Seems I'm in the wrong forum section, I have a Dual Core processor.
So I managed to unlock bootloader through htcdev.com, managed to root it with OneXRootOneClick and also managed to get Clockwork Mod Recovery.
However, as I followed these steps:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562603
As I tried to install Android Revolution HD 9.7.0, through clockwork mod recovery, a few moments after it starts installing, the application seems to crash when it reaches this directory: system/lib/libssl.so. I then return to the main menu of the clock mod recovery.
At the moment, I cannot normally boot my phone. Either I open it in bootloader, either it stays stuck on HTC logo with the following message: this build is for development purposes only do not distribute outside htc with out htc write permission failure to comply my lead to legal action.
Any help/assistance is appreciated.
Use fastboot to flash a different recovery, I recommend TWRP, flash using fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img
Then boot into the new recovery and try flashing the rom
Also make sure that your download isn't corrupt by checking its md5 value. Redownload the rom just to be safe.

Let me guess,
You have a dual core S4 ONE X and flashed ARHD which is for quad core tegra 3.....
Yeah?

not bricked (as far as you can access the bootloader),
EDIT:try flashing the boot.img(kernel) using the fastboot method step 5 below, if your phone is S-ON recovery will not be able to flash boot.img even though it shows as successful
make sure you identify your phone as Quadcore(tegra 3 processor) or dual core(S4 processor) then read this if its the quadcore, or go to this forum if you're Dual-core.
I'm not familiar with differences between tweaking steps of S4 and T3 devices, but if you're sure its an International T3 One-X you can follow the following:
1-Return your phone to its original state. (using an RUU flasher if neccessary)
2-Read the tutorials' steps properly.
3-After reading all the steps, root and install a custom recovery( i used this tool its easy and quick)
4-Download the Custom rom(arhd) and install it (you will most likely get bootloop if you start phone before next step but its fine)
5-extract the boot.img(kernel) from the rom.zip file and flash it using fastboot mode and wipe the cache in the bootloader (arhd supplies a tool that does this, flash_boot_9.X.X.zip)
6-Wipe cache and dalvik and reset battery stats(advised if phone is fully charged)
Hope i helped.

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.

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 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

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?

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.

Your problem is that the HTC dev method unlockt the boot loader but you are eng s-on.
So you can flash a custom ROM but you can't flash a kernel. So you need to root and unlock t again.
What I should do is relock the bootloader and flash a ruu.
After that search for the (aahk) advance ace hack kit and root t again. The good way:laugh:
Hey thx for your reply,
where do I get these ruu roms , and sould I lock the bootloader after I flased the ruu rom and how do I lock the bootloader angain ?
Thx in advance
Btw if i lock my bootloader again and run this hackkit, do I still have my recovery mod and a possibility to flas my ruu back?

Here can you find a ruu http://www.filefactory.com/f/efa28fefafc4af9c/
You can lock the boot loader whit adb " I don't know the command for that"
CWM make a backup to sdcard you never lose them.
Edit: the boot loader relock if you flash a ruu.
You can flash the ruu with the bootloader
Well i tried to flash my rom, I made with CRM and then ran the hack kit. I said i've to downgrade my android version.
After it downloaded the rom it said failed to update cuz my main version is older.
Any idea?
Does the phone boot into the rom?
If it does, is it now on a froyo rom?

Ok, it's like this. The way most people get root and recovery (and the recommended way) is through the AAHK. It gives you an option to flash a completely unlocked ENG S-OFF bootloader, which allows recovery to flash the boot image to the /boot partition too. This is what makes the phone start, otherwise it'll be stuck at the HTC Quietly Brilliant screen. Most people will tell you that you should run an RUU and get back to locked bootloader state and then run the AAHK. This IS the preferred method if you want to have a fully unlocked phone, but if you're finding it difficult to do, don't do it.
You've unlocked the bootloader using the htcdev unlock tool. What that does is partially unlock your bootloader. It allows you to flash zips to the system partition and data partition, but not the boot partition. So what happened to you was that you flashed CWM recovery, used it to flash a ROM, but it didn't boot - this is because though the ROM flashed fine, the corresponding boot image for the ROM was not flashed, so the ROM cannot start. The main headache with htcdev method of unlocking is that it leaves you with a S-ON bootloader preventing the flashing of boot image directly from recovery. You will need to flash it manually each time you flash a ROM.
The procedure to do that is -
1. Download the attached zip file, extract it to Desktop or wherever you want using 7-zip/WinZIP.
2. Open the ROM zip file you downloaded. Extract boot.img from this zip to the previously folder which you just extracted in the above step.
3. Turn your phone completely off (pull out battery). Then hold 'volume down' while pressing power and continue holding it till you see a white screen with 3 green skateboarding Androids. This is the bootloader.
4. FASTBOOT will be the first selected option in the list. Press 'Power' to select it. Make sure that now it shows FASTBOOT in red under the initial green text.
5. Connect your phone to computer. See that the red FASTBOOT changes to FASTBOOT USB.
4. Open the adb_fastboot folder, open 'Start here.bat'. It will open a command prompt window in that folder.
5. Type 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img'. You only need to do this once. It will flash 4ext Touch Recovery, which is better than CWM (thanks to madmaxx82 for the awesome recovery).
6. Type 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'. You will need to do this everytime you flash a custom ROM, but before you do so be sure you've copied the boot.img from the ROM zip to the adb_fastboot folder.
7. You should see some stuff like 'Sending data... data sent successfully'. If there's any error at this step report it here.
8. Once it has done everything and displayed a successful confirmation, disconnect phone.
9. Hightlight BOOTLOADER and press 'power' to select it. Press 'volume down' to highlight RECOVERY and 'power' to select it.
10. Once you're rebooted into 4ext Touch Recovery, go to 'install zip from SD card', browse for the ROM zip file in your SD card. If you haven't copied the zip to SD card, go back a step, connect phone to computer, select 'toggle USB storage' and then copy it onto the SD card. Once you have the ROM zip on the sdcard, go to the main screen of the recovery, choose 'wipe/format'->format all partitions (except SD card). Now go back to main screen, choose 'install zip from sdcard' and browse to the ROM zip location, select it and confirm that you want to flash it.
11. When the flash process is done, go back to the main screen of recovery, and press reboot now. You will reboot into the custom ROM.
This is the process to flash a custom ROM and get it to boot properly IF you have unlocked the bootloader using www.htcdev.com. For AAHK unlocked S-OFF bootloaders, you can just flash the ROM zip from recovery. The boot image will be flashed too.
Before trying the above try this and you might get lucky.
Boot into clockworkmod wipe data/factory reset. Wipe cache. Wipe dalvik cache. Flash the custom rom again and wait 15 mins for it to boot before giving up.

What you're saying is correct for fully unlocked S-OFF boot loaders. The ROM take sometime to boot the first time because it has to build the dalvik cache. The time it takes depends on the number of apps. Same thing happens when you wipe dalvik cache, it has to be rebuilt on boot.
But the problem here is, the OPs phone is unlocked using htcdev. With that method, the boot loader remains on S-ON. So the boot partition cannot be flashed to using recovery. The boot.img will have yo be manually flashed through fastboot, otherwise the ROM won't boot no matter how long he waits.

That htcdev unlock sounds like a nightmare. Glad I stayed away from that one... I used to flash different roms with s-on on my desire (not DHD) for a while with no problem. There was a rooting method called unrevoked that flashed clockworkmod with s-on. I guess DHD must have a different version of nand lock which restricts flashing part of the rom from zip?

Yes. The boot image does not get flashed. This is what sucks about htcdev unlock, and the reason why HTC pissed off so many people. The community asked for bootloader unlock, HTC gave a half-assed bootloader unlock. Alternative methods to gain S-OFF are always preferred. Some devices unfortunately don't have S-OFF methods yet, so they have to use htcdev unlock. HTC One X for instance, don't know about the other One series phones.

Hi! I tried flashing my HTC ONE V (GSM) with Pacman ROM available on this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho....8770.
I started from the very beginning of this process and here is what I did :
1. Unlocked my bootloader using HTCDEV site. ---- WORKED WELL.
2. Installed ClockWordMod recovery - touch version. ----- WORKED WELL.
3. Downloaded Pacman ROM from above link posted on XDA developers only.
4. Downloaded GAPPS for 4.2.x from the link available on the same link above.
5. Fastboot flashed my phone with BOOT.img file available with Pacman ROM ZIP file. ---- WORKED WELL.
6. Copied both the above ZIP files to my SD card.
7. Restarted my phone in Bootloader mode; went for RECOVERY mode from there.
8. CWM Recovery Screen comes up - v5.8.3.1
9. WIPE Data/Factory Reset ---- WORKED WELL.
10. Wipe Cache Partition ---- WORKED WELL.
11. Wipe Dalvik Cache ---- WORKED WELL.
12. Install ZIP from SDCARD.
13. Chose respetive Pacman ROM ZIP file & INSTALLED. ---- WORKED WELL.
14. Rebooted phone.
15. Installed GAPPS ZIP file in similar manner. ---- WORKED WELL.
16. Rebooted phone and still stuck on same RECOVERY MODE screen stating that "This build is for developers only....".
I followed all instructions and applied them in correct order but my phone is now stuck completely.
I tried restoring my backed up ROM (I did made a Nandriod backup of my ROM before starting this process!) but after successful install when it reboots it lands on the same screen and get stuck again..painful!
I even tried FACTORY RESET option with HTC Bootloader..no benefit from that even!
So, I can sense this is a BIG trouble now! Right?? Can somebody please help me in this?
Thanks in anticipation guys!
Cam you get your phone in fastboot mode? Maybe you can than use an official HTC RUU. To let your phone start again.
Then you can try to install pacman rom, see if the problem still comes up

i think you should flash a kernel, which compatible with stock before you can restore back stock rom.

If yes from there move to recovery wipe everything and flash another ROM and kernel..+ if you want to move back to stock don't try using RUU method search for a stock ROM backup that has the same hboot and radio version as your phone...(if u are able to bootloader mode,there are 99% chances that you'll recover your phone by yourself..)

Mate, it sounds like your system is wiped, so the phone can't boot. Do you have any experience with fastboot and ADB commands?
If so, download a custom recovery (CWM, or TWRP, or Phil'z touch - recommended), place it in your fastboot folder, and type:
fastboot flash recovery downloadedrecoveryname.img in CMD window.
This wil enable you to use custom recovery.
Hopefully, you already have a custom ROM which you want to install. Extract boot.img from the ROM.zip, and place it in your fastboot older, and type:
fastboot flash boot boot.img in CMD window, followed by fastboot erase cache.
Then, reboot to your recovery, and flash ROM.zip (I guess you don't need any specific instructions for that).

Then, reboot to your recovery, and flash ROM.zip (I guess you don't need any specific instructions for that).

No, mate.
The ROM.zip goes to your sd card.
You can copy it through recovery, but mounting sd card.
In recovery you have all these options. Also, in ROM's thread (whichever you chose to flash) there is thorough instruction how to flash ROM.

Img is the correct format.
:good:
I believe you are capable of getting in bootloader and flashing through fastboot.

You are welcome, mate. I'm glad it worked for you. Enjoy your HOX, it's a great phone, and Viper is a great ROM.
I suggest you flash Alex V kernel. It will bring more nice features to your phone

Yeah 4EXT was great recovery miss it too from my Sensation, flash PHILZ v 5.x (not 6.x) and your touch will work
So I decided to root my HTC One X for the first time and install a custom ROM. I had unlocked the bootloader and added clockworkmod recovery, I had also created a back up. When I went to install Android Revolution HD I watched the video it provided and did everything exactly but what it didn't show was that I had to install the rom's zip file into my internal SD card before flashing the ROM and now it is stuck in a bootloop. I tried to fix it by clearing cashes, restoring, etc but now when I try to enter recovery through bootloader the phone just shuts off after it shows the splash screen. I was wondering if anyone would know how to excess the recovery through another means, I also tried used the "adb fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" but it says device not found.

Please make sure if ur phone is EndeavorU or Evita...
and reply.
You mean you have a telsus AT&T variant phone. Codename EVITA ? check your bootloader and what it says there. Entering the recovery should be fixed with
Fastboot erase cache
And don't put ADB in front. That's the wrong command.
And if you have the evita you are in the wrong forum. If that's the case you have to flash roms and recoverys from the HTC one XL forum !
I just remembered that Telus HOX is HOXL,
Here where u should search for ur ROMs and Recoveries:

I do have the evita but it said HTC One X on their site and when I checked the system information before I rooted it, I guess that might be why the ROM never worked. The main problem I have is that when I go into bootloader and select recovery the phone just shuts off so I can't access the recovery.
Well this is not the place to continue. Go to the xl forum and download a recovery from a link they provide there and try and continue the issues there
Cheers and good luck
