Hi all
I use HTC One X, but bought some time ago HTC One S, it worked fine for some time, but yesterday restarted and from that point I could not get it back neither to recovery nor ROM anymore. Phone bootloops and I can only get to fastboot.

Hm, really strange behavior, had couple of HTC phones but never seen something like this happening.
I did run RUU (first changed cid and relocked), everything went fine (no errors), but still cannot boot. My experience so far was that if RUU runs fine, you should boot without problem. Thinking more and more that there is some hardware problem, that is causing phone to bootloop.
If anyone has any idea, I would appreciate it a lot.
Thanks

According to your first post, everything seems to be okay. Your drivers are seeing the phone, and the phone is recognizing its hardware.
Which recoveries did you try to flash? (TWRP, CWM)
And which version?
Have you tried to reroot the device and flash a recovery again since running the RUU?
From my experience with running an RUU, you should be able to boot right away. What were the steps you took (in order) before you ran the RUU?
Sorry for all the questions, trying to establish a scenario.
[EDIT] Also, I see that you got the initial recovery from the CM11 ROM page. You didn't happen to flash a ROM that is meant for HBOOT 2.16 did you? I sure hope not. That could be a possibility as to why you can not boot anything.

Try getting into bootloader and pushing the kernel this way: fastboot flash boot boot.img
you don't have to be in recovery for this. The phone is s-on right?
[edit] actually your security says it's off.

No, it didn't work, this is something more serious
I've basically tried all I could think of, from doing RUUs (3 of them), flashing boot and recovery images, going 2.15, 2.16, locking/unlocking (obviously) and finally going S-On (ok, might be stupid, but I run out of ideas).
Bottom line is that all of the flashing worked for me, I get no error, but even simple fastboot boot recovery.img brings back the bootloop.
For example:
>fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-ville-selinux.img
sending 'recovery' (8668 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.108s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 2.059s]
finished. total time: 3.173s
>fastboot reboot
and if I hold Vol- and select recovery in bootloader I am back to bootloop.
Same thing if I try:
>fastboot boot openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-ville-selinux.img
I just do not understand why I am not getting any error message when flushing and is it possible that there is something wrong with the hardware that causes this behavior...

Sounds like you have a soft brick on your hands.
Can you boot the device at all, stock or custom ROM?
Maybe reverting to COMPLETE STOCK and starting over fresh will help?
What was the last thing you did right before you got stuck?

No, I cannot boot, after RUU that runs fine, phone still bootloops and only thing I can do is go into bootloader.
When you say COMPLETE STOCK, you mean RUU, right?
I was talking on the phone and phone restarted. After that I was able to boot after many tries, after restart, could not boot and than tried RUU etc...

And here we are. Do you happen to have the old All In One Kit that became obsolete, by hasoon2000? It has the function to flash your recovery back to stock. I found two mirrors on the internet, but because of the rules, I can't post them. But they are accessible through the internets if you use the right keywords.

Hi,
Bootloop is normal for ROM geeks.
In your case, it seems your phone has issue with version of Recovery. I had this issue too and found correct Recovery @ http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/ville ....
You can give a try..:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Have you tried this? :
--> flash STOCK recovery via fastboot or toolkit
--> Boot to bootloader --> Factory Reset(Userdata) / Clear Stotage (SD-card) (these commands only work with STOCK recovery)
Before I got the same problem, so in Bootloader I did Factory Reset and then flash the Recovery TWRP 2.6.3.0. Now it works

Hi,
i've got a htc desire S and surprise, surprise i've run into another problem (most probably caused by me right now phone is in a state of "zombification" (freezes at boot screen, boots to hboot screen but loops back to hboot screen when choosing recovery or factory wipe)
I was running edymion v3.5 base release, with pdroid. but i noticed apps kept crashing/ force closing (facebook, default mail, youtube etc) bypassed most of these by reinstalling them or finding alternatives. few weeks later loads of the app started crashing, especially the camera (cashing limited to default and background apps). I decided that a reinstallation of endymion MIGHT fix this so i factory wiped using clockworkmod recovery and reflashed endymion + pdroid.
Alas, it froze on the HTC boot screen. this had happened before when i tried rooting and all..... so i did what i did before...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1728513
which failed cause the update kept stopping midway, so i pulled battery, and repeated a few times, tried using a RUU and a OTA
RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.47.401.4_Radio_20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M_release_199410_signed
and
OTA_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.8-2.10.401.5_release_225212pe4gpljm46wwfk8i
these failed as well, either stopped halfway or completed then freeze on HTC boot screen.
Phone is s-off from revolutionary, no clockworkmod now (thanks to multiple wipes) and i dont think it is rooted anymore....
here is data that may help

P.S. sry this was so lengthy, thought more details would help fix it quicker
is your device still recognized by adb? if YES then this should enable you flash a recovery through fastboot.
exert from 4ext touch thread which is what I'd recommend that you use.
Code:
There's a [URL="http://www.4ext.net/ddl/saga/recovery.zip"]direct download[/URL] for a version you can flash via fastboot.
Download this file
Unzip it
check md5sum of the included image file
attach device through USB to PC
flash through fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
I'd then suggest a full wipe and attempt to include a custom ROM

Thanks for replying, i was begining to lose hope
unfortunately it does not register with adb since it won't switch on. But it DOES register with fastboot, so i'm trying it right not. So far it has stopped moving at
c:\Users\ME\Desktop\adroid>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (6038 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.021s]
writing 'recovery'...
But i'll give it some time before trying again, will report back soon
update:
Soo, waited a while, then tried flashing again. stopped at the exact same spot (writing 'recovery')
If you manage to flash a recovery, search for guide to change your misc version. Then search for a guide to change your bootloader. There is one in my signature. Finally download a T-Mobile RUU since your phone is branded. Do not flash any other versions

lol yea, i've pretty much given up. trying to find some one who can fix it, buti guess i'll have to wait to get a new phone
In which case, you surely have nothing to loose sending the dead device in for warranty fix, best leave the battery out.

Hello! Before you guys flame me with messages of how much dumb I am or anything similar - don't bother, i already know it and i regret it...
So... I have AT&T HTC One X, with Hboot 2.14, CID CWS__01 which i just destroyed as much as i could >.> Let me reproduce things i've tried..
First of i changed my CID to 11111111 and unlocked the bootloader - took me an hour, but i did it and it was working...
I've installed recovery, even rooted the ROM... But that wasn't enough - i wanted to install ParanoidAndroid ( and i didn't read that it needs S-OFF, realized that just after i installed it and rebooted the phone )..
So after a reboot, the white HTC logo it just went black screen and nothing else... So i've began to look up on forums if someone else had this kind of a problem...
Then i tried another 2 ROM's, which worked as well as PA - just black screen...
So i thought - maybe i'll do everything from scratch ? Why not, I changed CID back to stock, wiped everything etc. and locked the bootloader....
But now I've got a weird problem - i can't change CID with "fastboot oem writecid" - it returned me error
(bootloader) elite_init_sd, SD card already power on
(bootloader) sdhw_7xxx_open: id=0
(bootloader) [SD_HW_ERR] SD: No device attached
(bootloader) 902910 902E20

So now i have no access to recovery, so i can't even do anything to the storage, the phone doesn't boot up, tried RUU for ATT version ( RUU_Evita_UL_ATT_US_1.44.502.1_Radio_0.15.3201.09_release_249105 - i guess its for HBoot 1.44, not 2.14 >.> ) it just showed me an error that it couldn't send data to the phone and i should check my connection to the phone ( drivers are installed and working fine )
I've also tried fastbooting the OTA zip to the phone - well, the phone is on S-ON and it just declines any zip that i try to flash
Also i lost connection to ADB - its impossible to connect to it while phone is in bootloader, right? : /
So i'm left with empty phone without any rom, recovery - anything...
Is there any way of fixing it ? Its 5th hour where i just sit and try to look up for any information, but I just can't find anything...
I guess i just hard bricked the phone and i can try to play some volleyball with it >.>
Your mistake was thinking that you needed s-off to flash the ROM(s), you don't, all you needed to do was flash the boot.img via fastboot after flashing the ROM with your recovery. There's an Evita FAQ thread which contains this information stickied at the top of the q&a section you've posted this thread in . This is in no way intended to flame you, just show you the catalyst point for this mayhem.
Anyway, what is your current CID? Check it with this command:
Code:
fastboot oem readcid
You must be connected in fastboot mode (bootloader) in order for fastboot commands to work (and in answer to your question, no, adb does not work in fastboot mode, only in Android and in recovery).

I should mention that the battery was at ~95% at the time i was trying to flash/do anything.
So, is there any way to make at least recovery working? As for now i flash recovery using fastboot flash, but that does nothing - it says that its done, but when i get into bootloader and check recovery then enter it, it goes to white htc logo and goes back to bootloader >.>
EDIT!!!!!
I managed to get it working!

Jesus christ, thank You internet for providing exact links to the RUU's etc >.> I guess i'll try to not brick the phone again ^^ Thanks for the reply again : )

Glad to see you're all working now. But you need to edit your IMEI out of your post asap, never post your IMEI publicly.

I'm not sure where to start. My brother handed me his phone after stupidly following a friend's suggestion that his phone would be faster if he did a factory reset. The phone displays the white screen with the HTC logo, then goes to a black screen and gets stuck there.
I'm able to get to fastboot, but I'm not really sure where to go from there.
The phone's never been tampered with before. S-ON, locked bootloader.
Here's the text I'm seeing on fastboot:

If I understood correctly from what I've been reading, I'm probably gonna need to reflash a stock ROM from fastboot through adb.
I got this HTC_One_X_RUU_5.18.502.1.exe from one of the threads. How do I extract the ROM from there?
I'd appreciate if anyone pointed me in the right way. I'm a Samsung guy and this phone is absolutely alien to me.
EDIT: Here's some more info I got from fastboot:

How did he do the factory reset? Through recovery?
The symptoms you list are identical to what happens when flashing a new Rom without S-OFF.
My understanding is that due to write restrictions it can't copy the boot.img file to boot, which is required begin running the operating system.
I'm not sure if this is the case for factory resets though. So it may depend on how he tried to do the factory reset.
If the above situation is the case, then the fix is to flash the boot.img file of the same stock rom. Alternatively, you could flash a new rom and it's respective boot.img file.
He did that through fastboot. In fact he did the factory reset several times after the phone didn't boot.
I already tried flashing a boot.img from a ROM I found in the development section, but fastboot just says (remote:signature verify fail).
I have absolutely no freaking idea where to get that specific stock ROM. (It's 3.18.502.6, right?)
I added some extra info in the OP in case its useful.
EDIT: I downloaded the 3.18.502.6 OTA update, extracted the boot.img and the phone keeps spitting (remote:signature verify fail)
Since he flashed through recovery it may have screwed up because the bootloader is still locked (this may be the reason why you're getting errors too).
Unlocking the bootloader is what allows you to write to internal memory and is required to flash a rom.
I unlocked my bootloader using this nifty tool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2470972
This should then allow you to flash the boot.img file with the command
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
I don't think flashing a boot.img is going to help. You're gonna need to run an RUU, either of these should be fine:
http://androidruu.com/getdownload.p..._10.130.32.34_release_signed_With_Partial.exe

Hey timmaaa, thanks for the help.
This phone is insufferable. Now I'm getting this:
Code:
C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot flash zip rom_02.zip
sending 'zip' (798796 KB)...
FAILED (remote: data length is too large)
finished. total time: 0.007s
I actually managed to flash rom_01.zip and now I'm able to boot into recovery.
When I'm on recovery the log says:
Code:
Can not mount SD Card (No such file or directory)
What would you suggest I do next?
Why are you doing that though? That's not how you use an RUU, you're not meant to extract anything, it's an executable file so all you do is connect your phone in bootloader mode and run the program. Plus, who knows what's been done to the device at this point with all the mucking around that's happened with it, flashing just the ROM component won't achieve the desired result. You need to run the RUU as intended so it can update all aspects of the phone and bring everything back into line. There's a pretty good guide to using an RUU here:
Running a Rom Update Utility (RUU) on the HTC One XL Evita
Follow that guide exactly and your phone will hopefully be revived.
I initially tried manually flashing thru fastboot because the RUU installer wasn't detecting the phone.
Turns out I didn't have the right drivers.
Thanks a bunch, man.

All good, is the phone booting now?

Yup, it booted up alright. I think I'm gonna see how to install a custom recovery so I can fix it easier if he screws the phone up again.
Cool, I have detailed instructions for this device here:

My power button quit working, I'm within the 1 year warranty period, and I need to go back to stock after I get my replacement.
Before I call VZW, since I'm rooted and using nV ROM, and I know they ask about the Software, does anyone have a screen shot of the Stock Software screen, Kit Kat unless LP has been pushed?
Thanks!

They can see more information than you can tell them. Best bet is to be stock during that call.
Thanks for that input.
So, since the new phone arrived, I've been trying to restore my old phone to stock, S-OF, Unroot and Locked boot loader, etc.
I'm able to ADB into fastboot, however for whatever reason I cannot load the 06BIMG.zip(not at my computer)
Fastboot simply reboots immediately when I adb reboot boatloader.
Is there another way to get a stock image on the phone, remove the red text at boot up, s-off, lock boot loader with stock recovery and unroot?
Everything I've tried seems to be hinged on that fastboot rebooting issue.
Thanks

0P6BIMG.zip ?
I typed it from my phone whilst I was enjoying the evening outside. Just the only numbers in my head.
I'm downloading your RUU exe right now Dottat. Didn't realize you're local by an hour to me.
thanks!

So I downloaded your EXE, and I get a failure in regard that it reboots to the HTC logo and the phone reboots immediately, causing the program to fail.
Error 155: unknown error
This is the same problem i was having when trying to do the fastboot push of the RUU I had downloaded previously.
Image version is 1.54.401.10
What ever can i do?

I just remember last year downloading and installing the nV Rom which was 4.4.2. and updating the radios.
I've tried the 0p6bimg.zip method in fastboot, but it fails as well. Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but it's in the root of the SD card.

You tell me, I'll probably get out of work around 3pm and head down to York. I have to pick up tools from a friend that's borrowing them for work around 5/530, so whenever.
Since the PWR buttons not working, I'm not able to select HBOOT at the bootloader screen, and the commands I was using to get the HTC black screen fail to push. However, I just renamed your ZIP file and will try again and report back

Got half way through and now I'm at the four exclamation marks on the corners
Pretty sure I effed up... Before reading further please know I am a very novice Android user, but am great at following directions.
In an attempt to install a custom ROM on my phone I'm having some serious issues getting it to work. I was able to unlock the bootloader on my device quite easily but after attempting to install TWRP the device boots to a black screen when trying to load the recovery. I know the phone is on because I have to press and hold power for a while before I can get back into the actual system. I figured I'd try installing CWM but it does the same thing. I installed the ROM Manager app as suggested by another site but it really is of no help to me without my phone being rooted, which it is not... yet. The app does show that both TWRP and CWM are installed but gets an error flashing CWM and if i try to set it to use the outdated version of CWM or TWRP it says that it's configured to use the existing recovery installation and makes no difference trying to load the recovery.
Phone info: (Let me know if you need anything not listed.)
Android Version: 4.1.1
HTC Sense: 4+
Software#: 3.17.631.3
HTC SDK API leve: 4.63
Build#: 3.17.631.3
Kernel version: 3.4.0-g240d4d5
I'm at a loss for what to do to either get a working custom recovery or restore the factory one to working condition, which I can't seem to find online anywhere.
Edit: Grammar.
Edit2: Update - I was able to get TWRP to run and then attempted to install CyanogenMod, when it installs it says MD5 file not found but says successfully installed. After rebooting to system it just gets stuck in an endless reboot cycle. Ideas / Suggestions?

I've ensured to use Evita for all the guides. I double triple and quadruple checked everything before performing any steps. Posting in the wrong thread doesn't change the situation. Is there a way to move this to the correct thread?
Edit: Also, according to HTC the Evita was a code name used for both the One XL and One X simultaneously. One XL applied specifically to releases in Hong Kong, Australia, Germany, Singapore, and United Kingdom. One X applied to Canada (where I am) and USA.

Are you full wiping cache, data, and Dalvik before and after flashing CM?

Yes I was doing a full wipe before flashing, but not after. Situation has changed a bit though... I was working with someone via reddit (Full thread here: reddit.com/r/root/comments/3a4cc2/htc_one_x_root_for_beginner/ ) Long story short: Finally got CyanogenMod installed but let it sit over an hour and just stuck on spinning CM logo. Forced shutdown, booted into TWRP and wouldn't recognize SD or mount (eMMC). Read this can be due to not doing a factory reset, tried to do the factory reset but same deal. Tried to ruin an RUU that matched my info but it failed and with a locked bootloader I cant even get into TWRP, I need to unlock the bootloader and reinstall TWRP after failing an RUU.

If I try to boot after this it boots to the white HTC quietly brilliant screen.
I see you have s-on and you do not have super CID.
With s-on, I think you have to flash the boot.img file for the phone to boot.
Easiest way to solve the problem may be to get s-off and supercid.
