can you give some background as what you did to get the phone into this state?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1208507 I tried this to restore my phone thinking it would fix all my problems instead I must have messed something up, and now i'm pretty sure my phone is a paper weight. I managed to run fastboot oem rebootRUU and installed htc_inspire4g_att_RUU_3.20.502.52_US.exe but it hangs at white screen with HTC logo.
Did you try both flash packages?

In the link you provided, on the first page, there were two seperate downloads, depending on when the phone was developed. "Download (restores to official Froyo 2.2.2) (315MB)" and also "Download (restores to official Gingerbread 2.3.3) (309MB)". Was just wondering which one you tried if any at all.
The only thing I can boot into is the 4ext Recovery Touch & hboot Can someone send me stock inspire 4g rom 4ext backup files they are *.tar files [email protected] Or [email protected]
Would that restore my system ?
the phone is

4.Reboot to HBOOT: Shutdown completely (disconnect USB if connected and pull battery if necessary) then while holding down the VOL-DOWN key, press the POWER key for about half a second. The phone should boot into HBOOT, check the PD98IMG.zip for consistency, then prompt you to install. Select VOL-UP to install.
5.Once installed, HBOOT will prompt you to reboot by pressing the POWER button. Do this
I can get to step 4 and instead of flashing the PD98IMG.zip is says parsing and just goes back to hboot. I can't flash anything.
I have been making some MAJOR progress on my phone.. after messing around with a lot of fastboot commands, I found this with helped .. fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot customrecovery.img if forces some images to boot.
Also the link I posted above only will work if my phone is relocked. I can't even make post in the Inspire 4G Android Development , because i'm "too new " to ask a question. But I managed to get his program to run again and I've noticed something. on step 7
7.Once successfully completed, the phone will automatically reboot to HBOOT and begin the process of installing the RUU. The only thing you have to do at this point is acknowledge the prompt to install by pressing VOL-UP. (Note: the RUU install may skip a couple of images during the install but this is normal.
IT FAILS to copy the RUU to the sdcard. and that's what has left my phone without an OS. I've also got the stock RUU htc_inspire4g_att_RUU_3.20.502.52_US.exe to run and complete But my phone hangs after the HTC logo..
So i'm headed in the right direction. Any ideas ???? ~ T
SO I've made a HUGE step in progress yesterday, I installed JellyTime rom and inspire mod and gapps. and forced the boot.img file to boot using fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot boot.img it made the boot.img to run and start JellyTime. I've got android installed on the phone now. The only problem is I need to S-OFF so I can fastboot flash boot boot.img. It won't do it right now, As of now the phone will bootup and hang on the White HTC logo screen, Every attempt to S-OFF the phone has failed so far. Any Ideas ?
Your phone is bricked?

You don't need S-Off to fastboot flash boot.img. Just an unlocked bootloader.

This is not at all helpful. He is asking for boot.img or S-Off help. If he can't do that his ROM is irrelevant.
OMG. this is the worst place for help ever. I have Jelly time installed and I can get into it But only AFTER forcing the boot.img to boot. I CANNOT boot into jellytime by it's self normally.

What does forcing the boot.img means? there is no other way to flash a boot.img that in fastboot if you are S-ON. There is no need to be S-OFF to fastboot flash. In fact, having S-OFF is not enough to enable flash commands in fastboot (you actually need ENG S-OFF for that).
I suggest that you give detail information about the errors and what you are doing if you want to get helped.
Hello,
I have htc inspire. My phone was new sept 2011 and worked until july 2012. My phone was set to charge only and usb debug disable and was never rooted. One night I put the phone to charge and the next day it I turned it on but it never made past the white screen. I have tried to put the rom on sd card as PD98IMG. I tried RUU. The phone lists:

When I try the PD98IMG method using a goldcard, it gets stuck:

[1] BOOTLOADER -UPDATING
[2] BOOT
[3] RECOVERY
etc
Please help
Not sure but What helped me get past the HTC logo screen is just recovering the old Stock of the phone.
The link provided is to return back to old stock AT&T Roms.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1385016
Boot your phone in Bootloader mode (PWR + VOL DOWN).
Run the RUU Installer.
For S-Off, Advanced Hack Kit (AAHK) was quite a big help to me.
My problem is I have s-on. Phone freezes when I try pd98img on sd goldcard. I can connect with fastboot but I am not sure how to use it. The phone was in charge only & usb debug off when it use to work.

HBOOT-1.27.0000
Radio-11.21.3504.13_2
OpenADSP-v02.6.0.226.00.0104

Symptom:
I'm Stuck in a bootloop after i flash the 3.24 firmware and the Elegancia ROM.
First Time the roms boot normaly, then i reboot with the USB Cable attach.
And here come the BootLoop
Try to go to recovery, but bootLoop too.........
So I can go in Hboot, i can do FASTBOOT command and that all.
I try to flash CWM from fastboot -- > Ok for flash but wont go in recovery..
Try to flash 1.17 firmware then flash ROM.zip from 1.35Ruu Europe release --> Bootloop
Try to Flash 3.24 Ruu Same BOOTLOOP..
So what can I do community ?
What Solution i have ?
Why i cant flash a recovery since i Have S-OFF ??
MAYBE :
- Maybe i flash a Ruu who was Corrupt
- Maybe the radio don't match the Ruu i Tried to flash
- Maybe i'm just a simple mind guy
It seems that the 3.24 Firmware from SebastianFM with hBoot unlock have some problem, cause it seems that i'm not the only one who got several problem after flash this Firmware.

I got you. Actually you do not have any custom recovery installed. Actually if you flash any RUU it will wipe your recovery partition and install stock recovery. So first you flash a custom recovery. I know you tried to flash CWM.But you got bootloop. Did you delete the file PG58IMG.zip from sdcard after flashing CWM ???? Please redo the following steps.
STEPS TO FOLLOW:
1. Download recovery v5.0.0.8 for the Sensation here .
2. Copy the PG58IMG file into the Root folder of your SD card (The main Folder of your Memory Card)
3. Turn off your phone.
4. Remove the battery.
5. Wait a minute.
6. Put the battery again.
7. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
8. The phone will boot into bootloader.
9. Press Volume up to Accept when it asks" Do you want to start the update"
10. Press Power Off to Reboot back to android after installation is successful (normal screen with homescreen)
11. It may not boot . Do not worry because you may have wiped out evrything.
12. Power off your phone.
13. Delete PG58IMG from your memory card .
14. Download your favorite custom ICS ROM.
15. Put it on the root of your SDCARD.
16. Remove the battery.
17. Wait a minute.
18. Put the battery again.
19. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
20. The phone will boot into bootloader.
21. Select "Recovery" by pressing Volume Down Key.
22. Press Power button after selecting Recovery.
23. Your phone will reboot into clockworkmod recovery.
24. Wipe system, boot, cache, data , and dalvik cache
24. Install your ROM from SDCARD.
25. Wait at least 7 to 10 minutes for first boot
26. Your phone will be normal now.
NOTE:
******* You must be SuperCID to do the above. Please also note , from your preveous post, I understand that you have V3.24 Firmware. Remember only ICS rom will work with this firmware. So do not flash Gingerbread ROM.**********
hi help is appreciate,
`So i tried to follow your step 3 times . One with 1.17 Firmware 3.12 & 3.24.
every time after flashing the recovery, i reboot and when i go to recovery the phone go into boot loop.

Which ROM you want to flash ??
Why did you try all three firmware ???? You should choose your firmware according to your ROM you want to flash.
You may get boot loop after flashing recovery as there might be no rom installed.
So as I said after flashing recovery you should power off your device. Then boot into bootloader by the preveous method. ( Step 3 to 7 ).Selct recovery by volume down key. Then press power button. You will be in recovery. And flash your ROM. But your ROM should match with the firmware.
Ok but How could i flash a ROm if i can't go to recovery ...
Ok maybe you miss understand, i got boot loop when i want to go to recovery too
Please tell me what ROM you want to flash. Post the link here. And once again you give the details of your boot loader screen. Do you have fastboot/adb set up on your PC?

So, Let fix the recovery first.
Download this attatched recovery (4Ext Touch).
MD5 Checksum : d31d7df8d275f7234416af6a2e8b1c73
Check the md5check sum after download. If it matches , go to the next step else redownload.
Put the downloaded recovery.img in the directory of your fastboot binary.
Connect your phone with pc via usb cable.
Reboot your phone into bootloader.
Open fastboot command from your pc.
Now type the following command in fastboot.
" fastboot flash recovery recovery.img "
After flashing type " fastboot reboot"
Now try to go to recovery. If it is successfull then I will tell you the ROM flashing part.

if yo can go in fastboot your likley not bricked.
you can always flash the original or similar ruu (not a rom) you phone came with in fastboot.
so you will go to stock with your hboot and recovery and to see if it boots.
then do the whole process over. s-off, then root.
then check your mid and cid if its supported.
and only then update to ics.
btw whats the type of phone? branded or og htc
my phone is from vodaphone so branded.
What do you mean by flashing your original or similar Ruu ?
The one coming with the phone out of box ?
i flash via command, .exe or PM58IMG.zip ?
i don't write my original cid is it bad ?

yes the rom the phone came with or close to it (any with recent ota`s).
always flash the ruu.exe because it wil recover the hboot, radio and recovery to stock. (zipfiles can be easily corrupted)
so go in fastboot usb (via power and volume button) and run the ruu.exe
then s-off/root the device
when s-off you should be able to install recovery within the original rom like cwr or ext4 updater tool, backup, then check your mid and cid, get a correct zipfile for the ics firmware update, flash arhd (it includes the lastest ext4 recovery). then change roms if you like.
you then also can check if the phone is working correctly.
if you already changed to supercid, i think its oke.
if not, on the forum there is al list of cid`s from different countrys and brands.
also there is al list of originals ruu the devices came with.
i assume you have done custom roms before ics came out?
so the cupercid was applied correctly?
i never supercid my devices (on a personal note)
and always flashed the testroms (to get the latest firmware) with no probs.
but if your branded its mandatory.
i've already flash 3 Ruu from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559
and all finish in a bootloop with no stock recovery... almost all Ruu run fine with no alert
ruu i flashed already :

i have searched and have found many people with similar problems but none of the solutions have helped me, that said i apologise if ive missed the answer.
so ive used htcdev to unlock my bootloader which went fine then ive decided to "s-off" my phone which has gone fine, well im "s-off"ed however im stuck on the juopunutbear screen everytime i turn the phone on.
ive tried guide on the unlimited.io website - controlbear.exe -r, controlbear.exe -f. when i carry out the next point when i get to "fastboot flash recovery recovery_backup.img" i get a failed.
this i believe has happened because i started the process in kgs1992's aio app which crashed so i shut it and completed in controlbear, i cant think where else i went wrong, ive read loads of guides.

And are you still struck at the juopunutbear screen?
Then what error you got when you used fastboot command?
... wait why did you do juopunutbear when you are already soff?
Edit:
Got the point..
Try those fastboot commands again
Connect the phone properly .. you should connect the phone properly.. If connected properly the phone says FASTBOOT USB .. if it's just saying FASTBOOT then you didn't have drivers installed or the connection is not proper.
If it's saying HBOOT press power button once.. That should take you to required screen

If Struck on juopunutbear screen:
Well, there's an easy solution if you're struck on the juopunutbear boot screen on your phone. Follow the steps in order:
1.Open the folder where you've extracted the juopunutbear setup files.
2.There'll be a image file in the folder called "boot_backup".
3.Copy that file to the folder you've created during the bootloader unlocking process from HTCDev. The folder contains the fastboot.exe, AdbWinApi.dll etc files, and probably it is in your c:\Android.
4.Rename the copied boot_backup image file to "boot" only.
5.Take out your battery out, reinsert it and boot into the bootloader mode using volume down + power button.
6.You'll see a red writing " fastboot usb"
7.See your computer screen now, the current folder where you copied and renamed.
8.Holding "shift" button on your keyboard, right click inside the folder and select "open command promp window here".
9.Type the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and press enter.
10.Then type" fastboot reboot" and press enter.
11.Your phone should reboot normally now.
[****The above method is based on stock sensation rom. If you're struck in a custom rom, then in step 3, copy the boot.img file of the custom rom from where you've downloaded your rom and continue the steps******]
Make sure you unplug all usb devices when doing juopunutbear method, I couldn't do it for hours then I unplugged all devices and restarted PC. It worked on 1st try.

Thank you! You have helped me a lot!
I have a Sensation S that I was trying to install a custom rom onto. I messed it up a bit though. I unlocked it trough htcdev.com but never got S-off. I also didnt make a backup. So now I have this:
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT2.02.0002
RADIO-3831.19.00.110
eMMC-boot
And I'm getting nowhere. I am not able to install any roms (they all get error messages or just doesn't work) and I'm not able to install a RUU. I have tried taking the recover image from several RUUs, flashed them and then installed the RUUs after I locked the bootloader. No luck there so far. Innstall gets errors halfway trough.
I really need to fix this and I've been trying for 4-5 hours now. I really hope anyone has some solution to this. Right now I would be very happy just to be able to use my phone again no matter the rom.
Sensation S? You mean Desire S, right?
Download: http://www.4ext.net/ddl/saga/recovery.zip
Unpack the image.
Boot your phone into fastboot mode.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Leave fastboot mode, go to recovery.
What happens?

Now you can flash a ROM
I recommend ViperSaga: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1983604
After flashing the ROM, open up the zip on your computer, extract the boot.img, and flash it via fastboot.
So:
1. Wipe data/factory reset from within recovery
2. Flash the ROM (you can use adb to push it to your sdcard even while you're in recovery; e.g. adb push rom.zip /emmc/)
3. When done, reboot; immediately after pressing 'reboot' in your recovery hold down VOL- or you'll be stuck on the white HTC screen and have to wait until the battery runs dry
4. Go to fastboot
5. Extract the boot.img from the rom zip on your computer
6.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
7. Done
Hi,
If it failed several times after RUU and it got stuck on the HTC Logo screen and bootloader is accessible then please try the solution in this thread

Hey, First post and it going to be about whether my phone is bricked for good or not. =/ I'd really appreciate some help as I've clearly not researched enough into this.
-My Rogers HTC One X had previously been rooted and unlocked to hboot 1.09 with cyanogenmod.
-I wanted to install Android Revolution HD, so i figure I needed an hboot update. I went ahead and flashed the phone with the 'firmware.zip' in 'OTA_EVITA_UL_JB_45_S_Rogers_WWE_3.17.631.2_0.23a.32.09.29_10.128.32.34a_release_299850qstr7rxdbfuofl6j.zip' (HUGE MISTAKE)
-After flashing, I tried to install Android Revolution HD but it had crashed mid way.
-Im able to access hboot and Im also able to go into fastboot and recovery (recovery-clockwork-6.0.2.8-evita).
-Rebooting the phone results in a blank screen after the HTC loading screen. So no adb.
My hboot shows this:

Nov 26 2012,18:37:14:-1
I've tried locking it, flashing it with PJ83IMG.zip but it says: 'FAILED (remote: 44 hboot version check fail)'.
I've tried running 'RUU_Evita_UL_Rogers_WWE_1.94.631.3_Radio_0.18as.32.09.28L_10.103.32.24L_release_268972_signed.exe' but it gets half way and has Error 155.
Can anyone recommend a rom that will work in this configuration?
Any chance that I can still get S-off on the phone?
Any way to recover the phone at all? Just to be clear, I've flashed my Rogers phone with a Rogers OTA.
Thanks!
Dude you are ****ed! no way to recover from that!..
J/K
All joking aside.
Download TWRP 2.3.3.1 It is compatible with the most ROMS and isn't buggy. Check MD5 and fastboot flash recovery twrprecovery.zip <-- replace with actual zip file name.
then fastboot erase cache
Boot to recovery
Wipe cache dalvik system and factory reset and flash any ROM designed for evita.
Because you're S-ON and on an HBOOT >= 1.14, you'll also have to extract the boot.img from the rom and flash it separately "fastboot flash boot boot.img", unless otherwise indicated on the ROM's thread, usually in the OP.
As a side note, you shouldn't have rooted, you have a lot of reading to do.

exad, Thanks for taking the time to write up the instructions for me. I've been able to get the phone to boot again. =) I do have some reading to do haha.
Given whats already done, did I put my phone in a situation where I've limited myself for future modding? What I'm really wondering is if I should be trying to get S-off so I can downgrade my firmware? Will I run into any issues with just running the phone as it is?

If you are going to s off, no need to really downgrade. This because you are turning security checks off. So it actually makes things a bit easier, and decreases the chances of bricking. I'm s off and on hboot 1.14 and was able to flash plenty of roms without a computer.

You're not limited. You just need to fastboot flash boot boot.img any time you flash a ROM. If you're not a flashaholic like most of us, it's no big deal.
I wouldn't RUU with S-ON though, even though you didn't supercid, I bricked without supercid running an RUU after rooting.
So, if you don't plan to RUU you don't need to S-OFF either.
If you do intend to S-OFF, since you didn't need to supercid to unlock your bootloader, you would need to hex edit your CID to 11111111 if you wanted to S-OFF.
If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask but I suggest reading the stickies in all the sections. Good Luck
Thanks for the info everyone. I'll be keeping that in mind.

I got a Telus HTC one x yesterday. Spent all day reading about rooting etc and finally went ahead and did it. The unlocking part went without a hitch. I then went to install the clockwork recovery and I think I used an outdated one, because after I did it, it wouldn't boot into recovery. I could get into the bootloader, but checking anything else it wouldn't do anything. At that time I was still able to boot up my phone as normal. I then saw an updated clockwork recovery and tried that one, and it still wouldn't respond when I clicked on recovery. Now I can't do anything except get into the bootloader. My screen says the exact same thing as the original poster in terms of

I'm so upset right now. I read your instructions on what you suggested to the OP but theirs was Rogers and mines Telus, and I never did have a custom ROM on there, and I don't have a clear cache option, just a 'clear storage'
Even selecting the 'reset phone' doesn't work. I'm ready to cry lol. I don't want to touch anything without guidance so I don't screw it up even further. I know this is the rogers forum but it's what came up when doing a google search.
Please help me. Please tell me this can be fixed. :crying:
Don't use CWM, use TWRP instead. Find version 2.3.3.1 at goo.im (just Google TWRP 2.3.3.1 evita download). Check the md5 of the download is correct. I'm assuming you have fastboot on your pc.
Put the TWRP recovery.img in your fastboot folder
Boot phone into bootloader, wait for it to say "fastboot usb" on the screen of your phone
Open a command prompt in that folder on your pc
Type in the following command:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-TWRP-2.3.3.1-evita.img (whatever the name of the recovery image is, I think that's right)
It will now write the recovery to your phone, wait for it to finish, it should only take a few seconds
Now type the following command in:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you should be able to disconnect your phone and flash superuser.zip in your new recovery and have root access.

omg!!!!! TY TY TY TY TY!!!!!!!!
It flashed into recovery!!!!!
I can't find where my superuser went...is there a way I can get it onto my phone? At this point I'm so nervous about screwing anything up that I'm afraid to play (which is rare for me as I'm normally quite good at all this stuff)
Do I really need the superuser? I'm planning on putting the ViperXL 3.2.7 rom on my phone. Can I just go straight to installing the rom?
I know where I went wrong now though. I used the international root instructions and not the AT&T ones as I assumed since I was Telus instead of Rogers or AT&T that that was the one I needed. Ugh! I feel like such an idiot!! I had android for quite a while then went to iphone for a little while (mistake) and had gotten so good at doing everything with those and forgot most of the steps involved with rooting android and the terminology. I'm happy to be back home with android!
You can just go ahead and flash ViperXL, that is pre-rooted so you'll be good to go. I just assumed you had a ROM running, so flashing the superuser zip would have just given that ROM root access.
Now, just make sure you stay here in the One XL (AT&T) forum. Make sure you only flash ROMs from here, because flashing one of the International ROMs can brick your phone, and we don't want that.

I will be staying here!! lol
Just to be sure I have this correct...
I downloaded Viper and the boot img.
I'm going to go back to my cmd prompts, install the boot img
I'm getting hung up with understanding how to place the zip on my phone storage...My computer isn't showing it as being a separate drive.
I keep getting 'failed' errors with everything in TWRP. If I try to mount as USB storage, my computer says it needs to be formatted...
When I try to do anything else it shows up with failed.
Ok here's what you'll need to do:
Boot your phone into the bootloader (hold power and volume down key together, release power after a second but keep holding volume down until you're in bootloader)
Select recovery
Once recovery boots up, connect to pc with usb cable, select mount in recovery menu, then select mount storage
Your phone should now show up on your pc as a drive, copy the entire ROM zip to your phone
Once it's copied, do eject and safely remove the drive from your pc, and hit unmount on your phone screen
Hit the home button (little house on bottom left) in recovery
From main recovery select wipe, once in wipe menu you must wipe cache, dalvik cache, factory reset, and system
Once you've wiped all those, hit the home button again
Select install from the main recovery menu, then find the ROM you previously copied to your sd card and select it, then swipe to install, let the install finish (please note: if you're installing viper, it will have a few options to select during the install, select the ones you want. But right at the end of the install process there will be a checkbox for "reboot device now" and it will be checked, make sure you uncheck that before you hit finish/done)
Now you'll see two options, wipe cache/dalvik is one, do that, once that's done hit the home button again
From the main menu, hit reboot, and then bootloader, your phone will now boot back into the bootloader and fastboot usb should show up in red text on your screen if your usb cable is still connected
Now back to the pc, Copy the boot.img from the ROM zip and place it in your fastboot folder
Make sure you're connected with usb and fastboot usb is showing on your phone screen
Open a command prompt in your fastboot folder on pc and type in:
fastboot devices
You should see a device number return in the command prompt, if that shows up you're connected properly, so now type in the following command:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
This will flash the boot.img to your phone, let it finish
Once that's done you can reboot and you should be able to reboot into your new ROM

It's not mounting...just keep getting a message from my computer that the drive needs to be formatted before I can use it...
btw, ty for all your help on this you've been amazingly helpful!
You may have corrupted your sd card. You'll have to format it, which means you'll lose all your data off it unfortunately. Do that first and then start again.

Okay I (finally) manage to unlock the bootloader and root my HOX running jellybean 4.1.1. Now I want to install ViperXL (or ViperX, whichever is more preferred) as a custom rom but I have had boot issues that I want to avoid. The last time i flashed ViperXL after rooting my phone, it would load past the HTC screen only to stay on a blank, black screen and do nothing even though its turned on. I never got to the ViperXL screen. I ran ViperXL before when my phone was running ICS so I should be able to run it again even after updating my phone to Jellybean. right? I should point out what I did differently this time while rooting was install ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.3.1 instead of TWRP. Below is my Bootloader info as I feel it will be necessary in solving my problem. Sorry if this was posted by someone else and dealt with elsewhere, I couldn't find exactly what I was needing help with.

You have to flash boot image in fastboot.
1. Extract boot.img from rom zip.
2. Put in fastboot directory
3. Connect phone to PC
4. adb reboot bootloader
5. (once in bootloader) fastboot flash boot boot.img
Sent from my evita
Until you get S-OFF, you will need to always flash the kernel from roms separately using fastboot.

Stuck on Viper XL splash screen reboot
I understand what I did, now, after reading posts. I installed the Viper XL ROM via TWRP but my phone is S=On!
I didn't realize I needed to flash the boot.img file. Now my One X is stuck in ViperXL splash screen and I cant get into recover or anything because it just continues to restart the phone. I will glady donate money to anyone who can get me to at least get my phone to boot into recovery.
I am not a noob completely I have rooted and added custom roms to a lot of HTC phones, the S on and off thing is new and I messed up not taking more time to work on my S off issue before attempting to install the ROM.
Just hold the volume down key, then when it restarts it'll go into bootloader.
