But, then something happened, i have no idea what went wrong, and my x8 just shut down after the unlocking complete, and ever since then it's unable to power on. It's like it completely dead.
i know i have done it, it's unlock successfully.
Is this still considering bricked? or that it's fxxk, and now it's dead.!? im so frustrated right now, that i don't know what to do and how i can able to rescue my phone. Because according to the guide [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011071 ] i found on this forum, my x8 seems to be the worst case here. cause most of people said that their phone still able to power on, but, just stop at the SE logo. And my doesn't charge or no response at all. byw ,the guide above, i can't download the rom. link doesn't work or something.
please, anybody have any idea,what went wrong, and how can i fix it?
please help me. i dont know what to do with this cell... anyhow i managed to get it into this screen...
it would keep restarting after displaying htc quietly brilliant.
i have no idea what was done to this cell as i got it lying around in my closet.
What do you mean you got it lying around in my closet? You don't know what you did to it in the past?

Well I think the first thing you should do is talk to your cousin and find out exactly what he did to the device, then you can report back here.

is there any other way through which we can come to know what can be done??? such as an odin thing which i used to do in my samsung note 1 or 3???

To know what needs to be done I need to know the history of the device. Odin is Samsung only, there is no HTC equivalent. Who got the phone to this point, you or your cousin? You need to find out what he's done.

Well, one problem is that the screen is cracked.
Seriously though, the phone for some reason or other cannot load into the OS, and is stuck in bootloader. Other than that, not much else can be determined if you don't know the history of what was done.

Nope. You need to know the history of the device. There is an HTC-specific recovery utility. But running it on a device with unknown history can brick the phone permanently. Particularly since the device is definitely tampered (as shown on the first line of the screen).
Also, the phone's IMEI is personal information, and should not be posted on the internet. You should edit the photo to hide the IMEI.
Unlock your bootloader. Sometimes if you have custom installed or fragments of a custom ROM on the device it will boot directly into your bootloader. After unlocking your bootloader you can install a recovery image and sideload a ROM.
yes i asked my brother and he is saying he doesnt remember what he had done to it... if anyone can show me a way to do something ill try it... or else should i take it to some shop to get it fixed.... which would cost me... but first i wanted to get my hands over d expert advise of u all
Return the phone to stock and never let your brother touch any electronic device of yours again.

This phone is in a dangerous state.. Running the RUU in this state could brick the phone (make it permanantly unusable without a jtag). Though typically that is how one would return a phone to stock.. to be honest, the safest thing to do would be to unlock the bootloader, flash a rom, S-OFF and then return it to stock. If these seem like foreign terms to you, you have a lot of reading to do. Your phone is in a tough spot right now ESPECIALLY not knowing the history regarding what was done. You would need the bootloader unlock token to reunlock that phone if you don't have it, there's very little chance of safely returning that phone to stock.

Brother or cousin, or both? It seems you don't even know who has been messing with your phone. And the person(s) messing with it don't have a clue what they are doing. So its no wonder the phone is in the state it is.
Agree with above that RUU is risky. Better to s-off the phone first.
Thank u all for the prompt replies, I have played with Samsung but not with HTC. But I can try to unlock the bootloader n turn d s-off. Can I get an step guide for HTC. The thing was I have many cellphone that I buy and use it very rarely. Majority I use is my note 3.

There are detailed instructions available at htcdev for unlocking your bootloader. Once you've done that you need to flash a custom recovery, then you can flash root, then you can get s-off. Check my How-To Guide For Beginners thread, the link is in my signature.

Every device manufaccturer/model has different root methods. If you want to root the phone, you have to put the time in to learn the correct process. There is no shortcut. You won't find a step-by-step guide for the entire process, because of the different carrier version and firmware updates (root method, etc. differs for each). But all the resources you need are sticky at the top of either this Q&A forum section, or General section.
hi i tried to get to unlock the bootloader from the HTCDEV site. first of all the HTC ONE X wasnt on the list so i selected other supported devices
then followed the steps and got the following error
Error Code: 160.
Error Reason: MID Not Allowed.
now what does this mean??
That means you have the original CID still, which means you should be able to run the 3.18 RUU without any problems. Check your CID by issuing this fastboot command:
Code:
fastboot oem readcid
Sent from my Evita
yes i had issued this command after finding it in one of the websites and this was the result which i got
cid: CWS__001
or cid: c??__001
i forgot the exact two letter after C. i think it was CWS
You have the original at&t CID. That means you can run the 3.18 RUU without having to unlock the bootloader and get s-off first.

Hello guys I have spent like a day to review all the forums for android phones and couldn't find any solution how to root my old sensation that has MB replaced. I cannot unlock the bootloader. I tried many things. I want to install cynogenmod kitkat 4.4. I'm in the edge to brake this phone. Any of you managed with that issue?
Thanks in advance.

I can't do that. It is impossible. I'm trying it for 3 nights so far, no luck. Guides are incomplete, don't know the right files. Everywhere the bootloader unlock is as prerequisite. How to unlock the f**** HTC. I will never buy again anything with no Google logo on it. Replaced mobo and you are ****ed.

Hi, im new to this website and I need some help fixing my major screwup. I thought I could install TrueAncestor 2.3.7 and it put me on bootloop. I read a post on here suggesting I flash a relock bootloader ftf file (bootloader was already locked) and so I did and it didn't do anything! :crying: I have 15 bucks in the bank so this is my only phone for a long time! If anyone can answer me to whether this is fixable and give stupid me steps on how to fix his phone he shouldn't have modified , I'd appreciate it a lot! Thank you.
Hi guys
i just received it.. i found some informations on How to root but i'd love to be sure before
Which one of the different methods is the best?
thank you so much !
P.S. will i really lose the " black gold " theme once i root??
OK i reply to myself
i followed this steps:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56004439&postcount=1
just be careful if you copy and paste FASTBOOT commands.. there is a mistake the right command is :
adb reboot-bootloader ( and not bootlader as reported.. for type mistake )
to receive your UNLOCK CODE u need your imei and serial number and input this info here:
http://en.club.vmall.com/emotiondownload.php?mod=unlock&action=pre
TO GET PRODUCT ID you must download Huawei product ID generator here:
http://d-h.st/10o
everything worked just perfectly
if anyone else need info, ask me !

After days of trying to root w/o unlocking boot loader that resulted to a failure cuz my device is not vulnerable. I decided to root it the old fashioned way. I'm new to rooting and didn't understand some of the instructions written on the guides. I was forced to look into every other guides on the net to make me understand. Some has Chinese some I don't know so when I got to finally root my HAM7 I was so happy. I may make a video of this and compile the files I used to make the rooting to help others who like me, doesn't want to ask around until something goes wrong.
Looking forward knowing this way..I tried everything too but still no luck rooting my international gold edition ..don't want to unlock bootloader either.
