I am running the latest AOKP, and was having problems with tiny chat. I decided to reboot into recover and wipe everything. I wiped all the options that allow a wipe, and then went to reboot. It would not reboot - it said there was nothing in /system. Now, if I try to turn it on, it gets to the HTC screen, and nothing.
Did I just brick my phone?
Some folks in the other forum posted that I could download an RUU to flash. How do I do that if I can't boot?
Not bricked just no OS loaded.
You should just be able to boot into recovery and copy a rom across to storage then flash.

Reflash the Rom, you have nothing.installed
Power off your phone by holding power for 15 seconds
Hold power then volume down then release power while holding volume down
It will boot into hboot and select recovery, reflash and boot it up

There is nothing in recover, and the only thing under Install is TWRP.

Your recovery mode has the option for mass storage, use that to put a Rom on the sdcard and flash it

In Recovery, click on Mount and Mount USB storage. If you have proper drivers, your computer will detect the phone as a HDD. You can copy files to the internal SD card and flash in Recovery.
It says I have to format the drive to continue. Should I do that?

Yes, anything you had is lost already so you need to format

Noooo... Make a nandroid before you wipe... You can always extract your data from your nandroid .

Okay. I went into TWRP and chose mount, then mount USB storage. My computer picked it up and I transferred Evita and Gapps to it. However, when I then go to Install, there is nothing listed.
XDA is amazing as always. Fixed it. Thank you all so much!

Unfortunately the wipe system function sometimes causes the ad to corrupt. I've seen this issue a couple of times

I have soft bricked my phone 3 times due to my recovery not sticking. I followed the OneXRoot.com instructions. When I flashed the TWRP on the terminal ( I use mac) it says sending ok booting ok then boots onto the recovery. Once I restart the phone and try to get back in recovery its either a bootloop or black screen, phone and red triangle. I've tried ./fastboot-mac flash and boot with the .IMG file name. Please help.

That's hopeful. Do what gunnyman said. If that doesn't solve your problem than see if you can get Windows running via Boot Camp or the risky virtual machine.

I think a good first step is to verify you're rooted and the bootloader is still unlocked.
pushing an image to the phone SHOULD fail if it's locked but stranger stuff has happened

Ok so installing TWRP through GooManager WORKED. Thanks. That's one issue fixed. Now flashing another Rom is the issue. I've tried slim ics and cm9 and after pushing the img file ad flashing Rom in recovery I get an error. Something about assert failed. Any idea what that could be?

You're flashing roms not meant for your phone. Use roms in our development section only.

For slim ics I know it said htc one x....maybe not for the att version. I'll keep that in mind and look around. I guess no stable aosp roms out. Thanks a lot for your help. I'll repost if I run to ant other issues

There's AOKP, CM9, Paranoid Android, MIUI, just to name a few stable AOSP roms available. All you have to do is stay within this forum..no need to wander off to the international One X forums

Are you on HBOOT 1.14? Did you flash the boot.img in fastboot?
Do you have a backup? You can get back to recovery by holding volume down and pushing the power button for ~15 seconds. When the capacitive buttons stop flashing, release the power button but keep holding volume down. That should get you to the bootloader screen. You can choose recovery or fastboot there.

You shouldnt have to seperate the boot.img in viper 2.4.0. It'll do it for you. Make sure you selected the correct option.
Wipe everything in twrp and flash again

Where did you perform the factory reset? All resetting needs to be done inside twrp.
If that is all truly gone, you need to try and mount the phone as storage when you plug into your pc. From there, reload the Rom you wanted. Go back into twrp and wipe all cache. Then do a system wipe. Finally do a factory reset INSIDE twrp.
Now go to Install in twrp.
Select your rom zip.
Swipe to flash.
Follow Aroma Installer and select your preferences.
Be patient and let it do the install as it will take a little while.
Let it finish and follow steps to reboot.
Once rebooted you need to again be patient as the first boot will take a while.
Enjoy!!

Of the many things I've learned from fellow xda members, research the heck out of things, ask questions before jumping in head first and if that doesn't work-stay calm and come back here.
Everyone here is so knowledgeable, eager to teach and filled with ideas. We are all glad you got your ROM up and running.

So, I tried entering Recovery Mode, but accidentally pressed Factory Reset within the BL Mode, it rebooted, and now TWRP says
E: No SDCARD to mount / .
Someone please give me the recovery stock for evita , or some help suggestions here?
I thank you very much!

I also can't RUU, don't wanna risk bricking my phone with Super CID , also, PC does recognize it in Fastboot mode, so yeah.
You should be able to format the sd card in Windows.

Yeah formatting through Windows is the only way back from this. You may think, but hey, formatting it will wipe the content. Unfortunately that's already happened from factory resetting in bootloader.

Or you could run an ruu if you can't figure out how to format. Either one works.

For the record, I believe 2.6 twrp format can fix corrupt sd card.
I'll test to be sure.
Edit: With twrp 2.6 factory reset in bootloader didn't even seem to currupt my sd card. It just wiped it.

Ever since i plugged in my PC from that day, factory resetting in BL Mode, it would say "Device seems to be corrupt, you need to format this in windows", but yes, it did remove everything from it anyways.
Okays guys so my friend is having some issues, I can't solve it so I figured I would go ahead and ask you. When he plugs in his phone while in recovery to mount the sd card, nothing shows up on his computer. When trying to flash a custom rom or backup of a rom, it gives error status 7. I do not know what is wrong with it, and can not seem to find out how to fix it. I have spent the past hour or so browsing the forums after he did trying to find a resolve to the issue with no avail. If you can help me in any way it would be greatly appreciated.
What version of recovery are you using? Sounds like the SD card is corrupt from doing a factory reset in bootloader.

He is running TWRP 2.1.6, he does all of his wipes in recovery none in bootloader.
Edit: It even shows up in device manager, as a regular device. No exclamation point or anything. ADB even recognizes it in recovery mode.

Attempting this right, he said that he flashed the newest one but he didn't. Thanks for the input this might just be a user error on his end.
Hey guys today when I turned my phone on nothing happened it showed the htc screen then turned off. I loaded recovery and noticed that everything on my SD card was wiped. I'm thinking even the OS is gone as well because it will not boot past the HTC screen. It stays there and after about a min or so the phone turns off. Is there a way to install the stock os in fastboot?
Provide more info please. What ROM were you on? Were you on a custom kernel? Had you made any changes to the device recently? What are your bootloader details?

I didn't have a custom rom installed, I was on latest stock. I was rooted and my bootloader was unlocked. I didn't make any changes to my device
That's very odd, devices don't usually just wipe automatically. Anyway, just try mounting your sd card in TWRP recovery and copying a ROM across from your PC.
