[q] Need help htc one s bricked!!!

I've been looking around at different forums to see how to get my phone back to normal and there many ways to do it and I'm stuck.I'm able to use clockwork recovery,able to use fastboot but SD card is mounted and has an error everytime I try unmount , been trying to use the command propmt not that experienced I need some guidance to how to get another rom on phone

Try to flash the stock recovery, relock the bootloader with "fastboot oem lock" and flash a RUU.
Then try again from the beginning

Do I use the command propmt or Fastboot or clockwork

Open cmd prompt. Navigate to folder where your fastboot program is (i.e. c:\android is where I put mine).
Plug in phone, boot into bootloader and click power to access fastboot.
Type in the "fastboot OEM lock" command in command prompt as suggested by torxx and that will relock the bootloader. Then flash ruu in bootloader

Once u relock bootloader, you are done with command prompt... I think. I havemt done it on this phone, but usually you put ruu on root of sdcard (internal in this case) and reboot into bootloader and the ruu should begin flashing from there. Make sure its named properly. I'm sure there are threads regarding this

this is what i get:C:\Documents and Settings\Jamal\Android>adb push rom.zip/sdcard
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.29 and then all the information about adb about the options and commands
Im on fastboot right now and using the command prompt still, the bootloader is unlocked, and i dont think adb has dected my device beacause it does this for every command: C:\Documents and Settings\Jamal\Android>adb shell

[Q] AT&T HTC One X Bricked and need advice

Hi,
I have an AT&T HTC One X with no OS. I wiped it when I was trying to flash a custom ROM.
I only have access to bootloader and TWRP. Fastboot is working fine but TWRP is not. It does
mount properly, and adb sideload fails as well. I am using a Windows 7 PC and used a USB 2.0 port.
I installed some HTC Drivers from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2217396
but it still says "device drivers failed to install" when I boot into recovery.
When I try to mount, it does not let me mount the sdcard. I see an E: drive on my
PC but it is inaccessible.
I have S-On, my bootloader is unlocked, and I have hboot version 2.14 if that info helps.
Does anybody have any suggestions as to what I can try next?

First thing you need to do is clear your post up a bit. You said you have access to TWRP but it isn't working, can you elaborate on that please?
You also said that it does mount, but then you said later it doesn't mount, which is it?
Have you performed a factory reset from the bootloader at any point?
Exactly which ROM(s) did you try to install? I need the exact filename(s) please.
Did you remember to flash the boot.img with fastboot after flashing the ROM?
Do you have a TWRP backup on your phone?
Please answer all questions with as much relevant detail as possible, that'll aid me to help you properly.

I helped him over teamviewer so I can clarify the situation. He can't mount in TWRP, it must of been a typo. It seems he cleared everything when he was trying to wipe to flash a rom. I believe it was ViperXL. He has no backup and sideload does not work as well. Hopefully that will clear things up a little bit more. I installed some newer HTC Drivers since the ones he had were old. The only thing that works seems to be fastboot at this point.

Sorry it was a Typo, I was not able to mount at all. The error said "unable to mount /sdcard"
Yes I have tried performing a factory reset from bootloader but the phone restarts and comes back to TWRP and then same thing.
I tried installing the ViperXL ROM but was not successful.
I was not able to flash the ROM and I tried to fix that but meanwhile looks like I wiped all what I had on my Phone, so no but I did try to flash a new boot.img after and it didnt work.
I dont think I have any TWRP backup on my phone, even though I tried flashing new TWRP but all failed.

Ok first thing, don't ever perform a factory reset from the bootloader because it corrupts your sd card. That's why you're experiencing problems now. You need to wipe the sd card/internal storage using TWRP 2.6 to make it usable again. If you don't currently have TWRP 2.6 installed you'll need to do that. Download it from here. Put the file in your fastboot folder. Connect phone in fastboot mode, open command prompt from within fastboot folder, issue the following commands:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "filename.img"
(the exact filename, minus the talking marks)
Code:
fastboot erase cache
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you should be able to mount your sd card using TWRP and copy a ROM across to flash.

So I followed all the above steps as noted; I had TWRP 2.6.3.0 earlier, I flashed the new TWRP 2.6.0.0 from the link you provided.All

I rebooted into recovery, still came up as TWRP 2.6.3.0, then I went to TWRP reboot and chose Recovery, phone rebooted into TWRP 2.6.0.0
Tried mounting (could not select /sd card and /cache(expected as we erased it)) and ADB sideload, got the same errors as before. Unable to mount /sdcard.
Rebooted again and it displayed TWRP 2.6.3.0

Did you wipe the sd card/internal storage like I said before trying to mount it?

Its 2.6.3.0, but in recovery when I go into option TWRP reboot and chose Recovery button, phone reboots into TWRP 2.6.0.0 and when I reboot it again, its 2.6.3.0

That's really screwy. I think you should try installing recovery again. What happens when you boot the phone normally?

Ok good news, something happened, I tried all the steps again carefully and now I see TWRP 2.6.0.0 on boot and I am able to mount the sdcard and my computer now recognises the phone and I can manually copy files on to it.
Now in order to not mess it up anymore, should I just copy ViperXL ROM or should I use ADB sideload?

Either one should be fine. If you have S-ON and the phone gets stuck on the HTC screen, you have to flash the boot.img. here's how to do it.
1. On your PC in the ViperXL.zip, take out the boot.img and put it in the directory where you have the adb and fastboot files.
2. Boot into fastboot.
3.Open cmd. Change the directory to the folder where you have those files.
4.type "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
5. Reboot the phone.
The phone should boot.

Definitely install through TWRP. You shouldn't need to flash a boot.img because Viper uses an aroma installer which does that for you. But, if for some reason it doesn't work just flash the boot.img via fastboot.

So I flashed the boot image, then copied ViperXL and installed it through TWRP, it failed.

Exactly which error is it giving you? Did you check the md5 of the downloaded file? Are you still on TWRP 2.6?

No I did not check the MD5, yes I'm on TWRP 2.6.0.0 and the errors it gives are as follows:
unable to mount '/cache'
unable to open zip
Error flashing zip

Always check the md5. It's possibly corrupt.

Yup redownloaded the file, checked/compared MD5, copied it back to the phone, removed the previous bad copy, flashed ROM successfully..., as per the message but system reboots to recovery.. is that expected?
And I still see both the TWRP's 2.6.3.0 and 2.6.0.0 the phone needs couple reboots in order to get to TWRP 2.6.0.0 but automatic reboot is in TWRP 2.6.3.0 whats the deal here?

I have no idea why your recovery is acting like that. Hopefully someone else can chime in on that.

Bricked Moto G - Need help urgently!

So, I am in the middle of trying to fix my Moto G that is bricked/bootloop.
What happened is that I "accidentally" factory reset my phone using Philz Touch Recovery, after I did that, my phone wouldn't boot. After doing some research on the interwebs I found that since Philz is based of CWM it also deleted the /os folder, so I had to install a custom ROM to fix it. I did install 2 different ROM's twice each (CM11 and Carbon) and still am stuck in a boot loop. (I wiped cache and data .etc before I installed) I have no idea what to do, please help me!
TL;DR: Moto G stuck in Bootloop/bricked

Try to flash your recovery again, IF you cannot get back into recovery..which ever one you are using, flash again and go into the recovery in order to erase cache/dalvik..if you do erase cache/dalvik and still in a bootloop, then most likely you'll need to flash a new/undefiled OS..
There is a chance that a flash of OS could be done without loosing all your data, but a custom FXZ would be needed..
Go down this list and find your device OS..and download..and flash the new/fresh OS..this list is factory FXZ's which will erase your data..
I personally prefer TWRP recoveries..

OK..if you erased cache..then that's all you can do with that..
Reflash your recovery..make sure you have a known good recovery for your particular device..if reflash recovery and still a bootloop..then flashing a clean/fresh OS is the only thing that is left..of course you certainly deserve a second opinion..
If you are concerned about loosing all your data..then there is a way to flash a new/clean OS without erase your data..BUT..it takes a special modified FXZ to do so, and get your device back up..

Bro, try flashing TWRP, it's easier (my opinion) to use... Do you have the .zip of CM11? If yes, make a Factory Reset and install CM11. If it still in a bootloop, instal the stock firmware.

Alright, how am I supposed to sideload the .img for TWRP?

Just download TWRP and flash using your current recovery.. Also you could try going into advance in TWRP and clicking fix permissions..
If you cannot flash a new Recovery using the recovery already on the device.. Flash with adb.
Download a new recovery using a PC.
Place the .IMG into your fastboot folder.
Rename the recovery 'recovery.img' without quotes.
Boot into bootloader.
On your PC hold shift and right click the folder your fastboot is in and select to start your cmd directory their.
A command window should open and type...
"Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

I will try and make this simple as possible, this process will get your device back to stock if you are able to get into fastboot mode.
- Step 1: Put device into fastboot mode.
- Step 1a: Run ADB and check for devices.
Code:
adb devices
- Step 1b: If ADB cannot see the device unplug the USB and plug it back in.
- Step 1c: Run ADB and check for devices again, if device is detected in ADB move to step 3, if not continue on to step 2.
Code:
adb devices
- Step 2: If ADB does not detect the device unplug the USB
- Step 2a: Restart the device in fastboot mode
- Step 2b: Plug USB back in
- Step 2c: Run ADB and check for devices, if device is detected in ADB move to step 3.
Code:
adb devices
- Step 3: Start the flashing process with ADB using your systems firmware.
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk3
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot reboot
- or run the bat file for your firmware.
- Step 3a: If you get errors or hang ups at anytime during the flashing process after recovery.img make more than 1 attempt to run the command in ADB. I have the XT1034 and my sparsechunk2 and 3 along with erase cache and erase userdata likes to hang up and then fail but I am still able to fully restore my Moto G. I hope this helps.

First of all run the adb setup file and press (Y) all 3 times.
Next unzip the twrp.zip folder. Then flash the twrp recovery by using the "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" command. Make sure phone is in fastboot mode.
Next boot the phone into the recovery and select advanced. Then click on terminal command and navigate to the /sdcard/ folder. Lastly click "select" on the bottom right corner.
Now download whatever rom and gapps you would like to install on your phone and rename them to something short. Then open a command prompt at the directory where the rom and gapps are. In the command prompt enter these commands "adb push NAMEOFROM.zip /sdcard/" and "adb push NAMEOFGAPPS.zip /sdcard/".
The command prompt will not show change for a few minutes. After you notice the command prompt is ready for the next command it is okay to exit it.
Now just flash the rom and gapps normally and hopefully your phone will be okay.
**BTW the adb setup program makes adb and fastboot accessible from any directory even without the actual adb and fastboot files.

OK if you hear a beep when connecting your phone while it's in fastboot its not your drivers as such
.. If not tell me cause you will need to activate them!

Yeah I hear the beep.

[Q] In dire need of help, stuck with no ROM on phone :(

Hello all,
as the title says, I'm stuck in TWRP recovery after wiping my rom to revert to stock... then realising that the recovery doesn't recognise the image as it's a .tgz file.
I've tried to ADB into it, but no such luck, I just get error: device not found.
Does anyone know a way I can fix this?
I've also tried the adb sideload feature of TWRP to no avail.
Thanks in advanced guys.

Flash the factory image through fastboot. Download and run flash-all.bat (something along those lines)

Go to bootloader and run "fastboot devices" and see whether your device gets detected or not? If it does, then flash the factory images. System and boot img files would do the job.
If it doesn't then you need to fix the adb, fastboot issues first. Follow these threads:

If you have an OTG cable with you, you can directly flash the rom from a usb stick!

Too Long. 15 second installer is the best way to get adb and fastboot. See previous post

Minimal is fine but you have to manually add to environment variables or cd to the directory but that's all done with the 15 seconds one.

Thanks for the help guys.
RootSU, you saved me haha, was sat at work stressing trying to sort the mess I made out!
I'm all stock now... But the screen keeps going off because of the proximity sensor haha -_-
Thanks again though. Can always count on a Yorkshireman

The important thing is to remain calm and know it can be fixed

Bricked XT1032

So I have a cousins XT1032 I'm trying to fix. What happens is that it doesn't want to boot. After the Motorola Bootanimation it goes to a Black screen, I've read about going into Recovery and Factory Resetting or Wiping Cache and I've done it hundreds of times now and it hasn't changed a thing. I've tried flashing the Stock ROM and everything flashes correctly but when I reboot it goes to the same Black Screen after the Boot animation. I've tried putting a custom recovery (CWM, TWRP, Philz) and it flashes, but when I press Recovery on the phone after flashing, it boots into the Stock Dead android recovery. I'm not sure what else to do. So any help would be great, thanks.

Hmm, so I found something weird... So I said that I had factory reset man times, using Fastboot and Android Recovery, well today I was trying to convert it to a GPE to see if it would work and it didn't. It still did the same thing (black screen after bootanimation) So I tried to Sideload a ROM through Android Recovery and it aborted the installation so I pressed on the android recovery. "Update from SD Card" or something like that and I saw that my cousins old files were still there, they haven't been erased...So I'm starting to think that this is a defect...
But anyways, If anyone knows the solution I would really appreciate it!

No one? :/

If your cousins files are still there then you can get them onto your computer, if you have cwm or twrp use adb sideload to transfer the contents on to your computer directly. Then you can try whatever you want knowing that the files are back since im guessing thats the most important.
1st: Download http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42407269#post42407269 ??? Install this
2nd: Put phone in recovery either into cwm or twrp, then open up minimal adb
3rd: Use this command to pull your files into your computer, these will be located in you hdd where you go into program files and etc, basically the root of your computers hdd at C:\
Command = adb pull /sdcard/ c:\
Hopefully this helps you, good luck, mate.

Thanks for trying to help man, but like I said if I try to flash anything like a Recovery or anything else it shows that it flashes correctly but when I try to get into recovery it just boots into the dead android recovery one

When you flash the recovery do you get an error like some mb error? Try to flash this recovery, it worked for me, i had a similar problem because i flashed android l and the bootloader was different so you need a compatible recovery, i downloaded one today, i need to find link, stay online

Im sure it should work, i had the same error i believe, lol, today i tried changing my dalvik size in build.prop and my phone wasnt booting so i tried flashing recovery and i had the error you was having, then i used these adb commands, i guess i messed my phone up so i can help you in a couple hours later on, lol, coincidences! xD Did it work for you?

Just flashed the recovery you linked to. And nope, didn't do anything. I still boot up to the Dead Android guy recovery. Hmm I'm starting to think that this is a Hardware Defect

Since you flashed GPE, try doing this, flash back Motorola stock without doing the erase commands and then try flashing this recovery.

This is something i found on a thread --- You have to enter recovery straight after you flash it, or the old one will replace it,when you exit the new recovery there will be an option to disable the old recovery.

Yea I know about that entering recovery right after flashing and I've done that every time. It never has worked. Hmm something is wrong with this phone. I've factory resetted the phone at least 10 times using the Recovery and another 10 times using Fastboot and the files are still there. I think that it's definitely is a Hardware problem :/ dang

I do not know if this will work but it is a wild guess, i had a htc sensation and i was able to use adb commands at the start of boot even when it didnt boot up, so what i am trying to say is boot up your phone and then plug in your usb cable and then try the adb pull command i gave you earlier, im sure this wont work but give it a shot.

It probably would work If the phone had USB Debugging on before it got bricked :/ I'm about to give up on this phone. I've tried everything lol.
I'm thinking that the Partitions are corrupted since none of them will format using fastboot. It just says it cant format Raw type partitions or something like that

You have not done ALL of the necessary fastboot commands when flashing the firmware image. Make sure you have an XT1032 4.4.4 image.
Do the following manually, report any errors. Use no other fastboot commands other than those stated below.
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img

mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk2 (CHANGE TO MATCH ACTUAL FILE IN FOLDER)
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk3 (CHANGE TO MATCH ACTUAL FILE IN FOLDER)
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot reboot​
