So basically, I installed Elementalx onto my one x running viperxl 2.4.1, and now my phone wont boot into recovery. I had gotten the splashscreen as the phone started, then the screen went black, and now it wont boot. Recovery won't work when holding down the power and down volume button, it will show the htc splash, but then it will cut to another black screen, then a green led will flash once. Phone will not show an led when plugged in. I tried adb reboot but the device cannot be detected. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hmm no detection by pc is not so good. Keep it in the usb to the pc for a while.....if its not showing any signs of life with all sorts of button combinations here is not much you can do
Edit : overlooked the adb thing you tried. Sorry for that
Ow another pointer, you are actually in the wrrong forum. This is not for the htc one XL.
The phone is actually a one x, just running viperxl. And when i hold the power button, the soft buttons still flash as normal. Removing HTC sync, hopefully a reboot can fix something!

You MUST NEVER run a Rom on your phone that is not ment for your phone !!! You have ENDEAVOURU on top of the bootloader ? And you flashed a rom for the htc one XL EVITA type phone !
Biggest mistake ever mate.....you possibly bricked your own phone with this.
you are sure you have the quad-core international HTC one X ? Then you only flash roms that are in this forum. The HTC one XL is a dual-core phone which is completely different
I have the dual core US one x. I have been using viper xl since at least october with very few problems rather than battery life.

So its not a one x.....its a HTC one XL. And then you are in the WRONG forum. Know your phone and forum
But as i said, if its not booting to the bootloader, or responding to buttons there is not much we can do
Alright well thanks for the help. Considering that I can't get into the phone even through command prompts, do you think there's still a possibility of getting a replacement from AT&T? I'm still under the extended warranty and I doubt they could find out that it's rooted, right?

TWRP 2.4.3.0 boot error
Hi guys, i have an HTC One X on which i have also flashed the latest recovery (2.4.3.0) The process goes fine but for some reason i cannot boot into Recovery once flashed. I have re-installed the previous version which work flawlessly. I think there's a bug in the code somewhere, i cant figure out any other possibilities since the older version works fine...even 2.4.1.0.
If anyone finds a fix, please post or let us know. Cheers.
Dont post it here, post it in the twrp thread. They can provide better info on this

Hi guys,
My bro has been flashing roms quite oftenly, I dont know how he does it. I dont use a HTC Desire.
Today he came to me and told me to help him fix up because he couldnt boot to anything.
The phone stay on the White HTC Screen only.
After reading up XDA, I booted into fastboot (Back Button + Power) and tried to Flash HTC Bravo RUU for WEE_Asia.
I used to flash WinMo devices so I thought it should be any problem.
When flashing, everything was fine until towards the end an error saying the package is lost or incomplete. and the RUU updater just leaves me without any choice to revert or what. I didnt not get a screenshot as well.
Now the device is bricked. Power button, anything doesnt work at all, blank screen. yeah..
So any suggestions or tricks to unbrick it?
ADD: Is it this first case of a REAL BRICK HTC Desire? (because I see alot people posting about 'brick' devices but its just merely some software problem)
because as far as I know its quite impossible to brick a device, well and error during RUU update can brick the device, but the error appears in the end of the RUU so Im still kinda unsure what problem is it.
pull the battery out for a min then put back in and hold volume down + power. what happens? does it vibrate or anything?
Sent from my HTC Desire
nope. no vibration at all.
Could it be a battery problem?
because I always see him charging daily and his battery always goes down till 40% or so even in airplane mode!
would it have been the battery problem that caused the RUU error?

doubt it if it only happened after trying ruu. if u were s-off then u cant just run a ruu anyway. this is prob what caused it. do u have a warranty?
Sent from my HTC Desire
Yes the device was S-off when I ran RUU.
Unfortunately, warranty was over last month..
So is this the case of broken bootloader?

I saw some relevant questions in this thread and decided this is the right place for my question. Here are the symptoms of what looks like my bricked HTC Desire It happened to me after I ran (RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783) RUU on my S-OFF phone:
- Take the battery in/out, press power button, just a quick vibrate and nothing happens
- Tried to boot in fastbood (Power button + Volume -) nothing happens
- Plug in the charger - LED is ON (orange)
- The msg on the PC app for RUU was that there was an err during the "upgrade", which was a downgrade attempt, caused by the fact that my phone software was not the right one for that RRU.. or smth like that. Suggesting I go and download the right version.
My question is... is my HTC Desire officially bricked or are we talking about some of those "soft bricks" you guys are referring to with hope for a restore.
Thx outfront, guys.

Thx for the reply! Doesn't budge.
I kept the battery out for a few mins and held down the buttons for a while as well. Screen doesn't turn on. I'm guessing the vibration and LED are good signs?
I've been at it for a while. As far as I got looking for answers throughout the forum... I used ADB app on windows to run command "adb devices" and got a
HT-some-code/serial....................recovery.
So I'm guessing the phone is stuck in recovery. Wonder if I can turn S-ON and try to re-run RUU from this adb thingy.
Ok, I unbricked it For all people that will land here, my (USB) brick occured after running the wrong RUU on a S-OFF Desire.
I started down the list of HTC Desire shipped RUUs from the list of shipped RUU (can't post link) and the phone got back to its out-of-the box state after I hit the right one. Worked for me.

I tried running the command "adb devices" when my bricked Desire is connected on my PC (pressed down the two buttons as well before connecting it) but it says "List of devices attached" without any serial you said that there was.
I don't know how does the "recovery" on bricked phone works. I did my test: remove and reinsert battery and connect phone. LED comes out. (means it isn't permanently bricked) press down "volume down" and "power" buttons and LED switched off. Tells me that recovery must have been booted.
Any suggestions? :crying:
EDIT:
Okay I followed the RUU method (post just above this). I remembered which RUU I am supposed to install (technically RUU_Bravo_Vodafone_TR_1.30.184.3_Radio_32.41.00.32U_4.08.00.09_release_139001_signed.exe). Unfortunately I received the ERROR [131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR, which is sad. hurr
Before this bricking incident happened, I did an update to get android v. 2.3.4. Then I want to revert back its hboot from 1.02 to 0.9x using this method. Somehow, after the third step I still have S-OFF, HBOOT 6.93.1002, which is frustrating. That's where I went to alpharev and tried my luck. Nothing gets the advantage. I found another topic which then I found this rooting topic. That's where I began dumb and installing the RUU I want to install (which is the asia version, since my phone's RUU should be from Asia).
And that's how I got my phone bricked.
ugh

Try asking in the Desire HD section. This is the HTC Desire (Bravo) section.
DUDE IT SAYS WRONG IMAGE
I need help. I thought I knew what I was doing, as I had flashed roms on my old Evo 4G, but since I switched to the One X, I blew it. I had 2.20 firmware, so when I found out about the root method for that I was stoked. I rooted it using the all-in-one toolkit that was posted last week, and it was all good. I decided to try and flash a new rom, so first I tried RebelRom, but I got stuck in a bootloop. I was able to get to recovery (TWRP) and put the zip folder for the Endeavor CM10 rom on there. I flashed it, and it looked like it took that just fine. I wiped the caches and went to reboot it, but it hasn't turned back on since. That was over an hour ago. It won't boot into recovery or bootloader, and it won't even charge as far as I can tell. The notification light doesn't come on when I plug it into the wall or my computer. I'm stuck, and I really don't know what to do. Can anyone help me?
you have htc one xl. this is for international version.
Try fastboot OEM lock? Or is device even recognized by ur computer?...I ****ed mine up too but did the lock n found the 2.20 ruu online and downloaded after relocking bootloader....it is diff flashing roms on the hox. Me myself keep gettin stuck in cm10 and 9 boot loops? I even flash boot.img....I'm lost on this part tho n could use help myself....

2.20 firmware?
Kindly provide more info, like where your phone from? carrier?
FYI, we don't have 2.20 version.
You most probably having a One XL not One X..
And if true, you had flash wrong things.
The situation is severe may be hard brick.
@HebeGuess: I have an AT&T One X in America. It's not the international version. If this is in the wrong forum, I can try posting this elsewhere.
@teambeck: My computer doesn't recognize it. It chirps at first like it does, but then it beeps at me and doesn't show up anywhere.
i have had the same problem ive try to mount usb storage on clockwork mod its saying unable to ums lnfile (no such file or directory) please help p.s its unlocked though htcdev

and used the toolkit added:
where i unlocked the bootloader installed the superuser and recovery TWRP 2.3.3.0
I made a backup and proceeded to flash an Cyanogenmod 10. After which i flashed a boot.img kernel from the rom zip.
Everything went smooth but when i rebooted i got stuck at the HTC screen
Since than i tried restoring the backup an sideloading the icejellybean but to no avail. Everything goes according to protocol but i always get stuck at the htc screen. I am in desperate need for help. What am i doing wrong?

As always, I forgot to mention that GPS is broken on that boot.img, so if you need to use GPS, I recommend you to switch to some other ROM.

Guys I am not a One X user but I am palaning to buy one. However, I wanted to ask that how do you guys switch it off if phone gets into a bootloop or gets stuck at splash screen as One X comes with nonremovable back batteruly cover.
I have Sensation XL currently and I pull battery out if I get stuck on splash screen or get into bootloops.
What is the work around if such situation happens?
Thanks you.

Ok i'll start at the beginning. i've had a HTC One X since launch i've never bothered with the Custom roms before but i had some time on my hands today and thought i would give it a go. and everything went wrong.
i downloaded a called "One X All-in-one kit v2.2" and followed the instructions. i managed to get my bootloader unlocked with out much bother and then i decided to install a custom rom. so i loaded up Clockwork Mod Recovery and downloaded CleanROM 5.1 and put it on the phones memory.
I made a mistake at this point. using the tool i flashed the kernel from the Zip file before flashed the Rom or even made a backup!!!!. Now no matter what i do my phone will turn on and just sit at the "HTC Quietly Brilliant" screen, if i turn the phone off it just turns back on and site at that screen.
i have tried re-following the steps and it is still exactly the same. Do any of you guys have any solutions to this or have i wrecked my phone?
Any help will be gratefully taken as i don't have the cash to throw down for a new phone!!
Thanks,
Matt
First of all you need to clarify which version of HTC One you have, currently you are posting on international version forum ( tegra3 ), and im pretty sure that CleanRom was made only for Snapdragon S4 version ( was it this topic ?). Also check if you are able to boot into bootloader ( power down your phone by holding power button for ~~15 sec, press power while holding volume down button ).

Just a few questions that'll help us help you:
1. If you boot into the bootloader (power and volume down when powering on) What is the first word on the second line of text?
2. On the third line it should give you the HBOOT, could you give us the version number please?
3. Lastly could you please link the ROM you have flashed.
At the moment it seems to be able to be recovered so you can stop worrying
What Rom you're flashing and what hboot you have?

I've been running Viper XL for the past 4-5 months. It has been okay, but my phone ran out of batter last night. When I plugged it in and turned it on, I couldn't bring up the home screen. I had to use Google Now to open apps and do anything basically, so I decided to go back to stock rom. But when I try to reboot into bootloader, all it does is act like it's restarting (goes through the Viper XL start screen) then brings up "process com.android.htcdialer has stopped". The same thing happens when I choose "Power Off" from the options. The only way I can turn off the phone is if I hold the power button down. I've tried restarting it while holding down the volume buttons (that use to work with my Galaxy S), but the phone just starts up normally.
I know my phone's CID is cws_001, but I don't know the version since I can't go into recovery/fastboot mode. I'm on AT&T in the U.S.
Can someone help me get into fastboot mode.
Once there, I just have to relock the bootloader and then reflash the correct RUU (still don't know since I don't know my version).
If someone could help me with all of this, it would be really helpful. I know there were some other posts in the forum about restoring to stock, but I didn't find anyone with my specific problem.
Edit: After doing the exact same thing 20 times, I finally got into recovery mode. It looks like I'm running Evita. Version 2.20.502.7. Could someone lead me to the correct RUU to use? I've looked around, but I am still unsure which to use.
