[Q] I hope I didn't brick my phone

I'm new to android and really hope I didn't pooch my phone.
I tried installing Jelly Bean and now can't do much of anything. I can get into bootloader and load up team windows recovery (not sure what to do in there)
When I am in fastboot and try through a command prompt adb devices doesn't list the HTC One X (Rogers, Canada)
I really am not sure what to do. I have downloaded a ton of stuff nothing seems to make a difference (HTC drivers, img and zip files..) I think it boils down to getting some direction on what troubleshooting to do with the exact files I would need to use.

flash a rom in recovery ofcourse.
adb doesnt work in hboot only fastboot. your phone is fine. you need to copy the rom zips to your sdcard. then go to install inside recovery. you can mount your sdcard inside recovery also so you can copy stuff. you should still be able to reboot the system normal and have it boot fine. unlocking and flashing recovery doesnt wipe your phone.

PJ83IMG_Evita_UL_Rogers_WWE_1.73.631.1_Radio_0.16a.32.09.06_10.81.32.14L_release_254934_signed.zip
One_X_2.17.401.2_deodexed.zip
ROM-017.zip
cm10_endeavoru-ota-eng.noeri-017.zip
None of these worked.. they all failed.

Those are old(1st one) which you can't flash in recovery anyways since its an RUU or not for your phone(Other 2).

Also I'm not 100% sure that I haven't already done that. Does that mean its beyond fixing ?

So you flashed a .zip file, not knowing what it would do or what would happen? Nevertheless, a .zip file not for your device?

No, if you can get into fastboot your fine.... I would just download the correct "Evita" ruu, not endeavor. Run it, do some thorough research and try again......... ruus can be found in the compilation roll up stickied thread

Which seems to be the only Rogers RUU however its also the only one i've seen so far that isn't an exe but a zip file.
Is there an RUU application?

Forget ruu. Flash twrp recovery if you haven't already, download viperXL in our dev section, fire up twrp, mount usb, copy viperXL over, unmount usb, install from zip, select viperXL. Zip, follow prompts, reboot, victory.
Oh then hit my thanks button...
Pm me if you need assistance cuz I am just that nice.

[Q] I've made a huge mistake, is my HOX still salvageable?

Hello,
I just want to say that please don't say "you should have read instructions more carefully...etc" its too late for that. I'm just trying to see if its possible to get my HOX working again so its not a brick. So please, if you can help me, I will gladly donate to you.
I have a HTC ONE XL (AT&T). I saw a thread today on XDA saying 2.2 was able to be rooted, so I decide to root my HOX. It took a lot of courage, but I was able to root it and unlock the bootloader.
Everything was going great, I decided to flash CM10, the newest one: cm-10-20121025-EXPERIMENTAL-evita.zip. along with gapps-jb-20121011-signed.
First mistake: I did not backup
Recovery is TWRP v2.3.1.0
I wiped cache, dalvik cache, and system, then flashed CM10
Then i flashed GAPPS
I thought I had everything in the bag, rebooted it and let it do its thing. People say the first boot took long time (~5 mins) I gave it 10 mins. Nothing, its stuck on the boot loop.
Then I retried this 2 other times, same thing.
I panicked and accidentally hit factory reset, and managed to clear everything, both of the flashable files (CM10 and GAPPS) from my HOX, now all i can do is go into TWRP recovery. If i try to reboot into bootloader system or recovery it says "NO OS installed! Are you sure you wish to reboot?"
So please, can anyone help me, this was a very costly mistake, but I'm trying to fix it.
CLIFFS:
-Made mistake of not backing up
-Now only boots to TWRP, no flashable files.

First of all bro, you did everything right in the first place except flash the boot.img seperate using fastboot. That's why you bootlooped bc you had no kernel.
Second, don't worry lol. plug in phone to your computer and enter twrp, choose "mount". Get on your computer and download Rom of choice. Once downloaded, extract Rom and seperate the boot.img. rezip Rom. Transfer Rom onto phone.
fastboot boot.img, then flash the Rom through twrp. Then your golden

Hi inflatedtitan,
Thanks for replying, you are a lifesaver, i almost bought another phone... because i thought i was done for.
However, im not sure what you mean exactly as i have not done this flashing before. so i downloaded the rom cm10.
1. so i unizip the rom on my computer
2. copy rom onto phone
3. flash??
thanks please clarify thanks again.
ur a lifesaver.
EDIT: when i hit mount, there are 4 boxes, what do i check (i cant select SD card)? and when i hit mount, it shows up on my computer but asks me to format disk. should i do it?!

As you already factory reseted and lost everything, you should format as the damage is already done lol, it'll get your sdcard back right. But when you extract cm10 on your computer you'll see the boot.img in the folder. Move it to where you have adb and fastboot. THEN rezip Rom and transfer to your phone.

I took a screenshot

so i copy the boot to the folder with adb and fastboot? and copy cm-10-2012... to my HOX (unchanged)?

Yes exactly, then run fastboot flash boot boot.img
After that is done, open TWRP and run the zip file

Rom will have excluded boot.img . Try it out and see what happens as you recapped. I'm not so sure as your running fastboot through the xfactor program.. but try it out, worst case is you bootloop like last time. If that happens again, you know to download android SDK tools, adb and fastboot and reinstall HTC drivers and start over
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium

They are many simple tutorials for rooting but do not know why you guys having hard time. Ok here is
1) You got Android SDK from google + Platform-tools + Google USB Driver -
2) Only for windows - Download htc sync ( It will install necessary htc drivers) - Link
3) Just to check if htc drivers installed properly , open "C:\android-sdk\platform-tools" ( Or folder where adb and fastboot exists) then "Press shift + right click and select "Open command window here" ( open command prompt and cd "folder where adb and fastboot exists).
4) In command window type " adb devices" and see output - If you get output then htc drivers installed properly.
You can skip step 3 and step 4 - These steps are only for verification
5) Goto [ROOT] HTC One X AT&T 2.20 Firmware - X-Factor root exploit and follow the instructions there.
6) Once you successfully root your device using above exploit then goto - [How To] Flash Custom recovery and ROMS after 2.20 root complete the steps to flash custom recovery and if you want to flash ROMS
7) To unlock BOOT LOADER use this link - [INDEX] AT&T/ROGERS One X Resources Compilation Roll-Up , follow the instructions under " BOOTLOADER UNLOCK, SUPER CID, AND S-OFF"
You can also goto this link - [ROOT][2.20] One XL Bootloader unlock & Root guide By XsMagical - Very nice tutorial, if you find above links difficult to follow
Note* : During exploit or flashing recovery they talk about using fastboot commands, In order to execute them you need goto C:\android-sdk\platform-tools" ( Or folder where adb and fastboot exists) then "Press shift + right click and select "Open command window here" ( open command prompt and cd "folder where adb and fastboot exists) and then execute the commands ..
Advice - Do not flash any roms apart from xda

uhh guys so i did the whole fastboot thing, everything looked great. but when i try to go back to recovery, im stuck at the htc quietly brilliant
"this build is for development purpose only
do not distribute..." screen. I cant get back to recovery!?
Sorry for being such a noob, i really appreciate your guyses help.

Try it a couple times, if that doesn't work reflash recovery.

Have you tried holding power and volume down? When phone flashes and goes off, release power button and keep holding volume down till you get to hboot. White screen that says fastboot, recovery, facto reset, etc

Any progress bro?
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium

you don't delete boot.img from the rom, leave the original zip untouched. just make sure you flash boot.img in fastboot though. whenever i flash something in fastboot i like to run "fastboot erase cache".
NEVER factory reset in bootloader, it will mess up your sdcard.
you should rewipe and reflash everything in twrp. also verify the md5 checksums of cm10 and gapps both the md5 sums are listed at their download locations.

yep that's another thing i've asked all the querying noobs to do, changing the op to [SOLVED] when it is but to no avail :crying:

sry guys it took very long, i followed all your instructions and finally fixed it last night. I went straight to sleep because of work. Thanks again for your help, sorry for late restponse:
my solution: I followed INFLATEDTITAN's instructions. double click the cm10 rom, then take out the boot.img, copy that to where your fastboot files are, SHIFT right click, select CMD (or open cmd and use cd to change directory to folder), then type what he said w/ fastboot, make sure your connected. Then i flashed the cm10 rom, the gapps, reboot, took a couple tries.
Anyways, it works great, so smooth.... on wifi.
I have stragiht talk, and I've been getting really crappy speeds for data, from 5Mbps to 0.16.... down, interestingly, upload has not changed ~1.2 mbps. does anyone have any insight? Why DL is so slow but UL is still the same?

Can you tell me how to edit my post? i can only edit the content, not the title.
Also I have a question on radios. From this thread: (click "this")
I have the latest cm10 nightly build, as I said in my previous post, I am on straight talk. While the radio is showing HSPA+, I'm getting edge speeds (0.16mbps) but good upload speed ~1.2mbps.
Can I use the AT&T 2.2 radio from this list? (near the bottom)
Radios for Latest CM10 versions (with radio in /system/etc/firmware)
I just rooted my phone from 2.2, and want to make sure I'm using the right one.
Thanks.

Sorry bro, can't flash radios and RILs being you have the newer hboot
Sounds like you're into aosp roms. But usually the newer sense Roms are just as amazing and usually are updated with the newer radio. However I'm using old hboot, so I can't confirm that if you flash a Rom, the included radio will also automatically flash. Can anyone reading help with the correct answer?

Did you flash the Rom first or did you even flash a rom

can We assume you have a recovery? Did you make a back up? Hold the power + volume down. From there go into recovery. See if you can flash ur ROM. If says successful, good to go. If not, flash you backup and start over. Or even go back to bootloader & push image again.

Hold power and vol down.. wait for buttons to flash, and shut off but continue holding. After it black for a sec or two, release power but hold vol down for approximately 5 seconds until you see the white hboot screen with skatin droids. From there enter fastboot

k got into fastboot now what? sorry im new to this...can you say all the steps...im using rebelmod 3.6.6-evita will this work? so i take the boot img out of it?

1. On your computer, extract Rom. Find the boot.img and move it to where you have SDK, adb and fastboot.
2. Rezip the Rom, but delete the boot.img from it first.
3. Enter fastboot from the hboot screen. (White screen with skating droids) fire up command promt where you put the boot.img. enter this command ----> fastboot flash boot boot.img
4. Enter recovery, flash rebelmod. If it's successful, flash gapps.
5. Profit.
If you manage to get to the colorful x boot ani, you should be golden. Report back bro

[Q] HTC One X (AT&T) Won't Turn on

Hi,
I am new to rooting the device. I rooted HTC One X (AT&T) using toolkit by Hasoon2000. I followed all the steps as per my knowledge. Everything went good rooting the device, But when I tried to flash CM 10.1 it was giving me failure error. When I did second time it gave me same error but somehow I thought ROM got flashed and went ahead and flashed kernel. While doing so my cell phone battery was till 50% but once I flashed kernel. Suddenly screen went blank and couldn't turn it on. When try to go into fastboot mode it lights up red led and once and stays there until I hit the power button. After hitting power button it shows the HTC logo and displays the message below logo about device being used for development. then within a second screen gets turned off (no red LED) I tried to keep for charging for at least an hour or so with computer as well as on AC power but results are same. Neither I am able to connect it to computer or charge it. I don;t know what is going on with my device. So please can someone help me with this issue? I would really appreciate if this issue been resolved.
Thanks in Advance.

Thanks you very much exad. Is it important to have S-OFF? Can I install android 4.3 ROM on HTC One X. Have you tried that? How can I check md5 to make sure CM is good?

S-off allows you to ruu without bricking.
Yes. I am running android 4.3 cm 10.2 right now. There have been bricks reported though that issue should be fixed now.
Use an md5 checker program. Google md5 checker.

Yes. I am running android 4.3 cm 10.2 right now. There have been bricks reported though that issue should be fixed now.
Use an md5 checker program. Google md5 checker.

I have flashed openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.1-m7.img but when I want to go to recovery it is still sticking on that HTC logo screen, giving message in red and getting it off. I don't know what I can do to go in recovery and do the needful.
Could you also provide me link to instruction to install CM 10..2 with that as well?
Thanks

M7 is the new HTC one device you flashed the wrong recovery. You need to flash twrp 2.6 for the evita.

If you are able to boot into recovery, then you should be able to use the command <code> adb push <code>to copy any file from your current directory in computer to the sdcard

Adb won't work, he doesn't have a ROM to boot into.

Even after installing TWRP 2.6 I am not able to flash the ROM. It is saying:

Wrong ROM. You have evita not endeavour.
Look before you download and flash wrong recovery and ROM because you are on track to brick your device. You have burnt 2 of your lives already.
You have no idea how lucky you are as your device should already be broken.

I think I have installed CM 10.1.2 for evita but now it is not rebooting into ROM. I am not able to reboot automatically. I have press and hold power and volume down key to go into fastboot. I am not getting what I am doing wrong now.

Ok. But listen to what Twisteddx said just before, take your time and make sure you're only flashing things meant for your device. He was right, you're EXTREMELY lucky you haven't bricked your phone yet. Only download ROMs from within this forum!

If you are s-on you need to extract the boot.img from the rom you're flashing and fastboot flash boot boot.img or it won't boot. With S-off this step is no longer required.

Question about Cyanogenmod 11

Hello guys,
I've been looking around for CM11 for my HTC One X+.
Now I've found the original CM11 on their website for HOX+, but there is one little question I got about this.
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=enrc2b
That's the link where I've found it by the way.
There is no boot.img download, how safe is it to just install the ROM? In my opinion it isn't.
So let me know what you guys think.

Its on the official website, and It should work. Make a backup though.
The boot.img download isn't there because the boot.img is probably inside the .zip.
So open the zip and you'll have your boot.img.

Yeah, already found it.
Thanks though.
One small question, if I'm going to put the .zip file on my SD card I can just leave the boot.img in the .zip right?

Oh okay, you will need to flash the boot.img alone then as flashing the ROM zip won't just work. So boot into bootloader, and flash the new boot.img you had extracted from the .zip
Once yo uhave flashed the .img boot into recovery mode and perform a gull wipe, including cache. Once done simply flash the zip and reboot.
First reboot takes a bit so be patient. I also recommend you getting a band backup in case.

Ye I know it takes a lot of time since I've been flashing a ROM once before, but I can just leave the file in the .zip when flashing it in recovery?

If you're coming from a Sense ROM you can't just flash the zip without flashing the boot.img. It wouldn't even boot. And sometimes it boots but without mobile signal or WiFi signal.
So just place the zip on your sdcard, take the boot.img out of the zip on your computer.. Then boot into bootloader and connect it to the computer using USB then type
"fastboot flash boot boot.img"
Then "fastboot erase cache"
(you must have fastboot installed and configured on your computer)
Then boot into recovery and flash the zip file and gapps. Oh don't forget a wipe is mandatory if you're coming from sense ROM. But if you're coming from an AOSP ROM it's recommended but you can go without wiping. I flashed cyanogen over paranoid android without wiping data and had no issues at all. But I wiped the system partition.
And you cannot S-OFF an HTC One X+.. If it's S-ON then it stays that way. Only a few amount of people have S-OFF on their HOX+.
Oh and I don't think TWRP recovery is compatible with CM11 on HOX+.. So I recommend you flash philz recovery. Flash it by using the fastboot command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
(recovery.img should be replaced with the name of the recovery you downloaded)
It doesn't take a lot of time. I change ROMs almost every week.
Please press the thanks button if I helped!
