[Q] Phone doesn't boot - HTC One X

After installing a couple of Apps on my One X, the Screen began to freeze. Because I wanted to reboot it, but it was always the same.
I opened CWM and wanted recover my phone, but after that it didn't boot anymore, i just saw the bootscreen, but nothing else.
I hope someone can help me.

Wipe? Reflash your ROM? Reading Disaster Recovery Thread?

Can't get into recovery since I flashed latest LeeDroid 1.8b

I had Cyanogen before and I wanted to see what LeeDroid was all about.. flashed it, everything went great. Didn't like it cause Cyanogen is just so different so many more options!
So I decided to revert back to Cyanogen, to a new nightly build. I boot the phone up, goto Recovery and nothing.. it just freezes at the HTC screen. This would happen occasionally with Cyanogen and all I had to do was take the battery out and boot up again and I could get back in. I'm using Clockwork Recovery Mod SLCD.
Now with LeeDroid, I didn't even install any apps or anything, I just didn't like the Sense UI and lack of options. I powered the phone down, selected Recovery and nothing.. HTC screen and doesn't go anywhere.
I went to windows, thought I'd try reflashing using Unrevoked3 and the phone froze at the HTC screen again. I thought I bricked it.. so I took the battery out, and turned the phone on and it booted up.. checked my settings and everything was good. Tried it one more time.. then it got to the Flashing Recovery image.. do not touch your phone.. but then without saying Done or anything, the phone booted up into LeeDroid. That wasn't supposed to happen.
What the hell is going on? Now I'm scared that I might have corrupted the recovery image, my phones up and running, but I don't want to reboot it or anything in fear that it may get bricked
Have you tried to launch a recovery using fake flash?
No idea what that is.. I'm all new to this
According to this thread.. it won't work with an unrevoked root.

Try using Clockworkmod recovery by installing ROM Manager from the market. I always use that when upgrading or switching to a new rom.
No idea what's happening but I rebooted, and got into recovery.. flashed Open Desire and everything works now.. I think.
I still don't get why sometimes I can't get into Recovery and it just freezes.. does that happen to anyone else?

[Q] Rooted phone

I have a rooted Incredible and I have some issues with it right now, i tried to restore the backup i created and i get an error, i have wipped everything from the phone and i cant get it to reset to factory. Any ways to help out with this?
What issues are you having? If all you did was root the phone and that was all, i highly doubt that the issues are because of root.
i attempted to install vanilla skyraider, i backed up the orginal skyraider and now when i tried to restore the skyraider backup i get a error
Please help me, I have messed up my phone pretty bad. When I rebot my phone it goes through the normal process (Skyraider is the ROM I am using) and after the boot is finished it should proceed to the home screen but instead it takes me to a screen that has the Andoriod Logo and says tough andriod to begin, the catch is when i touch the logo nothing happens. I have attempted to factory reset to aviod the screen but i still get it back! Please help! Im in need!!

You don't have a functioning backup? Then I would try wiping everything (wipe data/factory reset, cache and dalvik cache), re-downloading and flashing the ROM (any of your choice), the file might have been corrupted some how. Good luck
I had a backup and when i went to restore it through clorkworkmod recovery it doesnt work and i dont understand why,

[Q] Dinc stuck on white "htc Incredible" screen

I installed a new rom that I ended up not liking as much as I thought I would so I restored to the nandroid backup I had previously made. Now when I turn the phone on it gets stuck at the white "htc Incredible" screen. I have pulled the battery and can get into recovery but when I try to turn it on normally it does not work. Anybody know how I can fix this?
Go into recovery, which you say you can do, and try your nandroid restore again. If that fails, it may be a corrupt nandroid. Worst case, wipe clean and flash the previous ROM that you know works and rebuild your apps and data.

Thank you very much. I could not restore to the backup I had made and I never thought to just go back to the rom I had on the SD card. Thank you.
Not trying to threadjack here but I have mostly the same problem so I thought I would just add it here. I was flashed Ruby 2.02 ROM and was just setting things up when my phone rebooted it would not get past the htc incredible splash screen so I read to pull the battery and try to reboot into recovery. When I tried to reboot into recovery my phone just vibrated 3 times then went dead. Did my phone just get bricked or what? ANY help would be awesome!

Can you still get to recovery now? If so, you are probably ok.
I am able to get into recovery but if I try to reboot from there it is still stuck at the splash screen. I think my sd card is not working right now, so I am not able to flash anything. Is my only solution a factory reset?

You need to boot recovery, wipe and flash a known working rom and start completely over. You really need to get a working card.
Well I flashed one and the problem didn't change so I am now flashing an older one of a different ROM that I hope will work.

boot loop no safe mode

Hi
im really hoping someone could help....
my phone decided to yet again throw another tantrum and crashed out, i first of all lost bluetooth like last time, and it kept hanging.
I restored the rom but no avail.
Stupidly i decided to wipe everything in clockwork mod and now the phone just shows up the android splash screen flashes and then shines again.
ive tried going into safe mode (vol - and power) but the phone fails to launch it. all it does is vibrate then continue onto the android screen
am i up the creek?
thanks for your help

try the suggestions in this thread?
(simple search brought this up)
I'm curious, did you full wipe and then try to reboot without first flashing a rom? I've always wondered what would happen if you did that, not keen to try it myself

Duplicate Samsung Epic 4g logo on boot after re-flash

Hey there. Something strange has been going on ever since I re-flashed my phone. When I flash the kernel/rom other than the stock one I get a duplicate Samsung logo when the phone boots. (phone displays Samsung logo, goes black for a second then displays again before boot) I've been flashing and reflashing ever since I got the phone and now I'm getting this. I can get into recovery and download mode just fine and other than that there don't seem to be any other problems. This is just weird. I'm wondering if there's a way to fix this. Also, I'm wondering how such a thing can happen in the first place. I've re-flashed twice now and the result is still the same.
[EDIT]
From what I understand, the boot screen file is located in param.lfs. I've read before that you can add a screen but how in the world would a re-flash cause a duplicate screen to appear? I had a failed kernal flash happen where i couldn't access the recovery and had to start over from scratch but that's happened before.
[UPDATE]
Just tried to mod the boot logo and found out it's requesting "gaudi_bootimage.jpg" twice. I have no idea what this means. Gonna go back in and re-flash the old one back in.
