Hey there,
a mate has a one s, running android 4.2.2 maximus 10.0. He was getting a update notice and try to install it by himself. Sadly something went wrong, so that's the current state:
Device won't boot
Fastboot Working
recovery (twrp) working
sd card formated
Hboot 2.16
SuperCID
S-Off
I don't get adb sideload working (device not found), so i am not able to get a rom sideloaded to install it.
Ruu 3.16.xxxx failed because it is not the right version of the device
anything i can do?
Go to twrp recovery and perform back up.
This will ensure you have a file structure on your SD card. This isn't strictly necessary but it always gives me reassurance.
Download Maximus onto your PC. Connect you phone to your pc via USB. In twrp go to mount and mount USB.
Place the downloaded ROM onto you SD card and then install the ROM
You should be good to go after this.

Hum, usb mount in twrp is not working with 2.16, am I right ?
Ah. That would be a problem. Glad I never took that route.
In that case and assuming adb side loading doesn't work I would suggest taking a look in the dev section.There is a thread devoted to downgrading from 2.16 to 2.15. Once you are back on 2.15, start the process again.

So I installed ROM Manager to update recovery to v6.0.2.5 and everything went fine. Then I rebooted into recovery and did a full wipe, but when I intended to mount usb storage to transfer over the new ROM it doesn't work. Is there another way to transfer files to sdcard ??
Please help!
Thanks!
I noticed this too but luckily had a ROM on the phone. I guess you could push the files via adb/fastboot but im not sure how as i haven't done it.
Yea, installed an older version of clockworkmod via fastboot and it worked
Yup. USB mount has been broken since every version after 6.0.1.0...
That made me move to TWRP. Ain't ever going to buy something like ROM Manager when something as supposedly supported such as the Nexus line is getting the cold shoulder even before Google officially stops supporting it. CWM 6.0.1.0 has been released when... in July?
Goto advance then mount usb storage. Now connect cable. Don't connect before.

Hello, I am a noob to htc. I received an AT&T htc one x from someone who try to rooted it but didn't make a backup and the phhone seems to be wiped. The recovery is cwm. I can get to the recovery but the phone is not recognized by the computer. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Never used cwm. Are you trying to copy files to it or something?.. You'd have to mount it in cwm.
You might need the HTC drivers.
What exactly are you trying to do?
Also, if you could grab the info from your bootloader, that could be helpful too.

I want to return it to the stock rom. There is no rom on the phone at all. I will look for the drivers.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
If you want it to be complete stock with the latest update, you may need to s-off first then ruu.
Alternatively, you could just flash a stock rom.
It's up to you. If you go the full stock s-off route you'll need to know if it's SuperCID'd first

Well can't put ROMs on the phone without the USB cable. Go to onexroot.com and download the drivers. Or install HTC sync. But if you have windows 7 it should download automatically.

from within recovery it is recognized as a mass storage device so drivers should not be required for xp+
this is why i was slightly confused.

that does help. most likely you have supercid. you would be best to s-off and then RUU.
Just to ease my anal retentive tendencies can you fastboot oem readcid? better to be safe than sorry.
hopefully you have working fastboot?

Important future info:
You are S-ON, HBOOT 1.14, Bootloader unlocked (you will have to flash the kernel, usually named boot.img, separately from your ROMs),
Okay, so here we go:
1) download one of these ROMs:
(odexed stock, recommended) androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390248398092763379
(deodexed stock) androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390248398092763378
2) Mount your sd card in recovery, drag the ROM onto your sdcard (don't delete from your computer yet, though), and then unmount your sd card
3) In recovery (make sure you wipe system and data first) go to the home screen -> install -> sdcard -> the ROM file
4) enter bootloader mode and hit the power button once so that it goes into fastboot mode
5) download this (it will help you to install the kernel) HTC One X (Evita) All-In-One Toolkit V2.1.1: d-h.st/CTW
6) Extract it using 7-zip or something, select flash a kernel (the kernel is attached below)
7) reboot and it should work
Make sure to update us with your results/problems!
i doubt op has any intention of modding his rom. may be best to link an odexed rom.
on a side note, if you want to return to stock i suggest RUUing up to 3.18. stable, fast, less likelyhood of lag or bugginess as i have noticed jb roms on older hboot tends to cause weird things here and there for people and some slow downs. whichever you choose, help is here.
PC not recognizing the device is extremely common, and really the main issue here. Just download the latest version of HTC Sync from HTC's website, and install, to re-install the drivers. Try a different USB port, different cable, or even a different PC (if possible).
From there, the fastest way to get on a stock ROM is to flash a stock rooted ROM from the Development section (or a custom ROM close to stock, like CleanROM), as another user suggested.
Alternatively, you can relock the bootloader and RUU back to stock. But be aware that since you have the AT&T version and are bootloader unlocked, it must be SuperCID. So do not run the 3.18 (AT&T Jellybean) RUU or you will brick the phone (unless you S-off first). You should be able to run the 2.20 RUU just fine.
i really find this to be the only driver you need to install for the htc evita.

Wipe your sd card and try again
these are the latest drivers that i know of so you can bypass installing htc sync.
[DRIVER] HTC Driver 4.0.1.001 (2012-11-07)
you should download HTCDriver_4.0.1.001_20121107.exe.part1.rar and HTCDriver_4.0.1.001_20121107.exe.part2.rar assume works great for vista or later
[DRIVER] HTC Driver 3.0.0.007 (2011-01-03)
HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe.part1.rar and HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe.part2.rar works great for xp or earlier
Update...on progress
I apologize for not getting back sooner. The computer will recognize the phone as a mass storage device and as HTC android phone USB device. I has ClockworkMod v5.8.3.1. If I try to mount sd/card I get a message E:Unable to open ums lunfile (No such file directory. If you have any suggestions from where I may go from here I would really appreciate it. Thanks.John

Just rooted and s-off a replacement one S. Everything went fine until i got to the point i was going to flash a rom. Ive been using the viper rom. after starting the installer it seemed out that all it did was format the memory. After it finished it rebooted and stayed on the HTC splash screen for probably twenty minutes before i did a hard boot. after getting back into recovery and trying again it did the same thing. i decided to just start over and do reboot from recovery but it is saying there is no OS. so i went back to view my card from recovery and everything on it was erased. Now im trying to copy the viper rom back over via recovery but the transfer speed is down to about 50kbps and keeps saying its timing out. any ideas
What recovery are u using? I read several times, that ViperRom and the latest twrp don't fit. In case of using twrp u should try an older version.

I guess i was using the twrp with that all in one toolkit i would switch to cwm but i cant get my computer now to reconigze the phone. i keep getting the htc mtp driver issue and haven't been able to figure it out. I figured if i can get the other recovery installed i should be able to flash a os

go into bootloader, then fastboot usb mode.
the flash the new recovery via fastboot command, or with the all in one toolkit (chose custom, then locate your file)
i switched over to cwm and tried copying a viper rom to my phone but it keeps erroring out during the transfer. I tried a smaller rom and it copied over but all its doing with i click install is going to a black screen then back to cwm
i also tried several other roms that were smaller in size and it was doing the same thing
Hey Guys,
I am a new user of the HTC ONE S which I got this march. I have basically no knowledge of adb, but I used the all in one toolkit to unlock my bootloader and install TWRP. My HBoot version is 2.15.0000 with S-ON.
I have the following issue:
By mistake, I wiped the system using TWRP. I now do not have an operating system on my phone. I tried the method suggested here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1630459. I was able to format my SD card to FAT 32, and place the ROM on the root of my Sd card. Then, I booted into TWRP and am able to view the rom, but when I tried to flash it, it gives me errors. I am unable to mount cache, dalvik, and the sd card. Aroma installer does not work, nor does the factory RUU found in the dev section. I also tried placing a nandroid backup on my phone (found in dev) for TWRP, but I cant see it in recovery, while my computer can.
I have tried almost all the solutions, can someone please help me.
Note : Please be kind and patient while explaining it to me, I am a noob who needs step by step instructions. Thank you in advance.
It also does not mount usb - otg.
If you can get to the bootloader you might want to just try an RUU. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2140967
It would take you back to complete stock and you can start over.
From your post, I'm guessing you already tried pushing a zip through adb.

Thank you for your reply.
Just to clarify, I CAN use my card perfectly on the computer and copy ROMs etc. The TWRP runs the ROM.zip, but because the system, cache etc is not mounted, installation fails. I tried the method linked in the first post, as well as the stock OTA with no success. So, I would like to know how to run the RUU.exe

Hey, I thank you for your help. All I needed to do was update my TWRP to version 2.5, and it mounted everything and now I am running a great custom rom. Thank you for your help.
I have been reading for the last couple weeks, thinking I have an answer and end up further into the hole.
Rogers HTC One X / EVITA / HBOOT 2.14. / 2.4 TWRP initially, now 2.6 / Unlocked boot loader / s-on
1. Started trying to flash AOKP 4.2.2. Flashed boot.img, then followed with TWRP recovery. All I could get was the language screen and then it stalled. Tried numerous iterations of this with various wipes and flash first and flash after.
2. Next tried Viper 3.2.7. All good till it gets to startup screen then it stops (I understand Viper has its boot.img installed to start not needing it flashed).
3. While trying various wipes to see if it would install completely I mistakenly did a factory reset! Now no OS! No Nandroid! No ROM.zip!
4. To get a ROM on SDCard tried ADB sideload thru TWRP. after running script it says unable to mount SDCARD! Suggests I reboot system! Now a little leery of rebooting for fear it will not.
5. Also tried to MOUNT HTV via TWRP on to laptop. Did not recognize said ti initialize. Formatted FAT 32 (via MAC). Now will not mount SD Card. I did drop Viper.zip into mount (cache and system OK) but can not find it using FILE MANAGER via TWRP
6. Now am in BOOTLOADER screen of Android. Thought I could flash a ROM but from what I read it does not look possible.
Can any one point me in the right direction to get this thing up and running. At this point, as much as I am learning all the time, it does me no good having my phone down for two weeks (sure glad I kept my Nexus One).
Any answer at this stage is a good answer and I appreciate all input!
Thanks

Sounds like you did a factory reset in bootloader which corrupts the sd card after unlocking the bootloader. You used to be able to just mount it on pc and format it but after the jb update I don't think that's possible due to the drive no longer being a mass storage device but an mtp device instead. There was a method to fix it developed by team nocturnal but it looks like the site is inaccessible right now. I'll see if there's a way to fix it and get back to you. Bear with me.
[/COLOR]By any chance have you tried wiping sd card in twrp 2.6?
Also, have done SuperCID yet?

SuperCID has not been done. It is S-ON presently.
I wiped SD Card as suggested. Saw it set up partitions. And now TWRP shows up when I mount . Can I just drop a ROM in and flash via TWRP? Any suggestions for a ROM. Could not get AOKP 4.2.2 to run or Viper 3.2.7.
Thanks for the quick assist at getting it to MOUNT.
Flash a stock sense rom and then fastboot flash boot boot.img extracted from the rom. Then use jet to downgrade hboot and SuperCID and then s-off. It'll save you lots of headaches.

It all sounds simple when you say it.
I will find a stock sense ROM to install then follow with boot.img.
Is it necessary to wipe anything more then Dalvik and Cache?
Thanks again.

In twrp 2.6 the factory reset wipes everything except sd card and system. You don't have to wipe system but I always do when I'm flashing a new rom.
