[Q] HTC ONE XL Root Help (stuck in an unknown situation) - General Questions and Answers

Hi
Last weekend i decided to dust off a family members HTC One XL (Telstra Australia Model) and give it some new life by rooting it and flashing CM11...
Little did i know that i was flashing a HTC One X version onto a One XL i stupidly thought the XL was larger but i was clearly wrong...
However i managed to flash a correct recovery which was TWRP v2.7.1.2 and after multiple attempts at flashing a new rom CM10 and CM11 it will not boot at all and is stuck at either the bootloader or recovery.
I messed around searching various forums and havent found much help as the XL is the least common of phone models.
I have yet run into another issue when i mount the device it shows 0mb of available space and wont appear on my computer. I have however been doing everything on a MAC but have a windows PC at my disposal if i need to use that.
I spent hours looking and troubleshooting and have turned to XDA forums for help, anything is greatly appreciated even returning it back to stock will be great!
Thanks
Aston

Urgently Need help for My htc OneX+ !!!

Hi friends
im new here so this is my second post considering my earlier one i got no reply, what i want is help from any android expert in solving my problem. see i recently got the HTC one X plus and unlocked the bootloader, and installed clockwork mod recovery and rooted my phone. now when i receive the offical jb ota update, i cannot update it and it says error and i abort the installation and then reboot the phone in clockwork mod. and by the way all this unlocking and rooting is done thanks to Hasoons2000 tool kit, bless that developer who made this toolkit. so after researching reading many forums and find out that we have to use stock recovery image for htc one +. to fix the problem , i cant find any One X + stock recovery image all i can see are htc one X stock recovery image. but i need the one specific to my phone model.
Also it would be of great help if you show me the process of using stock recovery on hasoons2000 toolkit for oneX+
Since i dont want to risk bricking my expensive phone. so guys if you have the solution to my problem please do help me out.!!

[Q] Need Help With HTC ONE V (Virgin Mobile)

hey whats up xda. im new to the website, and i had a couple of questions i had, and some stuff i needed help on. A MILLION sorrys if i posted this in the wrong place.
Well i have a HTC ONE V from virgin mobile, i rooted it about 4 months ago, i installed a custom recovery on it too, but whenever i go on it i can only use the side keys to move up and down but i cant select anything. i dont know if i maybe installed the wrong recovery? (got it from a guide on android forums) i was afraid to do anything else, because alot of people that installed custom roms and theyre stuck on the HTC screen, i need my phone for work, so i cant afford having it rendered "unusable" haha.
Ant suggestions on what to do?
Thank you very much for the answers!

Try to reboot your phone into recovery than factory reset your phone and wipe out both caches and finally reflash the ROM. Hope so, it will work.

[Q] HTC One X+ Can't get into cwm recovery

Hi guys
As you may have noticed; I have a HTC One X+ (4.2.2)
I ain't super experienced when it comes to rooting, but neither a complete stranger.
There is a guide on Youtube from "zedomax" that I followed. The first problem was; I couldn't acces my HTC on my mac. After a few tries it did. I got the token to unlock the bootloader, and unlocked the device succesfully. I had to copy a file to my HTC (I searched the web for the latest "supersu" and the "clockworkmod". The clockworkmod said "OKAY". I went in to fastbootmode, and when I try to start the cwm recovery (by choosing recovery in fastbootmode) my HTC One X+ just decides to turn off (in a state charging is impossible) when I turn the phone back on, it starts the normal way. I have been searching for ages to find a solution, and would be surprised if someone actually knew what's wrong.
Guide I followed: can't use link
- I tried windows and mac
So please, help me out here (and others with the same problem)

Have you tried TWRP? Remember, not all recoveries work on all phones.

I haven't
I did find a useful guide on xda. I wonder if it is still up to date and if I can continue from a step halfway, since the phone is already unlocked?
Anyway. I will find out.
but thanks for the advise anyway

[Q] [Help] HTC One Mini International Version

I can't find anything really for the international HTC One mini. I wiped it on accident because of an outdated recovery and new partitions. I'm having a problem with adb and I don't have an OS to boot too.
I was going to use a stock recovery, but I can't find one.
I don't see any RUU for an international one, even a stock one, except for an ATT version.
I've tried updating my fastboot and adb, i downloaded the whole sdk and updated it with no luck.
I downloaded HTC sync hoping to get some extra drivers, but still no luck.
I've used 3 different twrp recoveries, including the ones with the new layout and still no luck.
Can someone please help? The One Mini forum is super dead and I can't post in the development forums for help since I'm new.
I'm not new to rooting, I've rooted 2 HTC Ones, an HTC Evo, and before it messed up, I had unlocked, and rooted the Mini.
I don't know what to do man, I really need this phone to work haha.

I am a complete novice at playing with android phones but thought i`d have a play. I bought a htc one m7 that was not working and sent it to htc to repair which they did but ,apparently the phone had been bootloaded and they put this back on the repaired phone. Hence when i got it back , it all worked but i could not make calls. Sooo after reading some forums i tried to put a new rom on it, Android Hd one 84.0. Now the phone is stuck in a boot/recovery loop and is not recognised on my computer!! i`ve tried to adb sideload but this doesnt seem to load. Unfortunatley i didnt back up the the data before i done all this. Please help as im using an iphone and its killing me!!!!

Maybe it's just a bootloop and not a brick.
(Bootloop = neverending booting process, brick = either the download or the recovery mode doesn't work any more)
Here are some useful threads about those issues on your device:

If you have further questions, please ask in the So you came at XDA-Developers to find help? (Beginners Thread) or directly in the One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.
Good luck !
Thanks. Have tried all of your suggestions but no joy. Having read the suggestions I noticed it said about re locking the boot loader before installing a rom? If i say exactly what I done maybe I somebody may be able to tell me my errors?
Unlocked using htcdev and rooted. Tried to get s-off using rum runner but it failed with a message"unfortunatley this isn't going to work out with your configure, you have 2 options
1) flash an unsecure kernel that's compatible with your rom
2)flash a different rom.
Have tried to reinstall Android hd one 84.0 from recovery mode, Get a message on installation page at the end saying set_metadata_recursive:some changes failed.
On reboot it goes straight to recovery page and if I go into fast boot the phone shows in the device manager but not as a drive???
