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.

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.

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.

Hey all,
So tonight I attempted to install the Unofficial AOKP Jelly Bean posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1862156
Before doing that, I followed the instructions to Unlock, Recovery, and Root my One S here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583427
After following those instructions, I then followed the instructions for AOKP Jelly Bean however my sdcard couldn't be mounted and the phone was in a boot loop if I didn't boot into fastboot by holding down the volume - and power buttons.
I attempted these instructions below however I couldn't get a stock recovery flashed.
1) Use the All-in-One-Kit and flash your recovery back to stock
2) Boot into the bootloader and choose to "clear storage" and afterwards to reset to factory defaults.
3) Go back to the all-in-one-kit and flash a CWM recovery version again.
4) Reboot into recovery (CWM). Your /sdcard should now be mounted and visible.
5) Now, try the UTB rom (it worked for me), rename the zip file to something short (i.e. utb.zip), and push it to the sdcard using adb as follows:

Still caught in the reboot loop, I relocked and tried to run an RUU file found here: http://www.htconeforum.com/forum/ht...e-your-htc-one-s-back-100-stock-relocked.html
I was able to successfully re-lock the phone however every time I try to run the RUU file it comes back with an error about 3-5 minutes into the process.
At this point, my phone boots into fastboot. At the top I have "Tampered, Relocked, Security Warning." My HBOOT is 1.14.0004 and my Radios is 1.08ts.50.02.16
I would appreciate any help if there is a solution. Thank you for your time!
Update: Not sure if this is helpful or not, but whenever I try to do something with The All in one toolkit the cmd window says device not found. Also, when I try to boot into recovery from fastboot, I get a green downward and circular arrows before getting the red triangle and exclamation point.
Update: Running the RUU mentioned above fails at the Signature stage and the cmd prompt when trying to write recovery returns "signature verify fail"
Are you s4 or s3? what kind of computer you got? The drivers need to be installed. then read up how to use android SDK. Then retry to flash the stock recovery using the same steps in your quote.

I am pretty sure I am S4 (tmobile USA). I am on a windows 7 home build, and the drivers should be installed (at least, I could use HTC sync before all of this). I'll definitely try again tonight. If anyone has any other suggestions they would be much appreciated!
Make sure HTC sync is NOT active on your pc. Try searching for the original version of one s all in one toolkit. It has the stock recovery. I'm pretty sure this unbrick method works for all hboot versions but don't take my word for it. Focus on your goal. Get stock recovery flashed. You can also try unlocking your boot loader again and using the all in one to reflash cwm. In some cases like mine. The unofficial cwm touch is the only successful flash I got. Ps. Try having your phone in fastboot. Plug in USB and see if it says "fastboot USB" then type your android SDK directory for your fastboot folder. For example open cmd
cd\
cd androidsdk\tools
androidsdk\tools fastboot devices.
Fastboot devices command will tell you if your drivers are working.
You can also type in adb devices instead of fastboot devices.
Hope this helps. But you probably already know this

Here are my results:
HTC Sync is not running. Fastboot devices returns a device ID so that seems good. When trying to flash a stock recovery (that I got on this forum somewhere, but can't remember where) it sends it ok but I still get "remote: signature verify fail"
I unlocked the device and flashed TWRP 2.2.2.0 with the all in one tool kit. This put me back into the boot loop mentioned above. Once I manually got back into the bootloader and selected recovery, I was able to get into the TWRP recovery. At this point, I am kind of worried about doing anything. I would like to be able to push AOKP Unofficial JB if at all possible. Any further guidance would be appreciated!
Please, please don't use the toolkit. It makes people find problems later on and not know a thing about what to do.

It is clear to me that I didn't do enough research before getting into this. I thought my experience with putting custom roms on my galaxy S (a phone I really disliked) would give me the appropriate background. Clearly I was wrong! I'm a little unsure how to flash AOKP through TWRP when AOKP is not on my SD card. In fact, when I look at the SD card in TWRP, the only file on it is "TWRP."
I think I need to flash TWRP 2.3.0 (rather than the 2.2.2.0 I have), because it supports ADB Sideload (talked about here on their site which I can't yet link to). Can I do that through the Android SDK like I have been doing? I don't need to do anything to the TWRP 2.2.2.0 before trying to flash 2.3.0 do I? It seems if I do that, I could send AOKP to my phone through adb when it is in recovery.
And just for my better understanding, what is different about flashing it in TWRP and then flashing the boot.img in fastboot?
Thanks again!
You have to fastboot push the AOKP zip through the bootloader I think.

Just like the post above mine says, you have to adb push the file onto the sd card. I'm not to familiar with TWRP (using it actually got me into a bit of a dilemma) so I only know the process for CWM. If TWRP is anything like CWM then you have to be in recovery to adb push and have sdcard and system set to "unmont". It's pretty easy and there's a couple threads explaining how to do it. The command basically is :: adb push romname.zip /sdcard/romname.zip:: Note the space before "/sdcard" I'dpn't know if this ill help you or if you've solved your problem already but this is just my 2 cents, good luck!
Sorry for my late reply; I was rushed to the ER last night in excruciating pain. Looks like I'll be dealing with a kidney stone over the next few days.
So far, I have tried to push AOKP through fastboot. ADB says "no devices found" and when I type adb devices, I get "List of devices attached" and nothing under it. However, when I type fastboot devices, I do get a device ID. As of now, I am downloading the TWRP 2.3 recovery and will try to sideload with adb with that.
Update:
I was able to successfully install TWRP 2.3 and adb sideload the AOKP zip file. The phone then went back into a reboot loop, and I was able to get into recovery to install the .zip. The phone then rebooted, showed the HTC with red text screen very briefly, went to black, showed the HTC with red text screen again, went black, and now the aokp boot animation is repeating over and over. It has been doing so for about 5-7 minutes. I haven't yet installed gapps as mentioned in the AOKP post (I'm honestly not even sure what that is). Where should I go from here?
As a side note, the phone is plugged into power though the LED is not lighting up. It was at 98% when I flashed the .zip, but I obviously don't want it to die on me. Should I turn the phone off or is it still charging?

The newer hboot versions (1.13 and up) don't let you flash boot images in recovery, even if it reports success.
So there is technically no difference, except fastboot always works and recovery depends on hboot version.
Did you fastboot flash the boot image that comes with your rom?
-Jobo
Edit to add: So it seems that following the recipe in your post #1 did in fact make your sdcard mountable again, or did you do something else as well for that?
Fixed!
I ended up flashing the boot.img with fastboot and then going into recovery, factory resetting and then re-installing the rom (and gapps which I now know stands for google apps). I'll be playing around with the ROM but at least I have a working phone again!
I think, in the end, it came down to my sd card not being mounted and my lack of knowledge about how to fix it.
Hi Everyone,
So i followed all the steps to temp root 2.20 including successfully installing TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project). I then downloaded the CM10 rom and extracted the boot.img as per posts and rebooted into the bootloader and flashed the boot.img from CM10 via Fastboot. However after doing then rebooting to Recovery mode in order to flash the ROM, i get stuck in the red text where it gives you a warning about it being in development mode or something.
I am able to successfully boot into the bootloader via Power+down volume. Additionally I am able to boot into the TWRP recovery just fine, however I am lost and have no clue how to restore my phone to either the CM10 ROM or most importantly at least to stock working condition.
When i got to mount the SDCARD via twrp normally i would get a pop up on my screen and allow me to access my SD card, now i get a pop up just telling me that i need to format my SD card first. I'm afraid some how my SD card got wiped or something.
Can someone please walk me through the steps on how to restore my phone. Please if possible i would appreciate using LAME terms as i do not have any experience as you can tell i screwed up :/ Can you please listed step by step instructions including commands for Fastboot/adb etc etc if needed. Thank you very much for your help and support.

I know you tried to help, but it appears now I have bricked the phone. Hopefully i can fix it as i still have access to Bootloader and TWRP recovery. I'll PM you in the morning, thank you.
dont factory reset in bootloader. only factory reset in twrp. sometimes evita has a hard time getting into recovery from bootloader. just keep trying to get into recovery from bootloader. also even if your phone doesn't boot all the way adb sometimes still works. so try "adb reboot recovery" while its trying to boot.
if you did corrupt your sdcard try this method to get it fixed without having to run ruu.
[How to] Fix corrupt/unmountable internal storage on the HTC One X/XL
when you get your sdcard fixed remember to wipe everything and then copy cm10 and gapps to your sdcard and flash. since boot.img is already flashed you shouldn't need to do it again.
you did flash boot.img as "fastboot flash boot boot.img"? i made the mistake of flashing boot.img to recovery instead of boot. i was freaking out. just to make sure flash recovery again "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-evita.img"

you did flash boot.img as "fastboot flash boot boot.img"? i made the mistake of flashing boot.img to recovery instead of boot. i was freaking out. just to make sure flash recovery again "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-evita.img"

Yes i did fastboot flash boot boot.img from within the Bootlader. FYI that boot.img was from inside the CM10 zip file. I belive my SD card is corrupt i will check out that link. FYI I am able to get into Recovery mode form the Boatloader if i chooser recovery. However since the SD card seems messed up i can't access it currently. Also I tried to use the method to install the CM10.zip file using TWRP recovery. That recovery has a GUI and you can click on the INSTALL button and choose the zip file you want to install, however it errors out.
What is the proper way to flash a rom when i am in the TWRP recovery? Can you provide me with the commands/steps? Thanks for all your support guys.

install/install from zip/browse to your zip/slide to flash (they really should patent that)
now most of us, to do a clean flash, we'd go into the "wipe" menu in TWRP before flashing , factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe system. then we flash our rom.
hope that cleared it up!

You won't be able to flash anything until you fixed your sdcard using the method in that link.
Ptesmoke where have you been? DvineLord is the only one been helping here. The Q&A thread is a mess. where is edditsync chongo, rohan and the other superhero's. I feel like Hawkeye trying to shoot sh#@ down with a bow and arrow. Waiting for ironman, hulk, Thor and the other avengers to get real sh#@ done. I'm tired going to sleep now.

I tried to fixed corrupted SD card as per video. however after flashing the recovery.img via fastboot when it wants me to do a factory reset instead of doing the factory reset it just goes back to the HTC brilliant screen with the red warning text and sits there. If i go to twpr recovery and click on install i can't access me zip currently due to sd card issues.
Is there a way to format via PC since it lets me as long as I am in twpr and just put stock files/folders onto the SD card? Or is it possible to install the 2.20 ruu again? I re-downloaded it form HTC's site while I am in twrp however I cannot install it won't detect my phone. Thanks for your help.
"fastboot oem lock" then run ruu. ruu gets run in fastboot.
after the ruu, reunlock bootloader and flash twrp, copy cm10 and gapps to your sdcard, flash boot.img in fastboot, wipe everything except for external storage in twrp, flash cm10 and gapps in twrp, then reboot.
If you can get into twrp and go to mount, mount usb storage and connect your phone windows should prompt you to format the SD card.
Once that's done you can drag and drop the rom you want to flash then boot into fastboot and flash the boot.img.
If you want to run the ruu you need to relock the bootloader first.
To do that you must go into fastboot usb and then type fastboot oem lock.

I'm sorry i'm not too tech savy. Can you clarify how to Fastboot OEM lock. Assuming i just need to be in fastboot mode and run a command in command prompt?
Also once that is done how can i run RUU via fastboot? Right now i have HTC RUU for 2.20 from august that i downloaded from their site and not sure how i can have it detect my phone. If you could clarify and explain those steps in Lame terms i would greatly appreciate it, thanks in advance.

That's the command you do and the ruu is an exe file so get into fastnoot on your phone from bl and run the ruu after you've locked the bootloader
Thank you both will try that now.
Hey guys thanks for all your help and your support it worked. I had the wrong CM10 file instead of Evita i had the other one :/ That was the issue all along ugh... but all resolved could of not have done it without your support. Thanks!! I can now finally go to bed.. been at it since 10pm, now 3:11am
Maybe you can help me . I'm having the same problem. The problem is, everytime I try to use any fastboot commands, it'll say "waiting for device". I'm stressing out.

Make sure you have the right drivers installed, download the latest htc sync from htc's website.
Install HTC sync connect phone and let the drivers install, then make sure you close htc sync from the system tray and try again.
Like DvineLord said below make sure you're in the bootloader then select Fastboot once selected it should say in red writing Fastboot USB.
fastboot only works in bootloader btw
Hit the thanks button for the people helping you fix your boo boos.
If you can type it, click it for them, least you can do in return.

Ok, I can boot into Hboot, but when I choose recovery, I get stuck in a loop on the logo with the red disclaimer.(yes I cleared cache) I tried installing a rom and after that I cannot boot into ANYTHING. Just a loop. Hboot 1.14 I just want a working rom at this point. Stock is fine. But I am totally at a loss right now. Am I screwed? Thank you for your time.
I tried CM, Stock Recover, TWRP.....
HTC One X ATT
Rooted
Bricked?
Try to reflash the recovery and try again. Do you have the Evita or endeavor?
Sent from my Carbon-ize Evita using xda-developers app
Need to be more specific, but try this and for future reference
Are you unlocked? Did you fastboot flash boot boot.img (always do this when on hboot 1.14 or higher)?
Give me all the info you can about your phone. Recovery version, rom that was flashed, but failed, what did you do when flashing the rom step by step?
This should be fixable by ruuing heres a link on the basic directions
http://onexroot.com/one-x-unroot/how-to-unrootunbrick-att-one-x/
I think you can't use 2.20, you probably need a later ruu. Hope this works, but don't do this until after you have provided more info
---------- Post added at 01:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:19 AM ----------
And I or someone better than me at this has given you the OK to.
Tried all of the fastboot methods
I have tried reflashing multiple times, multiple versions of TWRP. was trying to follow this youtube vid ((HD) Samsung Galaxy SIII (S3) Touchwiz for HTC One X - Cursed4Eva)
I only got to install the gapps file from the vid, then it failed to flash anything else.
**tampered**
**unlocked**
Grab version 2.3.3.0. It works just fine for me. Also when you get into recovery you need to flash the ROM and then flash the boot image.
Also if you can, open up fast boot and type "fastboot OEM getvars" and paste the results. It could be getvar if the previous does not work.

Any rom in the AT&T one xl sections. Evita is the phone we have, endeavor is the quad core one x, cross flashing has a high chance of bricking your device. Have you done any reading before risking your expensive piece of equipment?

First of all you should have done more research before flashing stuff on your phone. Youre lucky your phone is still alive after flashing that international rom buddy.
Second the command fastboot oem getvar is incomplete. THats why you are getting the error. Getvar must be followed by something like fastboot oem getvar cid.
So one more time.
First make sure you have plenty of battery
1 Boot into hboot.
2Select fastboot and press the power button.
3 Open fastboot in command prompt and and type "fastboot devices"
4 If it shows a serial number it is recognizing your phone. If not try different cables and ports
5 IF recognized type "fastboot flash recovery ( navigate back to your fastboot folder and drag the recovery.img into the command window. The recovery.img MUST be in the same folder as the fastboot program!!)"
6 Press enter.
7 Type "fastboot erase cache"
8 Type "fastboot reboot recovery"
If this doesn't work you have another problem. I would suggest running a ruu if your're not super cid. To check super cid boot back into fastboot mode and type "fastboot oem getvar cid" If it shows "11111111" you have super cid and cant run a ruu. If not you can run a ruu.
If the steps above did work and your're now in recovery. Then.
1 Wipe everything. Cache/dalvik cache/system/android secure/ and sdcard.
2 Mount sdcard and transfer your rom to your sd card. MAKE SURE THE ROM IS FOR THE DUAL CORE ONE XL EVITA model. For now just stick with a sense rom. If you want a suggestion I suggest you use this one for now. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2181891
3 Once transfered. Safetly unmount sdcard and flash the rom.
4 Select reboot bootloader in recovery.
5 Once in hboot select bootloader.
6 Open the rom you just flashed and copy the boot.img that is in the root of the zip to the folder where you have fastboot.
7 Type "fastboot devices" to see if the pc recognizes the phone.
8 If you see a serial number the pc recognizes your phone.
9 Type "fastboot flash boot (go back to explorer and drag the boot.img from the fastboot folder to the command window."
10 Hit enter
11 Press the vol down button and navigate to power off.
12 Hit the power button.
13 Once phone is completely off press and hold the power button till the phone comes on.
14 If it still boot loops a ruu is your only option.

Ok
First I recommend you to unlock your bootloader.
So if you are in bootloader and your device is not recognised I think it´s a driver issue.
If you allready checked it check it once more or update your tools (ADB, fastboot)
If nothing helps you could go to recovery and format your device (not only wipe format) should be clear that all data on device is lost.
Try different recoverys some people report that philz also works fine on M_4. (try install new rom option on philz).
DONT flash stock sense 6 ROM (wrong partition layout for this hboot) with this hboot rather take 5.5.
I´m sorry but without get connectet via ADB or fastboot I think there is no chance to get it working again.

I tell you in short terms:
If you can´t get a fastboot connection to your device it looks very bad to bring your device back.
For wiping something you need recovery for flashing new recovery you need fastboot.
For flashing a new firmware to fix messed up partitions you need fastboot.
And first of all to unlock your bootloader you need fastboot.
You see all ends up with fastboot.
As what the device is shown in the manager of windows?
Better to use Windows 7 there are much driver problems people reporting on win 8

If you have a connection via fastboot you first have to decide what ROM you want, search for the matching firmware.
for example flash the latest firmware for M_4... 4.09.401.3 from here (new partition layout for e.g. sense 6):
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzCFBBNdXagdcEMybkdBME5iUE0/edit
After that flash TWRP 2.7.1.1 or philz and format all you have to try one of this recoverys should work.
Next push or sideload a ROM via adb I recommend you one them:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc...-official-stock-sense-6-rom-firmware-t2817921
You can decide what you want rooted or not it doesn´t matter.
After installing with succsess try to reboot that´s it.

I encountered a similar issue when playing around with returning my device to stock. I flashed stock recovery, then re-locked my bootloader. What is the downloading screen you're seeing? Is it the stock recovery screen?
To fix, i had to change CID back to stock (for me that was, CWS__001)
Unlock bootloader again, using HTC unlock.bin (unlock.bin wouldn't work when i was on super cid)
Flash custom recovery TWRP 2.6.3.0 (I'm not sure if 2.7.1.1 works with the old partition layout, so i used this version until i had upgraded to hboot 2.22, then I flashed 2.7.1.1. This may be an unnecessary step, but it always worked for me)
Once twrp was working again...
Flash stock hboot 2.22 found in the dev section
Flash TWRP 2.7.1.1 (again, might be an unnecessary step)
Boot to recovery
From TWRP, adb push the sense 6 rom i wanted to flash (IC 3.07 in my case)
After the push completed, flash ROM and reboot and all was good
As you can see, the steps i took require that fastboot and adb drivers work flawlessly, especially when pushing ROM to the device using abd.
If any of this seems unfamiliar, then don't do these steps. Again, this is just what i did when i flashed stock recovery and re-locked bootloader with a ROM that wouldn't boot.

Did you get fastboot working yet? Does "fastboot devices" show your device? You can't do anything until fastboot works...but I imagine it worked at some point, since you unlocked and re-locked your device.
You can't install recovery because your bootloader is locked. And you can't unlock your bootloader until you change your CID back to whatever it was when you created the unlock.bin file on the HTC website.
Are you getting this error when you attempt to unlock?
FAILED (remote: unlock token check failed)

That's what i had to do when i first tried to root my phone. I was on Windows 7, but it was an old install and had all kinds of software on it that might have been preventing usb from working (iTunes, HTC Sync, some other random software, etc.) Sometimes, I would even have trouble connecting an external HD!
I ended up installing a clean copy of XP on an old computer that i now use strictly for flashing stuff to my phone.
New problem
I have 4.3 on my HTC now and have received an update for 4.4.2, however when I try this it goes a quarter of the way then comes up with a red triangle and exclamation point. The device is still rooted somehow. Can you help me update?

I don't think OTA will work on unlocked/tampered device with custom recovery.I think you need to run ruu.exe if one is available for you to get 100% stock before OTA will work again.

Hi Guys

I tried to install different roms but it gets stuck on the ´Next´ button immediatly after loading the Rom in TWRP. Is that because of S-off? I didn't do that.
I cannot start my phone now.
PLease advice,

change your recovery to 4ext
http://d-h.st/rG7
extract the recovery.img and flash it via fastboot command
the command is fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
then from 4ext format all partitions except sdcard
enable smartflash from 4ext(if you are on S-ON)
flash the rom
done
note: enable smartflash exactly before flashing the rom
i'll give it a try at home. Thank you!
I'll let you know.
Thank you so much! It worked really good
So happy

extract the recovery.img and flash it via fastboot command
the command is fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
then from 4ext format all partitions except sdcard
enable smartflash from 4ext(if you are on S-ON)
flash the rom
done
note: enable smartflash exactly before flashing the rom

boot your device to the bootloader,select fastboot and connect it to the pc
extract the recovery.img from the link above and place it in the folder where you have adb/fastboot files in your pc
open a command window from that folder and type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot bootloader
then you will have 4ext recovery installed

I've used OneX AIO tool to flash it, and now I have 4ext Recovery Touch and my Sensation is alive again! Thank you!
Hi guys I tried to flash ''cm-13.0-20151108-UNOFFICIAL-pyramid'' via ''TWRP-2.8.7.0-pyramid-r9-cm13'' but that failed, ever since I am stuck at the HTC logo, I tried to flash numerous older firmwares but try to factory reset/wipe I get an ''unable to format storage'' so any Rom I try fails. It was previously running older version of CM fully rooted which I have fully backed up via CWM but now cant restore is due to TWRP & CWM being incompatible.
I have tried so many ADB commands but ADB only responds when in TWRP any time else like in Fastboot I get absolutely no response at all, I have also tried to flash CWM back any way possible but have failed same with ''4EXT-Recovery-Touch-v1.0.0.5-RC5-PG58IMG''. Also tried RUU but kept on receiving 'Connection Error' even though the USB cable was connected & works fine, also tried using ''Sensation_All-In-One_Kit_v3.1'' no luck either with any of its commands.
I have attached the Bootloader screen if it can help with this boot loop.
I have never has such issues with Samsung Phones so I am a total noob with HTC phones so any help would be really great.
Any help would be really great from this amazing community!
TWRP has broken my partition table. I cannot format via parted due to the fact it now has 'overlapping partitions'. No recovery can fix this including 4ext. Completely stuck at the minute. I don't want to use a microsd card as storage when I have internal storage available. Is there anyone that can help or has had any success? I am S-OFF and bootloader UNLOCKED.
Tried stock RUU via P58..zip and get's stuck part way through (I think at system or SD)
Help! I'm sure there's someone that can fix the partition table. The format of the internal storage sd is fat32 - which I believe is where the problem started from. I don't want to let this problem defeat me although I have spent an age trying to sort it...too late to give up
Any help is highly appreciated.
Cheers

Yeah how did you do it? Too late for me now though as my device is S-OFF and I'm stuck in QHUSB_DLOAD bricked mode. I have tried unlimited.io's s-off etc no joy. Wonder if there is ever going to be anything that can take me out of this apart from jtag.

What I've done has been, through a PC with Windows Vista (I have been unable to get anything with Windows 8 onwards ), I installed the HTC One X All In One tool, and in the part where the recoverys are located, there are three (CWM, TWRP and other), I went to the Data / Recoveries folder and I deleted the TWRP, replacing this with an image of 4EXT Recovey Touch, and putting the same name that has the recovery erased. Then I went to the tool, I installed TWRP (which was 4EXT which replaced it) and my Sensation revived. Good luck!
For me it is not loading to 4ext, after flashing it..... stuck at htc logo. if i install twrp or cwm it boots to it... any idea how to fix it?
