Have you taken the stock JB update?
That upgrades something making non sense roms fail I think.
Not too sure exactly, but have read this somewhere and I'm in same position after taking JB 4.1 OTA before finding xda goodness.

Even if you've taken the 4.1 ota it will boot just no working touchscreen. Op is doing something wrong. Verify that you have a onexl and are flashing a ROM for the one xl then make sure to wipe cache, dalvik, system and do a factory reset in twrp. If you wipe system and are flashing a ROM for the wrong phone you will brick so make sure you have the right ROM and phone combo. After flashing the ROM boot to fastboot and fastboot flash your boot.IMG. if you do all that your ROM will boot.

Doesnt matter if you flash it before or after ...are you full wiping? Data system caches. .. and you're flashing thorugh Fastboot right Sith Fastboot flash boot boot.img ?

Similar problem
I've been having a similar problem but maybe even worse. After rooting my phone via onexroot.com tutorial I havent been able to install any custom roms. It says that the MD5 file is not found and "completes" the installation very quickly. I have tried the viper rom but i have tried the CM10 and AOKP JB. I have flashed boot.img via fastboot every time to no avail. Help please.I have ATT One X 2.20 hboot 1.14 twrp 2.4.1.0. Thanks.

Place boot image on phone but not in any folder so that GUI can see it not in one x root. Place full zip file in downloads folder on phone storage. Use GUI to flash image. After flashing it will go into recovery. Use TWRP to install zip. Make sure you wipe system, cache and davlik cache before installing zip.
Hope this helps.

So I downloaded the flash GUI program and followed the steps via the video (thanks for that, very helpful) but after flashing the kernel (boot IMG) and hitting the recovery reboot option it didn't reboot, it didn't do anything. So I did a manual reboot into recovery and installed the zips and rebooted. I got to the Rom initiating page (this one had a unicorn) and it didn't go any further. The only other info I could offer is that I went the lazy way and emailed the boot image to myself on my comp and downloaded to my phone via the email. Not sure if that makes a difference. Any more ideas, I'm gonna try the ice cold jelly Rom and the viper xl later today.
So I just tried the viper 3.2 Rom and although it seemed to get a little further in the process, result is the same: stuck on viper logo. Only ice cold jelly left. When transferring zip files over to phone do o have to mount via twrp or can I just mount as disk drive via stock rom? At this point, unrooting and waiting for att's official JB update may be my only option. Thanks in advance for any help.

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?

Hi There
I am just over begginner level, so I hope someone can help me!
I have a HTC Sensation
- It is rooted
- Bootloadeer is unlocked
- CWM recovery is flashed and working
I installed the ELEGANCIA custom rom to the phone and all was fine, apart from the WIFI was not working. In a stupid moment of madness, I flashed the stock kernel to the phone through the One X software.
So now, when I load the phone, I just get the white HTC screen and can go no further.
As previously stated, I can get into clockworkmod and fastboot etc.
I have the correct kernel package on my PC, but have no idea how to flash it with the phone in this state, or if indeed this will even work. I just want to get back to a working phone now
I do have access to another phone, so I can put zip files etc onto my SD card if that helps.
Is there a rom with the correct firmware/kernels built into it, so I can literally just install the rom through clockworkmod in recovery to overwrite the old kernels automatically.
Or can anyone give me advice on what to do now. Much appreciated in advance.
Thanks
Marc
ps I still have the ROM on my SD card for ELEGANCIA and it installs if I attempt to reinstall, but the kernel is incorrect I far as I understand, hence why it just goes to the white screen again. Do I just need to flash the correct kernel, if so where is it and how do I flash in this state. Ahhh, sorry its a new phone, been up until 5am!

Thanks for that, so I have the correct kernel in a zip folder, within the zip folder is loads of other things including radio etc, do I put this whole zip file on to my SD card? I tried that already and it just aborts when I try and run it in CWM during the install. Do I need to do anything to the kernel folder or add any image or something.

Did you extract the boot.img from the rom and flash through fastboot?

No, I did not. Basically once the ROM installed, if you have ever seen the One X all in one kit, I pressed (stupidly) flash stock kernel (I think it was 2.6.394) and then got the white screen. If I flash the boot image from the ROM, I will still have the incorrect kernel will I not? Or will that trigger the ZIP file on my SD card, which has the correct kernel? Sorry if I sound like a complete idiot, I have gone above my head on this!

One final question
Does this 4EXT automatically detect the custom kernel during the install.
"Follow through the steps and when it asks you to install a custom kernel it would be preferable to select YES, when Installing stock Kernel it is possible you will have Wifi problems. (see Step 3) "
The example it gives is for the Android Revolution HD . Is the firmware different from the stock kernel?
I am just confused with what I done on the One X software, I just clicked 'flash stock kernel' or should I not worry about this?

If You enable smartflash that will take care of it..
And the line you quoted is obsolete.. The smartflash will work for any kernel.. And it won't break wifi (even if it breaks the wifi it can be fixed)

Thank you so much, I will get on it when I finish work.
Just for final clarification, have you ever used/seen the HTC one X toolkit software? The button I pressed, which said 'flash stock kernel' which is what caused me the problems.
Are you saying that following the guide fully and enabling the smart on the 4ext recovery will reverse whatever this done and rewrite the kernel from the ROM, without me having to do anything else? I won't for example have to download and flash a new kernel to get HTC evolution HD (the one given in the example) to work?
I just fear that the fact I have already rewritten to stock kernel using this one X toolkit means problems? But if following the guide corrects this, then great. Hope that makes sense.

Especially for people who rooted their phones recently using X-Factor root exploit
"If you have the newer HBOOT 1.14 (you probably do if coming from stock 2.20), boot.img's will have to be flashed separately via fastboot. Extract the boot.img from you ROM zip of choice and put it in the same directory as fastboot. Reboot your device into boot loader and run "'fastboot flash boot boot.img' (no quotes)
You can then flash the ROM" - thanks to

"if you are flashing similar ROMs ( having same kernel ).. there is no need to flash boot.img separately. But say if you wanna switch from sense to aosp you must do that as they have different kernels.
Again if you are just upgrading from older version to newer version of same ROM and if there are no kernel changes no need to flash it" (thanks kancherlapraneeth)

However, the phone continues to be in a boot loop even after the restore.
Did I miss any steps in the restore process for TWRP?
ViperX isn't for you phone. Your lucky you can get back into twrp. You need to flash your boot.img backup in fastboot.
For people trying to flash the style backup and can't find the boot.img you should be able to fastboot boot.emmc.win just as a normal boot.img.

What do you mean with "version"
Look under settings->phone information or sth like that. Latest official version for the one s is android 4.1.1.
If you mean which model, check how your CPU frequency is, 1,7ghz is the C2/S3, 1,5ghz is the C1/S4.
If you want android 4.2.2 flash a custom recovery and follow the instruction for flashing a custom rom (cm10.1), you will find it in the development section

Flash the Boot.IMG via fastboot ("fastboot flash boot boot.img" there are flashing guides in the forum)
Clear dalvik cache
Flash the rom and everything should work fine
Good luck

I don't see any boot.img inside the zip file?
I am reading all you do is extract the zip, but I don't see the boot.img once that is done? Help please.

Sry my fault, didnt read the thread carefully, you dont need the boot.img
You cam flash the Rom the usual way

So wipe it twice, then install from zip? That's it?

Hi all, I just wanted to start by saying that xda is the shizz and has helped me through thick n thin. Anywho, I have a custom Rom and am trying to go to a different Rom. ViperX to be specific. I've tried before, but with little success. Extracted boot.img, fastboot flash boot boot.img in the command, put the Rom on my sd and installed via TWRP. Problem is, is that it never boots, only the HTC boot screen with the red writing. Anyone have any suggestions on what I need to do? I'm still S-on, but from what I understand, that doesn't matter if you fastboot the boot.img via command prompt. I also have Hboot 1.14.
Thanks.

Because you are S-ON with hboot 1.14 you ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS need to fastboot flash boot boot.img from the rom you are flashing.
That being said, Sounds like you are on TWRP 2.4.x please confirm.
If so, fastboot flash twrp 2.3.x.x
then fastboot erase cache
then wipe cache, dalvik, system, factory reset
Install rom and fastboot flash boot boot.img
Keep me posted.

Apparently there's a TWRP 2.4.4 out, would it hurt me to flash the latest version?
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda app-developers app
Yes. It would hurt anyone with a one xl as 2.4 does not wipe our device properly. I tested 2.4.4 myself.

ok, well I found another problem you might be able to help me with, but I'll shoot it to you anyway. I just found out my phone was originally a One X when I got it from the ATT store. Now apparently after I flashed the Rom I got (odex-JB-Sense4+.zip), It's saying my phone is an XL. Seems to me I have a whole new set of issues. Did I flash the wrong Rom? I though I did enough research to find a compatible Rom. How do I find out for sure what's going on with my phone and how to fix it properly?

No problem you have the correct ROM, if you had flashed wrong one it would have not worked correctly. Depending on the ROM sometimes it will show XL instead of X.
One xl is the proper model name, code named Evita, not to be confused with the real HTC One X international quad core version.
So in other words, nothing is wrong. This is normal. If you flashed the wrong rom you would know as you would now have a paperweight

ok cool, I was kinda confused there for a sec lol. Ok, now for the TWRP. I'm assuming you were referring to 2.3.0.0? just because there is a 2.3.0.0, 2.3.1.0, 2.3.3.0, and a 2.3.3.1. I just want to make sure I have the correct one for Hboot 1.14
Doesn't matter which one. I use 2.3.3.1 myself.

You have an xl so be sure to download and flash ViperXL and not ViperX. Luckily Viper does a model check before it installs.

ok, downloading it now. I'll keep you updated.

Except for ViperXL (and old builds of CleanROM, which may also happen with future builds if/when scrosler gets AROMA back in there) which is intended to flash the boot.img in AROMA.
Although, it doesn't always work for some folks, so they have had to flash boot.img manually. So yes, if at all in doubt (and you have a boot loop) flash boot.img manually.
