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

Yes ... instal this recowery (Link to the latest unofficial test recovery with USB issues fixed and automount by RichardTrip) and you can push your zip on SD
Thanks for the reply

You need to enter the fastboot mode ... hold "volume-down + powerbutton" for 10 secs and then again push the powerbutton to enter the fastboot mode.
Edit: and after that use the comand fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
Just saw the edit now will try thanks alot man appreciate it!

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

as long as you can get the correct RUU and flash the correct stock recovery, RUU will defo work, then you can start again from scratch. I've done this myself
edit: AT&T????? Are you even in the correct forum using the correct files/methods??? HTC One XL is different forum, different files!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alright I got out of it using the st&t ruu, though I live in Canada and on Rogers. Data doesnt work but that is not surprise. Gotta wait for a root access and/or bootloader unlock for 1.85. will be patient.
Hi guys,
i've got a big problem with my HTC One X after installing Android Evolution 8 from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562603
I cant post in the thread there so I hope this is a good place.
I unlocked and rooted the HTC succesful with clockword mod.
After that I used this instruction:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxJf8xIVVC0
So i made a backup with clockwork mod, after that i wiped all the caches as said in the video and then I installed Android Evolution 8.
After reboot i got a reboot loop, after showing the startup screen the One X reboots, again and again.
I figured out that the problem could be, that i didnt use the superwipe tool, i justed wiped as in the tutorial.
Is there a way to reset the HTC or to restore the backup and to reinstall again or can I throw the HTC away?
Ok, sorry for the thread, I had no time to wait for an answer because battery was almost empty and didnt charge, so i risked it an tried to restore the Backup in Clockwork recovery.
That worked an now the HTC works fine again.
So i ll charge it and after that I user Super wipe before I reinstall Evolution 8 again.
Maybe the thread will help somebody else one day, cheers.
Steps to get out of boot loop
Hi,
You are probably got into a boot loop because the boot.img you have on your phone is not compatible with the custom ARHD ROM or is not correctly flashed. First charge the phone upto at least 50% battery (to be safe). Then try following the steps below:
1. Download this pack>> Fastboot Pack http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1616741
2. Extract the boot.img from the Custom Rom you are trying to install in a folder on your computer.
3. Extract Fastboot Pack into a folder on your computer and replace the boot.img by the boot.img extracted from the Custom Rom in Step.2
4. Turn your phone OFF
5. Turn your phone ON in bootloader mode by holding the power and vol down buttons at the same time, your phone will start in HBOOT mode. It will be displayed somewhere in the middle of the text.
6. Use the volume keys to move up and down the list, and select Fastboot, then press the power key. Now your phone will come in FASTBOOT mode.
7. Connect your phone to the computer via USB cable. Your phone will now display USB FASTOOT instead of just FASTBOOT.
8. Run 05-erase-cache.bat
9. Run 06-flash-custom-boot.bat
10. Run 08-install-clockwork-recovery.bat
11. Disconnect the USB cable. Your phone will now again say FASTBOOT.
12. Use the up or down volume key to select HBOOT and press the power button. This will take you back to HBOOT mode.
13. Use the volume keys to scroll to RECOVERY and press the power button.
14. This will take you to Recovery mode, now you can flash the Custom Rom you want using Recovery mode.
Let me know if I helped by clicking Thanks
Hi,
thanks for your answer.
Unfortunately also after using the Super wipe i've got a Bootloop after installing HD 8.1.0.
The link with the fastboot Pack doesn't work, where can I find it?
After downloading Fastboot Pack, I have to replace the boot.img in the file Android_Revolution_HD-One_X_8.1.0.zip with that one from Fastboot Pack, is that right?
Just install boot image for ARHD 8.1 that is included in thread of ARHD. This definitely boot image problem. I think you didn't flashed it. Just follow the instruction on first page.

You can only flash boot image in fastboot mode, not in CWM.

I'm having the same problem (I think). After successfully installing the boot.img for ARHD 8.1.x, I get a bootloop trying to enter recovery mode (or trying to boot normally).
Edit: I installed ClockworkMod Recovery Touch prior to this but never tested it... Maybe that has something to do with it.

You can use this tool instead of Fastboot ...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1634786
And NO it is the other way round, You need to replace the boot.img in the tool by the one you get in ARHD and then run the tool. In this tool you will find a folder for boot.img which will contain one boot.img file already. Just replace that and run the tool. for HTC One X whenever you want to install a custom Rom, you need to do this.
A boot.img is normally a part of the custom Rom zip file which automatically gets flashed when you flash the rom. BUT this doesn't happen with One X due to some reason. So we need to flash the boot.img separately BEFORE flashing the ROM.
Let me know if the above helps by clickng Thanks

Hi.. What do you mean by getting a bootloop trying to enter recovery?
Which boot.img did you flash ? It should be the one which is inside the ARHD ROM zip file. So extract that and try following the steps in my reply above. If you still fail let me know the exact steps you took and issue and I will try to help.

When I try to boot into ClockworkMod Recovery (by selecting RECOVERY on the HBOOT screen), I get a boot loop. Same thing happens if I select REBOOT from the FASTBOOT screen.
Yes, I'm using the right boot.img. It's my understanding I have to install this before I can install the ROM.
To install it, I put my phone into fastboot USB mode, and ran:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
My One X is an S-ON device, btw.
Hi, it worked for me to flash the boot.img manually first
(boot.img for 8.1.x
S-ON devices can't flash boot.img in recovery, so you need to flash it manually before flashing ROM

That's what I did, but I got a boot loop.
Where can I find a copy of the default boot.img? Or is there another way to restore my system to normal so I can try again?
Edit: Also, are there different boot.img's for different firmware versions?
Hi,
because the original thread with the boot.img has been moved/edited, I upped it for You:

Ohh sorry I assumed your One X is S-OFF, you definitely need to do that FIRST, before going ahead with this flashing business. There is an awesome tool by hasoon2000 for doing this, which you can find here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604439
Just use the above tool to S-OFF your device, flash the recovery and then follow the steps I have given before. If you need more help with S-OFF let me know and I will provide detailed instructions for doing that.

ARHD 9
I just installed ARHD 9 and followed the instructions but now when it boots up it flashes onto the homescreen for a few seconds and then reboots, does anyone have a fix? i dont have a back up either
I think fastboot erase cache might be useful.
Every ROM requires (and is packaged with) a boot.img, you need to flash the ROM and you need to flash the associated boot.img.
If you get bootloops, make sure you have flashed the correct boot.img.
If the ROM reboots after it's started, make sure you superwiped when changing bases.
Basically, do all of the steps in the instructions, without missing out any of the steps.

I have faced that issue in the past. Just flash again, follow the steps I have given before. Remember to clear the cache at the beginning, and flash the boot img that you get inside the ROM you are flashing i.e. the one inside ARHD 9. Also, before you flash the ROM, wipe data (NOT SDCARD) and dalvik cache as well.

I have been having many issues flashing roms on this phone, the number one issue is that my phone often gets stuck in boot loop after flashing aosp/cm/aokp etc roms. What I figured out is that everytime I reboot the device it will get stuck in boot loop, the only solution is to flash kernel via fastboot quite inconvenient as I do not always have my netbook with me. Perhaps it could have something to do with the update, however I have used the ruu to stock many times and this last time I did not update. Unless the hboot got permanently up dated and using the ruu back to stock doesn't revert back to the old one...
In any case am I the only one having these issues? I really don't mind sense and I love all the cool widgets but I want Jellybean so I would rather not go back to ics.
dude, both the kernels sense and aosp are seperate, only solution is take a backup via cwm or TWRP AND restore it whjen u want
I understand sense kernels are different than aosp, my problem is that after I flash rom+gapps+kernel reboot into fastboot fastboot boot boot.img that phone boots up and all is well except when I reboot as in turn power off then on my phone will bootloop. I was under the impression that once you fastboot boot boot.img you only had to reflash the kernel when you want to flash a new rom. I have to fastboot everytime my phone is shut down.
Also I just did a nandroid back up of stock rom with out flashing kernel in fastboot after using slickkernel(I forget the actual name) from aosp. So it appears that the kernel is only lasting at the intitial boot everything else gets defaulted to stock kernel.

ok try this, download sick kernel fastboot it, the flash the image via cwm
I figured out my own mistake, I was using fastboot boot boot.img which does not flash the kernel but is more of a test drive. So I now did this and all is right with the world fastboot flash boot boot.img. I do not have a lot of experience with fastboot or bootloaders. Sorry to clutter the Q&A
Ohhhh lol good

Here are the steps
*Download rom, gapps, kernel
*in recovery factory reset, wipe system ( optional)
*install ROM, gapps, kernel
*reboot into boot loader(hboot)
*Mount USB and extract boot.IMG from ROM and put it in c:/Android
*make sure phone days fastboot, if not press power button
*open up adb
*CD c:/Android
*fastboot flash boot boot.img
*restart phone and out sticks
Important part is to add flash to the fastboot commands

I think i managed to kill my one x. Here what i did to it.
I unlocked the bootloader with the One_X_All-In-One_Kit_v2.3. At this point i was still S ON. After that i flashed TWRP 2.6.0 and then cm-10.1-20130806-NIGHTLY-endeavoru. Unfortunately the ROm did not boot so i got smart and wiped everything in TWRP and tried the InsertCoin_ONE_X_v18.1.0_REPACK Rom.
Now my phone keeps rebooting all the time. When it boots up it just shows that there is no signal. When i try to unlock the screen i just have HTC on white background.
Would some please be so kind to tell me how to get it up and running again. I assumed that there is a stock rom which i can just flash over what i did but i figured out i was wrong
TIA

You need fastboot.exe from the android sdk and htc drivers for your phone installed (htc sync)
Reboot phone to bootloader
Open a command prompt and cd to the folder where fastboot is located
Type: fastboot flash boot boot.img (you can drag and drop the boot.img if you prefer or have it ready in the folder with fastboot)
Type: fastboot erase cache
Type: fastboot reboot
This is using the kernel (boot.img) that came with the rom you are about to or have already flashed.
Hi all. I'm a noob. So please dont laugh if i say something entirely stupid.
So recently i unlocked my Xperia Z1 and successfully flashed cwm and installed cyanogenmod onto it.
So i tried to do that to my HTC one X international (bought in Germany) too.
I forgot to enable usb debugging
First I went to fastboot and flashed the boot.img by typing: fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then I went to recovery but it showed twrp instead. (I installed twrp earlier but it didnt flash the rom i wanted it to)
Somehow i just dont like twrp because of earlier failures and I didnt even tried to use it again (stupid move)
so i flashed cwm found on their site for international HTC one X instead of AT&T (mine should be international, right?)
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
And the recovery just didnt work. And when i tried to boot it just showed the HTC logo
When I tried to load recovery it just showed black screen.
I tried to flash twrp again but it doesnt work.
even though every time on the command promt it showed "success"
---------------OK I just solved the problem------------------------

Same reason. I attempted to install Android 4.2.2 after I did a reboot system, then, the bootloader screen into a HTC logo with Beats Audio at the bottom. It's stuck and waiting in more than 4-20 hours.
The phone is actually 2 years old, passed from my older brother and it became a second hand device. It did well in 4.1.1.
