[Q] stuck on htc quietly brilliant screen

Hello everyone, I made a mistake (I am a big noob) and I don't know how to fix it.
I wanted to have fresh phone (real factory reset) to back-up and start over, so in recovery mode (interim one from paul) I wiped data, cache partition and I also formated cache,data, sdcard and system.
Now, I am stuck on htc quietly brilliant screen, I have access to hboot, recovery etc. I have been looking for a solution for 2 days without succes, I am sad.
Can someone help please ? thanks guys.

You wiped the system so there is no android on there!

The part you did wrong: It's true that you wipe (dalvik) cache and data before flashing a custom rom. That will perform a factory reset. Wiping system means deleting android itself, as stated before. That's what you did wrong.
Now, we can't know why you wanted to start all over again, but assuming you already flashed a custom recovery, you wanted to install a custom rom. Just go ahaed and do so, your problem will be fixed.

thanks, but I can't because this custom recovery doesn't allow me to mount usb and i have no rom on my sd card

That's not actually a problem. I assume you aleady have the android SDK set up, if you don't, please use the search function or google. try the following command while in the platform-tools folder:
adb push path/to/custom/rom /sdcard
or for linux/mac:
sudo ./adb push path/to/custom/rom /sdcard
This will copy the file to the root of your sdcard, so you can flash it. Good luck!
P.S. there's a thanks button, too

That wont work as ADB does not work on any of the custom recoveries at the moment. Im stuck in the same situtation at the mo and as phone is branded cant get the RUU to reflash so just playing the waiting game until either ADB/USB mount available in recovery or S-Off available.

Same problem here! I unfortunatly erase everything from my one x and i can't restore anything!! How can i solve it?? My device is unlocked but stay in s-on mode! Why? From fastboot i can't flash anything! Help!!

Hello folks, problem solved by following leejames instructions :
flash stock recovery
relock bootloader
use ruu
I'm so happy. Thanks.

Mee too!! Thanks a lot!! I'm very very very very very very very very very very very very very very happy!!
1 flash stock recovery
2 relock bootloader
3 use ruu
It works fine!!

I do exactly the same thing , but half way through the RUU process it gives me an error saying i need the correct RUU. anyone can help ?

All you have to do is grab an RUU, run it. now on your pc search for %temp%in there locate ROM.zip. Extract the boot.img and system.img. and push them thru fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
Code:
adb reboot

i did that , but i get this error:
C:\ADB>fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img

Is your bootloader unlocked?

[Q] Phone loops reboot in recovery after flash

HI Guys... this is my first post here so thanks for the great forum
Here is my issue, I've installed The All-in-one tool kit to unlock my phone, all went ok for unlocking,
then i tried to flash a rom and i think i messed up pretty bad.
Just had my One X 2 weeks ago fist time flashing a One X (Did it several times with my Galaxy Ace)
Now my phone keeps on rebooting and eventually gets stuck on boot animation with the red message from CMW saying That this build is for development purposes only ect....
I cant even get in the bootloader, what are my option here?
Thanks in advance
Miamijice

it's strange that you can't go into bootloader, but anyway, can you go to recovery? if so, try to reflash. but anyway you'll need bootloader to flash boot.img ("fastboot flash boot boot.img" on cmd).
or, try to go into recovery, connect to pc, and type in cmd: "adb reboot bootloader", and you should go into bootloader, then flash boot.img

Ok... so i got into bootloader now (kinda tricky when phone reboots on it own.)
Once in bootloader i choose fastboot, then pc connects to phone, then i did fastboot flash boot boot.img in cmd in my c:/android folder (i have the ziped rom file in there too)
C:\Android>fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (4302 KB)... OKAY [ 0.953s]
writing 'boot'... OKAY [ 1.210s]
finished. total time: 2.165s
This is the result. My guess from there is to go in recovery from the bootloader. But i get stuck again rebooting and nothing happends.
I guess im missing something here... Thanks for your patience!

Reflash the recovery again and erase cache with fastboot commands, maybe it helps

Enter bootloader by holding power + volm down for 10 seconds, check if your phone says ***LOCKED*** or ***UNLOCKED at the top and also check if it says 'endeavoru' or 'evita'.

JB OTA for HTC_044 not working // manual firmware also not working (SOLVED)

I've been trying to update my HOX to JB since yesterday but to no avail:
Im on everything stock (ROM, Recovery etc) and phone is un-rooted. I relocked the bootloader too. but when the update downloads and the phone restarts after a few while, a red triangle with exclamation marks appear and phone restarts.
I've tried to do this 3 times now with no avail.
alternately i've been trying to follow this and when i reach the flashing firmware part, it fails after 2 tries and after the 3rd it just stucks:
C:\fastboot>fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
sending 'zip' (12875 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.683s]

after 3rd attempt it just stays in sending 'zip' state
anyone got a clue how i can solve either problem?! :/
note my camera app is a modified version. rest all ROM is stock. could this be the issue?! if so, then any way to resolve this other than RUU method?

The last method you tried will not work if the bootloader is still locked !

The red triangle is normally an indication that you do not have the stock recovery. Try to reflash recovery and then fastboot erase cache before trying again, You would need to unlock bootloader in order to fastboot flash recovery. As pointed out in my other reply to you, you would probably need to revert to the stock camera app as well.
Using the fastboot flash zip method, you need to have a locked bootloader and then enter command fastboot oem rebootRUU before running the fastboot flash zip command.

Ah like that ! Thanks clyde :thumbup:
I did not read carefully... was kinda busy with my mac & cheese !!!

I get to the rebootRUU step and that works, but when I try to flash the firmware.zip it always comes up with "error: cannot load "fastboot.zip" : Unknown error" do you know what the problem might be?

Fastboot.zip ..... Yeah that's wrong
Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
And the firmware file need to be named firmware.zip !

[Q] S-off method - Phone rooter by other

I just bought a rooted DInc2. I love it, and am slowly learning about. I don't know the method that the previous owner rooted the phone, but it is currently S-ON.
So, my question is: which method should I use to get it to S-OFF? I was looking at the Comprehensive S-OFF/Root Methods (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1751796), and it is not clear to me. Do I use the instructions, "Get S-OFF after using HTCDev Unlock", even if I don't know if the phone was rooted using HTCDev Unlock?
Here is info on my phone:
S-ON
HBoot 0.98.0000
Radio 1.09.01.0312
eMMC-boot
Firmware 6.01.605.05 710RD
Thanks for your help

Only way that I know for it to be still S on is through htcdev.com. Yeah use that guide.

HELP!
So, I am going through the steps to Get S-OFF after using HTCDev Unlock. I made successfully (I think!) through flashing the zip file:
Vivo_W_Gingerbread_S_VERIZON_WWE_2.18.605.3_Radio_1.09.01.0622_NV_VZW1.92_release_199487_si.zip
Everything was working as expected, so far...
Then I proceeded though these steps:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip 1.09.01.0312_vivow_Radio_PG32IMG.zip
but I get the following when I try to flash the above Radio zip file, which is copied directly from the command prompt window

What steps did you take to flash it over from your sdcard once you started in bootloader?

I copied the radio to my sdcard, with the name PG32IMG.zip. When you reboot in bootloader, it prompts you to run that file.

Don't forget to delete or rename that file when you're done so it doesn't prompt you to run that file every time you go into your boot loader.

Question Redmi 9T Stuck on Fastboot Mode After Flashing TWRP

Hi, Possibly noob question here...
I have successfully unlocked the bootloader on my redmi 9T and downloaded the corresponding twrp, it flashed successfully and returned the output
Sending 'recovery' (65536 KB) OKAY [ 1.985s]
Writing 'recovery' OKAY [ 0.258s]
Finished. Total time: 2.261s
however, I got stuck on fastboot mode, tried "fastboot reboot" command as well as using hardware keys but it boots into fastboot mode again
how can I get out of the fastboot mode or at least recover the phone to the factory state

turns out I have flashed the wrong TWRP image that caused the loop so I had to flash stock ROM to be able to use my phone. Thanks for your time ❤
