First, noob here to the HOX and not very bright, technologically speaking, lol.
I'm on ARHD v15.0 and was trying to flash a new kernel (ncx-217) which I repacked with the boot .img of the ARHD rom. I followed ALL of the steps very carefully but when I rebooted I was stuck on the "htc quietly brilliant" screen. So I searched and saw directions to get into fastboot, which I was able to do but, my computer will not recognize my phone now (so I cannot flash something via sdk).
Btw, I do have the CM 10 rom on my sd card to flash in recovery, but no separate boot.img to flash (or any way I know of flashing it from my computer since it's not recognizing my phone in usb fastboot mode).
Thanks in advance
I'm thinking I should just go ahead and flash the CM10 rom I have on my sd card (and hope for the best).
Ugh! My beautiful new (to me) One X...
You're on jb hboot. Jb roms and hboot do not support custom kernels as of now. You'll have to wait till jb kernel source is out and the devs to make one. Reflash ARHD.

I see. But I cannot flash ARHD cause it's not on my phone and I can't get my computer to recognize my phone in fastboot. I do have a copy of CM10 on my sd card. Should I just go ahead and flash that in recovery?
Why don't you just mount USB storage in recovery and copy ARHD over?

Can you elaborate? How do I mount USB storage in recovery? Keeping in mind that I cannot get my computer to detect my phone now.

Okay, that worked! Nice. So, now I should just transfer ARHD to the sd card and flash that?
Only problem is, I cannot flash the boot.img first because when I go out of mount USB storage (into fastboot) I lose my connection from the phone to the computer...
Nandroid?
If u had a nandroid backup before flashing the kernel.Then restore it.
If not/
Download the latest drives(Htc Sync)
Ur phone will get deteced for sure.

Can only find the AT&T drivers and now phone is saying battery level too low to flash! F#ck
Here you can find the drivers, in the first post

Connect the phone to the wallcharger and go into bootloader and select power down.
Let it charge for a while

Should I boot into recovery and charge from there? (that's what it says in the link you listed...)
Yes that is also possible, i assume you are using cwm 5.8.4.0 !

No. I was actually able to flash the ARHD rom in recovery but still wouldn't boot (I'm assuming b/c I hadn't flashed the boot .img). I was unable to flash the boot .img due to my computer still not recognizing my phone, despite having installed the drivers. I went to sleep and when I woke up the phone was apparently dead (I think the connection between the adapter and the plug was not good), so I'm charging it again now.
Do you think the lack of the boot .img is the reason it's not working (and not being recognized by my computer)? Any further suggestions? Maybe I'll try and get rid of all the drivers and start over (I d/l'd the drivers several times).
I appreciate your help, man!
Yes i really think that its the reason it doesn't boot !
Install the drivers again after that remove HTC sync but leave the drivers intact its an option in the deinstall menu on the pc.
I'm gonna give a dl link to my fastboot folder . Put the folder on C:\
So it's gonna be C:\fastboot\3 fastboot/adb files.
You probably have this but its easier for me to explain

Hi,
Im obviously the biggest idiot on here and I need some help.
Last night whilst formatting my phone through cwm I was tired and accidentally hit format SD Card and by the time I rebooted it was too late.
Now I dont have any Roms to use. The SD Card is completely blank
Is there any way to overcome this issue or do I have to buy a new phone?

There should be a few workarounds here. I take it you can still get to fastboot on your phone? (hold power and vol down, then enter fastboot by using the power key). If so, put the rom you're trying to flash in your platform\tools folder of your computer. Then open a command prompt and try the following command:
cd C:\location of your platform\tools folder
adb devices (you should get a series of numbers pop up)
adb push romfilename.zip/sdcard/ (replace romfilename.zip with your rom, and don't forget the .zip)
adb reboot
You may also have to do a factory reset afterwards in recovery. Hopefully this helps!

i can still get fastboot
do i push the files through to the phone through fastboot with cmd? or do i need a different set of tools?
Yep, RUU is the way forward. Use fastboot to flash the stock recovery, lock the bootloader and then run your RUU

I have tried that too mate, I guess the only thing I probably can do is hope that CWM will be able to mount usb in the near future. In the meantime I don't have a phone which is killing me.
Recovered
Ok so here is what happened,
After accidentally formatting everything including SD Card contents I thought my phone was permanently bricked until cwm had external usb functioning.
So I tried using the RUU but kept getting error message that USB wasn't connected even though it was.
If anyone else is in this situation in the future make sure you install the HTC One X USB drivers onto your windows and then boot into fastboot not hboot.
I couldnt find the USB Drivers but thanks to hasoon2000 for his beautiful tool 'HTC One X All-In-One Toolkit V1.0' which can be found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604439 i was able to install the drivers. I then booted into fastboot and completed the process.
Thank all you guys for your help in this matter
Upgrading to ARHD 6.1.0, it didn't like it, stuck on splash screen (waited 30 mins twice)
Tried to get ARHD 6.0.0 back onto my SD Card, wasn't recognised in windows from recovery.
Tried a few clockworkmod recoveries, modaco and finally out of sheer desperation I tried HTC Stock recovery. That was a mistake.
Now SD card says (No Files Found) when trying to access it and I can't get a recovery to mount it right for windows.
What are my options, can I use adb push to get a ROM onto my phone?
Bootloader is fine, recovery is fine except mounting the SD card.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ok best option is to download the RUU for your device, boot into Fastboot-USB and run the RUU.
Go back to stock and then start from scratch. If your device hangs at the boot screen again after flashing ARHD then run fastboot erase cache.
If you can get into fastboot just reflash the latest CWM and then use that to add the ROM file back to your phone
Or, relock the bootloader and flash the RUU you downloaded as a backup before flashing a custom ROM
SD card wiped and not being recognised by windows.
How do I get the RUU onto the sd card?
Or can I push it onto the device in fastboot?

As Eddy said...just go to the CWM Thread and download the lastest CWM recovery.
Since a few days its possible to mount the sd card in recovery, which wasnt before.
flash it then go to recovery->mounts and storage: mount usb mass storage
and windows should recognize your phone sd card.
No need to flash a RUU.
When you flash a rom, ensure that you always flash the provided boot.img and fastboot erase cache.

Didn't realise HTC Stock recovery would wipe my SD card
It doesn't, you've done that yourself (or if you relocked and unlocked the bootloader it'll wipe it)

No I didn't relock the bootloader.

I thought I was being fairly careful.
I've just installed new USB drivers, I'll wait for the RUU to finish downloading before I reboot and try to mount one last time.
Thx for your help mate.
The RUU is the easiest way to reload everything, so long as you've got the right RUU

Yes put the file in the fastboot folder on the pc and rename it to recovery.img
Then open the command window in that folder, hold shift + right click and open command window here
Then flash it
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
And while you are at it.
Fastboot getvar version-main
That will tell me the firmware you need to flash to upgrade the hboot if you didn't do that yet. Can't say if you need the same firmware as the thread where you got redirected to !

Restore your backup and then before flashing cyanogenmod rom flash the boot.img from the zip of cyanogenmod rom
Mr Hofs said:
Yes put the file in the fastboot folder on the pc and rename it to recovery.img
Then open the command window in that folder, hold shift + right click and open command window here
Then flash it
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
And while you are at it.
Fastboot getvar version-main
That will tell me the firmware you need to flash to upgrade the hboot if you didn't do that yet. Can't say if you need the same firmware as the thread where you got redirected to !

Thanks mate can now see the light at the end of a very long tunnel lol used a different PC and got the recovery updated just waiting for the correct HBOOT version to flash then install the rom and back in business and I have a phone again after 12 hrs with out one. how did we ever survive before mobile phones lol
Aha Optus Australia ! I want you to run a ruu and update via official ota, because the stock backups for Optus are rare. And if you want to be able to update to sense 5 then you 100& need a stock backup !!!
Here is the ruu
http://bugsylawson.com/files/file/1...11-radio-1120410514-release-260560-signedexe/
Relock the bootloader :
Fastboot oem lock
Then keep the phone in the bootloader and execute the ruu.exe from the pc with administrator rights ! Right click it and select run as administrator
It will flash the phone back to full stock, stock rom, recovery and kernel.
Note : it will wipe EVERYTHING.

Gr8 thanks for that, looks like a lot more messing around but should be worth it in the long run I hope, u relock and unlock the bootloader in recovery don't u? I think I saw those options in there earlier, doesnt mater if it wipes everything I have a back up of my storage and I have factory reset it 2-3 times in the last 12 hrs I will have to charge it a bit now as it went flat about half an hr ago I will let u know how it goes :victory:
No you lock it via fastboot commands, all commands starting with fastboot are done with the phone in the bootloader !
So the steps are :
1: run the ruu like described
2: after all updates via phone menu you should get to jellybean android 4.1.....check your bootloader and make sure the hboot number is above 1.31 !
3: unlock the bootloader again with the unlock code
Fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin
4: flash the custom recovery
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
and make a NANDROID BACKUP RIGHT AWAY ! Very important !!!
5: flash the boot.img from the new desired rom
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
6: make a full wipe in the recovery (wipe all except the sdcard !)
7: install the new rom.zip in the recovery
8: reboot and enjoy JB !

OK and to unlock it again once all this is done would it be fastboot oem unlock ?

Updated my post
Hey there guys,
I have rooted my HTC One X a while ago. Used a nice rom and it was all great. But then the HTC Sense 5 and android 4.2.2 update aired, so I wanted to update my phone. I put the new kernel and rom on my phone. Flashed both (something must have gone wrong, because I was in a boot loop). I am able to go to recovery. Somehow I lost all the files on my phone. So there is no rom left. I tried push a new rom on my phone using adb, but it was not successfull because it said: ''no device detected''. So atm I am stuck in recovery, without a rom, the mount usb function on my clockworkmod v5.8.2.7. doesn't work. I do not know if there is a solution. Hope you guys can help me out.
Please! haha!

Problem is solved. Had to flash a new recovery! Thanks to Mr Hofs and Stefan0vic!
Flash a new recovery, mount the sdcard in there as a usb disk and copy a rom to it.
Flash the boot.img of the rom, make a full wipe and install the rom.zip !

Sometimes the mount USB option doens't work for me either.
Do you have all the drivers installed? HTC Sync for instance?

You don't have to.. you just put your recovery.img to the folder where your adb and fastboot directory is in your computer. Then hold shift+right click, select open a new command window here, then type:
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash recovery yourrecovery.img
Then you have a new recovery.. i hope this helps.

yeah, I do have HTC Sync installed. Because it was a while ago I do not completely remember if I still have the other drivers. I guess so though.

Hey there, I tried this, it didn't work. It just kept saying < waiting for device > in the command window.
So I hope you guys have another solution I'm kind of desperate.
Okay, I retried this. My phone has a new recovery now. The mount usb function still doesn't work on my phone though. My laptop still doesn't recognize my phone...

You sure you navigated to fastboot and selected it, and pressed power button?

I know if this would work with anyone else, but sometimes, when my laptop doesn't recognize my phone while on fastboot or recovery, i'll unplug my phone, restart my laptop, reboot my phone to recovery, then most of the time my laptop will then recognize my phone.. i hope this would work for you too. But i really don't know what am i missing here.. but it's not that hard to give it a try.

I have to supercid htc one x. Can I update via OTA? (currently not updating)
Then you have s-off too. You should be able to flash the 4.18.401 firmware that upgrades the hboot to 1.72 and then install a sense 5 rom
But sense 5 roms also works on at least hboot 1.36 and higher. Lower then 1.36 dont know....not tested it.

it usually takes a minute or 2 for adb to kick in on the phone after connecting the phone to usb port.
1) check in device manager if your phone is detected Android USB device
2) after connecting your phone PC open command/cmd type adb kill-server
3) wait for about 2 minutes
4) type adb devices if it detects your phone then you can copy the rom zip with adb push xxx.zip /sdcard(ie if you are unable to mount as usb)
Yes it's a fully touch recovery. And the mount usb function is not working in 5.8.2.7 because it's just not supported.
That's why he needs a new one
Hee guys,
Thanks for all the help. My device is running again!

Hey pals. I have an issue with my DHD...I am running CyanogenMod 10.1 and yesturday someone messed with the developer options and chose to emulate a 1024x760, or something like that, display. The phone froze and I had to remove the battery to shut it down...However when I try to do a factory reset through CWM recovery the phone freezes on the HTC logo and when I try to boot It freezes before reaching the home screen. I realized that this phone can't boot normally now cos the display emulation i talked about earlier is causing an issue, and the situation has been complicated by the fact that I cant use CWM recovery...So I cant acces the phone completely...So I am wondering if there is a way to undo that setting without using CWM recovery...Something like maybe removing the battery or opening it up n remove something for some time etc. Any help will be appreciated.

Hey XDA_h3n what is a ruu? Could be worth a try since when i go to fastboot I have 4 options which are 1. Bootloader 2. Reboot 3. Reboot bootloader and 4. Power down. So I go for he reboot option n the phone just tries to reboot n it hangs again just before the home screen...Thanks

You are s-off dont use ruu, it may make you s-on.
Press Fastboot then do the flashing from cmd cd to your your-android-sdk-folder-location-here/platform-tools/fastboot.exe like cd c:/android/ then do fastboot flash recovery.img and make sure you have recovery.img in your tools folder. You can find a .img from the thread I posted previously (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2317202&d=1381475742) in this example extract it place .img in the platform-tools location and rename the .img to recovery.img
Flashing a ruu wont make you loose s-off, it makes you loose root. Two completely different things.
Your issue happened when you did the factory reset.
One possible solution is to:
Flash ruu
Flash a recovery
Flash rom
As long as your phone is recognized by your pc (which may not due to having done tue factory reset - can't remember if it does or doesn't), then you should be good to go.

Unfortunately the PC is not recognizing the phone anymore...Do u think I can do it by SD card...i.e renaming the stock ROM or Recovery to PD98IMG.zip and putting it on the root of SD card? I guess the solution has to not involve USB connectivity

Sounds reasonable, but not quite sure. I can't remember if you can flash a rom that way. I would suggest to do a proper search, read and see what you can find in that regard.

Well in my research (back in 2010) to flash a ruu with a previous version you need a gold card. After you get the ruu as a PDxxxxx.zip format (look for a desire hd one as others will brick your phone) and place it in the root of your sd card. Reboot your phone in recovery and press vol+ to flash, and wait for 10-20mins and your phone should be alive.
Some sd's dont work with gold cards (in my experience, a kingston 16gb didn't work but a samsung 8gb did for some reason)
