Hey guys, im a noob and i recently flashed ViperXL on my att HOX. everything was going fine except after i restored data from Titanium backup that i had backed up from previous ROM (AOKP build 4). Titanium said i had to reboot so i did. And now i am stuck on "htc ONE" screen. Is my phone done? please help!
Plug your phone in, use ADB to reboot into recovery, wipe everything and reinstall ViperXL.
Don't restore apps from another ROM like AOKP

Also reminds us all the importance of backing up our data via a Custom Recovery before flashing ROMs
ive stumpled on upon a quite annoying problem..i have an HTC ONE X+ which i unlocked my bootloader on and everything went smooth until i wanted to start recovery via hboot.
it did not start and i tried several times and restarted etcetc, i then tried to flash in another recovery and then tried more and more but nothing..
then i cant remember now exaclty how i did it, but i have several RUU, kernel, recovery, boot and roms n such items downloaded
so i tried to feed in another flash or rom or whatever its called to get the recovery funtion to work (i am not very pro at this) and then when i wanted to start my phone normally it all of a sudden wont boot properly.
it freezes on the bootscreen.. i can turn off and go in to bootloader but i cant do ANYTHING from there, i cant do a factory reset (wich i also tried when the recovery did not want to work) i cant do **** there. tried to lock and unlock bootloader.. feels like im out of options..
the only thing i can do now is command the phone via cmd and the toolkit i use from here "Hasoon2000s htc one x AIO kit"
using this guide on this thread mostly..
ive tried so many things now, searched this and other forums since friday and i still can not get anywhere... starting to think this is what the definition of a bricked unit is??
if you need any more info please just ask.. i bought the phone a week ago so kinda sucks if it would be useless for me right away haha..
i would appreciate som help and tips... please
Sincerely Jeff

long story short, the g2x isn't mine but i have plenty of experience rooting android devices. the power button on this one is going so it's days are numbered but atm it's completely unusable as a phone. there's an issue as well with the sdcard. the rom i put on it isn't on it. it showed the file being transferred but for whatever reason it's not there. i checked internal/external....nothing.
so where i'm at now.....the phone's been wiped so powering on the device gets me nowhere. it's getting more difficult to get it to turn on at all so i'm having difficulty getting into recovery. i know it's volume down & power but is there a timing you need to get down? seems it either freezes trying to boot regularly or i go to the s/w screen. any help would be appreciated.
power and volume combo til you see the bluish purple LG logo.
I am not sure what method you used for recovery, but this is the thread I recomend. Follow that and let us know if it works out.

oh i know it's not bricked. my fingers tips are freaking sore from doing this all night/morning. just trying to turn it on without messing with the volume only works so often. it's just the power button being worn/defective. makes getting it into recovery that much more difficult.

can't power on a device using adb sadly .
unless anyone ever came across an image file for your sdcard by chance for the g2x i think it's toast. what's a g2x that doesn't boot worth for battery/parts on craigslist?
Usually what I do is hold power+vol down til i see the lg screen, then let go of the power button but continue holding the volume down button.
Rom for recovery will get you back to stock 2.3.3,check the dev forum.
Just make sure you have apx drivers installed then u just nvflash! Make sure you hold both volume up/down the whole time or it wont work.

the problem is it wont turn on the power button is faulty or something...
My advice before parting it out... get it to boot to the lg logo again (hopefully) and then use adb I'm almost positive it will recognize it at the 1st splash screen. If not that then take it apart and with out the case I'm sure you can see what is causing the issue and fix it probably.

Don't know if it would work or not but I'm thinking adb reboot recovery command would do it. If we can get it to show up in adb things can be done for it.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
You don't even need to use the power button for rom for recovery, like I said b4 only holding both volume up/down the whole process will restore the phone back to stock gb rom. After the process is done it automagically reboots the phone, might I suggest an app called button remapper as well.. it can make a useless button (the search button imo) turn into your new power on/off solution.
Hope this helps!
Sent from my SCH-R720 using xda premium
never knew about the button remapper.....have discovered it since things went poopy already.
in any case, adb is recognizing it. never thought that it might, so thanks for the heads up there. however, typing "adb reboot recovery" isn't getting me anywhere. i haven't messed with the recovery but even trying to reflash a recovery just leaves me hanging at "waiting for devices"? can't even seem to get into fastboot mode either. appreciate all the help & advice everyone, thank you.

Ok, first off, sorry about the reboot command, I didn't mean to communicate that that was the exact command. For what I do I usually use Droid Explorer. Which I think may be better in this situation. If it's waiting for devices (unless it's waiting for the device to reboot) then it didn't connect to the phone. But if it did connect then I have an idea. Can you clarify, for my tired mind, what you're meaning with being Connected and waiting for devices.

ok....was able to restore to stock.....rerooted.....have a working recovery again. thank you everyone. i've been through a few different phones and i have to say, it's refreshing to be on xda and have this kind of a response.
on another note, i found buttonremapper but it doesn't seem to work for the g2x (or at least mine). i know cm7 can use the volume to wake the phone. that was what was on the phone before things went bad but it wasn't working. i have no idea how old of a nightly it was though either so i suppose i'll start with that.
big thanks again to everyone!

Power it down.....press volume down & power at the same time.......welcome to HBoot. You can do everything the info in the link I left you explains right from there and/or from Recovery or with ADB in the SDK.
A battery pull will shut it down.....volume down, power & pressing the trackpad for 5 seconds will give you a reboot from a hangup.

Battery pull.
Hold Volume down, press power to get into recovery.
This happened to me two days ago... And I probably know less than you about how to fix it.
I ended up using Hasoon's unlocker tool to flash the boot image from the rom I had flashed after mounting the phone via Recovery.
As someone said, with S-ON you have to flash the boot/kernel or whatever separately...

Anyway, today I did a factory reset and restored to my earliest backup. The phone booted originally but then said process.android something or other has stopped working. Phone turned off. Now, when I try to turn it back on, it wont go past the boot animation. Its not connecting to my computer to reboot it with a command, either. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated and ASAP.

From the ROM. Thats when it told me process.android stopped, then went to the htc one x loading screen.

Whenever you want to Wipe ANYTHING you have to do it from your recovery (TWRP).
Boot into TWRP by holding the down volume and power, for what seems like a lifetime and try to restore from there?

My computer still doesnt show any connection to the phone. I tried downloading the RUU and when I ran it on PC, it said it couldnt connect to my phone.
When doing RUU, make sure you relock your bootloader. Instructions here http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-re-lock-htc-one-x-bootloader/
make sure you have HTC Sync and drivers installed if you are flashing RUU.
Also when u get into your bootloader, highlight bootloader and select it. After, right above that, in red it will read fastboot usb. Until then your pc wont recognize it.
It worked! You guys are all awesome!

Connect your phone to your PC then in recovery click mount PUT THE RIGHT VERSION OF THE ROM in your sd card and then unmount, Go to Wipe (factory reset, system,cache,cache delvik) do it in that order then install the zip.

It depends on what Tegra rom you flashed. Some of them will hard brick your phone (which sounds like you), some can be recovered.
If you have a Windows PC, plug your phone in and open Device Manager and see what pops up. If you see QHUSB_DLOAD, you've got a brick.
Thanks

Yeah I get QHUSB_DLOAD. So if i take it in to get it replaced, is it so messed up that they won't even be able to tell it's been unlocked, and just replace it? I have insurance and I've had it less than 14 days. Or could I just report it stolen or lost?
The AT&T insurance covers pretty much everything. No need to lie, just tell them it doesn't work.

If you forgot to wipe the phone would still attempt to boot. It just might send you into a bootloop

Yeah except I can't get it to boot at all. No response to turning on, pulled battery, waited 30 minutes, then tried to boot again. nothing. not even the LED. now if I leave the battery out and plug the phone in to the computer the LED turns on but that's it. At the computer end I get the sound for plugging in a USB device, however it doesn't do anything else and there were no drivers for the device: QHSUSB_DLOAD.
Is it hard bricked?
Try getting into recovery by holding volume up+home button +power button at the same time. Hold it for a few seconds and it should vibrate and one the Samsung logo comes on you could let go. At this point I would either try re flashing or restore your most recent backup download another rom and try again.

Take your battery out for at least 5 minutes than put on the charger for awhile (couple hours) than try again.
