DESPERATE need help!! one x recovery failure??

so i had just htc dev unocked my one x, now i was using hasoons tool, and when i tried to flash a recovery in fastboot with commands, everything in the prompt said okay.. flashed successful and so on, and the bar on the top right hand side of my phone flickered as if to load, but didint. now when i go to recovery mode, it gives me the splash screen with some red letter **** about distrabution, then reboots. ive tried flashing every possible recovery for the one x, including stock, and seems to do nothing, help??
pic is the screen rite b4 reboot (thats what i get when i reboot into recovery)

EDIT:: now im stuck at the screen in the picture, will not boot into anything else, will not be recognized by adb. PLEASE HELP!!!!
EDIT EDIT: i can power off, and get back into fast boot with volume off, but im almost asuming i just have no recovery..... and it will NOT! boot into the phone no matter what, only booting into that screen... what the **** do i do lol this is kind of a panic now

Have you tried reflashing stock recovery? Also shouldn't you be in the AT&T One X forum unless of course you have the international version of the One X.

I have tried the stock recovery, but now its in fastboot and won't get recognized by adb on my pc as it did. It just boot loops now at that screen and won't get recognized. And this isn't at. &t

You're suppose to flash stock recovery in fastboot.

I know, I tried when it was getting recognized, now I can't even pick it up with adb

so its telling me to flash the stock RUU, but i cant use adb commands it wont recognize in fastboot, the computer dings when i plug it in, but adb devices comes up with nothing, i tried every usb port on my pc and everything

First of all ADB only works in RECOVERY mode not directly in bootloader. So do the following steps & instal custom rom (Any1 u like).
1. You need recovery.img in your fastboot directory
2. Go into bootloader and connect phone
3. Then use: "fastboot boot recovery.img" (thus booting your image from pc and not the installed recovery).
4. When in recovery, you can use the adb commands.
5. You can try with "adb devices" which should show you serial of phone.
6. command: adb push rom_rom.zip /sdcard
credits to broncogr for finding that adb works if you use fastboot boot command and to Jotha for helping me out!

[Q] Stuck on Yellow Triangle Without Recovery Option (Was: Is it bricked?) [Fixed]

I rooted and installed an ICS ROM several months back on my Fire. One morning the wife brings it in and says my son got it stuck in some weird mode. Turns out it is stuck on the TWRP yellow triangle and does not seem to be able to get into recovery mode. I have done that several times before so I am pretty confident I am not messing that up. Just the power button never turns orange and eventually the device just turns off. My computer see the USB device but ADB does not. I did `android update adb` and then added '0x1949' to '~/.android/adb_usb.ini'. Do I have any options left or is it bricked?
Thank you to anyone who takes the time to read this. Especially to any who can reply with suggestions.

Download TWRP and FFF1.4

ADB will not work because you're in fastboot mode. Use fastboot commands to install the new TWRP and change the bootmode.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/recovery.img
fastboot oem idme bootmode 5001
Hold the power button to perform a hard shutdown and restart the device. You should then be able to launch recovery using the power button. If not, you'll have to flash the bootloader as well. If this is the case, be extremely careful you don't pull the USB cable during the flash or you will really brick your device.
Also, it is very important to know that the version of FFF you'll download comes in a .zip format to be flashed in recovery. Don not flash the .zip file directly to your bootloader partition. Instead, unzip it and find the "fff-u-boot_v1.4.bin" located in the cache folder and flash it.
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader /path/to/fff-u-boot_v1.4.bin
fastboot reboot
If you were able to access recovery just by reinstalling it with the first command, push the FFF1.4.zip file to your sdcard and flash it in recovery. Just remember not to wipe anything before installation. That will help you to fix your bootmode problems a lot easier in the future by holding the power button untill the boot options appear at the bottom.

adb/fastboot and constantly rebooting

I was trying to look what was installed on a friend's HTC Desire, so I used "adb reboot bootloader", and only used "fastboot devices" to make sure it sees the smartphone. I left it connected for some time while I was looking for some things related to installing a custom firmware and it got hot. I have a HTC Hero and I had it gone hotter and nothing happened, but after I restarted this HTC Desire it kept restarting continously after it played the HTC animation. I can still get into the bootloader/recovery, but that's kind about it, nothing more. Should I just wait for it to cool down, or I might just bricked it?
<<Update>>
It's been more than 8 hours and the smartphone still does this. The thing is the volume buttons are broken, I only have fastboot control over it. The only solution that came to my mind was to flash it with a Touch ROM, but I can't find a fastboot command to restart directly into recovery, I can only get into the bootloader/fastboot. Does anybody have an idea on how to get directly to recovery from fastboot?

Well, in fasboot you select "bootloader", then recovery.

I can't do that because the volume buttons are broken, so I can't select anything.

Download the 4ext recovery.img on your PC. Then boot the phone into fastboot and run the following command:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img

It worked, now the phone it's fully functional (except the volume buttons of course) .
I used the following steps:
1. fastboot boot recovery.img
2. wipe both types of data
3. went to advanced menu and used the other type of wipe (dalvanic or something).
Thanks .

[FIXED] I have no recovery after fimware update and can't connect fastboot!

Hey. I was using a 5.0.1 GPE Rom on my M8 and decided to update both the firmware and the rom to 5.1
I Backed everything up and decided to, as usual, use adb to sideload the firmware to the phone. I did and everything went as expected. After I finished I rebooted to android. I get NFC service stopped working, System UI stopped working and I can't interact with the phone. My thought, well let's go to the recovery and flash a rom I have in my external SD card. No recovery to be found just a android guy belly up with a red ! sign on his belly.
So I thought, I lost my recovery due to the firmware flash, I had happened before, So i went online found a TWRP recovery and went to flash it. Reboot to fastboot USB mode, but then in adb I cannot see the device at all. "adb devices" shows and empty list. I tried my windows 7 laptop to the same result.
Can anyone PLEASE PLEASE help me, I'm kinda freaking out at this point and am running out of options

1. What phone model? What version of firmware 5.0.2 or 6.0.1?

Yes, same this with me. 6.0. I tried reset, but reset is not working. So I unlocked device , installed twrp, but twrp sometimes starts and only for few seconds. Mostly phone is either stuck in logo, or just shuts down after boot vibration. No luck in recovery. My phone crashed suddenly and got into this situation.

You have to register.
For Windows: Install HTC drivers, HTC Sync Manager(optional), fastboot, adb.
For linux: Install android-tools
Put phone into Hboot -> Fastboot.
Connect to PC and from cmd/terminal you have to execute commands as told by HTC site.
> fastboot oem get_identifier_token
This will give you a string , copy paste from '<<Identifier Token start>>' to '<<Token End>>' , only this column, no prefix.
Paste this into website. There will be text box while following steps.
You will get a file in email attachment. It will be something like this 'Unlock_code.bin'
And also the link to further steps will be provided.
> fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
You will get option on phone screen. 'Yes' 'No'. Use volume button and select Yes.
and its done.
It hardly takes a minute

Yes it happens sometimes.
Make sure the recovery step was complete. For win: The .exe cmd should exit on clicking enter or automatic, till then don't remove the phone.
Try some combinations:
- turn phone OFF from Hboot then start recovery
- if screen shows 'entering recovery' let it be , wait for reboot or shutdown
- try alternative options of 'reset' and 'recovery' both will get you to twrp
- remove sdcard then try
- check charging
- don't try if overheating, let the phone be in normal temperature.
I had similar problem, but trying combos started twrp.
The mistake I did was to wipe everything. Don't do that, try to wipe cache, the first default option provided by twrp and start phone. (no sdcard/sim)
I was able to install Tomal's Discovery ROM but after some time phone again rebooted and stuck in loop.
For any restore/flash use internal memory. SDcard failed to work for me ( i tried many different sdcards).
