[Q] Forgot to install ROM before the custom recovery. - HTC One X

I was following this guide with the intention of installing Cyanogenmod on to my HTC One X (international version), and I got as far as the Flashing a ROM section, towards the bottom, when I reached step 5, which reads "Make sure you already have your shiny new ROM .zip on your internal memory as you cannot enable mass storage in the current recovery builds."
At this point I realised I had not done this, and I have no way of putting the ROM onto the phone. Is there anything I can do, or do I have to start from scratch, and if so, how do I do that?
I'm following this guide regarding installing the ROM, but is there a better one? That guy cannot spell.
I also have this thread open for CM10.1, but it's quite confusing. Should I be downloading the following?: Beta 7 (pure JB vendor): http://d-h.st/fo4 - Kernel 3.1.10 included.
Thanks in advance.

Yes, and "backed up." I don't know what I've backed up, but I've backed up something. I have not wiped anything, and I still appear to have a functional phone.

you probably backed up the stock rom however to push the rom onto your phone you should go into recovery and mount USB and the put the rom onto the sdcard that's it...

Do I just place the file in the main folder, or does it go somewhere specific? Thanks for your help by the way.

You can mount it inside the recovery as a diskdrive and yes you need that cm10.1 + gapps if you want them too. Mount it and copy the rom and gapps to it
Here is a small tut i wrote earlier. ...
This counts for recovery cwm 5.8.4.0 (otherwise a full wipe in any other recovery must be done)
In recovery
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Advanced - wipe dalvik cache
Mounts and storage - format cache,data,system
Remove the cable to the pc before installing the rom !
Then install CM10.1 after that GAPPS.....DO NOT REBOOT
Reconnect the cable and ......
type in the fastboot command window
Adb reboot bootloader
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img (the file from the rom)
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot reboot

Thanks for your comprehensive reply dude. Does the gapps (Google Apps I assume?) include Google Now? I'd become quite accustomed to that particular gadget and I will miss it.

Actually i have to guess yes.....i never tried it !
Ow and my apology to matt for barging in like this......

Ok, once this gapps is downloaded I am good to go I think. If I brick it I can just break it and claim it on the insurance. Although this phone is brand new because my old one drowned a couple weeks ago, so they mightn't like two claims in such quick succession.

yeah gapps have google now too

One more question guys, and this is where I possibly reveal how idiotic I am...
How do I install the ROM? I have the two files on the storage (in unzipped folders), but how do I install them?

you need the cm10.1 rom.zip and the gapps.zip... go into recovery choose .zip and select the rom.zip first, after that install the gapps.zip following the same steps before... then reboot and enjoy the rom

Well you have a certain folder on the pc....from where you also flashed the recovery ? It contains fastboot.exe and adb.exe files ....right? You open the cm10.1.zip file and you see the boot.img file in there, you copy that to the fastboot folder on the pc and flash it

oh yeah forgot about that sorry...
before going into recovery you should go into fastboot mode, connect the phone to your computer and type those command in the terminal/cmd, the boot.img file can be easily found in the cm10.1 thread or in the rom.zip... after that install the rom following the steps above...

I'm on a Mac, so the guide said I only needed the fastboot file, not the adb one. What do you mean "flash it"?
I've rebooted the phone as you said, but it just says "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped." I click Ok and it says that again.

fastboot mode: power off the phone, power+vol down, select fastboot and press power, you're done

You can go in the bootloader first and flash the boot.img. I described it the other way around because you end with a cache erase to avoid boot problems (got this from the thread itself)
Basically it comes down to this
You put the phone in the bootloader and you see a red text that says "fastboot usb"
At that point you flash the boot.img from the mac to the phone.
Then you unhook the cable and do the rest of the guide

[Q] Desperately need help! I bricked my HTC One X

Hello,
I bought my HTC One X for playing full screen games. For this reason, the three dot
menu thing was extremely annoying. After a quick google search, I found a solution.
Everything I did I took extreme care with, rereading all instructions before doing anything as I bricked my Galaxy S Plus before and I didn't want a repeat.
First I tried to unlock the bootloader, which was a success! I then tried to flash clockwork recovery which was successful also. Then, I flashed superuser and I was rooted!
The final step, was to flash a zip I downloaded from this forum. So I turned it on, and it goes up to the bit that says HTC ONE Beats Audio, then stops, for good.
I have no idea what to do next, I tried to follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1609190 but it is beyond my capabilities to understand it.
Please help me, I am only sisxteen and had to save for two years to buy this phone!
Extra information:
Three dot fix from http://www.guidingtech.com/10821/disable-3-three-dot-menu-htc-one-x-map-to-task-switcher-button/
Using interim touch recovery (CWM)
Software version before crash was 1.28
Sorry for being a noob but my mental well being depends on seeing the HTC Clock greet me once again!
It get stuck because you're using a deodex android.policy.jar in an odex stock ROM as it won't work.
Do you have any nandroid backup or any ROM.zip on your sdcard ? If yes, you can go to recovery and restore or flash the ROM.zip.
If you don't have any of them, you need to flash the official RUU for your phone but you need to flash the stock boot.img, stock recovery.img, relock the bootloader and flash RUU.

You also can try this ODEXED_Stock_menubarmod_revert2stock_1.28.zip Here, if it works it will save the hassle to download the RUU and revert to stock.
What you need to do is:
1) Download the ODEXED_Stock_menubarmod_revert2stock_1.28.zip and copy it to your android sdk/tools (or whatever directory your android sdk is)
2) I believe you still have the recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img in your android sdk/tools
3) in bootloader, open CMD type: fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img
4) once you're in recovery, go to mounts and storage, mount the sdcard (I normally mount all cache, data, system and sdcard)
5) in CMD:
adb push ODEXED_Stock_menubarmod_revert2stock_1.28.zip /sdcard
The file will be copied to your sdcard.
6) choose install zip from sdcard and flash the ODEXED_Stock_menubarmod_revert2stock_1.28.zip
7) choose advance, wipe dalvik cache and reboot and see whether it will work.
EDIT: If the "RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.9_Radio_1.1204.103.14" is the right one for your phone, you can download it here

don't think the OP wants the complicated solution
Just let him boot the phone into fastboot, connect it to the computer and run the RUU from the computer.
This means if there is already a 1.28 RUU xxxxxxx which I haven't checked out

Yep... that's why I edited my post and give the link for the 1.28 RUU, just hope he mention the right RUU as I give him the link as what he requested.
I'm going to give the complicated solution a go because I would rather try and keep some of my files than delete everything. I tried to do the fastboot boot but it failed, so I tried fastboot flash recovery and I was successful. Will this still work?

Flashing official RUU will not delete everything on sdcard... I did it many times.
fastboot flash recovery will not work for that complicated way. Make sure you type it correctly:

not fastboot boot recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img
From what point in the bootloader do I run fastboot boot?

[Q] I think I've bricked my phone completely

Hello, I was flashing the latest version of ViperX and it wouldn't boot so I decided to reinstall. After reinstalling I updated my hboot to the latest version and was told to erase everything such as cache, system, dalvik etc. It deleted my backups, I have lost ClockWorkMod on my phone and ADB wont detect it. I also have no rom on my phone as of now, I think I could fix it if I could get ADB to detect the phone. When I plug my phone into the computer it detects it as a HTC but when I type "adb devices" I get nothing coming up
Could someone suggest something to fix it?
Hold your volume - and the power button together until you see the bootloader !
Is the bootloader unlocked ? And what version do you have now ?
Unlock the bootloader if its relocked. Put the unlock code.bin file in the fastboot folder and flash it
Fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin
Download this file and place it in your fastboot folder, rename it to recovery.img and flash it
http://db.tt/S74XQEtu

Well I'm getting there.
I've reinstalled CWM and I'm looking to install the ROM now but it has been deleted from my SD card, either that or my sd isn't working.
Is there a way to access my sd card without a ROM Wmaybe install and flash without using the "choose zip from sdcard" option?
When I press "choose zip from sdcard" it says "No files found."
What do I do now?
Select mounts and storage and mount usb storage.
(if you get an error (ums) DL this: http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)
Then copy the viper x rom to the sdcard.
Make a full wipe in the recovery
Factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Advanced - wipe dalvik cache
Mounts & storage - format cache, system, data
Then install the rom.....do not reboot if you did not flash the boot.img
Type in the commond prompt
Adb reboot bootloader
Then flash the boot.img from the viper x rom, found inside the rom.zip !
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot reboot
If you already flashed the boot.img you can skip the last part

Rom switching

Hello guys
I rooted my phone recently and I am using CM10.1 since. I wanted to switch to different roms using ROM manager but every time I try it it just reboots back to CM.... idk what to do...
I have an HOX Int trying to switch from CM 10.1 to Nocturnal xi40.
Thanks in advance)
Don't use ROM manager...
1. Download the ROM, extract the boot.img to fastboot folder and copy the rom.zip to your phone.
2. Go to fastboot mode and flash the boot.img via fastboot and then 'fastboot erase cache'.
3. Go to recovery make a full wipe...(Data/cache/dalvic)
4. Now flash the ROM.zip from recovery.
5. Reboot!
Follow these steps every time you flash a new ROM!

after i flashed the recovery you gave me and i used fastboot reboot it just gets stuck on the htc logo.
Flashed the recovery
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (rename it to recovery.img)
Fastboot erase cache
Flashing a recovery will not mess up the actual working rom !

I flashed the recovery successfully but what new? tried the "Mount usb" option but it just gives me 2 options "Go back" or "Unmount"....
Leave it on that screen and hook up the usb cable....wait......wait.....and it should pop up eventually

Don't know what you did the first time ? Try this one then

Rename it to recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
It must work. Otherwise there is something with the phone. Or you messed up a command somewhere ?

I did what you told me and im still stuck on htc logo... on the "Mounts and storag" menu it only has the option of go back nad unmount...
I dont care if i need to switch back to any other rom, even go back to stock and unrooted. i just want to be abe to use the phone
I know what you mean but mount as usb drive must work. Do you use the original HTC usb cable ? Are you using a direct usb 2.0 port on the pc ?
And if you see the : unmount and go back text you are in the mounting menu, at that point the sdcard is being mounted ! Don't tap "go back" or "unmount"

[Q] Cant use phone HELP!

I recently installed cyanogenmod 10.1 onto my htc one x and it installed fine the problem is, I forgot to install gapps and now my phone is stuck saying this message: "com.android.phone has unexpectedly stopped" the thing is, I can't use my phone for anything i can't even flash back because for some reason my phone deleted the stock rom backup I had this has also stopped it ffrom connecting to the computer so i can't access files or anything I can only access the stock hboot thing and CWMR any help would be appreciated
Flash the boot.img from cm10 rom, make a full wipe in recovery and install cm10 rom.zip and then gapps ..... reboot and it probably will be fine !

Sorryif this a nooby question but just where do i find this boot.img?
Inside the rom.zip, open the file with lets say 7zip and copy out the boot.img file and flash it with either fastboot commands or with a flash tool to the phone in fastboot usb mode

Well the phone should say "MYHTC" in the devicemanager.
Try this driver as it always worked for me

no you flash the boot.img to the phone that is in the bootloader. put the boot.img into the fastboot folder on the pc, open a command window inside that folder and flash it
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
then enter the recovery and do the steps i wrote earlier

Enter the recovery and mount the sdcard as a mass storage device, under the mounts and storage menu. Then copy the gapps to the phone !
