[Q] Bootloop - Need help finding RUU! - HTC One S

Hello, recently unlocked the bootloader, rooted, everything was great!
Today I decided to try and flash a rom, all didn't go as planned.. Did a full wipe, then installed the zip, tried to boot, stuck in bootloop. I followed posts that recommended wiping and so on, so I did. I later found out I needed to flash the boot.img to make the rom work, whoops..
Anyway, too late now. Everything is wiped. I still have access to the TWRP Recovery (is that how it's spelled?) and Bootloader. I'm going to use Ruu to fix it. My problem is I can't find the right one for my phone, and I want to make sure I have to right one before I relock my bootloader.
Here are my details;
version: 0.5
version-bootloader: 2.13.0000

Just removed imei and serial, fairly sure I shouldn't be sharing those!
Can anyone please help me?

You said you wiped everything. If that means EVERYTHING including system, mass storage , ..., then RUU would be the way to go.
But! If you still have the rom flashed (the ome that bootloops), you could try booting the phone into bootloader, going into fastboot mode and flashing the boot.img using your PC. That is, if you didnt wipe the system partition yet (after flashing the bootlooping rom). I believe it doesnt really matter whether you flash the boot.img before or after the ROM. Just be sure to wipe cache and dalvik between rom and kernel (the boot.img) flashes.

If you say there are no RUUs for H3G, you should change your CID (aka unbranding) to the international EU cid and then you can use those RUUs.

[Q] Stuck on boot after Rom toolbox

Hello,
I was playing around with my phone yesterday, and I believe that I changed the theme or the boot logo via the rom toolkit application (bad idea). The result was that when I next went to reboot the phone just hung on the logo screen.
Unfortunately I did not have a nandroid backup in place so I cannot just revert back.
I have attempted to use previous backups which I have had via recovery mode however they do not resolve the situation. I have also tried to install a new ROM from scratch however that didn't work either.
I was wondering whether the phone is recoverable, and if so, what I need to do to bring it back to life?
My phone is rooted and is S-OFF - I previously had Android Revolution HD as the operating system.
Thanks in advance.
In my opinion best thing is to superwipe then install fresh ROM.

Hey,
I've used superwipe and tried a couple of ROMS but I have been unable to get anywhere. When I use Android Revolution HD it hangs on the boot screen - all the other operating systems just boot loop on me.

Just like I didn't know how I broke it, I seem to have fixed it in a similar fashion.
I installed a new PG58img and loaded a backup I had and all seemed to work again.
The only kind of weird thing over there is the stock bootloader.. Which with the PG58IMG you've used.. Has kind of replaced it and started working fine... But having stock should not cause you problem either... Anyways firmware reflash fixed it

This is Dev Section, not Q&A Section. You have opened the thread in the wrong section. I've asked a moderator to move it. Please try to read forum rules, this is how we can keep it well structured and helpful for others.
Now, related to your issue, flashing a ROM shouldn't have anything to do with your CID. You should be able to flash any ROM that's made for 2.15 hboot.
Where do you get problems? When flashing the ROM or after that because it's not booting? You didn't detail the steps you do when flashing also you didn't specified any errors so I presume ROM is flashing OK and you have phone stuck on boot logo or animation after that (correct me if I'm wrong). Well this it's mainly because of your S-On flag. You MUST flash separately in fastboot the ROMs kernel after each ROM you flash in recovery, or else it won't boot

MaximusHD is a 2.16 hboot ROM. You shouldn't flash it and run on 2.15. So that's why you have issues with it.
Viper or CM11 are OK to flash on your hboot but as I said you MUST flash the kernel in fastboot AFTER you flash the ROM in recovery. Did you do that?
To flash kernel in fastboot, you must extract boot.img from the ROM zip, place it on your PC. Then after flashing ROM, reboot to bootloader, connect your USB and go to FASTBOOT. You should see FASTBOOT USB on screen. Then issue from a command prompt opened in the location of you ADB comand the following: fastboot flash boot boot.img
Have you done that? If not, ROM won't boot

Don't forget to do this after each ROM flash. Since you're S-On, kernel partition is not writeable in recovery, only in fastboot

Now , I wanted to root my HTC one X , I download Philz touch Recovery , But Instead of Flashing it as a recovery image, i flashed it as a boot image , So when i turn the phone on , it just goes to the philz Recovery Automatically,the phone doesn't boot normally anymore.
i tried to wipe cache, and to reset my phone to the factory settings, i tried many other things , and i ended up facing a dead-end
I tried to install many other Kernels(i dunno if they're compatible or not) , the same thing , but now it's stuck on the HTC Logo, and then it turns off.
I have No backup
Do i have to install a stock RUU ? how can i Flash a new Firmware ?
I've no clue to be honest.
THANKS guys.
Hi,
Flashing the wrong kernel will pretty much always result in a bricked phone.

Phone won't boot up

HI Guys
So my mate's phone won't boot up and I'd really appreciate some assistance. The last thing I did was unlock the phone via htcdev. But that's all I could do. Now I can't flash a recovery (I've tried a few) because I get an IMAGE UPDATE ERROR. I've also received a "SIGNATURE VERIFY FAIL" error.
Also, adb won't recognise my device but fastboot does.
What I'm trying to do is install a custom rom because my mate was complaining that his phone was slow and a bit laggy. I sold the phone to him in the first place so I've taken it upon myself to fix it.
Thanks guys, let me know if you need any further info.
CJ
First of all, we need some information about your phone.
I need : what kind(k2u, k2ul and so on)
Then what you have already done.
Then the other things (best of all you copy all information from your boot loader)
Edit: okay skript point 2 xD
Kreumadragon
Thanks for getting back to me.
Here's the information you've requested.

With regards to what I have already done, I tried to flash TWRP recovery but I got an image update error.
Mhh do you flash the right TWRP?
And use fastboot flash recovery *recovery name*?
Do you have any data's to loose?
Kreumadragon
yeah I flashed a few different TWRPs and none of them worked.. if there is a specific one and if you have a link, I could try again?
nope i don't need any data to lose. I have removed the sd card. Thanks again.
Anyone? Still having no luck with this phone.
Please test (if you want) the cwm recovery. Link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37075457
If this doesn't work flash a ruu and try again
Kreumadragon
There is no RUU out which will work and also the cwm is outdated.
How did you flash recovery?
Use the one i recommended in my index thread. This should work on your hboot.
An other option is to get s off and flash it via pl**img.zip isn't it?
Kreumadragon
You need a working OS for S-off. Not sure if that is working here.
@Old
You have s off, haven't you?
And I get s off with hboot 2.21
Kreumadragon
I don't have One SV anymore.
Rumrunner works on hboot 2.21.
He says that he didn't have data's to loose
theoretically you can create an ........IMG.zip file with all files a ruu use, only the recovery is changed? Think I can make one but first want to read what you think(old)
Kreumadragon
As long as he is S-on you don't need to make anything.
Right now he can only flash signed firmware by HTC this way.
Okay, thx I don't know
Actually no ruu for any kind of k2ul?
Kreumadragon
Only one. And you must be S-off or on ICS to use that.
@CJ_
Do you have test old.s method?
If this doesn't work, you probably need SOff.
Kreumadragon
Hi old.splatterhand, to answer your question, I flashed the latest TWRP recovery (2.8. something) but I got the following IMAGE UPDATE ERROR. Will try the ones in your index and report back.
Thanks for your help guys.
Will try it now... If that doesn't work, how do I get S-Off when I can't do anything with the phone?
