Hey guys! I just got a One X from AT&T bought on eBay, although I live in Europe.
I managed to unlock the bootloader by changing the CID to 1111111 etc. (how many 1's?) and it worked fine.
I then ran installed ClockworkMod Touch Recovery for the HTC One X through terminal and it was a success.
I rebooted by holding down the power and volume down, and attempted to boot into recovery. I got a white screen with the HTC logo, and red text underneath saying something like "do not use this without HTCs permission" or something of the sort. The phone then turned off.
NOW I'm trying to boot again into the bootloader (I think that's what it's called, but by turning it off and holding the volume down and power key) and it just doesn't work. I've tried a million times, with different variations of holding down the keys. What happens is the light on the touch keys at the bottom flashes a bunch of times, then it boots normally. Everything works on the phone otherwise.
I tried to do it via fastboot/terminal by issuing the command ./fastboot-mac reboot-bootloader but it just says "waiting for device..." even though it's connected.
Anyone had this problem and found a solution?
Recovery
Clockwork recovery is not supported on the evita. Download goo manager and you should be able TWRP from that. And then you can reboot into TWRP.
I think you flashed CWM for the international (Tegra3 quad core) One X. Install TWRP as previous poster recommended.
There is no version of CWM Touch Recovery that is supported for the AT&T One X. You flashed the international version. Fortunately, you can flash TWRP right over it inside Goo Manager.
Be thankful you didn't flash it inside ROM Manager or you could have bricked your phone. I've seen people do it in the past.

Thanks guys, and glad I didn't brick the phone!
I installed Goo Manager and installed OpenRecovery Script, and managed to attempt to go into recovery, but again got the white HTC screen and something about "development purposes only" in red text.
I think I'm really lost on this one, any help would be great, like a link to a tutorial?
in fastboot run this command "fastboot erase cache", then boot into recovery.

Don't be too concerned with the blah blah in red writing about development version etc. on the boot screen - you get that boot screen when you unlock the bootloader.

What did you do in recovery? Did you flash anything? Does the phone not boot up now?
Thanks guys for all your help. I guess know I technically know what to do to fix things, thanks to you. The only problem that after probably over 100 failed attempts I cannot boot into recovery. I tried all variations of holding the power and volume down button while restarting, rebooting, turning on/off or up/down sideways but it just boots normally every time.
This means I can't use fastboot etc. I guess unlocking the bootloader and voiding the warranty was for nothing
If you know another way to reboot into bootloader other than the hardware buttons method let me know!
Believe it or not, I think you are just performing the button presses incorrectly, if you can't access the bootloader. Bootloader is probably still intact, otherwise the phone would not be working at all.
1) In Settings>Power, make sure "fast boot" is not checked.
2) Then power the phone off fully, but holding the power button until the power menu comes up, and select "Power off". Wait a minute for the phone to power off completely.
3) Hold down the volume down rocker. DO NOT release it until I tell you to later.
4) Press the power button for 3 seconds, then release. DO NOT release the volume down rocker.
5) Once the white bootloader screen shows up, release the volume down rocker.
Alternately, you can do this:
a) With the phone powered on, hold the power button until the capacitive buttons flash (about 5 seconds).
b) The moment the screen goes black, hold down the volume down rocker, (again, DO NOT release it until the bootloader screen comes up) but release the power button.
The timing for this method is a little trickier, if you press the volume down rocker too late, it will boot normally (or safe mode), and too soon, and it just reduces the ringer volume and the phone stays on. But as long as you press and hold volume down the moment the screen goes black, it will work.

But also, I would still not recommend trying to boot into recovery until you have installed the TWRP recovery as mentioned previously on this thread, if you have not done so already. There is no CWM Touch Recovery for this phone, so I'm pretty certain you installed in improper recovery on the phone, and recovery will not function at all.
Alternatively, you can go into Goo Manager and select the "Reboot Recovery" option, which should get you into TWRP
Or from command prompt "adb reboot bootloader" so long as you open your prompt from your adb application folder.
Or alternatively skip the middle man: "adb reboot recovery"
I really think your problem lies with your button pressing -- follow instructions on the previous post and you should be home free.
Well I actually eventually managed it! I think the volume button was a bit stuck because it still takes a few tries to boot into bootloader, but eventually I managed it and am in the TWRP menu right now!
I did a little victory dance when it happened. Thanks again!
Update: I messed around with fastboot a bit more and managed to brick it entirely. It's stuck in a boot loop now -- it won't even power off -- and there's nothing I can do about it, so I just took it in to get it replaced.
Hey guys, I know this thread is very similar to others that have been posted, but I've already looked through them and haven't found anything that works for me yet.
My phone was already running rooted stock with TWRP for the recovery. I tried flashing CM10.2 but it was for the wrong model (I downloaded D802 but my phone is of course D801. Oops). Upon reboot, the LG splash screen appeared and then immediately went to a black screen saying
Code:
Fastboot mode started
udc_start()
When I attempt to turn the phone off it just reboots to that screen again. I am still able to use fastboot, and have tried wiping the phone and re-flashing TWRP. It doesn't throw any errors but I still can't actually boot into recovery. I can't use fastboot to flash a new ROM onto the phone though, since it doesn't like .zip archives apparently, and I can't find a .img file of a ROM anywhere.
When I try to use flashtool as described here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541087 it says the device is not connected (probably because it's not in download mode?).
Any help would be much appreciated. All I need to do is get into recovery, it shouldn't be this hard.
That's the same error I got a few days ago when I mis-flashed a new recovery (oops. and be careful when you use 'dd', because a typo can nuke your recovery). I'd get that error message if I tried to boot into recovery, but if I just let the phone boot, it would boot fine. It was easy to fix, but that was because I just used Terminal Emulator to re-flash recovery.
Your best bet might be to go back to stock. Try this thread.

I'm not in a boot loop, as I can power off and it will stay off. But I am stuck at the Fastboot mode started screen (I can't get download mode to come up). When I do try to get into download mode it flashes for a second, but then goes back to the fastboot mode screen.
I'm hoping to find an image that I can use the fastboot flash recovery command with to re-write my recovery partition.
Any suggestions on where to find this image file? Or am I going down the wrong path?
Thanks,
Joseph
Did you get it to work? I am in the same mode.
I'm stuck here as well. Looking for a fix
Did you guys find a fix? I need help with this...
similar thing here with me
any solution
i cant boot at all, not into download mode, nor recovery,
got this too because i was installing a note3 rom to my d800, acciodentally of coarse. i managed to boot to twrp by doing the power and volume down technique. and from twrp i restored my recent backup
To anyone still stuck in this situation (reboot loop, no recovery etc):
- Unplug the phone from the USB cable
- Hold down the power until the phone turns off
- Wait a couple of minutes with the phone off
- Now hold power and volume down buttons
- When LG logo appears - release power and volume down and hold them again
- When you see a white screen with "reset to default instructions" -- do what it says, meaning pressing the power button a couple of times
THAT should work.

All I did was hold power and volume down until the LG logo came on (not when it flashed for just a split 2nd) and then pressed and held power down again and it came to the white screen. Then I pressed power 3 times and got into recovery

Not sure if you've tried this. To power off fully, press and hold the volume down and power buttons. Do not let go of the buttons. The phone should turn off and the LG logo should appear. Continue holding until after the LG logo disappears. The phone should be fully off and won't turn back on at this point. If you don't see the LG logo, just keep the buttons pressed for about 10-15 seconds and you should be fully powered off by then. You should be able to enter download mode from here (press and hold volume up button while plugging in USB from computer). If you are able to enter download mode, then use the LG mobile support tool in my thread and follow the instructions. This should flash the latest stock system to your phone. If that doesn't work, I have a link to an alternate method for flashing the latest stock system on your phone. Hope this helps.

Hi,
My Oneplus One boots only to the CWM recovery. I noticed that my volume down button not working. So I restarted the phone, and now it only boots to CWM only.
In the recovery, the volume down button still doesn't work. It looks like the button may be stuck? and my guess is it's initiating the volume button down + power button to boot to CWM.
But I also tested the Button Test function in CWM, and the down button doesn't even register.
Is there any way to bypass this? I don't need the volume button down to work necessarily, but I need my phone to work.
I'd appreciate if there's any other way to bypass this, or maybe modify CWM file to change the recovery button combo.
If the button is stuck, then no amount of altering CWM is going to help because you'll never be able to boot into the OS with a stuck volume button. You're going to need to physically inspect and fix that volume button. In the meantime in order to have a functional recovery, ditch CWM and flash TWRP, the UI is all touchscreen so no replying on buttons, and it's leaps and bounds better than CWM anyway.
Transmitted via Bacon
Hey, Thanks for the reply.
I noticed a few more things, which makes me to believe that this is not a physical button problem.
First, whenever I charge the device, the device won't stay OFF. It constantly turns on automatically.
However, if I don't charge, the device will stay OFF.
Second, I can't even go to Bootloader. I tried "adb reboot bootloader" from the command prompt and the phone boots directly to CWM recovery.
Third, if the volume down button is stuck, wouldn't it be activated all the times? So when I'm in CWM, it'll constantly go down, and when I test on Button Test, it should register constantly.
But that's not happening. It's simply dead.
I'm going to try the RMA process, but meanwhile, I would be glad if someone has better idea with the new info I provided here.
Thanks
Im having the same issue did u get it fixed? plz help
Hi everyone. I have an honor 6x emui 5, android 7 Nougat, and I unlocked the bootloader but I have a problem (I followed this guide) after running the command C:\ adb> adb reboot recovery, it says:
"Your device has been unlocked and can not be trusted.
To learn more, visit:
...
your device is booting now "
but it stays stuck on this screen and does not let me access the twrp.
Do you have a solution?
I looked around for something but there is nothing concrete and clear. Thanks a lot.
Luigi (i'm not Mario's brother)
Hi Luigi (ouch, thought it was Mario's bro :silly: ), once you flash TWRP through fastboot, you boot directly to it in way to don't let Huawei Recovery overwrite it immediately after?
To do this, as you finish to flash the image you'll need to boot to TWRP using hardware keys (at least that's what i did to make it works). When you're still in fastboot mode and TWRP is flashed, keep pressed power button and wait until your phone's display becomes black.
Be ready to hold down power button and Vol+ together as soon as you feel the phone vibrating while restarting (pay many attention to this step because it's the trickiest part - power button should be released while phone it's on black screen, but you'll for have to re-hold down power button again shortly after! Basically just hold the two keys and release them immediately as you see the Honor logo) and if everything went well, you'll finally be in TWRP.
Lemme know if you'll be able to win the game or if you need a Power-Up mushroom.

That's weird. But until I'll know more about the steps you did, helping becomes harder. Tell me something because just flashing stuff to recovery partition could not mess system that much, unless that you've flashed a wrong TWRP or the correct TWRP but in a wrong partition.

Hello, I recently came on a pixel phone to build and use lineageOS on. Upon rebuilding, I believe I performed adb sync wrong the device and damaged system. After that, my adb keys became unauthorized and I am unable to access the bootloader menu(I press power and volume, but phone boots into Bootloop). I tried the steps to get to bootloader menu, but the phone doesn't power completely off, and when I press the power button it gives me the launch screen saying press power to pause/continue boot, not allowing me to go into bootloader
My bootloop goes like this: Bootloader integrity screen(bootloader unlocked, cannot be verified) --> Google loading screen --> Android recovery. This shows 2 options with the message, "Can't load Android system. Your data may be corrupt. If you continue to get this message, you may need to perform a factory data reset and erase all user data stored on this device". The two options are to try again or data reset.
I press try again, and the same bootloop ensues, sometimes getting to lineage loading logo, but then back to the same recovery error regardless. If I press the buttons(power and vol up), to go into recovery, it just shows an android with a warning sign above it, giving a message saying "Error!" on the bottom. My adb on the computer shows as unauthorized, so I don't know how I can fix this. Google has said the warranty is expired and cannot do anything to help. Ideas to fix? Thanks for help in advance!

I tried that, but whenever I press any button, the phone is never turning completely off unless it dies. Even after that, it goes to the screen showing the secure boot integrity(Press power to continue/stop boot)
How can I completely shut off the device and restart it? And if system is messed up, will that leave my bootloader intact(I'm assuming so as boot is a different partition?)

Does holding down the power button for 5-10 seconds turn it off? Or if you do that does it appear to turn off and then restart?
If that fails to turn it off, try just holding power and volume down for 5 seconds, and if the screen flashes (goes off and then on) let go of the power button but keep holding volume down and hopefully it goes into Fastboot.
That should work unless you have a dodgy power or volume button. The bootloader is completely separate to the boot partition, and the fact that it's doing anything at all suggests that it's still functioning.
Only other option I can think of is trying ADB commands when it's in recovery mode, e.g. adb reboot bootloader. However, if you have the stock recovery, that may not work.

Is ur bootloader unlocked? If so, use twrp to perform a full wipe and install from twrp as well. Of you can't access trwp, and are in a bootloop, do the same thing I did: let the phone lose all it's battery, so it's outta the loop, connect the phone to a charger, then hold power and volume down. This should get you into bootloader mode where you can then use fastboot to flash twrp.
