Hey all, so last night when I was trying to flash a new ROM onto my phone, I wanted to make sure I deleted everything off my previous ROM so I went into TWRP and basically went on a deleting frenzy. I wiped basically everything from system, os, to cache. Lets just say my thought process wasn't so smart. So now im stuck in hboot. I pmed Scrosler yesterday and he basically told me to RUU back. SO now for the last 5 hours I've been trying to look up how to do that. I downloaded a 1.85 Evita cingular RUU thingy, and tried using fastboot. Now I've run into another problem, my computer can't recognize my usb. Ive tried two different usb plugs of mine. I tried uninstalling HTC sync so that it could uninstall drivers and such, and then reinstall but to my avail that has not worked. So I can't even fastboot. So now I'm stuck and Ive looked on other peoples threads and such and can't figure this out. Yes I know I'm a noob. I SUCK. So if anyone could please help me out. Im rooted and unlocked bootloader. I get stuck in bootloop obviously because I dont have a OS. I can access Hboot and fastboot.
Thanks alot for anyone that could help me in this great time of need.
EDIT: I solved the problem. I just used my fathers computer which recognized my usb and RUU'd to 1.85 then unlocked bootloader etc. thanks for the help guys
Did you make sure you have the correct HTC drivers installed?

Doesnt HTC sync manager already update/install the latest drivers for your phone automatically?
You should manually install the drivers and turn off HTC sync manager. That may be your problem. I would uninstall it.

Ok, so I uninstalled HTC sync. I found a link to download ONLY the drivers.
Yep, getting same error still, USB device not recognized.
Try mounting the storage in TWRP, PC should recognize the 'removable disk' and you can put a zip onto it and flash the rom that way.
This way worked for me when I did the exact same thing. I thought I was screwed; now I'm running TN SE 2.2, highly recommended.

I tried doing this last time, but my PC isnt recognizing my device. It says USB device not recognized. This is the major issue I am plagued with otherwise I would do as you said.'''
EDIT: Ok so I was able to get it recognized on my dads laptop, he is running Windows Vista. So now when I go onto my computer and mount cache, (cant mount sd card through twrp because it says E:failed to mount /sdcard(invalid argument)AND UNABLE TO MOUNT SDCARDWHEN TRYING TO READ SETTINGS FILE) oops caps), it says I have to format it. I right clicked and tried to open as portable device and that works but I can't drag my ROM in there.
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this because the new HBoot is stopping the 1.85 RUU? Wouldn't you have to 2.2 RUU?

he is correct, you'll have to use the 2.20 ruu if you were on a 2.20+ rom. unfortunately you'll have to wait for a root method too :/

hey since I RUUd with 1.85, do I need to root again or will I still have my root?

But assuming you were unlocked before, getting it back is just a matter of flashing a custom recovery and superuser.
Hey I have tried everything to unlock the boot loader but i keep getting a error " Waiting for device" I even downloaded everything for AVD and SDK manager and changed USB ports. I was wondering if anyone can help me through skype or aim.
Thanks
looks like you don't have the proper driver for the one S phone
Sorry to barge in like this.
But since you were saying something like this maybe you can help me.
I am using an a Acer TravelMate 3200 windows xp.
What is the driver that I need to preinstall in the computer for me to use for later exploits like flashing,rooting for my xperia arc.

Just tried AIO. Finally unlocked the bootloader! Now im confused on what to do lol..
if you have root then all that's left is to boot up into recovery (volume down and power then select recovery from the bootloader) and flash a custom rom .zip file from your sd card. just be sure to follow all the installation steps for your selected rom (i recommened AOKP Jelly Bean, check my signature for the link if you like) and always ALWAYS wipe data/cache before installing a new rom. and happy flashing

First things first you need to boot into recovery (I use Goo Manager for this; Im lazy like that. It will also install the TWRP recovery.) and make a backup of the stock ROM your running now and keep a copy on your PC. Some times the contents of the SD Card can be corrupted. If any thing goes wrong your going to need something to go back to.
Then depending on your needs (AOSP/Sence) location in the world (EU/US) and what kind of One S (S3/S4) you have; you want to pick a ROM that's suits your needs.
I would stay away from Viper for now at least till your more secure with flashing, there are some extra steps like flashing a different boot.img; which can soft brick your phone or worse.
Start with something like Axiom S, for all your Sence needs. Or CodefireX CM10 for AOSP. If you use TWRP for your recovery you won't have to fast boot flash the boot.IMG for the ROM you chose. But again this depends on the ROM you choose to use, some ROMs don't play well with TWRP.
But most of all read. And then read some more. And when you think you know what your doing read a little more. This device seems to be real finicky. What works on one might not work on a another.
Good luck, be safe and welcome to the One S Forums!

I have literally tried EVERYTHING. I have spent countless hours and actually did not go to sleep last night trying to figure this damn thing out.
I have a HTC One X running Android Version 4.0.4, HTC Sense 4.0, and Software 2.20.
I cannot figure this **** out. Right now when I run the X-Factor exploit, it gets stuck at "daemon started succesfully". When I run the HTC Drivers.exe that come with Hasoon2000's All in one kit, it doesn't even run. It does nothing.
I have restarted my computer numerous times, and I am stuck. So I'm offering this:
Anyone who helps me/leads me in the correct direction to rooting and bootunlocking my ATT One X so I can install Cyanogenmod 10,
I will give you $25 [PayPal]
I am desperate, and just want this to work.

I'm currently following your guide. I downloaded your drivers. Do I just drag and drop all of these driver files into my drivers folder in system32?
I tried doing that earlier with I think the same drivers and It didnt work.
When I plug up my HTC One X, it doesn't show up as a adb device, it shows up as My HTC.

It would be more helpful to list the things you tried, instead of just saying "literally everything".
Does adb see the phone?
Did you try different USB ports or cables? Tried a different computer (if possible)?

I'm not sure by what you mean of "does adb see the phone?
If you mean if I open up device manager and it says "adb device", then no, adb does not see it.
I did try different USB cables, I'll try a different port now.
I do not have any access to any other computer at the moment, so no.
Thanks for your time, by the way.

Have you tried updating drivers manually? His toolkit did thesame to me but I just went to:
Right click Computer -> Manage -> driver manager
and updated my drivers from there.
EDIT: Try the post above mine, before this. I didn't even think of that, HTC Sync will install that latest drivers.
Aldo, this is technically a question so it shouldn't be here. It should be in Q&A
The problem is almost certainly the HTC drivers. Otherwise your computer won't see the phone.
You have to do this with just about every new device you root, unless you're staying with the same manufacturer.

Do you have the international version of the phone, or the US version?
it WILL work using the X-factor exploit.
Three main steps:
1.) Download SYNC to ensure latest drivers here
2.) make sure to RIGHT CLICK and RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR (that took me f'in 27 minutes to realize)
3.) follow all on screen instructions.

Check to make sure your use debugging is on, try it. If that doesn't work... I would like to see the prompt. May have to do this through teamviewer.
Drivers may be the problem. I didn't have quite the same problem he is having( fastboot and adb didn't wont to see my device.) Spent 3 days trying to fiqure it out. Finally I gave up and installed Mac Os X on vmware and ran the mac version of x-factor and then I had no problems. You might want to try that. It was the only thing that worked for me. Htc sync, pda net, and reinstalling the driver never helped me. No matter what I did I never could get windows to see my device.
Just wiped all data off my phone before flashing CyanogenMod 10. Problem is, I need to reboot into the bootloader so I can flash the boot.img since I have the 2.20 AT&T update. But I can't get my computer to recognize my phone in fastboot mode. I'm using Windows 8 64-bit, and I've tried multiple threads with Win8 64-bit drivers, and installing the drivers with signature verification disabled. I'm at a loss, hope you guys can help, since I can't turn my phone on until this gets fixed.

Yeah, like I said, HTC Sync didn't solve my problem for whatever reason.
However, it occurred to me that I've never had to worry about Android drivers with Mac and Linux, and I was able to use fastboot without a problem from a Ubuntu LiveCD, without resorting to downgrading my hboot. Granted it meant downloading and configuring the android tools in Ubuntu, and I wouldn't want to do it on a regular basis, but it's okay as a workaround, and this whole fiasco has me seriously considering switching my laptop to Ubuntu from Win8 (I could dual-boot), but I don't really have enough disk space for 2 operating systems).

Next find andriod , it should be greyed out. If you don't find install win 64 bit driver. It will still not recongize android when plugged in so click greyed out android and choose Manuel update. Then click browse for driver and go into win 64 drivers and manually choose. There is a lot of utube and other tutorials if you Google manuel install HTC drivers for win 8. Hope this helps ya.

I was able to get mine working with the combo of
1. uninstalling any HTC sync or sync manager and the HTC BMP USB Driver. Basically anything HTC.
2. Install HTC sync. Not sync manager. Go to the HTC support page and you'll see both listed. If you go to the specific phone support page it might not be there. (One S doesn't have the sync program, just sync manager iirc.)
3. Download PDAnet. When installing, It'll give a warning that you already have drivers installed and ask if you want to fix them or leave as is. I chose it to fix and it went though its process and I had working drivers after that.
I think this was already suggested before. I going back and giving thanks wherever due after this post. (On the mobile app right now)
Other easy way if you're using a One S is to download Hasoon2000's All-On-One Toolkit. He's updated the drivers for windows 8. I haven't tried it yet as mine are working so haven't had the need. I would assume his tool for any of the other phones he supports would have the updated drivers too.
As the title says: I'm trying to install the 3.18 RUU for my AT&T HTC One X. I'm currently on an old build of CM10.1 (beautifully maintained by H8rift) and was wanting to try the latest build he posted with the 3.4 Kernel. I am S-Off and Unlocked. I searched the forum (internal search seems to be broken at the moment) and all I keep seeing is mostly go to fastboot THEN run the RUU. Well I'm in fastboot (enabled the menu from within CM...less I just misunderstood that completely). Fastboot shows "Fastboot USB" but the RUU still gives Error 170. What did I do wrong?
Running this on a Windows 8 x64 system, installed HTC Sync Manager (still didn't help). I updated the Android SDK Tools to the latest version. My CID is all 1's (as per the S-Off directions). I'm at a loss here hehe.
Ooh I have TWRP 2.4.1.0. And yes I barely post, just always looking, reading, etc.
Is the USB port you're using 2.0 or 3.0? If it's 3.0 (it should have the USB icon and a little ss) try switching to 2.0. Also, try running RUU while not in fastboot.

Yup running it on my USB 2.0 ports. Tried my case ports and the motherboard ones, same thing. Also just tried it with the phone booted. No dice. Even using the HTC USB Cable (not like there should be a difference but hey, just in case). Maybe I should threaten the phone...with a hammer. (Nah I'm not that mean).

Hey you said you were on Windows 8. You may have to manually install the driver to get it work, that's what I had to do. Or you could use the universal adb driver, but if you're gonna RUU, I'd be safe and use the HTC one.

Time to continue flashing! I think what happened is I had the universal USB drivers but then had to install KIES for my bro so it replaced them. Then installing HTC on top of that made it give up. Thanks you two! I'll post if I have any other strange issues.

Annd now when I was all set to update to his latest one he posted, H8rift goes and begins posting nightlies and I don't have to downgrade touchpanel firmware! Hahaha (I had downgraded it and was about to install)! Still, thank you guys. I'm back in business!
Dear Turbo Mach 5,
Could you please provide the detailed steps you followed to RUU your ATT HTC One X.
I am also planning to update my ATT HTC One X with 3.18 RUU to use CM 10.2 based roms.
Please provide this information which will help me to start with my device.
1) Whether we need to re-lock the bootloader ? (I have SuperCID and S-Off)
2) After RUU ing whether we need to unclok the boot loader and root the device if we have SuperCID and S-off?
Thanks and Regards,
Sathish.

You don't need to relock your bootloader to the run the RUU because you have s-off. And your s-off status and unlocked bootloader should survive the RUU process. All you need to do afterwards is flash TWRP recovery again, then you can flash a ROM. Please be aware that cm10.2 is still very alpha and multiple users have reported bricks from running it.

Hi timmaaa,
Thank You very much for the clarification and update on cm 10.2 rom.
I was thinking with RUU my bootloader is going to re-lock even though I have S-off.
Thanks and Regards,
Sathish.

Hi,
I'm having trouble using the RUU as well. The problem seems to be getting the usb driver for my oneXL working. every time i plug it into my win7 pc, it goes through this installing drivers process but having clicked on "display details", the "android phone" component of the drivers says "failed". I've tried universal adb driver, and HTC usb driver with and without htc sync installed. the HTC sync manager keeps saying there is an update available for usb driver, even though I uninstalled the driver manager and htc sync.
Have not been able to get adb working, when i recently S_OFF my phone I had to use adb over wifi - but it worked.
Any help greatly appreciated, thanks!
Your post is a bit confusing as to which drivers you actually have installed. Download the latest HTC Sync Manager from the HTC One XL page at HTC.com, install it, connect your phone, drivers will install, uninstall HTC Sync Manager but leave drivers installed. Also, make sure you're using a usb 2.0 port and the HTC cable that came with the phone.

You're in the wrong section, this is the HTC One XL section, you need to go here:

Just had the same issue trying to manually update my M9 to Nougat. Rebooted to download mode (Volume down & Power from off state) and it worked.
