Originally, my one x was o2 branded, so I unlocked the bootloader and rooted, I installed a custom Rom and everything was ok. Last night I used a method I found on xda of going back to stock (because there isn't an ruu yet) I flashed the latest cwm, flashed boot.img, after this my bootloader says...
sd checking....
Failed to open USB master mode
(preload) Failed to open USB master mode
loading Htcupdatezipimg....
Failed to open USB master mode
Plug off device.
So I'm stuck on pretty old software. I can't flash a new recovery, boot.img or do anything with adb in fastboot.
I have reinstalled drivers, factory reset, I even installed another Rom, none of which changed my fastboot problem.
Any help would really be appreciated

Are you sure you're in fastboot?
I get that message all the time when in HBOOT. I then select fastboot off the bootloader menu, press power to get in to fastboot and I'm good to go with flashing what I want.
And when you're in fastboot, you don't use adb commands, you use fastboot commands via cmd/terminal.

hello everyone.
am trying to flash a new rom to my device. i followed all the intructions till the one that tells me to flash the boot.img through the usb fastboot.
but my pc cant recognize my one x?
when i choose "Hboot" it says "failed to checj usb master and something like that!
Did you install the HTC drivers on your computer? If you download and install the latest version of HTC Sync it should work.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
and if you have the drivers already, try to disable your antivirus and/or firewall before plugging your device. (it happened to me, my antivirus had too strict settings, preventing HTC drivers to install correctly, and also preventing adb to see my device plugged.)
I did download the drivers but nothing happened.
just a one more question. Is it okay to install the boot.img before the ROM?

Yes, as long as you go back to recovery right after flashing the boot image and install the ROM, otherwise your phone MAY not boot up (it should boot up and work, but it's a digital device)...
try unplugging...and then selecting HBOOT.....it might not give that error ...
still i cant load the fricking boot.img!!!!!!!
everytime i try it says "cannot load boot.img"
any help
hi
It seems like its a problem wiith the path from which u run the fastboot command.....what is the location of boot.img in ur system? is it in the same folder as fastboot.exe? and while giving the command 'fastboot flash....' what is the location that the command prompt is showing?(the working directory)
Once in the bootloader you must select FASTBOOT first and then connect via usb and type in fastboot devices. If it returns a number you're connected. That, may fix your issue.

Hello,
I deleted the system and cache for installing another ROM.
But the ROM doesn't work (can't install it..), so my OS is deleted.
I can't connect the SD to my pc, because the memory is build-in.
How can I connet my SD to my pc, to put another .zip on it?
I don't know if it is allowed, but the one who can help me get 15 euro's (about 20 dollars) by Paypal.
It's urgent.
Greetings.
Assuming you are a one x user, and have unlocked your bootloader and installed a custom recovery, upgrade your recovery to cwm 5.8.4.0 with using the following command from your pc where fastboot files and cwm recovery.img files are
Fastboot flash recovery nameofrecoveryfile.img
Then boot into bootloader, go to hboot, select recovery. Once in there, go to mounts and storage. There you can mount your sdcard.
Clicking thanks button is more than enough.

I got into the same situation but my recovery was also wiped out and I've tried using ADB to push recovery image in and it says successful but when I try rebooting into recovery from hoot, it just went into the quietly brilliant screen. Any help or tips would be appreciated.

today I got my new One X.
I tried to unlock the bootloader and flash a CWM Recovery which worked brilliantly thanks to this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592922
then I recognised it's not rooted yet so I first tried too root with SuperSU from Google Play Store. Didn't work for me so I followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1577671 for the mac with transferring the files over the terminal. After I tried to reboot I'm stuck right now on the "hTC quietly brilliant" screen.
I need help to recover my HOX pleeeeeease!!!!
So you don't have a backup do you?
It said in the thread that the insecure boot method only works on some super old software versions, and now as a result, you have an incorrect boot.img on your device.
Please confirm that you have the stock ROM.
Do following fastboot command:
"fastboot getvar version-main"
And post result here.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
I have no backup. So how do I root with a MacBook on Android 4.1.1?
result: version-main: 3.14.401.31
You need to reflash the stock boot.img.
Since you have no backup you could try to grab it from a backup made by someone else.
Download the stock nandroid backup for your main version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140
Once you have downloaded it, you have to scavenge the boot.img.
Put it to the same folder on your mac where you have the fastboot files.
Then, with your phone connected in fastboot mode, flash it by typing:
"fastboot flash boot boot.img"
Followed by "fastboot erase cache"
Once you can boot your phone I will give further instructions regarding rooting.

whats the most intelligent way to push the zip on the sdcard folder with a MacBook?
Connect usb cable and in recovery: mounts and storage -> mount usb storage.
Why not do it while booted in os?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
in booted OS I don't see an external drive which is normally shown when device is connected via USB. Don't know whats the deal with a Mac OS and hTC phones
You can push it via adb: adb push sourcepath /sdcard/
Insert the path of the downloaded zip to sourcepath.
If you can't push it just go to this thread on your phone and download it directly.

If the answer to this is out there I am sorry TRUST me I have been searching. I have a phone a customer brought to me he tried flashing a rom and forgot to flash the boot.img, now it just sits at the HTC splash screen. I can see the phone when it is off but can't push any files to it via adb. When the phone is on no matter where I am in the recovery I can not see the phone in adb. If I leave it on the splash screen I am also not able to see it. PLEASE HELP

Keep the power button + volume down button pressed as long as it takes to see the bootloader, plug the phone into the pc (and use the original usb cable and a usb 2.0 port)
Then try to fastboot it
Fastboot devices (if a serial pops up its oke)
You don't really need adb to fix a hox !

I am waiting for the phone to grab a charge again it died overnight. I have done what you mentioned but I was using a USB 3 port. Will that make that much of a difference? I just need to be able to get files on it so I can get it back for my customer.
Thanks Again

AK Repair Guy
Yes in some occasions it makes a very huge difference, usb 3 ports seems to have a bad relation with fastboot.
And files to the phone can be copied via the latest custom recoverys, mount it as a usb storage device inside it and it will pop up as a diskdrive on the pc !

Have found myself in a similar position, all the following assumes you're using windows as you desktop OS...
To double check your recovery is broken, get into fastboot mode (power on while holding volume down), use volume down to highlight "hboot" then press the power button to select. Then press volume down to highlight "recovery" and press power button to select. If that works, then recovery is fine, just go ahead as you normally would to recover the system.
If you can't get into recovery then you have a slight problem.
Since you can get the device into fastboot mode, the priority is to get it to talk to your PC. Get the device into fastboot (power on while holding the volume down button). Once you're into fastboot, plug in the USB cable and verify the connection to your device using the following command :
Code:
fastboot devices
This should show you a single entry for your device. If it doesn't show anything, then unplug the device, download the naked driver pack (available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161769) and unpack it into a sensible location. Plug the device back in, if it can't install software automatically or nothing appears you may have to use device manager to update the driver for the device. Find its entry in the device tree (it will probably be listed as an unknown device), RMB on its entry in device tree then select "Update Driver Software..." from the menu that appears, tell it to search automatically then point it at the location where you unpacked the naked driver pack. That should sort out any misconceptions windows has about not being able to talk to the phone.
Once you have fastboot access, you can reflash clockworkmod. You can obtain the latest version here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594819
flash from fastboot using the command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
Once flashed, unplug the usb cable.
Use the volume up and down to highlight "hboot" on the fastboot menu, then press the power button to select. Once in the hboot menu, scroll to the "recovery" menu item and press power again to select. You should find yourself in familiar territory at this point.
hth
EDIT : Sorry, it's nearly 2am here, I'm very tired and I've just re-read your initial post. If you've flashed a custom kernel then you MUST have fastboot access (or it's subsequently broken). Download your ROM (if you haven't already got a copy on your PC) and extract boot.img from it. Get into fastboot mode (vol down + power on) and plug into your PC. Do the following :
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
Unplug USB cable, use vol up/ down to highlight "REBOOT" then press power to select.If you get stuck in a bootloop, you can try going into recovery via fastboot (select "hboot" from the fastboot menu then "recovery" from the hboot menu), then select "erase cache", then go to "advanced" and "wipe dalvik cache". Then go back and reboot the device. See if that helps. If not, then go back to recovery using the aforementioned method and re-install your rom, then erase cache and wipe dalvik cache.
