Today I was flashing a new Rom (the GingerSense Leak to be specific) and when I was in Rom Manager I decided to update my recover from 2.5.0.7 to 3.0.0.5 (not sure if either of these numbers are right). When I finally rebooted into what I thought was recovery my phone sent me to the bootloader menu. Which normally isn't a big deal and it means that the recovery version didn't take. This time when I selected reboot it rebooted back into the bootloader menu. Now I can't get anywhere, no recovery and no way to reboot the phone.
Am I F$%#ed?
I did do a search and no one has quite had the same problem I am having.
Thank you for the help in advance.

Try running an RUU.
Not sure how advanced of a user you are, but you can try and check if your phone is recognized via USB while in the bootloader and try pushing the recovery on via ADB. That way, you can just restore a good NAND instead of having to start over.

Does your bootloader show Ship S On or Ship S off? If it's S off still, you can probably just flash a PC36IMG of a recovery, using the bootloader. That looks like what teh roxxor attatched, based on the file size of the PC36IMG he attatched. If you're not S off anymore, I'd suggest running an RUU to flash you back to stock, and then start over from that point.

So where are you at exactly? Did you get the recovery flashed earlier, and your phone is back up and running? And now you're just trying to get ADB to work, and you're having trouble..? OR, are you still stuck, and never got the phone back online earlier?
Do you get an error when you try to use adb, or is it just not seeing the device?

Haha, I was confused on what you were trying to use adb for. Were you just trying to push the .zip to your sd card? The reason it wasn't working is because you were in the bootloader. ADB only recognizes if the phone is in recovery, or booted into the OS. That's why it wouldn't see adb for ya. And yes, now that you have the PC36IMG on your sd card, you should just be able to apply that using the bootloader, and then you should be able to get up and running again.
I forgot to copy the Revolution HD installer into my phone memory but I've already run the SuperWipe. Now all hell break loose and I can't get my phone to boot normally. I can go into recovery though.
Can someone help by telling me where can I get the required file/image to flash back to stock?
Appreciate your help.
Thanks.

Any advise?
Gosh. I'm really stuck now.
Anyone can help me outta this?

After hours and hours of struggling, apparently you need to relock the bootloader first. I saw the tool here http://forums.acsyndicate.net/showthread.php?3153-UTIL-WIN-01-04-ACS-HTC-Super-Tool-v3

I haven't updated my HOX since November, bought a Note 2.
But wanna try my little X phone again . Right now my One X is on an old CM10 4.1 build from October.
What's the best install method again ? I think my HBOOT is ancient. Says like from May 2012, how do I update that if need be, I never once updated my hboot or modem since I bought the phone last Spring
UPDATE:
I must have screwed up, been like 5 months since I last used this phone, stupid no S-Off I put this ROM file on my sd/card, grabbed the boot.img from it, and put on my PC. I plugged the phone into USB computer, rebooted to Bootloader, then to Fastboot, where I did the command prompt stuff to flash the boot.img, then I went into Recovery after that, wiped data, factory reset, wipe cache, wipe davlik, format system, etc...
Then flashed the ROM, and rebooted, now it is just sitting with there, with the little android logo, like it should be booting up into the OS, but it's been like that for ten minutes now ? What step did I do wrong ? I forgot, how do I get back into the bootloader again, when stuck like this ?

Thanks, did that, and ran the flashboot thing again with command prompt. Still just hangs while loading up. Maybe I need to update my hboot ? I never did anything to my hboot since I bought the phone last summer. I have read I think if going to new JB ROM's need a newer hboot ?
Uh, ok, uh.....

Did you do a nandroid backup before flashing new rom? If you did, flash its boot.img, full wipe and restore. There's an app on play called cid getter. It will tell you your cid.

I live in the States, Chicago to be exact, running this on Straight Talk ATT, but did not buy the phone locally. I have two One X's, the one I am working on is from an Indian guy, I bought off Craigslist, I believe he bought out there ? The other One X, I bought from a different guy, who said he had it shipped from Europe. My Wife is still using that phone, on an old CM10 ROM from September. I can try that app to find her region ( hey now )
Off topic, I am on the Samsung Note 2 as my daily driver, running Straight Talk. Wow, Samsung phones are so much easier for flashing ROM's + kernels. Pretty crazy the One X still doesn't have S-Off yet, almost a year later. If this is the route HTC will keep going, and not allowing true root, and flashing ROM's, no way am I ever gonna buy another HTC phone again. Just sticking to Nexus phones, or Samsung.

Not a good idea. Region as in the phone's origins. Try another rom, ics. You need to have a working rom.

Try the link I gave earlier. Not sure if your recovery will allow you to mount sdcard. You can then put the rom in.

If you can get into bootloader and can still access recovery, all is not lost. When in bootloader and you connect to pc, does it say fastbootusb?

Yes it does. I plug in the USB to the phone and PC, turn it on by holding down vol key + pwr button, go into Bootloader, it says fastboot, then I click that, and then says fastbootusb, and I hear my PC speakers jingle, as I plug in the USB cord.

What you need is a recovery that allows your computer to access sdcard. The hboot number isn't relevant here.

Hi,
I just installed the the Revolution ROM on my desire HD and then when i rebooted it it went straight to the revolution reboot menu....
As i am a NOOB i downloaded the Clockwork recovery, reinstalled the revolution rom but same thing happens...
When i reboot the system it starts up (HTC screen) turns off starts back up again and goes straight to "clockworkmod recovery" menu...
I cant even go to the original boot menu...
To make things worst i can only connect usb as storage...
Can anyone please identify my problem and make a step by step solution, as my knowlege on android phones is close to nothing :crying:

An unlocked bootloader with S-On still permits flashing of custom ROMs. Is your recovery updated? If not, do that.

The guide in post #7 of the guide in my signature is pretty clear. Read that. What is important to know is whether your phone is S-On bootloader unlocked or S-Off. Since you didn't hang on the boot splash when you flashed ARHD, I'm guessing S-Off. But just to be safe: to find this information, reboot while holding power and volume-down. That is your bootloader, known as hboot. What does it say? Finally, my hunch is that you need to update your recovery. The guide has instructions for that, but basically, download the image to your computer and flash it from fastboot.
Oh, and you may need to install your drivers on your computer. Install HTC Sync from the HTC website.

When you're tired, it's best to get some sleep. Most mistakes happen when sleepy and tired (been there!) so I'd suggest a little shut-eye and continue then
Sounds to me like the problem will get solved pretty soon, just read the guides and don't rush things. If unsure, read the guide (for what-ever you are doing) a second or a third time and don't try doing many things at the same time (ie.don't try updating your radio, rom, & recovery all at the same time ).
Pretty much anything can be fixed as long as you got recovery working so don't stress too much. Best of luck and hope you get your phone working soon :good:
Still havn´t found a solution for my problem, but i think i´m on to something....
I think the problem with my phone is the boot.img.... i can´t flash it correctly...
Dont know what program to use or what file to download.... i tried openning a command list but i and type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" as i´ve seen on other posts but i always get "this is not known as an internal or external command, etc...."
What can i doooooooooooooo?!!!! going crazy with this
Hey buddy, stay calm haha. I had the exact same problem. The problem is that although you tried to flash it, you nee to have the boot.img and some files including fastboot.exe. All of the files you need and how to flash the rom are in a guide by glevitan. You can just google it.

Hi,
Hello everyone,
I have a question and need your advice.
I have a HOX which starts correctly, and when it happens on the desktop, it freezes. I also hear the sound when I press the volume buttons.
In your opinion, is this a software problem? or is that the motherboard is burned out?
(It is no longer under warranty).
Thank you for your answers.
are you running stock or custom rom?
Stock Rom
have you tried doing a factory reset via the bootloader?
I have do a factory reset through recovery mode. But after this the screen stays unresponsive.
This couldn't be a problem with my motherboard?
i wouldn't say so because recovery is working are you rooted? could try re flashing the OS
