Hi everyone.
I have a TMOUS HTC One S (S4, mentioning because of some crazy people). I tried to install CyanogenMod 10 on it, but it fails. It just starts the splash screen.
Normally, I would flash an RUU, but now, the CID is HTC__001, and the Modelid PJ4011000. I am not allowed to install both European ROM and the stock TMOUS one. Oh, and to make things worse, it is relocked. Can someone help me, please???

Unlock it, install custom recovery if you dont have it already, reflash the rom, fastboot flash the boot.img and it should start just fine.
Remember to wipe /system/, /data/, cache and dalvik-cache. Edit: Before you flash the rom, obviously.

Seems no one knows how to read any more... I'm pretty sure all ROM pages say flash boot.IMG... All these ROMs on this site flash and boot just fine if you follow directions...

Thank you all you guy's help!!! Yes, I did it by watching a video online(noob!!!), and followed your hints. Thanks!!! 10 thank to you.

Re install twrp recovery.IMG with fast boot. Flash boot.IMG with fast boot.. Then wipe everything including SD card... Mount phone to PC with twrp and copy ROM to phone.. Flash ROM and wipe both caches again...

Sorry for the noob question, but this isn't my phone. I'm trying to flash ROMs on my buddy's Doubleshot using TWRP. I use this recovery on my Hercules every day, so I'm very familiar with it. I try to flash using the standard procedure (wipe, install zip, reboot) and when I reboot, it just hangs. I tried wiping cache and it still hangs. Is there something else I could have missed? I've tried several different ROMs.
Is he S-On? If so you will need to fastboot flash the boot.img!

So even if I already have a custom recovery installed, I still have to install via fastboot if it's S-ON? Actually, I think I may have seen that somewhere...I may have more reading to do.
EDIT: Yes, I found it. No more replies needed (for now!)
Pls can anyone help me with link for superwipe script for mt4gs

I have an AT&T One XL and have had problems recently. I unlocked my bootloader last year on the 2.20 firmware, which is how the phone came. I was able to flash ROMs no problem. About 3 weeks ago I decided to go S-Off with the whole thing. The S-Off was successful, I immediately flashed a new splashscreen and it is confirmed in bootloader that I am S-off. Last week I tried to flash the stable CM10 build, but it was unsuccessful. I found that the only ROMs I am able to flash are Sense ROMs 4.1.1 and above, or AOSP ROMs that are 4.2.x or above. I am on hboot 1.14 and I am very confused as to why I cannot flash properly. I am on TWRP 2.4.1.0, but have used various recoveries trying to solve the problem. I have also RUU'd trying to fix the problem, but to no avail. Any help would be much appreciated!
Twrp 2.4 has issues with wiping properly. Have you tried a different version or wiping with adb in fastboot?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
From what I understand twrp 2.4.1 should be working but I would flash 2.3.x just in case, then do fastboot erase cache. Then wipe cache, dalvik, system, factory reset.
If you RUUd and are s-off why are you still on 1.14? You may as well go up to 2.14 then downgrade touchscreen to use AOSP. Super easy.
Since S-OFF is just a security flag, I am 100% sure it's not the cause of your issue.

As a question, what is the difference between wiping cache in recovery and the fastboot command?
Downgrade twrp to 2.3.3.1
Sent from the HOXL dimension of S-OFF
The fastboot command wipes a cache related to the recovery. Wiping cache in recovery wipes a cache relating to the rom.

So I wiped cache via fastboot, and flashed the ROM like i normally would (wipe everything in recovery), but nothing has changed. I still get hung up on the splashscreen when trying to boot the new ROM. ViperXL boots fine when I restore my NANDroid backup, though.
Did you try flashing the boot.img after? You're still on hboot 1.14 afterall. I haven't seen first hand if you can skip flashing the boot.img with s-off, in your case, it seems not.

Even without flashing the boot.img, it should go past the splashscreen to the boot animation, am I wrong?

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.

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.

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.
Okay so Im trying to install miui v5 but im having isuues getting it to boot...again. ok so when v4 3.2.22 first came out I couldnt get it to boot. I would install the rom, then gapps and could not get it to boot past the optimizing apps screen. it would just stay at starting apps. I was told by another user to flash rohans kernel version b5 as that has worked for him on a different rom, and it worked for me. Now trying to install V5 its been a nightmare. when just installing the rom, then gapps I could not get it to boot past the splash screen. it would load it for a second then just go to a black screen. I then tried installing rohans kernel version b5 but now I get stuck at the starting apps screen I tried wiping cache and dalvik and that did nothing. tried installing different kernels and most I tried wouldnt let me get past the boot animaion Im using twrp 2.3.1.0, Im s-off and I even tried lowering my hboot from 1.14 to 1.09 just incase that might be it but nope. im no sure what else to do and help would be greatly appreciated

redownloaded 3 times. erased cache. wiped everything and same problem as before loads splash screen then back screen
Redownloading != checking md5 you could Redownload 500 times and all 500 downloads could have corruption of some sort.
You did fastboot erase cache?
If you're positive your download is good and after fastboot erase cache and wiping everything isn't working. Your last step is to s-off if you're not already and ruu to the latest version then flash twrp then wipe everything then flash the rom.

Search MD5 Sum Checker. It's a program that is pretty self explanatory and will check it for you. The MD5 is attached to the download. You copy it from the site and past it in the checker.
And after you s-off you don't need to re lock to ruu so you won't lose bootloader unlock

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.

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.
Please press the thanks button if I helped!

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.
