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!!

[Q] Bricked my HTC One S

Hi all,
Got mine today, tried to install a ROM and it got stuck in bootloop.
I did a number of stupid things not to mention wiping the SD and im in serious trouble.
I can get into bootloader and CWM but thats it.
Ive heard restoring a RUU can cure it but I have a MAC and cant find anything to help.
Can anyone help? Im gutted....and fell like an idiot.
Ive got an S4 on the three network.
Thanks
Hold down the power button for 10 seconds then after the touch buttons stop flashing, just hold the volume button and see if ot enters the bootloader.

Specifically you'll have to flash the ROM zip file from the recovery and then use fastboot flash boot boot.img.

Htc One S bricked
Hi im relatively new at rooting and am currently experiencing issues with a bricked device.
i have two htc one s devices
my personal one is running cm10 ville with clockwork touch recovery and is working perfectly
however the second one i was using the same exact files.
this one is bricked
its in a constant bootloop.
i can get back to my recovery just fine and get to the fastboot in the phone fine
i cleared my cache
wiped my data and wiped the dalvik cache all perfectly fine when i try to flash the cm10 official rom back on it cannot mount the sd card
i would try to install a different recovery and try again maybe using viper one s
but i cannot get the phone to power on
it doesnt showup on the computer when it is plugged in while in fastboot
when i try the cmd fastboot flash recovery it says waiting for device
any advice. this is not my own phone so i need it repaired pretty quickly.
any helpful information would be much appreciated.

Bootloop does not mean your bricked...means you need to fastboot flash boot.img

have i bricked my phone?

I had CM10 running, then I reflashed the 3.33 firmware because of problems with the phone. Now CM10 will start loading, but never finishes. Holding down power and volume down makes the phone go into a bootloop.

I can't get into the bootloader or recovery either with or without the SD card. Can't see any way to reflash =(
Have you tried pulling battery, put battery back in device, press volume down and power at the same time, then after it does it's thing press recovery, then press power for yes. This should bring you to boot loader, then you can wipe fully and restore your nandroid backup. If you don't have a back up, wipe fully and install a different rom. This should work in getting you into recovery.- if it does not work, I'm not sure what else to try. But do try this! It should allow you to get into recovery. Sorry your having this trouble. Hoping this helps. Best wishes.

Hi,

Phone won't boot after new ROM flash

I would post this in the Android Development section, but as I am new I will post here till then.
I am installing the new Viper 2.0 ROM, and after installing the ROM and rebooting for the first time the white screen with the green htc logo pops up and then the screen goes black. I'm worried I have bricked my phone and was wondering if there was any way to get it back to its original state.
Using CWM and came from Viper 1.2 ROM. I have made a CWM backup of the Viper 1.2 ROM before flashing.

I flashed Viper One S 2.0 and everything works absolutely flawlessly :laugh:
First of all, take TWRP instead of CWM. CWM hasn't been developed for the last six months. Then you have to do the following steps
1. Put Rom on SD card
2. Extract the Rom on your computer and put the boot.img in your fastboot folder
3. Boot into recovery
4. Wipe System
5. Instal Viper
6. Reboot into bootloader and flash boot.img with the command fastboot flash boot boot.img
7. Reboot again into recovery
8. Clean Cache and Dalvik
9. Boot into sytem and have fun with Viper One S 2.0:laugh:

I've tried that, I used cmd and the flash script both didnt work. It keeps trying to boot into recovery but just freezes.
Also another quick question: how long does it take to install the ROM? It takes less than a minute for the 'Reboot' button to appear yet it still says installing at the top of the screen.
Should I just keep waiting or has the install actually finished?
EDIT: it just says 'Executing Full Wipe' then it erases and formats the cache, system and data as EXT4

What do you mean by not work?
About a min but not used CWM in a long time because its buggy.
The time it takes to install a rom varies quite a lot. A dirty-flash (no wiping) seems to take a minute or two, but a full flash can take up to 5min.

AW: Phone won't boot after new ROM flash
Don't do a full wipe in the aroma menu. You did it before. The result would be that the installation is very fast but nothing is installed.
Boot your phone in the recovery, then wipe system, afterwards do a clean instal. In the aroma menu take the option Installation without wiping. The installation should now take a few minutes. And then follow my other points or take a good look in the op

After flashing CleanROM, won't boot up?

Hey, I'm in a problem here.
I just rooted my phone and unlocked the bootloader a few days ago. I wanted to flash CleanROM so I downloaded the large 500mb file from their official website and followed the instructions that were there (http://www.scottsroms.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=358).
I have TWRP Recovery installed and as I said, my bootloader is unlocked (using HTCdev). I connected my phone to my computer and set as disk drive so I can copy the zip file of the ROM to a folder named "ROMs" in my storage. I did that.
next, it told me to reboot to recovery, so I used the All in one tool (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1952426) to Reboot to Recovery. It did, and put me on TWRP.
The next instruction was to wipe data/factory reset. I did that. Then it told me to install the ROM. I hit the Install button in TWRP, navigated to the ROMs folder, and flashed the CleanROM 6 R2.zip file that I moved in there earlier.
It was a success and it had a button that would reboot system. I pressed it because the instructions on ScottRoms stated to do so.
It showed the standard HTC One logo with a white background but then nothing happens. I tried waiting a bit but nada.
I then proceeded to just hold the power button and then the 3 touch buttons on the phone (back, home, recent apps) lighted up and kept flashing. When it was done flashing, I hit the power button again and it would boot again to the same logo and just go black.
What's going on? Please, I turn to XDA because you guys are geniuses and really nice people, hope this is not a serious problem! I followed all instructions, btw.

What hboot are you on? 1.14 + need boot.img flashed via fastboot.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
To get into boot loader you have to hold power and volume down at the same time. When lights stop flashing release power but continue to hold volume down. You may have to flash boot image in fastboot depending on your hboot version. There are guides to do this in the stickies at the top. Also make sure you know the codename of your phone ie "Evita". Flashing the wrong ROM can be deadly.

For most roms you will have to manually flash the boot image. You can use flash gui to do this for you " available at the play store". Or you could s-off and flash away.

[Q] Can't get into recovery

Hey guys. For some odd reason I'm having issues with my AT&T HOX. I was running the Sense 5 rom and everything was running great. I was going to flash a battery % mod so, I held the power button down to get to the reboot menu to go into recovery. Well I accidently tapped the power off button instead of reboot. Crap! No problem, I thought. When I powered the phone back up again, the phone just sat on the HTC Quiet Brilliantly screen and wouldn't go any further. So, I held down the power button to force it to shut down, held the volume down key to go to the bootloader and then into TWRP. I couldn't get into TWRP. The phone would get to the TWRP splash screen and then reboot. But then it wouldn't even go back into android. It would just stay at the HTC screen. The only way I could get it into android was to RUU the phone. I flashed TWRP 2.3.3.0 on it via adb but now I still can't get into TWRP. The phone goes into a boot loop on the TWRP splash screen. I tried to do a fastboot wipe cache but that didn't help at all. Any suggestions?
You flashed recovery with adb..? You need to flash it with fastboot. Always check the md5 of your files to make sure they're good
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Haha, sorry, I meant fastboot. I flashed it with fastboot. When it didn't work the first time. I re-downloaded twrp and flashed it again. Same results.

Did you run the RUU? Which one? Running a RUU will restore stock recovery.
Also, the command is fastboot erase cache. Is that what you did?
Yes, I ran the AT&T 3.18 ruu. Don't worry I have s-off. The phone booted up fine after I ran the AT&T ruu. I then wanted to flash TWRP so I could install a different rom. I went to the bootloader and flashed TWRP 2.3.3.0. I flashed it with the OneX toolkit. I also did a fastboot erase cache when it didn't want to boot into TWRP. When I try to get into TWRP, it gets to the splash screen of TWRP, then the screen flashes for a second and it won't go any further. It keeps doing that until I force the phone to shut down. I am using the phone now but on 3.18 and I can't root it. I am stock. EWW!
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
I'm not a big fan of toolkits. They let you skip over learning things you really need to know.
Try downloading the twrp image, check the md5 to be sure it downloaded correctly, and flash in fastboot manually.
It's possible something isn't working right with the toolkit.

I'm not a big fan of toolkits. They let you skip over learning things you really need to know.
Try downloading the twrp image, check the md5 to be sure it downloaded correctly, and flash in fastboot manually.

Just a few minutes ago, I re-downloaded TWRP again and flashed it with fastboot flash recovery. It said it was successful but, it is still doing the same thing. TWRP acts like it wants to boot but it won't. It gets to the splash screen and then it will just blink on and off, on and off until I force the phone to shut off.
Dang I've never seen anyone have that problem so far... That's weird.. You're doing everything correct and you sound knowledgeable.... Have you tried different twrp versions? Maybe try goo manager...
And I'm not questioning your intelligence and mean no disrespect, but are you 100% its the Evita version of twrp?

Thanks man, haha, yeah I am 1000% sure it is an evita recovery. I thought about trying CWM just to see if the situation changes. Before I do that, I may try goo manager.
Yay!! I was able to flash CWM, get into it and flash SuperSU. I don't really care for CWM but at least i got SOMETHING to work. I may try TWRP again just to see if it will work.

Now that recovery is working again, you should be able to switch using goo manager.

I tried re-downloading from a different source and flashing TWRP 2.3.3.1 again....Fail. It does the same thing. Flashed CWM again, works like a charm. What the heck is going on??

I will try fastboot erase cache. No, I flashed it with fastboot flash recovery.
Edit: Still a no go with TWRP :/ I guess I'm sticking with CWM for now.

Hey guys. For some odd reason I'm having issues with my AT&T HOX. I was running the Sense 5 rom and everything was running great. I was going to flash a battery % mod so, I held the power button down to get to the reboot menu to go into recovery. Well I accidently tapped the power off button instead of reboot. Crap! No problem, I thought. When I powered the phone back up again, the phone just sat on the HTC Quiet Brilliantly screen and wouldn't go any further. So, I held down the power button to force it to shut down, held the volume down key to go to the bootloader and then into TWRP. I couldn't get into TWRP. The phone would get to the TWRP splash screen and then reboot. But then it wouldn't even go back into android. It would just stay at the HTC screen. The only way I could get it into android was to RUU the phone. I flashed TWRP 2.3.3.0 on it via adb but now I still can't get into TWRP. The phone goes into a boot loop on the TWRP splash screen. I tried to do a fastboot wipe cache but that didn't help at all. Any suggestions?

I would try Goo Manager, then give up if it doesn't work. CWM is okay for this phone now.
