Now now calm down ... your booting so everything is fine.
just follow the steps in this thread to get your phone booting and workable again ..

hi, today i went ahead and tried to flash EternityProject kernel onto my phone. I kind of messed up and now when I boot my phone normally, it goes into recovery instead. I tried restoring a nandroid backup but it didn't seem to work. Desperately need some help here.
My guess: You have the wrong Kernel for your actual ROM. Wipe everything, reflash stock Kernel, fastboot erase cache, and flash a new image (not your Nandroidbackup)
Just in case anyone with the same problem stumbles over this thread
Thanks for the help
Anyways, here is how I fixed my phone.
I did a full wipe, and flashed the new test recovery which will allow me to put the a flashable rom zip into the sd card and tadaa
Hi I am really new to Android.
I just bought HTC One x (4) days ago.
When I received it, system update 1.29.xxxxxx is available for update.
But I didn't update it and I try to root it from the link http://onexroot.com/one-x-root/root-any-htc-one-x-windowsmaclinuxattinternationalone-click-method/.
It was successfully rooted and I can replaced a custom font.
I wanted to update to 1.29.xxxx and downloaded it. During the updating process, the phone stop at the HTC quietly brilliant screen for 3 to 4 hours.
So I try the method from xda wiki (http://forum.xda-developers.com/wik...very_-_what_to_do_in_the_event_of_a_bad_flash)
But till now I am stuck at that screen.
I don't have any backup.
Can somebody tell me in detail how to recover it please?
Thanks in advanced,

You need to flash the RUU to recover.
I believe yours is 1.28.707.10 - The RUU is http://bit.ly/IjzQwM
You need to :
1) flash stock-recovery.img
2) relock the bootloader - fastboot oem lock
3) run RUU
Hey Guys, I recently saw the jelly bean update on a youtube video and I tried doing the same thing on my phone, which didn't work very well.
The video was very detailed and explained everything. I did the whole rooting thing and flashing thing. And the last step which involves unzipping the
cm10 zip file or something, when I did that, the phone said installation aborted. I freaked out didn't know what to do and I pressed factory reset.
Now I think my old and new both systems are removed from the phone. When I turn my phone on, It shows the HTC quality brilliant logo stays
there for few seconds and restarts again to the same HTC screen.
I gave the phone to a guy who said he'll try to fix but couldn't. If you guys have any idea please let me know how to fix it. Recently bought the phone
and don't wanna lose it over stupid update.
Thank you!

Make sure you have clockworkmod 5.8.4.0 or newer, if not, flash it:
fastboot flash recovery cwm-5.8.4.0.img
Then get the boot.img for the ROM you want to install and flash it:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
Then, from recovery, go to mounts and storage and mount as USB. Copy the ROM you want to flash to the drive, unmount and then wipe the cache/dalvik cache and then flash the ROM from recovery.
If you get any errors, post them here.

Hey, Thanks for replying.
From recovery, I checked the clockworkMod Recovery version is 5.8.3.1. So it's old.
Now the thing is, Since I did factory reset and data wipe from the options, the zip files I added before, I can't access them.
And I don't know now how to attach my phone to computer so I can transfer those files.
Please let me know how to flash it, if you have any link to step by step procedure that would be great.
I am attaching few images that I am getting right now.
Also, when I press mount Usb from recovery mode, unable to open ums lunfile (No such file or directory).
Your recovery version has usb mounting problems. Upgrade to 5.8.4.0 and you will be able to mount.

Like I said:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Obviously from a command line, with fastboot in your path, and with the recovery downloaded, etc.
Guys look at his bootloader screen, it says EVITA - AKA DUAL CORE VERSION of the One X. @OP, you cannot install international ROMs on your version of the HTC One X. You're extremely lucky installation was aborted because if it proceeded, it could have hard bricked your device.
What I suggest you do is try flash another custom ROM that's meant for the evita or flash a RUU to return to stock

Honestly, I have no idea how to flash a RUU or find a custom ROM for evita. I'm going to give it to another guy who repairs phones. Hopefully he'll do it. If not, I'll post here again. If you could please post a link that explains how to flash a RUU that would be great.

You need to go into the other forum for your model, try a search.
The way you flash a ruu is enter the mode you are in the pictures, then click fastboot, plug it into your computer after the ruu has downloaded. A ruu is a Rom update utility, it just flashes it all to stock.
It's a program you download onto your computer its an .exe if you're on windows then run it through and it will allow your phone to boot like its brand new.
Baring in mind all personal data will be lost.. but least your phone works.
Also I think if your bootloader is unlocked you need to relock it to run s ruu (I think)
Or you could just flash a Rom from your One X forum by following the instructions keep us updated.

Just go to the One XL forum and search there. You're not the first person to end up in the wrong forum.
Flashing an RUU requires plugging the phone into PC, locking the bootloader and double clicking.

Heyy, I went to the professional who fixes it and he is like I don't have the files so I can't fix it..
So unfortunately I have to do it by my self.
Now, thanks to you, I have searched as you told me and I found the RUU for my carrier which is rogers.
I have found a video that shows how to do it step by step to take it back to ICS. The only problem is that the RUU I found is a zip file, and when I extract it, there are lots of Img files.
But the video shows the RUU as an .exe file. Now I don't know what to do with the zip file.
Please let me know what should I do next. If I could find the .exe file I would have done everything according to the video but I couldn't.
Thanks!
...your phone is different to ours. You'll get the best advice in your own forum.
I am rooted with stock Android 4.0.3. I have ROM Manager and attempted to apply a new font, Chococooky. I was able to download and the installation process began, the phone powered off for 1-2 secs and turned on into an image with a sync sign and a loading bar, it stopped about 80% of the way full and then a new image appeared with a phone and an exclamation point: ! Root Checker was used to ensure proper root. I am properly rooted. Permissions were granted as well.
What's going on here?
Bump. I really need guidance here.

Clockworkmod failure
HTC One V Primo C
Rooted this phone awhile ago, no problems.
Decided I wanted to flash Clockwork Mod to my phone.
I'm running Icecream Sandwhich.
Went through steps.
Got all excited.
Went to Reboot Recovery.
HTC splashscreen stays frozen.
From what i've read this is called a bootloop.
I want to know how to fix this problem.
Do I need to restore to factory settings and start over?
I'm at a loss. I've tried to re-do the steps a gillion times.
Went i'm in bootloader mode, it says .img cannot be read.
I've worked on it most of last night and most of today.
Still cannot obtain problem.
Deeply frustrated. Please help!

try to flash twrp 2.2.2 CWM seems not to work well on these phones
I just got an HTC Desire A8181, and it is my very first time using an Android Device. The thing is that I already know that you can do a lot of things with Android devices (thats why I swapped from iOS to Android). Now here is my point, I basically need to know:
Basics about software and OS customizing for Android.
Basic things to know before do anything to my phone.
Tutorials for root the device (HTC Desire A8181)
Want to know if it is possible to make the phone work faster in terms of Manage the Processor and Ram Usage, how to do it, and understand the process.
And any other information that could be useful in order to make my phone work a lot better (take into consideration that I'm new with the OS and the phone, so there are a lot of things that I dont know about this theme.)
I also want to know if it is possible to install the latest Android Version on my HTC Desire and make it work fast.
Thanks in advance for your help!!!
The desire comes with sense 2.3 gingerbread. Sense is HTC's skin that they overlay ontop of the android operating system. Although it may look nice (doesnt really look that good to me), it is heavy and causes decreases in performance. When you s-off your device, and install a custom recovery you will be able to flash an aosp based custom rom. Aosp = android open source project, and basically means stock pure android...nothing running on top. As you can probably predict, this will result in faster speeds, less ram usage, and better battery. I think that answers the first few questions.
Next Ill move on to how to root it (make your phone good). I honestly think the term "root" is deceiving to most new users. I see people asking "how do i root my phone", but i think what they really want is to install a custom recovery and flash a custom rom. Being rooted on stock rom is pointless to me. Custom roms are where the good stuff is at.
Post your bootloader details here and ill walk you through the process. To get these details turn the phone off, then hold power + volume down until the phone boots into the bootloader. It should look similar to this. Post all of the first couple of lines at the top. The whole process summarized is this: s-off, install custom recovery, flash custom rom
There are also some other things that i would recommend doing so that you can have extra space for apps (you probably noticed you barely have any space at the moment), but ill get to that later when i give you more instructions.
Thanks for response so fast!

Nope, just your bootloader details for now.
Please tell me that I did not ****ed my phone
Ok so here is my problem now on, I tried to flash the CyanogenMod, but I dont know if i ****ed my phone or im just missing something...
Here is what I did:
1- I followed the instructions on another thread about the HTC_Unlock_Bootloader_Tool in order to unlock the bootloader.
2- I copied the CM-7.2.0.1-bravo.zip file into the sd card manually and also by using the "adb push" command.
But now my phone turns on, but every time that I try to access the Recovery option from the Fastboot menu just gives me an icon of the phone with a red advertise sign and then I press "Volume Up + Power" and got access to some sort of recovery options... But cannot go further than that... What can I do? Please tell me that I did not ****ed my phone?
When u unlock the bootloader u must then flash recovery via fastboot commands. In my sig ul see 4ext recovery as PB99IMG, download and extract the recovery.img and flash via fastboot. U can find a fastboot guide in bortaks troubleshooting guide (in my sig also)
Thanks for your response.

Ok so here is my new actual situation, cause I went to sleep at 3.00am just to keep working with the phone...
After check within some forums and stuff I realized that there was an app called ROM Manager that can flash the Recovery and also the ROM (Cyanogenmod is the one I want to install), I started researching for another way to do it since every single time that I tried to start in FastBoot and use the recovery option in order to flash anything I just got a black screen with an icon that seems to be the same phone with a red alert sign on its corner (icon which i really did not like at all!!!), so I started checking for another way to work with this and found ROM Manager, but when the app was installed and I tried to flash the ClockworkMod Recovery but ROM Manager was giving an error related with permissions, I thought that my HTC Desire was already Rooted since it said "*** Unlocked ***" on the Fastboot menu (My fault!) but I realized that it is not Rooted after download the Root Checker app from the Store... So basically here is the case resumed: Fastboot "Unlocked" (Via easy unlocker tool), ROM Manager App (Installed but no permissions to Flash the ClockworkMod Recovery nor CyanogenMod ROM), Root Checker App (Installed and seems that my phone is not rooted)... How do I need to proceed now on???
Thanks in advance for all your help! I never thought that Android were this complicated, but I like it ****ing so much!!! So I think that it is most likely a beginner issue

Well, to root it, you need to flash a Superuser zip from recovery. To flash it, you need a custom recovery. To get a custom recovery, you do what @jmcclue said 2 posts above.

Hahahahaha yeah sorry about that but I'm working so it is difficult to be on the phone talking about Hard Drives and troubleshoot them, while trying to figure out whats going on with my phone hahahahaha
So Basically and if I'm not mistaken (hopefully not, let me know if I am) I need to do the following:
-Download and Flash the 4eXT Recovery as PB99IMG from the previous response: After download the file can I go to CMD and use "adb reboot bootloader" then "adb fastboot flash recovery PB99IMG.zip" (that must flash the recovery right?)
-Then I need to Flash the Superuser from a Zip file: By accessing the new Recovery Interface installed previously, wipe chache / install from sd card / install from zip (that must root my device right?)
-After that I should be able to turn on my phone as normal and use the ROM Manager in order to Flash the CyanogenMod 7.2 right?
Sorry that I bother all of you in this way with so many question and ****, but I really want not only to flash my drive but also to learn about the process and what I'm doing to my phone... Thanks for everything.

Ok, so after check the other post with the PB99IMG method the phone should ask meto install something after put the zip file into the sd card and start the bootloader???

You don't need to go to recovery for the PB99IMG method. Only bootloader.

Yes thats what you should do. If that doesnt work you would try flashing the recovery via fastboot.
When you go into recovery right now and see the red warning thing, that is normal. It is the stock recovery, which makes sense because you havent installed a custom recovery yet. Once 4ext is installed you will no longer see that screen.
Another problem

Yes thats what you should do. If that doesnt work you would try flashing the recovery via fastboot.
When you go into recovery right now and see the red warning thing, that is normal. It is the stock recovery, which makes sense because you havent installed a custom recovery yet. Once 4ext is installed you will no longer see that screen.

I forgot you weren't S-off. Pardon me.
Do this:

Then extract the .img file from the PB99IMG zip, and put it on your C drive, do the path would be C://recovery.img.
Then, open CMD, connect your phone in fastboot mode, and use this command:
fastboot flash recovery C://recovery.img

When u unlock the bootloader u must then flash recovery via fastboot commands. In my sig ul see 4ext recovery as PB99IMG, download and extract the recovery.img and flash via fastboot. U can find a fastboot guide in bortaks troubleshooting guide (in my sig also)

Ok so If I understood it is necessary to have the phone S-Off which means that the bootloader is unlocked, right??
Because my bootloader says "Unlocked" on the top of the menu... What I'm not doing right?

Unlocked does not mean s-off. You are Unlocked, but S-on. Just flash the recovery through fastboot, like jmcclue originally said.
Some good news
Sello I'm glad to let you know that finally I got my phone.cpletely flashed with the CM7 and this works just great... the only thing that I were not able to do is to partition my 4Gb SD card to assign 1Gb as phone extension and the rest as external storage...
Can you help me with this last thing, I just used a previous post...
With the 4ext recovery y created a first partition of 1024Mb as the ext of the system but my phone does not sees it, it keeps saying that only have 140Mb total as internal
