I've been searching forums for 2 days on this and have found nothing specifically for this. While I was flashing a ROM I somehow corrupted my sd card (internal memory). everything was wiped out except the boot loader and twrp 2.3.3 . Normally that wouldn't be an issue except my pc wont recognize the usb. I have the latest drivers for it and before it corrupted it saw everything just fine I am on windows 8.1 and it says it can't recognize the usb plugged in (states that the device might be malfunctioning). I can get fastboot USB, but device manager states usb device failed enumeration. I've tried going through ADB manually and it wont see my HOX, none of the RUU .exe's will see it either. I'm currently on HBOOT 2.15. How can I at least get USB back so I can install twrp 2.5 and fix the internal storage?
On older versions of Windows when you connect a corrupted sd card it prompts you to format it. I don't have any experience with Windows 8 but going by your post I'm guessing you're not getting that prompt. On later versions of TWRP (2.6) you can fix a corrupt sd card by wiping the sd card in the advanced wipe menu, I'm not sure if that's true for the older version of TWRP you're running, it's worth a try though. If that fails maybe try using a PC with an older Windows version installed to see if it shows up so you can format it.

I'm loading win 7 onto a laptop as I speak. Hope this works. Thanks
update: It ended up being a windows 8 issue. While I didnt get the format prompt the 3.18 RUU was able to see it under windows 7 and flash it back to stock. Now I have a little work to do to get a recent version of twrp and a good rom back onto it.
Thanks again

I have a 2.2.0 hboot 1.14 unlocked, tampered CID1111111 One XL from AT&T. I was trying to try my first cooked ROM Friday night and I think I may have totally screwed up. I did a "factory reset" from the bootloader instead of from TWRP 2.3.1. My phone gets to "initiating Swagger" and gets stuck. I tried to re-ROM but TWRP can't find the directory. Everything appears to have been over-written. I tried to use the 2.2.0 RUU to start over, but now my computer doesn't recognize the device in HTCsync. I tried to re-image the hboot with a stock 2.2.0 image to see if that would at least start up so that I could use the RUU. It doesn't appear to have helped. HTCsync still doesn't recognize my phone although it now alerts me that the device "MyHTC" is now on the computer. I tried to mount the USB with TWRP and the computer tells me that the drive is "unformatted" and asks to "format?" So far I've cancelled out of that.
Is this device borked beyond repair?
Update: The solution was very sinple. Reformatted SD in FAT32. Re-downloaded AOKP and Gapps. Extracted the boot.img file from AOKP. Copied zipped AOKP and Gaaps to newly formatted SD. Flashed the boot.img file in fastboot using the Team Nocturnal tool. Everything booted normally and runs great!
Many thanks to area51avenger and crappyvate!! You guys are what makes this community rock! Keep up the good work.
I believe I had this problem yesterday when trying to install AOKP, I didn't flash the boot.img before I ran the .zip in TWRP. I was stuck in the boot screen and then wiped all my data. Couldn't mount SD from TWRP, had to install HTCSync on my computer, relock the bootloader, and run the RUU of what I was previously on. I tried to go to 1.85, but it didn't allow me because I was previously on 2.20, getting the RUU for 2.20 and running it gave me back stock Sense, and I re-unlocked my bootloader and was able to successfully install AOKP after flashing the boot.img.
Don't factory reset from bootloader.
Format card to fat32, mount usb storage in twrp, copy aokp over.
Install as per the 1000 threads here

So you can actually reboot in recovery ? reformat your sd card (fat32). Try to flash the boot.img of the rom you're on, reflash the romzip and see where that takes you. Note: there seems to be some issue with htc sync while you flash so make sure to disable htc sync.
I tried to install drumlock app and my phone restarted and went into the recovery. I can't mount the sd card either to flash the rom again. I dont have anything backed up. I am really lost and need someone's guidance.
I had the same issue one time what I did is I mounted the phone as a USB drive (don't know if it works with CWM, if not just flash TWRP recovery) and formated the SD card (when I mounted it Windows asked to format the SD card; Format in FAT32!). As you can imagine all data from the SD will be lost but your SD card is mounted again and you should be able to boot again. If booting still doesn't work try putting a ROM on the SD via mount as USB drive function and try to flash it. It should work.
worked but another problem happened :[

Thanks for that advice. Everything worked. I formatted the cd card and it is now seen in TWRP where I installed the viper one s rom. BUT! Now my phone just keeps on restarting - it shows the htc logo with a red banner under it and just restarts and does it all over again. I can get into boorloader mode If i get lucky pressing it before it restarts, yet the bootloader wont let me get into recovery. I am going to try other methods I guess but I am wondering if there is a way just to use RUU and restore it to stock?

You must've done something to your recovery when you formatted your sdcard. Try flashing TWRP again. You can easily bring your device back to stock by running the RUU. Info can be found around the forum.
Relock bootloader and run a official HTC RUU (warning: itll update hboot).
what worked but now its stuck

I tried that method and flashed utb rom and when i restarted it its stuck on the loading screen...so i tried the different viper one s rom and nothing either. After i locked it i tried the RUU but it gives me the error 150 ...Im on the right track I know...its probably something minor that I keep on overlooking.
gives me error 150

I also tried this method but it brings up the error 150. Could this be the recovery that is causing it ?
So you can't even get into recovery even if you flash it over fastboot?

Hello, Good afternoon.
So here's my problem, as you may or may not have (hopefully you have) read the post title i am having troubles with my CWM mounting my SD card so that i am able to either A: Load a ROM or B: connect it to my PC via usb so i can transfer over a ROM.
I have used the all in one toolkit to unlock my bootloader and root my phone, i have also installed the latest versions of SU, so originally after doing all of this everything was fine, A-OK. i then proceeded to download one of the cyanogenmod nightlies via CWM (the latest i believe) this is where as they say "**** hit the fan" so it seemed like everything installed all fine but then it reboots and nothing for hours it was just stuck on the HTC screen. i then switched the phone off and booted into recovery (volume down and power button) i then not sue it if was the right thing to do i wiped the data from the phone thinking it was corrupted and could simply put a new rom on via usb and boot it. however i have the problem of it not being able to mount my USB either to the pc or on the phone it self, i believe i still have access to the phone via ADB (im not 100% sure what ADB is) but i can flash new recoveries via CMD prompt. i have tried older CWM (modecco < did i spell this right? its the touch CWM) and i also tried TWRP Recoveries both of which cannot mount SD card and recieve the error "unable to open ums Lunfile" or "error mounting SD card".
i have searched many of the forums but form what i can see my solution requires me to boot into the OS but i cant do that nor can i mount my SD card to load a new one i.e putting on an Update.zip file to load a rom/os to the phone.
i dont generally ask for help as i enjoy trying to solve these issue and problems but i have been trying for a few days now and thought i would ask the experts.
any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
HI XDA,
After flashing a early version of sense 5 rom for my phone, twrp doesnt install any other roms. And after accidentally deleting my back ups, i cleared my rom and now I have no OS. To make it worse, my phone doesnt connect to the computer so i cant load any other rom on. I NEED HELP PLEASE ASAP
What version of TWRP are you using?
Also, you need to work out why the pc can't see your device. Did you factory reset in bootloader?

Okay i have twrp 2.3.1 and after doing factory reset, my sdcard wont mount and it is still not recognized in the pc
Go into recovery, connect your phone to pc, select mount usb storage, find it in my computer on your pc, format it to fat32 format. Now it will be usable again.

Great! it worked. Now my next problem is I can't flash any JB rom it seems like. I always get a failed error. I flashed a PA Android rom from 2012 and it worked however the rom itself was completely unable to use. The keyboard didn't work, the hardkeys didn't work.
What hboot version is your phone on?

Hello,
I got this HTC One X from AT&T (->evita) and tried to get CM 10.2.1 running on that.
The steps I made:
Boot into bootloader, go to fastboot, then get the identifier, get unlock token via htcdev and unlocked it with fastboot.
I then flashed CWM 6.0.4.6 for evita via "fastboot flash recovery *filename*". Now I booted into CWM (recovery) and wiped everything instead of first trying to copy the cm.zip onto the sdcard. (I also didnt do this when the stock ROM was still running...)
Now I can access the phone via fastboot in the bootloader but I can not use adb or the USB mount when in CWM. Whenever I plug the phone into my computer (or laptop, doesn't matter. Also tried switching between USB 2 and 3 ports!) Windows keeps making the "unplugged" sound every second.
Reinstalling the latest HTC drivers did not change anything.
Anyone here knows a way how I can stop that or get the zip file on the memory? I also tried flashing the boot.img on boot and tested if I can copy the file then through CWM but that did not work.
Hoping,
NyphoX
Not sure if it'll work but try using TWRP recovery instead:

Installed the most recent version.
I get into the recovry and when I plug it into a computer Windows will keep making the "unplugged"-noise.
I can see the sdcard-directory perfectly when I hit install in both, TWRP and CWM but when I want to mount it via USB it will not change anything and I cannot access it on my PC.
adb doesn't list any device either.
Also, TWRP and CWM keep telling me that my phone is not rooted, when I try to power off or restart. Is that normal?
My other HTC One X (non AT&T) just works fine with cwm 5.*.*.*
It's normal for the recovery to inform you that you're not rooted, it'll suggest that you install superuser but there's no point doing that in your case because you have no working OS installed. Did you at any point perform a factory reset from the bootloader? If so, you've corrupted the internal storage (known bug on modified Evitas) and will need to wipe it with TWRP.

Saw that in your Q&A.
I wiped the internal_sd and tested it after but it still did not work. I also tried a factory reset through TWRP but that did not help either.
Both recovery programs keep telling me "E:Unable to mount '/cache'.
Still not working. Q_Q
Update: I got like the oldest laptop I ever owned and installed the most recent HTC drivers there and tried to mount it. It told me in device manager that the "evita" is not recognized. When I let Windows search automatically it installed the drivers and I am now able to access the memory.
I can only assume what the problem was but it seems like the HTC One X (endeavoru) driver and the evita don't like each other...
TL;DR trying to install now. Will edit.
//EDIT: Windows still screws when I plug the phone to the other computer/laptop, so I just have to use the old machine now. Still thanks for your help, timmaaa!
//EDIT: It does work when I booted CM and enable the USB storage at the other two machines.
