[Q] My HOX (HTC One X) wont install sense roms

Hello,
I have recently bought a second-hand HTC One X. When i bought the HOX it was rooted running the viper x 2.0.0 rom. I decided to change the rom to cyanogen 10 nightly. It was working fine but then i decided to install slim bean 3.0.0 and this was working fine too (this is what i have on my HOX right now).What i would like to do is install viper x 2.0.0 again or another sense-based rom. However i tried doing this and it does not boot. When i install it, it just loads the htc logo and then reboots again back into clockworkmod recovery?
I have tried various sense-based roms and none of then work? Also i know viper x 2.0.0 works because it was on there when i bought it.
Please can someone give me instuctions on how to do it.
Thanks in advance
P.S When i try to install the viper x or other sense-based rom i flash the boot.img using 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'
I have just fixed it i installed the latest version and worked the one i was installing must have been a ota update? anyway if u are stuck like me read this

after flashing the boot.img try "fastboot erase cache" it should work

erase cache always

Thanks for reply

Are you flashing the correct boot.img from the viperx rom.zip

Yes, i know this because i use winrar to extract the boot.img from the viperx.zip
What do u think i should do to make it work?
I was thinking do i need to flash a kernel that works for the viperx to work or does the viperx.zip already have a kernel inside the file?
At the moment i have : 2.6.39.4-cyanogenmod because i have slimbean installed which is based on cm10

Full wipe, that's all I can think of.

This is one of the ways i have done it:

1. go to bootloader and hit fastboot option
2. fastboot erase cache
3. fastboot flash boot boot.img (boot.img from the viperx.zip)
4. fastboot erase cache
5. disconect the phone from USB and go to the recovery
6. wipe data/factory reset
7. wipe cache
8. mounts & storage format system , data , cache
9. go to advanced and wipe dalvic cache
10. flash the rom
11. I rebooted the HOX in the aroma installer
12. and then it just boots on htc logo then back into recovery?!?
Also the weird thing is only sense-based roms don't work? And all the sense-based roms i have tried use aroma installer, maybe this could be to do with it?

First install rom then boot.img.

Do it all over but this time install this zipfile before flashing the rom in recovery
http://db.tt/eLoVUcRc
Put this file on the sd card and flash it in recovery like a rom, when this completed install the blade rom ! Maybe it helps
Ps it's a superwipe script !

Thankyou will try now..

Did not work!
It didnt work why do u think its not working?
When i install the desense version it takes less than 30secs to install and it says
"Installing update package"
But it cant be an update because it was 280mb and the 2.0.0 release is also 280mb?
Thanks for help any more suggestions?

Did u check the checksum of the rom ? Maybe bad downloads, are u using some download manager or accelerater ? Those things might cause trouble ?
Just thinking out loud here !

Also I can use viperx cos the Rom can run on that hboot

The only thing i can think of is a bad download .....
If you flashed the kernel in fastboot, did a full wipe (superwipe script) and flash the rom it should boot ... It's just as simple as that !
And I don't see a modified boot.img in the OP of the blade rom either so that's not it !
I would gladly test it on my hox with 1.36 hboot but I can't until tomorrow in the evening .a

when you said you still can boot into viperx, you reflash the viperx ROM or just a reboot after failed attempt to boot Blade, it boots to viperx ?
Edit: It is either you use the superwipe script provided by MarcelHofs to really make a full wipe
or on your previous step that you mentioned:
1)flash boot .img
2)wipe date/factory reset
3)Wipe cache
4)wipe davlik cache
** format system <---- do this too
5)install zip from sd card
6)then reboot...
7)then stuch on htc logo on boot? it should boot

I think there is no need for you to waste your time to test the ROM. If he run your superwipe script, it should boot.
Check your PM.

What I personally did:
1. format /system
2. wipe data/factory reset
3. clear dalvik and erase cache
4. flash ROM
5. flash boot.img
No problem..

HOX bootloop..!

Hi, I successfully Rooted my phone, made a backup with CWM and I installed TWRP, made a backup, and then flashed CleanROM, but somehow, the same ROM appeared, so I checked the forums and I flashed "fastboot boot boot.img", and then the bootloop started,
I tried many thing, read the Q&A, tried to restore my backups but nothing, I have CleanROM 6 R2.zip on my phone, have CWM and TWRP, I can switch between these 2 recovery apps, tried to cleach cache, wipe etc.. but didnt work,
Please someone help to solve this problem with the CleanROM or the stock ROM
Thanks, and sorry for my bad english.

Clean Rom :
Make a full wipe in the recovery ! Data,caches,system,android secure......all except the sdcard !
Install the cleanrom.zip and flash the boot.img
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
The cleanrom....isn't that a rom for the at&t hox (HTC one XL) what does your bootloader say ?
EVITA OR ENDEAVORU ???

If the clean rom is downloaded from the at&t forum DITCH IT NOW !!! you might end up bricked.
Do you have a link to the rom ?
Download a rom from here, from this section ! Never ....EVER go to the at&t, rogers, HTC one XL forum with a ENDEAVOURU international tegra 3 HTC one X. These are 2 completely different phones !.

Please can you link me a good ROM and tell me how to upload the rom for my phone in bootloader mode, or just tell me how to flash a new ROM? because I cant reach phone storage from my PC, I would appreciate it.

I dont know what you like, browse and check for one yourself
I can tell you how to install it.
1: enter the bootloader and flash the new boot.img
2: enter the recovery and mount the sdcard as a usb mass storage device (cwm has it under mounts and storage)
3: copy the rom.zip to the sdcard and unmount
4: perform a full wipe
5: install the new rom.zip
6: reboot

Thank you, I found one, but I would like to ask you, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1745176
This ROM will be okay?
I will inform you after the process, I hope i can fix it.

Very fine rom indeed, but what is your hboot ? If its a JB one i would go for the 3.4 JB version of the viper X
If you have a hboot that is higher then 1.28 install this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2087443
Download the full 3.4.0 rom ! NOT the 3.4.3......that one does not boot up.

Hboot sounds good to me.
I recommend doing a nandroid backup first so if anything goes wrong you can just restore from it but mind flashing your old boot.img again.

Enter the recovery and perform a full wipe
* factory reset
* wipe cache partition
* wipe dalvik cache

Then install the cm10.1 rom.zip and install the gapps (Google apps) zip.
