Bootloop of horror - HTC One X

So I'm currently stuck in a horrible bootloop without the possibility of going in to hboot or recovery.
Was on ViperX 3.6.0 and on XM Kernel 300 when just out of the blue my phone restarted it self and went into a bootloop that i just don't seem to be able to get out of..
When I go in to hboot, it automatically goes to fastboot, then back to hboot, then bootloop (again).
Any suggestions?

How much time do you have to perform a command in the bootloader ?
When the phone hits the bootloader/fastboot usb you hit enter to clear the cache
Fastboot erase cache
Hopefully that solves the loop. Or try to power down

For some magical, mysterious reason, it booted normally - again, out of the blue!
Wth?!
Trying to get a last_kmsg, but ADB won't find my device - but fastboot does!

if you're using windows probably you're missing the drivers

Weird ! When the viper rom is booted you need to enable usb debugging......

[Q] Big problem with Evo!

Okay so yesterday I accidentally downloaded an old RUU and attempted to run it. I got an error in the middle of it and my phone was then stuck on a silver and black HTC screen. When I unplugged the USB it would take me to the Bootloader where it would then only say "RUU". Phone won't reboot or go into recovery. And one more small problem... The battery just died and wont charge. Would really appreciate some help. Thanks.

can I use " Okay so yesterday I accidentally downloaded an old RUU and attempted to run it." in my sig???
btw what hboot did you have before and what version ruu did you try and install?
Yes lmao.
Version 2.10, downloaded new one but having trouble doing it since battery died and not sure the phone will actually connect.
charge the battery some and see if the phone turns on, see if it will boot into recovery/rom etc
Ok, will try to charge battery, but from what i've tried, could not get in to recovery or get the bootloader to come up.
if you can not get anything on the screen and the phone won't mount the sdcard and adb won't connect, be prepared for a drive to the sprint store

Hahahaha ^^^ Anyways new info did get the phone to get a charge. But now cannot get it to connect to computer.
I've actually came across this on the HTC Hero CDMA. i accidentally installed the wrong hero rom, cause at the time i was a noob to the android. an i tried to ruu but it failed. i kept doing all i could and playing with it. but where u ruu got half way through. and debug mode/recovery is reset by half way through.
only thing you can do is try to get into Hboot mode and try to see if u can connect to usb that way. then try to ruu

what does the phone do when you turn it on normal?
will it boot into bootloader?

Just go's back to the "Silver and black HTC screen" and if I pull the USB (when in my computer) It will show me an option in the bootloader thats says RUU thats it. Can't do anything from there.

If you can get into the bootloader your going to be just fine. Use the fastboot option in the bootloader to get your phone to connect to your computer, I have done this numerous times to unroot! You might have to reboot your computer just to refresh the connection etc and also reboot the bootloader a few times from that fastboot menu before running the RUU on the computer.

Okay, you have to get into the fastboot option and then run the RUU. Sorry I am having some trouble understanding because you are being a little vague. But to get into fastboot it has to be done before you run the RUU.

So maybe your SD card is mounted or is the RUU running on your computer as we speak?
Don't think RUU is running but should I try pulling the SD?

No you shouldnt need to pull the SD. But I would try rebooting your computer and maybe your phone and get into the bootloader without it connected to your computer. Then connect it and go into fastboot and try what i described earlier.

[Q] I think I messed up manual update, please help

Hi all,
My OTA update kept failing so I attempted a manual update to 4.04.
I missed updating the boot.img file. I did the system, recovery and radio then relocked the bootloader.
When I turn it on, it stays on the google splash screen. When I go into bootloader mode and try recovery mode, I get the red triangle. My computer does not seem to be recognizing the phone, I get the error: device not found.
Is there something I might try?
Thanks in advance

In fastboot mode (obviously), unlock the bootloader, flash the boot image, and leave the bootloader unlocked. Done.
Thanks for the quick repy efrant! A big question is how do I unlock the bootloader if my computer doesn't recognize the phone. I am getting "device not found" so I seem to be unable to unlock the bootloader in the first place.

So your GNex is booted in fastboot mode and your computer does not recognize it? If this is the case, it is likely a driver issue, and you should re-install.
It is normal that your GNex is not recognized by your computer when booted not in fastboot mode, when you can't boot.

Hey efrant ^^ I'll sort it out ^^ (if you don't mind)
Dude, chec my sig, all the drivers and tutorials needed, can be found in the Win8 thread.
Follow that tut. then the phone should be recognized. Then erase the phone With:
Code:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
This ensures, that the flash is successful. If you don't erase first, it's likely, that the phone won't correctly write the files.
Then flash the files, with these codes:
Code:
fastboot flash boot (Always do this first) <Fille directory\file name.img>
fastboot flash system <Fille directory\file name.img>
fastboot flash recovery <Fille directory\file name.img>
DO NOT ERASE/FLASH userdata!! Do that, and you WILL lose ALL of your data!
If you want, I can help you, with tamviewer. I've helped a few people, this way It has always worked
Normally it does recognize the phone, but it doesn't seem to since I messed this up. I will try to re-install the drivers to see if that works. It is in fastboot mode, I hear the tone from the computer that something has connected when I reboot the fastboot, but it doesn't get recognized.

Go into the dev manager, and look for: Android 1.0
If you see that, then Update devuice drivers -> Select from a list -> Samsung ADB Interface
That should do the trick

Use adb from bootlooping screen. The command is "adb reboot recovery". Adb is part of android SDK. There are plenty of guides on how to set up adb out there and its easy.

You don´t to have be in hboot to use adb. You have to be with the phone on normally or from the splash screen itself. If you are in hboot then choose fastboot and try from there but using fastboot devices command instead.
As long as you have not factory reseted the phone the usb debugging drivers will stay in the phone.

USB debugging should always be enabled by default in any custom Rom. The thing that will disable it is doing factory reset from hboot screen. But you can't get there anyways so it should be enabled. Start the phone as normal and let it go to splash screen. Plug into pc and be sure to check that pc sees the phone. If not, unplug phone. Uninstall drivers. Re install drivers and then plug phone back in. From adb type "adb devices". You should see your device. After that run the "adb reboot recovery". If it still doesn't see it plug phone into different port. Preferably one that goes straight into mother board and remove any other USB devices that are plugged in.

I did a factory reset.
i just installed a new rom.
thank you for trying to help any way/
Go to settings>Applications>development and check USB debugging.
If you're still getting device not recognized, you should reinstall HTC drivers by reinstalling HTC sync. ( if you haven't installed those in the first place, then you won't be able to use adb unless you do)

When you say "factory reset," do you mean that you ran a RUU? Or that you chose "factory reset" in recovery, so you still have a custom ROM installed? If the answer is the latter, you probably have USB Debugging enabled. Just give ADB a try.

[Q] USB connection not working

Hello
Here's my proplem:
I flashed cyanogenmod nightly build (12.03.2013) and everyting was fine until i updated my HOX by the cmupdater to the next nightly build (13.03.2013). This build is screwed as i can understand ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1786696 ). Ok, then i flashed old working rom (12.03.2013).
USB connection not working since i flash it, however all other works great. In cwm recovery usb storage is not working too. And even in fastboot mode usb is not working.
sorry for my english... hepl me!
Hi,
Did you install HTC Sync Manager to get the HOX drivers ?
Also, if USB doesn't work in CWM... I suggest you to change your ROM, kernel etc....
(On which ROM, kernel etc. are you ? Did you install any addons ?)

Yes, htc sync manager and all drivers are reinstalled about five times - no result. I`ve tried three cords, all three are original.
I was on stock ROM, then i flashed cm10.1. And now I'm on stable nightly cm10.1 build. I just can't flash anything, fastboot isn't working...
In cwm I tried to restore old stock backup, but the phone just stops on bootscreen, because i can't flash boot.img i think...
I'm in panic!
I even don't know what else i can try to do to fix it...
'adb devices' returns nothing; same with 'fastboot devices'. I even can't reinstall fastboot mode drivers, cause there's no reaction from windows when i plug the cable in.
Is it kind of "usb brick" or what?
And... is there another method to flash kernel? without fastboot i mean.
what a moron i am...
Full formating of internal memory via CWM was totally bad idea... Now my HOX is totally bricked.
Please help, mates...
What you can't power it on?
Uninstal all drivers and htc syncmanager from the pc. Go into device manager and delete any entry that has something to do with android phones or myHTC (of its there) reboot the pc

Ok, my HOX has been bricked too once.
To unbrick it, I downloaded the ROM of my Internet provider (SFR) and installed it on my phone... (I had no waiting for device issue but to put the rom inside my SD card I used the CWM recovery)
Then I installed a custom ROM.
Also, you may try to :
1. Google your " Waiting for device " issue in fastboot usb mode
2. Get a new fastboot kit. I use the "zedomax"'s fastboot kit (it's a Youtuber) You may find the kit in videos descriptions.
I suppose you didn't make any backup of your HOX thanks to the CWM... :l
(I didn't make any backup of my HOX when it's bricked but now it's working fine...)
Good luck !

[Q] Please help me. [HTC ONE V]

But, I charge it.. And then I plug it into the comp, it just connects and disconnects, like it's giving a faint indicator of life :3
Please help. I was on Ignorance V5..
Installing a rom can't hard brick your device.
Try to shut it down by holding the power button and immediately press vol down + power to enter your bootloader. Then you can select recovery and install a backup of your ignorance rom or do whatever you want.
BTW: It looks like you forgot to install the kernel for the custom rom.

<vol.down>+<power> should get you to the hboot menu.

Most likely you flashed the wrong ROM.

It's not going into Boot Loader. If it did, I would flash back Ignorance.
Please help

Did you try fastboot command to reboot into bootloader?
The command might be accepted by phone during it's initial loading stage:
* connect phone to a computer
* run command (e.g. fastboot reboot-bootloader), must be waiting for response from device
* reboot your phone
* if you are lucky enough the command will be accepted on load.

Installing a rom can't hard brick your device.
Try to shut it down by holding the power button and immediately press vol down + power to enter your bootloader. Then you can select recovery and install a backup of your ignorance rom or do whatever you want.
BTW: It looks like you forgot to install the kernel for the custom rom.

It isn't going to bootloader when i press power+volume down button.. :\
If I could enter the bootloader menu, I wouldn't have been this worried. :3

This command has to be run on a computer.
Similar as you are running fastboot commands to root phone or install custom recovery.
Please google if you are not familiar with fastboot commands at all.
Make sure you have installed proper phone usb drivers to make your phone "visible" from computer.
Btw how did you get running Ignorance?

You may download and try this tool:

This might be easier to start from.

You can download HTC drivers from almost any other hOV thread.
Like this one in example:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1996665
Basic Requirements. 4th item.
Remember, all you need to try with this tool is to reboot into bootloader. Try to click the tool button while your phone is starting to load.
By the way, you may find fastboot files in that thread as well (Basic Requirements. 5th item).

Yes, I have the HTC Sync installed which gives the necessary drivers for the recognition of HTC phones.. ( My ONE V)
But, the computer just sounds that music when a USB device is connected, the phone is dead. Not even lighting up..
The WinDroid isn't recognizing my device as well..

The computer should not recognize your phone because it is not loaded completely (neither os, neither recovery).
But it might be recognized for a few seconds only while trying to load os. And you might be able to supply reboot command at that particular moment.
Just try what I said.

Yeah.. I tried that.. But nothing is working.. The OS too isn't booting up. So I don't really know when my phone is on or off

Try holding power button down for 30s.

Tried. Ain't working. LED ain't even turning on while charging too.. So there's really no way to find out whether it's charging..
Update : Still haven't fixed my phone. Any help would be appreciated. Can't enter Bootloader menu. Phone when connected to computer, gives "sound" that every normal USB when connected gives.. So the phone isn't completely dead. After connecting, the computer doesnt react in any way :crying:
