Help!
So, I made the switch from a iPhone 4S to a HOX a few days back - pretty excited about what the future held.
I spent some time trawling threads on here, and managed to root and unlock the bootloader through HTCdev no problem. Phone was working fine.
Then, I got a little ambitious and tried to slap the latest CyanogenMod JB ROM on via USB... and that's where things went downhill.
I'm thought I followed the guide I found to the letter, but obviously not.
After flashing the ROM I found myself with a spinning circle splash screen (this went for 20 mins). I restarted the handset, and got the same problem.
I then revisited as many threads as I could find to try and fix it, but couldn't 1) get past HBOOT or Fastboot, or 2) mount my phone on my HP or Mac.
I followed these steps from TORXX but, when I got to 'adb reboot' I received 'Error device not found' (or words to that affect).
I kept searching and followed a few more threads (clearly not having any idea of what I was doing), and hoping like anything something would work. Obviously something did work, but not what I expected, as now the device shows 'Relocked' at the top of the screen.
Now, I'm caught in a trap, as I can't unlock the device again or use any of the recovery files I downloaded, as all the guides rely on you being able to transfer files from your computer via USB (which I can't do).
I'm not keen on using the term 'bricked', as everywhere I have read says that if you can still turn the device on, then there is most likely a way to sort the issue...
As per the noob intro vid, I've tried to outline as much of what I understand/remember I've done... but as is blindingly obvious, I'm fresh off the boat from Cupertino.
If anyone could help me...
1) Unlock the handset (again)
2) Get out of the boot loop
3) Install the CyanogenMod
...it would be greatly appreciated!
Oh, I don't know if it helps but its running on Telecom (NZ) network.

Can you still get in recovery if yes just revert back to your back up and try again and do you still have your unlock key

I can't get into recovery. I just wind up back in the boot loop, or HBOOT/Fastboot menu (when I press volume down).
If by unlock key you mean the .bin file that HTCdev emailed me, then yes... If you mean the string I copied and pasted on the HTCdev site, then no.

Great, I used the tool, and it unlocked the device.
I then ended back at the spinning splash screen.
I restarted the phone, and was able to enter Recovery.
Now, going forward from here, this is the part I must've stuffed up last time... So, I'm looking for a noob-friendly way to install the ROM.
I would recommend installing arhd I can help you all the way with that the cm Rom is a bit complex

Also with that tool you don't need to fastboot boot.IMG just put boot.IMG in kernel folder open tool and click install kernel and it will install it for you
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Many thanks. I'm downloading arhd now and will try flashing it with the tool as you suggest, so will let you know how it does. Surely not even I can screw this part up!!!
Not with that tool it makes thing so easy I use it all the time no problem just don't relock your bootloader with a custom Rom
Iv gotta go work soon but I will be back on about 5pm to see how your doing
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Thanks again. I appears I spoke to soon!
I put the boot.img in the folder and performed action, but for some reason I ended back up at the CyMod screen when I rebooted?
My phone isn't showing up as a drive on my computer either...
Don't reboot install boot.img got to recovery run superwipe.zip then install arhd still don't reboot wipe cache and delvik cache then reboot let things settle down and enjoy sorry forgot to mention superwipe you can find it on arhd thread just underneath were you downloaded Rom

Any tips on how to get Superwipe onto my phone if I cant mount it as a drive? Can I do it through the tool?
Don't think so did you make a back if you did just go back to that and start again
Iv Goya go work now will be back on at 5
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Have a good day at work. I've got Superwipe on now.
Followed your steps...
1) Superwipe
2) Flash arhd
3) Clear cache
4) Clear dalvik cache
5) Reboot
But, now, after rebooting I simply end up at the HTC splash screen, and nothing loads after... Is there anything I could have missed.
Boot loops are nearly always a lack of boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img

Hi guys i would like to release the first beta release of TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project)
This recovery does everything that CWM does but better and quicker here are the features of the recovery
Key Features:
Touchscreen driven with real buttons and drag-to-scroll
XML-based GUI that allows full customization of the layout – true theming!
Settings are saved to the sdcard and persist through reboots
Ability to choose which partitions to back up and which to restore
Ability to choose to compress backups – now with pigz (multi-core processor support for faster compression times)
What's new in 2.1:
Zip queuing as seen in TWRP 1.1.x is back
Slider control (swipe to confirm most actions aka swipe to wipe)
Lockscreen (with slider to unlock)
Basic file manager (copy, move, delete, and chmod any file)
Added support for devices with /data/media (most Honeycomb tablets, new ICS devices like Galaxy Nexus)
Displays sizes of each partition in the backup menu
Added listbox GUI element (currently used for listing time zones)
Updated stock XML layouts to be more consistent and easier to port to different resolutions
XML layout files are significantly smaller
Partitions available backup are more accurate for some devices
Removed unneeded error messages (/misc errors, unable to stat sd-ext, etc.)
Fixed a bug with blkid detection code
Fixed bug where a blank line was inserted between every line of text during zip installs
Fixed a bug during zip installs where an invalid zip would cause TWRP to get stuck in the zip install
Added setting for themers to toggle simulation mode to make theming easier
New devices added - Galaxy Nexus GSM & CDMA (preview only, manual install), Acer Iconia Tab A500, HTC Vivid, Motorola Defy
Added support for .jpg images in the theme engine
Changed images for stock tablet theme - makes tablet builds about 500KB smaller
Removed unneeded non-GUI images from GUI - makes all builds about 100KB smaller
Screen Shots
Download:
Recovery.img

The random screen touching by itself on the lower right and left corner of the screen (I know because I turned screen touches on CM9) when it is plugged via USB or AC, and sometimes even unplugged. Had to lock and unlock the phone to fix it.

Yeah your bootloader is locked, i did the same thing earlier today (on purpose).
just got to go back in and redo everything. I used the unlocker on htcdev myself but thats up to you. I just wanted stock on my phone for my upcoming trip.
It was 1.09 or something like that. Now it is 1.10 something.

Right, I've had a look around the forum a bit now for help with my issue but decided it's time to post my own thread.
I unlocked and rooted my phone a while back installed clockwork recovery and CM 9. I now want to upgrade to the latest version of CM but my recovery won't boot up...
I've tried downloading the CWM manager to my phone and re flashing from there and tried flashing other recovers and yet it still tried Clock work mod flashes on and immediately off and my phone reboots...
Can anyone lend me their knowledge?
Thanks.
Put recovery.img in the fastboot folder
Put your phone in fastboot mode
Open dosprompt ( cmd prompt )
Go to fastboot folder
Type :
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
And then enter recovery
I suggest you flash the latest cmw recovery 5.8.4.0
Verstuurd van mijn HTC One X
Currently at work so will try this when i get back home.
Although, im sure this is the process i followed when trying to fix the problem before posting this thread.
Will update.
i have the htc AT&T and everytime i load clockworkmod it just boots to the htc logo and stays there
twrp will take but it wont work right, "Failed to mount cache"
If its getting messy. Download the recovery and flash it via the htc one x toolkit in dev section. No commands just clicking LOL.
You put the zip into the recovery folder.connect yoir phone then just flash recovery. Personally twrp recovery works better. More options..

Twrp is failing too, I even locked the bootloader ran ruu then unlocked and rooted, Twrp let me root but won't install another rom. Fails to mount cache.

Finally rooted the phone today, but when I try to go into an alternate recovery, or install a ROM (which I've never done before) the phone reboots (like it should I'm assuming) begins to load what I told it to do, and then I get an image of my phone with a red question mark above it, and my phone just reboots again.
What's causing this?

How are you flashing the recovery. The description you are describing is the stock recovery to flash a new recovery do it in fastboot (fastboot flash recovery name of recovery here)
Get the all in one tool from the dev section and it will do it for you.
All you need to do is choose which one you want CDMA or gsm, twrp or cwm (i prefer twrp for the one v)

'Ok the All in one tool worked. I flashed TWRP, wiped my caches and installed AOKP JB 4.1.2, i've got the "Initiating swagger" screen, how long should this take?It's been about 10 minutes...
So as far as i can tell, the rom install failed because i didnt complete the wipe (because the wipe through TWRP failed...) what causes this?
It will say it failed because the sd-ext didn't wipe (THAT'S A GOOD THING) the /sd-ext is your SD card lol. So did you get into the actual ROM for aokp? So when you clicked swaggerfy it froze? Hmm I'd try a different ROM or different kernel what kernel are u using. I reccomend Jan 3rd super slick (anything newer breaks the camera).
Edit: i noticed you said caches? Do did you click factory reset? I usually do factory and dalvik but i think factory does it all.

I hope I get a fairly quick response to this Followed some advide in that thread, flashed a kernel (I thought) using the All In One Tool, ever since, I've been stuck in a bootloop. Obviously I have access to my bootloader and TWRP (thankfully). My recovery backup returns the same results though.
Im new to this so I'll try toprovide all the info I can.
Followed the TUT on how to Unlock Bootloader and Root 2 days ago.
Yesterday, using the All In One tool, flashed TWRP onto phone.
Was unable to Flash AOKP JellyBean 4.1.2 so I asked for help again (ROM was flashed, but stuck on Initiating Swagger Boot)
Tried using All-In-One to flash (what I thought was) a kernel, since then, my phone just boots continuously or not at all (depending on if I wipe or whatnot)
While at work, I was able to Flash the AOKP rom and Boot into it, but after about 1 minute of use, it reboots.
This is where I'm at now.
My bootloader says
***UNLOCKED***

I'm using the latest version (2.3.3.) of TWRP
Is there anyway I can find, and delete, the boot.img I flashed with All-In-One, that caused this bootloop?
Found out why: radio is the new version aka .0928
HTC provided a new radio release and it screwed up being able to flash new JB roms. The fixable solution is to find the virgin mobile ruu exe and do that long process to get the old radio: .0521_2(?) back. I'll link you to the ruu thread in a sec let me find it first

Do NOT charge it over night. It damages the battery, and this is experience talking to you. Leave your phone charging for 3 hours, and that's sufficient.

SCratch that. Completed the process, the program said it did everything, but back in bootloader, it still shows Radio- 1.00.05.0929 :/ and I can't get out of boot loader lol
I'm having real trouble with my Wildfire S.
I unlocked the bootloader and rooted it last week. Installed the wildchild custom ROM and the jellybelly wifi only rom, as I only want the phone to run one app. Started to remove some of the bloatware. Everything seemed to be going okay, until I then tried to instal XBMC on it aswell (was bored at work and wanted to watch the football!) but that was a big mistake as straight after trying to reboot in just got stuck in the white screen with green HTC logo.
Now I've searched and search this forum, following various tutorials on repairing bootloop, unbricking re-flashing... everything, but nothing seems to be working.
I had installed cwm and backed up, created a nandroid. But it all seems to have disappeared from the sd card, so now can't get into recovery to install the back up. A lot of the guides I've looked at require the phone to be on to enable usb debugging etc but the phone won't start up. Which also means I can't create a goldcard.
The only thing that seems to be doing anything is running the RUU, but it gets so far and comes up error 155, and says to find the correct RUU. So, I found my RUU on HTCDEV, its the UK O2 ROM, but when I un-zipped the file, it comes as a bunch of files and folders, not the .exe as the other one was. So how do I run it, is there another programme I need?
I'm really stuck, and can't find the answer anywhere on this forum.

Okay, so I have no idea what has just happened, but, I tried to get into recovery again and cwm was working, so I've reflashed Wildchild and its all working again. So I guess something from the countless tutorials/guides I've been following has worked.
So, I'm going to start from the begining, as I've relocked the bootloader and unrooted at some stage.

No, as soon as I select recovery using the volume buttons then press power, it goes to the white screen green logo again and hangs there.

You could make wipe from hboot and see if it take something.. and you can install cwm using one package "PG76IMG.zip" in the root of the phone, but remember you will need to delete it

It's hard to help you.
What did you do with your phone?
Is it a gsm or a cdma phone?
Is it root?
Did you change the rom?
etc;;;;
That's not an error. Every body has that. You need to flash both rom and kernel

can u gimme produce how to flash both rom nd kernel?
Go into recovery, mount usb storage and connect it to the computer. Copy the rom you want in your sd card, then unmount. Do a factory reset, and install the rom trough recovery. Then boot into fastboot, take kernel on pc and flash it. If you need more help, find me on hangouts or gtalk, it's easier to help there. I'll pm you my email.

bro still i din get yo MAIL ID
I'll help here then even if it's slow.
Your phone is not bricked, it just doesn't have a rom in it. If you can't mount usb storage, try taking the micro sd out and use an adapter to connect it to the computer, or try another sd. When you manage to open the micro sd on the computer, you need to copy a rom in it.
Each rom has its kernel, so when you download a rom, check the thread for the kernel that goes with it. You MUSTN'T flash other phone 's roms. You are gsm so you can find the roms in HTC One V android development and original android development. The cdma section is not for us gsm. Download the rom you like and its kernel. Copy the rom in your micro sd, unplug it and put it in your phone. Now boot into recovery. Do a factory reset, or if you have twrp recovery wipe everything but not the sd. Now go to install zip, and select the rom in your micro sd and install it. Now you have to flash the kernel. Reboot into fastboot mode and connect the phone to the pc. It should say fastboot usb. On the pc, open cmd and locate the folder where you put the kernel. I have a fastboot folder on desktop where I put all the kernels, so I type cd Desktop/fastboot. Now, in cmd type "fastboot devices" if it gives you some numbers you can go on and flash the kernel, if it says "waiting for device" you have to install fastboot drivers. Once you get fastboot devices working, you can flash kernel. Type "fastboot flash boot nameofkernel.img" and wait for it to complete (it takes 2 seconds maybe). Done, reboot your phone and wait for it to boot up. First boot takes some minutes!
I hope you can fix it with this. If you need more help I'm here. :beer:
