I'm working on rooting my very first android phone for the very first time, and I've run across a snag. I've been following Luckythirteen's guide to rooting found here, but so far I've been unable to flash the TWRP recovery. Here's what I posted in the original thread:
Help! I've followed the steps to the T, but I'm struggling with installing the recovery. I've unlocked my bootloader, downloaded the TWRPrecovery.img, put it in the right folder. As soon as I boot into the bootloader, my phone seems to disconnect from the computer. I still have fastboot usb selected, but my device no longer shows up under adb devices. When I try to >fastboot flash recovery TWRPrecovery.img, I get an error "error: cannot load 'TWRPrecovery.img' : Unknown error"
I've got the international HOX+ and a computer running Win7. Any assistance in the matter would be super appreciated.
I hope I've provided enough information for someone to help me out here. I'm a complete Android beginner so this is all a little overwhelming. Thanks.
It is normal that your device does not show using "under adb devices" when in fastboot. You have to use "fastboot devices" instead. Try and see if your dive shows up there.
Also did you try redownloading the recovery.img and/or reinstallung HTC Drivers?

Hey, thanks for the reply. You're right, I did end up finding it under fastboot devices, but it still wouldn't work. Since then I've tried flashing a recovery using the all in one kit found in this, and adb shows that the flash was successful, however when I select recovery under the HBOOT menu, it just shuts off my phone, and when I power up again it reboots normally. Any idea what's up now?

Where exactly did you see that flashing process was successful? What about your HTC drivers? Are they up to date? What version of TWRP did you try to install?

The adb command window shows the flashing process just like the images in the initial tutorial. I've tried reinstalling the drivers a few times now, would it show me the device under fastboot devices if my drivers weren't working? I tried the latest TWRP, 2.5.0.0. Sorry for double-posting, I wasn't aware you were the same guy from the other thread!

did you see the following two things in the command window? "sending recovery.img" an then "done"?
and just to be sure: you picked the right recovery version for the One X+?

I must admit to my embarrassment that yes, it turns out I was trying to flash the wrong recovery (HOX instead of HOX+) and now I feel like an idiot, but I've finally gotten it to work, and I'm finally rooted! Thanks so much!

Hello, I rooted and used this method to root and install recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1690919
Then I installed Mean ROM and everything went smoothly.
I tried installing a kernel:
First, I tried this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1814037
and then I tried this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1800399
Both of them say they installed, but when I open Antutu CPU Master, I cannot overclock, I even went on the settings and about phone and it looked like the kernel was still the same.
Is there a specific method in which to flash the kernel?
Can someone help?
Thanks
I believe that you have to be S-OFF (preferred) or HTC Dev Unlocked to flash kernels successfully.
Also, if you took the latest OTA, you're now on a version of hboot, which doesn't allow flashing kernels.

If you are on the new H-boot, you cannot flash kernels from recovery. Simple as that.
You can fastboot flash them. Theres a thread about it in the general section. I'd suggest reading up on it

Can someone please provide me the link or a walkthrough on what to do?
I dont have anything installed on my computer at all and am completely new to this.
If your using TWRP 2.2.1 then maybe you can use the HTC Dumlock to flash kernels? I'm S-off so I don't have to use it.

Here are the instructions for flashing a kernel on the latest hboot:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1794867
You basically just need to flash the entire boot image instead of just the kernel. I know there is an an Enoch boot image available in the official thread, not sure about Evilz.
To do a fastboot flash you'll need the sdk installed. There is a good how to video here if you've never done it before:

Might be able to flash using Flash Imgae GUI.
Edit: Nvm. premo15's first link talks about using it.
I tried Flash Image GUI, but it messed up my rom, now I keep getting a Reboot Loop on the HTC Screen with the Developer Warning.
I then tried to clear all data and install the Mean Rom again, and when I do, it says that the ROM is installed in the Recovery, but When it boots, it goes back to the Reboot Loop.
Can someone Please Help me!

You have to extract the boot.img from mean rom and use fastboot to install it. premo15's first link also talked about using fastboot to install. If you want to install a custom kernel then just take the boot.img out of the fashable zip and use fastboot.
Okay,
I got ADB to Work, but whenever I do an ADB Command, such as adb reboot bootloader. It says Device Not Found, I installed the appropriate drivers and it also makes a device connected sound when I plug in the phone. When I open device manager, it shows all drivers installed.
Can someone help me with this issue, lol, I've been having so many issues with modding this phone....

You can type in adb devices to show connected devices. Make sure Android debugging is on in Settings -> Developer Options.
My Phone will not Boot at all. I cannot Enable ADB Debugging, I can go to the Bootloader Menu or the Recovery Menu.
I pressed fastboot and enabled fastboot-usb, and it made a connecting noise, but with adb, it will say phone not found

Try going into recovery from the bootloader and then try the "adb devices" command. I've noticed that I can't issue adb commands while in fastboot also...not sure why. If you can get it to display your device while in recovery, then you know your communication is good. Go back into fastboot and you should be able to do the "fastboot flash boot" command, but rebooting with the adb command will not work for some reason. After you flash the boot image, there should be an option to reboot on your phone that you can select with the volume keys.

Thanks! Got it!
when you flash a boot img, what folder does it go in? i have the same problem but i have a mac.
I have no idea where to go from here, I locked the bootloader, but the phone won't boot and if I insert a USB plug it won't stay in fastboot, it just says HTC and drivers fail, no device detected. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Problem solved in pm.
define "it won't stay in fastboot"... what does happen? you tried to boot to bootloader (vol- & power) right?
what did u do which resultat in a softbrick?

This happened to me as well I think. I have an AT&T version of the HTC One X+
I can't seem to install a rom. Loading hboot gives a failed to open usb master mode error. Using adb push D:\rom.zip /data/ succeeds, but the rom.zip is nowhere to be found in /data/. Using Hasoon's all in one toolkit abd sideloader function, or booting into recovery and typing adb sideloader D:\rom.zip fails, as it gives the adb instructions list.
This happened when I used Hasoon's all in one toolkit to unlock my bootloader, flash twrp, flash the blade boot.img and wipe my phone according to the instructions found in this tread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2027304).
Please help. Can't use my phone at all.

I just go the phone today and I have unlocked it and it all went well. I was looking at installing ViperDNA on to my phone. So I started to follow instructions in the Viper thread
1. I "tried" to install TWRP through the Goo method and after downloading the file it told me that recovery was no installed.
2. I rebooted in to bootloader and hit power button to enter fastboot then I scrolled down to where it says recovery and I hit power again. Phone displayed a message up the top that it was now entering recovery. The phone did not go to recovery it simply rebooted all the way back to my phones home screen.
I then though hmm well maybe I didn't install it properly so I follwed the instructions using Goo again but still nothing happened.
I noticed there was an alternative method to flash recovery by using ADB. I put the file in to the same directory as where my adb/fastbood reside and I booted in to fastboot again and in cmd prompt I entered "flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.4.0.0-dlx.img"
It seemed to flash and gave me a response which I can't remember now but it said OK!.
I then proceeded to try and enter recovery again but this time it has sent my phone in to a bootloop. It will not pass the Droid splashscreen. I can however still access bootloader mode.
I also noticed now in my Bootloader above where it says Unlocked it also says Tampered?
Phone doesn't seem to be recognised by ADB anymore neither. adb devices returns with a blank space
I'm a long time Samsung user so usually in this situation I would use Odin and flash a stock firmware but I don't know the process with HTC
I don't have a backup because I hadn't got to this stage yet!
Any advice as to what to do now

if you can still get the phone into fastboot mode then you should be fine.. when in fastboot mode the command "adb devices" will not return any entries.. when in fastboot you should use the command
fastboot devices
and see if your phone shows up there.. also the command for flashing a recovery in fastboot is:
fastboot flash recovery "your recovery filename.img" without the quotations though..
so the exact command would be the fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.4.0.0-dlx.img if that is what the recovery file on your computer is named.
then hit enter it should say sending etc...
I always then do the command
fastboot reboot-bootloader then the phone will reboot into the fastboot screen, then manually select recovery and see that it worked that time.

flashing the modules for the kernel is always a good idea just flash that after you flash your ROM..

lol. Now Aroma is being a pain in the ass. It won't let me click Next to install. haha
EDIT* Maybe because of the smaller TWRP or maybe not but I had to try again and then click next but about 2" higher than where it says it :S
I am not a huge fan of aroma... i had issues when i tried to flash my DNA the first time.. that is something that you just have to keep trying unfortunately it seems... i have seen where people had to aroma freeze on them multiple times before finally completing the flash... some tips i have seen is keep the phone flat... also keep it plugged in.. I can't vouch for any of these being actual fixes but hey "it's only weird if it doesn't work"
Do you know the load time on a ROMs first boot after flash?
The ROM said it was installing and at about 8% the screen went all grey and then rebooted in to the HTC splash screen and hasn't changed for about 15 minutes. Tried it twice
EDIT* Would only flash using CWM

I have an AT&T HOX+, and I recently unsuccessfully tried to root it.
After failing, I relocked it without enabling USB Debugging. Now I can't connect it to my PC and it's just stuck in fastboot.
I also can't boot into recovery. The only options are hboot, reboot, reboot bootloader, and power down.
Is there anyway to fix it without going into an at&t store?

There are Tutorials in the HTC One X+ General forum, where everything you need to know is written down, so i won't try to explain it all in here...
These should not be that hard to find and after reading you should know how to get your device working again.

Try booting in fastboot mode and see - I guess it will connect,
Although I am not an expert, but I think USB Debugging comes into play after ROM is booted...
Also, as per your signature, your kernel is:
Kernel: hXORe v3.4

Are you sure you have the correct kernel - just for a check install the kernel that came with the ROM. AFAIK the ATT kernel is experimental...

If you just check a thread I have started I had the same problem. Here is what I did:
While on Fastboot - used hasoon's tool kit to re unlock the boot loader. It failed a few times but then it ultimately succeeded. You need to be on either hboot or fastboot to unlock the bootloader not in recovery....
BTW have you actually tried the toolkit?
Hope you have the unlock_code.bin in root of the toolkit...

I am assuming you have installed the hTC drivers. Using hTC Sync or other method?
Is it showing in device manager?
What is your OS?
If it is showing as unknown device then you may try Koush's universal ADB driver.
Another thing does "fastboot devices" shows you anything?
It is really weird, because I did these steps and it just worked for me....

I'll look into all of those and get back to you tomorrow about my results
Don't use toolkits they cause more issues than they solve.... Connect your device to your PC, open a command prompt, navigate to your fastboot folder and type in "fastboot devices" If it gives you back your devices S/N, your good to go. If not reinstall HTC Sync manager.... I don't see why you can't enable usb debugging on a bootloader locked device though....They have nothing to do with each other afaik....

I was trying to flash a rom and I did wrong.
The phone got stuck on the white HTC screen.
I'm trying to get it back, the problem is that when I connect to the pc is not recognized. I installed SDK Tools, adb, drivers and all.
All In One Toolkit run and try to flash the boot.img but it says "error: device not found"
I run adb commands but it says the same thing, "error: device not found"
I tried it with Venom Flasher but I can not solve.
I uninstalled and went back to install the drivers, but I still have the same result, I run out of options.
When I turn the phone enters fastboot, I can access the recovery, but the phone at this time does not rom, dead.
By mistake I went to lock the bootloader but today I unlock it again with the All In One Toolkit and the bin file, so do not understand why if the file could flasher to unlock the bootloader again, but when trying to flash the boot.img or execute commands like: adb devices, adb reboot bootloader throws the error "device not found"
I appreciate it can help me ...

ADB commands are only recognized in recovery or when system is running. re-unlock your bootloader first. you can reboot into bootloader by pressing and holding power & volume-down button. navigate using volume buttons and enter fastboot by pressing power button. Now you can flash boot.img with "fastboot flash boot boot.img" or using any One X+ compatible toolkit. If it doesn't work, try installing latest HTC sync on your computer to get latest drivers. you can uninstall htc sync later again, the drivers will remain installed.

Yeah, try doing that. I locked boot loader again but still had no results. What I did right now was "fastboot flash boot boot.img" says ok, but just gets stuck on the white screen.

Correct, as said in the post "Note: For KK 4.4.x necessary CWM recovery from Lloir's thread."

Did you do a wipe in before flashing the new rom?
Anyway you can copy a new rom.zip onto your phone using "adb sideload rom.zip" or "adb push rom.zip /data/media/0" while you're in recovery. Then do a full wipe first, flash rom and don't forget to flash boot.img.

Thanks for your help...
I cant flash zip file, its says "error: device not found".
I put the zip file in adb folder, then "adb sideload filename.zip"
Do not know if I'm doing well, I turn on the phone in recovery mode, then with the volume keys I go to "install zip" option then "install zip from sideload" then run the command I get the error.

ADB may take some time to recognize your device in recovery. Try "adb devices" first and if it isn't listed as in recovery or sideload, wait some minutes and try again. Shouldn't take more than 5 minutes though.
But you have installed latest drivers?

Your phone needs to be in recognized as in sideload mode in order to use adb sideload. when recognized in recovery, try "adb push rom.zip /data/media/0", this will copy your rom onto your phones internal memory. Depending on rom size, this may take some minutes and there's no progress bar/display, so give it some time, 10 min should be enough.
