Hi - first time posting, but I've benefited from many a XDA thread in the past. I'm hopeful that someone can help me.
I tried to put CyanogenMod on my AT&T HTC One X, and was able to unlock the bootloader and put a new boot/recovery image on it. After that, I got into a boot loop and haven't been able to get into recovery since. I've tried flashing new boot.img, new recovery (CyanogenMod and TWRP) and even though I can pause the boot loop to get to the bootloader, it won't let me into recovery.
HBOOT is 2.14, and I can get fastboot connectivity from my computer.
Any ideas/help?
Try flashing TWRP recovery again via fastboot, then I've that's finished flashing give this command:
fastboot erase cache
Then:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now try to enter recovery.

Just tried that, and no dice. Just keeps on rebooting. If I select the RECOVERY option, it just reboots again - never enters recovery.
You might need to RUU, are you s-off?
Also, where are you downloading TWRP from?

No, not s-off. I tried that, but I can't get it to boot into Android (after I flash the RUU zip and try to boot, it shows "FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))".

An RUU isn't a zip, it's an exe program. If you don't have s-off you shouldn't do it anyway.

Yes, if you are s-on and try to run the 3.18 RUU, you will brick. You can't run an older RUU, due to your hboot version (2.14) and s-on.

So, I downloaded a fresh version of TWRP per the Evita guide on CyanogenMod, and was able to get into recovery. Thanks for the tip!
Problem is, now I'm unable to flash a ROM because I can't mount /sdcard. I've tried other recoveries, but none of them will mount it, either. Tips?

Did you do a factory reset from bootloader? If so, you've corrupted it and it'll need to be formatted. Go into TWRP recovery, connect to pc, select mount, then mount usb storage. Now you'll need to format it in Windows to fat32 format.

After flashing CM10, coming from CleanRom 4.5 and doing a factory reset, I get stuck at the bootscreen. I've let it stay there for hours but every time I flash it, it stays stuck there, Any suggestions to get this to work? Radio is 0.19as.32.09.11_2
You have to do a full wipe, factory reset, cache, dalvik cache, system. Then flash. That should get u booted.

Did you do the update to 2.20 (doesn't matter if done safely or not)?
If so, you need to manually flash the boot.IMG in the zip.
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
If you are 2.20 you have to make sure to manually flash the boot.img.
Also make sure when you are about to flash you wipe everything. You have to wipe cache, dalvik, factory reset, & system. Do it twice just to be sure.
The first time I flashed CM10 I didn't wipe system. I got stuck on boot screen and it wiped my sd card and then my sd card wouldn't mount. I had to relock my bootloader, run an RUU, and start over. Second time it stuck and worked great. Went back to CR for the camera.

extract boot.img place it into your adb folder reboot your phone into bootloader while connected to your pc. Open a cmd prompt in your adb folder type fastboot flash boot.img it will then flash the boot.img once done reboot and your fixed.

Copy the boot.img to your adb/fastboot directory on your computer. Boot the phone into the bootloader. Open a command prompt from your adb/fastboot directory on your computer. "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
You do still have to flash the zip through TWRP.
If you have 2.20, you have to flash any radio and boot.img through fastboot. Personally, the 2.20 radio has been the best for me so I haven't had the need to flash another.

I'm pretty sure the new HBoot means no radio flashing at all.

you're using Cm10 from our Dev section built by h8rift?
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.

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.

Have you tried RUUing back to stock and re-rooting?
Mount usb storage in TWRP recovery and format (fat32) the sd in Windows. It looks as though you've done a factory reset in bootloader at some point which corrupts the sd card. Once you've done that I'd suggest trying to flash another ROM, if you still have problems you'll probably need to RUU as Rolltribe suggested.

And the format didn't work? An RUU is an exe program that's run through Windows while the phone is connected, usually in fastboot mode.

Having about the same issue on my phone. I have TWRP 2.5 on there. Tried to re-install viperxl and it goes through the install OK and then just boot loops.
Tried to use the RUU listed above and it fails with an error code of "Error 159 image error"
The RUU is going from Image version 2.20.502.7 to image ver 3.18.502.6
I had a different error with another RUU image I downloaded from HTC but didn't take notes on error.
Any idea's?
TWRP 2.5 is your problem, it's full of bugs. Download TWRP 2.6 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 can enter recovery on your phone and flash again and you should be fine.

Hey there!
I'm pretty new to the Android platform. I've been on iOS for many years.
I already flashed a custom firmware on a Moto G, which worked fine. (SlimKat)
I thought about doing the same thing with my HTC One X.
GSM version (Model: PJ83100)
Current device state:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
EVITA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.14.0000
RADIO-0.23a.32.01.29
OpenDSP-v31.1.0.45.0815
eMMC-boot
Nov 26 2012, 18:37:14:-1
Unlike the Moto G Bootloader, I'm unable to erase any partition but the cache. Example:
./fastboot erase system
erasing 'system'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
I am not able to boot into the OS or the recovery partition anymore, so they have probably been wiped. When I reboot the device, it's either a boot loop or it simply shuts down.
I already tried to flash CWM and TWRP. Each of those were successful, at least according to the terminal... Unfortunately, same thing happens when the phone reboots (unable to access recovery).
I also tried to flash SlimKat with the "./fastboot flash zip file_name.zip" command, even if it isn't supposed to work (I believe). It wasn't successful.
In despair, I flashed the boot image from the ROM but still without result.
I did all of those in the FastBoot window and on the RUU mode (./fastboot oem rebootRUU).
Both stuck at the same points.
If anyone knows how to fix this, it would be really appreciated.
All the posts related to the issue did not help me in any ways.
Thank you!
You need to work out why your recovery flashes aren't working, you need a custom recovery to install custom ROMs on this device, flashing them through fastboot will not work. Can you explain in detail and step by step the method you use to flash the recovery please?

I redownloaded the file from the internet so it can't be corrupted twice.
I believe that I also tried with CWM with same results.
None of those even want to boot.
And now since yesterday, I'm not even able to boot my phone.
I contacted HTC and their hard reset procedure did nothing.

It can be corrupted twice, it can be corrupted a thousand times in a row, that's why you need to check the md5 like I suggested. Did you do that??
Forget what HTC have to say, any advice they would give is irrelevant for a modified device. In fact, if you've performed a factory reset from the bootloader you've also just corrupted your sd card.

Forget what HTC have to say, any advice they would give is irrelevant for a modified device. In fact, if you've performed a factory reset from the bootloader you've also just corrupted your sd card.

I'm not sure how to verify the md5. You want me to verifiy the file on the computer or after is has been transfered to the phone?
Like I said, I'm not able to do a factory reset from the bootloader as all "format erase --partiton--" return in errors.
These commands helped me to corrrectly install Slimkat on my Moto G, but how can you do the same when it's not possible to wipe the phone in any ways? From the recovery partition, that would be possible. I'm able to flash the recovery, but not to access it. As this said, I'm really stuck.
The One X does not have a SD card btw. At least, there look to be no slot for it.
Thank you!

Ok, you don't know how to verify the md5, but you can overcome that problem by using Google to search how to do it.
So you've attempted a factory reset from the bootloader, it gave you errors, and it has corrupted your sd card.
I'm aware that this device doesn't have an sd card slot, it has internal memory (or a virtual sd card), which is commonly referred to as the sd card.

Hi everybody !
I think i'm in the right section to expose you my problem, and no one on this forum had been confronted to such fails ! but i'm new in this forum to write threads (altough i already read many of them)
i'll try to be quick :
a year ago i bought a htc one sv , i unlocked the bootloader and then i stopped because i was with windows 8 and it was boring with usb 3.0 (i can use windows 7 right now..!). then i got some problems with "android.phone", or android.process.media" stopped et i believed my phone dead, but i learned things, installed the TWRP recovery 2.7.0.1 and flashed therom stock odexed jelly bean which allowed me to get back to stock my phone! (the twrp was with the root (or the rom odexed...) so i became rooted! but when i updates the superuser app few months ago, i got problems of binaries so i didn't install the last supersu app update (2/3 weeks ago). unfortunately,2 weeks ago, my phone did a reboot in the night (which awoke me) but in a bootloop...
First i tried factory reset then clean storage du bootloader, but it did nothing.
at the beginning i could not acceed to the recovery, but, lucky i am, a boot in fastboot usb and now from the phone, i can go to my recovery twrp 2.7.0.1 -or 2.8.4.0 by boot fastboot usb) however, TWRP shows "no os installed"it s been 2 weeks that i'm searching, but without results... that's why i'm asking here to the best in android world ^^
the things that i already tried without results:
flash the same zip odexed from recovery and from fastboot usb
flash hboot, but i'm s-on
update recovery ( i only can boot by fastboot usb)
flash rom custom venom with the installer in the rom
find files for sdcard "pl80diag.zip et nbh et pl80img.zip et nbh"
but i'm S-on and can't be S-off, the process with moonshine stopp when the devices has to boot...
i also tried adb sideload and simple adb with the phone in recovery recovery but:
recovery is unable to mount internal storage partitions (unable to mount int-sd, etc............)
my phone shows "tampered" "unlocked" and "s-on" hboot "2.00.000".. ask for more...
from now on, when i boot the phne i don't have any more bootloop, i'm directly in the hboot..!
i tried extract rom.zip from RUU.exe of ICS but i didn't used it...
so i'm wondering if there is a way to unbrick this soft bricked devices 'casue i already tried all of the unbrick things for soft brick but the partitions being unable to mount killed all my tries... i hope i gave you many informations ! all the suggestions and ideas are welcome!
(i can't find nbh files..)
thanks for reading this busy text, i'm a bit bored of using a very old phone in remplacement if i can repair my lover htc..!
i trust you people i'll check and answer suggestions asap!
Well, you are S-on, there is not much you can do.
Flash twrp recovery 2.7.x or 2.8.x and try to flash a rom for your device model.
Don't forget to do a full wipe in twrp and to flash the boot.img of the rom you are using with fastboot.

it that i was thinking... i already try this (i have already twrp without booting in fastboot or flashing) but the fact is : twrp cannot mount any partitions so the step "writing" is impossible.. even the wipe fails..
If i remember right, in TWRP 2.8, under Wipe - Advanced there must be a button "Repair broken filesystem".
Not sure if this is working on SV, but it is worth a try i think.
What version of this phone do you own?

hey guys, it's been a while but i was searching during all this time. I've experienced some things with adb shell and what i saw :
my partitions are messed up, not annihilated, but messed up. 2 reasons : partitions can't be mounted in the last recovery of TWRP, and when i use Fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk0 and the partition table of mmcblk0 and what I see is that my partitions table are not in disk order. My partitions are overlapping.. Perhaps it will help. I tried some ext2fd and mkfs.ext4 but it as not worked properly... maybe you have ideas... because it's been about months that my phone is useless and a paperweight.
by the way on my computer under windows 10, my phone used to be in qhsus_dload..! perhaps there are issues with that!
Thanks.

You need an RUU to fix you up.

Well if you can extract the RUU from the .exe program then you can boot to your hboot then select fastboot from the screen. Plug device to your pc then enter:
Confirm pc reads phone and displays serial number before proceeding...
Code:
fastboot devices
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Code:
fastboot flash zip RUU.zip
If terminal shows it has completed successfully then reboot:
Code:
fastboot reboot
If terminal shows it didn't complete successfully then do not reboot but try again:
Code:
fastboot flash zip RUU.zip
I went through this last weekend for my K2CL because I was converting my device to f2fs and messed up in the process.

OK well i'll use my computer under windows 7, but i know that when i extract the ruu from the .exe (using the folder temp, you know) the file can't be flash with recovery but i'll give a try with fastboot (fastboot devices always work) if this can work you'll be my heroe haha because i've tried so many things with the adb shell the recoveries, the flash with fastboot (which taught me some things about android) but nothing worked!

Yea, the RUU extracted is not made to be flashed in the custom recovery or any recovery for that matter. Must be flashed with the device in RUU mode as instructed in my last comment. If you are S-On then make sure you relock the bootloader first before doing it. If you are S-Off then it does not matter. It will fix your device. Like I said, I borked my partitions last weekend and the RUU fixed it right up for me with no problems. However, I used a decrypted RUU but the process is still the same.

to decrypt the RUU You use smthing on Ubuntu right ? or you tried something else because i guess it's better when decrypted

On linux in general and decrypting the RUU is way more complicated and difficult than it sounds. An encrypted RUU will do you just fine.

What do you mean by putting the phone in "recovery"? You shouldn't be in your recovery when using fastboot. You should be in your bootloader. Power off device, then press and hold the volume down key and the power key. Release when you see your hboot appear. Using your volume keys to move up and down you want to highlight the option, fastboot. Hit the power button to select fastboot. You are now in fastboot mode. You will see fastboot in red text. Plug your device into your pc and you should now see, fastboot usb, in red text. Using the terminal on your pc proceed to lock your bootloader using fastboot. Then proceed with my instructions in the other post.

yeah of course i did it. Being in the recovery was just a try with a toolkit which is used to relock.
i know how fastboot works but i've got error messages with fastboot oem lock and by flashing the ruu the last thing after the signature checking fails because of my bootloader unlocked i guess.
