So, I tried to get the latest Cyanogenmod on my phone.
Resulted in the the process com.android.phone has stopped issue.
FInally managed to get around that but no my phone is stuck with no CWM, no USB Windows fileshare and a HTC bootscreen.
I have searched, and read a lot of posts and the closes thing to recovery is a post on putting on a Nandroid backup for my Y13 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140)
But, since I have no USB fileshare I am unable to get it on the phone and start the process.
Can anybody point me in the right direction?
I need to completely wipe and reinstall everything but has no access other that fastboot USB.
What info should I post and how do I find it if more is needed.

Thanks Thant!
So, I have downloaded Philz, I think I have flashed the recovery.img file over to the phone from CMD shell window.
I have rebooted my phone to fastboot menu and selectet recovery.
The result is still the same. Just the htc boot screen.
I`m sure I`m doing something wrong but cant figure out how. Philz How to uses USB / PC file transfer so I`m unable to use it as a step by step.
Would really appreciate a step by step command overview. If possible with an explanation so that I learn why I do the different commands. Then I wont be so f.. ignorant about these things anymore. Hopefully

Hello,
I bought my HTC One X for playing full screen games. For this reason, the three dot
menu thing was extremely annoying. After a quick google search, I found a solution.
Everything I did I took extreme care with, rereading all instructions before doing anything as I bricked my Galaxy S Plus before and I didn't want a repeat.
First I tried to unlock the bootloader, which was a success! I then tried to flash clockwork recovery which was successful also. Then, I flashed superuser and I was rooted!
The final step, was to flash a zip I downloaded from this forum. So I turned it on, and it goes up to the bit that says HTC ONE Beats Audio, then stops, for good.
I have no idea what to do next, I tried to follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1609190 but it is beyond my capabilities to understand it.
Please help me, I am only sisxteen and had to save for two years to buy this phone!
Extra information:
Three dot fix from http://www.guidingtech.com/10821/disable-3-three-dot-menu-htc-one-x-map-to-task-switcher-button/
Using interim touch recovery (CWM)
Software version before crash was 1.28
Sorry for being a noob but my mental well being depends on seeing the HTC Clock greet me once again!
It get stuck because you're using a deodex android.policy.jar in an odex stock ROM as it won't work.
Do you have any nandroid backup or any ROM.zip on your sdcard ? If yes, you can go to recovery and restore or flash the ROM.zip.
If you don't have any of them, you need to flash the official RUU for your phone but you need to flash the stock boot.img, stock recovery.img, relock the bootloader and flash RUU.

You also can try this ODEXED_Stock_menubarmod_revert2stock_1.28.zip Here, if it works it will save the hassle to download the RUU and revert to stock.
What you need to do is:
1) Download the ODEXED_Stock_menubarmod_revert2stock_1.28.zip and copy it to your android sdk/tools (or whatever directory your android sdk is)
2) I believe you still have the recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img in your android sdk/tools
3) in bootloader, open CMD type: fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img
4) once you're in recovery, go to mounts and storage, mount the sdcard (I normally mount all cache, data, system and sdcard)
5) in CMD:
adb push ODEXED_Stock_menubarmod_revert2stock_1.28.zip /sdcard
The file will be copied to your sdcard.
6) choose install zip from sdcard and flash the ODEXED_Stock_menubarmod_revert2stock_1.28.zip
7) choose advance, wipe dalvik cache and reboot and see whether it will work.
EDIT: If the "RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.9_Radio_1.1204.103.14" is the right one for your phone, you can download it here

don't think the OP wants the complicated solution
Just let him boot the phone into fastboot, connect it to the computer and run the RUU from the computer.
This means if there is already a 1.28 RUU xxxxxxx which I haven't checked out

Yep... that's why I edited my post and give the link for the 1.28 RUU, just hope he mention the right RUU as I give him the link as what he requested.
I'm going to give the complicated solution a go because I would rather try and keep some of my files than delete everything. I tried to do the fastboot boot but it failed, so I tried fastboot flash recovery and I was successful. Will this still work?

Flashing official RUU will not delete everything on sdcard... I did it many times.
fastboot flash recovery will not work for that complicated way. Make sure you type it correctly:
fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img
not fastboot boot recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img
From what point in the bootloader do I run fastboot boot?
C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>fastboot boot recovery

You can't unless it's in a flashable zip format but I haven't seen anything of that sort, yet..
Just yesterday I helped DivinDuck with a very similar problem. The post is here.
---SNIP
If you batter drops below 30%, use the script provided in this post to recharge it.
-Copy your CWM recovery 5.8.4.0 image file to where your fastboot files are on your PC.
-Reboot your phone to bootloader by pressing vol down+power buttons.
-When the phone says fastboot on a white background, plug the USB cable in to your PC and phone. It should now say FASTBOOT USB
-From your PC, open a command prompt, go to the folder where you have fastboot files and recovery image and issue
fastboot flash recovery <name of CWM Recovery>.img
fastboot erase cache
Now when you reboot your phone and go to bootloader then into recovery you should see CWM 5.8.4.0 version installed.
--SNIP
You should somehow figure out when your phone is charging or not. After that when you get little more life to your battery in CWM recovery you can go to "mounts and storage", and there "mount usb storage". Then your computer should see your device, and you will able to put working rom in phones sdcard and flash it over. It worked for me atleast, I once have almost same problem what you have now.

Only 5.8.3.x and later support USB mount under recovery. His version is older.
The following command (also in the charging batch file) can also be used to get the battery status (charging, not charging etc..) from fastboot:

Wow dude THANK YOU!!
It worked, think it charged in charger cause i didnt get battery error now
So how do i flash a rom from here?
Im not willing to **** it up again xD
First, put the rom zip file in ur sd card, then flash its kernel in fastboot by doing this:
Fastboot erase cache
Press enter.
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Press Enter.
Fastboot erase cache.
Press enter.
Then go into recovrry, erase data, and preferably dalvik cache too, and then install the rom zip from sdcard
Then hit thanks
Im pretty sure the reason ur phone didnt boot is that u didnt flash the kernel

Also, when you relock you bootloader, fastboot commands won't work

I was trying to update my phone to the Maximus rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601543) from an AOKP JB ROM.
I succesfully followed the instructions to relock my phone, the flash the firmware, then unlock it again. Unfortunately I was foolish and didn't think to copy across the rom.zip before doing this. I tried restoring a Nandroid backup but was stuck in a bootloop. I also tried reflashing the previous AOKP Rom that I had on there. In this case it booted but I had no radio, no wifi, and importantly I couldn't mount over USB to copy across the new ROM. I'm guessing neither method works because of the new HBOOT?
I went to this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1609190 and it's clear that I have to flash an RUU through fastboot to get back to a working state. Unfortunately All the RUU links for JB Roms as listed on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376 seem to be dead so I can't download them. Similarly the links to older RUUs found here http://www.filefactory.com/f/e3e8b30e62a4a8aa/ all require a premium account because they are over the 500MB limit.
Can anyone tell me where I can please get an RUU to restore my phone to working order, or if there's another method available? Thankyou very much for your help.

Thankyou for the suggestion, but the problem with that method is that once again the ROM I want to flash has to be moved over to the virtal SD card of my phone. Since the ROM on it is currently not working I can't copy anything across to the SD card through the usual means. Is there a way I can copy it across using fastboot, as that is still working fine? I had a look at the fastboot help and there didn't seem to be any way. What I need is a ROM that can be flashed over fastboot, which I understand can be done with the stock RUUs?
I'm not panicking, I know that I will be able to get it back up and running, I just need a bit of help to get there.
Boot into bootloader and from there to recovery , mounts and storage - mount as USB ....and you have a working sd card to copy the rom.zip file to

Thankyou so much for that suggestion. That would really help. I'm sorry, I don't know what I did, but now if I try to go into recovery the recovery flashes breifly on screen and then it resets. I tried reflashing it, using the All In One toolkit and using Fastboot.exe. I also tried flashing both the CWM recovery and the TWRP recovery, neither of them worked.
Thankyou for your help again, I'm sorry but recovery was working before, I think all I did was flash a boot.img but could that break recovery? I even tried going through the whole relock, flash firmware.zip, unlock, flash recovery procedure to see if that would work but it didn't.
Do a fastboot command
Put the phone in bootloader / fastboot USB menu
Fastboot erase cache
Check if you can enter recovery after that

No you guys have any complete guides on how to unbrick htc one x ? im a bit confuse on those steps u told me
The link i gave you is a full guide to flash a custom rom.....start at page 1
Really all info is there !
You need to put the recovery.img in the fastboot folder on the pc....
Navigate to the folder and open a dosprompt there
Then do the command
Fastboot devices
If your serial pops up its good ....
Otherwise you need to install HTC sync and then uninstall HTC sync and leave the drivers .... And if that doesn't work you need the java SDK platform !
Connect your HTC One X to your USB cable and then to the PC, choose Disk Drive, next, copy and paste the CWM-SuperSU-v0.94.Zip file onto the root of the SD card for your HOX. Once that's on there, change the phones USB connection to charge only.

At what point are you now : it's bootlooping but you can acces the bootloader ?

Better look here then, there re more people with that what you have just described.
Hi all,
I think my friend and i bricked his phone last night.
Its the HTC one x and we used the Hasoon2000 method. I think the problem was the perm root part of the software said unable to connect to device.
I searched around and someone said to flash supersu and that should do it. However after flashing that we did a backup of the phone in clockwork recovery.
We then tried flashing the viperX rom which we did on another one X and worked fine, it got to 1% and restarted. It then stuck at the quietly brilliant page.
We can't get it to boot into recovery but can get it to go to the bootloader. We tried to do the fastboot command from the PC to erase fastboot cache but it couldnt connect to the device.
I have read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764421 and but it is about the AT&T version, what recovery image would i need?
Also how can i tell if it is hard bricked or soft bricked? As i'm worried it could be hard bricked cause i couldnt erase the fastboot cache.
Any help is appreciated, and sorry if this is answered somewhere else but i couldnt see an answer.
Bit more bootloader info:
Unlocked
S-On
Hboot 1.39.0000
If possible i'd like to help my friend finish rooting it but if its easier put it back to normal.
Again thanks if anyone can help me.
What does the bootloader say, EVITA or ENDEAVORU ?
It says endeavoru
Then stay away from the HTC one XL forum, its a different phone !!!
Do you have the HTC drivers installed and a folder on the pc with the fastboot files ?
Place these files in a folder like this
http://db.tt/ldx3qOOU
C:\fastboot\files i gave you
Then put the phone in the bootloader and open a command prompt inside the fastboot folder on the pc and type
Fastboot devices
If a serial comes up we are good to go !

Well we installed the HTC drivers with the Hasoon tool so yes. Just meeting my friend now so i'll put these files in a folder and try that straight away.
Thanks, will let you know shortly.

Just connected it to my laptop and the pc said fastboot drivers installed and made the noise of a device connecting and disconnecting.
Haven't tried what you said yet as it said battery is too low on the bootloader. I've now plugged it in a plug socket and have it on the htc quietly brilliant screen. I take it this should still charge it?

Is it possible for you to turn the phone off?
IF so it should charge a bit quicker that way
Also just to clarify, how did you try to install Viper X on your phone?
Hmm no, if its bootlooping then yes. Is the bootloader unkocked and do you have a custom recovery installed yet ?
In case you have a custom recovery installed put the phone in the recovery it will charge the batt in there .....
Otherwise put the phone in the bootloader and run this file from within the fastboot folder

It will continuously reboot the phone and charge it little by little, leave it like this for an hour or so.
No, if i go into bootloader and fastboot then power down it turns itself back on if its plugged in.

The bootloader says unlocked, and we had CWM recovery installed it no longer loads up, it just reboots itself.
I'm confused by what you mean, what command would i use to run that file from the fastboot folder and after doing that do you mean i should leave it charging from the laptop?
Link to image of the bootloader if this helps - http://imgbin.org/index.php?page=image&id=11217
Just connect the phone to the pc and put the phone in the bootloader then execute the .bat file from the fastboot folder (download it and move it in there)
It should start rebooting the phone over and over again.
Edit : I see fastboot usb in the bootloader that's good ! :thumbup:
We need to get the batt charged so we can reflash the recovery, that will probably solve it all.

Ok this is working. It doesn't say about low battery anymore on the bootloader. But ill leave it charging for a bit. What is my next step?
Next step is to reflash the recovery, download this one
http://db.tt/Krlm4dPs
Rename it to recovery.img and Copy the file in the fastboot folder. Put the phone in the bootloader again and flash the recovery
All these commands are executed from the command prompt inside the fastboot folder.
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
Then enter the recovery by pressing hboot one time (confirm with powerbutton) then press recovery
Ignore me Mr Hoffs beat me to it

YES! That has worked, we are in recovery. What can i do now? Should i try flashing ViperX or is the phone not permarooted?
Last time i tried to do permroot with the Hasoon2000 tool. That didnt work and i just flashed superSU, i think i must be missing something.
Thanks so much for your help!
If you do this, you will be good. Maybe you van skip some steps because you already did them before but I mention them anyway
Download the viper x JB rom, open it with an unpack program and copy the boot.img and place it in the fastboot folder. Copy the rom.zip to the phone (mount as usb drive in the mounts & storage part of the recovery)
Now put the phone back in the bootloader and flash the boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot img
Fastboot erase cache
Enter the recovery again and do a full wipe , also wipe the dalvik cache under the advanced tab. Then install the rom.zip with the
Install zip from sdcard menu !
Install the viper and choose in the aroma installer of the rom FULL WIPE and the question you get about the custom kernel you answer with NO !
Don't worry about root, the rom is standard rooted
Good to go mate
