[Q] orginal HTC one X boot.img and flashing procedure - HTC One X

Hi,
I have took back up in TWRP. then flashed custom ROM and its boot image.
When I thought to restore original HTC ROM. I wiped all data and give recovery from backup in TWRP.
It updated the ROM but bootloader was not updated. The One X is hanged at boot screen. then thought of flashing boot.img file but it is not present in TWRP backup.
Anyone please share the orginal boot.img file from nandroid backup. Suggest appropriate way to recover from problem.

Flash the boot.emmc.win file ....that's the boot.img !
Fastboot flash boot boot.emmc.win

Nandroids

Hi guys!
I just came to the one x from a nexus s. As you may know the nexus s has "full s-off" as in you can flash the boot.img from recovery etc. All that it takes to flash a rom is the flash of a zip. Similarly nandroids are that simple too. I know that the one x requires you to flash the boot.img through fastboot and i was wondering what effect this has on restoring nandroid backups. If I switch to a totally different rom and decide to restore the nandroid of a previous rom, do i need to manually flash the boot.img of the previous rom?
Thanks

Yes, you can copy the boto.img and flash it using cmd commands " fastboot Erase cache" then "fastboot flash boot boot.img". Then in the recovery use the Nandroid backup. U need to flash the same boot.img of the nandroid

please note that even though nandroid cannot restore your boot.img it does back it up
so you can grab it in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/XXXXXX/boot.img
just pull it
restore your backup
go to fastboot
flash your pulled boot.img
Glad someone asked this.
I've come from a sensation, and was down with flashing ROMs
Re-learning on the One X
Nandroids backs the kernel up, but you still need to flash it through ADB.

[Q] Booting strait to custom recovery *Help*

Hey guys, I think i screwed up big time. I have just received my Htc one M8 from rogers (with no bloatware on it .. weird lol ) And i wanted to root it in order to use titanium back up.
So i followed a guide to root the phone everything went well execpt that now my phone boots straight into philz custom recovery....
When i was entering the fastboot commands to flash the recovery to the phone i made a mistake i wrote :
fastboot flash boot recovery.img
instead of
fastboot flash boot recovery recovery.img
....
So my guess is that i have overwritten the boot.img of the phone with the custom recovery which is bad... now i can't use the phone...
Is there a way to flash the stock boot image back? of to restore the phone like it was brand new?
Thanks for you help

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Yeah this is what i wanted to do but i couldn't find a boot.img. I did find it eventually. here it is in case anyone needs it
Straight, just saying.
The boot.img is always in the rom....Most roms contain the stock boot.img. or check my backup collection and download the stock rom. It has the stock boot.img inside
Thanks a lot.

Recovery

I for some reason can't get the stock recovery to flash the root file or any stock firmware. Also I can't get it to change recoveries for some reason I've tried in terminal with a few different ones and tried flashing the stock one also but it won't change. Does anything know how to fix this? Is there a back to stock thing I can flash it? I've been searching for days with no luck. Thanks

You have to flash the latest stock recovery! They patched the stock recovery and hashed for that!
Flash a custom recovery and make a nandroid backup. Save your backup for security reasons to your pc then install coloros completely new from 1.2.1and only update it with ota to 1.2.4 . Now use fastboot to boot from a custom recovery like Philz.(fastboot boot recovery.img)
Recovery.img should be replaced with the name of your recovery. Twrp won't work for this plan!, cause it don't backs up the recovery. Now make again a backup. Save the recovery.img from backup safely. Now restore your old backup and flash the captured stock recovery. Tada now your ota update should work fine!
Cheers

%i'm not responsible for any harm%
Just backup the rom trough a custom recovery, backup userdata on the pc.
download the new rom (zip) and place it on your phone, unpack the boot.img on your pc,
go in to bootloader (fastboot), and check if you can connect to it using the fastboot toolchain. (fastboot devices)
only if the commandline returns your device, continue
go in your custom recovery, and wipe system, data and cache.
then install the zip with the new rom.
then return to the bootloader, and flash the unpacked boot image by running the command: fastboot flash boot boot.img(path to your boot.img)
good luck

Flashed TWRP on the boot image

Hey ^^'
I stupidly decided to flash TWRP on the boot image. (fastboot flash boot_b TWRP.img)
The problem is that I now logically always boot on TWRP and not on the system.
Who has an idea how to delete TWRP again from the boot image? ,
Use new flasher to flash unpacked firmware from FTF file, there are many tutorials how to do this.
