[Q] Can't get to Recovery mode - HTC One X

Rogers North American HTC One X. ***Tempered*** ***Unlocked***
Was following the One Root X video tutorial to unlock and root my phone. I got to the point where I need to get into Recovery to install the Super User zip. But I everytime I select Recovery, the phone goes to an HTC screen with the following message "This build is for development purposes only Do not distribute outside of HTC without HTC’s written permission. Failure to comply may lead to legal action"
The phone then reboots normally. How do I get passed this?

did the custom recovery flash correctly?

I did this on a mac, so my last step on the terminal was this:
HTML:
./fastboot-mac flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.2.7-endeavoru.img
And the terminal returned OKAY

I'm not sure on the code for mac, but that looks right.
I presume you managed to unlock your phone alright through HTC Dev?

yes

After flashing recovery try typing: fastboot erase cache .. this helps sometimes

Check your phone hasn't re locked itself, try unlocking it again reflashing the recovery and then flashing the boot.img the same way

Also, use the latest CWM - you're still using the old one

Hello,
I am having the same problem with my HTC One X from Rogers in Canada. I succesfully unlocked the bootloader (and I verified, it is still unlocked), I also installed a custom recovery, version 5.8.3.1 I believe, and I tried erasing the cache right after.
All of that worked, but still when I go into bootloader mode and select recovery, it just shows the htc "quietly brilliant" screen with a notice under saying "This build is for development purposes only blah blah blah".
What else is there that I can try? =/
If it's of any help, I used Cursed4Eva video tutorial on youtube.

anyone able to help or get it to work..i'm having a problem

I cant help you but i´m having the same problem and i´m currently working on it...

Any similar ROMs I should consider? All I wanna do is increase battery life and performance. I do wanna keep Sense 4.0 on there.

Hi All,
Experienced the exact same issue after flashing CWR 5.8.4.0. Found this thread and followed the advice to install the interim build of CWR and I was able to boot into recovery an flash supersu... thanks for the tips here.
I'm curious now though... is there any hope for us to install 5.8.4.0 or anything later than the interim build (5.8.3.1)??
Curious as to why our phones wont boot 5.8.4.0... I'm running a TELUS HOX.

Wrong section. This is for the international HOX. Use guides and help from the forums of the Rogers One X. Find the forum here

ClockworkMod recovery and HTC One X

Right, I've had a look around the forum a bit now for help with my issue but decided it's time to post my own thread.
I unlocked and rooted my phone a while back installed clockwork recovery and CM 9. I now want to upgrade to the latest version of CM but my recovery won't boot up...
I've tried downloading the CWM manager to my phone and re flashing from there and tried flashing other recovers and yet it still tried Clock work mod flashes on and immediately off and my phone reboots...
Can anyone lend me their knowledge?
Thanks.
Put recovery.img in the fastboot folder
Put your phone in fastboot mode
Open dosprompt ( cmd prompt )
Go to fastboot folder
Type :
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
And then enter recovery
I suggest you flash the latest cmw recovery 5.8.4.0
Verstuurd van mijn HTC One X
Currently at work so will try this when i get back home.
Although, im sure this is the process i followed when trying to fix the problem before posting this thread.
Will update.
i have the htc AT&T and everytime i load clockworkmod it just boots to the htc logo and stays there
twrp will take but it wont work right, "Failed to mount cache"
If its getting messy. Download the recovery and flash it via the htc one x toolkit in dev section. No commands just clicking LOL.
You put the zip into the recovery folder.connect yoir phone then just flash recovery. Personally twrp recovery works better. More options..

Twrp is failing too, I even locked the bootloader ran ruu then unlocked and rooted, Twrp let me root but won't install another rom. Fails to mount cache.

HTC One X Walkthrough anyone?

First and foremost, please know that I have searched and searched again for hours and really have exhausted what in my opinion is my skill level for the rooting process. Previously hacked a PSP but that seemed easier than this.
I have tried the one click method and I have tried the HTCDev method. Both to no avail. I've run the .bat, I've tried the cmd cd Download cd OneXRoot... I couldn't get the One click .exe to run on my Windows XP even after installing .net framework. Can anyone help? I will divulge phone software versions, firmware etc if anyone decides to help me... And please only comment if you can specifically help... No trolls, no haters, no unconstructive comments.
Sorry for the noobism...
Thank you.

hi , try using this it should be what you need if you are going to flash custom rom's go to htc dev to unlock bootloader thats the first and foremost thing you need to do . Htcdev is just to unlock your bootloader and nothing else
http://onexroot.com/one-x-root/how-to-root-one-x/
if i helped you say thanks =)
What issue are you currently having with 'HTCDev'? Did you successfully unlock the bootloader?
Try checking this post out:

Also, check this out, more specifically:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604439
Hope that helps
I promise you all those methods do not work. I tried to run the root.bat access denied. I tried the one where you open up cmd and type cd Download, access denied... Finally I tried One Click but the .exe wouldn't open due to wrong .net framework, which I then downloaded but I was told by XP was not able to install 4.0.3...
Obviously I am going to need a work around on this but like I say One Click is no good for me... I'm going to reply again with my phone's info... I'm guessing the cmd way will be best to eventually get to work for me...

have a careful read through this, this is the most complete guide for rooting manually, if you don't want to backup to start with you can go straight for unlocking your bootloader (after that to installing the recovery, then to installing the rom )

Hi mate, firstly u need to install the SDK etc,
Then you unlock your bootloader
Then you can install the custom recovery
Then you need to install the super user app (or SU etc) This will give your rom Root privileges (i.e you can install mods etc) This is not installing a custom rom
If you want to install a custom rom you can skip the step above as all custom roms have these root privileges.
Download your rom and stick it on your SD card
Make a backup through the custom recovery (you can revert back to stock if things go tits up)
Boot into fastboot and flash the boot.img via fastboot commands (or use a fastboot kit if one is supplied with the rom)
Go into recovery, flash your rom and reboot
The above is just summarizing whats on the guide I gave you so you should know what order you need to do things and where to look on the guide
If I do this and unlock the bootloader**** sorry predictive text!

[Q] Finally took the plunge and rooted it, but can't do anything else?

Finally rooted the phone today, but when I try to go into an alternate recovery, or install a ROM (which I've never done before) the phone reboots (like it should I'm assuming) begins to load what I told it to do, and then I get an image of my phone with a red question mark above it, and my phone just reboots again.
What's causing this?

How are you flashing the recovery. The description you are describing is the stock recovery to flash a new recovery do it in fastboot (fastboot flash recovery name of recovery here)
Get the all in one tool from the dev section and it will do it for you.
All you need to do is choose which one you want CDMA or gsm, twrp or cwm (i prefer twrp for the one v)

'Ok the All in one tool worked. I flashed TWRP, wiped my caches and installed AOKP JB 4.1.2, i've got the "Initiating swagger" screen, how long should this take?It's been about 10 minutes...
So as far as i can tell, the rom install failed because i didnt complete the wipe (because the wipe through TWRP failed...) what causes this?
It will say it failed because the sd-ext didn't wipe (THAT'S A GOOD THING) the /sd-ext is your SD card lol. So did you get into the actual ROM for aokp? So when you clicked swaggerfy it froze? Hmm I'd try a different ROM or different kernel what kernel are u using. I reccomend Jan 3rd super slick (anything newer breaks the camera).
Edit: i noticed you said caches? Do did you click factory reset? I usually do factory and dalvik but i think factory does it all.

I hope I get a fairly quick response to this Followed some advide in that thread, flashed a kernel (I thought) using the All In One Tool, ever since, I've been stuck in a bootloop. Obviously I have access to my bootloader and TWRP (thankfully). My recovery backup returns the same results though.
Im new to this so I'll try toprovide all the info I can.
Followed the TUT on how to Unlock Bootloader and Root 2 days ago.
Yesterday, using the All In One tool, flashed TWRP onto phone.
Was unable to Flash AOKP JellyBean 4.1.2 so I asked for help again (ROM was flashed, but stuck on Initiating Swagger Boot)
Tried using All-In-One to flash (what I thought was) a kernel, since then, my phone just boots continuously or not at all (depending on if I wipe or whatnot)
While at work, I was able to Flash the AOKP rom and Boot into it, but after about 1 minute of use, it reboots.
This is where I'm at now.
My bootloader says
***UNLOCKED***
PRIMOC PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT- 1.57.0000
RADIO- 1.00.05.0929
eMMC-boot
Jun 18 2012, 10:22:43
I'm using the latest version (2.3.3.) of TWRP
Is there anyway I can find, and delete, the boot.img I flashed with All-In-One, that caused this bootloop?
Found out why: radio is the new version aka .0928
HTC provided a new radio release and it screwed up being able to flash new JB roms. The fixable solution is to find the virgin mobile ruu exe and do that long process to get the old radio: .0521_2(?) back. I'll link you to the ruu thread in a sec let me find it first

Do NOT charge it over night. It damages the battery, and this is experience talking to you. Leave your phone charging for 3 hours, and that's sufficient.

[Q] Trouble Loading My Recovery

Hello Everyone,
Me and my friend are having some major issues in loading my "Recovery" option so we can switch my ROM to the [PacMan]. I have both [Root] and Bootloader unlocked on my phone. When ever we try to launch into my Recovery, below my splash screen I get this message, "This Build is for development purposes only do not distribute outside of htc without HTC`s written permission. Failure to comply may lead to legal action." The screen will stay like this and not load anything. I dont know if this is bad or a good sign. Any Ideas on how to fix my issue? I will go the full length in order to fix this.
My Phone is a HTC One V by VirginMobileUSA.
Me and my friend in worse cases are going to try to Re-Unlock My bootloader, reroot, and go from there.
Please someone help!

That screen is completely normal.Everyone gets it.dont worry.
In order to get to the recovery,you must first flash it.
The command is 'fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img.
