Unfortunately i gave the phone back to a friend who need help, so cant provide any info

Hi there,
I have the same issue.
Am running the carrier ROM (Telstra - Australia), on a HTC Desire GSM. I rooted it using unrevoked 3, and the phone is working fine, except for the Clockwork Mod recovery.
When I boot into recovery mode, I'm not able to load custom roms or make nandroid backups. It just gives errors about not being able to mount CACHE or MISC partitions.
I tried updating clockwork to 3.0.0.5, but that failed to resolve it, as did another go with unrevoked. I can't even do factory wipes! Cache wipe was also ineffective.
Is there possibly a problem with the /recovery partition? Any way to correct it? I don't have s-off, as alpharev fails with some error about expecting unary operators. Otherwise I'd try pushing a new recovery image through with fastboot.
I've checked every thread where this is mentioned, no resolutions yet that don't involve using fastboot. Some help would be nice.

Do you have a pvt4-desire? If, you have to flash amonra-recovery, because cwm is incompatible with pvt4-desires.

or CWM 2.5.1.8 will work in addition to AmonRa. I've used both with my PVT-4.
and flash your recovery from fastboot, not by using unrevoked, it's just easier.

Already did change the sdcard sir.
On another note, whenever i tried remounting the /system for RW access to copy flash_image, free space drops to Zero Kb. To isolate, i tried remounting to just Read access, free space remained the same. Anything I'm missing here, or do I really have to S-OFF my phone before I can make changes on my /system ?
Thank you very much.

For this part I think you need to disable signature verification in recovery.

[Q] Dead Screen: Recover/clone DInc??

My rooted HTC Incredible screen has died, but otherwise the phone works (I think). I was running MIUI on it. I used Titanium Backup and the MIUI backup utility, but had not used them for a while, so my most recent setup was not saved. I can access the phone via USB/ADB. Is there any way to pull the currentconfiguration off the phone so that I can "clone" it to a "new" Incredible? If so, suggestions are gratefully accepted.

Tried adb pull * *?

adb shell
cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > /sdcard/misc.img
cat /dev/mtd/mtd1 > /sdcard/recovery.img

cat /dev/mtd/mtd3 > /sdcard/system.img
cat /dev/mtd/mtd4 > /sdcard/cache.img
cat /dev/mtd/mtd5 > /sdcard/userdata.img
This will back up all system partitions. use flash_image or fastboot to restore the images.

OK, so I was able to use the commands to back up muy dead phone. I am having a lot of trouble restoring the new rooted/s-off phone with flash_image or fastboot. Can someone recommend a site with step by step set of instructions, write it out here, or a GUI program that will accomplish the same thing?

The new phone is s-off right? What hboot version is it on? Flashing images remotley (from a pc) with fastboot requires either the .77 engineering hboot or one of the new ones unlocked. I would flash the .77 hboot then restore the images with fastboot then flash back to .92 hboot. You can get the hboots here http://dinc.does-it.net/Hboots/

If you got the img's to restore with the .77 eng, then you just need to flash back to the .92 hboot and it should boot.

Unfortuately no. I am able to get into recovery and so did a restore.
Then I went back into recovery and delete the cache and Dalvik
Then flashed .77hboot again
Did a Fastboot flash of system, userdata, cache, recovery, but was unable to do "boot.img" FAILED (remote: image update error)
re-flashed back to .92 hboot
rebooted Incredible and frozen again at white HTC Incredible screen.
Any suggestions?

Did you install the .77 hboot or the eng (engineering) .77? You need the eng one, that will allow the fastboot commands. Then flash back to .92 and it should boot right up.

Nope. Unfortunately it didn't work. I was able to erase the boot, but when I tried to flash the new boot.img, I still got the same error message. I tried a couple of different copies of the same file that I had stored in different places, but still the same error.
I also opened the MIUI ROM zip file (I am using MIUI) and tried to use the boot.img from there to flash. I was able to flash that boot.img, yet the Incredible still is frozen at the white "htc incredible" screen.
Ah well. Unfortunately, with the amount of time I have spent, I could have started from scratch with the base MIUI ROM and cusomized to where I wanted by now:crying:
Thanks for all your help.

HELP. HOX is dead

Hello
Yesterday i unlocked bootloader on htc one x. Then i tried to root it but when i finished my hox did reboot and then reboot all the time. It goes on start screen of android and then reboot again. I cant do anything. Any idea or help?

How did you root it?
Did you flash a ROM without flashing its boot.img and fastboot erase cache?
Did you install a custom recovery?
What screen are you stuck on? "htc quietly brilliant"?

I remember when this happened to me when I first tried to root my phone (First Android phone actually) lol I freaked out.. In my case it's because I didn't make a full wipe after unlocking bootloader and flashing Cyanogen, just booted into Recovery, full wipe/wipe cache and it worked.
Tell us what you did like BenPope said, did you flash the boot.img for the ROM you installed?

the first i did was to unlock bootloader from htcdev. Afther that i tried to root by a guide from this forum:
ALTERNATE ROOT METHOD - 'INSECURE BOOT AND ROOT'
This zip file contains an insecure boot image to flash to your device and a script which will then push the root (SuperSU) files to your device. This is only tested on 1.27.401.2 / 1.27.401.7. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Download
InsecureBootAndRoot r3 - DOWNLOAD (ROMraid) - MD5: a16bff582cb0e25fd3b422652d753ca7
How to use InsecureBootAndRoot - Windows, Linux and OSX
- Download the InsecureBootAndRoot zip file above and extract to a directory
- Put your device in bootloader mode - Turn off the phone then turn on with the 'volume down' button pressed to enter the bootloader, then press the power button again to enter fastboot.
- WINDOWS - double click 'install-insecure-windows.bat'
- MAC - Open a terminal window to the directory containing the files, and type 'chmod +x install-insecure-mac.sh' followed by './install-insecure-mac.sh'
- LINUX - Open a terminal window to the directory containing the files, and type 'chmod +x install-insecure-linux.sh' followed by './install-insecure-linux.sh'
The device will now flash the new boot image and reboot. Keep the device attached to USB and when it has rebooted, ensure USB debugging is enabled - the SuperSU files will then be installed.
CONVENTIONAL ROOT METHOD - 'SUPERBOOT' (currently not functioning on shippping devices).
Superboot is a boot.img that when booted, will root your device the first time you boot (installing su and the superuser APK). No need to flash any partitions, no need to mess around with ADB, no messing with the contents of your data partition, no overwriting the shipped ROM on your device, just boot the boot image using the instructions below and you're done!
Download
Superboot r1 - DOWNLOAD (ROMraid) - MD5: c79821d5d75d57dff8a5ffe7493241fd
The superboot image is also 'insecure', allowing you to use 'adb remount' as well as having full ADB root access to your device until such time as you reboot after running this process (it's a non permanent ADB root as it's a 'fastboot boot' and not a 'fastboot flash' but it IS a permanent root in all other regards!).
How to use Superboot - Windows, Linux and OSX
- Download the Superboot zip file above and extract to a directory
- Put your device in bootloader mode - Turn off the phone then turn on with the 'volume down' button pressed to enter the bootloader, then press the power button again to enter fastboot.
- WINDOWS - double click 'install-superboot-windows.bat'
- MAC - Open a terminal window to the directory containing the files, and type 'chmod +x install-superboot-mac.sh' followed by './install-superboot-mac.sh'
- LINUX - Open a terminal window to the directory containing the files, and type 'chmod +x install-superboot-linux.sh' followed by './install-superboot-linux.sh'
That was the steps. I didnt tried to put a custom rom yet. And the worst is that i need my number and i dont have an another device with micro sd. :/

It's funny, because there are two methods that you've pasted there. I have to ask, why did you not go with the recommended one? The one you didn't paste here?
Try it, you might like it.

I tried the first one and after i saw that my hpox rr all the time i tried the second one.
You mean this method?
EASIEST ROOT METHOD - 'RECOVERY + SUPERSU'
The easiest way to get root is now to install the official ClockworkMod release and then flash the latest SuperSU zip file. This approach is highly recommended (I also recommend running a backup as soon as you've flashed clockworkmod!)
I do now and nothing. Cant get the command.

I don't understand what "my hpox rr all the time" means.
At the top of your hboot does it say ENDEAVORU or EVITA?
What does "can't get the command" mean?
Edit: ahh, is it "command not found" when you try to run fastboot?

You could just flash a rooted rom and kernel now, it should work fine.
Flash this recovery http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
Install a rom from recovery, you can mount usb from recovery to copy rom to phone.
Then flash the kernel from fastboot that acompanies the rom.

ENDEAVORU is good.
I kind of expected you to be flashing clockworkmod 5.8.4.0 as the recovery.
Once that's done, you take a backup, download the SuperSU zip file, boot into recovery, mount sd as USB, copy the zip onto the SD card, unmount and flash it.

I dont know what you flashed, but you'd be better off with the latest clockworkmod, version 5.8.4.0
Doing a backup from that recovery is easy.

What I dont get is why you didn't just root/unlock bootloader via htcdev.com

[Q] I'm worried I killed my phone

I decided earlier today that I'd try to root my one X, but I wound up screwing up to the point that I'm lost. I accidentally wiped the system while in recovery, and when I rebooted, it kept looping. By pressing the power/down button, I can get into the bootloader, and from there into recovery. In the recovery, I was able to look around using a file manager but only found empty folders.
I used adb push to try to get a rom onto the phone, but I'm not able to flash it. When I go to reboot, it informs me that there's no OS installed.
If anybody has any idea what I can do, it would be much appreciated.

im assuming you already unlocked your phone
1.Enter fastboot by holding power + volm down.
2.Select fastboot
3.plug in USB
4.flash recovery with the command: 'fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery here>
5.flash the boot.img that came with the ROM, usually it's located within the zip file
6.erase cache using command: 'fastboot erase cache'
7.select Hboot to return to main menu
8. go to recovery
9. wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik from advanced options, format system from mounts and storage menu
10. in mounts and storage, select mount usb
11. copy over ROM zip
12. Install from ZIP
13. reboot system
PS. your phone is only bricked if it can't turn on. obviously it's not going to boot up if there is nothing to bootup, lol

Just ensure your recovery is a recent version, like clockworkmod 5.8.4.0, otherwise mounting won't work.

Thanks for the quick reply. I don't entirely understand how to flash the recovery, however.
I assume I'm running the command on the computer. How do I know what to type in as the recovery?

Mate, did you even do your research before attempting any of this?
Anyway,
Make sure you got HTC sync installed, also Android SDK
1/ Open to a command prompt by going: start -> type in cmd
2/ browse to your folder containing fastboot and adb using the 'cd' command
e.g. My fastboot folder is located at "C:/htc/fastboot" so I would type: 'cd C:/htc/fastboot'
If you're using the one from SDK it could look like C:\Users\Steven\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools
3/ enter the commands -fastboot flash recovery ...., fastboot flash boot.... etc.

Not nearly as well as I should have. I learned the hard way I guess. Thanks for putting up with my cluelessness though.
I've done as you said, but when I tried to boot into the recovery, I got stuck on it looping the "htc quietly brilliant" screen.

You sure you flashed it Successfully?
and downloaded clockworkmod from here?

Could it be that I have a bad boot.img? I'm using one out of the renovate 8.1.0 ROM.

I was able to get my phone running again by following the video here --Nevermind, Can't post the link yet. Should anyone need it, send me a message--. Basically, I had to relock the bootloader and install the RUU.
Now, however, I'm trying again to root my phone, but whenever I try to unlock the bootloader, it still remains locked ("relocked" on the bootloader screen). I can't find anything about how to fix this. Have I lost the ability to root my phone?

That guide is for the One xl (the us version) as it says "evita" on the topic.. the international one x is "endeavoru". Which phone do you have? There are good guides on here. how to root and a very easy tool in the developement section.

That guide is for the One xl (the us version) as it says "evita" on the topic.. the international one x is "endeavoru". Which phone do you have? There are good guides on here. how to root and a very easy tool in the developement section.

Error mounting sdcard

Are u trying to flash the rom immediately after unlocking the bootloader?? When the bootloader unlock is performed, the data is wiped completely.. Now u have to restart the device to mount the sd card again in recovery..

1) you will never be able to mount the sdcard in recovery, so stop trying
2) what is the fastboot command you typed to generate the output?

do you have the files in the same directory with your fastboot.exe?
you could also boot into your custom recovery and use adb to push a rom to your phone.

i hope now its clear what i am facing.
i can boot to fastboot and to recovery , but cant do anything else
if i flash something then the "Too many links error" comes
thanks for the help , is there anything else i can try
========================
ok i found something interesting
when i flash something i get the error " Too many links"
then when i run fastboot.exe devices , i get
???????????? fastboot
and after reboot i get
H:\brick\xda-24-3-2013\yakju-jdq39>fastboot.exe devices
My IEMI number fastboot
y is this happening

*sigh* ...
Op, uninstall all drivers, reboot your system;
Connect device in fastboot to PC, manually update drivers, disconnect device, reboot PC
Connect device again, flash recovery, after it finishes, disconnect USB, use volume keys to "reboot recovery", reconnect USB, manually update drivers again
'adb devices' should return your SN
'adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/' or if that doesn't do it, 'adb push ROM.zip /data/media/'
