First of all, I would like to thank ClydeB1 for his amazing guide.
I followed his guide to getting back to stock after flashing a custom ROM.
I downloaded 3.14.401.27 ruu and the related stock recovery as pointed in his guide.
I followed the procedures and everything went smooth (the device is back to stock and is working very well) except for this little thing:
when I boot in bootloader mode and try to go in recovery mode I get the red triangle signal.
I tried to flash the stock recovery in unlocked mode several times but still I get the same signal.
My HTC ONE X has 1.36 boot and the main version is the one mentioned above.
Thank you in advance and sorry for my horrible english
the red triangle warning sign with the phone is normal. Don't worry, if you see his sign you can press vol - and power (or just the power button, can't remember) and you will enter the stock recovery !
to enter stock recovery, u have to press (vol up+ power) after u select recovery option from bootloader menu. Do this ONLY after u have selected the recovery option from the bootloader menu, if done on any other screen u may brick ur device.
Flash stock recovery n Do what I said above.

Im fully rooted, and I was able to flash to Fresh's rom. I guess not deleting the Pc36*** file, when it rebooted, i panicked (lol) and reinstalled the stock rom...
Now I have absolutely no idea how to get back to the green recovery screen where I can flash from zip...
Is it me, is it a adb thing?
Any help is greatly appreciated....
if you have a custom recovery: power the phone off, hold volume down and then press the power button. Continue to hold volume down. Make sure the pc img is off the sd card, wait for it to go through the motions then enter recovery

Where do i go from here partner?
yeah, so try doing what I said above. Turn off phone, hold volume down, press power and release and continue holding down. You will get to hboot and it will scan for the pcimg and should not find it and present you with a menu. Go to recovery and that should be it

I did so, and its just sitting idle with the phone & red triangle. My only option from here is vol up and power to take me to the blue reboot screen...
Thanks for the help by the way...
hmmm, I would have thought you would have a custom recovery from Part II of toast's rooting guide. Have you unlocked your nand through that procedure?
in any case, you can always download rom manager from the market, and that will allow you to install a custom recovery and boot into recovery from android. I am not sure if the new version requires nand unlock so make sure you have done part II of toasts root guide

I was able to flash from the green recovery screen tho. Im not understanding this. I even updated the radio and wimax thru the same green screen...
Thanks for your help..
how were you flashing before? did you use clockwork recovery (i think thats what it's called) through rom manager?
I dont think that I have clockwork on my phone. I was able to vol dwn/power, hboot would see the PC36*** because I was not informed to delete it, and instead of updating i selected NO, and it took me to the green recovery screen...
Ok, so I would try flashing the recovery from the second part of Toast's rooting guide. If you can do that, then you can just use the volume + power thing to get to hboot, then select recovery and it should take you into the recovery that you flashed. From that recovery you can wipe flash backup, and all that good stuff.
you dont need to do the whole part 2 over, just the part about flashing the custom recovery.

this will completely restore his phone to stock. ie; what ever rom he was using before, so be aware he is goint to lose everything.
yank the battery, put it back in
reboot into recovery
(hold Vol. Down and then hit the power button for like 2 seconds, once in the white screen with menu [fastboot] use vol. down to highlight recovery and hit power button) (if the fastboot menu asks if you want to flash the PC36Img file tell it NO. and it will take you back to the regular fastboot menu.)
do a full wipe
restore a nand backup or just reflash the rom he was using.
trying it now
it says no image

bump?........
I've flash my SGW to RZrecovery but somthings goes wrong after that , i cant get in Android and i've tried many way but still cant restore my backup .
Is there any way that i can restore back the default Recovery mode , coz i wan to do a factory reset....
You mean the stock recovery before you flash RZrecovery? Download a stock ROM/firmware from samfirmware.com and flash it via Odin. Automatically, everything will return into stock, and your phone will be unrooted.
Hope that helps.

I don't use RZrecovery so I cannot confirm this, but to access download mode, turn off your phone. After it's off, hold the VolDown+Home+Power buttons, and release the power button once the exclamation mark appears. Then, press the VolUp button to go to download mode.
You may mess up yourself if you go to recovery mode instead. Don't mix up those modes.

hey guys, i flashed stock recovery from Hasoon's Toolkit.but when i boot into bootloader and select recovery.it shows an exclamation mark in red.....why does the recovery not open????
Because you need to press vol up + power to get into stock recovery.
But why do you want to go into stock recovery ?
If you want to flash a custom ROM, you need a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP.
P.S Never ever press Vol up + Power when you are at any other screen other than after you select recovery as it may brick your device.

Hi everyone, some help is needed. Mistakenly when rooting my stock T805 with CF autoroot, tired and sleepy, I flashed it in Odin in BL (bootloader) and not in AP box as I should. Soft bricked it, couldn't go back to stock, somehow managed to install recovery, from there to some AOSP rom and finally to Xtrolite (which is great) .Anyhow, all is working now, EXCEPT, i still cannot flash stock rom in Odin, seems i destroyed bootloader but then again, I flashed stock bootloader-only file, i got recovery, any rom etc. Help is needed what to do??
Also, is this normal that VOL UP+ POWER+ HOME wont enter recovery?? I remember this when i bought it, with knox 0x0 and now also, with TWRP, i have to use an app to reboot to recovery?! weird...
Cheers!
If you had trashed the bootloader you wouldn't even have a bootable device, it would be bricked.
Not getting into recovery is purely pilot error.
You need to give more details regarding flashing the stock rom, screen shots etc.
Part of the problem was that i couldn't enter recovery with button combo but needed to have working rom with special app or 4 way reboot mod. When flashing stock rom (either 4.4.2 or 5.0) at the end of the proccess it says: FAIL (red).

You need to post a screen shot of the flash process in Odin.
I'll reiterate, regarding entering recovery mode is 99% of times user error.
From power off hold POWER + HOME + VOL UP until recovery boots.

Tnx. Finally managed to find some time and clear this one out. It was LP bootloader issue, appareantly you can go back only to some 4.4.2 bootloaders/roms and some not.
