[Q] --Emergency Thread--got stuck - HTC One S

Hi, I explain short what I made with my Htc one s:
1. Unlock via the HTC site,
2. Recovery,
3. CM 10 (stable) on SD card and I loaded the boot.img (I think that was the mistake, loading the boot.img before installing CM 10 not afterwards)
4. Install of CM 10 but I doesn't load the boot.img again.
The problem(s) in a few sentences:
1. CM 10 is starting ( only the loading page) on my HTC One S. After a while restart. (bootloop)
2. My PC regonizes an usb connection but i can't acces to the sd card.(device failed enumeration)
3 In recovery mode there's as well no acces to the sd card (can't mount sd card)
4. When I go into fastboot 2 minutes later fastboot switches to fastboot usb like normal but still no acces.
I tried to connect the phone via adb-no chance.
Thanks for your help!

Did you flash the boot.img?

Yes

Flash latest twrp. Try to wipe Sd-card from twrp.
If that doesn't work, flash stock recovery and boot to bootloader. Choose clear storage. This should bring your sd-card back.

Thanks for your reply.
Since Windows doesn't recognize the phone ( "unknown USB device, device failed enumeration" in device manager) I can't flash anything either from adb fastboot via command line nor via all in one kit. The phone doesn't even go into USB mode when it's in fastboot.
If I select clear storage in the bootloader it throws me into CWM where i basically can't do anything.

I didn't get it.. was boot.img flashed via fastboot after cm install, too? Did you cleared cache and dalvik(via fastboot or cwm) after rom/kernel instalation?
and we are talking about cm 10.0 stable?

Rooted 2.20 now cant boot my phone

Hi Everyone,
So i followed all the steps to temp root 2.20 including successfully installing TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project). I then downloaded the CM10 rom and extracted the boot.img as per posts and rebooted into the bootloader and flashed the boot.img from CM10 via Fastboot. However after doing then rebooting to Recovery mode in order to flash the ROM, i get stuck in the red text where it gives you a warning about it being in development mode or something.
I am able to successfully boot into the bootloader via Power+down volume. Additionally I am able to boot into the TWRP recovery just fine, however I am lost and have no clue how to restore my phone to either the CM10 ROM or most importantly at least to stock working condition.
When i got to mount the SDCARD via twrp normally i would get a pop up on my screen and allow me to access my SD card, now i get a pop up just telling me that i need to format my SD card first. I'm afraid some how my SD card got wiped or something.
Can someone please walk me through the steps on how to restore my phone. Please if possible i would appreciate using LAME terms as i do not have any experience as you can tell i screwed up :/ Can you please listed step by step instructions including commands for Fastboot/adb etc etc if needed. Thank you very much for your help and support.

I know you tried to help, but it appears now I have bricked the phone. Hopefully i can fix it as i still have access to Bootloader and TWRP recovery. I'll PM you in the morning, thank you.
dont factory reset in bootloader. only factory reset in twrp. sometimes evita has a hard time getting into recovery from bootloader. just keep trying to get into recovery from bootloader. also even if your phone doesn't boot all the way adb sometimes still works. so try "adb reboot recovery" while its trying to boot.
if you did corrupt your sdcard try this method to get it fixed without having to run ruu.
[How to] Fix corrupt/unmountable internal storage on the HTC One X/XL
when you get your sdcard fixed remember to wipe everything and then copy cm10 and gapps to your sdcard and flash. since boot.img is already flashed you shouldn't need to do it again.
you did flash boot.img as "fastboot flash boot boot.img"? i made the mistake of flashing boot.img to recovery instead of boot. i was freaking out. just to make sure flash recovery again "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-evita.img"

Yes i did fastboot flash boot boot.img from within the Bootlader. FYI that boot.img was from inside the CM10 zip file. I belive my SD card is corrupt i will check out that link. FYI I am able to get into Recovery mode form the Boatloader if i chooser recovery. However since the SD card seems messed up i can't access it currently. Also I tried to use the method to install the CM10.zip file using TWRP recovery. That recovery has a GUI and you can click on the INSTALL button and choose the zip file you want to install, however it errors out.
What is the proper way to flash a rom when i am in the TWRP recovery? Can you provide me with the commands/steps? Thanks for all your support guys.

install/install from zip/browse to your zip/slide to flash (they really should patent that)
now most of us, to do a clean flash, we'd go into the "wipe" menu in TWRP before flashing , factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe system. then we flash our rom.
hope that cleared it up!

You won't be able to flash anything until you fixed your sdcard using the method in that link.
Ptesmoke where have you been? DvineLord is the only one been helping here. The Q&A thread is a mess. where is edditsync chongo, rohan and the other superhero's.

I tried to fixed corrupted SD card as per video. however after flashing the recovery.img via fastboot when it wants me to do a factory reset instead of doing the factory reset it just goes back to the HTC brilliant screen with the red warning text and sits there. If i go to twpr recovery and click on install i can't access me zip currently due to sd card issues.
Is there a way to format via PC since it lets me as long as I am in twpr and just put stock files/folders onto the SD card? Or is it possible to install the 2.20 ruu again? I re-downloaded it form HTC's site while I am in twrp however I cannot install it won't detect my phone. Thanks for your help.
"fastboot oem lock" then run ruu. ruu gets run in fastboot.
after the ruu, reunlock bootloader and flash twrp, copy cm10 and gapps to your sdcard, flash boot.img in fastboot, wipe everything except for external storage in twrp, flash cm10 and gapps in twrp, then reboot.
If you can get into twrp and go to mount, mount usb storage and connect your phone windows should prompt you to format the SD card.
Once that's done you can drag and drop the rom you want to flash then boot into fastboot and flash the boot.img.
If you want to run the ruu you need to relock the bootloader first.
To do that you must go into fastboot usb and then type fastboot oem lock.

I'm sorry i'm not too tech savy. Can you clarify how to Fastboot OEM lock. Assuming i just need to be in fastboot mode and run a command in command prompt?
Also once that is done how can i run RUU via fastboot? Right now i have HTC RUU for 2.20 from august that i downloaded from their site and not sure how i can have it detect my phone. If you could clarify and explain those steps in Lame terms i would greatly appreciate it, thanks in advance.

That's the command you do and the ruu is an exe file so get into fastnoot on your phone from bl and run the ruu after you've locked the bootloader
Thank you both will try that now.
Hey guys thanks for all your help and your support it worked. I had the wrong CM10 file instead of Evita i had the other one :/ That was the issue all along ugh... but all resolved could of not have done it without your support. Thanks!! I can now finally go to bed.. been at it since 10pm, now 3:11am
Maybe you can help me . I'm having the same problem. The problem is, everytime I try to use any fastboot commands, it'll say "waiting for device". I'm stressing out.

Make sure you have the right drivers installed, download the latest htc sync from htc's website.
Install HTC sync connect phone and let the drivers install, then make sure you close htc sync from the system tray and try again.
Like DvineLord said below make sure you're in the bootloader then select Fastboot once selected it should say in red writing Fastboot USB.
fastboot only works in bootloader btw
Hit the thanks button for the people helping you fix your boo boos.
If you can type it, click it for them, least you can do in return.

[Q] HTC Inspire 4G ATT stuck hboot 0.85 / S-On / Bootloader unlocked

Devs,
After navigating through our forums, I need help if you don't mind me asking.
Have AT&T Inspire 4G and unlocked bootloader but i'm still S-On. I also have CWM however I cannot boot to OS. I've tried installing the RUU via PC and SD card and to no avail. SD card reads the file but does not install. I tried both the Radio and full blown OS in zip form.
I can only get to hboot /fastboot menu and CWM. I'm S-On and Bootloader unlocked.
When i tried to install via RUU stock rom in hboot usb, i get the error message battery is not 30% yet the battery if fully charged.
When i tried to install via RUU stock rom in fastboot usb, it errors out and HTC black screen come up. I unplug the usb cable and fastboot says updated failed.
I cannot update OS so i'm not sure if i need to relock bootloader to install ruu or if there's another method to getting past this.
Thank you
I'm not sure if you tried to flash a zip from recovery. If so, did you flash the boot.img from fastboot?

Hi
Yes, if you mean placing the PD98IMG.zip file on the main directory of the storage card yes, I did try that. When hboot comes up, it looks like it loads it but doesn't. I've tried updating the radio, stock rom via zip and stock rom via ruu. nothing has worked.
do you think i need to relock by bootloader (i hope not) and then try to run the run?
Funny thing is, when i'm in hboot, i run the ruu stock roms via exe and they all say i'm below 30% battery life which is not the case. I then switch to fastboot usb and then the ruu exe tries to install but errors out on the phone
i'm at a loss now. Right now, I can get to hboot, fastboot, clockwork mod but that's it. the hboot i think is for gingerbread that i'm on.
need some direction if anyone has any thoughts.

Yes, I tried to install 4 different custom roms using clockwork mod. They all ran through installation but never booted up.
I'm s-on so I'm not sure if I can install a custom rom
Also, now when I try to install a custom rom or different radio I get signature error message in clockwork mod
Right, so did you flash the boot.img from fastboot after you flashed the ROM?

I have not been able to flash the boot image in clockwork mod or hboot/fastboot. Clockwork mod gives me the signature error and now so does custom rom
Can I flash a custom rom with s-on?
No. I am saying, flash a ROM with CWM, then fastboot flash the boot.img. The boot.img is extracted from the ROM zip. Pull it out, then "fastboot flash boot boot.img." That is how you flash a ROM with S-On and unlocked bootloader. Look in the Ace Think Tank thread in he Desire HD forums for more detailed information.

No, the boot.img needs to be on the computer where you're running fastboot from. Run fastboot from the computer from the folder holding the boot.img, while your phone is in fastboot mode. Did you read the Ace Think Tank? It has very clear instructions.

It's not a "think tank process." The Ace Think Tank is a thread full of info about rooting and flashing an Ace (HTC Desire HD/Inspire 4G) device. Included in it is information about flashing custom ROMs to an S-On, unlocked device, which is what you need. And yes, that process lets you flash the boot.img from the computer to the phone via fastboot over USB.

Here is my checklist
Flashing roms with an unlocked bootloader S-On.
****This ASSUMES that you have installed HTC drivers and have setup and tested ADB and FASTBOOT.
• Unlock your bootloader and flash a custom recovery (CWM or 4ext)
• Download the ROM zip file you are willing to flash to your PC.
• Extract the the boot.img from inside the zip file (do not extract the whole rom)
• Put the [ROM].zip file on /sdcard
• Once in recovery, you need to do a full wipe (wipe data / factory reset and wipe cache + dalvik cache). You can also format some other partitions such as data and system, but the full wipe will work.
• wipe data/factory resent
• wipe cache
• wipe dalvik cache
• Flash ROM from recovery (install zip from /sdcard)
• Reboot into bootloader again and plug the phone to the PC.
• You need to be in fastboot usb (if you see HBOOT USB PLUG in the phone, just press power to toggle)
• Open a cmd/terminal and navigate to where the boot.img file is located - example [C:\]
• Type: > fastboot flash boot boot.img
• Reboot and now you should be enjoying your custom rom

I think you should have downloaded the correct RUU.zip for you, and then taken the boot.img from there.

Maybe I misunderstood, but unlocking your bootloader wipes everything. You needed to get another rom to boot.
If you installed recovery, do
1. Enter recovery (hold power + vol down on startup, select recovery)
2. In 4ext, mount usb storage, get any Rom and put in your sdcard.
3. Enable smartflash, flash Rom.
Happy to help.

Sounds like your sd card isn't mounted. To fix this use the all-in-one-kit and return your recovery to stock. After this go into bootloader and and select 'clear storage' followed by reseting to factory settings. This works as only the stock recovery has the ability to remount the sd card. After this go into fastboot and flash a custom recovery using the command 'fastboot flash recovery (recoveryname).img'. Now go into the recovery and mount the sd card. You can now copy over any hboot 2.16 compatible ROM and flash it.

I think the best coarse will be to flash RUU:
1. Lock your bootloader by typing in when in fastboot: fastboot oem lock
2. Select the RUU compatible with the phone here: http://www.androidruu.com/?developer=Ville
3. Connect your phone to fastboot and run the RUU. This will return you to stock.
4. Boot back into bootloader. If you still have your Unlock_code.bin from when you first unlocked your bootloader simply type when in fastboot: fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
If you don't you have to go through the unlock process again at http://www.htcdev.com/
5. Also I would recommend going S-Off which is easily done with moonshine here http://moonshine.io/

Make sure your bootloader is locked and that you downloaded the correct RUU for the company that provided your phone.
If that doesn't work than your sd card isn't mounted so you should select "clear storage" in bootloader which will mount your sd card.

Bootloop (S-ON/No Recovery) :(

Hello,
I have a big problem with my old HTC Sensation.
I tried nearly everything out of other topics, but nothing worked....
The story: Suddenly my Sensation rebooted and from then on it is stuck in an endless bootloop.
The bad thing is, that it was stock/S-ON at this moment.
Informations about the phone:
***UNLOCKED***
Pyramid PVT Ship S-ON RL
HBOOT: 1.27.0000
Radio: 11.24A.3504.31_M
-> I am able to install RUUs (3.33), but after installation i am still in the bootloop
-> I am able to unlock/relock the bootloader
-> I can install a recovery via fastboot, but can't boot into it => bootloop
Maybe you have got a hint to bring the Sensation back to life.
Thank you!
Since your bootloader is unlocked, you can use fastboot to do stuff. Most of the HTC Sensations have a HBOOT version that causes bootloops when flashing roms because their kernel doesn't seem to install properly when flashing roms. The ROM should consist of a file inside the zip, usualy in the kernel folder or in the root of the zip that is called boot.img. That is the kernel. First of all, you need to download the tools that have the fastboot and drivers included. Then unzip all of the contents into a folder. Run and install the drivers that that have come in the folder. Then go into the fastboot and adb folder. Shift rightclick onto the empty space of the folder and click open command window here. Then boot your phone into bootloader mode. You can do this using power button and volume down while your phone is off. Once youre in fastboot mode, navigate to fastboot using up and down volume keys. Then press the power button. Plug in your phone to your computer using your HTC sync cable. Then in the adb and fastboot folder, copy your roms boot.img into the folder. Then in the command window, type 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' without the quotation marks. It should say sending and then writing. The process should take no longer than 20 seconds. Once done, restart your phone. Wolla, your rom should now be working properly!

actually he can't even boot to the recovery in order to flash any rom
so what's the point of flashing the boot.img manually?
You can use Sensation all in one kit v3 to unlock boot loader, read this thread for more detail
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1497404
after unlocking boot loader, then go to this thread to download 4EXT recovery then use kit to flash recovery, remember to download image file, not zip file

boot to recovery, then enable smart flash and flash any cook ROM you want. Remenber to wipe everything after having enable smart flash then flash cook ROM
good luck

actually first has to wipe and then enable smartflash
Thank you for your ideas!
But unfortunattly i tried most of the things.
@ kevinspl2000
I think normaly the RUU would also install the Boot Image.
But I also tried to manualy flash the boot.img out of the RUU via fastboot, but no success.
I am not able to flash a Custom ROM, because of no Recovery...
@stripeqn
The point is that I am not able to boot to Recovery...
I can flash the Recovery via fastboot, but I am not able to boot into it.
I tried different versions of CWMR and 4EXT but no success...
When I click on recovery, it just shows the HTC Logo and bootloop again

I think I have a solution. When I installed my custom recovery at first, I also got bootloops when trying to go into the recovery. What I did, is I refalshed the recovery, and then did fastboot erase cache. It wipes all of the cache, and fixed my bootloop before. Try that and see how we get on...
