[Q] HTC One X almost dead :(

Hello all,
I'm asking for you help about my dead (almost) HTC ONE X that I got 1 month ago...
I tried to flash a new custom ROM on it and everything went fine for rooting and stuff...
The ROM that I was supposed to flash needed a boot.img to be flashed first, which I did but I forgot to put the ZIP containing the custom ROM in my sdcard. Now, when I reboot my phone, it freezes on the HTC logo and can't go on.
I still can get it connected via adb and recovery.
I restored my backup but it doesn't change a thing to make it work.
I tried a hard factory reset
I pushed the zip file that I was supposed to flash, but when I try to flash it from recovery, it can't be found!!!
I don't know what else to do, I need help......please and thank you in andvance !

Go to recovery, mounts and storage, then mount usb storage. With your usb-cable connected you sould be able to copy over your ROM to sd-card and flash normally.

Try to mount several times. If that doesn't work you need to flash another recovery such as twrp. What version of cwm are you on?

Alright stay cool, your phone isn't bricked. Download this: http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img. and flash in fastboot. Go to fastboot> fastboot flash recovery [the file.img] After that try mounting again and it should work.

EDIT: In other ways, what ROM do you suggest me to use that's stable and fully working ?

The rom you were about to flash in the first place. The one you have already flashed the boot.img from.

I can highly recommend CM10 provided that you can live without sense. Really smooth and fully functional.
And remember to flash the boot.img from CM10 if you decide to install it. :thumbup:

I can't find this ROM that you're talking about knowing that I'm stil in newbe in this domain
I found a ROM called skydragon, that I'm going to try.
Is it alright with my fastboot version and the recovery one that I try this ROM or others ?

I've never tried skydragon ROM and still think you should flash CyanogenMod 10. It is totally safe for everyday use. You can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1786696
And one more thing: flashing skydragon requires updating hboot which might be too tricky and has its own disadvantages so not recommending that.

I'm not quite sure. Please try to get some rom to the phone and after using that you can try new roms and find the one that suits you best. I'm going to bed now so try to manage on your own. :thumbup:

Some roms are more minimal with just the basic apps, whereas some are nearer to the official HTC roms, with Sense etc.
Make sure that you have the correct firmware HBoot for any particular rom. By the sounds of it, you can't currently install the JellyBean custom roms (bar CM10) with the Hboot you have.

I know not all ROMs work on every phone but out of three surely one would load properly , any advice great fully received

Critical HTC One X - No Software

Hi!
Today I flashed the CM 10.2.1 ROM to my Htc one x and it did work but i accidentally got the wrong gapps. Now I want my old stock back and I had saved a Nandroid backup and when i was going to restore it worked, but when i rebooted the phone hanged on the HTC One logo.
CID: HTC_102
Mainver: 4.18.401.2
I need a Nandroid backup for this, cause I can't reach my own from the internal one x SD card..
Or can I use a RUU?
Thanks!

Use a ruu

I haven't find any ruu that fits for my HTC, CID: HTC_102 and vers. 4.18.402.1

There is no ruu ! Flash a recovery that lets you mount the sdcard (philz 5.15 for example) go to the backup folder and copy out the boot.img and recovery.img
Flash the boot.img
Flash the recovery.img
and perform a full wipe in recovery and restore, reboot......and done !

Trying that now. Btw, why could I restore to the nandroid backup thru CWM before I installed a new ROM, but now I can't anymore, seems like it's broken or something. Because everytime I press restore, it's restoring and when I reboot it directs me to the CWM recovery again..?

Sure you did a full wipe before you restore it ? Sure you flashed back the recovery from the nandroid backup ?
Otherwise go here

Yes I did.
I can't use a nandroid backup with a different CID, right? I got HTC_102 and the only one there is 3.18. My mainver is 4.18

You can use any 4.18, but the 3.18 works too. If you restore the 3.18 and flash back the 3.18 stock recovery you can update again via ota !
Edit :
If you decide to use a different cid nand then you need at least one ota to pull the cid right.

Now there's only one thing left. I don't got battery in my phone, i charged it over the night but it doesn't have any battery still. I'm using CWM 5.8.2.7 recovery, so I know that's the prob. But how do i fix it if I can't even flash a new recovery?

You have to run a batt batch script from your fastboot folder.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/aaah8gqz8j024xz/Batt script.bat
Put the phone in the bootloader and execute the script with admin rights, it will continuously reboot the phone and charge it little by little. If it reaches 3700 mv you flash the philz recovery and charges the batt more in there because it supports charging inside recovery

Yes, I got 3555mV now..

Can't run it as an admin (wrong folder)

Is it rebooting the phone constantly ? Right click the batt script and select run as administrator

Now I flashed philz recovery; Format partition SOS done
I erased the cache
I rebooted the phone into bootloader, selected recovery and then it hangs itself on the HTC 'Quientlly brilliant' logo.
I tried also just starting the phone, it returned to the CWM recovery..

ALWAYS fastboot erase cache after flashing anything, recoveries and boot.img files. Then let it charge more in the recovery. So you don't get stuck in the charging issue situation again !
What you can do is look for Mike's 4.18 rom thread. Install that as a normal custom rom and flash back the stock recovery too which can be found in the OP of the rom thread.
Done

[Q] HTC One X help with Custom Roms

hello i would like to know witch is the best roms to use on my
HTC One X
Android Ver: 4.2.2
HTC Sense Ver: 5.0
Software Number: 4.18.206.4
HTC SDK API Level: 5.41
Kernel Ver: 3.1.10-g7f360be
I have tried to look for one but i can only find ones for 4.18.401.2

You mean you want to go back to the original stock rom ? In that case you need a nandroid backup. Check the collection of nandroid backups in the general section if there is one available. You also should have made one yourself.
If you want to use a custom rom you can use any of the ones available.
And to point out for the "best" rom....it does not exist, try a few and see for yourself if the rom fits you or not.

i want a custom rom on i have tried to put one on but it just gos back to the same rom i have now

Depends on what you did. This is how you have to do it :
- Unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery
1: Flash the boot.img from the new rom
2: make a full wipe in the recovery
3: install the rom
4: reboot
If it boots back to the original you definitely forgot something

Oke ....
Flash this recovery if you havent got it already on it
https://www.dropbox.com/s/yqzlpqo8illa53j/Philz recovery 5.15.9.img
Enter it and do this :
Factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Advanced - wipe dalvik cache
Mounts and storage - format cache, data and system
Install the rom and choose in the aroma installer CACHE WIPE ONLY.
Let the installer run and reboot
Assuming you flashed the boot.img correctly.
And give the first boot some time, it takes longer than normal (about 5-7 minutes tops)

Hmm well all the things in the phone are matching the needed criteria, the recovery i gave you, your hboot, the rom and how to install it. It should not be a problem unless there is a hardware/memory access problem somewhere.
Try another rom the way i described the steps.

Yeah flash philz 5.15 from my link, flash the boot.img from a sense 5 rom, make a full wipe and install the rom !
And if it bootloops you boot it into the recovery and let the battery charge in there, otherwise you will have another problem very soon !

is it necessary to install stock rom? or it is even fine with custom rom by philz recovery ?

You can use any custom rom you like, or indeed use the stock rom.
If you wish to restore your backup it's recommended to flash the boot.img and the recovery.img from the nandroid backup folder, make a full wipe and restore the backup

No.....I had kept my phones power down and left it over to charge but after a long time i noticed that charging sign which was not present before,but anyways it didnt boot ahead
I m flashing the recovery now as the phone is quite charged.

It shows assert failed : getprop and lot many things and finally gives installation aborted . Did it from philz Recovery.

What rom again ? Philz 5.15 only supports NON kitkat roms ! Any sense 5 rom should be flashed fine with that recovery. Otherwise take the TWRP i linked before !

It is inst mounting the sd card. Should i restore the backup by flashing the boot.img of stock rom? And secondly it shows something like this when I perform wipe dalvik cache.
