Hi
I was trying to update my Sprint Hero to the new Zero Hero ROM. I had the Nandroid system install and when I tried to flash my Zero zip file, I kept getting the Verification failed message.
In trying to do stuff to try to understand it, I pulled the USB cord from my phone and now when I start my computer I only see the white HTC screen and nothing else.
I can get fastboot to work on the phone, but when I try to recover from the recovery.img file, it doesnt work. From what Ive understood its not working because I have S-OFF.
I really have no clue what to do at this point and would love if someone can please take the time out to write some detailed instructions of how to get back to the point of having the Nandroid screen so I can atleast get my phone started .
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
So now I can get into the recovery menu, but installing the stock rom is not working...
what error you getting when trying to install stock Rom?

Hi everyone. I have been looking everywhere i can and i cannot find any existing threads explaining how to fix this.
First off I am a little bit of a noob when it comes to rooting. I rooted my phone using a one-click method yesterday and was flashing roms fine. I couldnt find anything i liked last night so i restored the backup i made. This morning i was going to flash CM9. My phone was fine this morning. I turned off my phone and went into fastboot mode. When i went to recovery it came right back into fastboot mode saying "no boot or recovery image". No matter how i turn the phone on it goes to fastboot mode. Also, i can't seem to get my computer to recognize my phone no matter what i try. I have pulled the battery and left it out for 30 minutes and still nothing.
What am i missing.
Thank you in advance for any help.
I had a similar situation, don't get stressed, basically u'll have to force the phone into recovery, delete all the files in regards to android on ur pc, restart it, same for the phone, I don't exactly remember where it is but I think is around here on the forums at XDA that explain how to force the Nexus to be recognized by Windows again, or ;look it up on Google, lessons learned!!!
Also check the posts about Nexus being stuck on Boot and similar.

Since your in fast boot try to go to recovery. From recovery try to delete data and cache. Then try to reflash your rom. Chances are if it will not work. Maybe the file you downloaded is corrupted and u need to download it again.
PS don't forget to do a nand backup before flashing any rom or update.

Was the phone previously rooted with ClockWorkMod Recovery installed?
What was the last thing you did on the phone before it got to this state?
What guide did you follow to NVFlash back to stock?
Just in case i dont get back to this thread until tommrow, Try following This guide.
IMMEDIATELY after following that guide, flash This ROM.
Boot into that rom, and after its all booted up, you can shut down.
Now you should be able to go into recovery and flash any ROM you want.
DO NOT SKIP ANY STEPS!!!! if you don't flash the OTA Rom Immediately after following the first guide, you will not be able to access your internal sd card.
Hey thanks my dude it worked and I am back online.

when you plug in your phone, dont let windows choose the drivers, click the button that says you will choose what driver to use, then point it to the ENTIRE folder with the APX driver in it.

My phone went dead after I wiped the cache through ROM Manager. I was trying to install CyanogenMod & this happened.
Now phone not going into Download mode, recovery mode. Nothing is working, just dead.
Someone help me..
Hi. This is the first time I've tried to install custom rom's on my phone so bear with me. I followed a post (since I can't post links yet just google: CyanogenMod 9 (CM9) for HTC One X is Here. It's the first link) detailing how to install CM9 on the OneX. Everything worked up until step 16 where you have to boot into recovery mode. When I select recovery mode from the bootloader, the phone just tries to restart and gets stuck at the HTC loading screen with a message underneath saying that this ROM is not official etc.
Is there an easy way to try and fix this and make it work properly? I've tried erasing the fastboot cache and that didn't make a difference. At this point I don't really care if I have to erase everything and just go back to what I had before. The phone doesn't show up as a drive on the PC when I plug it in.
Any help would be great!
SOLUTION: Ok this is what I did to get it working again. My phone is on Rogers so I had to download this RUU and then follow these steps to flash the RUU onto the phone. Pretty simple actually.
Well, I can tell you that the ROM you were trying to flash was not for the S4 variant of the HTC One X, the ROM you saw was for the international Tegra 3 chip which is VERY different. I would attempt to flash an RUU from the At&T HOX thread if that is possible. Sorry if I can't be of any more help, that's all I've got.
I just had this exact same problem on mine. Well I didn't try to install a full rom, but accidently tried to apply the mod where you remove the menu bar and remap the keys that was for the HTC One X (Internation/Tegra3) to my HTC One X (AT&T) and what happened was it would freeze at the HTC One Beats Audio screen and not do anything. Tried going to Recovery as well and nothing. So I thought. What I had to do was unplug my phone from USB, hold down power for about 7 seconds until screen goes black, immediately after screen goes black, release power button and start to hold down volume down button, this should get you to the Recovery menu. From here what you will need to do is go into FlashBoot, and then from ur PC (or mac... hopefully PC though) you need to relock your BootLoader, and get stock recovery (if you changed it). After this reboot and then go back into Recovery, FastBoot, and connect to PC. Now download the AT&T RUU (i used the newest, 1.85) and run through those steps. After this is finished phone should boot fine and your expensive device is saved.
Oh by the way, I'm an evolving Noob. Just started to do anything ...interesting... with my phone today, crap went down, and using these steps I was able to fix it, so if I am off on some of my steps or unclear, just comment please and I'll try and correct myself or giver farther details on what I did.
-Good Luck
Thanks for the replies but I think my situation is further complicated by the fact that my phone is a Rogers phone. I know the RUU is 1.73.631.1 but I don't know if a stock recovery is available for Rogers yet. It sounds like all I have to do is find the correct RUU and flash it to the phone.
TrueLandon, you said after you held the power button down for 7 seconds you could put the phone into recovery mode. Would that be the same thing as the bootloader menu (where you can select fastboot, factory reset etc)?

Yes, sorry if I were unclear, still trying to learn the lingo and technical terms , and yea, that's what you would need then is the RUU for Rogers, but I think the other steps should work for you.
I'll PM you a link to 1.73 RUU for Rogers

The facepalm is significant and this makes me wish HTC forced carriers to label the S4 One X as the One XL.
If your bootloader was unlocked, lock the bootloader and run the RUU from fastboot.
Thanks for the replies guys. Truelandon sent me the RUU that I need for my phone but there's no .exe file in it. I was just wondering if I can somehow use these files and flash my phone with this RUU. Most of the files that I ended up downloading are disk image files.
Addition to the issue
I flashed a cm9 rom on my hox (international version). Its working fine but the only issue is that i want to install black and cyan theme to it and when i try to flash it and the moment i hit recovery in boot loader my phone restarts and comes back normal.so i can't enter cwm to flash the theme.

Wrong forum you have the international one x the is the one xl forum so we can't really help your phone has completely different partitions.
The only thing I would suggest is to reflash your cwm and see if it helps.

Ok guys, new to the forums but this problem has had me fully occupied for the last 6 hours and I feel like I have tried everything. I had cm9 alpha 12, and went to flash TrickDroid v5.0, something happened and I'm currently stuck in some wierd bootloop/soft brick. I had access to CWM but my SD card wouldn't mount and my adb push attempts didn't do anything, for reasons I don't know why. My phone would start up into the wierd trickdroid bootup and last for like 30 minutes. I tried the solution of another thread on how to fix a bootloop/ softbrick, but now I dont have any CWM access and I can only access the bootloader or the endless bootup screen. I tried using the all in one tool to flash the CWM again but it just restarts it and puts it back into the bootup, and when i restart to go to bootloader to acess the recovery, it goes back to bootup. Every solution I try makes my problem worse, and to top it off I cant turn my phone off and keep it off because it will just start back up. Thanks.
Edit: Problem fixed. Downloaded the original all in 1 tool for htc one s, plugged phone into comp went to fastboot and with the tool flashed the phones stock recovery. I reset to factory defaults and cleared storage with it from the bootloader. After that, I flashed clockwork mod recovery again and my SD card was able to be mounted and accepted files from my adb push, and I reflashed cyanogenmod. Wuzzah!

lol, meant to "quote" not "thanks".
Can you fastboot a new recovery?
Did you do a full wipe coming from CM9 to TrickDroid
Well I can't access the phone from usb on my computer (still takes charge though), so I don't think I can flash a recovery thru fastboot (I'm not too experienced though). From cm9, I wiped all and flashed trickdroid + tweak set, then it just stat their at home screen. CMW being lost occurred later.
Im in the same situation rght now. I have trickdroid and I went into my tweaks to set them back to their original setup...so removing all of the options I chose before when I used the tweaks for the first time. When I rebooted my phone it just hangs on the HTC screen. I can get into recovery and I tried reinstalling trickdroid but its still getting stuck. Not sure what to do at this point. I don't think I can put a recovery file on this since I can't connect it to my computer.
Hopefully someone can help us.
But the thing is I can't access recovery. I try to flash it again with the all in 1 tool and it won't work. It says it went through, but accessing it doesn't work.
If its recognised by USB when plugged in computer just run an ruu that's my solution all The time lol

Ok i somehow managed to get TWR on my phone, but still unable to mount the SD. How do I run the RUU? I downloaded it, but the instructions are flawed I think
Connect with USB to.computer go into faatboot USB then run ruu on pc
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
Well I thought the RUU was going to work, but it just stops at the HTC and gives me an error saying I can't. What now?
Ok currently, I relocked my bootloader in an attempt to do the RUU, but I get a 155 Unknown Error up doing such, using the TMOUS 1.53 ruu... other places I have seen say something about returning to the stock img etc, but I'm quite stuck. Any advice appreciated
htc one s stuck in bootloop almost unresponsive
hey guys, got a brain teaser for you.
i have a tmobile htc one s, unlocked, rooted using all in one htc tool, been at it for two days now. im stuck on the boot screen showing its unlocked, i used to be able to get into the boot loader screen but now it seems ive dead ended. ill hold any combination of power and vol up/down, the keys flash for 10 sec and the screen flashes once, i let go and it reboots, keeps that htc screen, after 20-30 sec goes black. my pc doings like it detects a device but i cant locate it. ive used adb and the htc all in one unlock tool trying to get any kind of os to launch.
Shortly before this i was able to go into the boot loader, clear and master reset the files and cache, and search for the rom zip, thus never allowing me to flash. on a journey to place this in the phone through various combinations of the all in one, adb push, and everything else i found on youtube, countless forum posts, i seem to be in a deeper hole now.
I ultimately want to end with a cm10 nightly on my tmo htc one s. I have never done this to a phone without a sd card. i come to this community humbly seeking any and all advice. thank you.
