[Q] Problem with installing clockwork - HTC One X

Hi,
I want to have a custom Rom on my htc one x but I have problems with installing clockwork. After entering '' fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru'' I get an error: cannot 'load recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru'. I followed all the steps but everytime I get that. Anyone know what I should do to install it.

Easier to rename the img file to CWM
Place it in the folder that contains fastboot, adb etc within android sdk on your pc.
Put phone into fastboot usb
Open cmd on pc
CD C:/Android-SDK/platform-tools
fastboot flash recovery CWM.img
(you need an unlocked bootloader obviously to do all of the above)

You have forgotten to use the extension .img in the filename.

I did try with extension .img I received same error

Are you using international one x with tegra 3 cpu? If so, try renaming the img file to something like cwm.img as chris suggests and try flashing. Phone must be in fastboot mode showing fastboot usb on the display. You can use fastboot devices command to make sure phone is recognized.

I changed filename to CWM.img and replaced it in the map platform-tools
This is the location: C:\Users\Hosseini\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools
What should I type into the cmd now.
Many thnx

Bloody he'll,
Where have you installed android sdk to on your pc?
Default is to the root of C:/ (c:/android-sdk)
But some people choose to install within program files
-----
I'd recommend re-installing android sdk, because your location is just a big pain in the buttcheeks.
Basically, the first command after your phone is in fastboot usb is the location of this folder,
CD C:/location of platform-tools folder
The second command is
fastboot flash recovery imagename.img
(yes, you have to put img on the end)
---
If you chose to keep the location of your Android sdk, the first command must include the full path of your platform tools folder (which inside has your cwm img)
Your choice

[Q] how to flash via fastboot?

how do a flash a img file via fastboot, and yes i got S-off.
thanks in advance
You put your device in fastboot, connect it to your pc, open a command prompt, navigate to the tools folder, and use the fastboot flash command, for example to flash a radio, use the command, fastboot flash radio *****.img. also for ease copy the .img file to the tools folder in you android sdk.

it's a recovery? RA recover 2.0.0
No One knows?
fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img
Or
From terminal on phone you can type
su
flash-image recovery /sdcard/recoveryname.img
Both of these answers are in the amon recovery thread. If you looked you could have had your answer days ago...
Also, if you didn't know what you're doing what was the point in going S-OFF?? To look cool???...

Fastboot problem

Hi all
I have a problem with fastboot. I installed the drivers and sdk files. Stored the sdk files in my C:/.. I tried to flash oxygen hboot but it gave a error like: can't load (the name of the img file)
Anyone can help?

1. Have you got adb downloaded as it's not in the SDK be default
2. Is the IMG file in the same folder as adb?

Not true, its in by default.
Make sure the image is in the same folder as fastboot.exe.
adb is not in the SDK v8 pack, you have to then download the Tools pack. Fastboot is, though
First off al thank you for ur reactions
Yes im s off.. the img file is in de sdk folder. Can someone give me the link where I can download adb?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Start SDK Manager (in your start menu) and then download the SDK Tools from the available packages. Thing is, you don't need adb to do what you want to do. Just put the IMG file in the android-sdk-windows/tools/ folder (or where ever you have it installed) and then do the following:
(from AlphaRev website)
1) Nandroid backup in recovery.
2) Verify the MD5SUM of the file you downloaded against the one in the table.
3) Flash HBOOT with your phone in fastboot mode (Back+POWER) -> 'fastboot flash hboot bravo_alphaspl.img' (change into the correct filename for the HBOOT you downloaded)
4) 'Fastboot reboot-bootloader'
5) 'Fastboot erase cache'
6) Boot recovery, wipe everything and restore.

if you cant do that then i would advise you back off from it
flashing a hboot wrongly will kill it perminently its not like a bootloop, it will be dead completely with no life. only htc can fix it and usually means a new mainboard
you must always check the md5 against the one on the website as if its wrong it will brick your device. download winmd5 from the net as its free
step 3 is pretty self explanitory, if thats not working its likely you are booted into hboot/bootloader not fastboot (you must select fastboot from hboot)
EDIT: SOLVEDDDD!

[Q]Now what?

So, I have succesfuly gained the AlphaRev HBOOT (thanks guys!).
But...now what?
How do I root and install CM7?
see attn1's guide with complete steps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1122694
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I will also try to explain it.
Just download the wildfire buzz recovery from the above link (attn1's guide). Then extract the recovery img file. Rename it to "recovery.img" for simplifying the method. Then u need the working android sdk (along with google usb driver installed. Better just install HTC DRIVER). Keep this img file in the fastboot.exe folder of sdk. Then connect wildfire to pc via usb cable in fastboot mode. Then open command prompt and CD into the fastboot.exe folder. Then enter the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img where the file name is recovery.img as said above. That's all u now have the clockworkmod custom recovery.
Then if u want to use the same stock 2.2.1 rom , then u can root it by downloading "su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip" from the same above attn1's guide. U should put that zip file in the memory card and install it from the custom recovery.....(install zip from sdcard > Choose zip from sdcard). That's all. Then install rom manager from market. This step is completely not necessary if u want to flash a custom rom. And custom rom can be flashed from the custom recovery with the same method...(install zip from sdcard > Choose zip from sdcard).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actualy, I figured it out on my own, but thanks for helping
Okej, please can someone explain EVERYTHING. And i mean EVERYTHING, from step to step. My english isn't the best and i haven't got a masters exam in rooting.
"Then open command prompt and CD into the fastboot.exe folder."
..."and cd into the fastboot.exe folder?" Please explain this. CD= command?
And how do i do that? Gaaah, im getting crazy! And how to install the HTC Android USB Driver for Microsoft PC when all i get is some crazy files?

CD = change directory in command prompt. Pls make a google search or see this.
Assuming the path of fastboot.exe in C:\android-sdk-windows\tools of ur computer. And assuming that u have already downloaded android sdk.
Then type the command cd.. and press enter untill u get to root of c drive
Then type the command cd android-sdk-windows and press enter
Then type the command cd tools and press enter.
Then u can use the fastboot flash recovery recovery.img command. And remember to keep the recovery.img in the path C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
"Then u can use the fastboot flash recovery recovery.img command."
after this says waiting for device....any suggestions? tx

U need the google usb driver. Find hboot drivers and install. Try to install htc driver (simple method) which will be 13MB in size.
If u get that even after doing so, then just connect wildfire in fastboot mode and wait for sometime till it detects the phone. Something like within 2min.

TUT SDK and Fastboot commands

Hi together!
Since this is a topic where people ask regularly, I try to make a little TUT.
I hope it is helpful.
I am a noob myself, so please don't go on me
Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong or if I missed some important stuff.
What you need:
1.
SDK Tool (type in your browser: developer.android.com/sdk/index.html)
Once you are on that page, download the package and install it.
2.
after the install process has finished, you have to install some packages.
Important is the platform-tools package (there you find the most important commands)
3.
Locate the folder on the harddisk of your PC
4.a)
Push the Windows(Start) Buttom and type: cmd
This opens the command prompt
Now get into the root of the android folder (e.g. cd.. until you get into root of your harddisk)
(on my PC, it looks like this:
cd android
cd platform-tools)
4.b)
Just one thing to make it a little easier to come into the right folder:
Open the folder with the fastbootfiles in a window.
Go to command line and type cmd and the cmd.exe will be shown in the menu.
Drag & Drop the cmd.exe into the opened fastboot folder.
When you now open this cmd, it shows the right folder at the start and you can easily type the commands without navigation through folders.
credits go to Neo XL
5.
Your phone has to be in fastboot-USB mode and connected to PC in order to understand the commands
6.
Once you are in platform-tools folder, you can type commands
Most common commands are:
fastboot erase cache (sometimes helps if phone is in HTC bootloop)
fastboot flash boot (name of boot image / e.g. boot_1.2.3.img) (this is, like the name says, to flash a boot image)
fastboot flash recovery (name of recovery.img
fastboot oem lock ( to relock your phone, in case you have or want to flash a RUU)
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin (to unlock again, if you already got the unlock key from HTCDev)
Flash firmware.zip using following terminal commands:
Please rename first downloaded .zip package to firmware.zip
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
This is almost obsolete, since we have the new Recovery 5.8.3.1 with Mount USB, but it is still good to know
to push ROM to SD card, if you were running superwipe without copying the rom file onto sd
1. You need recovery.img in your fastboot directory
2. Go into bootloader and connect phone
3. Then use: "fastboot boot recovery.img" (thus booting your image from pc and not the installed recovery).
4. When in recovery, you can use the adb commands.
5. You can try with "adb devices" which should show you serial of phone.
6. command: adb push rom_rom.zip /sdcard
credits to broncogr for finding that adb works if you use fastboot boot command and to Jotha for helping me out!
Or try following:
Copy rom to your adb-directory on PC
Switch OFF phone
Connect phone to PC
Wait until you hear the "USB-Connect"-sound on PC
Go into command window in adb-directory
Type "adb push rom.zip /sdcard/"
(where rom.zip is name of rom-file)
pushing is rather slow so it will take a while. Eventually you get an "OK". Then you can go into recovery and flash it.
Credits go to Jotha

http://dottech.org/tipsntricks/21534/how-to-install-adb-and-fastboot-on-your-windows-computer-for-use-with-your-android-phone/
You have to copy the Boot.img into the folder, where fastboot-, adb commands are situated (c:/andoid/platform-tools)
Then Open cmd. Go to platform-tools folder and from there it should work.

Thanx man, but is fixed now, I did this by follow the instr. in page from my last post, and goes perfect. I just flashed new rom with 1.8 base and iam now on the bright side of life.
PS sorry for my english
@OP, last time I tried fastboot boot command it gave me device not found message(no problem when fastboot flash). What's the correct approach to make it work? I recently updated to 1.28 and I want to stay in stock for the mean time.

You can add the adb and fastboot directory path to the environment path in windows settings. You can then use adb and fastboot outside of the platform tools directory, but still in command prompt of course

In point 3, it is not supposed to boot into recovery. Its for booting your recovery.img (e.g. recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img ) from PC. After this step you will automatically boot into Recovery. From there you can use adb commands.
Did you try "adb devices"?
I tried it myself and it works!

Rom should be on root of Sd.
If this is not working, you can try to use the command while phone is powered off. I am not a dev, but I read something like that:
"Switch off your phone, connect to pc, wait until it is detected by windows and use: adb push nameofrom.zip /sdcard/" thats what Jotha told someone on ARHD Thread.
Try that and tell us if it worked.

Go in order you'll be fine.
Root, which you already did.
Install the boot loader, just extract the files and run the script with it connected on USB.
After that, and only after, install a recovery and you can turn install custom ROMs. That guide covers it all if you spend some time reading before jumping in, always a good idea.

Debugging should be on.
Copy your chosen recovery.img to the folder where your adb.exe is, if its in the rooting folder, put them there.
For ease I would make a folder called root so its like this
c:\root
Place the adb and fastboot files in there with the recovery image.
Open a command prompt and type
cd c:\root
Type
adb devices
Should now work properly and list some numbers
Then do
adb reboot bootloader
Then
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Where recovery.img is the name of the recovery image you downloaded and copied to the folder with adb.exe

Once again, the folder that has adb.exe is where you need to be working from. Open a command prompt, cd to wherever that folder is, then do the commands. You can also hold shift and right click in the folder and choose command prompt to open it right there.

Your show extensions are off. The one that opened the prompt was it. Its not run directly, its used in a command prompt with a command. Open your prompt there or change its directory to where it is, then carry on with the instructions.
I take it all your other rooted devices had one click setups, this is a very basic device to work on, it just doesn't have a program doing it for you. This seriously should take as long as it took me to write this post to do from start to finish.

ok figured it out now i put all files together now..should i leave it in my documents or put it in my c folder..
is it power+vol up or down
I think its power on with the volume closest to the power button for fast boot, its been awhile though it may be the other one.
