So I think my HTC One X is bricked. It says "No OS" when I'm in TWRP. I downloaded the ViperXL ROM so I can install it again onto my phone but I can't transfer the files to my phone. When I connect my phone into my computer, it says there is no driver or the driver cannot be installed even though I already installed all the updated drivers for it. So is there anyway for me to get the ViperXL ROM on my phone so I can use it again? Thanks,
Your phone isn't bricked, if it powers on at all it isn't a brick. More information needed though. What are your bootloader details? Which recovery version are you using? Is the mount usb storage option in the recovery not working?

I'm using the TeamWin bootloader and I'm not sure which version it is. Also, when I got to Mount, I click mount and then it has the unmount button right after I click mount. Not sure what to do there. Thanks,

How do you not know which version it is? You flashed it to the device didn't you? It says at the top of the screen as soon as you enter TWRP. I also asked what your bootloader details are, I ask these questions because I need this information to help you, so I need you to answer them if you want help. So when you click the mount usb storage button (with the phone connected of course) does it not show up as a removable drive in Windows?

I'm trying to charge my phone right now so I will give you the version in a bit and when I click mount, nothing shows up on Windows. I'm running Windows 7 64 bit.
I also need your bootloader information please. Have you performed a factory reset from the bootloader by any chance?

Yes I already did a factory reset. And I will give you the version number tomorrow if that's fine since my phone is still charging and doesn't want to turn on.
But did you do the factory reset in recovery or in the bootloader?

I did a factory reset in both. And the version is also v2.4.1.0. Thanks,
Ok, there's half your problem. Don't ever perform a factory reset from the bootloader because doing that in a modified Evita causes the sd card to become corrupted. The other half of your problem is your recovery version, TWRP 2.4.x and 2.5.x are buggy and shouldn't be used. Download TWRP 2.6 from here.
Put the file in your fastboot folder. Connect phone in fastboot mode, open command prompt from within fastboot folder, issue the following commands:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "filename.img"
(the exact filename, minus the talking marks)
Code:
fastboot erase cache
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now go into TWRP and select wipe, then advanced wipe, check sd card/internal storage and wipe it. Now try mounting it to your PC.

In recovery?
If you do Factory reset in bootloader it messes up your SD Card.
Boot into recovery
Select "Mount"
Connect device to PC via USB cable
Select "Mount USB Storage" in TWRP
On the PC, find the SDCard's drive in My Computer, right-click on it, and select "Format"
Proceed with formatting the SDCard ("Quick Format" is fine)
Safely remove the USB storage from Windows
Reboot

Hey guys, I'm on an HTC One X (AT&T) (evita). I'm currently running ViperXL, but it's very glitchy and often restarts or loses signal. I was previously running CM10 and went through a bit of trouble flashing this ROM. I kept getting the message "Installation Aborted" with no status error when i tried to flash and am experiencing the same problem now. I know i've been using the correct ROMs for the evita version not the endeavoru version (or however it's spelled). I think what I did when I transitioned from CM10 to ViperXL was factory reset from the bootloader (accidentally pressed the volume button too many times), then reloaded CWM onto my phone, factory reset, wiped the cache/dalvik, and flashed. But, now I'm getting the installation aborted messages again and I don't plan on factory resetting (i doubt that helped in the process before anyway). I'm thinking that I would need to unroot then reroot to fix this problem, but I'm fairly noob so I'm not sure. I also believe that I lost the back up of the stock ROM and i'm not sure how much that has screwed me over.
Never factory reset from bootloader, all it does is corrupt your sd card. Please provide more details, what are your current bootloader details? Which recovery version are you using?

Try changing recovery to TWRP, I'm not sure if it's going to help but it's worth a shot. Here's how:
Download TWRP 2.6 from here. Put the file in your fastboot folder. Connect phone in fastboot mode, open command prompt from within fastboot folder, issue the following commands:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "filename.img"
(the exact filename, minus the talking marks)

Enter TWRP recovery, select mount from the menu, connect phone to pc, select mount usb storage, the card will now show up in Windows, try to access it and it'll prompt you to format it, select fat32 format and wait for it to finish.

Hi, I did a terrible mistake but i think it can be fixed
I rooted and installed TWRP (Recovery), after trying a few times to install CM10 and getting stuck on the CM10 loading screen for 30-35 minutes, i came to XDA and learned that i should wipe cache/dalvik/sys, and try again.
I did a mistake and wiped everything from my phone and i don't have any backups ... Using the TWRP i mounted my phone to my computer and added CM10.zip file to try again, but it still shows nothing in my SD Card while in TWRP.
I can reboot and go to recovery.
Can anyone suggest or help me with that?

so i tried downgrading the TWRP 2.6.3 to 2.6 through fastboot. It doesn't recognize my device when i connect it.
Its stuck on <waiting for the device> in CMD.
I connected the phone while it was OFF, didn't work, went to recovery and connected it, still didn't work.
The method i am using to downgrade:
1. fastboot getvar store
2. Connect the phone while its OFF
3. fastboot flash recovery c:/*directory*/*recovery name*.img
4. fastboot reboot

I'm not sure seeing as I don't really know what he's done. It looks like he's relocked your bootloader though. Why on earth did you let someone who has no idea what they're doing mess with your phone? I think you're better off returning the phone to stock and leaving it that way.

Hello! Something like that happened to me. I choose the option of "factory reset" into the phone first menu (not the TWRP menu) and it left useless the "SD CARD". In order to revert, you have to enter to TWRP menu, choose mount (I think), then choose mount SD and connect to PC. The PC will say that your card is not readable and you must format it to be read. Do it!, I did a fast format and it was enough. Then put in the phone memory (the just formated memory) the desireded ROM (I am using URdroid which is great). And enter TWRP again to flash the rom following the instructions for the choosen ROM. It will fix your problem.

Tried all the same steps from most current version TWRP.....Im lost, what should i try next.
Also i have no file structure if you mount the storage from recovery i was empty and said it need to be formatted to be used, put it in FAT32. Made it usable, copied the CM ROM directly to the root of mounted drive, since there were no folders or anything in it.

Have you tried RUUing back to stock and re-rooting?
Mount usb storage in TWRP recovery and format (fat32) the sd in Windows. It looks as though you've done a factory reset in bootloader at some point which corrupts the sd card. Once you've done that I'd suggest trying to flash another ROM, if you still have problems you'll probably need to RUU as Rolltribe suggested.

TWRP 2.5 is your problem, it's full of bugs. Download TWRP 2.6 from here. Put the file in your fastboot folder. Connect phone in fastboot mode, open command prompt from within fastboot folder, issue the following commands:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "filename.img"

Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you can enter recovery on your phone and flash again and you should be fine.

Hi everybody !
I think i'm in the right section to expose you my problem, and no one on this forum had been confronted to such fails ! but i'm new in this forum to write threads (altough i already read many of them)
i'll try to be quick :
a year ago i bought a htc one sv , i unlocked the bootloader and then i stopped because i was with windows 8 and it was boring with usb 3.0 (i can use windows 7 right now..!). then i got some problems with "android.phone", or android.process.media" stopped et i believed my phone dead, but i learned things, installed the TWRP recovery 2.7.0.1 and flashed therom stock odexed jelly bean which allowed me to get back to stock my phone! (the twrp was with the root (or the rom odexed...) so i became rooted! but when i updates the superuser app few months ago, i got problems of binaries so i didn't install the last supersu app update (2/3 weeks ago). unfortunately,2 weeks ago, my phone did a reboot in the night (which awoke me) but in a bootloop...
First i tried factory reset then clean storage du bootloader, but it did nothing.
at the beginning i could not acceed to the recovery, but, lucky i am, a boot in fastboot usb and now from the phone, i can go to my recovery twrp 2.7.0.1 -or 2.8.4.0 by boot fastboot usb) however, TWRP shows "no os installed"it s been 2 weeks that i'm searching, but without results... that's why i'm asking here to the best in android world ^^
the things that i already tried without results:
flash the same zip odexed from recovery and from fastboot usb
flash hboot, but i'm s-on
update recovery ( i only can boot by fastboot usb)
flash rom custom venom with the installer in the rom
find files for sdcard "pl80diag.zip et nbh et pl80img.zip et nbh"
but i'm S-on and can't be S-off, the process with moonshine stopp when the devices has to boot...
i also tried adb sideload and simple adb with the phone in recovery recovery but:
recovery is unable to mount internal storage partitions (unable to mount int-sd, etc............)
my phone shows "tampered" "unlocked" and "s-on" hboot "2.00.000".. ask for more...
from now on, when i boot the phne i don't have any more bootloop, i'm directly in the hboot..!
i tried extract rom.zip from RUU.exe of ICS but i didn't used it...
so i'm wondering if there is a way to unbrick this soft bricked devices 'casue i already tried all of the unbrick things for soft brick but the partitions being unable to mount killed all my tries... i hope i gave you many informations ! all the suggestions and ideas are welcome!
(i can't find nbh files..)
thanks for reading this busy text, i'm a bit bored of using a very old phone in remplacement if i can repair my lover htc..!
i trust you people i'll check and answer suggestions asap!
Well, you are S-on, there is not much you can do.
Flash twrp recovery 2.7.x or 2.8.x and try to flash a rom for your device model.
Don't forget to do a full wipe in twrp and to flash the boot.img of the rom you are using with fastboot.

it that i was thinking... i already try this (i have already twrp without booting in fastboot or flashing) but the fact is : twrp cannot mount any partitions so the step "writing" is impossible.. even the wipe fails..
If i remember right, in TWRP 2.8, under Wipe - Advanced there must be a button "Repair broken filesystem".
Not sure if this is working on SV, but it is worth a try i think.
What version of this phone do you own?

hey guys, it's been a while but i was searching during all this time. I've experienced some things with adb shell and what i saw :
my partitions are messed up, not annihilated, but messed up. 2 reasons : partitions can't be mounted in the last recovery of TWRP, and when i use Fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk0 and the partition table of mmcblk0 and what I see is that my partitions table are not in disk order. My partitions are overlapping.. Perhaps it will help. I tried some ext2fd and mkfs.ext4 but it as not worked properly... maybe you have ideas... because it's been about months that my phone is useless and a paperweight.
by the way on my computer under windows 10, my phone used to be in qhsus_dload..! perhaps there are issues with that!
Thanks.

You need an RUU to fix you up.

Well if you can extract the RUU from the .exe program then you can boot to your hboot then select fastboot from the screen. Plug device to your pc then enter:
Confirm pc reads phone and displays serial number before proceeding...
Code:
fastboot devices
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Code:
fastboot flash zip RUU.zip
If terminal shows it has completed successfully then reboot:
Code:
fastboot reboot
If terminal shows it didn't complete successfully then do not reboot but try again:
Code:
fastboot flash zip RUU.zip
I went through this last weekend for my K2CL because I was converting my device to f2fs and messed up in the process.

OK well i'll use my computer under windows 7, but i know that when i extract the ruu from the .exe (using the folder temp, you know) the file can't be flash with recovery but i'll give a try with fastboot (fastboot devices always work) if this can work you'll be my heroe haha because i've tried so many things with the adb shell the recoveries, the flash with fastboot (which taught me some things about android) but nothing worked!

Yea, the RUU extracted is not made to be flashed in the custom recovery or any recovery for that matter. Must be flashed with the device in RUU mode as instructed in my last comment. If you are S-On then make sure you relock the bootloader first before doing it. If you are S-Off then it does not matter. It will fix your device. Like I said, I borked my partitions last weekend and the RUU fixed it right up for me with no problems. However, I used a decrypted RUU but the process is still the same.

to decrypt the RUU You use smthing on Ubuntu right ? or you tried something else because i guess it's better when decrypted

On linux in general and decrypting the RUU is way more complicated and difficult than it sounds. An encrypted RUU will do you just fine.

What do you mean by putting the phone in "recovery"? You shouldn't be in your recovery when using fastboot. You should be in your bootloader. Power off device, then press and hold the volume down key and the power key. Release when you see your hboot appear. Using your volume keys to move up and down you want to highlight the option, fastboot. Hit the power button to select fastboot. You are now in fastboot mode. You will see fastboot in red text. Plug your device into your pc and you should now see, fastboot usb, in red text. Using the terminal on your pc proceed to lock your bootloader using fastboot. Then proceed with my instructions in the other post.

yeah of course i did it. Being in the recovery was just a try with a toolkit which is used to relock.
i know how fastboot works but i've got error messages with fastboot oem lock and by flashing the ruu the last thing after the signature checking fails because of my bootloader unlocked i guess.
