[Q] Rootboot bricked One X+ - HTC One X+

Hey guys my name is Mike!
I have just joined xda developers forum because I have been experiencing a problem in which I have no idea to solve.
Well today I tried rooting my One X+ by downloading a .bat file called rootboot V5 ( it can be found on google)
It said to only to use if your software version was 1.14 however my version was 1.15
Anyways I ended up bricking my phone when I clicked the .bat file and now my phone doesn't get past the boot screen.
I have unlocked my device already and I know because I can get to the bootloader screen and at the top it says "UNLOCKED"
Also, my device is no longer recognized by my computer.
I honestly have no idea what to do, if someone can please help me with this issue, I will be forever grateful.
Also, i have an AT&T model of the HTC One X+ and I only got it yesterday. :crying::crying:
I have rooted phones before but this is absolutely terrible.

have you tried using adb to get into recovery? have you tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994961

Install a ruu. And you get stock. Try the original. Ruu of your phone.

Noob
No, I have not tried getting into recovery by using adb. I have the file though I just don't know how to access it. (obviously through cmd)
Also, this may seem like a noob question but how do I download that tool you just referred me to? There is no link on the page for a download.
thanks

How?

Check the second post: http://d-h.st/users/hasoon2000/?fld_id=2808

His problem, is that his pc don't reconize the phone. He should install recovery or install ruu. But if the pc dont reconize the pc he can't. Try using the tool, installing recovery, look at the Info. And use only if is write for AT&T user, if you don't see that ask the tool Develope and keep calm. Good night. When you have flashed recovery try installing a Rom. Good luck.

when PC doesn't recognize the phone, then install Pdanet.
it included the correct driver

Here is the ATT ruu in my dropbox. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10203258/RU....55.17_18.20.95.55L_release_290329_signed.exe You must relock the bootloader before running this. And your pc must see the phone because this is ran from the PC. You have to be in fastboot/bootloader, relocked, then run this RUU. It will return the phone to stock. Also just because you cant see the phone as removable storage, doesnt mean the computer doesnt see it. The only time you see the phone as removable storage is when booted completely, otherwise you have to check the device manager.

I downloaded Pdanet and it said it had the correct driver however it requires me to turn on the debugging mode and of course I can't do that because I am stuck in at the Quietly Brilliant screen.
I am going to find out how to relock my phone and download that Ruu and see how that works I guess.

Basically got the same thing. Can get into TWRP recovery fine, can ADB boot.img. Have to adb sideload from PC, and I get the install fine.
But, phone never goes past HTC white screen upon booting, just sits for 10 minutes or longer.
Gonna try to RUU method after a relock myself.
Anybody has more ideas, let me know. It's like the SDCard is corrupt and can't be accessed but only through the sideload or in a good rom booted.
EDIT: did the RUU trick above, booted, SDCard is nor formatted and showing up properly in Windows, ROM booted...start over and try again.

So your computer doesn't recognize the device either?
Everytime I try to flash a different recovery it says waiting for device.... and just stays there because my computer doesn't recognize it.
If we do end up relocking it and flashing a Ruu, we are going to need our computers to recognize the device first so it is is pretty much pointless to relock it at the moment.
Do you have any other quicker way of communicating so maybe you and I can help each other out. Like a messenger or something?

How did you flash the rooted boot.img if your PC wont recognise the phone?

I finally fixed it
Well guys, after one hard long day of being in possession of a paperweight I finally fixed the issue.
It turns out I flashed the wrong rooter for my device.
I followed this guide to get through it!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2051032\
In the guide you pretty much flash a different ROM through adb sideloader. As long as adb recognizes your device, it doesn't matter about installing the correct drivers if they fail on your computer. Just follow the guide and put in the correct commands in cmd to download a new ROM. A list of the ROMS are attached to guide as well so you don't have to search for them.
THIS IS ONLY FOR AT&T AND TELUS MODELS BTW.
THANKS EVERYONE FOR THE HELP AND GOOD LUCK OTHERS WHO ARE STUCK IN THE BOOT SCREEN.

[Q] [q] how do I unbrick an amaze that wont go into recovery?

Backstory: I tried flashing android revolution for the amaze once, and it didn't work (error 1) left it alone for a bit after recovering it, went back to bulletproof and flashed faux .009 kernel, then decided to try again...
Well I'll try to make this brief, sorry if I'm posting in the wrong subforum but here goes, I tried going from bulletproof 2.5.0 to Android Revolution HD and didn't flash the superwipe .zip (lazy me). The install failed with the same error 1, only this time I can't boot back into recovery. Booting to bootloader works but when I tried going into recovery I see it pop up for maybe a fraction of a second before the phone reboots.
I've tried reflashing clockwork mod but no dice
any sort of tips you folks can give me to steer me in the right direction?

Not sure about the Amaze tbh, but if I had a failed flash on either of my HTC phones, I just re RUU'd.
D'oh! I forgot about that! Had to do that for my buddy's thunderbolt a few times. Lemme give that a shot and I'll report back

You need to superwipe the phone and flash the ROM. After the ROM flashes, you have to flash the kernel twice.

Same with you. You need to superwipe the phone and flash the ROM. After the ROM flashes, you have to flash the kernel twice.
Superwiping the phone removes all the data from the old ROM so you can install a fresh clean ROM.
If you want to install the RUU, you have to relock the bootloader first and then you can reflash the original RUU

To flash an official RUU, you must relock it. I've done so plenty of times lol
Sent From My HTC Amaze 4G via Someone's Room
If the phone wont go into recovery, you have to use ADB and wipe the cache partition for it to go into recovery again. This is apparently a bug with some of recoveries posted by other devs in the development forum. You need to use fastboot.exe to wipe the cache via adb
And if... If the superwipe doesn't work due to recovery version you have try to boot in to your Bootloader run one of hasoon's tool and choose different recovery.. it did happen to me the bootloop before due to the fact the old roms like mike's rom. he doesn't update his script to support the newer recoveries and it doesn't support X's recovery, it will give you an error installation.. just try different recoveries and for sure your problem will be solved..
just make sure boot in your bootloader/H-boot then run hasoon's tool and have enough battery just to make sure...

Thanks for the good info Sir but i my HTC Amaze is bootloader locked and S-ON but i cannot find a RUU for T-mobile to unbrick it. Will a Ruu such as this one work?
RUU_Ruby_Videotron_CA_1.46.1530.1_R2_Radio_1.09.550L.17DC_30.68.550L.09_release_227343_signed.exe
My HTC Amaze scans all the versions of the PH85IMG i place on the sd card but goes back to the menu when its down
any advice that could help i will appreciate!
There's a thread in the dev section that has about a dozen RUUs. I don't see how one can miss it.
Thanks for your reply but i was a little unsure and did not want to make my phone any worst than it already is.
Can you explain 1 thing thing for me please - RUU always you to flash the phone via the computer? where as PH85img.zip allows you to flash the phone via sdcard? I hope i am correct here.
but i want to know how can i flash the phone when its connected via HBoot usb cause my pc recognizes it as "Android Composite ADB Interface"
Currently this is what is on my lcd
LOCKED

HBOOT-1.93.0002

i have tried several PH85img.zip files but the phone just scans them and goes back to the menu.
Some help will be appreciated extremely.

I forgot to mention it connects to the pc but when i run command adb devices this is what i get

The latest ruu would be your best option, do not put the .zip part of the name since its already there, also a ruu may be an exe or zip file, since it is a complete stock file to restore the device, what would your carrier be to be exact? Just not up to reading through everything in this thread to see if you mentioned that piece of info, if its tmobile then the very first file in the stock ruu/ota thread would be the file you need.

thanks for your advice i managed to reboot the phone into recovery but heres whats strange to me the phone is in recovery with HTC on the screen thats it, the pc has recognized it as "MY HTC" in the device manager however, when i run the command adb devices this is what i get "SH218vp00163 offline". i ran the RUU file but i get error 170 usb connection.

Why are you using recovery exactly?
RUU's are to be flash via hboot, which is the very first screen you see when you go into the device's bootloader, in the case of exe files, you'll need to flash it via fastboot mode, which happens to be, correct me if I'm wrong, the very first or second option on the hboot menu.
yes you are correct cause i just tried it with an RUU from another carrier. i found out that the phone had 2.14.531 software installed. but the RUU i was using was 1.46 and so i got a signature error 132. now i need to find a way to remove the 2.14.531 software and replace it with a lower version. can you help me here

I googled HTC ONE X+ RUU. And was fruitless. Many are third party ROMs, and I'm not sure where to download the correct one. Even which to choose I'm not sure.
drivers installed?
There's a link on the TWRP thread you should have read before installing.
As Lloir says, do you have the HTC driver package installed? What recovery you have, should have no impact on how fastboot detects your device, just install drivers and flash a working kernel through fastboot.

Same problem
Hey i got the same problem and to start here i'am a noob in this. This is my first Android device and my first time trying to install a ROM. I used Hasoons all-in-one kit, and unlocking to bootloader went fine, so did recovery and Perm Root. I tried to install Android Revolution HD 5.1, so first I tried to install the other firmware that was needed for it, that is 1.16.401.6. I did something wrong there i guess and its stuck at the HTC start up logo. I tried to make sense of the posts above but i couldn't. My PC doesnt recognize the phone anymore but if I use a command from the all in one kit it does still respond and i can use the power and volume down button to go into bootloader. I tried some things there but really dont know what I'am doing. If someone can help me to get a ROM installed or go back to factory settings from the phone atleast make it work again would be much appreciated. I think i installed all the drivers because it worked before and it still does respond to flashboot in all-in-one kit. Sorry for being so noob. and thanks for the help.

Could someone please post an idiot proofed set of instructions to do this.
I have the relevent RUU.exe file, but simply running it doesn't work.
I'm assuming I need to replace the boot.img that I flashed with a stock one, but I don't know how to get it out of the .exe file.
My phone is bootloader unlocked, and rooted, and I can get into bootloader or clockwork recovery, but I can't get any new ROM onto the device via USB.
I just want to start again from stock...

To be clear, running the RUU .exe proceeds normally and tells me there's an unknown error and it that it can't update my phone.

Ok, now onto my question, I am trying to get CM-10 to load but it doesn't go any further than the load screen. No matter what I try. I have even tried switching to JellyBAM but all to no avail. Can someone offer me tips as to what I may have done or be doing wrong? Thanks in advance
[Q] trying to put CM10 on my rooted phone
Forgive me if I put this in the wrong group, but I feel this is probably the right one for it. I have Hboot 2.09. I have TWRP. I have S-on. I want to put CM10 with Gapps onto my phone but every way I have tried, CM10 just sits there and loops around, the longest being an hour. I figured some time was possible, but come on. Over on Google+, people are telling me to flash this and flash that, fastboot this or that. I have no idea what they are trying to say to me. I am loving learning all of this but I need a little more explanation than just flash something. I realize that flash has something to do with commands. I am running windows 8 if that helps on my laptop. My TWRP version is 2.5.0.0. I don't know if my phone has gone through the latest update or not. Thanks for any help you can give me!
You have to install the kernel separately from the ROM since you're S-on. Click the link in my sig for more info.
You most likely have the newest touch panel driver, so you can only use ROM's based off the latest OTA, software version 3.16. Your touchscreen won't work otherwise. You can gain S-off and downgrade your touch panel driver, at which point you can run AOSP ROM's like CM.

First of all you might be on the newest touch panel driver, and that's the first thing that gets you in trouble because aosp roms don't work with that, as of now, it might work later... Who knows... Secondly you need to flash the boot.img separately thru fastboot because your are s-on and on 2.09... To make your life easier try to get s-off either thru facepalm or dirty racun... That way you can flash any rom and also downgrade your touch panel driver to get aosp working on your phone... If you flash viper rom it has a senseless option so you can use nova and get stability and some sort of aosp look... Good luck!

Yes, S-off is the way to go if you want to run CM. Otherwise, try meanbean or viper or sharkie or any other sense based Rom. They should work fine.

I have tried to do facepalm. When I put the code in (I'm assuming it goes in the command window), I get messages like "adb not valid command". Even though my phone is most definitely rooted, says unlocked. Should I redownload android-sdk? Thanks again!

ADB commands must be issued when the phone is mounted as media share not as fastboot. Connect your phone as if you were transferring files between it and your pc.
Something new to try since you're on the latest OTA.

I do have it connected to the computer like that. Do you mean I have to go into TWRP and mount it that way? I tried it that way too. I downloaded and whole new android SDK to see if that is the problem. If not, I am going to factory reset my phone and start over. I can't imagine why I was able to root the phone, get it unlocked, but now I can't do anything else with it. Not even get adb commands to recognize it.

Message is for user tabidee tho if anyone else can help..koo..but I doubt u want tow
This is for tabidee hey I was reading ur stuff on xda developers and I have a question. If u can help if not its cool. Ok so i got my sprint evo and I went to try to root it. I went thru a process that with the steps combined with htcdev site got me to say unlock my bootloader. I used hoot 2.09 and I was supposed to flash this pimg175 zip to i guess install a recovery. Well that won't work at all... I cant get my s on switched to s off and so i am stuck with according to the hoot screen a tampered, unlocked with s on, unrooted phone. I am so confused with all the steps and files I had to download, rename and save to various folders that I gave up. With my phone at its current state what do I do next? I deleted all the files from the day I unlocked it but if you can explain to me... And explain like if I was a five year old cuz I'm that dumbfounded on this subject... But if u can maybe walk me thru the rest of the process or walk me thru a undoing of what I done so far. I'm lisa. My email is [email protected]
Check out the link below. It's a GUI for rooting and has everything you need to get your phone rooted. You'll need to install the recovery first then superuser, which will give you root.

[Q] Trouble rooting...LOTS of trouble.

Okay so I have been trying to root and I have tried everything I can find.
I have a fully upgraded phone so Revolutionary won't work for me out of the box and so I am trying to HTCDev unlock.
The problem though, is that I can't get Windows 8.1 to recognize my device. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers multiple times trying to get it to work. ADB works fine and can see the Thunderbolt but fastboot will not.
Nothing I have found has changed anything.
I also have a laptop with Ubuntu, would that work better?
You need to do it from a Windows 7 or lower computer. In order for the bolt to be seen in fastboot on Windows 8 it would require an update to the fastboot drivers on the phone which is very very unlikely.

Would trying it in Ubuntu work? Although almost all the tutorials seem to assume you are doing it through Windows.

Yes it should. Although, to unlock, s off and root ics on the bolt revolutionary isn't going to work straight up. You will have to downgrade the hboot version in order to be fully unlocked.

The tutorial I am following is leading me through unlocking with HTCdev, and installing SuperUser, would I still have to downgrade and use Revolutionary?
Sorry, complete newb.

Before you continue with the tutorials can you verify what android version you have for me?

If any of that helps.

That is exactly what I needed to know. You need to go to infectedrom.com and use the guide that is there to unlock and s off. The problem with what you posted earlier is that even if you unlock with HTCdev your hboot is going to prevent revolutionary from working. You have to downgrade your hboot in order to use Revolutionary.

Can you give me a direct link? Because the one I was using last night from InfectedROM was just walking me through the htcdev unlock.
Edit: I found it...seems it has me load different things from the other one I was following.
It's the Lt. Belspur post. But I finally got fastboot to work! So it's looking promising. Thank you very much.

I see where you're stuck now. You can do it in Ubuntu but you may get stuck at some point. I would definitely recommend doing it using Windows 7.

Wrong forum. You should ask in the Kindle fire forums because I haven't owned one or even handled one in person for that matter. It might would help if you were on newer than xp. Vista at least. Idk though

Edit: I missed your other post, but that is exactly the tutorial I've been following. I'm near the end...see the following problem. :/
Okay, so I'm almost to the end...I'm to the point of putting the .19 ROM on my sd card and loading it into hboot.
What happens is that it recognizes it, loads it, checks it, and then goes back to hboot.
The suggestions from the post I am following say to try reformatting the SD card, or a different image. I have done both. Any other suggestions?
And by the way, thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it.

Make sure you don't have the file named PG05IMG.zip.zip
Windows, by default, hides well known file extensions, so it may have gotten zip attached to it twice, one of which is not visible.
So remove the visible ".zip" extension and try again...

Done. Still the same result. Goes through loading the file, checking the file, and then just back to hboot.
I'm having the same issue. Does anyone have a GOOD copy of this Zip?

I bricked my htc one m9 on the at&t network . I was trying to download a new rom but got a bricked m9 . My bootloader is unlocked and is currently s-on. My computer no longer reads my sd card any more . I download the RUU_HIMA_UL_L51_SENSE70_ATT_MR_Cingular_US_2.11.502.18 but that is no longer a option . Every time i start the ruu its only goes so far as the the accept license option and once i accept it closes the program without even doing anything to my phone . I also tried flashing my twrp recovery again with no luck . I can no longer go into recovery mode at all, only shows a red triangle with a exclamation point thats turn on and off every few minutes . I tired to use this command but no luck.

not sure it will help, but maybe try the ATT L50? It's an older firmware. I thought I toasted my phone too but was able to recover with the L50 and then do OTA's to bring it back to speed. Sounds like you have nothing to lose at this point.

Do you still need help with this? Do you have fastboot working from download mode? You'll need HTC_fastboot.exe for the steps I'm going to share, but if fastboot works we can get htc_fastboot working. If fastboot doesn't even work, then you likely have windows driver issues that you need to get sorted first. Anyway, let me know if you still need help, first.
finally after 3 months of searching for a solution i finally was able to figure it out . thank you though
