[Q] Recovery wont start - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Okay so I was on cleanROM and everything was great. Until I tried to go into recovery using quickboot and it wouldn't go through. At the time I had Clockworkmod touch recovery so I switch to TWRP thinking it would fix it. I've pretty much tried to flash every recovery for the evita with no luck. It would go to HTC then the recovery logo. Then it would just reboot again and the same thing. I can go into bootloader and fastboot but recovery and the ROM won't boot. I don't know whats exactly wrong or what to do. Please help
HTC Evita S-OFF
HBoot 1.09. 0000
Please help quickly, I have to call my virtualschool teacher soon and if I don't then I'll get kicked from the class. >3<
Thank you for future help forum.

Are you placing the image for the recovery in the working adb folder?

You can use every bootloader with every recovery.
You just need s-off to flash a custom recovery.

So... I have a S-on Desire S unlocked with HTCdev, rooted with superoneclick but I can not get the 4EXT recovery working. App is installed and all my partitions are ext4.
I get the red triangle when I go in to Recovery but I even haven't flashed anything. Just trying to make a backup first.
Is there anything else I have to do to get the recovery working ?
Try flash recovery in fastboot. 100% need to work then

OK. I uninstalled 4EXT and flashed the recovery image with adb / fastboot.
Now I have a recovery indeed. Thanks man...

yes, all the drivers are installed correctly. when I connect the phone to pc and click on fast boot, fastboot use is in red color. as you told "try flashing recovery", I was trying it once again. But, no use.
Do u get any error while flashing recovery or it says flashing successfull.
If you cnt flash recovery all you left is to do soff so you can flash any recovery and flash the Rom
And if everything fails then you will hve to flash a RUU

[Q] HTC One XL - Telstra

Hi All,
I am fairly new to all this, I have read countless posts and done everything I can but I am stuck.
I have a HBOOT 2.14 currently with S-ON.
I have installed TWRP in recovery but no custom mods work due to the HBOOT version.
SuperCID is 111111111 and is already set.
I want to be able to S-OFF my device so i can downgrade the HBOOT and use the custom roms.
I ran through the facepalm S-OFF procedure, it all runs correctly, although upon reboot it still says S-ON.
Does anyone know why this would be? Is there something I am missing?
I am doing this some the TWRP recovery mode as that is the only place I can access adb commands currently.
There is no working ROM currently installed, CM 10.1 is installed although it can't be used because the touchscreen doesn't work.
Any information people can provide me to get all this working would be of great help.
Happy to donate/pay someone to help me via teamviewer or whatever.
Thanks,
Tabmowtez

I have heard that 2.3.3.1 works better for your hboot and you can also downgrade your touch panel firmware and get cm to work.

Yes that's the one I posted, it still requires S-OFF.
It seems all the fixes need S-OFF and that is the one thing I can't seem to get working as there is no ROM installed so I can't use supersu?

I will download ViperX3.4.0.zip and use the boot.img to flash it from adb and see how it goes.
I have tried AOSP and CM Roms and all have had the same issue of the TP not working though.
I'll see how this goes.
Just to confirm, it seems all ROMS based off of the 3.17 kernel and higher work with S-ON.
I have the HatkaXL-evita-v4.2.5_Sense5Elements ROM working after I did the following steps:
Place boot.img in sdk platform tools folder
Boot phone into fastboot usb
open your command prompt from the sdk files folder. (shift+right click-select open command window)
type: fastboot erase cache
type: fastboot flash boot boot.img
type: fastboot erase cache (just to be safe)
On phone select bootloader, then recovery.
Once TWRP loads (I'm using 2.4.4.0) go to wipe and select factory reset then wipe system and both caches
Then install the rom and go through setup
once setup is complete, UNCHECK restart now so it leaves the rom and goes back to TWRP.
Click on clear cache/davlik and then click reboot
Settings application keeps on crashing so I am going to try the aokp_evita_jb-mr1_build-4 ROM now after a backup.
I still have issues getting adb to recognise the device once the ROM is booted but that's a separate issue for now...
Are you sure your getting error 92 and not 99 when you flash the zip for s-off cause if your getting 99 you need to fastboot write your cid then reboot and try again
Sent from my One X using Xparent Green Tapatalk 2
I'm definitely getting the error 92. My CID is already a SuperCID so would I have to do that again?
I have the ViperX ROM running now so I am happy, would still like to S-OFF though so I can try CM etc. after a hboot downgrade.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
When I did the s-off to my One XL, the error 92 is normal and I just followed the steps in this thread and it worked fine
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155071
That is the same thread I follow, I will try again now that I have a working ROM and see how it goes.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
All good, I successfully S-OFF'd my device and downgraded my hboot to 1.09. Hopefully this means I can put any mod on now without flashing from fastboot first and having the touchscreen work!

[Q] Stupid Mistakes :/

Hey everyone!
I was trying to flash cm10.1 from ViperXL and did not do my research properly and I ended up flashing the boot.img and now I am unable to go into android now (I'm stuck on the Viper XL boot screen) I found how to properly flash cm10.1 by turning s-off but I cannot complete step 7 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155071) since I cannot boot into Android and in the terminal it says "error: device not found". Is there any options of what I can do? Any fixes? Thanks
Why don't you just wipe and flash Viper again?

[Q] ATT htc one xl Suddenly gets stuck in boot loop after restarting phone

Hey Guys,
This is my first post, so excuse me if I sound like I don't know what I'm talking about.
a few days ago i tried to connect to my wifi at home and it was not picking it up although i was inside my own house. so i thought i should restart my phone. well after trying to restart it it got stuck in a boot loop. it would load the htc screen then start loading the venom logo then it shuts off and reboots the htc screen. i tried installing the back up, re installing the latest venom rom and even trying to put on a entire new rom but nothing has worked(it wont even let me install a new rom it errors out when i try) i doubt you will even get this but its my last effort Ive spent the entire day and all night looking for some way to fix this but i have yet to find anything. please if anyone one has any know how about this i could really used the help. i rooted my att htc one xl(evita) about 7 months ago using the method from onexroot.com and have never had an issue with this phone till now.
when i try to install a new rom via twerp it said install failed, im really stuck with this and could use some help thanks in advance.
just incase its not clear the phone is rooted running a custom rom(team venom) and im using twerp as my recovery program
evita pvt ship s-on rl
hboot-1.14.0002
radio-0.19as.32.09.11_2
opendep-v29.1.0.45.0622

flash twrp 2.6 advanced wipe everything except sd card, reflash.
also since youre s-on you have to extract the boot.img from the rom zip and flash it with fastboot after flashing most roms. should not be the case with viper but i would do it anyway if vier doesn't boot after the above steps.

Try running an RUU. This fault (or at least a very similar fault) happened with my fiance's phone and now there's only one ROM that will boot on it (an old build of cm10.1). You may be facing a hardware fault (that's what's wrong my fiance's phone), but I'd suggest running an RUU to see if that helps.

You might brick if you ruu, I would try flashing other roms first. Make sure to check the md5 to make sure that the download isn't corrupt.
But
If you must ruu make sure it isn't 3.18. And you will have to change your cid back and relock.
Fastboot oem writecid CWS__001
To change your cid back.
If you ruu, you cannot ever the the 3.18+ ota until you reroot and achieve s-off

For any rom you ever flash always follow the steps I layer out in my earlier post. It will not be different for any rom.
