[Solved] Stuck in CWM Recovery

During installation of ARHD Rom I suddenly got caught up in CWM Recovery mode. I have now tried to wipe system and everything and do a "restore" of my NANDROID backup without success. My question then is; how the hell can I push a ROM to my phone with the phone only in CWM Recovery??? I'm kind'a desparate!!!
Can also mention I'm on a Mac!
Hope someone has the answer!

Try restoring your nandroid backup, just remember to flash the boot.img
Sent from my fauxed HOX running ARHD 8.0.0

Did you flash recovery to the boot partition? (fastboot flash boot recovery.img)That could explain why it only boots to recovery. Try flashing recovery again (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.) then the boot.IMG (fastboot flash boot boot.IMG )then the Rom.

I've already tried that, I've even tried going to advanced restore -> boot -> restore boot without success..
BTW; I've now managed to push a new ROM onto my phone, installed it but still it won't but other than to recovery!!!

Sounds pretty much like what I did.. Will try your version now..
LATEST EDIT:
Seems like it did the trick rayford85.. Nice to see the bootanimation on my HOX again! Stupid step to forget (flashing the boot.img) LoL! Thank you rayford85!

Reusing this post to another dumb question... Everytime I reboot my phone it seems like the boot.img disappears because I have to ./fastboot-mac boot boot.img for every reboot of my phone!
Any good ideas of how to solve this?

[Q] Bootloop after root attempt

Hi guys, really hope someone can help!
I've looked in this forum and tried everything but nothing seems to work. So this happened:
I have HTC One X Three Network UK, RUU version 3.14.771.34
I went from stock to unlock the bootloader via HTCDEV, that was no problem. Then I downloaded that insecure root file from this site to try and root it. That sent my HTC into a bootloop, it will not boot, jus sits at the HTC logo.
I've relocked the bootloader in prep for an RUU, but I cannot find a THREE UK RUU thats 3.14.771, only version that are 1,29.771.xx and those will NOT flash, I have tried but the windows prog comes up with an incorrect rom error message.
I have also tried extracting the boot_signed.img from that RUU and doing it manually via fastboot, still no luck. It copies it over, but then says FAILED (remote: not allowed).
So what can I do now? I can still get into fastboot and exectue fastboot commands. Also Hboot of course. But what am I to flash????

seems like your bootloader isn't unlocked

That's right, I relocked it! I had it unlocked and even put CWM on it but flashing custom ROMS from CWM didn't solve the bootloop so I followed the instruction on the websites to relock the bootloader and use RUU! But no RUU version is high enough for me to flash! What the **** do I do? This is crazy!

Download an ICS custom rom and flash it through CWM.

Did that already. Didn't work, still kept bootlooping. And now that I have relocked the bootloader there's no way for me to get CWM back.

I would try and unlock the bootloader again and flash philz touch recovery and try to flash a custom Rom again, if you really want back to stock go to fastboot
Fastboot getvar version-main and post the outcome
We might be able to help you get the right nandroid or ruu

Unlock the bootloader, flash the custom recovery and download this nandroid backup
http://bugsylawson.com/files/file/184-cwm-nandroid-backup-cid-h3g-106-31477134/
Restore it and AFTER that you flash this stock recovery
http://db.tt/pO3jumMa
Then you are able to update when one comes out !

As stated above, you can't do nothing with the bootloader locked.

Hi, thanks for the tip, I have now UNLOCKED the bootloader again and put CWM 5.8.4.0 back on!
When i do GetVar version-main I get this:
E:\android\android>fastboot getvar version-main
version-main: 3.14.771.34
finished. total time: 0.008s
It is three UK, I have tried to search google for that RUU but only versions lower than 3.14.xxx exist and those will not flash, even with extracting the signed_rom.img from the RUU.exe
I will try to restore once again the nadroid backup and see if it will let me boot but I am not hopefull

Ok, my progress has been abysmal!
I've done all of the steps above:
I have reinstalled CWM and then restored the nandroid of 3.14 using CWM as set out above, then flashed the stock recovery using fastboot. Upon boot it still won't boot into android, just stuck on HTC logo!
WHAT TO DO???

Flash the boot.img from the nandroid backup folder !!!
And also :
Factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Advanced-wipe dalvik cache
Mounts & storage-format cache,data,system
Then restore the nandroid and boot it up !

And lock bootloader i think
Fastboot oem lock

No not needed, leave it unlocked. No advantage to lock it.

Well if you want to go completely stock then yes but if not then just leave it unlocked
Edit: oh yeah warranty purposes only right? Relock bootloader?

YEEES! Thank you soo much! Flashing the boot.img did the trick, my phone boots again into android! I had done a complete nandroid restore through CWM using the nandroid backup file you recommended, but that was before I flashed boot.img and it didn't help. I assumed that because boot.img was within that nandroid backup folder the CWM restore option would automatically do everything, but it clearly didn't.
Thanks again! Mr. Hofs, YOU ARE AWSOME!

Thank you for the kind words
CASE CLOSED !

did you flash the boot.img of the rom?

Are you sure that you have the one X and not xl?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

First of all, make sure that the bootloader is unlocked,
then flash philz or twrp 2.6.3.0 or cwm 5.8 touch recovery or 6.0.3.2 non touch recovery.
Now mount usb storage from the recovery and copy the stock rom nandroid backup or any custom rom that u wanna install, to the internal storage.
Now, Unmount usb storage and restore the backup/install the custom rom.

It's some serious problem, try flashing the RUU, get it from here
Flash that, if runs then fine, otherwise you gonna have to visit htc care.

[Q] Can't flash ClockworkMod Recovery

Hi,
I've unlocked my bootloader using fastboot like described on htcdev.com. Then, after the reboot, I've installed the ClockworkMod ROM Manager and followed the instructions till the download of the recovery image. Once the download is finished though, I get the message: "An error ocurred while flashing your recovery"? Am I missing some setting or something?
Thanks

Sorry, but what does that mean? Going into fastboot with vol-down + power and then selecting recovery?

No flash the recovery like the unlock token.
Enter fastboot usb mode and flash the recovery by command

Thanks, it worked! Although I payed for the touch version of CWM, which I installed, but it's not working

payed for CWM ? they are all free......don't know what you bought ? .....
flash this recovery and touch works (you are probably on a high hboot, 1.72, 1.73)

Yeah well, I thought for support, whatever...

ah you bought the rommanager app, well that won't work indeed because we need s-off for those kind of flashing procedures and we don't have s-off on the hox. All flashing goes via fastboot and pc.

I bought rom permium + the touch recovery.

i think the last recovery from them is 5.8.4.0 (or similar) and that works, but not with touch on the latest hboots. waste of money, sorry to say

But you flash the boot.img from computer and after this from recovery you must wipe and flash the rom. First flash BOOT.IMG after this go in recovery and flash the rom and gapps. When you use recovery you don't need computer
