htc one x bootloop after flash

i'm not really into all of that stuff.. but i just tried and failed miserably, haha.
so this is my problem:
i got a htc one x, rooted it and everything was alright. after that i tried to flash cyanogenmod 10 on it. i followed these stepps in this video: /watch?v=elDvcVot7qo (i would enter the full link.. but i'm not allowed to, because this is my first post here)
so i downloaded the cm10_endeavoru-ota-eng.noeri-007.zip and ripndroidgapps-jb-20120805.zip .. but instead of putting both of them onto my sd card, i put all the datas which were IN the files onto my device. now my handy is stuck on the bootloop and i have no access to my sd card anymore.. i just need the access to fix it, does anyone know a solution for it?

Have you tried just holding volume down as it bootloops to see if it will go into cwm?

If you did a backup in cwm you can restore it or try and flash the rom again just make sure you read through the whole process a couple of times, mistakes are very easy to make, also look for threads about the rom you are flashing and try and cross reference the procedure, this sometimes helps ...good luck!

i did not put the zip files onto my sd card.. so i can't flash them again, i also did not make a backup the files which i need to complete it, are not on my sd card. all i need is getting access to my sd card, so that i can put the files on it.

Plug your phone into you pc, boot into recovery, then in cwm go to "mounts and sorage" - "mount USB storage" and the sd card should pop up on your screen

I've been looking around a lot and I'm seriously to the point where I'm totally confused, I have my friend's HTC ONE X (international one) where we followed Hsasoon2000's tool kit (which also uses htcdev website) to unlock the boot loader and it apparently it did and everything was good but when we tried to install the CM10 rom for jellybean using his toolkit the phone got into this "boot loop" and we can't figure how to fix it.. we can get to the bootloader.. where if we select recovery it takes us to this "team win recovery project" thing and gives us several options but .. we are pretty new to this and we don't want to screw this even more. I got to the USB storage mount and I'm able to get into the files through the computer.. can any of you guys help please?? WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT

You need to flash the boot.img.

I truly appreciate your response .. do you recommend any video we could follow.. like I said we are new to this and learning as we go. THANKS

The command is
fastboot flash boot boot.img
You can search how to get and use fastboot, I have no link. It is requirement for pretty much any ROM, though.

[Q] New Wildfire S User...

Hey guys.
I just got the wildfire s from MetroPCS. I'm looking to root it and get a custom rom on here, also looking to free up some space, I only downloaded facebook so far and my memory is already full and I cant download anything else.
I've been poking around looking for what I need in the massive amounts of threads, but I cant really seem to find clear posts. I'm also concerned about which roms and rooting methods are okay to use considering I'm on Metro. Also looking for an unbrick guide, just incase something goes horribly wrong.
First time htc user.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

First of all, unlock your bootloader here,
htcdev.com/bootloader/

Thanks so much for your response, I successfully unlocked my bootloader.
What next?

install a custom recovery, for example clockworkmod, sry i'm not allowed to post the link yet, because i'm new. -.-

http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager search for wfs. Have you got adb?
Verstuurd van mijn Wildfire S A510e met Tapatalk

If you just want to free up some space, install link2sd.
It can be found in the Play Market but first you need to make a second partition on your SD Card.
You can do this easily with MiniTool Partition Wizard.
So take your SD Card out of your phone and put it into your computer and then start MiniTool Partition Wizard.
Resize the partition and use the free space to make a new partition. You can format it to FAT16/32, ext2, ext3 or ext4.
Then put it back into your phone and start link2sd and then it should say to reboot. Click reboot now.
Then start link2sd again and click on the apps you want link to your SD Card. Click create link.
If you do this with some of your apps, there will be more internal storage available.

I should download the CDMA version right? I don't think I have adb.
Also, I have no way of putting my SD card into my computer. Is there any other way to do that?

adb is the android debugger and part of the android sdk, which you can download directly from google on the android sdk pages.

for the stock rom you can just connect your phone to your computer and copy the roms that way. most digital cameras also have that feature, so you could use one if you have one.

Download latest CWM.
Download fastboot.exe
Reboot into HBOOT
Reboot into FASTBOOT
Connect your phone to your computer making sure ADB is enabled in the phone
Open CMD
Go to the directory where both fastboot and recovery are located (They must be in same directory)
Rename your recovery file to recovery.img
Type in in CMD:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
It will be flashed and now grab a root.zip
Flash it through recovery
Reboot phone
Update SU binary or install SuperSU and you're done

Do you mean USB Debugging?
--
& Oh yes, I have the android sdk, I had to download it to unlock the bootloader.
I have an adb and a fastboot in a folder named 'platform-tools'.

Also, where can I find the root.zip? I don't want to download a wrong file by accident.
HBOOT = vol down + power , right?

yes, that should be it.

Would it be safe to partition my sd card by plugging my phone in and selecting Disk Drive (mount as disk?)

adbusy fol
Ok when I tried to to flash the recovery it said adbwinapi.dll wasnt found so I put adbwinapi in there....then when I tried again it said
error : cannot load 'recovery.img': Unknown error

Try TWRP 2.3.3.0 instead.

If you had any experience, i would laugh the crap outta me xD
But you download it as a zip right? Don't and really don't extract it, place it on you sdcard. Do all the wipes, and then flash the zip.
If you have a nandroid backup, restore the backup first to get in the system and copy the zip to the sdcard.
But if you haven't, you can do this:
Go in recovery --> mounts amd storage --> you need to see "unmount /system" and "unmount /sdcard/" (if you see "mount" instead of "unmount", scroll to it and push power button once. Then connect to pc. Install fastboot (which you needed to root your phone), then place the zip folder in the same directory as the fastboot drivers. Then open cmd (i recommend you to do Shift+Right Click in the folder, then select "Run command prompt". You don't need to cd then xD) and first do this for a little check: adb devices. When it shows your device (number + recovery), type this: adb push ROMNAME.zip /sdcard/ROMNAME.zip (replace ROMNAME.zip with the exact name of the zip, i recommend to give the zip an easy name). Then wait for it to complete, and flash it!
When you don't have a nandroid backup and not enough space free on sd, you can do it in a micro-sd reader. If you don't have one, buy one. If you don't want to, you're f*ucked.
Hope this helped

You can just open the sdcard and connect it to your computer via a card reader. That should not be difficult.

[Q] Please help me.

Hi friends. I delete all my informations in my microsd with partition sd cart option when i was trying to install lollipop. And also i flash to new 4ext recovery on recovery mode. After that i cant flash any zip via install from sd cart option in recovery mode. So there is no any rom in my phone and there is no back up folder. This reason i just open bootlooder and recovery mode option in my phone and cant flash anything. When i try that it gives me "status 0 - installating aborted" message.
I read somehere that probably this isue cause of recovery and i need to update recovery. So please help me how can handle it and install new custom rom on my phone.
Note: I tried flash recovery.img file with sdk but i do not understand why but pc didnt get my phone connected.
Please explain me your solutions step by step and clearly

Thanks for your reply. Yes when i am in fastboot , it shows fastboot USB when i connet my phone with pc. But it doenst anything to do when it shows fastboot usb, probably i did something wrong with installed new 4ext recovery (4eXT Recovery Touch v1.0.0.5_RC9) and flash new hboot ( Download custom hboot for Lollipop) . i download both in this topic ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-desire/development/rom-paranoidandroid-5-0-alpha-t3002046) . May it be wrong hboot or recovery for my phone?
After i install recovery and hboot i cant flash any zip from recovery / install from sd card section. it always gives status 0 / instalation aborted issue . And also my sdxt partition cant format even i tried many times to format it . it gives not formatted issue with my every single try ( i tried both partition one and 2 section on my sd card)
Now i flash new hboot and my hboot number changed as 6,93,1002 . But still continue to same problem. Shame on me

Go back to the old 4ext recovery and make the 2 partitiona again, don't forget to full wipe and then flash the lollipop hboot and the new recovery and try flashing the rom. I've got the same problem but there's going to be another update hopefully it will flash again.
If you want to flash the recovery from fastboot, you have to right click + Ctrl and should see open command window here. Make sure u extract the zip and right click in that folder then type fastboot erase recovery
