Hi guys,
I rooted my HOX using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1843585 . It went ok.
Then I flashed the jb rom, also went perfect. Because i really like sense i wanted to flash the viper rom, then everything went terribly wrong.
I flashed it and when it finished the device began bootlooping. I pressed the on/off button and volume down to boot into recovery, when i select recovery it tries to open but then the device shuts down and begins bootlooping again. So i cannot get in to recovery. I tried to reset recovery using the hox disaster recovery tread, but when i type the commands in cmd it keeps saying failed.
Is my phone ruined now? can this be fixed? can someone please help me or tell me where i can get help?
I tried using the search function but i didn't find anything, i actually don't really know what to search for... :crying:
I really hope someone has a anwser for me .
Thanks in advance.

If your recover doesn't work, have you tried reflashing clockworkmod recovery via fastboot?
Also, did you wipe data/factory reset before you changed ROMs?
your phone phone is ok since he is unlocked. the bootloop is caused by wrong boot, have you made a back up for the .
Here what you will do:
1-hold power+ vol down until you get the bootloader menu.
2-go to hboot and hit power to access fastboot.
3-connect your phone via USB (you should get fastboot usb).
4-get the boot.img file from the ROM viper copy it and paste in a folder name it for ex fastboot.
5-Enter to this folder, Hold alt+shift and click right click and chose open command window here.
6-type "fastboot erase cache", should write ok.
7-type "fastboot flash boot boot.img", should write ok
8-reflash your rom again via recovery choose fullwipe in aroma installation.
9-reboot your phone.
open command prompt. type c:\whereveryourfastbootis\fastboot erase cache
as long as you can boot into bootloader(and its unlocked), and you didnt flash stuff for a different phone you're OK

I think i tried, but i will try again, probably did something wrong.
Yes i did a factory reset. I think it went wrong because i had a custom kernel and did a full wipe.
Don't worry, when recovery tries to load and the phone reboots it means you need to fastboot erase cache. i had the same problem when switching to a jelly bean rom and kernel. the factory reset wont help this.

Thank you for comferting me , obviously i don't know much about flasing roms (and i'm a girl so i have the forces of nature against me) fist time i tried to root and flash a custom rom on my desire hd it took me over one week , because i didn't understand anything and had to google every single word in the guide. I just try to follow the guides step by step and then it goes ok, but if something unexpected happens i'm really lost . I'm so glad i could get help here .
Thank you guys so much for helping me out, i wish there is something i could do in return.

hello, im in need of some help
i had/have cwm recovery (touch) on my one x, after flashing TripNdroids AOKP rom and can no longer boot to recovery.
i can boot to bootloader, but when i select 'recovery' it begins to load (for a split second) then the htc splash appears and boot into the rom.
i have cwm rom manager on the phone, and have the same outcome when i try 'boot to recovery' from there, and when i try a 'restore' i get the same outcome.
to make matters worse, i have no gapps as i needed to flash them after rom install.
im not to worried at this point, i think its fixable, i just dont have the knowledge, hopefully i will by the time its sorted.

You really should have posted this in the right section. Either way, "fastboot erase cache" from the fastboot menu.
sorry, hopefully a mod will place it correctly.
so my cwm recovery has gone? do i just need to re-install? as i tried this lastnight and i failed.
could you/someone point me in the correct direction please
edit~ lol read wrong, i should be good now, will update later
Can't you try to reflash recovery if you have problems with it?...
Cheers, R
hi,
go to fastboot and try this:
"fastboot erase cache"
il try that later when i get home, to lappy, thanks
Wiping cache doesn't make sense to me, we are trying to boot in the recovery remember? Could you two elaborate?

There's some terrible advice being thrown around here. Relock the bootloader? Flash a RUU?! Seriously?
Yes, he just needs to erase the cache from fastboot. Yes it's a known issue which has been covered in Trip's thread about a hundred times. Yes he probably should have searched and would have found the answer. No, he doesn't need to reflash his recovery or return to stock or any other ridiculous suggestion.
Honestly, stop and think before you post, and if you're not sure of what you're saying don't say anything. Better no advice than the wrong advice.
Come on. I've been using it. just go to fastboot and in then "fastboot erase cache" then reboot the bootloader and open recovery! You have to do it every time u need to open recovery.
the first answer is the correct answer

I had the exact same issue after installing tripndroids CM9. I freaked out as flashing the recovery again did not solve the issue for me. after about half an hour of trying everything, I tried erasing cache from fastboot and it worked for me.

All he needs to do to get into recovery is wipe his cache, I hardly think advising him to wipe everything and reinstall the stock operating system is appropriate (or 'correct'). Especially as he'd then need to reinstall his cm9 ROM, and would then still need to wipe his cache to be able to get into recovery.
The thread you linked to is a guide on how to recover a phone which won't boot, which is an entirely different scenario.
It's equivalent to telling a PC user that they need to format their hard drive and reinstall Windows because they've deleted their browser. Yes it will work, in that they'll have their browser back, but it's completely the wrong advice for that particular situation. Which is why I said think before you post, to be sure the advice you're offering is the best advice for the question being asked.
Solving this problem with a RUU is like killing a fly by firing a nuke at it. Although a nuke is fun fun time, while a RUU ain't
It ain't right the recovery reboots over an unknown-state cache though.

Where do you guys dig up a thread like this ? Its almost a year old LOL !
Hey guys I've just unlocked the bootloader on my HOX and installed CWM and rooted. I had a Galaxy S2 before so flashing roms was a bit different and before I end up bricking my my new phone, I just wanted to get some more info/confirmation as to what I (think) I know before flashing a new rom, Android Revolution. Hopefully this can help some other noobs.
I've downloaded the required files, the rom zip, the kernel bootimg and super wipe.
I have a FAIR GENERAL idea of the steps but I'd like to confirm here before damaging my device.
To my knowledge:
1) Place the rom zip on the internal SD card via USB cable as normal along with the super wipe zip.
2) Boot into the bootloader, enter fastboot and connect the phone via USB and open CMD from the same folder used to root it, with those files present. When CMD is opened enter fastboot devices to ensure the device is being detected and then flash the bootimg kernel using the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
3) (unsure of this step and following steps...) After flashing the bootimg via adb reboot the device and enter bootloader mode again and this time enter recovery.
4) In CWM, reset to factory settings (data wipe), clear cache, clear davlik and then flash the super wipe zip and finally flash the rom.
Those are the steps I know..and I've also read of a .bat file to execute the adb commands automatically but I don't know exactly how that works and I'm a bit scared to try it. I've done my research so please don't flame me for asking this, I'm just scared as hell to brick my new phone.
If someone has a clearer simpler list of steps please post them or please correct any errors I have there. Thanks in advance for the help guys

Making the bat file is very simple..I'll help you on fb if you want...Everything else looks good though...do you really need to connect to the pc every time you want to flash? 0_0

The bat file isn't an issue..once I have the correct commands (if someone can confirm that too it'd be appreciated ) I'm good. And yeah I think so because a kernel ..or bootimg can't be flashed in CWM cuz its S-On ..so anytime u need to flash a new rom I guess you'd have to flash the kernel for that Rom via fastboot.

Okay so I am trying to install the jdroid rom, btw first time ever doing this so bare with me, anyways I can't boot my phone stays at HTC quietly brilliant screen with some writing underneath it red. I can get into the bootloader menu, where I am rooted and says my bootloader is unlocked. I can also get into clockwork mod however I messed up when transferring the rom onto my phone. I unzipped it and put it there instead of leaving it in the zip file. I can't mount to my laptop through clockwork mod, is there any other way? Again I can't boot my phone. Thanks
EDIT: Now whenever my phone boots, it boots into the clockworkmod and keeps rebooting I can't do anything, cant mount my phone at all

What you need to do when flashing:
a) CWM recovery
fastboot flash recovery xxxrecovery.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
b) Flashing a ROM
extract the boot.img from the ROM.zip
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
enter recovery
install the ROM.zip
reboot

Hi,
I've looked through a lot of threads but can't match the symptoms to mine (this could be a lack of knowledge on my part) so any help is appreciated.
I've previously flashed ARHD a number of times successfully including a new boot image. I flashed 9.2 today with CD Tools Suite and this was fine. I later decided that I wanted to re-flash without the CD Suite Tools and did this by going into recovery and re-flashing the ARHD zip.
The update ran successfully (per CWM) but I can't boot into it. All I get to is the HTC One white screen with a beats audio logo beneath it. I also can't get the phone to reboot into flashboot / recovery so that I can do anything with it (I've tried holding the power button and either vol up or down but this just reboots the phone and it goes back to the white screen again).
I'm sure there is a way out of this. Could anyone please help me?
Many thanks.

Did you use fastboot to flash the correct boot.img file first? It's my understanding that anytime you flash a rom you must flash via fastboot the correct boot.img file for that rom followed by erasing cache before entering recovery and flashing the rom.
Didn't someone say holding volume up & power can brick your phone?
Fastboot is volume down & power.
Press them at the exact same time, keep them held till fastboot loads up (even if it does another reboot)

Hi, after attempting to flash a custom ROM to my phone I'm experiencing a big problem, the phone will not boot past the HTC screen. This is obviously very frustrating as the phone is pretty much rendered useless.
I am able to get into the HBOOT menu by holding the Power button and Volume Down and from there am able to select Recovery and enter the ClockWork Mod recovery screens. As you can tell I'm a 100% noob and I really just want to revert my phone to a working state. My network is Vodafone UK. I can't find an RUU above version 3.13 which is apparently what I have (so it tries updating 3.13 to 3.13 and obviously fails).
Any help on getting my phone to work again would be very very appreciated, thanks.

Download a ROM onto your computer, connect to your phone in recovery, mount the sdcard, move the ROM from your computer onto your phone's sdcard, and flash from recovery. No need for RUU.
Dont forget to wipe.
wipe data/factory reset and format all partitions (except sd card) from recovery.
Go to bananagranolas link in her signature, you'll find everything you need there.
Thanks a lot for your help! I was attempting to flash the JellyTime ROM which I understand must have failed to result in my phone not booting properly. Should I flash a stock ROM or will any ROM suffice?

As long as you are S-OFF and have a custom recovery (CMW or 4EXT) you are able to flash any custom rom you like. Just make sure that you make a full wipe before the flashing (wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, format system or in 4ext recovery just choose format all partitions except sdcard).
That should leave you up and running again.
Okay great!
I used the HTCDev tools to unlock my boot loader which I understand is different to S-OFF? Could that be while the ROM flashing failed originally?
EDIT: Upon trying to flash the JellyTime AKOP Rom I get a message saying install from SD card complete but it's still stuck at the HTC screen...

If you have an unlocked bootloder, then you have to flash the rom (previous full wipe of course) then reboot bootloader (from advanced options in CWM) and then in fastboot (you should see fastboot usb in red in the phone when plugged to the pc) you have to flash the boot.img inside the rom zip folder.
Extract that file only (not the whole rom) and from a cmd session or terminal as root (located where the boot.img file is) type:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Once that is done (you will get OKAY. finished near the bottom) you can reboot normally by typing in cmd fastboot reboot or choosing reboot from hboot.

You can go back to stock by flashing a stock RUU from your PC.
(Edit: You should relock your bootloader first. you can do so from Hboot. There's an option that says relock bootloader or something like that)
