Hello, I've recently acquired the htc one x from a friend, i came from the sensation. I was trying to do some rom jumping today and put myself into a bit of a pickle.
what you alls need to know is that i accidently deleted the back ups. and now i have no roms to flash and none installed. I can get to twrp and mount to usb, but on the computer end it says i need to format disk before I can do anything. Since that's not really an option I seem to be stuck with no roms and no way to get a rom on it. I would like to put clean 5.0 back on and stick with that until i can better grasp the adb process on the one x. Any help would be appreciated, thank you -

you won't be stuck by deleting twrp, you can always flash any custom recovery from fastboot
with that i was able to get the rom onto it and install. however now I am in cleanrom 5.0 and I'm recieving .process and .phone failures and re boots. any idea how to proceed?

what are you talking about!? if you flash a rom (clean 5.0 in your case) you will also have to flash its boot.img to get it running!
at the end of the rom installation process it says it flashes the boot image for you.

never heard of an automatic flash of boot.img, it couldn't be possible cause you are not S-OFF
o ok. i've managed to flash it via http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1634786
unfortunately it didn't help that i got the phone and it had already been rooted, would have rather done it myself.
thank yo for all of your help!

!??!?!??!!??!? could you speak english please? i cannot help you if i do not understand your problem
ok, i'll take it from the top- turn on phone into bootloader. I can no longer get to recovery. I have tried flashing twrp to no avail. when i reset it will go to cleanrom and bootloop. I need to completely reset and re install recovery and rom. just can't get it working for some reason
fastboot erase cache
Go recovery and erase the cache and dalvik cache.
i would but now recovery goes to boot loop, even after i try and flash recovery (twrp and cwm)
fastboot erase cache
i have erased cashe in fastboot through one x tool kit and fastboot flasher. now it goes to the rom and the rom crashes and re boots. :/ how can i wipe and re install rom through fastboot?
also if i click recovery it goes to white htc screen with red dev warning text, then loops
I don't know. I don't know what your tool is doing.
Have you tried reflashing latest recovery? I recommend clockworkmod 5.8.4.0.
is that for gsm ? mine is att version, dk if that matters here
Oh FFS.
You're asking questions about a dual core snapdragon phone in a forum for a quad core Tegra3 based phone and you only wonder out loud now whether that matters?
Yes. Yes it does.
Now go ask questions about your phone in the forum for your phone before you break it.

If you have CWM's latest recovery then you should be able to flash a different custom rom, boot the phone into recovery and mount USB storage, copy over the new rom, unmount storage and format the system, data, cache and davik cache and then install rom..... you will need to flash the boot.img for the rom from fastboot before it will boot.
If you instructions on going back to stock then look at my sig or look in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1735930&page=3
Edit: Upon doing a quick search it seams that RUU version isn't available yet, only way for you currently is to flash a custom rom.

Thnx for the reply mate, however i am not on a custom firmware..infact i just rooted my phone with one click rooting method and post which the phone was rebooting everytime i was playing any music file.
So i went to the recovery and tried clearing cache/sdcard/system/etc but that didn't help, then i tried formatting the sdcard/system and post that my phone is stuck on the boot screen.
Since then..i've been trying many things, infact i also tried to flash the stock recovery...which happened successfully but sadly the phone did not boot. Man what to do?

You formatted the system partition, which is where all the files for your phone were located (so all the system files have been deleted..... you should have really taken a backup of the phone before doing anything to it); you need to flash the latest CWM recovery from HERE
and then download and install a custom ROM onto your phone as the RUU that you need is not yet available.

for first link: Thats only the "Over The Air" update file, you still need a working stock rom'd phone to flash it.
for second link: That should be fine to install onto your phone once you have the CWM Recovery flashed onto your phone, remember to also flash over the boot.img file before you try and boot the phone.... otherwise it just wont boot

Hi all, I'm a really novice rooter with the HTC One M7 for Verizon.
I know I'm S-Off with HBOOT 1.56,
and all of a sudden my phone just automatically boots into CWM Recovery.
I've tried loading old recoveries, old zip files, and the response is always
"Can't mount sdcard."
Again, although I'm rooted, I'm pretty much a novice.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hoping I didnt' lose this phone.

Bricking your phone is near impossible nowadays. I wouldn't fret too much.
Are you sure that you're flashing ROMs and recoveries meant for the m7vzw (HTC One for Verizon) and not just the regular m7 (normal HTC One)?
If you're sure that you're flashing for m7zw, have you tried flashing a new recovery through fastboot? i.e.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery newrecoveryname.img
I would ruu. Then set up your favorite recovery and Rom. Start fresh. It will wipe everything so back up your files.

I'm running CWM recovery, which says that I can't mount the SD Card.
I then tried what you suggested, installed twrp recovery, and now I'm stuck in a reboot loop with the htc screen.
I'm not sure what to do now.

Have you tried RUUing like what Brymaster suggested?
After installing twrp did you flash a Rom. Because if there is no Rom loaded it will just bootloop

I'm trying to flash a rom but can't get adb to recognize my phone in sideload mode. Feeling really stuck at this point
You have a otg cable to put a Rom on a stick then flash that way. So no Rom on your phone at all?

Did you try this thread?
Please help:
I rooted my new HTC One M8 using Hansoons All-In-One Toolkit and was able to success unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP recovery.
I can now enter bootloader and boot into recovery.
The problem is that I cannot seem to flash a ROM..any ROM and have tried 3 different ROMs off the forum but all fail or quickly go back to the main recovery page.
I think I have wiped all the data off my phones internal memory in my desperate efforts to get something flashed so that I can use my phone to make calls.
Where do I go from here? I have tried searching the forum for similar threads but seem to be getting myself even more confused.
Thanks in advance if you take the time to help me. In my case a 'little knowledge has been a dangerous thing'

fastboot erase cache
Then flash the latest TWRP using fastboot. If you used the toolkit to flash TWRP, the toolkit has not been updated in a long time, so the old TWRP versions might be the problem. Or just a bad TWRP install.
Thanks Red - that sorted it out and I now have Cyanogen installed and running perfectly.
Thank you so so much for you advice and timely help.
Bob :good:
Awesome. And you're very welcome.
Never fails to amaze me how many recovery or flashing problems can be solved by simply flushing cache and re-installing recovery.

BTW, there is a button for that.
My device decided to randomly encrypt itself after using the CM12 port that is available. How this happened is beyond me. Anyhow, I tried to do a factory reset... Nothing would mount because the device was encrypted. So, I thought it would be a great idea to flash a different recovery. By now, I have flashed over 6 recovery images (all different) even the stock. Fastboot says that the transfer went through successfully only to find when I try to boot into recovery, it boots into fastboot instead.
Yes the device is unlocked.
I don't know if there is a ROM on it, but when i try to start it normally, it wont boot past the splash screen (before the boot animation)
Please help, as this is the only phone I am stuck with for a long time
Here's a thread with people that have a similar problem. There are some suggestions of what to do in there, but personally none of them worked for me. I ended up having to send it back to Amazon.

Never factory restore when you have a Custom ROM as it isn't made to reset with the devices stock hardware and causes things to go crazy.
Always use a nandroid of the original system with root, then unroot, then factory restore from that.
Also. YouTube search - HTC Desire 816 root unlock bootloader.
Use the .exe recovery from that video in fastboot at least twice without exiting fastboot or rebooting.
Now try the recovery.

When you were on the stock recovery, could you wipe partitions?
Also what model do you have?
After I unlocked bootloader on my device, I did backup of all partitions (boot, data, recovery, system, system image) via TWRP first. Later, I rooted the phone and started removing bloatware. But I missclicked some important system app(s) and removed them along with bloat, making my ROM lose some of its functions. I thought it was no big deal as I did a full backup. So I rebooted into TWRP, wiped all partitions and then restored them. Since then I'm always stuck at HTC boot logo. I tried wipe and restore many, many times again, but I always get stuck at boot logo...
I can reboot into download mode, bootloader or TWRP with no problems. When in download mode, I can also see device on my PC via fastboot. My device is S-ON. Can someone someone tell me what did I do wrong / give me an advice to fix this?
