I'd recommend installing the all-in-one tool on your pc. Makes flashing a lot easier and will allow you to flash twrp

easiest way to install twrp is thru goo manager
After installing fastboot on your pc did you execute fastboot-windows.exe while your One S was connected?

Which recovery did you flash?
Depending on what you've already tried, we can get you back just need to know where you are.
I pushed cwm and twrp using flashboot and everytime i cant mount the sdcard is there any way to flash to stock using flashboot or bootloader

yes. relock your bootloader
from bootloader type fastboot oem lock
then you can flash the 1.85 RUU
just run the file from windows.
After that you can unlock with the same unlock token you got when you unlocked in the first place
then you can install recovery again
but the ruu requires the phone to be on and usb debugging on

You can find a link to the drivers in the first post in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709424
Once you have them installed you'll have to reboot in to fastboot and install the official 1.85 RUU.
Also so you know I had a similar experience when I was on cleanrom 2.6 and tried to format and go to 3.0. I had to relock the bootloader, RUU to stock and install a different rom cause 3.0 would just never install for me for whatever reason, it would always bootloop back in to recovery. However I had backed up my NANDROID to my PC so I copied it back over to my SD card after I was on stock then restored it then did an in-place upgrade to 3.1 which worked. I was able to install cleanrom 4 after a wipe without issue.
Hello all I'm new at this but every time i try to flash com recovery my phone freezes in fastboot usb mode or I get a message in cmd saying "failed remote disabled or something to that effect. Please help I'm getting frustrated. I've waited how long to be able to root this phone and I cannot. I have the boot loader unlocked am I missing something? Also have USB debugging on. So my question is how can I flash recovery without freezing or the like.
you need to do some reading ... CWM you should avoid like the plague install TWRP

Do you have the recovery image in the same directory as fastboot.exe and use the command

Disclaimer: I am a noob!:cyclops: Wont understand jargon.
I tried rooting my HTC device and went through all the instructions as given by an youtube video. 'HTC One X - Root (in-depth)' by 'itvraag'
(I understand no links allowed till 10 posts but this might be an emergency! )
I am stuck at the Recovery section and am unable to get beyond the Recovery mode (screen).
The video says the next step is installing from the .zip file which I have downloaded onto my sd card.
I have got a bootloader screen which says 'Tampered' at the top. So, I guess, its not yet rooted?
I would appreciate solutions.
Thank you!:highfive:
p.s. The phone restarts in the normal At&T mode when done so and hence, its working as in stock.
I would be interested in

This is the One S thread. Anyways, at bootloader, where it says tampered, it should also say unlocked. There is also recovery as an option in the menu. Have you flashed a custom recovery yet? If so, select recovery and use power button to select it and boot into your custom recovery. If not, select fastboot, and flash a custom recovery.

I tried to do both i.e. the Fastboot to flash a custom recovery and again into the recovery mode. I get the same HTC screen and am unable to go further.
Are there any other ways?

It means you are following a retarded guide. Im sure theres a real guide in the X forums, just like we have here in the S forums.
Dont follow crappy youtube vids.

Ok guys im pretty new here and im not sure weather this is the right spot to post this.
Anyway, i think i messed up. after rooting my phone successfully and proceeded to install cyanogenmod on it. how ever i saw a guide that said nothing about installing a backup program like clockwork mod.
So now i have a phone that when turned on will only go to the htc boot screen and stay there. or when i press the volume and power button it will go to the HBOOT? (white screen with colored writing that) screen.
What do i do??

Install twrp 2.6 for the evita...
Fastboot flash recovery "filename.img" then fastboot erase cache
Then reboot into bootloader and select recovery.
Now you can flash a rom
Don't flash anything other than what you find in this forum or you will brick your phone. If unsure about what your flashing post the complete filename and someone here can verify it's for your phone.

yeah that's correct. i should have watched more guides my bad. Anyway can someone link me a download/ guide link to this TWRP thing
There isn't really a guide, you can just download it here. Put it in your fastboot folder and issue the following commands:
fastboot flash recovery "filename.img"
(Whatever the exact recovery filename is)
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you can select recovery from your phone screen.
It seems to me that you're in way over your head with this stuff though. You need to do a lot more reading before you really do anything. Check out this guide. Everything you really need is listed there.
