Bricked my htc one x after installing slim ics for international version (endeavoru) when i had a north america one x (evita) noob mistake . so i called rogers and they said for me to take it to the rogers store and get it repaired then given back to me after 10 days. So here is the question i have a rooted one x with a unlocked bootloader, and lots of rom backups and rom files on my sd card (internal storage) so now if i take it to the rogers store can they find out that i rooted it and unlocked the bootloader? Thanks for your help i appreciate it!
Can't you do anything with your device anymore?
What happens if you press power + volume down?

First up you are in the wrong forum, secondly, you can't possibly have bricked your device, erase the cache, reinstall clockworkmod (for your device), do a factory reset (clear data), put a rom for the HTC One XL on the nand, install it, flash correct kernel. Should leave you with a fully working device assuming you do it correctly.

Take my word for it, you have not bricked your phone. Keep at it and you will soon have it working again. The best way to learn is by breaking things!

i need more info...
1- you can enter into recovery menu?
2- which is your current clockworkmod version? be careful and don´t do partition sd with previous CWM than 3.0.2.6 you can brick your device
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1043160.html
waiting for that you don´t did it!!
i can't enter the recovery menu.
I don't know witch version it was. i just used the the newes relases from the leedroid page, and haven't done any changes to the preset.
So propably don't look good for me
Just to rule it out, remove the SD card then try starting the phone (turn it off first even you have to pull battery out).

it worked with the flashed rom, i probably think its bricked
Its dead after i tryed to format the sd card.
to bad that he recommeds using rom manager....
tried nearly everthing: without sd card, without sim, connected to charger with another battery....
Can you power on the phone?
When does the boot sequence stop?
Maybe this helps:
Performing a factory reset using phone buttons
If you cannot turn on your phone or access the phone settings, you can still perform a factory reset by using the buttons on the phone.
1. With the phone turned off, press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then briefly press the POWER button.
2. Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the VOLUME DOWN button..
3. Press VOLUME DOWN to select CLEAR STORAGE, and then press POWER.
4. Press VOLUME UP to start the factory reset.

sry, i have to tell you that the clockworkmod recovery has formatted your nand-partition, what means that your phone is bricked.
as far as i remember there is no way to fix this.
you had to update your clockworkmod recovery before doing anything. you should´ve read the fat stickie in the android development section.
CWM had a bug which causes bricked phones, because it doesn't partition the sdcard, but the nand memory. this means hard brick.
sry bro.
EDIT: oh^^ just saw, someone posted a link already.
So what happened when you removed the SD card from the phone and tried turning the phone on? <<-- Ignore, I didn't see the bit where you said you'd tried it. Sorry.

what are you thinking about?
sorry i´ve a poor english
Thanks Sergi, I didn't see that bit.
I agree, if you can't get to HBoot (hold down vol- and press power button) then it looks like it is bricked. But that would mean he used an older version of clockwork recovery and I don't know where it says to use an older version.
Summary: Bricked. Send away for repair. Just don't tell them what you were doing.
Can't he JTAG the unit and flash NAND that way?
How does HTC do it?

Thats NOT a hard reset! Pull the battery, and insert it again. Now do your "hard reset". As in, holding volume up+home+power key together until you see the Samsung logo. Do a data wipe and restart. If that doesnt work, search for flashable firmware packages in the Development section. If that doesn't work either, replace your phone.
Hey guys,
Thank you both for your replies.

Sorry about that, I just read in about this phone, since it's not mine, and I already forgot about the second part.
Unfortunately, neither of this works. Every boot method gets him a white screen. Since he rooted his phone about a week ago, looks like he's going to need a new one.

try flashing the ROM using Odin from the PC
Might Odin be the same as Samsung Kies in dutch? Or is this an external program?
Assuming it's this program: http://odin-win.sourceforge.net/
Now how does this work? I've been flashing my phone for quite a while now, but I'm not familiar with this program. Can I just download a ROM (stock) from the developers part here?

That's why it's never a good idea to flash links that are just randomly posted through a thread unless it's either from the op or you know for certain it's for our phone. Only options you have now that it's bricked is either jtag or go through insurance if you have it.

Hi! Today I was trying to put another ROM into my Motorola XT317 and I made the same mistake as you - put the wrong rom and the cell have turned off. After trying many and many things, I was on the last light of my hope, I removed the battery and plugged the phone into the pc.
The buttons of home, back and search blinked and turned on. So I though: let me put the battery on and see what happens. Then, after that, the screen turned on with the battery design of recharging.
I know it is a Motorola but it would help you or other users with the same thing or phone model as my.
Thanks!

You unlocked bootloader, installed cwm, and flashed supersu.zip, correct? Everything went smoothly until then? And now your phone doesn't switch on?

Your in the stock recovery pal. Hold down the power and volume keys and you will eventually get some options on the screen. Once they come up use the volume buttons to scroll and power to select. Btw, i suspect you have a htc wildfire S not the htc wildfire. So this would be the wrong forum for you if your phone does not have a trackpad at the bottom of the screen (looks like a circle with a dot in it) then you have the S model.

Okay, pull the battery out. Then put it back in after 5 seconds. Hold down volume down, then power and keep both pressed down until a wite screen with some writing comes up. There it should say hboot, a version number and s-on or s-off. What does yours say?

Fantastic whoever else had this phone before you has done most of the hard work and security unlocked the bootloader already. http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.c...zip?key=kzoSRLwAaSgJsyXiuKJS4A&ts=1431506306 download this and place it onto your sdcard. Reboot into hboot and your hboot should request you to update the recovery. Select yes with volume up. After this you should reboot back into hboot without the sdcard in. Then select recovery from hboot and boot into it.
Once your in recovery you could either:
1. Wipe the data, cache and dalvik cache and then reboot the phone. This will reset the phone and hopefully fix and voot related issues.
2. Wipe the phone entirely and install a new rom. Cyanogenmod 7 is a good lightweight rom. Please look at the development section for all the roms available.
Just one question though, that screen damage looks like bad. Do you know what happened?

As I have said I recommend Cyanogenmod 7. Read the thread here Its a custom version but its more recent.
Now your screen, I suspect that those marks are from heat damage. Most likely from whoever else had the phone overclocking it. This could be a telltale sign of hardware damage through excessive use and it may never boot properly. I thought I should mention that.
Well i thats case would like to ask one more thing we will be able to fix it or not or its not worth it.

Depends, this phone is an old model as far as mobile phones are concerned. the cost of a motherboard and new lcd + digitizer could be the same cost as the phone in a used condition.
I work it out as £23.13 as the cheapest you could get the parts but then you would need to do a full tear down of the device in order to replace most of it. I mean basically your only keeping the frame, trackball, camera and some rubber bits.
Cheapest I can find to buy it in the uk is £25 ( with you needing to sim unlock it).
But I would add that you might as well try get cm7 on the device. The only thing it will cost you is time and you never know, the phone might be usable with CM7 on it. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
OK bro let me first give a try with the cm7 rom and see if its work and hoping for the best

Sorry, i forgot to mention, the controls for the recovery are different from hboot. Push trackball to select items, power is now the back button.
let me give a try and see if its work i installed the rom from Sd card ad restarted the mobile and hoping this will work now
I tried to install stock rom that i have downloaded from HTC Website and that is not getting installed lets hope CM7 will work i can see the ultrabeam revolutionary Logo on the screen right now its still thinking up
