Soft-Brick - HTC One X+

Hey Guys.
I have a big issue.
I installed a custom Kernel with the "Alli in One"-Tool then I rebooted. It stucked in the Boot Screen.
I can get to the Bootloader and to the cwm recovery. I tried to flash a Rom via sideload, but havent any idea how to do it...
Then I tried to run RUU, it says that it cant find a connected Phone...
What should i do?
EDIT: I tried to flash the original Kernel but the Tool says "device not found", too...

Is your phone the international 1X+?
To flash a ruu you have to download the correct ruu and relock your bootloader. If not the ruu will not install.

Yes its the international... I cant relock my bootloader because it says no device found...
and shouldnt the ruu tells another message when its noch relocked, than: device not found???

Sorry for doublepost, but:
New Problem. I can connect the Phone to another PC.
But now RUU tells me that the Phone is under 30% battery -.-
What now?
I left the phone the hole night on the Cable. The orange LED is on...

turn the phone off , then plug it into the charger for a hour or so ...

Doesnt work... I have now make a batch that reboot the phone and the phone is now at 3,975V. But the Error comes every time... i dont know why...

That is why I am not in favor of all in one tools, when something is happening or the tool doesn't get updated it can goes wild to recover.
Also for better support, please select one thread and stay in this thread, othrewise you will end up with many various responses, and you will definately end up more confused then you are at the moment.
I will Copy/Paste my previous answer I gave you in the other thread...

If your phone is not charging, it's probably because your Recovery is not the latest to date.

You should flash a Recovery known working on charging mode, the first releases were lacking this mode, but this is resolved now. Click on Frequently Asked Questions in my signature everything is there for you to find about HOX+ and their recoveries.

So give this a try before doing anything else. Flashing the latest recovery from TWRP.

So u can't get to recovery? Do as the previous post said and flash an official ruu, then if you want to, use the HTC unlock method, then s-off your phone (not 100% if you need both)
Flash recovery, then flash rom.
Back up first.
Did you try factory reset while your in bootloader

I tried factory reset in the bootloader, nothing happened. i can only get into the boot loader, i tried using a PC186IMG to update, that didnt work, and the stock ruu exe didnt work either, im really lost here guys

Is the phone S-OFF or HTC unlocked? This happened to me last night (infected superwipe crashed and I must have lost my recovery). I used fastboot on my PC to re-flash a recovery and then used the recovery to re-flash my ROM.
yeah, its all rooted and unlocked hboot 1.50

Mine would not boot into recovery. When I booted to fastboot and selected recovery, it would just restart into fastboot. So, I had to reflash recovery. Go to the TWRP 2.1 site for directions. I used the ADB and Fastboot method, but if the PG86IMG method works for you, it might be easier.
Follow the directions on their site and you hopefully will be able to boot into recovery. If you can, flash the ROM and you should be good to go.
EDIT: Just saw your post with screenshot, so you know how to use ADB and Fastboot. Recommend trying TWRP and see if that flashes successfully.
EDIT2: Doing further research, I found this thread. The OP had the exact same problem you are seeing with the Evo3d. Someone suggested using the 2.08 RUU and it worked for him. So, if the TWRP recovery does not work, you could try that.
Is the bootloader unlocked and do you know if there's a custom recovery installed if so you can download a ruu to your pc and put the EVO in fastboot and run the ruu check football in the dev section he has all the ruu's for EVO 3d check it out you can't go wrong there

Now it doesnt even turn on, it shows a charge light
How may copys of cwm do you have in your fastboot folder ??? Also if its showing a green light let it charge via ac for a few hours with the power off. Id recommend leaving it until the light turns green. It might take a while

i only have 1, and it doesnt charge, the light stays red, never green, i think it could partially be the battery

Even plugged in to AC, you can't get into Fastboot? I've been able to get into Fastboot even with the battery out as long as I was on AC.
witht he battery out and plugged into the ac, i cannot get into fastboot. the phone isnt recognized anymore by my computer and i can no longer get into fastboot. ive tried booting without the sd card, leaving the battery out for a set time, almost everything i can do, besides other cables. the only thing i can think is theres battery problem, but maybe something else. any ideas?

[Q] Rezound Stuck At Lock Screen

Hi,
I am new here and this is my first post so forgive me if starting a new thread for this topic was wrong but I found my own situation slightly different from the others here who had the same problem.
I have a gsm unlocked rezound and was trying to get rid of the unknown sim error message at lock screen. I followed the steps mentioned on this thread --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1882355. I rooted the phone, downloaded the apk. Deleted the .odex file and replaced the existing apk with the downloaded one and rebooted. Now, I am stuck at the lock screen with no icons. But for the other people who faced similiar issue, they were able to open the home screen. I can't. I can see pop ups for sms/mail. I get ring when a call comes in but I cant pick. I tried hard reset. Tried booting without sim/sd card. Still no luck. I tried connecting the phone to my pc but now my pc wont recognise the phone when its connected. I can see icon on top of the phone which says USB connected and I also see sync icon, but it will not go any further. I dont know how to get into the phone's menu now.
I may have bitten more than I can chew, silly me :crying:
If you guys can help me in any way, I would appreciate that a lot.
OS : 4.0.3 ICS Running HTC Sense 3.6.
A quick fix:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2017932
Flash my debloater, choosing the Sense option(will be brought to a widget removal screen if you don' use them all) & AOSP lockscreen. Disadvantage to that though, you will have to unlock to see the caller id when it rings.

Thank you for the quick response. I have downloaded the file. I know this sounds stupid but I am a real rookie. I don't know how to do the flashing or how to get to the AOSP lock screen. If you could guide me through the process or maybe give me a link where I can learn it myself, it would be great.
Essentially since you already have rooted, you will(should) also have a custom recovery (TWRP, AmonRa, CWM). Install it as you would a regular rom but without any wipes until after flash of the zip. Dependent on which recovery you will want to look up their FAQ/QnA on how to wipe dalvik/cache.
Once you get inside the script, you will see what I meant by "Choose Sense & AOSP Lockscreen".

Yes the phone was rooted, but I used a rooting software from google apps from the phone. After I downloaded that app, it rooted the phone and brought in an extra icon. I remember it as SU root something, but I didnt do it from the pc. So I dont have any recovery on the pc. I used to sync the phone with htc sync. Unfortunately, right now, my pc wont recognise the phone. I tried root explorer for android from pc, it wont recognise the device. HTC sync too will not. But my phone seems to know when a USB is connected, it brings the usb icon on top but thats about it. ((
Ok, best suggestion at this point is to follow the instruction in the OP for installing TWRP in the Rezound development section.

Thank you for the help buddy. I am glad you said its not. I dont know what I would have done if it had. This is my first android phone and I took it a week back. I was beginning to miss my iPhone . Unfortunately the link you provided wont help me because I have no way of restarting phone other than by removing battery. Even when in fastboot, the pc does not recognise the device even when device shows fastboot usb. I doubt if I can get past step 1 in that link.
I found that I am on Vigor H Boot 2.27.000 and Radio 2.22.10.0803r with S-ON. I tried to turn S-Off after reading and educating myself on android from this forum till now. But even to S-Off, I need to be able to enable USB in debug mode which I am not able to. Any suggestions ?
Device still not fixed
hi,
I took the phone to a couple of places to check if it can be fixed, No one was able to fix it thus far, Any other advice or suggestions to fix this would be great. Any admins/mods have something to add ? Please, I am desperate to fix this phone. Anyway of doing this ?
Have you tried flashing a different rom?
If he's S-on and locked, he can simply flash the latest RUU can't he(just to get the phone working again). From there someone can help him set up adb, and s-off.

From what they posted, somehow they don't have a custom recovery even though they are rooted?
Can you put a PH98IMG.zip file of a recovery (either Amon Ra or TWRP) on your SD card and flash it in hboot? Then flash a custom ROM the same way from recovery.
You can take the SD card out and mount it on your pc and use your pc to copy over the recovery PH98IMG.zip file.
And oh yeah, I see what Obaterista... was saying. You should be able to flash the latest RUU from hboot. Here's a link for it:

Yes I rooted from a tool I found on android market. Noob me. So I do not have a recovery. I had downloaded the PH98IMG.zip and put it in my sd card and tried. The recovery starts and then shows a red exclamation and then nothing happens.
I was just trying different pages for help. Someone has mentioned that I should add the PH98IMG.zip as just PH98IMG and I shud not add the .zip. Thats the only thing left to try. I will post what happens when I do that.

What you'll have to do is relock your boot loader, flash the RUU and then unlock again. From there you should be able to flash a recovery and flash a rom.

I am no expert to give u any suggestions but maybe if you could explain how it got bricked in the first place, someone might be able to give u a better solution mate.

Damn, not sure what happened...

So I tried overwriting cwm with twrp using a few methods i found online. The last one was this link here-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764398
I guess i didnt bother to see if it would work on our phone before screwing it up. Well anyway I ran that command and it basically wiped everything on my phone and Sense wont load up anymore.
I can boot into CWM still, and the phone boots up to the lock screen, but when i unlock it, it just goes to either a black screen or a white screen with green HTC written on it, then reboots.
What can i do to fix this? I have a backup saved on an external hard drive at home which i cant get to for another 10 hours -.-
But I tried running the "factory reset" option on CWM and it didnt help at all. Ideas?

U can only flash a Rom in custom recovery. And at this point u might not have the correct custom recovery on the device. Another thing is did u read the full instructions on how to run ruu? I wanna make sure that u don't run into any problems with this process

Is this an appropriate link for information on using the RUU?

Also, is this the correct RUU?

Edit: Also, I have twrp 2.4.4.0 running on my phone now.
If you have TWRP working now on your phone, simply sideload an AT&T/TELUS rom of your chaoice and you should be good to go after that. Don't forget to flash the correspondent boot.img. Otherwise, yes this is the RUU you need for your phone. (CINGULAR)

Hmm, sideloading didnt seem to work. I have a file called "venom" on my phone now, but its still doing the same thing, and i cant get ADB to run again (adb devices returns nothing) to copy over boot.img either : /
im gonna try a few more times and then run RUU i guess...
edit: i ran RUU and it ran into an error, saying that the RUU isnt for my phone (even though it is?)
Attempting to run again. Will update with what happens...
edit2: same thing happened. What should i do at this point?
Exact error is:
Error [155] unknown error
rom update utility cannot update your android phone
please get the correct rom update utility and try again
Edit3: ok, this thing is really ****in with me. I was able to get sideload to actually work this time, venom installed and is booting up. Hopefully it makes it to the home screen this time >.<
You have to relock the bootloader and then run the ruu. http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/sec....55.17_18.20.95.55L_release_290329_signed.exe is the correct ruu for the at&t version. After the ruu is finished then you unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery. Then flash away If you don't relock the bootloader the ruu will fail and not install.

OK, are you sure you charged your phone? The RUU needs at least 30% battery. Also, select fastboot before you run the RUU.
After you click next, it should say that the RUU has recognized your device and it will run on its own.

yes of course my friend the phone had 90% the charge but you say the update shuold be in mode bootloader?
RUU appears to work, but stuck on bootscreen logo
I also installed the OTA update, which did eventually get to 4.2.2, but after a few days went into bootloop. I applied the RUU with no luck. It appears to work, but then reboots to the htc screen and hangs.
I've also unlocked, installed custom recoveries. TWRP or CWM no touch for the HTC One X+ At&t. both report errors of unable to mount /anything. TWRP refuses to sideload or install a ROM after adb push (which I can get to work sometimes). CWM will install from sideload, but ROM install (Elegancia 6.2) stops at 13.07% and hangs.
I have tried all of the steps from multiple posts in these forums and what works for others seems never to work for my phone. What could the problem be? Permanently unable to see the partitions? Something corrupt in hboot 1.73? Since I can't access the phone to change the USB debugging setting (not sure if it was checked or not) and I can't change the fastboot mode in settings (last set to fastboot enabled), perhaps trying a factory reset caused the problem (one thread mentioned factory reset won't work if the settings say fastboot within the phone).
No clue, so any insight would be helpful. At this point, after weeks of trying to fix this phone, I'm nearly ready to give up. I'm stubborn, but now I suspect there's an unsolvable problem that I just don't have the expertise to see.

Thanks, attempting to do this, but I'm unable to unzip the stock roms in the 1.19 or 1.15 RUU to get that boot.img. I can unzip the 2.15 RUU rom just fine. Not sure what the problem is. I tried just running the earlier RUUs in the past, but they failed because it was the "wrong version" for my phone. Now I wonder if those failures were due to an invalid rom zip. Got these RUUs from AndroidRUU.
**edit: I cannot extract the roms (7z) for the earlier RUUs, only for 2.15. So I do not have access to the boot.img of the previous 4.1.1. Running the RUUs results in an "image error".

[Q] [Need Help] HTC One Max won't boot but can use USB then restarts

Ok I am having a weird issue with my phone now which seems to be totally different than all stories people have posted.
All people that have posted similar problems can't boot the phone and it gets stuck at the HTC screen when booting and they mentioned they can't use USB and some can't even charge the phone.
But for my case, after the HTC screen the mobile loads in the lock mode, showing only the clock and at the top left where the notifications are it is showing a warning mark but I can't read it cause phone is locked of course.
The USB connection works and luckily the USB debugging is enabled so I can have access to the phone through USB, but the problem is that I am stuck there, when I try to unlock the phone by pulling the window up, the HTC green loading screen comes instead and then it gets stuck there. but still the USB connection is working fine.
But after a short time which is 1 or 2 minutes, the phone restarts itself and then boots up again and does the same thing into an infinite loop until I shut it down.
I have the phone saying on boot loader Tampered, Unlocked but sadly its showing S-On
I have tried all the ways to make it S-OFF to try and lock the bootloader and remove the tamper so maybe it would help booting but I Can't get it to S-OFF.
The reasons are that my Hboot version is 2.46 and the android version is 4.3 so the only 2 working S-OFF programs for my versions are rumrunner and firewater.
For firewater I can't use it as it requires internet connection, but as I statted I Can't access the phone at all and it doesn't connect to wifi or even my SIM.
Rumrunner I have tried it, but the problem is when rumrunner gets to the "test 2" phase it takes long and the phone restarts itself before it manages to finish resulting in a CCCC error and ending the rumrunner program.
I remember what created the problem, I was trying to fix the fingerprint sensor and I RELOCKED the booter with oem through htcdev to see if it would help, after that when I went in bootloader it showed TAMPERED, RELOCKED and SECURITY WARNING, I got really scared so I unlocked the phone again with the unlock bin and it went back to normal and the security warning was gone, but from there the problem started.
I have tried wiping the cahce and all data and doing factory reset then I tried installing new ROMs but it didn't work for some reason.
I downloaded the kitkat rom and the jelly bean 4.2.2 ROM and tried both of them, it installs fine and everything is ok but the problem doesn't go and what is more weird is that even tho I installed the Jelly bean 4.2.2 ROM thorugh the Recovery screen, the adb still shows that my android version is 4.3 so I still can't use programs like revone or moonshine.
Please help me repair my phone
Does anyone know what can be wrong or what can I do?
I find it weird that even when installing ROMS this problem still occurs as if I never formatted the phone or installed a new ROM.
And still says Android 4.3 regards of what I do.

try booting into bootloader then flash the boot.img from there. it sounds as if your boot.img is not flashing from recovery.
fastboot flash boot boot.img
is the command to flash the boot loader from fastboot usb.

I did that and now it gets stuck at HTC without opening the phone at all and can't connect USB to it when its on anymore and now restarts the phone after it gets stuck at HTC after 20 seconds or something.
Now boot to recovery and flash the rom again.

Ok untill you actually get this booting correctly, stop just trying different roms. You are S-ON this means you will need to boot to bootloader flash the boot.img first then reboot to recovery and flash the rom that came with the boot.img. you should be doing this with a stock rom and boot.img for you specific device to make sure it works correctly.
If this does not work for you , you will need to run the RUU for you specific carrier. You will need to relock your phone in order to do the ruu
If you are just mix matching your **** it will never work correctly.

Ok I have a quick question.
After the download is finished, how will I copy the ZIP file to my phone since it doesn't boot anymore.
Can I do that from the bootloader with fastboot? or do I need to get SD card and a reader to copy the data to it then put it on the phone?

You need TWRP recovery to install the ROM and i hope you have it already. If not download TWRP and flash it.
In TWRP you have the option to mount your SD card and that should make your phone available as USB on your computer.

You may want to flash the stock sense 6 ROM which is available @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2776665

Ok I don't know what actually happened but here is how it is.
I had Clockwork mod recovery so I flashed the TWRP you told me from this forums and right after I did and tried to go into recovery, the phone turned OFF and wouldn't get on again, also it showed me a battery with question mark on it so I thought maybe battery went out and it won't charge, after few minutes I found it showing HTC logo screen then it went off and wouldn't boot or open bootloader again.
I tried to press Volume up + power and all of a sudden it booted into the last ROM I installed which was CM 10.1 Nightflies I think and now the phone is working again some how
Ok it turned out to be that the Question mark screen is just the back ground of the TWRP recovery and it needed time to load thats all cause I managed to get into recovery now.
But the weird thing is that installing the TWRP recovery ONLY I didn't install or flash anything else, fixed the phone and its working fine now.
Now its working super fine.
I managed to make it S-OFF with firewater (rumrunner didn't work for me) and I locked it and removed the Tampered flag.
Now the phone is working great and finger print sensor is working again.
Thanks everyone for the help

Also since I installed the CM 10.1 and it had a google app package with it, it seems the google app package wasn't installed successfully when the phone was still broken.
Do you know any good ROM I should install that will come with the google app package? or anyway to get the original ROM or RUU I don't know
I mean the original OS
