[Q] New to ONEX problem flashing clean rom 5.1 - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I downloaded rom put it in downloads folder on phone. Then I got into fastboot and flashed boot img and erased cache. Then I did a factory reset and flashed rom. First option is to run boot img, so the first time I tried install I didn't do it using aroma installer went through all the steps. Then I rebooted phone and it was stuck on HTC screen with no boot animation. It was just stuck. Went back to recovery and wiped then installed again this time using option to run boot img. Same thing happened witch was nothing. Any advice for a noob would be appreciated. :good:

Did you check the md5 of the zip? Sounds like it might be a bad download

No But i will I have never had that problem before.

Try to flash the rom with either option, the boot into bootloader to fastboot the boot.img.
On my cousins phone it won't take when I fastboot the boot.img first... It works 100% the time when I flash the rom first then do the boot.img... Try it out homie

Try taking the boot.IMG from the previous version and flashing via fastboot. Then do a clean install.

Its accepting it correctly with fast boot?

Rogers Onex do not require the ROM boot being done separately, our hboot allows such.
Unless you have a hboot higher then mine at 1.11?
If so disregard my post.

Which CM10 ROM did you flash? If you flashed the stable ROM, then the boot.img from that ROM should work fine. If one of the nightlies from around the first week of November, you'd have to flash a boot.img from an older nightly like 10/27. Needless to say, you should be flashing the stable or one of the more recent nightlies.
If coming from a non-CM10 ROM, you should do a full wipe i.e. factory reset, cache, dalvik. Then flash boot.img. Then wipe dalvik and cache again, then flash ROM via recovery.

Not sure if hboot is different, but I know Rogers users don't need to flash kernel separately.
OP: How long did you let it sit at the spinning circle? I have seen up to 5 minutes on first boot

Sorry, guess I wasn't clear enough in my post, I am using a Rogers XL on Hboot 1.11.
I was just trying to get op to see, there's no image flash required unless he somehow had a newer hboot then mine which I'm pretty sure is not possible on our Rogers XLs.

One more thing, I could not flash any kernel as well, it would stuck at some % forever, i checked SuperSu everything rooted and unlock..Don't know why

Are you on hboot 1.14? If so, the issue with not being able to flash kernels, etc. is normal. All you need to do is extract the boot.img from the rom or kernel you want to flash and flash it via fastboot or an app called "Flash Image GUI".

[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

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!

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.

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.

[Q] Stuck in bootcycle/no OS installed in TWRP

I have an HTC One S and recently tried putting a newer rom on my phone. That process has made my phone a paperweight.
I was using a really old ROM from my rooted HTC One and decided it was time to update as I was having a lot of issues with outdated software. Since i've tried installing several versions of TrickDroid onto my phone and all them failed me. I'm currently running S-off HTC One S with TWRP and I'm stuck in a vicious cycle of bootcycling from either the recovery, bootloader, or the logo. Whenever I leave TWRP it says that I don't have an OS installed, which is most likely why I hang at the logo and cycle through restarts. However, I'm adb pushing roms onto the phone and using the recovery install from zip to run the installers. I've followed that up with variations of flashing the boot in the bootloader with Fastboot flash boot boot.img or just trying to restart straight into my OS, but I can't.
I'm not really sure where to go from here.

So what happens when you try to install an OS via recovery?
Also what TWRP version do you use?

I use TWRP 2.6.0.0
When I try to use TWRP to recovery install I can successfully complete the installation, but once I leave recovery to restart I'm stuck in bootcycles.

Wipe data/factory reset, cache, dalvik and flashing boot.img before flashing ROM all good??
I see no other reason why it shouldn't boot up.

Yes, I can do all of those things. I eventually got back to an OS by using an RUU from my carrier. It could just be the trickydroid rom I'm trying to use or ALORA. I have no idea.

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.

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.

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.
