[Q] please help to unbrick my HOX

Hello, i just messed up with my Htc One X, I want to flash the ARHD 10.6 but i got bootloop, then i tried to restore from my back up but i don;t know why everything is fone in my sd card. I tried to go back to stock with RUU. My cid is HTC__203, so i tried to flash with the
Europe 2.17.401.2 HTC - but it keeps show signature error 132.
I don't know what to do, then my brother change my hboot to 1.28
Does someone has an idea please? I am really desperate. It is forever bricked? thank you

get into fastboot and check are you locked or unlocked ?

I already unlock it and to flash ruu i relock it

- Unlock it
- Flash the latest recovery "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
- Extract boot.img from the Rom.zip you want to flash (preferably a jellybean rom)
- "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
- "fastboot erase cache"
- Boot into recovery and flash the ROM.zip
edit: you might try flashing the boot.img from ARHD 10.6 and fastboot erase cache and see if it boots

The problem is i can't get access to my phone. It get stuck to the screen with htc logo and there is nothing on my sd card right now. I tried to push file via adb but it also show no result

turn it off (long press the power button) then turn it on to fastboot, flash the boot.img and erase cache

I tried, i keep havin the bootloop(

Just hold the power button and volume down until it goes to bootloader.

Yes, I did go to bootloader, erase cache and flash the boot.img, but I'm havin the sam issue

Reflash recovery in fastboot, boot up recovery, usb mount, put firmware on and flash it. Then flash boot.img again in fastboot. That works, and if not, YOU are doing something wrong.

Thank you,with your instruction I can finally flash a rom. I did flash viper 2.6. It goes to the lockscreen but when I unlock, it shows : "venom tweaks stop working", and show blank screen with green htc logo. I'm downloading the ARHD jelly bean rom and give it a try. Thank you

Now, i am having the issue with my phone who doesn't recognise my internal sd card. I did a factory reset and went to the recovery to make sure that the sdcard is mounted, but still hain the same problem

[Q] Weird boot problem

Hello,
i got this weird problem when i tried to install clockworkmod from here: knowyourmobile(dot)com/smartphones/htc/onex/onexuserguides/1419609/how_to_root_your_htc_one_x.html
My bootloader is unlocked.I downloaded the file end ran the script.When everything finished my phone got stuck in the boot screen.I tried to erase chase or install stock kernel and recovery (using all ine one tool from this site)but nothing solved it.The only thing that i havent tried yet is to flash a boot.img because i cant find one (i got the phone from europe(paris) and i have the jelly bean update and i cant find the stock boot.img).Any solutions?
Thanks in advance!

If you flash a rom you can find the boot.img inside the rom.zip file ! Flash the boot.img with fastboot commands and do a wipe in recovery and install the rom.zip file from sd card !
And its not a weird boot problem, it's a common user mistake that is done by many....many people
Ow and a kernel = boot.img

Thanks for the reply,Is there another way?Because i dont want to use a custom ROM.I just rooted it in order to install some apps that require root.I said its weird because i flashed the kernel and the problem stays

Do you have a custom recovery at the moment ? And did u do a nandroid backup of the stock rom ?
I think it's weird that you first say that you flashed the kernel and then you say you can't find the boot.img.......

Well i didnt know that kernel=boot.img and i dont know if the all ine one xda program puts the right program for jb.I didnt backup anything,I have clockworkmod recovery

Do you know fastboot and the commands ?
Fastboot oem readcid
and
Fastboot getvar version-main
And post these results here !

I will try it.THis doesnt format anything,right>?

Nope....
You have to enter the recovery from the bootloader - choose hboot and then recovery....if it enters check which version you have (cwm 5.8.4.0 ?)
From there you can go to mounts & storage and then choose at the bottom mount as USB drive
Then you can at least copy everything from the sd to a safe place. I think that the internal data is going to be lost ! Like messages and apps .... Everything that is stored in the cloud is safe anyway

cid:htc__203 OKAY
version-main:3.14.401.27

You can get the ruu with the same number on www.htcruu.com and put the phone in bootloader/fastboot USB
Relock the bootloader with
Fastboot oem lock
And run the ruu.exe with admin rights ...it will put the phone back to 100% stock
This is the one you need
http://www.htcruu.com/download.php?...Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_298897_signed.exe

Nice!Now to reunlock the bootloader i will do the same things i did the first time or there is a command for that?

Yes if you still have the unlock token.bin file you can unlock the bootloader with a fastboot command, the correct command slipped my mind at the moment !
Otherwise you can to the htcdev site again and unlock it there

fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin

Reverting to stock issue

Hey ,I have been around the forum and not only for trying to find a way to get back to stock. What I did was I used my Nandroids boot.img and recovery.img and the phone started normally on 4.1.1 as it was when I backed it up. But when I downloaded OTA and tried to install I had the internalstorage issue ,I tried extracting it manually from Downloads app and at it stucks with the note that "This file is corrupted". I then installed another recovery named -endeavoru.recovery.signed.img and when I try to get into recovery a red exlamation mark appears .And checking for software updated says that I am running newest version of android.. Help will be much appreciated
Thanks

You can try downloading latest ruu and extracting boot.img and system.img from there, here's the instructions https: //sites.google.com/site/ androidbyyorzua/home/tutorials/extracting-rom-files-from-htc-ruu (remove spaces)
You have to flash them with fastboot

Full stock!
But within the boot loader you will always see the Information "RELOCKED"
Currently it is not possible to remove this because there would be S-OFF required.

Do not listen to this guy,wrong guide.This will soft brick your phone (stuck at bootloop). After flashing rom.zip you have to flash unlocktocken in order to flash recovery and wipe cache and factory reset. AND DO NOT flash CWM or TWRP recovery as they will soft brick your phone giving you error while reverting system while restoring nandroid backup, instead flash the recovery located in the nandroid back up!

Hello, I'm from Bulgaria, I bought a Desire HD that was with relocked bootloader. I unlocked the bootloader with htcdev.com. Now it is unlock. The phone not load any ROM, can,'t make recovery from bootloader, can't make factory reset from bootloader. I tried to flash several stock ROMs before and after unlocking, but getting a different errors. Attempted ROMs are with the same RADIO. I Tried this-
just copy the rom.zip from temp folder of your user name on pc while running that RUU at the next of second step..i mean while you double click of the RUU then you the first prompt that you must thick "Understand blah blah blah.." then click next..you must hold setup at this step..and tried search the rom.zip in your temp folder of your pc and copied to another folder..then rename it to PD98IMG.zip and put in to the root of your sd card..then boot the phone to bootloader mode..wait until bootloader reading and checking the PD98IMG.zip file..then ask you to confirm if you wanna flash it.. but without success. Stay on the white screen with grenn HTC logo when is turned on, and when I tried to make recovery or factory reset. When the stock ROM start to install (before give me a error ) the screen stay on grey HTC logo on Black screen. Can anyone help me? I attached a picture of Bootloader-

Uhh, have you actually installed recovery - if you haven't well that's why.
Go here: http://www.4ext.net/ddl/ace/recovery.zip
Extract the files
Copy recovery img to your adb.exe folder (make sure fastboot.exe is there)
Turn on your phone into fastboot mode
CD to that directory and type in "fastboot devices"
Confirm it says your serial
Then type in "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
Now you have recovery (it means you can flash roms and kernels and mods and anything flashable apart from radios and firmwares)

I did this correctly, everything is OK, but now what? I tried to install stock ROM, but with no result. Here is a pictures of instalation-

now select recovery, and install ROM there

don't install stock rom or RUU again..
just installing custom rom (you can search and choice a custom rom in "Desire HD Android Development") and installing the rom.zip file from 4ext recovery (install zip from sd card)..don't forget to flashing boot.img too (flashing under FASTBOOT mode with fastboot command "fastboot flash boot boot.img").. that the boot.img are extracted from the rom.zip file that you had already installed..
hope this can help..

Thank you, but I can't see 4EXT Recovery menu on my phone. And I can't install custom ROM

did you already installing 4ext recovery..?, if so..to go that recovery then you just need select Recovery from your bootloader menu..then you can installing custom rom from there..
just copied your custom rom file to the root of your sd card..this mean just placed inside your sdcard..don't placed inside any folder..then after that you can installing that rom from 4ext recovery
hope this can help..

I made this from second post, but can't see any difference in phone or bootloader. When I pushed recovery from original bootmenu, came white screen with green HTC logo with one vibration end nothing happend

Just repeat all the step in second post...just this time you show me the out put from cmd...after you typing command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

while you installing recovery from fastboot..did your bootloader still with unlocked state..?
because i see you're success flashing a custom recovery that you already show me above in attchment file before...
if your bootloader are already locked..then you must unlocking again first...then after that you can continued flashing custom recovery..

Thank you ! Now the bootloader is unlocked, and I did that from the second post with already unlocked bootloader. Still nothing can I do.

just tried installing another custom recovery...just try download it TWRP recovery from here.. copied to your adb.exe and fastboot.exe folder and flashing it through FASTBOOT mode with command .. "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-ace.img"
hope this time your phone will had a custom recovery installed
good luck.

that's so weird..it must be something wrong with that phone..
what about if you try return to the stock first..?
to do that...firstly just find the cid num of your phone by command through fastboot "fastboot getvar all" (you can find your cid in the INFO CIDNUM XXXXXXXX) if you wanna show me the output of that command..don't forget just remove your imei and serial number first..
after you find your cid num you can find the right RUU for your phone..just check it here to find what RUU you must download it..and just download it the RUU with same main version of your phone or higher version than yours..
after that just relocked your bootloader through fastboot "fastboot oem lock"...now you can continued flashing that RUU
hope this help..

Fixing HBOOT .95 stuck in bootloop/not charging

I am posting this in the hopes it might help someone that has a similar problem. I personally went down a lot of wrong roads before stumbling across the answer. Maybe that is me but like many issues all the answers were here in XDA they were just a little hard to find. If you are facing this problem here they are in one place/
Initially I was faced with a non-charging, boot looped HOX International
Many thanks to [email protected]|-|oR, teemo, Thant who got me through this.
HOX International Endeavoru
S-On
HBOOT 0.95
Version-main 1.29.401.11
oem readcid H_Y13-2.17.401.2
Stuck in boot loop. Device would not charge, would only run when on usb and then only go to bootloader screen. After a few minutes connection and phone would die. This is the worst possible situation if you have anything more than this it will work as well
The phone was unlocked.
Should work on either Windows, Mac, Linux as long as you have adb and fastboot installed (I use Linux)
This can all be done without ever having a working phone until process is completed.
Step One - Install a recovery CWM 5.8.4.0
On your pc download 5.8.4.0 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...5#post24738635
Personally I renamed it to somethingeasy.
Open a terminal (in Linux as long as fastboot is in your path it doesn't matter, in Windows you will need to be in the directory that has fastboot) Now flash the recovery.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery somethingeasy.img
Make sure it completes with no errors. This is an old recovery and should not be a problem for the device.
This recovery will (among other things) give you the ability to mount the phone on your box easily so you can copy files over.
Step 2 - Give the phone a chance to charge
Reboot the phone into recovery (or the bootloader and select recovery) which will allow the battery to charge.
Step 3 - Find a file to update your HBOOT
The major issue here is HBOOT 0.95 since it won't allow you to do a native update in the phone OS from an OTA. For me it refused to accept anything I downloaded on the phone after I restored from a nandroid backup so I just skipped that step.
By going to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376
Then find a file that matches your realcid. In my case that was a H_Y13 with 401 file. As in x.xx.401.2
Download that file and put it in your fastboot directory.
Step 4 - Relock the phone
Boot the phone into the bootloader select fastboot usb. Open a terminal and type
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Step 5 - Follow the steps on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376
Follow the steps from thread above:
Rename the downloaded file to firmware.zip and open a terminal
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
and wait for device to reboot. It will come up with an HTC screen, be patient
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
and wait for process to complete, again be patient it will work as noted on the link above sometimes flashing for the first time doesn't work, so flash firmware.zip again just to make sure (and in my case it did not and I had to flash twice)
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
and wait for process to complete
Code:
fastboot reboot
Then find your original unlock code from HTC dev or just do the whole unlock http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/ again from the HTC site
Step 6 Reflash the recovery from above
Next reflash the HOX recovery from above we called somethingeasy.img
Code:
fastboot flash recovery somethingeasy.img
Boot into recovery
Wiped system, data, cache
now follow the steps from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2630225 or whatever ROM you want. In my case my HBOOT was upgraded to 1.72, just in time to get ready for Lollipop. Hope this is of help to someone.
