Hi everyone!
Yesterday i tried to root my HOX and was pretty successful with that. In the beginning at least.
First I wanted to take a look at the MIUI ROM for the one x and it worked like a charm, but I wanted to try some otherones too. So I made a backup(nandroid) of my phone working with MIUI.
The I tried Revolution HD. I had todo a "super wipe" for that. So I did.
All the time I tried to start the flashed ROM I ended up in a Bootloop.
As this didnt worked out like I wanted it, I tried almost everything in the wiki.
As this wasn't working I thought, it's may caused by the rom. So I tried another one: "Insert Coin" which looks pretty much like that, what I wanna have.
But there I have the same problem as with the Revolution HD one.
After restoring the MIUI ROM everything worked like a charm again.
My question now is:
What can I do to make the other one(s) working?
Do I really have todo the total recovery to make it work?
Check if all the steps i have posted for you below have been made:
Did you do as follows?
move your rom over to your sd card
move the boot.img into the following folder: C:\fastboot
now while your phone is set in fastboot and connected to your pc
1.) fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then do not restart your phone, but head over to recovery mode
in recovery mode:
-wipe cache
-wipe data/factory reset
-install .zip from sdcard (install rom)
Restart phone
Enjoy custom rom
????
Profit!
Sounds like you didn't flash the boot.img (properly) before installing the ROM.
Just to add to shadehh's comment, you should type:
fastboot erase cache
Before you type fastboot flash....

That's the cause of a bootloop.

Damn! Did I forgot smth?
Here's what I did:
* Download franco r11
* went into fastboot usb
* "fastboot erase cache"
* "fastboot flash boot boot_franco_r11.img "
* Went into recovery (switching off fastboot and choose recovery)
* Cleared cache and made a full wipe
* installed the insertcoin-rom (7.3.0)
Same problem again.
It starts, I can actually see the background screen and everything. the touch does not work and a few seconds later it reboots itself.
Any ideas?
Did you use the super wipe zip file ?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
No, i didn't.
I got it. I used instead of franco's boot.img the one out of the rom itself. now it's running.
Why can't I use franco's?

God..please follow this instruction..it is really easy, actually:
1. Download Fastboot files from HERE
2. Download the latest ClockworkMod Touch Recovery from HERE
3. Download your choice of ROM..place it in your sdcard.
4. Extract and place your Fastboot folder on Local Disk C..it will be easier for you..
5. Place the CWM Recovery in the Fastboot folder, rename it to recovery.img. Also extract boot.img from ROM that you have downloaded in it..
6. Reboot your phone and put it to Fastboot Mode..
7. Open Command Prompt, type in:
cd..
cd..
cd fastboot
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img <--- This is the STOCK kernel that you have extracted from the ROM
fastboot erase cache
7. Choose RECOVERY and then if you have super wipe script, flash it first. After that flash your choice of custom ROM..if you don't wanna use the super wipe script, you can also use wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache, then flash you ROM.
8. Reboot!
9. Wait until the first reboot to finish before you want to flash something like kernel or mods!

You can as long as you flash franco's kernel-modules in recovery after you flashed the boot.img and erased your cache. So, you MUST copy kernel modules to your SD before flashing the new boot.img. It also helps in kernel changes to erase your dalvik-cache under recovery-advanced before your first boot to prevent any app FCs.
Hi guys,
Need urgent assistance as I'm having a weird problem.
So I installed Viper (latest update) and everything was working fine...added numerous tweaks (statusbar, icons, etc)
Now I installed the latest version of Strobe, jotha's APM mod and SenseCream (in that order) but my phone won't start!
I can access the boot screen but it gets stuck on black screen after the modified boot screen (which worked before I installed these themes too btw)
I can still access recovery and bootloader but I can't start the phone - I'd also appreciate assistance in uninstalling these themes as they seem to be the culprit (if I can get them working, all the better ofcourse)
Any suggestions?
p.s. I have the international HTC One X with 3.14.401.31 (I believe) base
Did you flash the boot.img ?
Try to full wipe again in recovery then flash the boot.img then install the full rom. After installing, boot the phone. DO NOT flash those two add ons right away after the rom.
That also happens to me a while ago.
Hope that helps

I'll do the full wipe now...where do I find the boot.img though?
also how do I access usb to copy the full rom into the sdcard? i can't seem to access it
It's in the ROM zip . extract it and flash it through fastboot . fastboot flash boot boot.img .
If you do a full wipe, the full rom (the zip file viper rom) will remain in your virtual sd card.
First, on your computer where you save the downloaded zip file of viper rom, extract it then copy the boot.img you found inside, then place it on your fastboot files.
Next, go into your bootloader by pressing power button and volume down for about 10-15secs
In the bootloader, choose the fastboot by clicking the power botton, navigate using the volume keys.
Then connect your usb. Open a command prompt to your computer then navigate to your fastboot files. After that, flash "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
Then "fastboot erase cache"
Then go to recovery and wipe data, cache and dalvik. Finally, flash the zip file (viper rom)
make a full wipe: data, cache partition, and dalvik,

ok so I'm halfway there but still having a few problems
via fastboot I flashed boot.img and then erase cache
I still don't see the full viper rom in my sdcard though so I can't reach the next part
p.s. I'm trying not to wipe all the data as I didn't get a chance to back up...if I need to though then I'll just have to do it

where did you place the rom when you copied it from your computer? It should still be there unless you deleted it.

I probably deleted it as I installed the viper rom a long time ago...I have a copy on my laptop but I doubt I have one in the sdcard as well
Is there any way to transfer it from my laptop to the sdcard? perhaps via fastboot?
Oke, mount the sdcard in the recovery as a usb mass storage and copy the rom.zip from sdcard\O\ back to sdcard\
Then just reflash the rom.zip with only a dalvik cache and cache wipe.....always do a nandroid backup before flashing themes or mods
And after flashing a mod or theme you don't have to flash the boot.img if it goes wrong ....only the rom.zip. the theme probably broke the framework of the rom so it fails to boot properly

Ok so i got confused. I thought that you just recently installed the viper rom and not so long ago. The latest jellybean version is 3.3.2, which is what im using right now.
I've never tried flashing a full rom using fastboot command so i think a more experienced user could answer your question.
Try to access mount/storage from your recovery if you could possibly transfer data from your laptop.:thumbup:

I tried to mount USB storage via CWM but it keeps giving me error: Unable to open ums lumfile (no such file or folder)
and you are right...I'm 100% certain the theme broke the rom framework...but I can't think of a solution
Mount the freakin sdcard inside the recovery as a usb mass storage and copy the rom.zip over !

Your CWM is outdated. Flash this one: link.
Flash like this: "fastboot flash recovery filename.img" and "fastboot erase cache"

I have the latest viper rom as well (updated via OTA)
Also I'm not trying to flash the rom via fastboot (doubt its possible)...but I do need a way to copy the rom to my sdcard somehow...I have no idea how though
mount/storage isn't working I'm afraid
Yes there is no other option the framework changed for the last viper update so I think the theme is not updated yet with the proper framework
Flash this recovery , you are on a old cwm recovery
http://db.tt/Krlm4dPs
So flash the recovery, mount as mass storage and copy the rom zip, install the rom.zip and choose wipe dalvik cache and cache only !!! Then boot the phone. Then use es file explorer and set it with root functions in the settings of es file explorer ....then navigate to system/data and delete the theme.apk files you want to delete, reboot again and its gone

dude!!! I freaking love you!! haha
seriously thanks mate! I can mount USB now...so I'll copy over the viper rom and re-install the whole thing (without wiping data hopefully)
cheers!!
ok so I have finally managed to install viper rom (now doing system updates as the copy on my laptop is an old one)
so far I can't figure out how to remove the 2 themes I flashed on the phone though...strobe I "think" I found via system folder but I have no idea where the other 2 items are (SenseCream and apm mod) - any clues?
Quite a few of my apps are crashing at boot as well but I imagine this should be resolved once I've completed all the system updates
Appreciate everyone who's helped so far...thanks!!
Let us know if its all okey after all ! So either TT or me can close the thread properly
Whops. I should learn to read.
hi
i already unlock the bootloader, install custom recovery TWRP, and done a backup
i also copy my backup to PC
now i'm confuse
- i need to root the phone or can i just flash the new room?
- if i need to root the phone i found an italian guide on 4.0 and attach file, can i use that? i have 4.1.1 on mine now
i'm not interested to have HTC stock with root but what i want is to install MIUI ROM
this is the only guide i found in english that explains how to install the rom
external link (i can't post it) miuiandroid.com/community/threads/installing-the-htc-one-x-required-s-on-steps.16592/
what i understand is:
- boot my device power + menu down, to see the FASTBOOT USB i have to select FASTBOOT
- flash the boot.img
- press the power button once (HBOOT i guess), click volume down, highlight recovery & press power
- Flash the downloaded ROM via recovery normally and it followup at this link
external link (i can't post it) miuiandroid.com/community/threads/how-to-update-upgrade-miui.15424/
i need to copy the img rom in SD ROOT before starting with all this process
- now i need to Wipe data/factory reset, Cache Wipe & Dalvik Cache Wipe in all tutorial i found this is done with clockworkmod
in TWRP under menu WIPE i guess are System, Cache, Dalvik buttons
after that i'm note sure if i need to flash italian language, if i don't need and i can just download it later i tihink is not a big deal
unless is all in chinese
is the metod correct?
do i have to copy ROM file in .zip format as i download?
here where i found ROM
from official site grey button miui.com/download-7.html
OR
from UK web site miuiandroid.com/community/threads/3-4-28.20232/
the boot.img is here
point 3 miuiandroid.com/community/threads/installing-the-htc-one-x-required-s-on-steps.16592/
i'm not sure if would be better to use clockworkmod, since most tutorials use that..
thanks
Doesn't matter which recovery you use. Yes just place the zip file on your sd card. Flash boot.img as you already said. Perform a full wipe and then flash the Rom zip. Reboot and its done.
The Roms are pre-rooted so you dont need to worry about that. Italian language should be included i guess.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Heres what i do :
1) Put Rom.zip on SD card
2) Put boot.img in fastboot folder
3) fastboot erase cache
4) fastboot flash boot boot.img
5) fastboot erase cache
6) Reboot into recovery
7) Full wipe (except sd card)
8) Install rom
9) Enjoy new rom

i did my first mess but fortunally i could restore since i had copy the backup on my mac too
i don't know what went wrong but this is what happened:
- i did how was told before, but actually i download boot.img and rom from 2 different sites
- after reboot it didn't move from first screena waited for 15 minutes almost, so i did reboot in recovery tri to wipe but nothing happened
- so i decide to restore... but it did boot even if it was successful
- i thought that if i flashed the boot.img first time i may need to do it again, i found boot.emmc.win, rename it to boot.img, flash it and then i restored successfully
:victory:
now, to try a different rom i need to restore (maybe is safer)? can i copy the rom from recovery or fastboot?
what can it be wrong with my miui rom? could it be boot.img and rom file mismatch? can't find where to download both

i would try a different rom for now, viperx perhaps. and the boot image is in the rom zip, extract the boot img from the rom and put it in your fastboot folder then copy the rom to your sdcard. once you have done that, fastboot erase cache, flash the boot image, fastboot erase cache again, then back into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik just to be sure then use recovery to flash the rom and hey presto. all of the above is assuming you have the one x international tegra 3
I have htc one x european terga 3, as far as I know mini is only for tegra 3
what you describe is exactly what I did:
- I leave the rom zip ad it is, I didn't remove boot.imf that I extract, correct?
- when I flash I hit hoot fastboot, connect USB and fastboot change in fastboot USB, to go back I select Hboot and and hit power, prom there recovery
- I did unlock bootloader but did not get rooted my phone, could it be that?

@nogotaclue sorry i read so many, and some of them sayed that root was not necessary if you flash a new rom, other sayed it could still be necessary... now i rooted with the app and did a new backup that i'm coping on PC
reading further it says: to wipe, install rom, and flash boot.img after
"Now go back and press install. Go to the folder where the ROM you downloaded, is located in. Select the ROM and slide the screen to flash it. After it flashes, press the back button. Press Reboot and Reboot into bootloader. Open the ROM you downloaded from your computer. You should see boot.img. Extract it to your computer. Open my toolkit and press Flash a Kernel. Locate the boot.img and it will flash it."

I need to record calls as part of my job so i tried to follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663642
However, somehow i completely bricked my phone and i didnt make any back ups.
So far i have managed to do the following:
1. Unlock the phone via HTCdev
2. Get to the fastboot screen
3. fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
4. fastboot flash boot boot.img (from the file 3.16.110.4 which aparantly is the correct file according to CID TMOB-005)
5. fastboot erase cache
6. Then reflash recovery 'fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img'
After the above steps, my phone is now stuck on the HTC Quietly Brilliant screen.
I have been reading threads for the last two days but nothing seems to be working which is probably due to my lack of understanding.
I would be grateful for any assistance.

I took your advise to look at the guide again. However, I have checked for an automatic install RUU but there isnt one available for my phone.
I have to download the correct RUU onto my PC and follow some instructions similar to yours for the Custom Rom. However, when i install the zip from the SDcard, it states the below error:

I have now fixed this problem with a Nandroid recovery. Thanks for your help.
First of all, I want to tell that I am a beginner and do not know much about rooting and custom ROM installation.
Few days back, I became very keen to know what is custom ROM and is there any custom ROM available for my HTC One X. I searched through internet and found one, downloaded it. Rooted my phone, Unlocked bootloader. After that I installed CWM touch recovery. Everything was going great. Then, I first flashed the kernel given along with that custom ROM. it Flashed. Then, I flashed that Custom ROM. I Showed an error. I flashed it twice or thrice but it stucked on that error. Also in a Hurry, or Excitement, I forgot to take a backup of my previous ROM. After that, I switched on my phone it does nothing and stucked at HTC Bootscreen. I factory reset my phone, it wiped all data from phone. I Thought, a RUU would work, but it also doesn't worked.
I went to HTC Service Center, they are saying that motherboard will be replaced, which is almost of same cost of phone. I cannot spend so much.

Try this, flash this recovery :
https://www.dropbox.com/s/qp21ubo10xetcvn/Philz recovery 5.15.9.img
Make a full wipe and install the rom.zip. and flash the boot.img from the rom.zip
What rom were you trying to flash ?
If its a kitkat ROM you can't use cwm recovery to flash that rom.. you either use philz recovery given by mr hofs or latest twrp recovery from the twrp thread or indexed listing thread..

sorry for this stupid question. But how to use ADB Sideload..??
Just mount the sdcard in the mounts and storage menu ! No need for adb sideload
And don't just install the rom, you must perform a full wipe before that !
Factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Wipe dalvik cache
Format system
Format data
Format cache
Then install the rom !

If that doesn't work try this , this is what I did when I bricked my HTC One X:
1. Download Fastboot
2. Download adb
3. Download cm-10.2.1-endeavoru.zip (https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=endeavoru)
(I used this one , it's justs so you get your SD Card Working again and you can
put ROMS and everything on it again)
4. Download openrecovery-twrp-2.4.0.0-endeavoru-JB (http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/endeavoru)
(This one will be used because it has touch ability's and you can install ROMS with it )
4.1 Or you can download recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.7-endeavoru.img (a.k.a Philz recovery)
(This one will be used because it has touch ability's and you can install ROMS with it )
( I used Philz recovery 5.15.9.img (provided by Mr Hofs -> who is a great guy btw)
5. Download openrecovery-twrp-endeavoru-2.1.7 (http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/endeavoru
(This one will be used for adb push commands, openrecovery-twrp-endeavoru-2.1.7 has a built
in ability for your sd-Card , adb can recoginze it but the problem is your touch will not work.)
6. Go into bootloader -> fastboot and do this:
6.1 fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-endeavoru-2.1.7.img
7. Go into recovery (Hboot -> recovery)
7.1 just open the recovery, your touch will probably not work. DONT LOCK IT JUST LEAVE IT OPEN
(ADB sideload didn't work for me so that's why we are going to do this)
IF YOUR TOUCH WORKS YOU CAN SKIP STEP 8
7.2 do this command: adb devices
If you don't find your devices in this then the next steps will not work.
YOU HAVE TO SEE YOUR DEVICE
7.3 do this command: adb push cm-10.2.1-endeavoru.zip /sdcard/
You can only do cm-10.2.1-endeavoru.zip if the zip file is located in the same folder your using
with command. I'm not sure about /sdcard/ . I cant remember anymore But this will put the
but this will put the zip Directly on your SDcard.
8. Go to bootloader -> fastboot
8.1 do this command: fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.4.0.0-endeavoru-JB.img
8.2 or do this command: fastboot flash recovery Philz recovery 5.15.9.img
Your touch wasn't working but it will work now.
9. Go to booloader -> fastboot
9.1 extract the boot.img from the Download cm-10.2.1-endeavoru.zip into the fastboot folder
9.2 do this command fastboot flash boot boot.img
9.3 fastboot erase cache
10. Go back to recovery
10.1 Wipe User Data
10.2 Wipe data cache
10.3 Go to advanced -> wipe Dalvik Cache
11. Install zip from sdcard
11.1 Choose cm-10.2.1-endeavoru.img
11.2 Install the zip WITH full wipe
12. After the install, reboot. You should have a full functional HTC ONE X now
13. Now but your ROM's(ZIP FILES)/Recovery(ZIP FILES)/Kernels and everything you want on your HTC because
You can see your HTC on your PC again!
I tried adb push.. But i cant find the pushed zip on sd card in recovery.. Moreover i tried flashing using fastboot command i.e. fastboot flash zip rom.zip it ended with an error <remote not allowed>

For maximus hd do this :
Flash Philz 5.15 and mount the sdcard and wait literally minutes to let the sdcard pop up, copy the rom, do a full wipe and install it then also flash the boot.img from the maximus rom in the bootloader and reboot the phone
Don't make this so hard on yourself !
Philz 5.15 recovery is not flashed. And ended with an error 0xa . any other way??
