[Q] I think i soft-bricked my phone. need advice on next step - HTC One X

Hey guys, im going to be as detailed as possible.
Couple of days ago i rooted my One X and it was all good, had installed a custom ROM and everything. But i found out that whatsapp doesnt play nice with custom ROMs. Sicne i need whatsapp( Yeah i tried to download LINE but i cant download large apps(?)) i decided to go back to the stock OS. I had a backup of nandroid on clockwork recovery mod and restored it. But it didnt get past the boot screen. Cleared cache etc still no dice. So i thought it would be a good idea to unroot my phone.No,no it wasnt.
I followed all the unrooting steps, locked the bootloader. Well here is my problem, when i tried to run the RUU it aid i had the wrong one. So i think i have found the right RUU but during the searching my battery went below 30%. Everytime i on/reboot the phone it just goes to fastboot. Am i wasting my time with this RUU stuff? or is it the way to fix my phone? If i it means anything, my cid is htc_44.
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Ok guys i really need your help, i cant even re-unlock the bootloader because the battery is too low. Whenever i try and charge it just goes to fastboot. Even if i try and powe it down it goes back into fastboot

what happends when you plug the phone in the wallcharger and boot into fastboot and then choose powerdown .... Does it start to charge and do you see a red charging light come on !
Otherwise you have to search for the batt charge script
This is the one i found
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658084

Dude you should have flashed the boot.img file for stock and none of this would have happened. That was the only step you were missing

It just goes back into fastboot. Im currently charging my battery with the bat file. After its charged what do i do? unlock bootloader and go in clockworld recovery to charge then do the RUU

Well my best guess is that you run the ruu directly after charging
Keep the phone in fastboot USB mode and run the ruu from pc with admin rights !!!

Phone is still charging, going to try RUU in a few minutes.

You can charge it from Clockworkmod 5.8.4.0, which is quicker and will charge more than the script.

Help me unbrick my new toy :)

OK, yesterday after rooting and booting the handset and flashing the interim CWM I flashed the "Remove 3 dots menu" mod but that has caused a boot loop.
I can get into HBOOT and Recovery just fine. (I do not have a nandroid backup)
I have tried to run the appropriate RUU (TMob UK) but it tells me that the battery is too low. (below 30%)
I have had it turned off (Fastboot - powerdown) and charging for a considerable time but still get that error.
Any help is appreciated. I wasnt panicking before but now I am starting to.
Thanks

I'll leave it charging in recovery for a while but there is no indication that it is charging. No red light.
Interestingly, while I had it charging whilst powered off it powered its self on after about an hour... not sure why.
Charge it while powered off, if anything you know that works. Leave it up until green.
I don't know if fast boot interferes with charging though.
The only way I know to actually power it off is by Hboot>Fastboot>Power off
When I do this i do get a red charging light after it has been plugged in for a second or two. I'll try again soon.
Anyone know any way to check the battery level?
The led goes green i think?
Mod or Die
Eventually, I would hope so, but I was hoping for a method to check to see if it was charging at all...

Boot into fastboot and use a different version RUU
Could you be a bit more specific? A different version of the TMob RUU?

Hi,
please,i've the same problem.
Can you give me more information about?
I've bootloader unlocked and Cwm recovery in!!!
OK, first I charged it up by letting it boot normally into boot loop and leaving it plugged in for a couple of hours.
After that it was a simple case of booting into hboot, then fast boot. Once in fast boot relock the boot loader and while still in fast boot run the RUU on your computer and follow the onscreen instructions

No, you need to charge the phone first!
Yep, I found I had to charge it for a long time before it worked. Leave it for about six hours, in boot loop.

Please - explain with details what you did- you only relock the bootloader, or change it with original one, or else.
Try creating a batch file using :
" @echo off
:start
fastboot getvar battery-voltage
fastboot reboot-bootloader
ping /n 6 localhost >nul
goto start
"

Leave that running for a bit.
im just relock the bootloader but it have custom rom with custom recovery but i cant access to them...i creat this batch and it goes from 3000mv to 3240 then it goes down to 3210.. i dont know how charge it
it just stuck on bootloader i cant do anything
If your battery is above 10% you can still flash via fastboot.
Assuming you relocked because you want to return to stock, Do the following:
Unlock bootloader again (battery must be above 10% to fastboot flash)
Flash CWM Recovery.
Flash boot.img of custom ROM
Flash custom ROM.
Charge phone to 100%.
Relock bootloader.
Run RUU.
If that doesn't work, you'll have to leave the script posted above running overnight with the phone connected and try again in the morning.
i use the script but sometimes goes up and sometimes goes down..how many hours i need to let the battery 3680mv?
the script cant charge more than 3586 what i can do?
Gan you get into Fastboot now?

Go into hboot and select the option to power device off.? This way it keeps charging and device stays off. It only goes on if you replug the cable.

Other option that work but u should sweat is... Start the pbone, once u get stuck re start again, this gives the phone little amount of charge, but while u r doing this, should try to flash recovery cwm. It s a long trip bro. But it works, i helped three friends wirh this method.

I had a similar situation, but choosing power off caused it to reboot all the time for some reason.
how many minutes i need to charge it?
i use the script charge.bat..but when it come to 3583v it goes down why?
i dont know how to power off and restart it again?
i think my phone is dead no way to fix it
Just follow my instructions on page 1. If you can get into fastboot to flash a proper recovery you're fine!
Unlock bootloader again (battery must be above 10% to fastboot flash)
Flash CWM Recovery.
Flash boot.img of custom ROM
Flash custom ROM.
Charge phone to 100%.
Relock bootloader.

[SOLVED] Bricked HTC One X, not charging cannot RUU less than 30% battery

Hi guys, im new here and I would like to seek help to fix my phone. I searched for similar threads but like this but my situation is different.
So I bricked my HOX last night (long story and because of the other things I did in panic some of which I cant remember a full story may not be relevant) but here is my situation
Now my battery says its too low to flash so I cant RUU flash
Its also re-locked and because battery is low, I cant flash the unlock (FAILED: battery low)
Im also not sure which CWM version I have. I do remember I flashed 5.8.4.0 at some point but Im not too sure if I overwrote with another. (So im not sure which CWM I have installed)
All these I tried today thinking I have 30% battery because I left the phone plugged to the wall last night but apparently the phone didnt charge thats why Im in this situation (battery too low to flash)
Now I managed (I think so) to turn off the phone, the screen isnt on (But there is no red light). But I will leave it plugged to the wall anyway (using HTC cable and charger)
edit: the phone screen is on, im leaving it plugged to the wall and there is this red warning saying battery level is too low to flash (so Im not sure if its charging)
Anything I can do to fix this problem?
Thanks!

I had a similar issue. Although you are a silly bugger for panicking and then forgetting what you did.
The only things I can suggest, assuming you still have 5.8.4.0 I think it charges in this version? See of you can do that...
If not, I am not sure.
I assume you did a nandroid and have tried restoring it?
Did you remember to flash the boot.img before installing the ROM that I assume bricked your phone?

Im not sure if the current one is 5.8.4.0. I do remember flashing it last night but maybe it did'nt work coz after that I charged the phone overnight (well for about 5 hours or so) and it still "battery too low to flash"
as for nandroid, I know I pressed backup at then the CWM but that was everything got bricked. Now I dont know if its still relevant (when the phone was unlocked I did go to CWM backup and it said phone is restored but that didnt help. Nothing happened and I could not boot)
I do remember that I flashed with boot.img from the "aokp_ICJ421-V2.0" but then again Im not sure if thats relevant since I did so many flashing and unflashing and what not :crying:
So now Im in a situation where I want to do the RUU but I cant because battery is too low, and Im not sure if its charging because Im not sure what my CWM version is but I cant flash the CWM to latest anyway because 1. phone is relocked 2. phone battery is too low to flash to either unlock or update CWM version :crying:
edit:
The RED LED light is on. Is it charging? But the screen is also on =(

Bootloader / HTC screen bootloop help ):

So me being the impatient guy that I am decided to unroot/relock my HoX. I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859714
I downloaded the nandroid that matched my ID, HTC_044. Restored the backup, all was fine but the ROM was rooted. Flashed stock recovery and kernel too.
I then deleted the SU files from system/app and system/bin and /xbin. Rebooted, but somehow SU was still there. So I deleted the files again and wanted to boot into stock recovery to do a wipe.
So I boot into the bootloader, tried getting into recovery. Had the red ! exclamation mark. So I flashed the recovery again and that's where the problem started. My phone is going crazy right now.
It's bootlooping at the HTC quietly brilliant screen. 2 seconds and it reboots forever. I tried forcing my way into the bootloader, but then the bootloader has a mind of it's own and bootloops as well. Whenever I manage to get into the bootloader, it boots for 2 seconds then it goes back into bootlooping.
Here's a video of everything happening. I need help! Battery is at 100% last I checked, but it's been bootlooping for 3 hours now ):
Nobody? ): My phone's been bootlooping for 7 hours now D:

The problem is that he can't stay in it more than 2 seconds... Mmm
Maybe fastboot erase cache will help.

EDIT : I got lucky and managed to fastboot erase cache but it's still bootlooping. I've got the RUU ready and rom.zip extracted, but with the bootloader looping as well, I don't know what to do.
Why don't you try running the RUU?? I know the phone needs to be in connection with the PC all the time but still.. worth a try...
If you can't access bootloader on the One X, it's a hard brick!
You can try to start the ruu, hope it works. But i have my doubts.
Nothings else you can do atm, maybe somebody with more knowledge or this experience pops up !

Why don’t try to open it and disconnect the battery. I think letting it drain out doesn’t mean the battery is 0% (no power).

He is full stock ATM and even the bootloader is relocked, he has better chance of claiming warranty via HTC and letting them fix it instead of opening it himself and trying to fix it (which I doubt would be of any help)... again there's a chance that he could damage or tear one of the cables while doing it...
@ OP
If you don't get any solution within two days, it's better you send it to HTC if you are still under warranty... If you have experience opening up the device, then go with @moom999 soln...:good:

HOX constantly rebooting after official HTC update to jelly bean

Hi,
After updating the software using the "software updates" from the settings to Jelly Bean, the device won;t start up, it will show the HTC splash screen and reboot.
I tried to do a factory reset and to shutdown the device but every time i connect the charger it will start up again and enter an infinite loop, I cannot flash a new recovery or firmware.zip using the fastboot because the device does not have enough battery (I tried recharging it using a script that will loop and enter it to reload bootloader but it is not enough, I got it up to 10%, no more)
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Doron
Try leaving your phone to charge overnight and unlock its bootloader the next morning than follow the required steps to flash a recovery. On the recovery itself, try to make a factory reset of your stock rom and see whether it can still work or not.
If can't than you'll just have to give custom rom a try to see how it goes than

Not so easy, he tried using the script to charge and it's not going up. You have to start there, that's the main problem !
Make sure the script runs with admin rights, and use only the original HTC usb cable and connect it straight to a powered usb 2.0 port on the pc (no hubs, extension cords)
Keep it running for a long time, that process may take many hours.
Fastboot getvar all is not needed, the script tells you exactly what the batt level is after each reboot.
Keep trying the script, it's the only way to charge now. Try to get it just over 10%, it's enough to flash. If you get to that point you flash this recovery asap !
https://www.dropbox.com/s/yqzlpqo8illa53j/Philz recovery 5.15.9.img
And enter it. Hook the phone up to the main (wall outlet) charger and let it charge to a 100% then we can continue

Keep trying the script, it's the only way to charge now. Try to get it just over 10%, it's enough to flash. If you get to that point you flash this recovery asap !

And enter it. Hook the phone up to the main (wall outlet) charger and let it charge to a 100% then we can continue

Thank you all for your answers!
I got it yesterday to about 10%, so maybe i will be able to do it again, can you tell me how can I flash this recovery? I saw that the boot loader is locked (On the top of the bootloader there is a pink line sais locked) can I still flash?
Ah no...but since you are locked you have warranty !
Don't unlock it before you let yourself informed about that !!!
Unlocking the bootloader is needed in order to flash anything except a ruu. But for a ruu you need minimal 30% of battery

That is what i was afraid of, do you think i can get to 30% with this method?
How do i unlock the bootloader?
I talked to HTC today, because the 1 year has passed they suggested only out of warranty repair so...
What do you suggest?
My suggestion is to try the sctipt and run a ruu first.
We need a fastboot command to get the correct one
Fastboot getvar version-main
Otherwise it's getting over 10% and unlock, flash a recovery and continue from there.
Unlocking goes via the HTC dev site.

Will i be able to flash ruu after replacing the recovery?
How will i know that i got to 30% ?
Flashing a ruu doesnt need any changes to the phone ! It's locked and stock. Ruu's can be flashed straight away that way. See if you can reach that 3700-3800 mV
I finally got it to 3785....
My phone is s-off with cid:11111111 so I tried to run the following RUU:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.31_R_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_302015_signed
And I got img error, any thoughts?
OK,
Because i couldn't install the other RUU, I thought I should upgrade my hboot, I used the JBFWFlasher tool from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1924003
This changed my hboot to 1.33 and my cid to 621
So I downloaded and flashed:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_hTC_Asia_TW_3.14.709.20_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_292865_signed
Finally the system is up and running.
I am still checking to see if everything is working, do you think i will be able to update to 4.2.2?
Thanks a lot guys for all your help
What's your main version
Fastboot getvar version-main
And did you run the ruu with admin rights ?
Another option is to flash the 3.14.401 firmware, that will lift the hboot to 1.39. It's stable and then you can install any rom you want. Then you have at least a clean sense 5 rom.
Finally!
After flashing the ruu I managed to get the system up and running, I even managed to get to OTA for 4.2.2 ROM with sense 5, it seems to work fine now
Thank you very much.
Nice job !
CASE CLOSED !
