[Q] Cannot connect One x to PC - HTC One X

Hey all!
I'm a NOOB!...
I have rooted my phone, following some video on YouTube.. All went fine, then a friend told me to install Cmod 9.. Which would not allow me to boot into recovery. Anyway he did something to enable recovery, which has now left my phone in a state where I cannot connect to the computer.. The phone also has nothing on it to recover to, as it was wiped (silly I know). My question is, is there anyway to force connect to my pc, so I can upload a new ROM or am I completely stranded?
I know there are some pros out there and I would love to hear from you

Reflash the recovery.
Then boot into recovery and mount USB storage and you are back to life.

Thanks a lot my friend!
So for anyone else experiencing this problem
First of all I had no back up, I erased everything off of my phone and when physically connected to the pc, my device was not shown..(Unless I left it at the HTC logo, but only here my device would show up in faded grey in 'My Computer', when selected it would say 'device not ready!'
Once following the steps kindly provided above by Jonas2295 (Thank you)
Flash your recovery.
Boot into the boot loader by holding power + volume down button, until it resets into the boot menu.
Select recovery, navigate your way to ..... + Mount (I cannot remember, you will find it though)
Mount USB Storage
I found that my phone would only show up as a valid storage device on my PC when staying in that setting.. So do no navigate away from the 'mount USB Storage' setting once you have enabled it! Until you have transferred your new ROM on board.
I first used Coredroid, but that kept getting stuck at the beats logo. So I tried 'arhd' (Android Revolution HD)..
Once installing it did not look promising, as it staying at the HTC logo for about 5 minutes, then it came into play.
I now have a working HTC again
So thanks to again to Jonas2295 and hopefully by me asking this question, maybe more silly people like me can fix their HTC's
Good Luck!

You are welcome
Glad I could help you out if this situation!
Enjoy your recovered one x.

Download a RUu file, which is an exe, containing stock from, boot loader, recovery....everything you need for a factory reset.
You go to boot of your phone, sorry cant recall exactly which section. Probably fast boot mode. Make sure you connect your USB cab and have driver installed.
Run the ruu.exe on your PC, it will guide you the rest.

[Q] HOX stuck at white HTC Splash Screen after using PimpMyRom

Hello fellow Android-Users,
I'm having a problem with my rooted HOX. I've been using the IceColdJelly-Rom for a few days and after using PimpMyRom this morning, my HOX is stuck at the white HTC Splash Screen. I guess i must have choosen some settings, that don't work with my HOX. My first guess is that it is something about the CPU-Kernel or anything related since i checked some options regarding it?
Unfortunatly i cant even boot into recovery. I tried using adb-tools but "adb devices" shows no devices even through windows is beeping when i plug the usb-cable in.
I'm a little desperate because all the threads i have seen mention that they still could boot into recovery.
I can hard-reboot it holding the Power-Button until the buttons are flashing, but holding volume-Down does'nt do anything while rebooting.
Thanks to the unremoveable Battery, I cant even turn it off. It always reboots.
Any suggestions?

adb devices doesn't show any device cause you are not fully booted, you neeed to reflash the recovery by typing:
Code:
fastboot flash reocvery path/to/recovery.img
then you should be able to boot to recovery and flash a new rom...
Thank you very much for the answer!
using the fastboot commands results in "waiting for device". I checked google and people said that the HTC Drivers must be installed, so I reinstalled the HTC Sync Suite and rebooted Windows and the HOX. I am still getting "Wating for device"...
Edit: I will try to install the android SDK to see if thats the problem.
Edit2: Ok, I've read some discussions and followed there instructions but sofar nothing worked.
I have installed the Android SDK with the Tools and Platform-Tools, installed HTC Drivers and tried using the original Laptop where i unlocked the bootloader. Nothing worked.
The Phone is listed in the Device Manager of Windows in several Categorys such as a harddrive disc, a cd disc drive and as the mobile device "E:\".
I am running out of ideas what might be the problem...
Have you tried "fastboot erase cache" without the commas and then see if you can get into recovery

I can't get pass the white HTC Splash Screen. Holding Volume-Down while turning the phone on makes nothing. Tried this several times. The Phone just makes the starting sound and regulates the Screenbrightness.

That's why it says <waiting for device>... So you're not able to access to bootloader? This is almost impossible... Keep Pressed power+vol down

After turning my phone literally 40 Times on and off trying to get into the Bootloader there is only on thing left to say: Thank you, sir.:laugh:
I then followed your previous instructions and was able to flash a new boot.img and reinstall another rom.
I was already accepting the fact that my beloved HOX would only be a expensive candle til the power runs out :silly:
I am going to dedicate a beer to you later.
Really appreciating the help. Thanks!

HOX bricked help to flash (no ROM in sd card)

ok i got my phone bricked since i change some fonts ¬¬ yeah its stupid but its done, my htc stays in HTC ONE X splash screen
1.- i already did wipe cache & dalvik (i dont want to try full restore yet)
2.- i cant access to the SD card to put the ROM.zip into it
any idea on how to bring it to life again?? (without losing data)
ok i did a full reset and now its showing only ANDROID label (splash screen) and thats all u.u still bricked, any idea????
is there any way to flash from PC i mean having ROM on PC i dont have it on my HTC
flash lastest clockworkmod and you can mount USB from recovery, copy rom and install as normal.
Sent from my Transformer TF101
@vorticalbox tweet me
what the latest version i got 5.8.4.0 i think this is the latest but i dont know hot to mount USB :/
Yep that's the latest version. Flash it via fastboot:
Put the recovery.img in your fastboot folder and rename it to "recovery.img", then open a command prompt and:
cd..
cd..
cd fastboot
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Now extract the boot.img from the ROM you want to flash on your PC, and copy it to your fastboot folder and:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then boot into recovery and:
Go to mounts and storage
Choose Mount USB Storage
Copy ROM to your phone
Factory reset
Wipe Dalvik cache
Choose Zip from SD Card
Flash Rom
Reboot and enjoy
If this doesn't work, you'll have to boot into flastboot mode and run the RUU for your phone.
Either way, it's not 'BRICKED'.
Just make sure your battery doesn't go below 30% before you fix it or it will be much more difficult to recover (but not impossible).
It's impossible to totally brick an S-ON One X as whatever happens, you can always get into fastboot mode.

Ok guys. I almost had heartattack. By holding vol down buttont and power it went into Bootloader mode. I was able to get into recovery and then used venom flasher to change back to stock kernel. Oh god... Thank you guys trying to help me
Dudes, when its stuck in start up logo doesn't mean its bricked. It's bricked when you can't turn it on or go into bootloader. Please don't use "bricked" to describe every problem you encounter please.

That is true. What's more I was stupid enough to flash kernel to totally different phone (One XL). Luckily my stupidity was spared this time.
I hope OP will repair his phone too.
Like I said, it's pretty much impossible to 'BRICK' an S-ON device.
What about If you flash a Ron intended for a different phone, doesn't this change the layout of system positions? Or I'm just being stupid and you need s-off to mess things up like that?

Flash the newest CWM Recovery. Or any recovery with that you can use the option "advanced restore". Now Backup your Rom> wipe everything> restore>advanced restore>restore data only

I think this qualifies as "bricked"
OK, I am trying to help my sister with her HTC 1X. It will not turn on whatsoever. I hold down the power button, nothing. I hold down the power and one of the volume buttons (up or down), nothing. I hold down the power button and both of the volume buttons, nothing.
I have hooked it up to my laptop because I was able to find some drivers for the device and some files that will allow me to root it, should I be able to get the phone to do anything. Anyway, the only thing I get is a message from Windows saying that the device has malfunctioned and that I should disconnect it and reconnect it or replace the device.
I've scanned through several of the threads but cannot seem to find anyone with as legitimately bricked a 1x as my sister has. I am used to rooting and ROMing Samsung devices and thought I would lend a hand by trying to help out with this HTC device but I cannot get it to even show up in MY Computer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah, I was afraid she was going to have to send it back to HTC. What really stinks is that she's only had the phone for 35 days at this point. Started having problems a couple of days ago and ATT doesn't seem to want to do diddly.
Anyway, thanks for the response!
No worries. Pls let us know the outcome. Good luck.

Alright then, be sure to hit the thanks button.
You unlocked bootloader, installed cwm, and flashed supersu.zip, correct? Everything went smoothly until then? And now your phone doesn't switch on?
Have you tried holding power, or holding power and volumedown?
Can you see a led when connecting to a charger?
How about windows device manager? Can you see anything there when plugging phone in? Plug in sound?

Well I think HW approach is the only possibility to get it working.
Try to press the volume down button with a screwdriver or similar instrument and see if it works by pressing real hard.

wow i got into bootloader now!! another issue is the battery level is too low to flash :crying:
Get into the custom recovery and let the battery charge in there !
What recovery do you have ? Type and version number ?

No problem!!
