Installed TWRP and battery died!! - HTC One X

So i was planning on rooting my htc one x, it wouldn't have been the first phone i root. But for some reason after fastboot unlocking and everything. The phone said:
***TAMPERED***
Fastboot unlocked
Which is a good sign because it meant i was doing things right (i suppose) but for some reason every time i would try to put it in recovery so i could get the TWRP menu it would just reboot. I said to myself "oh its 3am ill go to sleep and do it tomorrow" bad idea. Battery died overnight and now it wont turn on even if i put it to charge. I tried connecting it to the computer and the pc tries to install some drivers, it says
QHSUSB_DLOAD "X"No Driver Found
Unidentified Device "X" Device Unpluged
Any idea on what i can do to get my phone to work again?

Download the latest HTC drivers:

Find a USB2.0 port and connect your phone and try to get it into fastboot and run the charging script for a long time:

Good luck!
Edit: Sure you have a One X? Next time try one of the other available recoveries.

I'm thinking you have the one XL, i havent seen tegra 3 htc's with tampered on bootloader

I have!
Hope you managed to charge your phone using the script.
To make sure you have a One X, could you post the result of the command "fastboot getvar all" but make sure you mask your serial and IMEI.

Can fastboot use over wifi?

My phone can't connect with usb port even in bootloader so I can't flash boot.img.
Now USB completely dead and the htc repaire center want to charge $350
So I want to try to flash a new rom without USB cable is there any solution?
Or there is the way back to all stock rom include lock bootloader without USB cable
Why make 2 threads and the only way to flash boot.img is with a pc unless you have s-off

You need usb cable for things you described.
When you boot your phone into bootloader without the cable attached, and then attach the cable, do you see fastboot usb on the phone? If you do, then first upgrade your recovery to cwm 5.8.4.0. Then reboot to recovery. Under mounts and storage you will see mount sdcard.

My phone still not have a driver when I select cancel in the installation pdanet.
Maybe the install didn't go far enough. If that doesn't work then maybe you just have to do the normal installation of the Android SDK to get a driver unless someone else knows a better shortcut.
In this case my phone doesn't show the USB mass storage also in recovery 5.8.4(lastest version).
I try to re flash recovery but it's doesn't work.
In bootloader when I plug the cable it's will be show FASTBOOT USB.
But when I try to fastboot there just waiting for devices.
Do my phone brick? HTC said I have to pay $330 for change the main board.
Everything still work except USB and fastboot command(to flash new rom).
May be this problem cause is I forgot to erase cache while I install faux kernel from ncx kernel.
Can anybody tell me this is hardware or software fault if it's still fix by self please let me know I wanna learn and then
One day I can share to other thank you.

if fastboot doesn't work you are stuck...
Before you spend money I would try everything to make sure you have the correct diver installed on your Windows system. Maybe you need to delete whatever Android devices you find in Device Manager and let them try to reinstall when you plug in the phone.
Also, it's a longshot, but you might just try rebooting your PC. I usually do my work on Linux, but I had a situation (twice) where an Android tablet caused a problem on my system such that adb and fastboot no longer worked with my HOX until I rebooted the system.
That's mean I'm brick? only way to fix is changing mainboard?.
Do have another way to back to all stock?

How about wireless adb? Do this way can flash something or re install the system?
Still cant fix this problem.
Do someone have some advance solution to fix USB not response with fastboot?
I still can get in to recovery but can't mount the usb and adb doesn't work with USB debug is always on and all driver are re-install.
Ps.My windows not recognize my device but FASTBOOT USB still show up in bootloader when I plug it.

[Q] One x won't recognise computer.

Hi,
I want to root my One X (international) but I get stopped straight away because my phone won't connect to my computer. When I plug the USBs to both my computer and my phone nothing happens, except charging. There are no options given and the phone doesn't show up as a drive on the computer.
I've installed HTC Synch Manager, tried 4 USB cords, tried 3 computers, I've switched on USB Debugging.
The HOX is on Android 4.1.1
Any ideas? I've scoured many forums to no avail. I'd really like to try some custom roms.
Cheers,
Hello
I have the same problem with my HOX and no solution
Gr
Are you saying there is no solution or that you don't know of one? Can someone confirm that this is a known and unresolvable problem or should I keep looking for a solution?
I will have a try then.....the bootloader is untouched (locked) and the phone has never been detected by the pc before ?
Also interesteded in what OS you are running !
Do you have the latest HTC usb drivers installed? Have you checked in device manager to see if phone is visible? Latest version of HTC sync installed?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Thanks. I bought the phone second hand from a young lass who had broken the screen (which I have replaced) so I presume the phone is standard and been updated to 4.1.1.
Some software information:
Software number 3.14.862.27
HTC SDK API level 4.63
Kernel version:3.1.10-g5ebf4bc [email protected]#1 SMP PREEMPT
I don't know if the phone has ever been detected by a computer before. I have installed the latest HTC Sych Manager on my Vista computer and no, the phone isn't detected in the device manager.
Although I have rooted my previous phone (Defy) and had kept up to date with the latest roms I am still fairly new at this.
Thanks for any help.
And the OS on your pc ?

Drivers or not, when you plug it in it should be recognized as something. Or a HTC phone or a unknown device anyway....

That's what I thought but I get nothing except charge. That is why I've tried a number of cables. I'm suspecting my micro USB socket is faulty. I've cleaned it and even checked how it's mounted. Solidly soldered so I'm checking every other avenue before replacing it as I have a dead Hox for spares.
Any idea if there is a way of rooting without a computer?
Nope ...not possible without a pc

Ok. So is it your opinion that I'm stymied? Are there any other avenues I can try?
The phone is pretty good the way it is, I just like playing around with Roms etc. I'd also like to get rid of the Vodafone crap.
My guess something is broken somewhere in the usb connection....ofcourse, otherwise it would be recognized. But you figured that out already. Maybe a phone repair shop can take a quick peek at it ?
Otherwise your stuck on what you have now.
Well, it connects to the PC, but it only charges so I think this might be a software bug. Maybe you could try to root it and see if it fails at adb commands. My guess is that it will work. Just follow a rooting guide CAREFULLY and don't skip any steps.

But he can't flash anything because there is no data connection, only power connection
First make sure usb debugging is on in settings. Maybe unlocking the bootloader and rooting will work. It's done from the fastboot usb screen where adb and fastboot commands should work. Give it a try before sending for repair.

I definitely agree with his idea, but the first thing you should do is completely restore you're one x.
Then check in hboot, that's power volume down wether the device is locked or relocked.
After that get the latest drivers, connect your hox in fastboot and try to unlock your device via HTC devs.com
Good Luck.
P.S. tell us what happens, we might find a solution all together

Thanks for this. You have given me some hope.
I've done a factory reset, checked that Debugging is on and checked in Hboot, it says *** LOCKED ***
I've connected the HOX to my Vista computer in which I've installed HTC Synch Manager. I presume this installs the latest drivers?
My Hox is still not recognised by the computer. When I request the identifier token it gets stuck on < Waiting for device >
Have I followed your instructions correctly?
Edit 1: Just to be sure I repeated the procedure on my desktop computer which is also running Vista. Same results.
Is there any way of extracting the identifier token within the phone?
Edit 2: I pulled the motherboard out and checked the micro USB port with a microscope. Pretty grotty inside so I cleaned, tightened and checked it. All clean but still no computer connection.

Any news/luck? Would like to know the outcome for this. :banghead:

Okay, so far so good. What you can do next is: go to settings/apps/all apps

One-year old rooted HOX stuck on CM09 bootloader

Hi all,
Last night I restarted my phone and since then I haven't managed to boot into the rom. I rooted it a year ago so this is rather surprising now. It's stuck on the CM09 bootloader. Any suggestions? No backups are available.
Thank you!
Lets get it back to stock and then also update the software + hboot so you can run all jellybean roms again
Do this fastboot command please
Fastboot getvar version-main
Post the outcome number
Thank you for the quick reply Mr Hofs!
Here is my number:
version-main: 1.28.771.9

2) Reboot your phone into fastboot
3) in cmd - fastboot oem lock
4) Run the downloaded file with administrator rights.
This will bring you back to 100% stock.

The phone is charging, but it's still not over 30%. I'm running the .exe file you proposed (many thanks!) but it won't load it as the battery is under 30%.
I've left my phone to charge on the laptop and will try again in a couple of hours, once it gets more juice (hopefully).
I tried checking battery status on adb, but I get an error message "device not connected" or "not found" (cannot remember which).
Put the phone in the bootloader and execute the script from the fastboot folder on the pc !
Or enter the custom recovery and charge the battery in there

When she's above 10% she should be able to enter a custom recovery. Fastboot erase cache will help. Running the batch will work too but its less good for the phone and it will indeed take longer

Dear men, let's clarify first one thing: I'm a woman!
So, got back, the phone was switched off, no charging light or any indication. After messing with my phone a bit, connecting it to my mac and then pc, I got the bootloader back.
Battery level went down.
I erased cache. I'm letting it charge a bit more and then see if I can enter recovery (right now it's impossible). But wait, can I enter recovery since I've relocked the phone?
Oh dear ! Apologies
Never tried to acces the recovery with a locked bootloader but it should be possible. Or try to unlock it and flash a custom recovery to charge in there. You need 10% of power to do that.
Edit :
You need a custom recovery to charge .....charging in a stock recovery won't work. Just for info

I can confirm that I can't access recovery.
Sooo... in order to re-lock it, do I follow the original procedure that I used in first place? From the HTC dev website etc etc? Or is there a simpler way to do it nowadays?
Thank you very much for the help guys!
Edit:
Tried unlocking bootloader but didn't work, battery is too low...
FAILED <remote: battery low>
Then the only way is to charge the phone switched off, or running the batt script.
Relocking is done with a fastboot command
Fastboot oem lock
And unlocking can be done with the unlock_code.bin file you got the first time in the mail from htc. Put the file in the fastboot folder and use this command to unlock the bootloader again if you wish
Fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin
Hi there!
I've just fixed my One X. I had a problem with the ROM and not workind ADB, I was stuck and couldn't reinstall an another ROM because I couldn't acces the phone memory and nothing.
Don't know in which case you're stuck now, but if you want to reinstall an another ROM just use the "HTC One X All in one tool" and reinstal Clockwork recovery, when done with that, push an another ROM to your "sdcard" using ADB, flash the boot.img and reinstall the ROM.
Only issue is that you lose your data!
This really worked for me, I was stuck with this problem for lets say 16 hours without a brake, and I've DONE IT!!

I have previously rooted and unlocked via the HTC developers code that they sent to me, and that all went fine. However, now my PC will not recognize the phone when it is in fastboot, and the HBOOT menu says I am ***TAMPERED***
Phone is recognized via HTC Sync program, and will go throught the initial steps in the RUU update file from HTC.com but as soon as the bootloader starts up, I is unrecognized again...
If anyone has any ideas or recommendations, or if there is any more information I can give you, please let me know.

If you were unlocked and s-on then you must relock bootloader before updating with ruu.
Just type this in fastboot, without the quotes
"Fastboot oem lock" in command prompt.

how would one do this if phone is not recognized in fastboot mode via adb?
uninstall htc sync. drivers will stay. sync gets in the way sometimes. I just used the ruu from the htc site and the setup wizard did it all. very easy, you could do it that way, no need to relock bootloader. or flash one of the Jellybean roms jmz has out. that would be the easiest way.
Thanks. Tried uninstalling HTC sync, and rebooting my pc. Still hangs when the phone restarts into bootloader. Still telling me it is unrecognized...

hboot and fastboot menus are the same. the tampered part is because of the custom recovery. if you are selecting fastboot and pc is not detecting the device, thats odd. if you havent, change usb port and cable.
it is possible to get drivers issues with fastboot/hboot. when connecting usb cable after fastboot is selected does it change to FASTBOOT USB?
did you turn USB debugging on? are you going to fastboot after going into the bootloader?

I have tried with about 3 different USB cables, and every different available USB port. all to no avail. If i select fastboot manually by holding the power and volume down, then it will say fastboot, until I push the volume up or down, then it will switch to fastboot usb.
when the RUU program triggers a reboot into the fastboot mode (I'm assuming that's what it is trying to do, anyway) it just hangs on a black screen with a big white HTC logo, until the program times out and I have to exit. Restarting the phone is no issue, because it just starts up like normal.

Do "fastboot oem rebootRUU". You should see the device in device manager. Then run the ruu again.

you said that the phone gets into black screen with htc white letters. that means normal fastboot still works because the RUU sends that same command. i ask you again to check windows device manager and see if your device is there. if its not, try unplug and replug usb cable.
Unplugging and plugging the cord back in did nothing. Device manager lists the device as unknown. It says something about device reporting error.

So I tried on windows 7, and the RUU is able to get as far as the part that says updating signature, at which point it sits there for a few minutes, then gives me error 132 and tells me to download the correct rom update utility for my phone??!
Is there any chance that having twrecovery is causing this? If so, an ideas on how to go back to stock recovery?

If you are s-on then you have to relock bootloader to flash ruu.

Bricked it good

I bought an M7 on launch day, unlocked via HTCdev while that brief window was open and S-Off'd. After years of being out of my possession, I got it back today. It will only boot to the spashscreen and to bootloader, and fastboot. If I try to factory reset or enter recovery the screen turns off, but I think the phone may actually be staying on, can't say for sure. I can't access internal storage, but my computer knows something is there. HTC Sync does not see it. Can't see it via adb or fastboot. If I hold the power button down long enough while it's connected to the computer I can hear it disconnect and presumably turn off. The charging indicator will light up, but then turn off shortly after, same thing happens when I put it on the charger. This is the only way I can get the phone to charge, and only for a brief moment. It will not charge while on the splash screen or while in bootloader. I'm sure it's probably toast, but I can't stop fighting it. Any help is much appreciated.

I've still been fighting with it, with no luck. Am I correct to assume it is a paperweight at this point?
if you can get in bootloader, have you tried to get to the ruu screen? "fastboot oem rebootRUU"

I cannot get fastboot to recognize the phone. If fastboot can see my M9, I am assuming fastboot and adb should be working correctly with the M7, correct?

What version of windows are you using? Are you using correct HTC drivers? does the PC even recognise the phone at all? My wife's M7 USB went. It charges, but won't xfer data (linux just charges the phone and win 7 says the device has malfunctioned), so yours might be in the same boat.

I'm running windows 10. I'm not 100% what drivers I've been using but I verified adb and fastboot are working with my M9. If i put the M7 into fastboot, it shows up in device manager, under Android USB Devices > My HTC (with and orange triangle). Windows is also saying the device has malfunctioned. When plugged into the computer the devices behaves the same was as when plugged into wall, charging led blinks slowly for a few seconds then turns off.

You mentioned having HTC sync issues in your initial post. I've read that you want to get HTC sync completely off of your PC. Oh, then make sure you have the right usb drivers installed.

I just installed HTC Sync it to see if it would recognize the device. It didn't make any difference. I've since uninstalled. USB drivers should be the same for M7/M9 correct? I'm have no trouble with fastboot/adb talking to my M9.
Hey there! I have a HTC One M7 Vzn variant. Initially in your 1st post, you say it shows you the HTC Splash screen and the boatloader. Will the phone still go into the boatloader screen?
Yes. I can get into the bootloader with power & volume -, white splash screen with power & vol+. I think Uzephi may be correct about the USB port.

USB replacement is a pain on these phones. Thankfully, I Haven't had to do it yet

It's definitely not a fun thing. I already tore it down, took the old one out. I don't know if I'm going to replace it or not. I've got my M8 & 9, plan on getting the 10. It'd be nice to have the collection together. That would be the only reason I do it.

If you already have it torn down, might as well replace it. Charge port part is relatively inexpensive from what I've seen.

i do service htc phones, but in my experience. windows 10 gives me problem with older HTC devices, it often gives usb malfunction, usb enumerator etc. irrespective of the usb and drivers i used. But the m7 with higher boot loader will work, but if you android version 4.1.2 sense 5 it will do that. what android version do you have at the time before this?
i will advice you to use windows 7
A phone is not meant to play.
