I wanted to flash LeeDroid's rom. After I flashed the boot image I realized that I haven't put the rom into the root of the phone's storage! silly me. I tried rebooting the system but it won't boot. Then I tried the unbrick methods on the forum but found no luck. At last I tried relocking it and restore it using RUU but it still won't work! It is saying that I got the wrong version of RUU, but where can i find the RUU for 1.28? Hope someone can help!!

What country are you in, which network are you on and did you buy your phone sim free?
If you go into fastboot mode and then boot into CWM using the command:
fastboot boot <CWM img file>.img
You'll then be able to use adb to push the rom zip onto your device which you can then flash with CWM.
If the RUU says you have the wrong version you probably have the RUU for another region/carrier.
It's pretty much impossible to permanently brick the one x (without s-off) so don't worry, you'll get it working eventually.
Thanks man. I am in Hong Kong and i am pretty sure it is sim free. after I tried running the RUU i have relocked the bootloader. for some reason I can't even get into recovery right now! When I try the RUU it saids the image version is 1.28.708.10 and I get error140

You can't install the 1.26 RUU after you've updated hboot with the 1.28 OTA.
Try installing this RUU: http://hoxroms.serveftp.com/RUU_END...Radio_1.1204.103.14_release_257077_signed.exe, it's the same region but a newer version.
Flash the stock 1.28 recovery image and relock your bootloader before trying to install the RUU.
The 1.28 recovery image can be found here: http://hoxroms.serveftp.com/Asia_1.28_RUU/recovery_signed.img

Thanks so much!!
but i have already relocked the bootloader without flashing the recovery image ... would that make a difference?
If the RUU runs successfully then don't worry about it, if it throws another error then flash the stock recovery and try again.

can i how to install stock rom but from different region?
mine is asia and i want to instal the middle east stock rom but when i tried the installation was aborted due to errors
any help coz am new with the HOX (second day)
its an awesome device
You can't without S-OFF
and as i understood there is no S-OFF till now,right?
unlock the bootloader and flash it should work i think extract the kernel from the file and flash it seperatly from fastboot.
That is correct
what is kernel? how can i find it?

Doesn't work. Without S-OFF you CANNOT flash another stock ROM
You can flash custom ROMs, though, with an unlocked bootloader
I've rooted my htc desire 820u(Indian Dual sim) running on Lollipop 5.0
Then I found MIUI 7 ROM in XDA site. So I tried to flash it after wiping all the data-system-cache-internal storage and it didn't go well and ended up with boot failure. But before doing so, I backed up all the data using TWRP (Boot-System-Data). So when i tried to restore the data, the process is finished successfully.
But when the phone is rebooted I got several error messages like "system ui crashed", "htc dot view crash" "package installer help crash". And notification bar and soft toggle keys are gone. Nothing is accessible now. I tried recovering the same 3-4 times. But the same happened every time. What should I do now?
PLEASE HELP ME.
Try to flash the Ota again. And than restore your backup. You will find the Ota zip in the development section. Dont try to flash KK over Lollipop. You cant downgrade.
Or try a factory reset after restoring, maybe it helps.

hi
Are you S-OFF ?
Are you sure about the ota is for your CID ?
Flashed it using RUU mode ( HTC Silver logo ) or just using fastboot only in bootloader ?

Hey dont worry. If you are having locked bootloader, let it be.
Follow your original thread,

I hope this will work for you.
Is it possible to have a working phone without a recovery installed ?
Unlocked bootloader, flashed twrp 3.0.1.0, phone wouldn't boot into recovery.
Relocked bootloader cause phone is s-on, ran 401 ruu but can't get into stock recovery but otherwise phone works ok
:banghead:
There is always a recovery installed. Either the stock one or the custom one. What does it do when you go to the recovery?

Just fyi, but I'm pretty sure you can flash RUU in RUU mode with bootloader unlocked.
Phone works fine without recovery, but you can't take an ota, flash roms (custom recovery) or wipe data/cache.
I'd unlock again, and flash either stock recovery, run the RUU again, or flash TWRP 3.0.2-2. Why were you using such an old version in the first place? That's likely the cause of your issue in getting the phone to boot to TWRP.

With s-on you need to relock the bootloader to use official signed ruu files. When he flashed the ruu he could be seeing the exclamation mark that is normal as a warning before entering the stock recovery for which you need to push a volume and power button combo (don't know them heads up)
A possibility is to clear the cache and try to enter again (as this was a thingy on older HTC devices) or indeed as suggested at least to use the latest twrp available

It doesn't get as far as red exclamation mark, that's what I was waiting for. I'll try the newer version of twrp tomorrow after I've unlocked bootloader again. Do you think the same unlock code will work again?

Yes i think it does work again. But that's a try and find out. There is always the possibility i could be wrong.
Edit :
This is why i love s-off....no more relocking / unlocking the BL with also an increased chance of bricks. The BL isn't made to be relocked and unlocked over and over.

Sorry, but I believe this is misinformation, possibly residual to older HTC devices. I've heard this going back to the M7.
You need to be s-off to flash in download mode, but s-on can flash signed firmware and ruu's in RUU mode. I'm s-off so I can't test at the moment, but I'm about 99% that my information is correct.
S-on, you can only flash same or newer, though. You can't flash older firmware.
See post 19 here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/how-to/unlocked-official-ruu-t3378540/page2
I'm 100% that you can flash signed firmware package in ruu mode with bootloader unlocked and s-on.

That's new to me. Hopefully it isn't just tied to the developers edition then.

I'll bare that in mind, will unlock tomorrow again and try newer twrp. Only reason I relocked was to run ruu to get phone running again.

Where can I find 3.0.2.2, can only see 3.0.2.0 on twrp site?
Cheers
Edit.... Found it. ?
@jollywhitefoot
I've got stock recovery back on phone. Can you think of any reason, other than old version, as to why twrp wouldn't boot after flashing it ?
Will try again tomorrow.

I'm not exactly sure, but up until 3.0.2.2 Captain Throwback didn't even have the device and was working blind. I know he was trying different things to make it compatible with different variants, too, so in my mind that was a test build. I'm not sure why they have it on the downloads page. For me, I always download it from the download section of the twrp thread.
I delete my recovery img by mistake
info to know:
Bootloader: Locked
Security: S-On
OEM : On
Ver. : 1.95.401.4
can't Boot to android
Any Idea to solve this problem
and i guess if you have the RUU File it will fixed
I contact with the HTC they wont give me the RUU
thank you
best rgards
easiest way is to unlock BL, flash custom recovery and flash a custom ROM.
or check @LlabTooFeR ruu flashing services here. Hope they have RUU for your carrier/Region.
I don't even know how you would delete your recovery while being s-on and locked.
If that really is your problem then unlocking your bootloader and flashing TWRP should fix it.
can't do unlock bootloader cuz oem lock: on
