I never thought it'd happen to me..
Anyways.
I'm on Virgin Mobile in Canada, just recently unlocked my bootloader and rooted.
The process was bumpy but ultimately successful..ish.
I couldn't actually flash any roms. Not sure if it was because of the bumpy root process,
but every rom would just bootloop and I'd have to restore and deal with HTC Sense.
Great.
I had downloaded a Liquid [somethingorother] ROM from my PC and flashed it, with blind hope.
It was looping, as I half-expected.
I had this crazy idea that my roms were looping because I had neglected to press the "Perm Root" button
on the AIO root tool I had used.
Ecstatic, I rushed up and pressed that button as soon as I could.
The process went off without a hitch, but the next time I tried to boot something odd happened.
Every time I boot the HTC splash screen stating "this is for development purposes only.. etc" pops up.
-the one that would pop up when entering the bootloader - EVERY TIME.
I tried to restore but this splash screen still shows up, then loops on the HTC ONE screen....
AAAAAND that's where I'm at now. I attempted to factory restore from the bootloader, which would
erase my backups and whatnot. I don't know how infamous this issue is but I am unable to mount my storage.
Plenty other people seem to have this issue.
So, is there anything I can do?
You should try to run an RUU, then report back.

I'm actually trying to find one now. I haven't been able to find one for Bell/Virgin wild on the interwebs.
I'm trying to find the mysterious RUU section on the painfully slow HTCdev website..
anyone have a link or something?

The most common reason for ROMs hanging on boot splash or looping is that you failed to fastboot flash the boot image that comes with the ROM.
The good news is if you can detect the phone in your computer, your phone isn't bricked.
That message you mentioned is normal for all of us flashers
I bet you didn't notice the "tampered" flag or you would have freaked out even more

I need help please. I flashed the rom following the instructions and my phone boots but the screen remains all black. I hear a sound when it boot and nothing else. I am trying to reach recovery but I haven't been able by holding volume down + power. Any help please?

Never mind I got it fixed. It was all because the boot img wasn't in place yet.

ohhhhh that makes sense, and I think I'm bricked. I'm pretty sure I can run adb commands though. maybe I should try oem lock again command again? this is exactly what the top says
***TAMPERED***
***RELOCKED***
*** Security Warning***
I should point out that when I start the ruu the screen actually goes to a black screen with "htc" on it and that's it. and I tried to lock it again via abd and it says its already locked
---------- Post added at 05:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 AM ----------
Ok I should also say that when ever I restart phone it goes right into bootloader. I'm guessing because ruu erased everything ? should i maybe unlock boot loader, root, download stock rom and then try rue again?

Man, I never read anything good anywhere in these forums lol. This phone is so awesome as is, I really don't think it is worth the trouble unlocking and rooting and all. Maybe it is cause only the bad gets posted but there seems to be a lot of it. This phone is definitely meant for the normal person who cares nothing about flashing it seems. I would love to be able to just root it for root-required apps, themes and Volume wake and/or slide to wake but it seems to be more trouble than it's worth.
Cyanogenmod 10 makes this phone 10 times the awesome.

Unlock your phone again. Change your CID to HTC__001. Then run an unbranded RUU.

Yesterday my fiancée performed some updates from the market. Shortly after her phone turned off.
Now when trying to turn it on the phone gets stuck on the white screen with the green HTC logo.
I have tried booting it in to fast mode by turning it on with the volume down button held and then selecting fastboot.
This allowed me to try and flash the O2 ROM back to the phone. It find the software version on the phone (which is slightly newer than the ROM I have downloaded).
The next stage is "Rebooting in to bootloader" this is where it just comes to a stop, the fastboot menu freezes and the phone doesn't do anything.
Does anyone have any ideas? Much appreciated.
Is ur phone rooted or stock? U could try a factory reset...
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA Premium App
It's totally stock other than being unlocked.
If I try a Factory Reset from the HBOOT screen it just locks up. Is there another way?
If I try recovery it turns off, comes up with Green arrows in a circle, vibrates 5 or 6 thimes, then does nothing.
Hope your phone will comes up,try to flash ruu

When you say unlocked, I'm assuming that you mean network unlocked and not S-OFF (via XTC clip)?
I'm afraid that I'd be tempted to return the device from where you bought it and attempt to get a repair/replacement unit.
Sorry that I was unable to help anymore.

Hi yes, network unlocked and not S-OFF
It seems to be like the bootloader has become corrupt some how.
I'll start making arrangments with HTC, thank you.
If anyone else has any ideas or suggestions let me know.
I checked all the other bricked threads and none have the same problem as me.
My HTC ONE X will not boot and or charge. I cannot get access to the bootloader or recovery.
My HTC ONE X had it's bootloader unlocked via the rogers htc-dev method. I also installed clockwork recovery. It is rooted also but you prob figured that already...
I pulled a bonehead move by flashing the MIUI rom the international one x by changing the update script to flash onto my phone. After it flashed it looked like it worked. When I left recovery and shut the phone off it would not turn back on.
I called AT&T they said they will switch it for me when they get a shipment but I want to keep this phone because the boatloader is unlocked and they might patch the rogers method.
Thanks in advanced.
P.S. I know how to use adb and other tools such as RUU and they did not work.
Have you tried holding the power button for 10 seconds to reset it? You should see the 3 lights below flashing.

First of all, you should be able to get to H-Boot by holding volume down when turning it on.
Second of all, this is why they lock the bootloader in the first place.

H-Boot key combo is not working.
I have been flashing roms since the samsung moment, I built and modified roms on my EVO and ported roms from other phones to the EVO. I always had recovery to fall back onto to get my phone booting again. Even when I had the Xperia Play that required a PC to boot recovery I was still able to get the phone to work. This phone is strange that is will not even turn onto H-boot/Bootloader.

Im glad I have my iPhone to fall back on but it is really annoying that I cannot even get the bootloader to load. I only had it 3 days and already broke it.
Thank God the dude at AT&T cannot get into the bootloader also to see that is was tampered with so they are giving me a replacement.
And people wonder why at&t locks their phones down. I'm guessing you just told them "my phone broke...I have no idea what happened". Just lovely.

Honestly, not trying to call you stupid or something, but did you really think it was going to run on this phone when it was meant for another one? The GPU and CPU are completely different...
Anyway, I'm glad AT&T is replacing it for you. Hopefully if someone else bricks the same way then they will be able to get a replacement as well.
so you are smart enough to use adb, an RUU, unlock your bootloader, root, flash roms.......but you aren't smart enough to see the hundreds of posts saying that the international roms don't work on our phones??
lol
Coming from a phone that is virtually unbrickable (Captivate), I'm quite curious about how you managed to get it into this state. What exactly did you flash? Did the package contain both the system image and bootloaders for the tegra3 one x?

My EVO was unbrickable too, I flashed a rom that was designed for the international version. It only contained system and other basic rom stuff, nothing that was crazy.
No idea why you wouldn't be able to boot into recovery then. I hope all HTC handsets aren't like this..

What method are you using for the unlock key? I don"t think you can use the same key twice. Try starting the unlock process from scratch and getting a new unlock code from HTC.

I managed to re-unlock it by continuously trying, powering off the phone, powered back on, eventually it re-unlocked.. I guess it's just glitchiness. In case anyone else has this issue they can reference this.

Incorrect, you can use the same key over and over.
The process is just glitchy, as the OP has found. Sometimes the key will work on the first try, sometimes it takes 10 tries (whether unlocking the first time, or re-unlocking).

Hold power until the phone shuts off, then press and hold volume down until bootloader comes up, then try again, over and over untuil it works.

Yes try again, that also takes several tries sometimes, Easiest to do on a sense rom and if you run into the issue, again the best thing to do is hold power until the phone shuts off and then try again (this simulates a battery pull).

After that i was debating on to try the method of getting s-off with a mac. I asked for helped in facepalm's s-off thread but now no one helped me..that sucks
Now i tryed to get s-off by myself with a mac but it went well until the point where adb does not reconnect at all after the "fastboot flash OneX.zip"
after that it just went to hell as where it did not reboot anymore and then i tried to reflash urdroids rom again with boot.img flashed in fastboot.
after that it stayed in bootloader and hung there forever. It does not even go to recovery mode anymore.Once it went to recovery but the sdcard does not mount at all..
Now i tried a ruu and relocked the BL again and i got a friends window pc to use the ruu..Now it works everything until It says checking HBOOT..thats where it freezes and restarts over and over again.
ANY HELP?? PLEASE RESPOND ASAP AS THIS IS A EMERGENCY AS I HAVE A MEETING TOMORROW MORNING>

after that it just went to hell as where it did not reboot anymore and then i tried to reflash urdroids rom again with boot.img flashed in fastboot.
after that it stayed in bootloader and hung there forever. It does not even go to recovery mode anymore.Once it went to recovery but the sdcard does not mount at all..
Now i tried a ruu and relocked the BL again and i got a friends window pc to use the ruu..Now it works everything until It says checking HBOOT..thats where it freezes and restarts over and over again.
ANY HELP?? PLEASE RESPOND ASAP AS THIS IS A EMERGENCY AS I HAVE A MEETING TOMORROW MORNING>

If you don't have a warranty you can send it into mobiletechvideos.com and see if they can fix it.

Hmmm, an unfortunate lesson on the perils of doing stuff you don't really understand.
When you connect it to the charger does the charge light come on?

That is a brick. Jtag or try the unbrick thread. I think if you can make it past step 3 you can fix it

ok thanks!
Hello guys, mainly developers and their friends who might mention my case between each other.
This is a quite big problem, so maybe these few lines below deserve a second read.
From the very beginning: I bought an XE in Europe from second hand. I was about to open the bootloader by using htcdev. As a good layman I found a useless thread which's misled me: I factory reset the phone and after that I did not enable USB Debugging. On the official htc site of unlocking bootloader I chose the option from the list, titled 'Sensation EU'. Since then I've already found out this is an Asian device (cid: ASIA-HK-CHT HTC__622), so I should have chosen 'All other supported device'. In the last step by unlocking bootloader I got a question about unlocking it, or not, whereupon I asked it to do so, causing immediate freeze on the screen.
So, this smartie is bricked now - even though I can reach the bootloader(h-boot 1.29) and the recovery(stock) too - considering the following: I can't unlock it anymore by using the right 'Unlock_code.bin' file either, since it shows me the same frozen screen after choosing 'yes' (by step 12 at htcdev). Nor I can S-OFF or accomplish the RUU procedure. At the latter I can go until it's checked the P58IMG.zip file, and asking me for applying the update. When I press vol_up the brick begins updating the bootloader and never finishes. I mean I like watching that screen for hours, colorful and I'm really obsessed with the phrase 'Updating...', but I'd still like to use this sensation for calls and things. If run the execute file(RUU) on PC, while the phone is connected via 'FASTBOOT USB' it gets stuck at 'rebooting bootloader...' In fastboot I can't even erase my cache, neither in recovery.
Do you think, it'll ever be able to use for its destiny again, if I'd follow the instructions you may give me?
Thank you very much in advance.

Thanks for your response. I can't factory reset from nowhere, it causes frostbite. So the details:
H-BOOT Pyramid 1.29.0000, LOCKED, S-ON; the phone main version is 3.32.708.151

Thank you guys, I really appropriate your help. The only thing is when I try to run the execute file, it stops doing anything by "rebooting bootloader"... After 20 minutes the same screen, and the guide only tells me that it takes approximately 10 minutes. When I try to flash it from bootloader, I doesn't go any further then updating bootloader.
Question: the RUU on the link you post is 3.33.707. My phone is HK and not WWE, so it's 708 and not 707. In the txt the cid version is HTC__621, mine is HTC_622. Do you think is enough if I'd just write my cid number into that? I'll givi it a go anyways, but if you have any advice...
Thank guys, you're the best.

Ohh then the ruu won't work and changing the cid won't help either.
Hmm we need that ruu
Otherwise try the soff without htcdev (guide link in my signature) as you can't htcdev unlock it

still nothing

Yeah, thanks for the link, but it doesn't work either. I've written the 'cidnum: HTC__622' (without any spaces before and after that) into the txt, but after it's checked the P58IMG.zip doesn't ask me anything, just let me be in bootloader like I'd have started the device in bootloader mode without SD.
all right

All right, I will try to S-OFF using your guide, but the 3rd and 4th points are not available for me. So I can only connect my phone to PC with Fastboot USB. :\ What do you think?
p.s. This is the file I could go the furthest with: RUU_PYRAMID_LE_ICS_35_S_hTC_Asia_HK_3.32.708.112_R_Radio_11.69A.3504.00U_11.23.3504.07_M2_release_253449_signed.exe
As you see, it is still 3.32, but finally 708, but the last number from that part really makes me anxious, because it's 112, and on my phone that number is 151. I really don't want to give up, so any advice will be appropriated. (Yes, I've seen the donate me button on your profile )

Well, I'm in command: "* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *|* daemon started successfully *" and it's been nothing happening since I've started the method 10 min ago.
"Hmm we need that ruu" => which numbers must match you think in the name of the file? And where the hell to find? yahoo twice better than ggl, so I found the previous one I've showed you.

Flash the ruu with phone connected from fastboot
Thats should work
Also if the ruu flashing stuck at some point.. There will be a log generated at C:/ruu post the log here (latest modified file)
Edit: btw Donate won't work for me. You can donate to devs on my behalf if you want
