i did flash a stock recovery on it that's why i was able to get updates in the 1st place
Then you missed one or more of the following:
-stock ROM
-stock recovery
-stock kernel

You didn't say you flashed the boot.img from your backup.

i did flash boot.img from the backup yet it didn't work
You really did a full wipe ? Caches , dalvik cache ..... i have no doubt you restored it correctly but you might forgot something to wipe then. Can't think of any other reason
Edit : also do a full wipe before restoring the nandroid

For a nandroid restore to work properly in CWM, the path to the images needs to be EXACTLY the same as it was when you created it. For example, if when you did the backup, the file was located in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2012.06.30.07.30.00, then you need to make sure that that path is exactly the same. Otherwise, you will need to regenerate the MD5, and then it will work by doing this:
adb shell
cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2012-06-30.07.30.00
rm nandroid.md5
md5sum *.* > nandroid.md5
exit
EDIT: And please change your title. Your phone is not bricked. Bricked means it is as useful as a brick -- i.e., it does not work anymore and it cannot be fixed without returning it. You may have messed up the firmware, but your device certainly works just fine.

What recovery are you using and how exactly did you try to restore?
If you renamed the backup make sure there are no spaces

If you can get to recovery then you are definitely NOT bricked.

i just wanted to know since a nandroid backup backs up the boot.img of a rom as well as the data, could i make different "stock" backups of roms and just format the system and factory reset and restore roms from backups? like say i back up pacman rom, then go to stock. can i just reflash pacman without the boot.img (say i dont have a computer) and restore the backup? would that make the boot.img work? cause if so i could have one backup of each rom on my 16gb sd card and just reflash when i need it. thanks guys

Which recovery are you on and are you primoc or primou?..... I don't think the recovery will actually backup the boot.img even though it says it does... someone else might be able to answer better though
Sorry forgot that but I'm primoc with twrp 2 recovery on Pac man 19.3

Hi
I have a HTC one X rooted phone with stack 4.1.1
I get a message that there is a new update 3.20.401.1
After download it tells me to reboot. My phone then goes to ClockWorkmode (CWM)
It stoops there. I do not find any zip file to install.
Any tips for this, or should I just ignore this?
Thanks

You just need to flash stock recovery through fastboot again mate then on booting up you should be able to install the update. Or you could install a custom rom with that base without having to flash recovery :good:
Thanks for quick reply.
If I go for a custom room, what is the best out there?
Do I loose anything by not upgrading the stock room?

they are all pretty damn good roms mate! too hard to choose really, just best to flash em, and see remember to make a nandroid backup also
u shouldn't loose anything apart from bloatware
If you want a custom based on stock, i suggest Android revolution, Viper Rom, or SD ROM.

I did try out Cyanogen lastest image, that do work fine.
But I have to look long for how to find out that I needed to extract boot.img from the cyanogen zip file and install this with flashboot.
But now I like to go back to my original rom. I did take a nandroid backup, and also have an older nandroidbackup.
Its not possible to make the phone go back. When I start restor, all looks ok MD5 etc, but then gets this message
Error while restoring /system!
Do I have to do more flashboot stuf to go back?
I am still able reinstall Cyanogen from zip file. But my Cyanogen backup also fail.
Why
Edit. The Cyanogen Image is 4.2.2 and Orginal image is 4.1.1. Could that be any problem?

Are you sure you've made the backup with the same recovery as you are attempting to restore it with?
The Android version shouldn't really matter, but there may be exceptions for some things.

If you are using CWM recovery u should be able to go into the backup file (under clockwork mod/backup on sd) and take the boot.img u need to flash via fastboot there. Put it in your fastboot file and then flash using "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
So I should take the boot.img from the backup, run fastimage and restore it?
Then try to restore the backup using clockworkmod?
I am not user if the backup was made with
recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.2.7-endeavoru.img or
recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img
Is it important to restore with correct version? If so how to see what version that was used?
I am not able to go back to my old image
Not sure why, but the Cyanogenmod does not give me any Mobil data (3G etc)??
I tried to restore the boot.img from correct backup using flashboot flash boot boot.img and then try to restore.
But still I get Error while restoring /system!
Some note:
I made a backup of my working Cyanogenmod, this I am able to restore without getting the restoring error.
No I also have tried recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
But there are some different thing going on.
When I first tested to restore my original image, I get menu like this when trying to restore:
Code:
Yes-Restore
No
Go-Back
Now I do get:
Code:
No
No
No
No
No
Yes-Restore
No
No
No
*** Go back
Have I used another clockworkmode to make the backup?
If you want to be sure you use the same recovery as where the nandroid is made with ? Flash the recovery.img from the nandroid folder.
Then flash the boot.img from the nandroid folder, go into recovery :
Factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Advanced - wipe dalvik cache
Mounts & storage - format cache, data, system
Then restore the nandroid.
Thanks
You saved my day.
It seems that the backup was done with CWM based v6.0.2.7
Not sure where I have got this version.
Latest version listed here: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager is 5.8.4.0 and not 6.0.2.7 that I have used
Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1941630 is 6.0.3.2 listed
What is the latest version of CWM for HTC ONE x and where to get it?
And last, what is the best to use
Yeah well after all the replies i thought i chip in give my 2 cents
This is one of the latest i use now.
http://db.tt/SPXdFfPw
Everything is working fine and I start to understand how its connected together.
But there are one thing that still puzzle me, the boot.img
When and why do I need to change that when I go to and from CM 10.1.2 (4.2.2) and Original image 4.1.1
What trigger the need of the change?
Should not this be restored correctly when I restore a backup. (In Clockwork mode)?
Does this work automatically whit Philz recovery 5.6.1.img?
I do like to change image in my phone without need a PC to run fastboot !!
When you change rom you need to flash the corresponding boot.img from that particular rom or nandroid backup.
We can't flash boot.img files via recovery because we have s-on devices so fastboot is a must.

HI,
I have a europen (international) htc one x 32gb, currently running miu 3.5.7
i want to get back to stock and I was looking at the threads about how to do this using a ruu but I'm not sure how to continue:
my cid is E11
my versions is 3.20.401.1
i first wanted to use a nandroid backup but the file here is not on dropbox anymore:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1975140
so then i thought to try it with a ruu and this should be the right ruu I think:
OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.20.401.1-3.14.401.31_R_release_314818virsindn3qwws1r2.zip
but it is only 36 MB and there is no executable file in it ...
is there another ruu i can use or another method to get back to stock?
tnx!

That ruu is only an ota which stands for over the air update, I can try and find the right one for you
Edit: I don't think there is an ruu for your version so I think the only way to get back to stock is a nandroid which is not on dropvox anymore as you said.. Mr hofs uploaded it I believe if you can get in contact with him he might still have the nandroid for you

I just wanted to ask if it would be ok to flash the 3.14 recovery
one more question:
I used getRIL and it says this:
RIL: unknown
baseband: 5.1204.162.29
is this ok/normal or is it rom specific (miui)?
and by flashing this backup etc, does this also get the original kernel etc?
my kernel now is 3.1.10n3okernel_v33-gf404256-dirty
so in other words: is everything back to the original and can i be sure i have the right radio etc?
Restore the nandroid and also flash back the boot.img from the nandroid backup. Then you have stock kernel + modules.

hi,
i tried restoring your backup but it saus: error while restoring /system
i downloaded your file, put it in the backup folder, flashed boot.img and erased cache, then restored back-up
edit: also did a full wipe, same problem
Flash also the recovery.img to be sure you are using the same one as it is made with
And also enter mounts and storage and format all except sdcard

Can I jump in here as Mr Hofs seems to have a lot of knowledge.
I did a restore of my One-X to stock rom according to this tutorial.
http://design-extreme.net/restore-htc-one-x-to-stock-rom/
This all went well and without problems. The RUU I flashed is this one.
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.31_R_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_302015_signed
When I now startup the phone it all works perfect. Then the phone says there is an OTA (to 3.20 I believe)
I download and install the OTA and the phone restarts, but after restarts the phone's touchscreen does not work anymore.
I solved this for now by installing the 3.14RUU again, then it works again. But of course I would like to be able to install the OTA's
To me it sounds like a driver problem in the new version that prevents the touchscreen from working. You or anyone else have idea how to solve this?

Flash the recovery.img from the nandroid backup first. Then make a full wipe and restore the nandroid. That will solve the restore error.
Yesterday I wanted to go back to stock 4.2.2 Rom on my HOX, I restored my nadroid backup but it didn't worked.
I surfed on internet looking for a solution but every post said you have to re lock bootloader then run ruu blah blah blah....
Solution- if you have flashable zip file of stock rom ( I downloaded it from android revolution hd website )
1- unzip the file copy boot.img in c drive of your computer.
2- flash the zip file via cwm recovery.
3- turn HOX power down return back to fastboot mode plug usb in it.
4-( I assume you have proper setup of adb if you don't have then ask google) now run this command in adb "fastboot flash boot c:\boot.img
5- now reboot your phone let it start upto the welcome screen.
6- turn it off go back to cwm recovery now you can restore your nandroid backup.

Why posting this in this context ? It's confusing. You do not need a flashable zip of a stock rom. A custom recovery and a nandroid backup is enough ! And it's all the same coming from any rom.
1: flash the boot.img from the backup
2: perform a full wipe in the recovery
3: restore the desired nandroid backup
4: reboot and enjoy
No other way, it works always like that ! And there are many good guides already.
So i think you did something wrong between full wiping and restoring the nandroid

Flash boot.img after the nandroid backup is completed its confusing because you are advanced user.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
No your part of flashing a stock rom first is confusing and absolutely unnecessary ! Why would you flash a rom before you want to go to stock ? It's all extra you have to do !
Just do as i said and it works, and again ... this can be found on whole xda. It's not that you found some missing key here.
And where did i say anything about flashing a boot.img after restoring the nandroid backup here ? And as additional info, a boot.img can be flashed before or afte. It makes no differrence
And between your #1 and #2 you need to full wipe. If you flash another rom straight over an aosp (or any other rom) it will result in a non booting phone ! So your info contains not only unnecessary steps, it's also incomplete
