[Q] Not able to mount sdcard - HTC One S

I have an unlocked HTC ONE S (T-Mobile) with CWM Recovery v6.0.3.1. I was having an issue with looped rebooting of my phone. So I tried to flash a cm-10.1.3-RC2 on the phone using ROM Manager. After this the phone keeps rebooting in loop also this time I am not able to format the sdcard and everytime I try it I get error "Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure...
Error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure!". Can someone plz help?

You need to flash a stock recovery. Then from bootloader you have to do a FACTORY RESET/CLEAR STORAGE.
afterwards, SD should be mountable.

Thanks Khan. But my problem is that my PC is not recognizing my device in the bootloader mode. Also when I try to mount SD card as USB drive it is not getting reflected as external drive. After trying for almost 40-50 time I could see it in PC only once or twice.

hmm... Faulty Cable? or have you tried checking the device with another PC?
You can also check the DEVICE MANAGER while the phone is plugged in, and see if there is any unfinished device driver installation.

No, not at all a faulty cable I tried 2 different cables both of which used to work till yesterday. Just was able to connect to PC again flashed stock recovery img which I took a before flashing CWM but again not able to reset factory settings it just keeps restarting.

It should work though. Can you go into stock recovery? The phone with red triangle is ok. When this appears, pressing volumeUP+power should get you into recovery.
If you can't go into recovery, you may have flashed a wrong one.

Yep I got that red triangle with phone and reached the recovery mode prompt as well now what?

I was checking if the recovery you flashed is working correctly. Technically it should be able to wipe the SD storage.
Try factory reset again and then flash TWRP and see if you can mount the SD now.

Ok. But when I do factory settings reset it is not going back to the last software version I updated it to OTA. How to get the latest version on the phone?

Oh that. No it won't restore it like that. The factory reset was to make the SD PARTITION work again.
To get the stock ROM back, you need to run an RUU or have an OTA.zip ...
That being said, what's your CID?
Also tell me the details on your bootloader. Bootloader version, radio...

Okay you can use T-MOBILE US Jellybean (JB) RUU . You an find RUUs stickied in the development section.
When you download it, connect your phone in FASTBOOT USB MODE and then run the RUU from PC.
It will restore your phone to stock.

[Q] How to get past bootloader, cannot delete PG88IMG.zip

Hi
I have tried to change my hboot from 6.98... to 7.00... Because i want to install miui on my saga. I followed the steps in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679338.. But after the hboot installed, i could only reboot. Now i am stuck with the bootscreen (was running andromedaus jelly bean rom) and therefore i cannot delete the pg88img.. What should i do?
Shut your phone down, pull the sdcard and use your PC to delete/rename the file.

I deleted the PG88IMG.zip, and flashed 2.00.2 hboot. but still have the same issue: after flashing roms are stuck on boot animation.
I did some research, but steel no luck fixing this.
UPD--
I succeed to recover to one of my backups after pulling off my battery (after proper power off) for few minutes. I don't know if it helped, or may bee
it because of I first tried CM 7.1 Instead of CM10 alfa from Andromadus. Anyway, I'm really happy now
Did you flash the ROM after changing hboot?

I had this problem once, I ended up booting the phone into recovery with no sdcard, then inserting sd card (being careful that the battery stayed in).
Since then I use the dd command to flash hboot if necessary.

[Q] Bootloop - Can't get into recovery

HOX is in bootloop. I could not get it to boot into TWRP or anything but bootloader.
I tried pushing a new boot.img in FASTBOOT. Nothing.
I tried pushing a newer version of TWRP in FASTBOOT. Nothing.
I relocked the bootloader and ran the RUU, which installed fine. Still stuck in a bootloop.
Any ideas?

Sounds like you need to wipe all data. Don't know the commands though, sorry. But Android is Linux, so
rm /data/*
rm /cache/*
could work, not sure how to do it through adb.
Make sure you're using files for the S4 evita One X. If you're pushing recovery etc for the Tegra One X, they aren't going to work.
So are saying that you can get into bootloader but not recovery? did you select recovery from bootloader? i know it is a silly question, but you did not mention it...also did you try to manually get into recovery by holding power+vol up+vol down and then letting go power once the phone vibrates? if all else fails, grab the RUU file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2156368 once you get to the black screen that says htc

That's your problem. You have to unlock again to push a custom recovery.
And what happens when you select fastboot or recovery? It should not be a boot loop since it is not booting into the os. Sorry of you already answered, reading from phone worked a double shift

I'm aware of that. You've done nothing but run the RUU at this point? You might try running it again. It should not be bootlooping if it installed correctly, since that replaces everything on the phone.

Why not just Unlock bootloader again and flash recovery anew, flash ROM.
Boot to bootloader and select clear storage. Then boot to bootloader and do a factory reset. Hopefully that will do it. Then you can unlock bootloader again and flash a custom recovery.

how do I unlock boot loader from bootloader. I tried fastboot oem unlock, and nothing. I cant use adb because i cant boot into android
Did the RUU install correctly? So you are now on a stock ROM? If so, did you try the first two steps i wrote?
Sent from my One S using Tapatalk 4
tried that too. still just bootloops. it will boot up show the internal storage than just bootloops.
I would try to enter fastboot and run the RUU again to be sure it flashed correctly. Then try clear storage one more time to fix your SD-card. If that doesn't work i think there is a manual way to format the sd-card. Maybe someone can provide a link?
BTW, going to sleep now.

Usual errors while installing a recovery are because the boot loader is locked (relocked).
You sure you unlocked the boot loader after you ran the RUU?
Def. Was unlocked. I am running completely stock rooted right now, only because I need the phone reliably for a few days. Cell service took forever to connect after the restore to stock and speeds are really bad on data now. Have to figure that one out. After 12 hours getting this thing to finally resemble its former self, I have files all over my laptop and am going to completely flush everything pertaining to this phone and start from scratch to get back to s off and moonshine hboot. This phone is a pita, though.

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.

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.
Sent from my Evita
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.

so i should just try a diffrent rom? when doing that i should flash the boot img using fastboot then install the rom and then do a cache whipe correct?
Did you Wipe system in advanced Wipe last time before flashing the rom?
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.

Need for stock Rogers RUU or Recovery Zip

My HTC One X was bricked, and I need to restore it to Rogers Stock. However, I searched the entire XDA webstie + 50 pages on Google + 50 pages on other country's android site, I cant find any working download URL. Can someone please upload one RUU or Zip file for me, so I can restore my phone please?
If your phone is bricked an RUU isn't going to save it. Either way, you'll find all Evita RUUs here:

The phone actually is soft brick, all I need to do is to flash it back to stock rom, so I can do a S-Off
I have this problem because I attempted to flash cyanogenmod without getting S-Off, thus it end up with black screen boot loop.
Any idea to solve it? I cant find any recovery zip that is working
I wouldn't ruu without S-off. Do you have supercid? If you do, you may brick. Best to boot to bootloader then recovery then flash a sense rom then s-off

There's no such thing as a soft brick, a phone is either bricked or it isn't. Do as exad suggested and flash a Sense ROM then get s-off, then update your firmware (which is probably what was your actual problem).

THat is another problem, there is no CID showed on the bootloader screen.
This is all happen after I get bootloader unlocked, and attempted to flash clockworkmod. It end up with boot loop with black screen, cant get into any system
What I can do right now is
1. boot into TWRP
2. Copy anyfile into phone through TWRP
3. flash zip through TWRP, but I cant find any rom that is working for my phone
4. fastboot usb with any command

The CID doesn't show on your bootloader screen unless you have s-off. What are your bootloader details? What recovery do you have installed? You can check your CID with this fastboot command:
Code:
fastboot oem readcid

Model: PJ83100
Bootloader unlocked

The fact is you don't actually need s-off to flash cyanogenmod. You only need s-off to run the 3.18 RUU which updates your firmware, which you don't need to do because your firmware is fine. This brings me back to the other question you didn't answer: what recovery do you have installed?

I used the command
CID: BS_US001
My recovery is TWRP v2.6.3.0
THis is the only version that is working for me, I tried clockworkmod, and higher or lower version for TWRP, but I cant mount USB storage through any of those except 2.6.3.0
Recovery version please.

You just need to extract the boot.img from the rom you are flashing, put it in your adb/fastboot folder and then after flashing the rom.
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then you will be able to boot it.
I suggest getting S-OFF using rumrunner so you don't need to take this step anymore. will also protect you in case you need to RUU.

I know what phone you have. an evita. Says so in your bootloader
You need unofficial 2.6.3 from original android dev. if you want to flash cm as you need SE Linux support.
Any sense rom should work on official twrp 2.6.3
make sure you wipe system cache and dalvik cache prior to flashing.
This is what you should do to rule out every issue.
Download unofficial 2.6.3
Check the Md5 of your download
put it in your fastboot folder
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery unnoficialrecoveryfilename.img
select recovery in bootloader
wipe cache, dalvik, system in wipe, advanced wipe
then do a factory reset for safe measure
flash your rom
wipe cache and dalvik
reboot to bootloader
extract the boot.img from the rom put it in your fastboot folder
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
