Non rooted, CWM installed, Cyanogen hangs.

This is killing me!
I used HTCDev on my Sensation and unlocked it. Then I used fastboot to install CWM. It worked fine. I went to recovery, wiped the data/factory reset and also wiped the cache. (Note: when wiping the data, an error did occur that said make_extf4fs failed), somehow I didn't notice that and so I flashed a CyanogenMod 9 on to it. Now Cyanogen just hangs at boot.
What can I do now? Is this because I didn't root it? (I thought being able to install CWM would suffice!)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to flash the boot.img using fast boot or install 4 EXT Recovery and enable smatflash. Go have a read here and you should be able to solve you issue.

after flashing cwm did you flash superuser to give you root?

I just did everything in that post and I was able to flash two ROMs (Cyanogen and Android Revolution HD). But both of them had the same problem that made me want to flash the whole thing in the first place!!: The network and the Wifi don't work!
I tried this: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/22773-wireless-and-radio-issues-with-70x/ but that didn't help either.

Sorry, my bad. the network works (I hadn't put back the cover then), but the wifi doesn't work!! It just can't detect any access point.

Thank you all. It worked. It turns out that Wifix wasn't able to fix the issue automatically and I had to manually set my country code.

[Q] deleted htc framework file and phone doesnot start

deleted htc framework file and phone doesnot start.
After rooted my htc One X. In the process of removing at&t crap ware I accidentally deleted something that said htc frame work.
From then on my phone would not start. I unlocked my phone as well. How ever I didnot have any custom ROM installed or didnot have any back up done.
When I tried to reboot my phone after deleting the htc frame work file, it would not start. HTC icon would show up and it would not go further.
These are the things I did.
1. I flashed CWM.
2.I flashed TWRP.
3.I finally flashed CWM. 5.8.3
Then I went to fastboot mode and
removed Dalvik Cache, Erased the sd card
and tried to 'mount usb storage' but it would say
"unable to open ums lunfile(no such file or directory)SD card space free:10169MB"
My phone though shows as a removable disk , when i click on the icon it would say " Please insert disk into removable disk." I tried to save a custom ROM on my memory card and flash it but my system doesnot detect my phone.
Can some one please help me?
Thank you.

HTC Framework is part of the OS. You deleted part of the OS.
Install TWRP and mount USB, then load a custom ROM or one of the rooted stock ROMs in the Development forum.
Alternately, relock the bootloader and run the RUU.

Lock bootloader run ruu start over. Next time the very first thing you do is make a nandroid back up.

Adding a note to it. my phone is s-on and did not have android sdk installed on my machine. i tried all this using fastboot files and twrp img.
Thank You

You mentioned you tried to mount USB using fastboot (I've never mounted USB using fastboot, so I can't comment on that). Try mounting USB within TWRP, and see if that works. FYI, the USB mount feature in CWM does not work, and CWM does not really support our device, and has major issues. That's why its strongly recommended you use TWRP and not CWM.

Website seems to be too busy now. As long as its not 2.20, it should be okay. Normally, I would caution against randomly searching around the internet for things and flashing them, and instead getting them here instead. But briefmobile is Kenneth Penn's website, and he is a known developer on XDA.

You deleted part of the OS, so I'd say no. It doesn't boot does it? Then it doesn't work.
Also, please click "Thanks" to the post that help you.

the link you sent really helps. i flashed twrp then cwm then twrp. does it matter somehow flashing these things multiple times?

No, you can only have one recovery. Flash one, you overwrite whatever you had before.

I'd stay away from CWM. I know it used to cause problems, but I don't know if it does anymore.
Most everybody here (in the One XL forums) prefer TWRP anyways.

Thanks for you time everybody.
This is what I did last night.
Downloaded a RUU from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237
and put my phone in the fastboot usb mode and ran RUU.
After a while my phone would have a blank screen with glowing "htc" logo on it, as shown in the RUU utility.
Nothing happens and my phone is still in the state of brick.
Thank You

You must relock your bootloader temporarily or the RUU will fail. As long as you have your unlock token you can re-unlock once you RUU.
When you are in fastboot, type "fastboot oem lock"
Once it's locked, run the RUU.
Once that is done, re-unlock by flashing the token.

Go in to bootloader. You already said you were able to do that. Hold down the volume key when you boot your phone, go into bootloader, run the fastboot command.

Gunny stated that BL had to be locked at the start of the thread. Does anyone ever read anymore? I mean, seriously....

This is like the 3rd or 4th thread in the past couple weeks that Gunny or redpoint has told the OP to relock and RUU but they said it wasn't working still. And then I've come in and said they have to relock and the OP hadn't done it yet. So no, apparently people don't read lol.
But in almost every thread things have to be said 2-3 times which is ridiculous

How to apply OTA update on Rooted At&t One X

Hi,
I have this AT&T one x, (I m using on NON AT&T network), so cant have an ota update.
Looking at few forums, downloaded the OTA version on XDA (631 Mb)
Saw people writing, that just rename the file to update.zip and then go to recovery and choose install from internal memory.
That dint work for me.
Error: not able to mount sd mem
Then few people wrote to choose install from external mem.
That dint work either.
Error: not able to mount sd mem
Then saw few people saying that I need to root my device and unlock bootloader.
I dint that, and tried from bootlaoder to install from zip.
That also dint work.
Now saw, I few wrote that i need to be S - OFF.
Which I tried doing it, but i m not able to do s-off for myself.
Pls pls pls.... can any of you EXPERTs out here help me.
Waited like for AT&T to release the update, now when it is out, i m not able to make it through.
Your step by step instruction would be highly appreciable.

Be aware, that if you have the AT&T version, and you are rooted, then you probably have SuperCID (in fact, you must have SuperCID, unless it was already changed back). If you have SuperCID you must S-off (or return to the AT&T CID) before applying the OTA, or you will brick your phone!
I am not all that familiar with the process to install using OTA.zip (and haven't done it myself), but it was discussed in these threads:

I tried this method couple of time before : unlocking, rooting and S-off ing
In this case , do i need to relock my bootloader and stock recovery?
If yes, where can i find stock recovery, i have deleted it.

By "i deleted it" do you mean you installed a custom recovery? If so, yes you need to get stock recovery back on.
Only way I know of to reinstall stock recovery is to run the 2.20 ruu. Since you're s-off, you don't need to relock; just run it.

You probably have a custom recovery. Reboot to bootloader and select recovery and see what you get. If it's TWRP, you'll get a teamwin splash screen and then some options. Stock recovery will just show a screen with a green circle.

I have already done that.
And now in case anyone needs help, i can help those people out.
Coz the method is simple, but it is not at all explained clearly in any of the threads.
It has come in bit and pieces.

I have noticed one thing.
That after installing the update and again unlockin the bootloader and rooting, I am not able to see "TAMPERED" being written in the boatloader.
Also, now when I am rooted and also have SU permission, I m not able to switch on my WiFi tether with the files mentioned in the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677261

The "TAMPERED" flag goes away when you're s-off and flash a new hboot.
I believe wifi tether is blocked on the new AT&T base. You can flash a custom rom on the 3.17 base and it should work.

Need Help:can't flash any recovery,RUU doesn't restore my soft,One S- no OS

Hi, everything messed up from using the stupid TWRP 2.6.0.0 .... I was going to flash a custom rom , but it didn't let me, so I did a little research that I need 2.3.3.0 in order to instal any custom rom.So I tried to switch to 2.3.3.0 but it didn't let me... after that I tried to push stock recovery and now i'm stuck at the white HTC Entering Recovery ( pink letters) screen, ( The recovery just doesn't load) ... I just want to finish with this , and go back to my stock htc rom with not roots or anything.. im tired of this seriously.....
When I try to run RUU I get stuck at the Black HTC Letters screen , the the setup stops and says that it will try to repair my phone, sadly with no result every time.. I think that I don't have any OS on my phone right now, because when RUU starts it shows :
Change image version from : ( blank space)
To: ..... bla bla bla , ( the version of the ruu) ...
I have no problems with entering fastboot and unlocking/relocking my Hboot.
Any help about restoringmy phone will be appreciated . Thanks , I'm online all the time so if I get any responses I'll answer quick.
P.S. I can't mount my usb storage from anywhere, and it doesn't show up on my PC when i connect the usb

Okay, just now I noticed. You used two Different RUUs for two different versions.
The 1st one is for S3/C2 version, the 2nd one is for S4 version.
Use This Thread to download RUU's only for your version (S4 or S3 whichever you have got). In your case, it does matter which RUU you use.
If you need any help further just ask away.

the thing is that the RUU doesn't get to the process of installing , and I have used those RUU's before....
I need some solution the get to a working recovery and instal some kind of OS because the last time I could get in my recovery it said that I don't have any OS installed...

okay you gonna need fastboot for this. What I have been successful with is:
1. Download an RUU (VERSION SPECIFIC!).
2. Go into Bootloader -> Then select FASTBOOT
3. Connect your Phone to PC. It should say Fastboot - USB mode.
4. Run the RUU, it will get you through all the steps.

doesn't work as I've told you , it happens with every RUU ... I get the Black screen with white HTC letters...
I think that what RUU does is : it updates the version my software I think it just doesn't place a new software right away( just an update), but as TWRP said I don't have OS installed...

Man you're making this difficult. The more I want to help you, the more you become hasty.
RUU doesn't do what you think. It puts New software, updates firmware (hboot, radio, RECOVERY), so yes it is basically a one-stop solution.
Please calm down as panicking won't help.
Tell me your One S version (S3/S4) at least? so that we can move forward in right direction. and also your CID
Tell me what recoveries and RUU you tried. and what errors do you get while you run them.
EDIT: Thanks to @tivofool I forgot to mention that you have to RELOCK your bootloader before running RUU

I flashed TWRP from One_S_All-In-One_Kit_v4.0 but without luck, then i flash the factory stock recovery, still the phone was letting me into any of these two recoveries, then i decided reflash the same TWRP again and it worked,
First I couldn't mount the storage from the recovery , but it was still showing in "My Computer" , I had only one option and it was to Format the Storage. So I did.. then copied this rom with gapps on it ---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2164406
Fully wiped --> Flash Rom , then Flash Gapps, ---> then I booted in fastboot to boot from CMD the "boot.img" with "fastboot flash boot boot.img" from the Pacman Rom and then I Rebooted the HTC and Done
Huge thanks to @khan.orak
I hope I helped someone with the same ****tyass problem.

[Q] HTC one S brick

Hello,
I'm new here but today I tried to root my phone and put CM10 on it. Rooting was not that hard but with flashing the rom I had some problems. I used a tutorial from youtube "Htc One s jellybean 4.2.2 Nightly Cm10.1 Rom" and did everything as he said but when I tried to boot CM it came in a boot loop so I restored my backup and everything was back normal again. But I thought i'll give it another try so I did that and it still didn't work so I restored (via recovery) and at the end it said: It appears your phone isn't rooted do you wanna do it now...(or something like that)? I found that a bit strange but I clicked yes but now if I boot up my phone first you just see "HTC - quietly brilliant" and then the red letters come beneath it saying its a developers version. I Couldn't do anything so I jumped into my bootloader and did factory reset but now everything is gone and I still have that booting problem,
I can acces bootloader and recovery mode but that's it
I really need my phone soon and don't have much time to look on the internet for solutions so could you please help me?
Thanks in advance!!
Lennard

Do you have the RUU for your phone? Maybe that would be the quick fix to take it back to stock. You can use an RUU that's equal or newer than what you have currently.
BTW: I went through this as well.

Jep, as instructed in the youtube video

Which hboot version and radio?
Cm10 uses 3.4.x kernel, it won't boot with old firmware

Hboot : 2.15.000

Then it can be a bad download. If not I I'm out of ideas

Do you remember doing any of the following?
-wipe data/factory reset
-wipe dalvik cache
I think that was my problem that I didn't wipe the cache completely. Possibly a bad download too. Do a search on md5. It's basically a check to see if your download is ok before flashing.
As far the RUU is concerned, it will take you back to stock. You will need the info that appears when you start the phone up by holding down VOL DOWN and POWER. Hold down volume down, then press the power for a second or 2. Then it will boot up into HBOOT.
Write down the info that appears and search for a matching RUU equal or newer.
What is the carrier???

I did the factory reset, dalvik cache and cache wipe. When I tried to install CM it indeed said unable to find md5 or something like that.
I think I have a europe version and looked for fitting RUU but the numbers are completely different maybe you could find a good RUU? (See attachement) Btw I have S4/Ville/Z520e

CID
Could you please read out your CID? Then we can get right RUU.
You can do this by booting your One S into fastboot mode and use the toolkit from the link:

yes thats it
This should be the right RUU http://www.androidruu.com/getdownload.php?file=Ville/RUU_Ville_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.16.401.8_Radio_1.11.50.05.28_10.27.50.08L_release_301814_signed_2_4.exe
MAY anyone who reads this confirm it? Just to be safe at all.
btw. "HTC_E11" = unbranded Netherlands
Due to you're S-ON you will have to relock your bootloader to perform a RUU update.

For RUU you need stock recovery and "locked" BL. Please read the guide again and only proceed, if you're sure you got it.
Another question:
You said you got a working recovery? Which version do you use? And have you tried install another custom rom.zip? That would be more easy and safe to you. May be your storage got corrupted and thats why your phone crashed and you can't install the rom.zip stored on the sd-card. You could connect the phone to your pc as mass storage via recovery, format it and put a new customrom.zip on it. By the way, why you installed such an old rom? You can use CM11 for sure

In that guide it doesn't say anything about a relocked bootloader.
I do have a working recovery but how can I get a zip file on it? I can't acces the files of my phone in windows explorer or something like that. Also I don't know if I have a stock recovery but if I don't I have to install that via a zip but how can I get that on my phone...?

PLS boot in recovery mode and tell me what "version" it is You should find it. If you're not sure about it, you can flash a new recovery before installing a rom. Whe you have a working custom recovery you can mount your sd-card to your computer via recovery.
