Ok so I have unlocked and rooted my HTC One X and using TWRP I flashed the latest nightly. When it reboots and loads to the White HTC screen I no longer see the disclaimer in red lettering and then I get a CyanogenMod symbol rotating in a circle but it never full loads. Any Ideas? How long should I allow it to load or is it stuck in a loop. I have restored to back Up once already and rooted again and tried the process all over again with no luck. I never get past the rotating CyanogenMod symbol.
Extract Rom, move boot.img into adb and fastboot files, and flash it via fastboot. Then rezip, flash Rom through twrp

You have to download adb and fastboot, you can get them in the android SDK, or http://uploaded.net/file/xr60mwlt may have what you need

Sorry, I'm new here and just trying to figure this out. I apologize for the other post and realized I posted it in the wrong section.
No need to apologize, I was just pointing out to hit the thanks button for AbGrim and that had you waited just a bit longer or read more, your choice,.. you already had two people there start helping you.
These guys helping you an others have been doing everything they can to help the "New guy" that rushed rooting/flashing before under standing what he's/their doing.
As someone who loves these guys for their efforts it needs pointing out to the New guys to slow down and not trash the free help as some have.
Also to do a little leg work, like most of it, read the stickies familiarize oneself with things long before flashing.
This is probably the thirtieth thread where end result,
the guy forgot to learn to flash boot.img.
So someone's not reading much honestly.
Not ranting on you really, but you are front an center.
The mods can remove this post if they want or need to,
As I could not offer help, jmtc
I'll prob get a pm or two telling me to behave, that's ok.

You said that the red text is gone on the splash screen. Dos your bootloader still say unlocked or relocked?
And you did flash the boot.IMG from fastboot?
I'm thinking you didn't flash the boot.IMG since that site didn't say to

It is unlocked.
I've downloaded Android SDK. Move the boot image over. Did the command it says waiting for device and nothing happens. So then I put file in X-Factor and then it used same command. Same luck. So I dragged boot image into adb and fastboot and then went into recovery. Flashed from TWRP and Flashed Gapps. Then Rebooted. Still stuck in a loop.

Nope. Boot into your bootloader. Then into fastboot.
When you are in fastboot mode on your phone, try the command again.
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then go into recovery and flash the rom.
That should fix your problem

Have you not read? I followed the instructions to the letter. The super user guide did not include the instructions for boot image. Even Absolutelygrim verified this.

yes of course it does not include it it's guide that was written for an earlier version of hboot !!!
It also shows a picture of CWM, is that a good enough reason to use it ?
But what's the #1 instruction in the guide, let me quote it for you:
1.Read the install instructions provided by the ROM's developer. Some ROMs require multiple files be flashed when installing a ROM
really ???:silly:

The Super User guide is outdated for 2.2 rooting. However there are 100 other threads with your same problem. Reading the forums for 10 minutes before you flashed would have avoided all your problems.

Hi all not too sure if I am doing this right but here goes (if not sorry).I tried to do the facepalm method a couple of times to get S-OFF with my one S (S4) I did the supercid, installed Recovery and placed a new rom on( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2065357 ) all by using the AIO tool kit from this site. All upto date versions of drivers etc. I can get as far as point 5 on the Facepalm method and first time got “FAILED (remote: 92 supercid! please flush image again immediately)” which from what i can gather is correct. I then proceeded to the next stage which I then found I had not installed SU (Now this is where have a funny feeling where it went Pete Tong on me), so i installed SU then went back to point 6 which seemed to push all the files though fine but I had no S-OFF. So I scanned through the thread and found someone else with the same problem and they fixed it by installing VIPER 2.2 rom I think this is where thing really went wrong. After the rom installed it gave black screen of death but after some faffing I got it to the dead android with the red triangle and the exclamation inside it screen abd it got stuck rebooting like that for a while. I managed (After 6 hrs+) to install a RUU 3.15 EU stock rom and started from scratch again with the original rom that I used (see link above) now I all get is the 99 error (I now have SU and rooted) so any thought (apologies for spelling and grammar I know how you like that)
Hboot version 2.15 or 2.13 (can remember which can get into bootloader if you really need it to be exact)
Recovery is TWRP 2.4.4.0
Hope you can help
thanks in advance
U sure the 'black screen of death' wasn't the stock recovery? That's how it looks triangle with exclamation mark inside
Can't figure out what your problem is try going onto their chat thing and asking the dev for help but before you do...
Do u flash super su in recovery or install from play store? I have a habit to flash it in recovery because a lot of the time it didn't work for me when I installed it from the play store
Also ones you super CID reboot your phone 3 times, I had a problem when after SuperCID I had no CID and jcase told me to reboot a few times then it worked

I think it was stock recovery but it just didn't like the Viper Rom i think when I check the CID it is 1111111 so I know that has worked and I installed SU in the recovery. Oh and was my "windows" take on the black screen of death yes it was the recovery screen but it still took 6 hrs plus to get it from that screen and back to booting normally sorry thought I made sense my bad

Dude you don't flash a custom rom in stock recovery the stock recovery is used for flashing official ota's
Download twrp 2.3.3 (nothing higher) and flash it to the phone by going into hboot
And on computer type
Fastboot flash recovery "name of recovery. Img"
Then boot Into recovery and flash Viper
U need to read properly... Don't do it if u don't know what your doing you can very easily brick your device..
Sorry mate I think I either wrote it wrong or you misread somewhere I have unlocked a fair few phones I didn't flash the custom Rom through stock. After the soft brick with the viper Rom I put an ruu 3.15 on then went through all the aio tool kit from scratch again my bad for not explaining properly I am not that dumb ha ha cheers for the reply though

I'm pretty sure that the 99 error means you have to do a proper reboot. Turn off fastboot in the power settings, turn off the phone, turn it on again to the OS. Make sure the phone is rooted, make sure you have custom recovery. Go through the S-OFF procedure again.
Edit: ALSO WIPE YOUR CACHE IN RECOVERY!

Hi all,
Apology if this questions may already been ask millions of time but I am really stucked at the moment and hoping that someone may guide me to the correct direction.
I have got HTC One X-LTE (Evita)
I managed to get S-OFF and also CID - 111111
It has TWRP 2.6
The last time I got it working was on the STOCK 4.2.2 I downloaded from the XDA - then I got into the issues of rebooting and loosing signal from time to time. so I went into my TWRP backup I had and reflashed it using my old backup made from my TWRP.
the reflashed failed and now I can only boot up to the HTC logo and then black screen.
I can get to the TWRP recovery and I have got fastboot and ADB on my PC.
When I run the fastboot devices command --> it shows device connected BUT when i try ADB command ---> no device is found.
It will be much appreciated if someone can guide me to the right direction as I am really stucked at the moment not sure where to start.
I tried searching in the forum but I don't think I went to the correct area/tutorial.
Please help
Thank you
When you made your twrp backup did you select system,data, and boot? If it's hanging at the HTC screen it seems there is not boot.img installed or one that is incompatible with your backup. Open whatever Rom your backup is made from and copy the boot.img to your fastboot directory. Then reboot the phone into fastboot mode and flash the boot.img using this command.
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then reboot the phone and see what happens

When looking at the TWRP backup I copied into my PC - does not have the .img - the one I can find is MD5
Can I use the existing ROM I donwload from XDA like : EVITA_UL_JB_50_S_TMO_DE_5.08.111.2_By_Turge.zip
when I extracted EVITA_UL_JB_50_S_TMO_DE_5.08.111.2_By_Turge.zip - I can see the "boot.img" can I use this one?

I had a somewhat similar experience with Viper 4.0 ROM - I managed to get Cyanogenmod installed correctly (particularly this one). Take a shot and see if it works - atleast your phone will be up and working.

Hi Sandy
Thank you again for your help
I finally got my phone at least booting again.
What i did was I went to the fastboot and then correct to the PC and when it was asking for format the drive, I did format it (fingers crossed) and luckily it let me see the ROm I downloaded from the Stock 4.2.2 Turge version.
Now my problem is that the phone keeps rebooting.
I don;t know how to flash the kernel as suggested on the front page of the thread.
What is the most stable ROM at the moment?
I want to learn how to flash and fix this - I have kept reading post after post but I still can not get myself to where I want it to be which is fixing the reboot issue from the STOCK 4.2.2 Turge version.
I am a real newbie so I am not too familar with some of the fancy terms people use.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks again

You can either flash the kernel, which can be found in the Android Development section, flashing the kernel is just like flashing a ROM, just install in Beastmode. Or you can upgrade your firmware to 2.15, the instructions are I'm the first post of the ROM thread.
Asking which ROM is best/favorite/most stable is against the rules so we can't answer that question.
When you say the phone keeps rebooting, does it ever make it into the OS or is it boot looping (showing the boot animation then starting over)?

When you said that flashing kernel is the same as flashing ROM, I did it By going to TWRP and the press install and locate the zip file. Is this what should be done?
What is beast mode?
Sorry for the basic questions
Thanks
Yeah that's how you install the kernel. It must be done after you install the ROM. I kinda worded my reply a bit weird, sorry about that. Beastmode is the name of the kernel, you can find it here:

I did try to flash it through recovery but it always failed. Not sure why. I copied the kernel zip file into my phone sd and then I went to recovery and press the install and located the kernel zip file but still failed.

Recovery is 2.6.3.
The process failed on not able to fine the MD5 file or something like that. We don't need to extract the Zip file do we?

Disable md5 checking in settings. You never need to extract a kernel or ROM zip.

I have checked the setting in TWRP and nothing is ticked.
When I flash the zip, it is still saying "failed due to md5 does not exists".
I am not sure which should be address first but I now noticed that there is an error : "unable to locate storage device"
also came out.
When I plug my phone to PC I can see the storage but why it is saying "storage device not found" in TWRP?

I have downloaded and installed super user and its been working fine. Now when i open the super user app it says binary needs to be updated and it gives me a few options (normal) or (TWRP). I have installed TWRP but when i click on it it boots me into TWRP recovery with no file to flash. I guess im asking if anyone knows where i can get the latest version of super user apk at, so that i can flash it on my device. Im running 4.1.1 Thanks for any help in advance
So when it boots back into TWRP it doesn't start updating automatically?

Well, the screen kinda just sits there at the main menu. Il try again and just give it 10 minutes and see what it does. BTW thanks for the quick response
yeah its just staying at the main screen.
Have you try to flash SuperSu v1.80 or Superuser 3.2-RC3 in twrp (don't know wich version you have ?)
Have you tried just updating the binary the "normal" method? I know it says something about the recovery method being better for most HTC devices. But I've never had an issue doing it the "normal" way.
I had installed the newest version of twrp. AFter hearing that the older version was better i used the terminal emulator to flash 2.7.0.2 I rebooted the phone and now it will will only boot into recovery! Any ideas?! And since i was installing TWRP again i hadnt made a backup yet. Am i screwed?
