I was originally running the rooted sense 2.2 rom and I attempted to switch to Leedroid using Rom Manager's "Install from SD Card". That went fine until it crashed at the end of the install process in recovery... Then it wouldn't boot (stuck at white background with green HTC). I attempted to redo the r5 root flash as it was the only other rom I had and I could still get into fastboot, but now (I'm assuming) it's stuck on the radio update part of the flash in step1... The fastboot flash zip command completed with an OKAY, but it hasn't yet rebooted - all I have is a black screen with the HTC logo and a full green progress bar.
I know unplugging it while doing a radio update is a big no-no, so what should I do? It's been sitting there like that for the last 20 minutes.
Edit: Well, after waiting for a while I bit the bullet and just unplugged it... And it works fine. No idea why it froze, though...
Hi, I have a very strange issue. My One X just randomly stopped working. It started to randomly turn itself off (not the usual random reboots, it would simply stay off). It started about 2 days ago and the problem continued to appear more and more often. Today it turned itself off and didn't want to boot again. When I tried to boot it, it got to the HTC quietly brilliant screen and just turned off. The battery shouldn't be the problem because I charged it and it won't boot when it's connected to the PC either. When this problem appeared, I wiped cache and dalvik cache in recovery, hoping it would fix it. After that, the phone started to turn off after spending a few seconds in recovery. Now I can't access the recovery anymore. I flashed CWM again just to be sure and it still won't boot into recovery. I also tried with fastboot erase cache and reflashing the boot.img, but no luck. I am running ICJ 3.2.1 I think (not sure about the exact version and there is no way to check it) and hboot version 1.39. S-ON, bootloader unlocked ofcourse. Booting to bootloader works and the phone stays in there without turning off. I deeply apologize if there was a similar thread to mine, but I am very, very busy because I'm writing my final exam tomorrow and I really need my phone.
EDIT: I just tried to boot it and it worked for some reason. I can't even begin to explain this problem, it is really, really weird. tried booting it a minute ago and it didn't work. I literally just wanted to enter bootloader but I guess I didn't press the volume down button hard enough and it just booted normally. It turned off again after a few seconds and now it won't boot again. When I leave it connected to the PC when it's turned off, the PC starts to make USB connect/disconnect noises quite randomly.
Why don't you try flashing the latest version of ICJ (3.4) with a full wipe and see whether the problem persists? Can you enter recovery now??
However, there's always a possibility of a hardware failure... and your situation with the random reboots / recovery reboots suggests somethings wrong!

Sounds alot like a issue I had on ICJ quite a while ago.
If you select recovery at the bootloader, do you see the recovery for a split second and after that it reboots? I did flash multiple recoveries but it all didn't help. The luck I had is that fastboot was still working
I tried everything to get it to work, but nothing seemed to help. The only luck I had was that fastboot worked, and with that I managed to flash a RUU. What actually happend I don't know, but it worked again.
I have the latest nightly PACman 20130926 installed and had NEAK kernel installed on it.
I then changed to Thor (not realising I should have came from PACs kernel first and not NEAK) but got bool loops. I went in CMW recovery and
reflashed NEAK.
The phone was fine for a few hours but not has gone into continuous boot loop.
I cant get into recovery or download mode, just constantly rebooting. Same thing happens when connected to PC via USB, when its charging,
with sim and sdcard removed (not that those things would usually make a difference)
Can anybody please help as my phone is inoperable.
Thanks
I flashed the boot.emmc.win onto my phone this one to be exact https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B0hKTzcXgVfcelVoa21GVGpKbkU/edit?pli=1
and it was successful ( i think). I managed to get my phone back into hboot but when I rebooted it from there, the screen was on but black. Pressing the vol up|down changed the ringer and Power + Vol down took screenshots. I still saw the HTC bootscreen etc. Im trying to wipe the device right now and it wont go back into hboot or get detected on my ADB, I've managed to get it detected on my computer and get into the storage but I'm not sure what to do from there. Basically this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPCVecKSPAA
edit, okay I got it to recovery, and I wiped and flashed the Stock backup in TWRP. Rebooted and it's now on the loading screen. well I just fixed it myself.
Good job man
Hello,
I have been trying to fix my phone all day, searching various forums online, but I haven't been able to find anything.
I rooted my phone about 10 months ago, I just installed CWM and the rootkit. No custom ROM or Kernel. I used very popular apps such as Greenify and a few others. I didn't touch anything else or do anything fancy.
When I woke up this morning, I grabbed my phone to check the time, opened Chrome for some browsing and suddenly my screen froze. I thought it was just going to freeze for a few seconds but it ended up crashing entirely and I couldn't reboot at all.
I tried plugging it into my computer but it wasn't recognized at all. The Samsung USB Drivers didn't work and Odin didn't recognize it either. I couldn't boot into Recovery or Download mode anyway.
After searching for hours, I found this : ht tp:/ /w w w.droidsavvy. co m/unbrick-qualcomm-mobiles/
I followed all the steps but ended up getting stuck with some error during the QFIL processus. I was about to give up when suddenly my phone started vibrating, and the "Battery charging" logo appeared (it's now fully charged).
I could access download mode, so I tried installing USB drivers again and somehow my phone was finally recognized by Odin. I reinstalled CWM 6.0.5.1 and was able to enter recovery mode. I also flashed a stock ROM with Odin.
Using ABP, I was able to backup all my photos. After backing up everything, I wiped the cache and started a factory reset through CWM. But then, my phone crashed and got stuck in the bootloop again. I tried to wipe the dalvik cache but it crashed as well. I tried to install the rootkit again (why the hell not) but it crashed too. Each time it crashed at "Disabling OTA survival"
I tried factory reseting through ADB but it doesn't work either.
I looked at many different solutions to fix it, but none of them worked :/
To sum it up (TLDR):
- Phone stuck in bootloop
- Phone is recognized by my PC (Odin, ADB)
- Can access both recovery and download mode
- Flashing new ROM didn't do anything
- Can't wipe dalvik cache or do factory reset
