Hi to all,
Good day to all who is reading and helping.
I am not very sure if this question have been asked before but looking at the first few pages of tread, I did not come across this question, else i am pretty much blind. heehee.
I am having this problem with my rooted HTC One X (asia version). Previously I could go into the recovery mode in Hboot to perform backup and recovery but recently when I select recovery at Hboot, the phone with show a logo of a phone surrounded by green circular arrows and followed by a logo of a phone with a huge exclamation mark. It will remain so until I press and hold the power button to restart the phone.
The phone is working fine otherwise.
Is there any way for me to get the recovery to work again? I am using clockwork mod btw.
Could any bro or sis help me with the above issue?
Thank you all in advance.
Cheers
It seems to me that you have the stock recovery installed. You can flash the cwm custom recovery again.....
Or did u get a notification from an update to JB in your running OS. Boot it up and check if you have an update waiting.

What do you mean by stock recovery installed?
Yes, I have a JB update waiting to be installed.
Previously I have to go through some steps to prevent my rooting from being wipe out before performing an OTA update and one of them is to head into the recovery of Hboot before running some app to prevent the removal of root.
Just a quick info, I did not install custom rom on my phone, just a stock rooted phone.
Thank you.
If everything is 100% stock except the recovery , you have to flash the stock recovery back. It tries to update to JB but it runs in an error because of the (what i assume now) custom cwm recovery

No, I have not perform the JB update yet.
I am just trying to access the recovery at HBoot but got that error.
Is there a way to check if it is stock recovery or custom cwm recovery?
Thank you.
Don't know really, well if you flash the stock recovery over the existing one you will have for certain the stock
And if you downloaded the update it will continue to try to update everytime you enter the recovery, you said you are using clockworkmod recovery (5.8.4.0 ?)

Hi MarcelHofs,
I dont think so, it should either be 5.8.2.7 or 5.8.3.1.
I just hope to upgrade to JB without losing my root.

you will want 5.8.4.0
Did you want to install a custom JB rom or a stock JB ota update?

I think for the moment I would just like to have a stock JB OTA update and hoping that it wont wipe up the setup I currently have in my phone.
Is there anyway to do that?

If you go into HBOOT and select recovery and you are getting those green arrows, you have the right recovery for installing the JB stock OTA so you don't need CWM yet, Does it say relocked or locked at the top of the HBOOT screen mate?
If it's unlocked, run the command, "fastboot oem lock" as you need to have the HBOOT locked with stock recovery installed for the OTA to install
Also the OTA won't delete any apps or settings
---------- Post added at 03:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:40 PM ----------
Actually, that exclamation mark you are mentioning is ringing alarm bells, you may need to reflash the stock recovery via fastboot, can you post a pic of the recovery screen you get? I will be home in an hour and can upload the file you need

Yes it is unlock.
At HBOOT, the green arrows is follow by a red exclamation mark if I select recovery, so I can still install JB OTA?
To run the command, my phone have to be in fastboot mode?

Hi MarcelHofs,
Thanks for taking time to look into my problem.
Hey, you have a great day at work thought overtime doesn't sound too nice a thing.
Cheers and thanks again.
Hi home now
what you need to do is put the attachment into your fastboot folder (where your unlocktoken.bin was when you unlocked your bootloader.)
Since your bootloader is unlocked, boot your phone into fastboot and then connect it to your pc
open a command prompt and link it to your fastboot folder (cd c:\fastboot - or whatever your path to this folder is)
then type the command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed_1.28.img
then type the command
fastboot oem lock
your Hboot/bootloader should then say relocked at the top and you will have the stock recovery installed.
reboot the phone, download the update and before long you should be basking in the fabled JB goodness
let me know if any problems

no worries bro
Back home !
Are we sure he needs the 1.28 stock recovery and not for example the 2.17 stock recovery.....these are different ?!
Please do this command in fastboot USB mode
Fastboot getvar version-main and post the result ....if it starts with 2.17 you need this recovery

hi… can i perform the update after i root my htc one x?.. if can,can u teach me hw to do it coz i dont knw wht to do after download it and my HP restart.. then an android green robot come out ><.. thx
If you're doing OTA, you need stock ROM (rooted is ok, modded maybe not) and stock recovery.
fastboot flash recovery signed_recovery.img
If you're doing RUU, you need to be locked.
fastboot oem lock

You seem to have some form of learned helplessness. What part of my previous post don't you understand? Are you doing OTA or RUU? What specific errors do you have?
At least help us to help you.

You said you were rooted right? You have to go the other route. I hadn't rooted or anything yet (got mine 2 days ago) so I was able to do the RUU update. Do you have stock or custom recovery? Sorry, I am just learning HTC myself. I have my PhD in Samsung devices

clockwork recovery isn't the stock recovery. is your bootloader unlocked?
first you need the fastboot files -> Number 2 of this thread
save them to a folder e.g. C:\fastboot
then download the right RUU an follow this thread.
or try this thread.
important is that you have the right RUU matching to your cid. Just read through the forum about flashing stock/costum roms and you will automatical learn how to do this.
Hi folks,
So, you wanna try the JB leak but want to use ICS after that? Yes, it's possible. Even if you upgraded your HBOOT. And quite simple.
1. First, make a full nandroid backup of your favourite ICS ROM.
2. Then follow the instructions provided by the JB-chefs.
3. Testdrive the JB ROM
4. Reboot your phone into recovery
5. Restore your nandroid backup
6. Reboot your phone
7. if there's a bootloop, then boot bootloader, then recovery and flash the boot.img provided by your ICS ROM-chef.
And that's all. I did this and it's working. Hope that helps other users as well.

No the problem is that when you brick your device going to the new hboot there is no way back. There is no RUU with JB !

Indeed. But if you do exactly what the tutorial says, and follow the devs instructions, it's hard to brick your phone. Though it's possible...
Anyway, it's up to you... You should take the risk, or sit back, relax, and wait for the official JB RUU.

HI
I get a big issue!
First of all thanks for your post!
2ndly, I got a One X with S-Off yep lucky man!
But here is my issue:
I succeed in installing the Maximus custom rom And I am s-off so this is cool, but I have forget to use the update script.
So I decided to create a new zip with this update and flash it with the recovery!
But the flash aborted!
Once again, same result!
Then I say... Hum something wrong, I tried with the original custom rom.zip from Football! The installation aborted once again!
So I try to relock the bootloader (fastboot oem lock) succeed
Flash the PJ46IMG.zip (fastboot flash zip PJ46IMG.zip)
Unlock the bootloader (fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code_OneX.bin , I changed the name)
But since this moment my phone can't use fastboot command...
I have restarted the phone and no usb detection from the computer :s
and I try with fastboot usb: fastboot devices
Nothing
fastboot flash zip recovery.zip (waiting for device)
recovery and there is a phone with blue triangle!
I tried to use a RUU, but the phone is not detected by USB, so it doesn't succeed!
Then I do a factory reset... still nothing :s
I am locked with S-Off and can't use fastboot!
Do you have any idea about how I can do something???
Thanks for all your answers!

Can you flash any other rom based on ICS or other AOSP JB Roms with a ICS kernel like IceColdJelly?
Is the battery life better with the new hboot?

You should be able to revert to an ICS rom on the new hboot (reflash ICS boot.img and then restore nandroid backup) but apparently the AOSP roms don't work. Users on the new hboot and JB roms do comment that the battery life is much improved.

Hello everyone.
I just rooted my phone using hasson2000 all in one tool kit, and everything works great.
I am in the UK, with network called Three. (currently waiting for the JB update)
I am currently running android 4.0.4 with sense 4.1.
My question to you folks is will be able to receive OTA updates?
I have heard having a unlocked boot loader prevents the phone from receiving OTA updates.... is this true ?
And will re-locking the bootloader mean I will be able to download OTA update?
I know this is a lot to ask, but as this is my first time I am still what you might call me a noob.
Any help would me much appreciated.
Regards,
Shaazzaarr.
If you did NOT make any changes to the rom, like deleting bloatware and system apps. Then you are still able to fully update the phone. Bootloader can stay unlocked and root too. Don't worry about that.
What you need is
1: stock rom (root is no problem)
2: stock boot.img
3: stock recovery

Hey thanks for the reply.
I'm using the stock rom, haven't touched anything. But i am not using the stock recovery - currently using twrp.
Will i still be able to receive ota updates with a custom recovery? or do I have to do the whole ruu thing?
No you can check and receive ota's you are just not able to actually update, you need to flash back the stock recovery to update. That's all :thumbup:

And does flashing stock recovery mean I lose super su and root previlages?
Hey, I appreciate all the help.
Thanks.
No you only lose the SU when you officially update the phone. Flashing back the stock recovery will not change the rom or root !

Then copy it to the fastboot folder on the pc, put the phone in fastboot usb mode and flash with commands
Fastboot erase cache

This will flash the stock over the twrp recovery ....then you are able to receive and update the phone

Fastboot files as you wish
http://db.tt/ldx3qOOU
But isn't the tool capable of flashing a provided recovery ( like the stock i gave you ) ?
I never use tools
Place the files in a folder like this
C:\fastboot\*fastboot and adb files from my link*
From there you can run the command in a dosprompt so its looks like this
C:\fastboot\fastboot erase cache
And put the phone in bootloader menu before you run the command, hold the power button and the volume down button together until it restarts to the bootloader (you should see there the text *fastboot usb*)
Then you can flash ....

do you have fasboot adb on your pc ?
you need to unlock your bootloader and re flash a custom recovery
if not search the dev section for a tool that will unlock your boot and re-flash a custom recovery for you-all the instructions are on there.
once you have re unlocked and flashed a custom recovery,go into recovery and see if there are any backups of the previous rom (nand)
see if that works ..

If you wanna go back to stock and are stuck at bootloop you have to flash the boot.omg file for your stockrom .

According to the hboot (1.12) you need a 2.17 based ruu .... but i can't find it !
Tthe basic steps now are
Unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery
http://db.tt/Krlm4dPs
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140
Get your nandroid backup there,(the vodap021 2.17) you need to flash the boot.img file from that nandroid with fastboot commands, then do a full wipe in recovery and restore the nandroid.
But you still have to fix the fastboot part right ? You need to install android SDK/java SDK and the HTC drivers. Then you have to put the phone in the bootloader and open a commandprompt from inside the folder where the adb/fastboot files are located ...they are in a subfolder in the installed javaSDK install folder

Thanks, it is beginning to make some sense to me now.
So first bit I got to do is the fastboot issue, which is tha last bit you mentioned right?
And after unlock boot loader than flash the recovery with one you provided in the link, tx
So that means I will go back to stock right?
Yes unlock, flash custom recovery, flash boot.img, full wipe in recovery, restore the nandroid, flash back the stock recovery .....
And yes this way you go back to stock and i will also give you the download link for the stock recovery. This one is the last you flash after restoring everything
http://db.tt/U5CK4noo
Then you are able to update to JB from within the phones software update menu :thumbup:
Ps you do not have to relock the bootloader anymore !

Please guys, iWe spent all day trying to figure it out, after wipe phone reboots constantly and when if boot screen it's not charging so I'm prob going to run out of battery in a couple of hours
You restore through the custom recovery. Power+vol , choose recovery. If you flashed the recovery ok then you can do from in there. Ie mount usb, copy over your nand backup and restore it. You may have to flash the boot.img using fastboot.

There is no ruu for that, but there is a nandroid backup of the stock rom you can use

Thanks mate. the restore worked and I was able to get the phone back working. Now to do some backups
I had previously been trying to restore to stock in order to bring it back to the shop under warranty (yellow/brown patch on screen on top right).
Thanks

Just trid that to version 1-28 I think and I'm getting the dreaded red triangle
I thought that was a clean versio so maybe something else is wrong. Any ideas?
Uhm wait .... You flashed back a 1.28 stock recovery on a 3.14 rom. That's not going to work.
And what is your goal now actually after the restore ?
And where do you get a red triangle ? When you boot up the phone or when you try to enter the stock recovery ?
When you enter a stock recovery there will always be a warning sign like you describe, we are not supposed to go in there
This is a stock 3.14 recovery

OK, I have now flashed 3.14 and booted into it. first time around it showed the normal icon for a while and then restored my system. Second time around when I booted into recovery is shows the red triangle over the image of a screen. Flashing CWM seems to be ok.
bootloader version: 1.36.0000
version-main: 3.14.161.27
cid: has changed to VODAP001
Should I startt again from the nandroid?
My aim is to fully restore the phone to stock and then lock it before I bring it back to the shop for hardware repair on the yellow/brown patch.
Does the phone boot up properly ?
I don't know if there is a nandroid that also matches your cid ?
Fastboot oem readcid
Will tell the real cid.
Do that and we check if there is one actually available.

yep, it boots ok into wwm (after reflash) and into the main system but not into recovery if I flash stock.
I can make calls etc and everything seems normal.
Only software issue now seems to be that I can't flash stock recovery successfully
So when you flash the stock recovery the phone does not boot ?
Oke give the cid with the command, lets check that out
Crap....you wrote it in the title....overread it all the way !!!
I have an idea that might work !
Get the nandroid 2.17.161 vodap 001 and restore that one completely !
Then flash back this recovery
https://www.dropbox.com/s/wbav46spkbznovp/stock recovery 2.17.img
Then boot up the phone and update with official ota.
It worked before with and O2 nandroid .... Its worth a shot mate

Phone itself works with stock recovery but it won't boot into stock recovery itself without red triangle.
I've just been trying to change the cid with "fastboot oem writecid VODAP019" but I keep gettin either "too many links" or "unknow error". Itried tried but with the phone locked and unlocked :crying:
I'll keep trying to see if that will let me flash the stock recovery successfully and boot into it.
Mick
Hahaha that's the trick, the stock recovery is supposed to give you that warning sign ! That is absolutely normal. When you see that triangle screen you press volume - and power and it should enter the stock recovery. (Could also be volume +, can't recall it in my mind atm)
And you can't write a cid, we need S-OFF to do that .....

immediately follwed by the main system update as expected
Yeah that's because the stock recovery can't mount it, the error is also normal. There is not much to do with the stock recovery.....
If the updates go well you het back the original stock JB rom and cid back !
Is it working .... the updates ?

Hi, the updates took a long time to download. Everything is now working and back to stock.

Good ! Hope you get the fix sorted too :thumbup:
CASE CLOSED !
Sorry for reviving an old thread. But this one seems closest to what I'm stuck on, so hopefully someone can help.
I was running a viperX rom on my htc one X for quite sometime, after updating the rom it was working fine but all of a sudden it stopped picking up any mobile network. Stupidly I deleted everything from recovery (cache, data on the sd card, the android OS, everything!). - No backup unfortunately.
I read about going back to stock, re-locked the bootloader and attempted to install via an RUU. My HTC One X is exactly the same as the one by mccmick, running 3.14.161.27 of the HTC software. Can't find an RUU for it anywhere.
But what do I do now? It ran out of battery, so I used command prompt to get the phone to change a little bit, then re unlocked the bootloader using hasoon2000's tool kit and installed the lastest version of CWM recovery so the phone can charge via mains.
There is no root access on the phone at the moment, can't access the internal sd card to put any ROM or superSU files on there. Mounting the sdcard for usb use via recovery does not work.
How do I resolve? I can't put a nondroid backup to the phone. Ideally I would like to go back to stock, but even if I can just install a rom and get everything working again, I'd be very happy.
Is there any command prompts I can use to send files over to the phone? Send a kernel, rom and root files over?
Should mention my phones cid is VODAP001 and running 3.14.161.27.
