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
I used this command: fastboot flash recovery <Name Of the downloaded file>.img
But I'm still stuck at the boot screen

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, 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.
My bootloader now says RELOCKED, how can I unlock it again? (I'm really sorry about this)

Use the token HTC sent you when u unlocked it. and typing in cmd the fastboot unlock command.
Okay done that, thanks a lot!
I'm now looking in the advanced options of CWM, I can see the option "Reboot Recovery" but no "Reboot Bootloader"?

Was the boot.img file flashed successfully?
Yes it said so...
EDIT: Not sure if this is an issue with the ROM of if I'm doing something wrong? I went to the "mounts and storage" section of CWM and clicked all the format options accept sdcard. I then installed ROM, went into fastboot and flashed boot.img, it said OKAY twice then finished. Still stuck at black, backlit screen after HTC screen. ROM is JellyTime by randomblame.

that is weird. Try flashing a different rom then and see what happens. flash the boot image first and then the the rom in recovery.

I've just tried flashing the boot image first and then installing JellyTime AOKP, same black screen. Maybe I should try a Gingerbread ROM? That's the Operating system I had before, is there a known working ROM?

EDIT: well, don't I feel stupid. I knew full well from reading that your phone wasn't working, but posted a link to an app. Just not paying attention. Sorry about that.
VBQ24,
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)
The version of the RUU should be equal or greater to the version that came with your phone. Try this v3.13
However, if you want to flash a custom ROM:
You need to downgrade your device first, get s-off and root, then flash a custom ROM
You need to use the Advanced Ace Hack Kit (AAHK), get it from here.
Make sure to read the manual (called 'effin manual) word by word. There are instructions on how to downgrade.
Follow the instructions, and if you have any questions, ask here.
Hello.
I try root my htc One X international, i unlock bootloader, then i use r3 endeavour insecurebootandroot , and in a middle of rooting cmd on my computer just shut off, and phone stuck on htc logo, since then i can't turn it on , all i can do is use power and volume down, i try factory reset, didn't help, phone still stuck on htc logo, when i try recovery, i get phone lay on back, with red triangle on it.
please, can anyone know how to fix it ? htc always was pain in ass to root, but this time i stuck. Many threads are similar, but mostly people stuck after they already rooted and flash rom, i don't go that far, not sure phone is even rooted, but bootloader is unlocked so far.

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).

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.

Hi
Problem is that I can't enter recovery. I am able to enter fastboot menu, but when I'm choosing recovery mode, phone like restarts and goes again to fastboot menu...no recovery mode or dead bot with error comes. Below is blue writing "continue the fastboot process".
This happened after I tried to install twrp through twrp manager...it was installing twrp and said that install succesful.
Also tried fastboot command "fastboot clear cache", but nothing.
So, you didn't unlock the bootloader and removed your recovery...
1st thing, go to bootloader mode, download the recovery for your version of Android, eg 2.20.40.168, and flash through fastboot on the PC.
Put phone in fastboot (bootloader mode) - I'm assuming of course you have the latest Intel drivers and the flashing tools - and through the CMD interface (agasin flashing tools) type "fastboot devices". If you did it right then you'll see you serial number...
Now, in the same folder as the fastboot tools, have the recovery.img ready and type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img".
You should now have recovery again...
2. If you haven't done so, lookup how to unlock bootloader before trying this again and do it. Make sure everything goes as it says, particularly important the splashscreen that says ASUS turns white, and you should be ok to flash TWRP though I use PC as I find everything seems to work.
Yes, it was my mistake, i didn't unlock bootloader and tried to flash twrp.
Now i can Go into fastboot and phone connects to pc easily.
But so far i didn't found recovery image for 2.20.40.174 fw.
But can you confirm that it's possible now to use one click bootloader unlock and then flash twrp? Without flashing stock recovery.

You can use This Apk to unlock bootloader.
Once unlocked it will reboot and show white splashscree,then you are ready to use twrp.
Try it
If you go to the pre-rooted rom thread you can download ALL the img files - rom, recovery,boot and droidboot.img. I'm pretty sure 174 was there in the Mega link at the top of the 1st post...
Just download the recovery.img as that's what you need...
Ok, thanks to all. Now bootloader is unlocked, twrp installed and installed rom blisspop. Great phone when there is no bloatware.

Cool, glad you got your toy working again...
Same issue as sir Jaguar
Already installed .img trough adb says succesfully installed
When i go to recovery mode no deadbot no white splash screen load.
Tried the asus unlocking tool provided by the asus and the same link provided by sir Ultima still no good results.
Im already at 174 fw
Tried the twrp apk
Tried flashify
Tried diffrent kind of .img
Tried to re install the image using ADB
Still no good results
I think its the bootloader that has the problem.
Guys plz help tnx
thank you for your hard work!! love it
you can try to reflash the corresponding version of stock recovery.img

Hi there, I have a similar problem i think. I have unlocked bootloader.
My problem is PC won't regonize my device. I installed the driver for intel asus adb but it would says "error: device not found" for fastboot cmd.
so now i m stuck in fastboot and can't do anything ...
Hi, Also have my phone on the same conditions but If I try to flash anything I got permission Denied.
Please help me
good day,
i have an HTC 10 factory unlocked, i had the bootloader unlocked through HTCdev. i then flashed the latest TWRP recovery, attempting to enter revovery....i cant. i din't get the triangle thingy what so ever,it jus displayed the screen like when you're about to enter bootloader mode. then it would restart after that, almost brick it cuz it didn't wanna boot at one pointing time :crying::crying: .i've rooted m7,8 & 9 and never came across something like that. i can't even flash over new rom cuz cmd is given error: can't open recovery. before i attempted bootloader unlock via htcdev, i tried sunshine jus to avoid the hassle and when it was attempting to give me temproot, it failed....3 times so that was useless,leaving me to go manual. any help on this?
Wrong thread. But sounds like recovery didn't flash. Make sure your flashing to recovery partition. Search thread for toolkit, will make it easier.
Fastboot flash recovery recovery. IMG @download mode
I used this tool to safely and successfully install ROM and Recovery.. Maybe you could try..
Thanks to the developer..

Not sure if this helps, but I get the same type of issue when booting to recovery, except my phone is bone stock.
What works for me is right after the symbol comes up, press Vol Up and Power at the same time. If I time it right, recovery mode comes up. Not sure if it will work with TWRP, since I've never used it.
