Hi All,
I've just tried to root my htc one x (international). using the All in one toolkit V3.0 [7-16-2013
I went through step 1 to 5 (unlock bootloader) with no problems. I perm rooted and flashed TWRP but now I'm stuck!
-On the bootloader screen, I select Hboot > recovery.
-It loads the 'teamwin' screen and I see all options (install wipe etc)
-Problem is that the touch screen stops working. When I hit the power button it just tells me to 'swipe to unlock' which doesn;t work either.
I searched for solutions online but cant find any. Anyone got suggestions? I hope I've provided sufficient information.
Thanks
Search for a thread with philz recovery, touch not working is because of an update that HTC put out.
Try and flash philz recovery
And more important.. make a nandroid backup! It will safe you so much hassle

Thanks a lot Stefan0vic. Sorry if this is a dumb question but should I download Philz software and then Flash it using the 'custom ROM' option in the all in one kit?
No you probably need to rename the file to recovery.img and flash it just like you did with twrp.
Great, I'm gonna try it out tonight, thanks a million guys.
Good luck!

Gentlemen, it worked! Thank you so much!!
Always good to hear that !
Hey Guys, has any of you got experience with installing roms through Philz?
Firsly I tried Cyanogenmod and although I got it to boot, it keeps crashing when I also install GAPPS (literraly unusable as I keep getting the error (unfortunately the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped).
I therefore decided to give Viper a go, I cleared all cache/reset to factory reset. First I flashed the boot.img from viper through the all in kit ( I connect my phone to laptop in bootloader > Flash Custom rom). Then I reset into bootloader and boot philz .img so I can get back into philz < am I doing something wrong here? I cant think of another way to do it!
From Philz, I install the viper zip file. It starts up the wizard, but then halfway through installing it restarts the phone and all I see is the HTC one X loading screen.
I've now wiped it again and installed cyanogenmod without GAPPS for the time being, but I cant download apps as I dont have the playstore.
Any advise on how to fix either CM or Viper would be appreciated. Again, I did search but couldnt find any help on the combination of Philz and any of these 2 customer ROMS.
your help is much appreciated!!
Viper rom :
Flash the boot.img !
Inside recovery :
Factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Advanced-wipe dalvik cache
Mounts&storage-format cache,data,system
Then install zip from sdcard and choose the viper x rom.zip
If the installer stops halfway it could be a bad rom.zip download !

Thanks Hofs. When I flash the boot.img from the viper download package, it doesn't seem to bring me into any kind of recovery screen? Am I missing something?
Flashing the boot.img is done with the phone in the bootloader.
Try this :
Put the phone in the bootloader, copy the boot.img to the folder on the pc that contains the fastboot.exe file !
Then hold down shift and click the right mouse button while pointing in the folder with the fastboot.exe file.
Then select :
Open command window here
Then type there :
Fastboot flash boot boot.img (enter)
Fastboot erase cache (enter)
Then enter the recovery and do all steps i posted earlier
Right.. I think I'm missing one vital piece here
copy the boot.img to the folder on the pc that contains the fastboot.exe file
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I don't have such a folder? Should I install the fastboot application first? Any chance you can give me a high level overview of how to use it? So far I've done everything using Philz and the All in one toolkit for the one X..

The all in one toolkit must have a folder with the fastboot file otherwise it can't work. Look inside those subfolders and do all steps i wrote from there
Ok there seems to be a fastboot.exe in the data folder of the all in one. I shall try this later when I get home. Thanks again chief!
Ok so installed the ROM, i can see the viper custom wallpaper but the touchscreen has stopped working again any ideas?
Sure you flashed this one

And not the "old" 2.6 ICS version ?
Feeling like a right idiot! I used an outdated link from a video tutorial. All working now!! Thanks SO much again Mr hofs much appreciated!!
No problem ! You learned and tried and now it works :thumbup:

Hey guys I've just unlocked the bootloader on my HOX and installed CWM and rooted. I had a Galaxy S2 before so flashing roms was a bit different and before I end up bricking my my new phone, I just wanted to get some more info/confirmation as to what I (think) I know before flashing a new rom, Android Revolution. Hopefully this can help some other noobs.
I've downloaded the required files, the rom zip, the kernel bootimg and super wipe.
I have a FAIR GENERAL idea of the steps but I'd like to confirm here before damaging my device.
To my knowledge:
1) Place the rom zip on the internal SD card via USB cable as normal along with the super wipe zip.
2) Boot into the bootloader, enter fastboot and connect the phone via USB and open CMD from the same folder used to root it, with those files present. When CMD is opened enter fastboot devices to ensure the device is being detected and then flash the bootimg kernel using the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
3) (unsure of this step and following steps...) After flashing the bootimg via adb reboot the device and enter bootloader mode again and this time enter recovery.
4) In CWM, reset to factory settings (data wipe), clear cache, clear davlik and then flash the super wipe zip and finally flash the rom.
Those are the steps I know..and I've also read of a .bat file to execute the adb commands automatically but I don't know exactly how that works and I'm a bit scared to try it. I've done my research so please don't flame me for asking this, I'm just scared as hell to brick my new phone.
If someone has a clearer simpler list of steps please post them or please correct any errors I have there. Thanks in advance for the help guys

Making the bat file is very simple..I'll help you on fb if you want...Everything else looks good though...do you really need to connect to the pc every time you want to flash? 0_0

The bat file isn't an issue..once I have the correct commands (if someone can confirm that too it'd be appreciated ) I'm good. And yeah I think so because a kernel ..or bootimg can't be flashed in CWM cuz its S-On ..so anytime u need to flash a new rom I guess you'd have to flash the kernel for that Rom via fastboot.

Well it could be a couple things. Maybe you don't have enough swagger to start the rom? Didn't follow the installation instructions properly. Or the most likely one is didn't flash the boot.img in fastboot.
The rom works 100% so you must have messed up som where.
Make sure you wipe data, system, dalvic cache and cache under custom recovery. Boot into bootloader and select fastboot and open CMD on your computer.
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Flash rom
Done.
Easy as pie and hell boot loops like the one your experiencing now happen quite often. Just restart and try again.

I thought it was an option to flash via fastboot or use recovery.
Anyway by "Flash rom" I assume use recovery.
BTW do you know of any windows 8 drivers that work with the phone?
Edit: got it working no worries

You have to flash the boot.img in fastboot if your device is S-ON which in no doubt it probably is. There are some Windows programs and batch files that can do it for you but personally using those 3 commands is the easiest and safest way.
Flash only the rom .zip in recovery.
Install HTC One X driver on Windows 8
I see your quite new to XDA so I recommend you to get familiar with the search button. If you have a problem with your device XDA is probably the #1 place to get help. I wouldnt doubt someone else has had the same problem as you so a quick search in our forums could help you find your way. Also having a look at the forum rules couldn't hurt.
Nice choice choosing ICJ as your first rom! It's one of my favorites too but also check out ViperX and TripNRaVeR's kernels.
ICJ
Hi there good choice in rom as you can see i am new to but been on ICJ since oct and its really good and all the guys there are more than willing to help and are good guys.
Matt
There is a very good tutorial in the op of the thread you can check and follow the easy steps there and you will be good to go.

Appreciated any help I can get here.
I'm attempting to flash my first custom ROM by following the instructions here (http://drippler.com/updates/share/how-unlock-root-install-custom-rom-your-htc-one-x).I've got to point 5 and instead of copying the zip file and boot.img to my phone I stupidly went and carried out the 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' command first. The result is the phone just hangs on the boot screen.
I can get back into recovery OK, but after a couple of hours searching I'm struggling to see how I can resolve this. I have tried a full restore from recovery but it didn't work.
I assume I have to put the boot.img and ROM zip file back on the phone and repeat the process. I cannot find a way to enable me to do this as I cant seem to mount the phone on the PC.
Thanks in advance.
You can mount the sdcard as a usb mass storage device inside the recovery. What recovery do you have ?
You flashed the new boot.img already ? All you have to do is enter the recovery and perform a full wipe before you install the new rom. Of the rom is not on the phone sd you mount it first and copy the rom over. Then continue to install it

I have Clockmod v5.8.1.8
No I didn't transfer the boot.img file from the new ROM to the phone. I just typed 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' into the command prompt. The new boot.img file was in the fastboot folder.
http://db.tt/Krlm4dPs
Flash the above recovery, you have an old one that does not support usb mass storage !
Ow and the boot.img does not have to be on the phone, only the rom.zip to install it. The boot.img file is only flashed in fastboot as you did. No need to do anything else.
When you enter the new recovery you go to
MOUNTS & STORAGE - mount as mass storage device (most bottom option)

OK, thank you. New recovery installed, zip file transferred. Wipe cache partition & Wipe Dalvik Cache completed. Install from zip file completed. Re-boot and it still hangs.
I'm using the CM10 nightly from 17/2/2013 if this presents a problem at all?
I've also tried 'fastboot erase cache', which has no effect either.
Flash this boot.img

Also wipe everything ! Also data factory reset and under mounts and storage - format cache,data,system
Otherwise it will not boot again

Appreciate you taking time to help me out. Thank you. Were still not there though, it's still hanging on the first boot screen.
The CM10 zip file is only 171MB which seems awfully small to me. I'm currently downloading the Viper Rom 3.3.7 which is 625MB. Could this be part of the issue? Am I trying to flash just an update and not full ROM?
Nope, AOSP ROMs are small in size. The zip you have is legitimate full ROM.

Thank you, that's that theory out of the window, I think this bloody phone may follow it !
Try this.....
First in recovery do
Wipe data factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Advanced - wipe dalvik cache
Mounts and storage - format cache, data, system
Then install the rom.zip, dont reboot and install directly the gapps.zip
Then you type
Adb reboot bootloader
Flash the boot.img again (for cm10 the modded one)
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot reboot
*fingers crossed*

Also you probably want to flash a new recovery as well. Clockwork recovery has a habit of failing on one x phones. TWRP is currently the most stable recovery for One X.

Keep your pants on mate, it was just a joke....
I've tried lots and lots of things for hours now and I've still been stuck in the boot screen of htc for the past 4 hours. And yes, I've googled so much and tried all solutions that people have had, and it's still not working.
I have tried wiping, installing ROM, go into recovery, fastboot flash boot boot.img, reboot and it hasn't worked for me.
I've tried both TWRP and CWM to install my ROM. I have a backup in TWRP that I did before it derped, but it doesn't turn my phone into working state again.
The ROM I'm trying to activate is the Cyanogen Mod 10.1 from the weekly link.
Only once I managed to get the Cyanogen boot screen (it got stuck there too), but after flashing my boot.img it disappeared. I tried updating my hboot with something I downloaded.
What have I done wrong? After reading all those threads, I'm totally clueless.
What is your hboot number ?

Oke do this
If you have cwm 5.8.4.0 (otherwise flash it to follow these steps)
Enter the recovery and perform a full wipe
Data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Mounts and storage-format cache,data,system
Advanced-wipe dalvik cache
install the CM10.1.zip (do not reboot after)
install gapps (do not reboot after)
Then type in the fastboot window :
Adb reboot bootloader
Flash the boot.img file from the rom
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot reboot !

I followed your steps so precisely... but it didn't work Also I think I've done something close to this process before and had no success.
What you did differently though, I never installed gapps, and I didn't know that you can wipe dalvik cache in CWM.
What I had to do during your method though was go into mount SD storage and insert a fresh copy of both the gapps and CM10.1.
If you need any more information I'd gladly provide them as quick as possible, I'll be refreshing this thread constantly
Try my steps again but this time use a completely different rom. Try a standard sense base rom. Just to check if its booting ! Ow and you can leave the step for gapps away. And you can choose to do the boot.img thing first and then the recovery part.

I downloaded ViperX_2.6.0 instead (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1745176), since it was pretty much done right before you added the suggestion. The guide there tells me to flash the boot first then install the rom, but I did the rom first. IT WORKED! Thought it was stuck in the bootscreen again haha. I got to the unlock screen, but after unlocking all I saw was the HTC symbol. I then held the power button and pressed restart. Same thing after restart. After unlocking, all I see is a white screen with the HTC symbol in the middle. Can only lock the phone :/ Is it me or the ROM?
Or the phone ! Strange ..... But you must flash a JB rom to check if your bootloader supports it. The viper x 2.6 is an old ics one and runs on any hboot.
Actually is doesn't matter what you do first ..... It works both ways.
Test the bugX Rom. Flash the boot.img that is inside the bugX.zip copy it out to the fastboot folder and flash it directly from there. Make sure to full wipe again and install the rom .....I don't know what else....doing it like this for months and never failed.

Thank you very much mate :laugh: just one more question though, why can't i accept calls on the new rom(slim bean 4.2.2 official) and i can't connect to browser and app store(im guessing this is because of the google apps package,that i didn't see that i should install)
The way to install it, install the rom.zip and then right away the gapps.zip without a reboot in between !

Copy the rom.zip on the sdcard of the phone. Open the rom.zip and copy out the boot.img into the fastboot folder on the pc
Phone in the bootloader and flash it
Fastboot erase cache

Backup data in recovery. You should have backed it up before updating the hboot.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

i meant the data on the phone, not the rom itself, i meant the apps and the music and the pictures and all of the settings

can you tell me how do i make my lockscreen unlock just with swiping on the three buttons on the screen. I got the AOSP lockscreen and when i swipe my fingers along the buttons it fires my screen but the swipe basically just substitues the power button.. Can i unlock my screen just by swiping on the three buttons ?
Well there is a swipe to unlock feature in the tweaks app ! Look around for it in there....i never used, i only know it exists
