[Q] S4 , cant access my recovery or boot normally! - HTC One S

i cannot boot phone into recovery nor can i boot phone normally... I had just installed Viper one S rom on my phone and rebooted into recovery because my wifi wasnt working , so i was just going to revert back to an old rom. After clicking reboot to recovery from Viper rom the screen just went white . I had to power it down manually, after powering it up it would stop at htc screen with the red development lines... tried to go into recovery and it will come up for a second then disapear then phone reboots.... any ideas? oh I also had installed Latest radio in CWM after installing rom.. I hear its buggy in CWM...

I had the same problem. Did you flash the boot.IMG in recovery or fastboot? If you flashed in recovery and its not supported by your hboot version. That could be the issue. Try re flashing the boot.IMG using fastboot. If you still cannot get it to work. I would try reinstalling a custom recovery manually and restarting the Rom flashing process. There are forums all over the place to help with that. Try twrp. Ps this is all assuming you are able to get into your boot loader.

Problem fixed. Don't ask me how lol. All I did was relock boot loader and flash stock ROM. Stock ROM would not load so I just decided to unlocked boot loader and phone rebooted fine. Recover works to.. crazy.

That happened to me when I didn't fast boot flash the boot.IMG file, but only the latest Viper has given me grief with that.

Is there a way to download leedroid tweaks on its own ?
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
Leedroid has v6.4 on the one S? or the one X?
V2.1 for the One S
Are there any direct links for the one s latest version only tweaks
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
I dont think the tweaks will work on a stock ROM, They require the modded framework.
;( leedroid always messes up when I try download it to my phone

Both of you just post on how you flash the rom. There has to be something easy that is overlooked. Cause i have flashed the rom 4 times with no problems

Did you flash the rom in cwm after the first time you flashed the boot.img? If not then that is probably your issue.
For me I flashed boot flash rom in cwm and for good measure flashed the boot again.
I am going to try a new download of the rom I think that could be my issue.
Right ill basically start from as if i was to flash the rom from if i has a stock phone
1.Make sure phone is rooted and unlocked by Htc dev
2.Have a custom recovery flashed
3.Download the v2.0 and v2.1 of the rom and also the boot.img
4.Place v2.0 and v2.1 files into a folder on your sd card.
5.Now make a nandroid backup of your current rom you are using before you flash LeeDroids rom
6.Extract the boot.img so that you can run the command to flash the .img to your phone
7.Boot phone into bootloader then fastboot, connect phone to pc and it should say fastboot usb.
8.Run the boot.img file to which ever OS you are using (meaning windows, mac etc.)
9.Get back into the bootloader screen and get into recovery.
10. Format system, data and cache also wipe dalvik cache as well. It should be wiped by formatting system and data but only takes 2seconds to do it anyway. You will find it under advanced menu(In Clockworkmod)
11. Find the .zip of leedroids v2.0 and flash it
12.Reboot phone and finish the setup menu and just let the phone settle for a minute or two after you finished it
13. Boot phone into bootloader and then fastboot. Run the boot.img again just to be sure.
14.Boot into recovery and flash v2.1 and then reboot and enjoy.
Now set phone up the way you want
This is the method i have used seems long but only takes 10minutes once you have all the files. I have done this 4 times using this method
I will try this method later so what's the v6.4?

One X Root Help

I was using the all in one root kit, thought i followed everything correctly.
If I boot the phone up, it get's stuck on the HTC screen.
When I go to bootloader and select recovery it goes to TWRP. When I select a .zip rom to install it always fails.
Suggestions?
I rooted my phone yesterday and got a boot loop. I fix that by downloading the official RUU for the phone from HTC website and relock bootloader, flash the RUU. I don't know what happened to you though

I think I managed to delete the OS that was on the phone, so now it has no OS. But I'm not sure. I'm hoping one of these smart guys can tell me the problem/solution

what does it say when it fails installing the rom? are you sure the rom is for the right device?
also, maybe the rom is corrupt? you could try downloading it again (if you are sure it's for your device).
Turn off md5 check in twrp. Then try flashing again. If your on Hboot 1.14 you'll need to flash that boot IMG for that rom in adb first.

Please list the exact steps you took, and explain the exact problem.
That way it will be easier to nail down the issue and give you help.

Do full wipe and the use the recovery to reboot back into it then flash rom without the wipe.

Wipe and try again... You got impatient the boot.IMG part takes a long time... Just start the flash and put your phone down... Leave it alone until its done...if you don't get an error it will finish just wait...
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
Yeah, dont interrupt the installer. It installs some other important stuff after the boot.img.
And yes, it takes a long time. If nothing has happened after 15min or so, then it might be something wrong.
For me, the boot.img part seems to take between 5 and 10min, depending on the weather outside, the alignment of the stars etc

[Q] Need help recovery only working

I have a HTC Inspire 4G, I got the bootloader unlocked and had it rooted. I had CWM Recovery on it that was like version 5.8 the one before that. I tried flashing a jellybean firmware, the phone never went by past the HTC white screen. I tried updating the recovery and it still didn't work. Right now my phone can only boot into hboot and that's still unlocked, but fastboot commands won't work, I can only flash new recoveries, but no ROMs actually get flashed. I tried using the PDimg thing for HBOOT to get back into full stock, I followed all the rules about going to ext3 (can't remember off the top of my head). It won't see the image, I've tried everything out there. ADB won't see the device unless in recovery mode, fastboot won't work, except to flash new recoveries.
Any possible ideas?
After flashing a ROM you need to fastboot flash thr ROM zip's boot.img.
Even if it doesn't boot into the ROM? It should work?

No. I missed that. Can you fastboot flash a recovery? If not, you can try running a RUU.
Yeah I am able to flash a recovery via fast boot, but to actually do any other commands via fast boot it won't recognize anything. HBOOT won't see any .zips, tried everything.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I don't understand. Where are these zips? Computer or phone?
Phone. The .zips are like the pd98img things. Those don't read on my phone from HBOOT
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Wait, if you have a working recovery, just flash a ROM (not PD98IMG) zip from the recovery (not fastboot). Download a custom ROM, full wipe in recovery, and flash in recovery.
Tried that. It seriously just sits there till the battery dies trying to turn on, doesn't pass the HTC white screen.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
And then extract the boot.img from the ROM zip and fastboot flash boot boot.img.
I love you haha
