[q] bricked? Help!!! - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I was trying to root the HOX and I think I bricked it. This happened to me with my HTC Vivid. When I plug in the device, it recognizes it as "QHSUSB_DLOAD". I can't remember how I fixed it before and I'm hoping someone can help me out with this. I would really appreciate it.

No offense but trying to root it would not get you hard bricked ...you had to have done something like flash a Rom so until you provide some actual info noone will help you

My bad, I wasn't thinking clearly. I happened while flashing ROM. I'm sending the phone in to get the motherboard replaced. No more replies needed but thanks anyways

I'm going to take a WAG and say you flashed IceColdJelly AOKP.
That's a rom for a different phone, the international version of the One X. There is a fix if you were on 1.85 firmware, but not if you were on 2.20.

I was rooting..........I mean flashing a ROM.............dignity can only be saved thru honesty..........and even then, its rare:beer:

I thought we had a couple of bricks already? This is 99.9% sure to return bricked devices to stock, and it needs to be tested on a brick.

Thanks Dlev7 . It should work...just hard to find gutsy people who made a boo-boo i guess .
yeah infuse buyers seem to be the cautious type, or the type that never modded a phone before. if i have an accident i promise to test for you, im not doing it on purpose though
If its just a stock package, why is a bricked phone required? Shouldn't any device work?

(roms)

Hello guys. Hey so I'm from the Samsung phone side of flashing and am not new to this. But i do have one question . What rom can I use and still be able to go back to stock? Im thinking that if I stay away from the 1.8 ruu stuff I'll be ok? And if I do how do we return to 100% stock . Thanks ahead of time for your insight and help
No one can answer
you need to root using the root method, then install a rom that is based on 1.72 whatever. If you want to go back stock, use the 1.72 ruu.
But if I try the newer 8 series then I'm stuck on that
Yes, you're stuck, until bootloader is unlocked.

any roms available
Hi,
I Have an Rogers HTC One x
Evita 1.73 ......
Bootloader Unlocked
Rooted and CWM install
I just followed JSLEnterprises method to debrand ...
now I have a clean HTC Vanilla XL .. as they say
Looking to try new Roms, are their any available that or compatible with my device, or I should I just patiently wait for flashable
why dont you visit the dev section and see for yourself?
didnt think CWM was working at all at the moment
Wow man chill i did and I just wanted clarification. And I never said I used cwm just talking about the ruu roms we have . Why is everyone so quick to flame and jump , some people like to be sure that's the case so they don't get in hole they cant get out of. Thanks for your concern but that's what forums are for to help each other
One of the devs just figured out how to downgrade

Well for one thing, don't use the 1.85 RUU that just got leaked today until root is regained for it. I'm running 1.82, though I'm hard pressed to find any improvement since I didn't have any problems beforehand (like the WiFi problems people were having on 1.73). Maybe a bit smoother? Idk.
That's my dilemma my phone runs great it has its moments but all in all good. But I like to tinker and its hard not to . I'm looking for some good reasons to and against . Any feedback is great thank you

I mean, some things might go wonky if you don't do a factory reset before and after flashing the 1.83 RUU and tried to root. I know that two people (one of them being me) lost our lock screen rings after running the root script for 1.83. Re-RUUing with wipes fixed everything.
Otherwise you really have nothing to lose by doing this besides maybe your warranty and whatever time you have to spend setting up your phone again (TiBu is a godsend)
I have paid for many apps.to save me time in the whole dev side. I have also.made a few eons for Samsung.infuse but never let them out because people are.crazy. I'm used to Samsung and all new to HTC

Stuck in bootloop

So, I'll admit that this is my first android phone and I'll admit that I didn't take a bunch of time to learn anything about what I needed to do before rooting and unlocking and flashing and everything else.
My problem is, I've unlocked my bootloader just fine and I rooted my phone just fine. The problem came when I found Android Revolution HD, from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562603, and wanted it. I didn't understand how to flash a new ROM or anything, but I went ahead and tried. I flashed several different boot images and recoveries so I don't even know where to begin. I flashed recovery-clockwork-5.8.4.0-endeavoru and tried to use the boot.img from the link I posted. Now I can't boot into recovery or restart my phone or even do a factory reset. I'm afraid that I messed everything up to the point where I need a new phone or something. I know I should have spent more time with this before diving into it, I was just excited. Is there anything I can do? I'm sorry if my problem is vague..

first of all, you flashed a ROM and recovery not meant for your phone. Our One X is a snapdragon based phone codenamed evita.
can you get to boot loader anymore?
if so relock it
then install the factory RUU that matches the version you had before, probably 1.85
then spend about 2 or 3 weeks reading the threads in OUR development section before you unlock the bootloader and flash anything else.

My friend, might I add you are very, very lucky you don't have a flagship phone that only gives you a reflection lol.

This mistake is very easy to make for someone who just bought a phone. I know that the credo at XDA is rtfm but the mods of the respective forums really ought to make the effort to make the distinction more obvious.
HTC and AT&T should have done that.
Seems pretty self explanatory to me.

Ahh, you are correct. Been on here so long haven't had to actually search for XDA on google.
One problem is when you search xda one XL in Google, the first link is actually the correct forum.... however right under that it lists:
HTC one x Q & A
HTC one x Themes and apps..
Etc etc...
↑↑↑↑↑↑—— if you click on those options it goes to the International threads.. once your in its very easy to go on not noticing your in international waters. Ive caught myself in wrong forums more than once when xda app acts up and I use a browser....

I know I made the same mistake in my first ROM flashing experience. And I even knew that ROMs for the International One X were incompatible! I just had no idea what "endeavoru" meant.
Since then, I've been keeping track of many HTC One X terms, which I highly recommend the original poster take a peek at.
HTC One XL Terminology Glossary
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1784459
Revolution HD seems to be a popular ROM for the International One X. Maybe they should explicitly note in the OP that it will likely brick an AT&T One X if flashed (if they don't already!)
This may also be a good thread to take a look at (if you don't feel bad enough already!)

You can only flash ROMS made for YOUR SPECIFIC MODEL. Just because it's a Galaxy S3 ROM doesn't mean it's okay on your phone. You need one for your specific version. I don't know what Criskelo is, but I have never head of it.
A quick search pulled up this:
Criskelo ROM for Rooted Galaxy S3 i9300!
If you want to know which ROM I am running on my Galaxy S3 GT-i9300 right now, it’s this Criskelo ROM. (PLEASE DO NOT FLASH THIS ROM ON U.S. or Canadian Galaxy S3s! PLEASE!)
If you did indeed flash an international ROM on your phone, it's probably a paper weight at this point. Go to mobiletechvideos and spend $60 to get it jtagged. Do some research before flashing next time.

I'm pretty sure most international roms make a dometic S3 completely unbootable. I don't think you can even boot into ODIN to flash anything. Looks like you've tried. I don't think a PIT file will help, especially if you can't make it into ODIN to flash.

So I bought a JIG whatever that is... do you think that I should wait for it to get here It seemed like in a video i watched it pulled up download mode immediately I'd hate to drop 60 bucks just to find out my 5 dollar fix would have worked.
Kylewiddz, that 32Gb PIT file previously mentioned was mine. Hate to break it to you, but it sounds like you'll need a JTAG to bring you back. If you wanna try the jig, sure, give it a shot. Even if it doesn't work, with this particular bork, they do work and they're nice to have around. Either way, Josh at the aforementioned MobileTechVideos.com is the bomb. $60 is better than buying a new phone (or committing fraud by taking it back for warranty). Good luck, buddy (make sure you learn something from this ).

The website looked really good, but the 60 dollar price tag is just enough to make me wait for the jig to get here. But if (most likely when) that doesn't work, they'll be gettin my business for sure. Moral of the story: I'm an idiot Thanks to everyone who helped

QHUSB-DLOAD mode cause flashed wrong ROM

Hello all,
I'v already seen alot of ppl with same problem as i have but didnt find any proper solution yet
I'v by mistake flashed IceColdJelly ROM on my HTC one x rogers, i know its a noobish mistake,
but i've learned to read carfully about what i'm flashing....
I know there is a way to flash the hboot back to a right partition using linux , while device is in emmc mode,
but i dont know which mmcblks it flashed to.
PLs if it possible someone can direct me with the right commands in linux and what files i need to replace.
i'll appreciate any help
Probably should have learned to read carefully before flashing huh...
I don't know the solution but if you actually search you'll find the answer. It's been covered already.
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium
we should make a thread in our forum called icecoldjelly with big letters saying not to flash it. noobs might see our thread first instead of the roms thread and end up not flashing it.
Dunno man.. can't really guard against ignorance can ya :banghead:

Thank for the supportive reply, but pls answer if you realy wishing to help .

the way to fix it properly is not for a noob. and no one is going to be able to baby you through it and if someone who has fixed it will do that for you. you need to work your ass to help others fix the same problem.
I really would like to help! I'v tried to work it out for long time and did alot of forum reading, but no success. I do understand that the wrong hboot need to be replaced from linux in some partition... i have some basic linux knwolege...but still dont know hot to see the partitions in emmc mode, and how/what files to dd.
