tried factory reset?
you can mount storage through recovery and put the rom in sd card and flash the rom
what do you mean by soft brick?? what did you do cause this?

Go to recovery > mounts and storage >
mount usb storage. With usb cable connected you should be able to copy over your rom and flash it. Did you flash the boot.img?

What ROM are you trying to install? Basically you flash a ROM like this:
Download ROM and extract boot.img from the zip
Transfer the ROM to sd-card
Boot into fastboot: volumedown + power until you see a menu -> select fastboot
Connect usb-cable to PC
It should read fastboot-usb in your phone
Go to fastboot command prompt on your PC and type: fastboot flash boot boot.img
Disconnect usb cable
Select hboot -> recovery in your phones menu
Wipe cache and dalvik cache in recovery
Install zip -> choose zip from sd-card -> choose your rom zip
Reboot

how r u doing guys,
after unlocking on htcdev, I 1st used the EASIEST ROOT METHOD - 'RECOVERY + SUPERSU' provided by PAUL but found that i couldnt boot into recovery, then i used the alternate method, after that my phone keeps restarting!
what to do now?
Flash cwm 5.4.0 through fastboot..
Download any custom rom of your choice.. put it in sd.. flash zip through cwm..
Reboot in bootloader..
Erase cache in fastboot and flash boot.img of the custom rom..
Make sure you wipe data/cache in cwm recovery..
There are so many guides.. take help for the commands..
Good luck

First of all,since you are new to the forum,please post any further inquiries into the Q&A section.Its made specifically for problems like this.To answer your question:
If you are stuck in fastboot you have to do two things.
1.Flash a custom recovery
2.Use the recovery you just flashed to mount usb storage and transfer any rom you want.
This thread will help you in doing both http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1577671

don't work.. ist another way?
thread should be n q&a section have asked mods to move
if you are unlocked via htc dev, flash the attached recovery in fastboot
once flashed, select HBOOT on the fastboot (bootloader) screen and then on the HBOOT screen, select recovery. once in recovery select mounts and storage then mount USB storage whilst your phone is connected via usb. you should be able to view files on SD card and therefore copy rom.zip over. also flash boot.img through fastboot :good:

You need cwm 5.8.4.0.
I need very SERIOUS help. It's my first time to try to flash my HTC One X. I downloaded all necessary files and proceed to follow below instructions on how to install CM10 on my phone.
The problem is (I know this is very stupid) I forgot to copy the CM10 zip file to my phone's internal storage. I thought I did it already but I only realized that I didn't when I was on Step 14 already. Now I cannot access my phone's internal storage and my phone won't boot anymore. Please help.
1.Copy the CM10 ZIP file to your phone’s internal SD card.
2.On the PC, extract the Fasboot.zip. You will get a folder named Fastboot.
3.Extract the boot.img file from the cm10_endeavoru-ota-eng.noeri-028.zip file and place it into the Fastboot folder.
4.Turn your phone off.
5.Boot to Fastboot Mode. Hold down the Volume Down and the Power buttons until the screen turns on to enter Bootloader Mode.
6.In Bootloader Mode, highlight Fastboot Mode using the Volume keys and select it by using the Power button.
7.Connect your phone to your PC via USB cable.
8.Open a command prompt on your PC and navigate it to the Fastboot folder.
9.In the command prompt, type fastboot devices to check if your device has successfully connected to your PC. Your phone’s serial number should appear on the screen.
10.Flash the boot.img by typing the following in the command prompt:◦fastboot flash boot boot.img
11.Go back to your phone and select Bootloader to go back to the main Bootloader menu.
12.In Bootloader Mode, highlight Recovery using the Volume keys and select it by using the Power button to boot into ClockworkMod Recovery.
13.Select Wipe data/factory reset > Yes.
14.Select Install ZIP from SD card > Choose ZIP from SD card > select the cm10_endeavoru-ota-eng.noeri-028.zip file > Yes.
15.Select Go back > Reboot system now.

Thanks for your advise but I another problem popped out. I cannot do fastboot because my boot loader says that my battery level is too low to flash. I connected my phone to external power but it seems it is not charging. I left it for a couple of hours and still I have the same problem.

Thanks TToivanen! :good: You're a genius! Now, I was able to flash my phone, update CWM to latest version, copy CyanogenMod 10 to my phone's internal storage and finally install it.
Thanks a lot to everyone!
I have a problem with WiFi though, but I think it's another topic. Won't hurt if you can help also. LOL
Wifi / Data / GPs issues etc are usually to do with the ROM/Kernel.
So as stated, this is a totally different issue and should be resolved in the relevant thread !!
Glad everything is sorted though !!
Hello, I was flashing the latest version of ViperX and it wouldn't boot so I decided to reinstall. After reinstalling I updated my hboot to the latest version and was told to erase everything such as cache, system, dalvik etc. It deleted my backups, I have lost ClockWorkMod on my phone and ADB wont detect it. I also have no rom on my phone as of now, I think I could fix it if I could get ADB to detect the phone. When I plug my phone into the computer it detects it as a HTC but when I type "adb devices" I get nothing coming up
Could someone suggest something to fix it?
Hold your volume - and the power button together until you see the bootloader !
Is the bootloader unlocked ? And what version do you have now ?
Unlock the bootloader if its relocked. Put the unlock code.bin file in the fastboot folder and flash it
Fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin
Download this file and place it in your fastboot folder, rename it to recovery.img and flash it
http://db.tt/S74XQEtu
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache

Well I'm getting there.
I've reinstalled CWM and I'm looking to install the ROM now but it has been deleted from my SD card, either that or my sd isn't working.
Is there a way to access my sd card without a ROM Wmaybe install and flash without using the "choose zip from sdcard" option?
When I press "choose zip from sdcard" it says "No files found."
What do I do now?
Select mounts and storage and mount usb storage.
(if you get an error (ums) DL this: http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)
Then copy the viper x rom to the sdcard.
Make a full wipe in the recovery
Factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Advanced - wipe dalvik cache
Mounts & storage - format cache, system, data
Then install the rom.....do not reboot if you did not flash the boot.img
Type in the commond prompt
Adb reboot bootloader
Then flash the boot.img from the viper x rom, found inside the rom.zip !
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot reboot
If you already flashed the boot.img you can skip the last part

This may be a stupid question but how to I get the rom on the sd card?
Select mounts and storage inside the recovery and then mount as mass storage device .....last option of the list
Connect usb cable (obvious) and it pops up on your pc. Then just copy it over.

Am trying to install cyanogenmod onto my OneX and did a full wipe/format of everything from CMW including sdcard, but now cant find a way to get the zip file onto my sdcard to install the new rom. I dont have a backup of any kind unfortunately
When I run 'adb devices', nothing shows up in the list. I can connect via fastboot, but the rom wont install from there.
Can anyone advise how to install the rom from here? I have searched but no luck so far
Thanks in advance, Barry

Rename it to recovery.img and flash it

Then enter it and go to mounts and storage and tap the last option in the list ! It will mount the sdcard as a mass storage device .....
Then copy the CM10.1, the GAPPS and the VENDOR INSTALLER
http://db.tt/u5FF3jgi
Full wipe already done ? Then install CM10.1 and GAPPS and VENDORS without rebooting the phone !
Then type :
Adb reboot bootloader
(when the command does not work you hold the volume - and the power button pressed until you see the bootloader)
When it boots to the bootloader you flash the boot.img from the CM10.1 rom and then you reboot !
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img

Fastboot reboot
Done ! :thumbup:

I flashed the 5.8.4.0 touch recovery direct from clockworkmod and then was able to mount sdcard as your suggestion (prefer to get direct from source). Brilliant, thanks a bunch!

Good :thumbup:

Please give me the links to files
I also have this same problem in my One X, as this ..
actually, I can go to fastboot to flash img & can go to CWM Recovery (v5.8.1.8),
then connect the USB flash drive to USB OTA cable, then try to "mounts and storage",
but It always shown on screen as "E: Unable to open ums lunfile (no such file or directory)"
Please give me the links to recovery.img and CM10.1, the GAPPS and the VENDOR INSTALLER, follow by your suggestion.
I will try to follow your step, and hope it would be work for me.
thank you very much in advance.
