[Q] Help with boot loop - HTC One X

Hello
I unlocked my bootloader and tried to root my phone but now it is stuck in a boot loop.
I have clockwork mod recovery installed 'recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img' and have tried wiping cache, data and dvlik etc but no joy.
I have superSU on SDcard but clockwork doesnt see it.
i have heard about flashing boot.img but dont know where to start.
my phone is HTC One X UK Vodafone. It had 4.0.3. It boots to the wallpaper but then restarts.
Can any help a noob?
Cheers :silly:

What have you done to it so far? Sounds like you unlocked it and flashed clockworkmod, which can't cause the problems you're describing.
Have you done anything else?
Do you just want to root your stock ROM or install a custom ROM?

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.
You need to get a rom.zip, hopefully you created a nandroid for your stock rom? I hope so...if not WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY? You've made your life a little more difficult now.
Get a rom.zip of your choice, unzip it on your computer, you will see a boot.img, copy that to your fastboot folder (mine is C:/Android). Now make sure you have copied the rom.zip (zipped up again) onto your device.
Enter fastboot (power off, power on holding vol- down) Click fastboot
Open on your windows PC (assuming thats what you have)
CMD (command prompt and type the following)
cd c:/android
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
Now go into recovery, flash from sd card, choose your rom.zip
voila, SLOW START UP FOR FIRST BOOT.

Hey Lady Android!
strangely enough when my phone powered down after running out of juice overnight it has booted fine. and now i have just successfully installed titanium backup.
not sure why it was bootlooping though.
thing is, now i don't have any service. not sure what is going on with that.
now the the rom is working i would like to flash a decent ROM.
Can anyone suggest a good source for downloading them?

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

Try restoring from nand backup or reinstall the ROM

As nexxusdev is implying, just flash your ROM again.

thanks all for replys and sorry for thw wrong section
im not sure but i remember on my g2x you could hook up phone from recovery mode and mount it on the computer with sd card .. have you looked around in CWM? This is your fault to be honest you deserve this for not making a NAND back up. ALWAys MAKE A BACK UP! period. There is a reason why devs and everyone else stress' it so much.
Sert00 is right. Flash any [previously] working ROM on it. It will be a dirty flash and some stuff won't work, but you'll be able to backup your data. You'll reflash again later

[Q] rom issue

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 -

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.

[Q] a whole mess of problems..

Ok, so..my Girlfriend tried to root the phone herself and i think something went wrong...actually i know something went wrong..when i load up the Bootloader it gives me a few NO IMAGE found things on the SD card....but the real issue arises when i try to load a ROM onto the phone it will function for like 5 maybe 6 mintues then restart.
I tried to restore the phone to before roms were attempted to be installed on it, and the phone just hangs on the HTC screen and doesn't move.
I've tried installing Different Kernels using the whole fastboot flash boot boot.img method and none of the kernels i install seem to help..
I'm not 100% familiar with this phone since i myself use a S2 Skyrocket..
So my real question is..is there any way to get this phone back to square one so i can reinstall HBoot or whatever its called, or is there a way from where i'm at to stop this phone from constantly rebooting itself?
i don't think because there is no way to reinstall Hboot , only it can be done by HTC service centre but i will advice you to root it again from beginning , if your bootloader is already unlocked then try to root HOV , and after rooting i will suggest you to use PA rom with cm10 hellboy kernel
The no image thing is normal.not to worry.
Which Rom did you try to install?
Edit:is the phone gsm or cdma?

I was trying to install that one "Pacman"
It gets about to the point where she would enter her information for account sync and then it would just reboot.
and the phone is CDMA through Virgin Mobile
And about the CM10 thing, i was reading that CM10 doesn't work with the camera, and she needs the camera for work to send pics to her other managers
Ok,your phone is completely normal.
Now,do this in order
Put Rom and gapps in sdcard
Put the kernel in fastboot/platform-tools folder
Boot into bootloader and select fastboot.
flash kernel using the command you described in OP
Enter recovery.do a full wipe,i.e,factory reset,wipe cache,wipe.dalvik cache.also,go into mounts and storage and format every partition,except sdcard.
Then flash the Rom.zip,boot into Rom and then again into recovery and flash gapps.

sd-ext format isn't supported so you may as well leave it.and,use the boot.img inside the zip,that is the supersick kernel.

You have to flash the kernel first!only then will it boot.
Go into fastboot,flash the kernel found inside the backup and then restore it.

Phone stuck in htc logo while rooting

Hello.
I try root my htc One X international, i unlock bootloader, then i use r3 endeavour insecurebootandroot , and in a middle of rooting cmd on my computer just shut off, and phone stuck on htc logo, since then i can't turn it on , all i can do is use power and volume down, i try factory reset, didn't help, phone still stuck on htc logo, when i try recovery, i get phone lay on back, with red triangle on it.
please, can anyone know how to fix it ? htc always was pain in ass to root, but this time i stuck. Many threads are similar, but mostly people stuck after they already rooted and flash rom, i don't go that far, not sure phone is even rooted, but bootloader is unlocked so far.

Mate, it sounds like your system is wiped, so the phone can't boot. Do you have any experience with fastboot and ADB commands?
If so, download a custom recovery (CWM, or TWRP, or Phil'z touch - recommended), place it in your fastboot folder, and type:
fastboot flash recovery downloadedrecoveryname.img in CMD window.
This wil enable you to use custom recovery.
Hopefully, you already have a custom ROM which you want to install. Extract boot.img from the ROM.zip, and place it in your fastboot older, and type:
fastboot flash boot boot.img in CMD window, followed by fastboot erase cache.
Then, reboot to your recovery, and flash ROM.zip (I guess you don't need any specific instructions for that).

This wil enable you to use custom recovery.
Hopefully, you already have a custom ROM which you want to install. Extract boot.img from the ROM.zip, and place it in your fastboot older, and type:
fastboot flash boot boot.img in CMD window, followed by fastboot erase cache.
Then, reboot to your recovery, and flash ROM.zip (I guess you don't need any specific instructions for that).

No, mate.
The ROM.zip goes to your sd card.
You can copy it through recovery, but mounting sd card.
In recovery you have all these options. Also, in ROM's thread (whichever you chose to flash) there is thorough instruction how to flash ROM.

Img is the correct format.

I believe you are capable of getting in bootloader and flashing through fastboot.

You are welcome, mate. I'm glad it worked for you. Enjoy your HOX, it's a great phone, and Viper is a great ROM.
I suggest you flash Alex V kernel. It will bring more nice features to your phone
