[Q] Disaster recovery HTC One X

Hi there,
Something went wrong with my HTC One X. Now, I cannot get past the HTC splash screen.
I can get into fastboot and also in recovery (latest clockwordk recovery). What I can't do, is connect my phone to the Windows 7 computer to copy the ROM to the SD card.
Fastboot works fine and reconizes my divice, but I cannot see it as storage on my pc. The USB driver from the android sdk is installed.
What can I do? I Googled, but I just cannot find anything helpful

It would seem your only option is to flash back to stock and then reroot.
Boot into fastboot and flash the stock recovery then relock the bootloader. After that download the RUU, boot into fastboot again and run it.
Once you are back up and running then unlock the bootloader again, flash Clockwork and flash your desired rom.

Thanks

Thank you!
After doing some research, I follewed the steps below and got it working again!
Flash original bootloader
forum_DOT_xda-developers_DOT_com/showthread.php?t=1594819 (use 1.28 stock recovery link)
Fastboot USB:
* fastboot flash recovery endeavoru_recovery_signed.img
* power down
Relock bootloader
forum_DOT_xda-developers_DOT_com/showthread.php?t=1578546
Fastboot USB:
* fastboot oem lock
The screen sais "Relocked"
* Power down
Flash RUU
forum_DOT_xda-developers_DOT_com/showthread.php?t=1543604 (first link)
Fastboot USB:
* Execute RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.9_Radio_1.1204.103.14_release_256469_signed.exe
(this might take a while)
When finished, the phone will restart - if not, restart manually
When started, the phone will update firmware and reboot (or reboot manually)
Thanks!

Is it possible that I can do this but flash the optus firmware instead of the European? firmware and is the recovery the same on optus as well?

[TUT] Re-flash stock ROM (RUU) after bricking a rooted device (for noobs)

Before you start, you will need to set up your computer to properly recognize the phone. You probably did this when rooting originally, but just in case... Install SDK tools for Android, Java runtime, and HTC Sync.
About HTC Sync: The only reason you need HTC Sync installed is for the USB drivers that come with it. But the program itself has been known to cause conflicts. Make sure that HTC Sync is not running in the background by opening Task Manager in Windows and killing it if you find it lurking in there.
Here we go:
1. Download the correct RUU (ROM Update Utility) for your device from androidfiles.org. Make sure you download a Primo_C RUU for a CDMA device (no sim card) or a Primo_U RUU for a GSM device (uses a sim card)!! Also make sure you get the correct RUU for your carrier.
2. Charge the battery above 50% or for at least one hour. If the battery dies during the flashing process, you could hard brick the phone!
3. Run the RUU until the wizard comes up. While the RUU wizard is open, find the temporary folder it created. (Open Explorer in Windows and type %temp% in the navigation bar.) There will be two folders with long encrypted names. In one of them you will find ROM.zip. Open it with 7zip and extract recovery.img or recovery_signed.img. Put it in the location were you've installed Android SDK tools. This is the stock HTC Recovery and it is needed to run the RUU.
4. Boot the phone into bootloader (power off, hold down volume and press power) and highlight FASTBOOT using the volume rocker and pressing power. Then connect the USB cable. You should see FASTBOOT USB.
5. Open a command prompt in Windows and navigate to the folder where you installed Android SDK tools. Flash the stock recovery extracted in step 3 above using the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
or
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
6. Relock the bootloader using the following command:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
7. Re-run the RUU. It will restore the device to it's original condition, locked (though *** RELOCKED ***) and unrooted.
Once the install is done you'll have unlock the bootloader again using the token you already have from the first time, reflash CWM Recovery and re-root. All this will be 10x easier than the first time.
If you do re-root your phone, be 100% you backup the stock ROM in ClockworkMod Recovery before making changes!

Hi
Thanks for that perfect decsription exactly when I needed it
I just had a weired effect with my new windows 7 laptop that I want to share.
I installed the USB drivers and "fastboot devices" showed my HTC fine
but even flashing the stock recovery image was not working.
So it was stucking in the "Sending" part and never continued.
I then moved to my old laptop with Vista did exactly the same things
and there it worked without problems.
I disabled virus scanner, checked for htsync and used the original USB cable
without success.
But now I know why I normally never touch Windows and only
work on linux

Use the correct RUU package for your device

Another way of saying it is that you downloaded the wrong RUU for your device.

i tried installing the drivers again but that doesnt help either

"Waiting for Device" at fastboot usually related to bootloader driver. You need Android USB Driver

Hi folks,
I've bought my One V in late may and I had 2.08 ROM.
Now I've tested some roms and I wanted to revert back to stock rom.
I've downloaded RUU_PRIMO_U_ICS_40A_HTC_Europe_2.08.401.2_Radio_20.72.30.0833U_3831.17.00.18_M_release_263376_signed, and got recovery_signed and boot_signed images. Then I've went to fastboot, did flash recovery and boot partitions, and oem locked bootloader. Afterwards I booted my phone and entered PIN. Then I fired up RUU*.exe file, and I have 155 error. What the heck? Something I missed?
greetings!

run the ruu in hboot..

Flashing RUU to revert to stock
- you must have the correct RUU for your device.
- if you are not sure, download CID Getter from Play Store and run it, it will show your CID.
- with your CID, you may be able to find a correct RUU for your device
then (even though some people may not agree with this, but this will bring no harm and it is noob-proof) do this:
1- flash a stock recovery.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
2- flash a stock boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
3- re-lock bootloader
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
4- flash RUU
NOTE: There is no boot/reboot and enter pin in between.

[Q] Weird boot problem

Hello,
i got this weird problem when i tried to install clockworkmod from here: knowyourmobile(dot)com/smartphones/htc/onex/onexuserguides/1419609/how_to_root_your_htc_one_x.html
My bootloader is unlocked.I downloaded the file end ran the script.When everything finished my phone got stuck in the boot screen.I tried to erase chase or install stock kernel and recovery (using all ine one tool from this site)but nothing solved it.The only thing that i havent tried yet is to flash a boot.img because i cant find one (i got the phone from europe(paris) and i have the jelly bean update and i cant find the stock boot.img).Any solutions?
Thanks in advance!

If you flash a rom you can find the boot.img inside the rom.zip file ! Flash the boot.img with fastboot commands and do a wipe in recovery and install the rom.zip file from sd card !
And its not a weird boot problem, it's a common user mistake that is done by many....many people
Ow and a kernel = boot.img

Thanks for the reply,Is there another way?Because i dont want to use a custom ROM.I just rooted it in order to install some apps that require root.I said its weird because i flashed the kernel and the problem stays

Do you have a custom recovery at the moment ? And did u do a nandroid backup of the stock rom ?
I think it's weird that you first say that you flashed the kernel and then you say you can't find the boot.img.......

Well i didnt know that kernel=boot.img and i dont know if the all ine one xda program puts the right program for jb.I didnt backup anything,I have clockworkmod recovery

Do you know fastboot and the commands ?
Fastboot oem readcid
and
Fastboot getvar version-main
And post these results here !

I will try it.THis doesnt format anything,right>?

Nope....
You have to enter the recovery from the bootloader - choose hboot and then recovery....if it enters check which version you have (cwm 5.8.4.0 ?)
From there you can go to mounts & storage and then choose at the bottom mount as USB drive
Then you can at least copy everything from the sd to a safe place. I think that the internal data is going to be lost ! Like messages and apps .... Everything that is stored in the cloud is safe anyway

cid:htc__203 OKAY
version-main:3.14.401.27

You can get the ruu with the same number on www.htcruu.com and put the phone in bootloader/fastboot USB
Relock the bootloader with
Fastboot oem lock
And run the ruu.exe with admin rights ...it will put the phone back to 100% stock
This is the one you need
http://www.htcruu.com/download.php?...Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_298897_signed.exe

Nice!Now to reunlock the bootloader i will do the same things i did the first time or there is a command for that?

Yes if you still have the unlock token.bin file you can unlock the bootloader with a fastboot command, the correct command slipped my mind at the moment !
Otherwise you can to the htcdev site again and unlock it there

fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin

You have a custom recovery now ? Put the phone in there and it will charge the battery
Edit :
Steps :
1: Charge the battery in the recovery
2: then flash the boot.img from the xm kernel
3: install the xm.zip in the recovery
4: reboot (should boot correct now)
5: backup what you need including the sdcard content
6: then put the phone in the bootloader and relock the bootloader
Fastboot oem lock
7: keep the phone in the bootloader and run this ruu with admin rights
Right click the ruu and select "run as administrator"

Your phone is not stock anymore. This ruu will flash it all back to stock, factory settings. Only with a ruu you need to relock the bootloader but you can unlock it again after updating. If you wish you can also go back to stock with a nandroid backup. Then you don't have to relock the bootloader but its a bit more work

hi again . sorry but with recovery method i can't charge my phone , , still there is battrey level is too low error on my fastboot and my phone still hanging on first HTC logo , , please help me , now i just want to return my phone back , i even can't put anything on my phone memory because when i try mount USB storge in recovery it says , E:can't finde correct volume for please heeeelp

Which Cwm recovery version do you have installed. I think you have an old one ?!
I have another way to charge the phone.
Put the phone in the bootloader and double click the next file from within the fastboot folder !
https://www.dropbox.com/s/aaah8gqz8j024xz/Batt script.bat
It should reboot the phone continuesly and charge it little by little, leave it for 45 minutes and flash this recovery

I have same issue here

Only solution I have will void your warranty so if you don't have other option do it:
Unlock bootloader, flash cwm or twrp recovery and install stock rom
P.S.
Let me know if you want detailed instructions

@josko545, Yes please. If you can write it.

Same problem here ! I want the instructions and the rom pls

If this is regarding HTC Desire 300 301e you have my attention.

Hi, first I want to say that I am really sorry because I am late but if I can still help here it goes:
1. You need to visit HTC desire 300 rooting guide here on xda(it is easy to find)
2. Download all requrements from that page to your computer.
3. Now you have to unlock your bootloader(wipes data):
-to unlock first visit htcdev and create account with real email
-select to unlock bl and your device
-follow the guide on htcdev page (in short you will have to connect your device with usb and get device identifier token which you submit to htcdev page, after that they generate unlock code and sent it your mail finally you flash unlock code to device and confirm that you want to unlock)
4. Now with unlocked bootloader you can install custom recovery (img file is on rooting page)
5. To install recovery just get device to fastboot, open command prompt in windows and write this command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
(assuming recovery.img is in same file with fastboot and adb)
6. Now you should have installed clockwork mode(custom recovery) and unlocked bootloader now you just have to flash stock rom.
7. Just find any HTC desire 300 stock rom on xda (maybe russian deodexed) and download it to sd card of your phone
8. Now enter recovery (power down-->volume down+power button-->bootloader-->recovery)
9. You should see recovery screen
10. Do all wipes (factory reset and wipe dalvik cache)
11. Format system
12. Select to install zip from sd card
13. Search for rom you downloaded earlier and flash it.
14. Reboot system and everything should be fine (it maybe need more time for first boot).
If you stuck on any step feel free to ask, hopefully it won't take me half year to answer, once again I am really sorry about that.
