty useless with anything apple as I don't use it lol. Most I've ever done was out a new hard drive and ram in and install snow leopard lol
