[Q] [Help] [Solved] One X Stuck at Fastboot, Out of Ideas, Failed RUU

Hello, after looking into my problem all night (it is 4 a.m. now) I still cannot get my One X out of its issue.
Background to this story:
Bought this phone from a friend who had TWRP2 as the recovery, unlocked, s-on, supercid. I wanted to upgrade to a newer ROM, specifically Carbon on Jellybean 4.2.2, and I needed to update hboot to accept the newer ROM. Follow the procedures of multiple threads and they all lead me down the same path of re-locking your bootloader and let the install do the rest. However, the installer has failed multiple times (error codes 140 and 158) and I am now stuck and have no idea where to go next.
The current status of the One X is not to great. It now has a relocked bootloader, HBOOT version of 2.14.0000, A broken recovery, what seems to be a mismatched baseband, Stuck at FASTBOOT USB, no ADB, will not boot into a ROM, RUU will not complete its job (fails at sending ROM), and I am all out energy and grammar.
*Trying to re-unlock the bootloader via HTCdev will NOT unlock it.
I am stuck, (yea I am a noob). If you need anymore info, just ask.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think you should try and flash the stock recovery and then RUU. I couldn't find the stock recovery in RedPoint's compilation roll-up thread, but I found it on a youtube video when I searched "att one x stock recovery". After you get the stock recovery installed I believe you should be able to then RUU.

Flashing the stock recovery only really applies when you're trying to take an OTA, it isn't required for an RUU.

whoooops just kidding then. might worth a shot to give it a try though? I was just tossing out ideas.

I am not exactly sure how to do that.

I honestly don't think that's going to help you anyway.

Alright, gonna need to fix it later. (Recovery still broken, I assume because of the failed RUU)

Which RUU are you trying to run?
Is this the AT&T version of the One X?
Be aware that running any Jellybean RUU (3.18, 3.17) with S-on and SuperCID will brick the phone. So if you were trying to run a JB RUU, it might actually be a good thing it didn't install.
If you were trying to run an older RUU (2.20, etc.) then it will fail since the hboot version is older (hboot 2.14 goes with 3.1x).
Do you still have a TWRP nandroid available (if not, whey the heck not?!?!). Have you tried to flash TWRP again using fastboot? If that works you can try to get your nandroid restored. With S-on, be aware that you will need to flash the boot.img for that ROM separately using fastboot.

As already pointed out by timmaaa, this is incorrect. RUU installs stock recovery on its own, and stock recovery is therefore not needed for an RUU (only an OTA).

Yes, this is the AT&T version.
I was trying to do an RUU with RUU_Evita_UL_Cingular_US-1.73.502.2_2FE6772699D8596307CC997452BB8D25.
Anytype of backup was made on the phone with TWRP, if TWRP still exists on the phone, it should be there.
I have not tried flashing TWRP back. I can try that next, can you point me in the right direction? Which version of TWRP do you recommend? (I am a noob)
"With S-on, be aware that you will need to flash the boot.img for that ROM separately using fastboot." I am not aware of this, (again, noob) do I just extract the boot.img from the zip and use 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' ?

It looks like the problem is that you're trying to run an RUU that is older than your current firmware version. So, you would need to use a later RUU. But, like Redpoint said, if you are s-on and SuperCID this will brick your device. Maybe what you should try first is flashing TWRP recovery again and seeing if you can restore a backup or even just flash another ROM.
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 you can enter recovery on your phone and see if you can restore a backup. You are s-on so you will need to flash the boot.img from the ROM that's backed up after restoring it. If you didn't backup the boot partition you might be out of luck.
If this is the case, download a ROM (and gapps if it's an aosp ROM), extract the boot.img from the ROM zip and place it in your fastboot folder on your PC, copy the ROM zip (and gapps if applicable) to your phone, flash ROM zip (and gapps if applicable) in TWRP, reboot to bootloader, connect to pc, give this command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Reboot your phone and hopefully it will boot.

This is why you are getting errors 140 and 158. As timmaaa mentioned, you can't run an older RUU than the hboot that is already on your phone. The RUU you stated is very old, the 1.73 firmware with 1.09 hboot that came out at the phone's release. You are on hboot 2.14, so once the RUU sees that your hboot version is greater than that of the RUU (1.09), it fails.
Thye 3.18 RUU (which comes with hboot 2.14) would be what you want. BUT as already mentioned, you should not run this with S-on and SuperCID, as there is a bug with the Jellybean RUUs where this combo will brick the phone (not fixable without JTAG or new motherboard).
Follow timmaaa's steps in the previous post.

You might be in a catch-22 here then. As you know, you can't install custom recovery with a relocked bootloader (and S-on). You can keep trying to unlock it, but I'm not sure if that can be done if the phone can't boot.

Sorry, I missed that. As Redpoint said above, you might be in a catch 22 situation here unfortunately.

Yeah, normally RUU would be the answer. But the RUU bricking bug mentioned is stopping you from going that route.
Keep trying to unlock the bootloader. If you were able to relock in the current condition, maybe you can unlock. Unlocking is quirky and will fail, then will succeed after multiple attempts. So just the fact it hasn't worked yet, doesn't necessarily mean it won't.

I am currently not home to interface with the device physically (RDP). I should be returning around 4PM EST.
The superCID was written by the previous owner. Writing a generic CID (like HTC_001) is not an option with s-on, is it?
*Are there any RUUs that won't brick when flashing?

<Sorry for the double post but this post is different then my last>
Interesting thing, I can still write the recovery image even though fastboot claims it is 'relocked'. Here is the command line output.
sending 'recovery' (8028 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.993s]
writing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 1.720s
The signature checking failed, but it still accepted the image. Not sure if this means anything.

You could try hex editing your CID back to its original CID, but it must be the original CID to match the CID that the RUU is looking for, not just any CID. In order for this to work your would need to have adb fully working though. Please note the method I linked to above is to gain SuperCID, but the principle is the same, you just want to change 11111111 back to CWS__001 for an at&t phone.
The only RUUs that won't brick are the lower ones, which you can't run because you're s-on.

Fastboot claims it wrote the recovery image, it just failed the signature check, unless it reverted, should it still be there?
I am not home to try it. I am RDPing to my computer at home, which the phone is connected to. I should be home at 4PM EST (4 hours from now).

Being able to unlock the bootloader will solve all my issues, I should be able to try again when I get home.

It looks to me like it failed while writing, but I may be wrong. The info you just posted looks to be ok. I'd continue to try unlocking the bootloader.

Hi all, this is a little worry
Jai unlock the BL
Put the twrp
And the most way to reboot on Android
I try to ruu, custom nothing from nothing
It and s-on
I'm looking for a ruu in 2.16.1020.4
Cid 247 I believe
If someone has it would be nickel I am without such thanks

I believe your phone has to be locked when flashing a RUU. I think the right fastboot command for that is "fastboot oem lock". Then reboot your device with "fastboot reboot". Once re-locked install the right RUU. You can unlock afterwards if you'd like. Now I'm no pro, so don't blame me for bricking your device. But this seems to be pretty safe and is worth the try.

Your phone is s-on so that's the file you need. I don't know anywhere else where you could download this file from. It's either that or you can pay for sunshine s-off and convert to another version using a ruu from the ruu collection thread (i.e convert to the 2.xx.401.x version)
Another option would be to manually edit your version-main to 1.56.1020.70, flash a 1.56.1020.70 signed firmware and then the 1.56.1020.70 ruu.
The 1.56.1020.70 ruu is available at the ruu collection thread but not the 1.56.1020.70 firmware. So you would need to find one to use this solution (signed firmware.zip can be extracted from ota update so if you can find the 1.56.1020.70 ota we should be able to do something). You can read "how to downgrade with s-on" at the FAQ of the ruu thread to understand what i'm talking about. Once downgraded you will be able to install ota updates to be back on the latest version.

Bricked my U11 - Stuck in Download/Bootloader

Hello,
i hope some of you got an idea for fixing my problem.
1. One month ago i unlocked my bootloader and tested LeeDrOiD U11 V3.1.0 R107 because i had some problems with the camera and the battery. LeeDrOiD does'nt fixed the problems because it seems like a hardware battery problem.
2. After a few days i roled back to stock rom with my TWRP Backup without any new problems.
3. The battery problems are very irritating, so I decided to lock the bootloader and ship it to HTC. After saving my data with TWRP i locked the bootloader via fastboot. The status of the bootloader is no "Relocked".
4. The relocking of the bootloader the device booted without problems until the screen poped up: Your phone is encrypted. (i did not configured this before)
Status:
I can't fix the enryption problem. I have -5 try's left... i don't know how this can happen
I can't get into recovery because i get a Screen with: Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot
I tested a lot of RUU's and stock recovery's from the Google Docs Spreadsheet "HTC U11 - RUU/Firmware/Recovery/OTA Collection"
Tried
Flash the RUU. Every RUU i tested is denied because theres a "Security Version Problem"

For future reference, relocking the bootloader too early did this.
You can only do that after running the exact correct RUU for your version of U11 so that
you end up with stock recovery and locked system.

Is it possible to fix this problem with the right RUU or is the device bricked and only HTC can fix it?

I fixed the Problem. I downloaded again the correct RUU from google spreadsheet and copied it into the root of a micro sd card and boot to download mode. (rename the RUU file to 2PZCIMG.zip)

How about trying to install another recovery over the top of the old one see if that works, or just flash the correct ruu in download mode and just start over

My HTC is bricked and I can not access RUUmode, it is S-on and locked. There is no way to recover by fastboot? I tried but it leaves the message that is not possible in S-on. Thanks everyone for tries help me.

You need unlock your bootloader and use HTC Version Tool to downgrade to Nougat

Thanks @minhnewpro
At last we have now one place for the RUU.
I did notice a new Oreo RUU in Chinese forums but I think it's for a single SIM

Thanks for answering! Yes, I tried this, however I can't get the code to paste into the htcdev site. Error message, incorrect command or unknown command appears. I have already researched several tutorials to confirm the command and I can't. Any tipos?

Check your HTC driver, my driver version is HTC-Mobile-Driver-v4.17.0.001. Make sure PC reconized your phone and you have folder contain adb stuff.

Hey thanx for the collection, wanted to use it, but how do I fix the error "RU_MAIN_VER_FAIL os-version in android-info missing or i"? I have CID 034 so I used the CID_001_034 RUU.

Anyone help me, please!, @minhnewpro giúp mình với.

@minhnewpro I tried, unlock the bootloader but it does not give results. I already checked the adb / fastboot package, drivers, but nothing solves it.

Try reflash RUU if you are using android 7. Or reflash OTA file if you are using android 8.

I'm running into this same issue. I can't boot into my phone. Phone keeps rebooting on my splash screen. I can go into only fastboot screen. When I try and select either Boot to Download or Boot to Recovery mode it gots to the htc screen and then reboots and goes to the splash screen thus continuously rebooting. I have an unlocked AT&T US HTC U Ultra. When i run the below getvar I don't get any sim data.
Code:
fastboot getvar all

where do you live? single or dual sim? is it brand or is it free sim?
can you reboot in fastboot mode? here you can find all information
for example my phone codename is ocndugl = DUGL DUAL SIM EMEA
this is my htc u11 fastboot----- >https://drive.google.com/file/d/19g5JiOs72VV_GKjh9f7b51B6cUN0TtKW/view?usp=sharing
Or if you can reinstall twrp recovery, you can bypass pin screen

I live in Viet Nam. Single. Freesim i think so.
I can reboot in fastboot mode, but i cannot flash RUU, because all error.
My fastboot mode the same as you without RELOCKED, because i relocked it.
That's why i can't find way to reinstall twrp recovery.

Can somebody help ?
Is it brick and never go back ?

How to unlock if i can't go to usb debug ?

To sum it up, he
1. somehow tinkered with his phone when unlocked
2. relocked bootloader before restoring a stock pristine system
3. is now soft bricked cause he needs to RUU which isn't available as of yet, and we don't know if it'll get leaked
4. he can't boot to OS to re-unlock, S-OFF to downgrade, due to the above mentioned problems.
We're out of options here for the time being. Only one who might currently be able to restore the device might be HTC Support. But that may cost him, as they'll see that the device has been tinkered with.

If you have saved the unlock token from the first time you unlocked the phone, you can use this token again!
Simply flash unlock_code.bin with the command:
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin

I'm not the one who unlock it so i can't find it ....
Why it so hard

like a genius got too far into the tinkering and have done same. S-On so cannot change CID and re-locked so wont let me get into TWRP. Still have unlock bin but no joy as when I flashed custom it would have reset oem unlock to off so i get following:
(bootloader) flash unlocktoken
(bootloader) [KillSwitch] : /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/frp
(bootloader) [KillSwitch] Last Byte is 0X00, disable unlock
(bootloader) [KillSwitch] oem unlock Turn Off!
Obviously can't get back into Android to enable said unlock so seemingly out of options unless there is a way to flip that byte.

Also device is Telstra and there is apparently not a single Telstra (Australia) RUU for U11 on face of earth.
---------- Post added at 03:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:26 PM ----------
I do have a second Telstra U11 device around the house. Is there a way to image from that device to this one?

The problem is obvious. It's a Chinese phone. The firmware currently loaded is Chinese and you're trying to flash a Taiwanese firmware on a multi region cid.
My guess is that the phone has been messed with.
If flashing the same version firmware as what is on it now (2.47.1405.2) fails you will need to get the mid to check it matches the cid for region. If not you have problems ahead.

Can I ask what that tool was? And where did he get it? . Also when he went s- off what did he do to fix it? Just curious as I have been following this thread . Thanks

Cool. Maybe I could could have connected to this "tool" and fixed my U11 [emoji20][emoji22]. I also "relocked" my phone and couldn't find figure out how to fix it. I had to send my phone to the HTC repair shop a couple weeks ago. Still waiting for a positive response from them.
