Hey guys , am having a problem with my htc one x recovery ,
as i was going with the rooting of my phone i got stack at 1 point where i needed to use recovery so i could access the zipped file in my htc (i have already unlocked the bootloader). So when am getting to the point of using recovery from the fastboot screen with the color letters (using volume up and the power button to navigate as always) the htc message pops up trying to load the recovery and then a black screen pops up with the icon of the mobile and a green cyrcle, and after a few secs of loading theres another icon with a red triangle and a exclamation mark. at that point the phone stacks with that icon and i can do nothing. after a couple of mins the phone just restarts by itself and am back on the normal htc interface...
In the video i saw after he used recovery none of those icons where seen and it loaded up the default directories of the phone, as i was searching in net i saw a prob like that and the solution was to erase the fastboot erase cache, already erased the cahe but the problem is still there, if any solutions for that would be greatly apreciated !
Did u flash a custom recovery ? Latest is cwm 5.8.4.0
The one u are describing is the stock one.

The recovery you described is HTC's stock recovery ... Go to here - > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594819 < - and download the first link and put it into your phone sdcard then reboot into fastboot and fastboot flash recovery <recovery name>.img and you're good to go for flashing ROMs

Wrong mate....
Download the cwm recovery and put in the fastboot folder on PC.
And also give this command before AND after flashing the recovery.
Fastboot erase cache
And why giving the answer again, i already gave the answer, and get your facts right ! This is the second post i see around with a small error in it

no need to put the recovery.img in the fastboot folder:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery path/to/recovery.img
Very true .... but to keep it more clear (just like putting the boot.img in the fastboot folder,.like most tut's say) i advice to do it straight from the fastboot folder, so in that way the commands stay the same.......if you get my point

Have you flashed boot.img?
I think it's better to read more rather then watching half baken video's (what you did not know) it's better to follow the tutorials here ! :thumbup:
And yes like said before flash the boot.img
Extract it from the rom.zip and place it in fastboot folder
Phone in fastboot USB mode and do the following command
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Just like you did with the recovery
Reboot !
Verstuurd van mijn HTC One X
ok.. so i just searched a bit in this forum and the tutorials here as u said , and y after i saw in here am not going to trust any videos and just follow the forum.. i missed a couple of steps first i dont know what CID i have , which as i've seen its very important ( any ways to check now that i cant use my htc and am stack in bootloader?) 2nd i ve seen i need to have the hboot 1.31 for it to work and currently i don't. thought that maybe that would fix it and downloaded it and as the steps told me
1.i relocked the bootloader
2.downloaded the firmware.zip from the forum instructions
3.entered succesfully the command "fastboot oem rebootRUU"
4. { (4) In order to flash new hboot write "fastboot flash zip firmware.zip" } and here am stuck cause when am typing the command am getting FAILED <remote : not allowed) and in that step i saw a vid again (i know...but am desperate) which he said if that happens u should use the
adb reboot oem-78. which i did and after it opens deamon it says error : device not found
and also u said:
And yes like said before flash the boot.img
Extract it from the rom.zip and place it in fastboot folder
i know i might be asking for much but plz put some more detail form me as am somewhat new to this and i might not understand some of the ways
for example which one is the boot img? the hboot 1.31 ? and what do u mean extract from rom.zip ( the custom rom maximus v6 i downloaded u mean?) and i really apreciate ur time guys ur helping me much hope i can still use my phone after ur instructions atm i crying over a my dead phone help me bring it back ( if its possible ;/)
boot.img is insite the custom rom zip file open the zip file with totalcommander take out the boot.img an fastboot it
so u mean the boot.img inside the zipped folder from the instuctions named firmware ? the one that has the hboot 1.31? cause if thats the case i tried and i unzipped it put it on the fastboot folder and tried to run the commands like this
fastboot flash boot boot.img
what i got is
sending 'boot' <5260 KB>....
OKAY [ 0.6s ]
writing ' boot'....
FAILED < remote : not allowed>
finished . total time : 0.9s
so that got me curious and i typed adb devices to check on cmd ... but my phone is not listed there o-o
while i was doing this the phone is on fastboot menu with the cable attached and says FASTBOOT USB.
any ideas? also how could i manage to come so far if the phone couldnt be reached in the first place (something changed meanwhile?) any ideas?

you have to unlock it in order to upgrade th firmware but when the firmware is flashed you have to unlock it again, because with the bootloader locked you can't use fastboot to flash anything....

Ok, so basically, I formatted everything on the phone like a douche, and its stuck on the HTC Quite Brilliant screen.
I tried using fastboot and adb, but it shows "device not found" even though the drivers are saved.
Any clue?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
you need to flash a stock RUU. im not sure what development is like for the one X, id assume not alot yet. you need to either flash a fully stock RUU or someones backup. i feel for you bro, ive never fully bricked a phone but i DID format every partition on my intercept once, and i fixed it through a custom recovery flash of a stock rom, samsung is nothing like htc though....

Thanks for your help though guys, its really appreciated.
Try clearing the cache and then doing that again.
"fastboot erase cache"
then do your recovery.
Just tried that, still no luck.

Have you try flashing RUU when fastboot boot recovery.img seems not working for you ?
Do you have any instructions I can follow?
(Even though some people may not agree with this, but this will bring no harm and it is noob-proof) do this:
1- flash a stock recovery.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
2- flash a stock boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
3- re-lock bootloader
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
4- flash RUU
You must have the official RUU for your phone, stock recovery and stock boot.img.
Do you have the RUU ? You need to know which is the right RUU for you. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543604 to look for one.
I will try this when I get home
Whether this works or not I would love your PayPal email address please.
Just for your effort in trying to help me so much I just HAVE to pay you back.

Have you manage to solve your problem ?
You don't have to pay me back, I'm always happy when I manage to help others.
And because of some request for my PayPal email address, first time after four years with XDA, I put the "donate to me" box, but you don't have to
EDIT: Are you still on stock ROM before the brick ? If yes, you don't have to do all the step, just flash RUU.

Gotcha, didnt even see the donate box
When I tried RUU'ing, it gave me an error.
Error 131: customer ID error
And I was on a stock rooted ROM before the brick.
Which RUU are you trying to use? And which software version were you on when you bought it?
I was trying to using this one:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_H3G_UK_1.26.771.2_Radio_1.1204.90.13H_release_251403_signed.exe 601.21 MB 1 week, 3 days ago
and see that I dont know, I literally had the phone in my hand for 5 minutes.. Just bought it off of a member here and opened the box to format and wipe data on everything, as I do to every phone, but I didnt know you couldnt mount sd in recovery on this phone yet
Can you go to bootloader and see what is your radio version ? And the hboot too.
Maybe it helps to determine which RUU is the correct one for you
Person I bought it from said he bought it from Expanys USA.
The HBOOT version is 0.43.0000
RADIO: 1.1204.90.13H
BTW, I flashed the stock recovery and relocked the bootloader but i didnt flash the boot.img
I have no idea where to get it from.
hey dude whats your cid for your Phone?
U have to use the correkt ruu matching your cid, or else ruu installation will be abortet!
how to check the cid:
in fastboot whith usb type "fastboot getvar cid"
if this is not working try this:
enter "adb shell"
now enter "getprop ro.cid"
android sdk should be installed to make use of the second option getting the cid.
After that you should search for the correct ruu matching this cid.
If u got it, first thing to do ist installing stock recovery. U cant get the recovery here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24777223&postcount=163
flash it via fastboot typing "fastboot flash recovery stockrecovery.img"
after that u have to relock your phone using the comand "fastboot oem lock"
now leave your phone in fastboot usb mode and try to start the ruu installer from your desktop pc
now it should work if u have the correct matching ruu
Can anyone tell me what do I need to do to unbrick my phone.
I not really sure that my phone is bricked or what. cuz I tried to install android 4.2 but I not use Clockmod recovery and there are some problem with it. but now, when I turn my phone on, it just keep reset my phone, it doesn't show up the android screen.
Well! I try to search some unbricked topics but i don't understand how to do it.
I already got my Fastboot + ADB, RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_H3G_UK_1.29.771.11_Radio_1.1204.105.14H_release_260888_signed
I not really that my RUU is the lastest one or not my phone is htc one x uk, three carrier
I just need to know what do I have to do with these things :-ss

No you guys have any complete guides on how to unbrick htc one x ? im a bit confuse on those steps u told me
The link i gave you is a full guide to flash a custom rom.....start at page 1
Really all info is there !
You need to put the recovery.img in the fastboot folder on the pc....
Navigate to the folder and open a dosprompt there
Then do the command
Fastboot devices
If your serial pops up its good ....
Otherwise you need to install HTC sync and then uninstall HTC sync and leave the drivers .... And if that doesn't work you need the java SDK platform !
Connect your HTC One X to your USB cable and then to the PC, choose Disk Drive, next, copy and paste the CWM-SuperSU-v0.94.Zip file onto the root of the SD card for your HOX. Once that's on there, change the phones USB connection to charge only.

You need to have the phone in fastboot USB mode when flashing boot.img and recovery's ! Let's get back to basic .....
At what point are you now : it's bootlooping but you can acces the bootloader ?
no im on fastboot usb mode..

Hello,
i got this weird problem when i tried to install clockworkmod from here: knowyourmobile(dot)com/smartphones/htc/onex/onexuserguides/1419609/how_to_root_your_htc_one_x.html
My bootloader is unlocked.I downloaded the file end ran the script.When everything finished my phone got stuck in the boot screen.I tried to erase chase or install stock kernel and recovery (using all ine one tool from this site)but nothing solved it.The only thing that i havent tried yet is to flash a boot.img because i cant find one (i got the phone from europe(paris) and i have the jelly bean update and i cant find the stock boot.img).Any solutions?
Thanks in advance!
If you flash a rom you can find the boot.img inside the rom.zip file ! Flash the boot.img with fastboot commands and do a wipe in recovery and install the rom.zip file from sd card !
And its not a weird boot problem, it's a common user mistake that is done by many....many people
Ow and a kernel = boot.img
Thanks for the reply,Is there another way?Because i dont want to use a custom ROM.I just rooted it in order to install some apps that require root.I said its weird because i flashed the kernel and the problem stays
Do you have a custom recovery at the moment ? And did u do a nandroid backup of the stock rom ?
I think it's weird that you first say that you flashed the kernel and then you say you can't find the boot.img.......
Well i didnt know that kernel=boot.img and i dont know if the all ine one xda program puts the right program for jb.I didnt backup anything,I have clockworkmod recovery
Do you know fastboot and the commands ?
Fastboot oem readcid
and
Fastboot getvar version-main
And post these results here !
I will try it.THis doesnt format anything,right>?
Nope....
You have to enter the recovery from the bootloader - choose hboot and then recovery....if it enters check which version you have (cwm 5.8.4.0 ?)
From there you can go to mounts & storage and then choose at the bottom mount as USB drive
Then you can at least copy everything from the sd to a safe place. I think that the internal data is going to be lost ! Like messages and apps .... Everything that is stored in the cloud is safe anyway
cid:htc__203 OKAY
version-main:3.14.401.27
You can get the ruu with the same number on www.htcruu.com and put the phone in bootloader/fastboot USB
Relock the bootloader with
Fastboot oem lock
And run the ruu.exe with admin rights ...it will put the phone back to 100% stock
This is the one you need
http://www.htcruu.com/download.php?...Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_298897_signed.exe
Nice!Now to reunlock the bootloader i will do the same things i did the first time or there is a command for that?
Yes if you still have the unlock token.bin file you can unlock the bootloader with a fastboot command, the correct command slipped my mind at the moment !
Otherwise you can to the htcdev site again and unlock it there
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
Sent from my One V
Hello all,
Just before anyone says, I have looked for a few hours for the answer to this question, but all of the answers are either ambiguous or too complicated for a novice like me to understand .
The question I have is how do you upgrade the hboot of a rooted international HTC One X (step by step). I really want to flash CM 10.1 custom ROM, and it requires a newer hboot than the one I have. I have found a tool called JBFWFlasher, which can upgrade an hboot, but it says when you go through the steps: AFTER UPGRADE YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO INSTALL A FULLY FUNCTIONAL NON-SENSE BASED ROM.
Obviously CM 10.1 is non-sense based, so I think this is a dead end.
Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance :laugh:.
Details:
Hboot: 1.12.0000
Clockworkmod: v5.8.4.0
Cyanogenmod: 10
Get your CID
CID getter from the playstore will do, for the easy/lazy people or do the fastboot command
Fastboot oem readcid
Once you have ypur cid you go here and get your matching firmware
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376
And then you do this :
Rename the .zip to firmware.zip and place it in the fastboot folder
- Boot the phone to the bootloader and relock the bootloader :
Fastboot oem lock
- then put the phone in ruu mode with this command
Fastboot oem rebootRUU
(watch the capitals, this command will put the phone into a black screen with a silver HTC logo)
- then flash the firmware
Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
- you see the text on the pc screen, when it says OKE you are good. If it failed you reflash the zip right away again.
Then reboot the bootloader, unlock it, flash the custom recovery, make a full wipe and install the new JB of ypur choice and don't forget to flash its boot.img too
Thanks, you couldn't have made that explanation simpler :laugh:. So, because I am an idiot and I somehow have no fastboot folder, what are all the components I need for it?
At the moment I have:
The latest CM 10.1 zip folder
^^^ The boot.img copied from this folder
The latest gapps zip folder for CM 10.1 & Android 4.2.2
The CID when I get it
Anything else? Thanks for the help .
You need the ANDROID SDK BUNDLE ..... Unpack it and inside the platform tools you find the fastboot files. That is your fastboot folder.
Or use a JB firmware flasher.
Also, one other thing, when I just went and got the zip from the link you posted, the download was off of Android Revolution HD. Just thought that I'd check, this won't mean I can only use this ROM will it? CM 10.1 will work fine?
Not trying to be awkward, I just don't want to get this wrong .
First you need your cid otherwise you don't know what you need to download !

Yeah, I did the CID and found it was HTC__001, I then went on to download that zip for hboot 1.39 and that is when the android revolution page popped up. Just thought I should check with the guru first :laugh:.
Oke yes that's correct .....
Yep then you have it all. Also put the unlock code.bin file (the one you got in the mail from htc the first time you unlocked the bootloader) into the fastboot folder.
Follow all the steps i wrote earlier and it will be fine
How to flash ?
Open a command window from inside the fastboot folder . Hold shift and point in the folder then right click the mouse and select : open command window here
From that dos command window you type all the FASTBOOT commands.

After the update you can install any rom here you like.
Yeah unpack the bundle to a folder where you can find it .... then follow the steps !
Knew I'd spoken too soon. In program-tools, fastboot is an application, not a folder, and when I click it it does nothing. Is there any stock fastboot folder I can get from anywhere?
Common mistake ! You need to open the command window inside that folder with the fastboot.exe file !
Like i mentioned about 2-3 posts back.
Don't double click the fastboot.exe file it does indeed do nothing !

So can I copy this individual file into C: drive and use it as a 'base' file to store all the CM10.1 folder and stuff?
I should probably stop bugging you now, its midnight lol
Yeah this is my last reply and then im off to bed ! Its 1 o clock here now
The cm10.1 and the Gapps go onto the sdcard of the phone
In the fastboot folder you need :
- firmware.zip
- unlock code.bin
- boot.img from the cm10.1
- custom recovery.img
And then you start......if you are uncomfortable with all this we can also do this all with teamviewer tomorrow evening ? If you like ! :thumbup:

Get your CID
CID getter from the playstore will do, for the easy/lazy people or do the fastboot command
Fastboot oem readcid
Once you have ypur cid you go here and get your matching firmware
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376
And then you do this :
Rename the .zip to firmware.zip and place it in the fastboot folder
- Boot the phone to the bootloader and relock the bootloader :
Fastboot oem lock
- then put the phone in ruu mode with this command
Fastboot oem rebootRUU
(watch the capitals, this command will put the phone into a black screen with a silver HTC logo)
- then flash the firmware
Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
- you see the text on the pc screen, when it says OKE you are good. If it failed you reflash the zip right away again.
Then reboot the bootloader, unlock it, flash the custom recovery, make a full wipe and install the new JB of ypur choice and don't forget to flash its boot.img too

Thanks, all of this worked well. It did fail the first time, but then I did it again and all is good .
I am at the point now where I just flashed the zip and need to reboot the bootloader and unlock etc. Please can you tell me all the command prompt commands from here as I am a bit lost at the moment. Thanks :laugh:.
Hold the power button and the volume - button as long as it takes to reboot into the bootloader. Check if your hboot has changed. Then unlock it
Fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin
After unlocking you flash the newcustom recovery
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
Then flash the new boot.img from the new rom you want to flash
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Then enter the recovery and make a full wipe and install the new rom

Please please please
Any one can help me
To begin with your HBOOT is an old version. Upgrade it and then flash the ROM you want or find the right RUU to flash
You will need HBOOT 1.39 at least. See this link

First of all i want to thank you very very much for your replay
So i tried what you said and i successfully updated the hboot to 1.39
then did a bootloader reboot but when the phone restarts it stucks on (white htc one screen) can't load to the standard screen.. i pressed the power button for 5 sec and the phone restarted .. pressed the vol down and entered the boot loader .. at boot loader if i tried to access the recovery or factory reset the phone simply display a black screen and downloading bar lookalike for 5 sec then restarts
I tried to flash a rom via cmd but i got the following error:
FAILED (remote: Heap not enough)
Ps: i can't try the ruu ENDEAVOR cuz the phone can't access the standard screen

After flashing a new HBOOT your bootloader is now locked. It needs to be unlocked
take a look at this link and it will help you unlock your bootloader. Then you can flash a costume recovery and then flash your ROM
http://onexroot.com/one-x-root/how-to-root-one-x/
You need to do a bit of reading about all the steps needed for getting the ROM you want. Jumping in to quick could cause problems. Luckily you have S_ON so that will help prevent making big mistakes

Thank you again i really appreciate your help
So i did what you said and flashed a costume recovery .. I've tried both clockwork and philz toch 6 .. i successfully flashed both but neither i could flash a rom with ..
Every time i try new rom i get installation aborted
And if i try to flash with cmd i get Failure (heap not enough)
What can i do now ?? ?
What commands are are you using in CMD to flash your ROM
Did you Flash boot.img from the ROM before flashing ROM
I assume you can get to fastboot mode and recovery mode?
Please do command fastboot getvar version-main and post result

Version-main: 3.14.401.31
I tried the following cmd commands in fastboot :
Fastboot oem rebootruu
Fastboot flash zip 3.zip
And I got the following error message :
Failed <remote: heap not enough >
I tried to flash the boot.img before I flash the rom and get the next error message :
Failed <remote: err = 0xa>
I tried to wipe everything and push the rom to Sdcard with adb push command and tried to flash it via recovery cwm and philz but every time I got (installation aborted ) I tried to install super su the same way and it worked so I guess the rom is not suitable for my device I tried to flash two more roms but with no luck I always get the same error
Not sure what you have done. Try this.
Download the following RUU
http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo...Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_302015_signed.exe
Put phone in fastboot mode
connect to PC and make sure it says fastboot USB
Open command prompt from what ever folder you fastboot files are in.
type fastboot oem lock (this will lock your bootloader )
Run this RUU
Let me know

Thank you very very very very very much u saved my mobile :highfive:
I really appreciate your help and i am thankful to you
Every thing works now .. thaaaaaaank you <3
You are welcome
Note that your bootloader will now be locked and your phone is not rooted.
If you want to experiment with custom ROMs when you must (FIRST) unlock the bootloader and (SECOND) root your phone
onexroot.com is a good site with tutorials to help you.
