A long while back I used the HTC official unlock ( cant remember what it is called ), I installed clockword recovery (5.8.1.5) and rooted but didnt mess with my rom beyond that.
Today my daughter was playing a game and the phone suddenly rebooted (saw it happen) it reboots to recovery. I tried clearing the cache and factory reset still wouldnt boot. Decided to try a ROM to see if that would fix it (did CG ROM Jelly Bean) no change. Not really sure what my next step should be.
It does say "E:unknown misc partition fs_type "ext4"" at the bottom of the clockwork recovery page.
still working on this to no avail, not really sure what to try next. I am worried the tablet may have died proper like.
Halp please!

Sorry for the long reply, I spent a TON of time figuring out how to do all this stuff for the version of stuff I beleive I have. At any rate the problem I am consistantly encoutnering is that I cant get to hboot at all. I also cant find advice on how I might repair hboot from recovery. I do have adb access from recovery and can do adb reboot-bootloader but it just thinks for a bit and comes back to recovery. I also tried many times doing the vol-down + power button to get to hboot.
So what is the next step if you cant get to hboot?
so have you done something like
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash zimage zImage
fastboot flash zimage zImage
fastboot reboot

Yes, when I do adb reboot-bootloader it just reboots into recovery again. fastboot gives the <waiting for device>. I also tried copying the rom.zip from the ruu to an sd card and then using recovery to flash to it. It starts to try then ends with "Installation Aborted".
Not sure if there is a small easy to flash to rom that I could try, even if it wouldnt have much in the way of function. Not sure if this whole thing implies my flash is partially dead or something.
Thanks
Anyone have any ideas for me? I don't really see other posts covering this problem.

Only thing I can think of is grabbing a proper RUU executable, there might be a thread in the view dev area that links to some, plugging in your view and try running that. You'll loose root and all but it may bring it back to life

Thanks for the idea Gersto but I cant get to fastboot so I cant use an RUU (Unless there is something I dont know). I experimented a bit trying to get the errors about the misc partition and ext4 to go away but nothing I did to that stuff seemed to persist. I do have root and can access it from adb shell.
Not sure if it is the culprit but if anyone knows how to fix the problem wit my misc partition I am all earsl.
Thanks

I did my research on how to install ROMS with a locked S On and Kernels, but just got even more confused about the process. I am coming from an Evo 4g CDMA.
I have H BOOT 1.5 unlocked S ON. My back up was lost. I tried to flash something like the newest MIUI using TWRP 1.1. w/e. I can't get past the boot screen for MIUI. As I was reading up on the forums, it seemed to me that you had to use a program called Flash Image GUI to get a kernel going on a ROM. Though, here is where I was confused. If a ROM has a kernel in it and I flash the ROM, does the Kernel part of that flash not get set up as well?
Would I need to flash the rom like normal from the SD Card then use something separate to flash a Kernel? If so, I am kinda boned. I can't get into the phone, just the recovery and can't get that program installed on the phone Trying to flash up Xplode now to see if maybe I just got a bad download.
If these questions were answered, please forgive me, I did try to find the answers, but as I read up more and more, it was getting to be more and more confusing to my personal issue at hand.
Thanks for the help!!
If you grab the kernel from your Miui zip, it's in the zips root called boot.img
Put that into your folder with your fastboot exe
Boot into bootloader the same as when you flashed the CWM
Use fastboot command... fastboot flash boot boot.img
this will flash the kernel and you should be able to boot up properly
Oh, well that is the problem. I had someone else flash TWRP for me. Guess I need to find out more on how to flash up that to get the kernel going. This S On thing is a massive PITA, lol. Guess once I get the phone up and going and I can use that program, things will be way easier

I see. i skipped the how to part since i thought you had alrady flashed the CMW your self, it's fairly easy.
you need..
1) to install the evo 3d usb drivers.. filename HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe .sorry i don't have a link, i got them off these forums somewhere
2) you need the fastboot.exe , again search google/these forums
then shut down your phone
pull battery out, then back in
hold down volume- (minus) and then hold the power button as well, only let go once in the bootloader, choose the fastboot option then insert usb cable to phone->pc .. you should see fastboot-usb message come up on your phone
then you can type out that fastboot command in the previous post from a dos command prompt, from the directory with your fastboot exe and boot.img
It's easier to put rom you want on the SD card make sure debug is on.
Adb reboot bootloader . Now
Fastboot boot recovery.img now wipe and flash rom you are good to go man. Works flawless .

Sorry about posting in the wrong area.
What I did, which can help out other 3D noobs is this:
Since I just unlocked and have no back up, my kernel was still stock
Downloading a stock rom and moving it to my phone via comp, twrp recovery mode>> USB Toggle allows you to connect to PC! Put the rom on the main part of the SD card and just flash like normal.
Here you should be able to boot up like normal again.
Let me say, Flash Image GUI is a noobs friend till you can learn to use adb more.
I was told you can put a Rom on your card and just flash allowing the kernel to flash as well. I have not had success with this with HBoot 1.5 S On.
Flash Image GUI:
Download the rom you want, Aosp to Sense is fine.
Open Flash GUI and choose the Browse option.
Locate your rom on your card and choose it.
The app will give you a message saying the rom is big yada yada, say yes.
Wait a few moments as it finds the kernel. Once it does, choose flash Image.
Choose reboot recovery and flash the exact rom you picked with the App. Reboot and win.
This is just what I, a noob, have found to work.
I have NOT been able to just flash any rom on the SD Card and have it work. Flash Image UI has NOT been able to get Virus' Rom to load
A's I find more noob friendly tips I can report.
Thanks everyone else for the input! I won't lie, I came from an Evo 4g and am totally lazy as I am used to S Off and just flashing away. S On, I hate you. ADB, I fear you. Flash Image GUI, I want to marry you!
CDMA 3D, I wish we had more AOSP lol
Hope this helps out some people.

ADB is pretty simple to flash with lol
All you do is keep a copy of the recovery.img you are using in your adb folder...
You hold shift down right click on the folder that adb is in platform tools folder is where it's at say open cmd prompt to it. That is the fast painless method
Make sure you have a rom on your sd card.... Also that debug is turned on...
Plug phone in hook to computer...
ADB:
adb reboot bootloader
now:
fastboot boot recovery.img takes you into recovery...
Now wipe don't wipe SD card...
Flash rom your set works on virus roms and any other rom 0 issues
Also Flash GUI works for everyone nothing wrong with it....

You can not flash some ROMS through ADB/Fastboot with s-on, it just doesn't work no matter which way you go about it. Flashing a recovery is easy but that was not the OP's problem. The "noob" way that the OP suggested is the only way to get roms with custom boot.img in the zip to stick. I just installed CM9 and ADB/fastboot was of no use. Getting into recovery is easy but will not provide results unless you have used FlashImageGUI.apk first on a working ROM.
Nether CWM nor TWRP work to flash such ROM's with the right boot.img. You must use FlashImageGUI.apk!

Dah da dat ta ta! (Swoops in with my 2 cents)
See the Guide/Flashing Notes in my signature for a walkthru for flashing roms, recoveries, etc. All up to date. Choose your method: fastboot & recovery or flashimage & recovery.
Note: TWRP 2.0 with Dumlock is a workaround to avoid using fastboot (pc). FlashImage is not a requirement, its also a workaround vs fastboot.

There is the HBOOT downgrade. I have ZERO linux experience whatsoever and thought the process was very easy. I know it says to 'brick' the phone, but it is honestly not that scary. I have done two of these already both being successful on the first attempt. The live cd by closeone actually takes care of almost everything, except for actually doing the brick. Trust me being on 1.40 s-off is much much nicer.
so, my HTC Evo 3D is bricked, I think. I was bored last night at work and I was moving some apps to my sd card. One of the apps I moved was Plume for Twitter. When I launched Plume, it told me I had to restart my phone for the notification settings to be applied. So I did. It booted up fine but when I turned my screen off when I was done with work, the screen wouldn't unlock. There was just the notification bar and my wallpaper. I couldn't hit any buttons, or slide the notification bar down. I tried calling my phone from work but it just said missed call from work. It boots into bootloader and adb is working. I am downloading PG86IMG.zip now and I'm going to try to flash that unless someone else has a better idea what to do. Can someone please help?
Thanks in advance!

I tried restoring from a backup. I tried factory resetting also. And now its just bringing me to the white HTC screen and not getting any farther. I'm on HBOOT 1.5 and I've been using HTCDumLock to flash roms. Should I just do it the old fashioned way and flash the PG.zip using fastboot?
Have you tried flashing the rom then reboot to recovery via fastboot then flash the kernel. Or flashing the boot partition???

I tried that. But now when I try to copy over the PG.zip file it says I don't have enough space on my SD card so I deleted some things that I don't need and its still saying it. I tried flashing the rom I had before it, and all it says is unable to unzip.
Back up your sd. The format it and restore the default partitions. Then try it.

Flash the Boot.img
you might have a "softbrick" on your hands.. An easy way to fix it is to extract the Boot.img from your current custom rom and then flash it using fastboot like so:
Be sure to cd/ to the location of the boot.img
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
then Fastboot boot boot.img to restart
Somewhere along the lines you might have accidentaly tried to boot the wrong rom on the wrong boot.img.

yeah a buddy of mine said I soft bricked it. I'm not quite sure what that means but he's going to look at it and hope to get it back in working order so I don't have to use this awful phone (samsung moment)
Last night I was able to unlock my bootloader on my rezound. And I installed Amon Ra recovery. I did a nand backup before I made any other choices from there. But I don't know if I was perm rooted. But I installed su and busybox. well I went ahead and installed Rom Manager just to start out with instead of using amon recovery.
Through rom manager I had to flash clockwork mod. did that. so I thought i was ready to go with flashing a ROM. well I downloaded a ROM through my phone. but it wasn't on my sd card. so i pulled the notifications down on my phone and just clicked the downloaded ROM and it said what would you like to do with it? I clicked the rom manager option. cleared dalvik and cache n all. Everything said installed successfully. well it just stayed on the htc screen FOREVER. so i pulled battery and tried to recover my backup. well now that i have clockwork as recovery. my backup isn't on my phone. I can't even use clockwork now. I can't get my phone to boot at all. I don't think my phone is bricked cuz I can get into the bootloader menu. But i can't get my phone to boot back up at all whatsoever
So I was either not rooted like I thought I was or something. I can't even factory reset through bootloader. it just takes me back to clockwork mod and everytime i click an option through cwm it goes blank. every single option. I need my amon recovery back somehow so i can restore my backup....please somebody help me out. I hope its not bricked. Thanks

Your firmware is probably still GB, Newt's is for ICS. There is a patch allows you to use his ROM on a GB firmware base. So, over on MikMIk possibly, is this patch you need. Flash it in recovery, just like you would a ROM.
Here found a helpful link, look at PRDOG's post. He rocks... Depending on which release of Newt's ROM you are on, he also has a RLS 3.2.1 which is also a patch. Sorry it is a little confusing. But stick with it. Lots of people to help you. You don't need to flash the 3.2.1 patch, just the GB one.

Hello All,
I posted this on the post for Android Revolution and seem to have run out of interest. This was my post.
Hello,
I messed up and flashed the boot file before I installed the rom file in the internal storage. Now the phone wont boot at all. Can you help me fix this please.
I've tried to search for answers but cant find anything.
I can get into fastboot mode and into CMW mode. So I am able to enter sideload mode but cant get the phone to take the sideload.
I'm afraid I may have formatted the storage too.
Can anyone help me please?
Steve the noob.
Right now I am completely bricked. Tried everything, reinstalled SDK, tried sideloading in a couple of ways, stuck in bootloader or CMW. Try to load and sticks on white HTC page.
PLEASE HELP. I followed all of the directions except for loading the boot first.
Is there a factory reset like the old Oden system that could save me?
Can you get into fastboot?
If so you need to then flash the boot.img via fastboot.
Type fastboot flash (name of file).img in command prompt and you should be good to go!
which boot image?
Looks like you took the wrong version for your phone. You have an AT&T / Telus phone. You can not take an International ROM for your phone.
Only AT&T / TELUS ROMs will work on your phone.
I forgot, you can not bricked your phone since our HTC ONE X+ are S-ON, you just missed something to have it going.

Which CWM are you on? Lloir or the other guys? VERIFY YOU HAVE THE PROPER RECOVERY INSTALLED. IF YOU ARE ON THE AT&T MODEL USE THE AT&T RECOVERY
You can run an RUU (verify proper carrier and model) while at the fastboot screen, or install TWRP and try to sideload using that from the SDK PLATFORM TOOLS FOLDER. You mentioned you have the SDK installed but I need to stress DO NOT USE THE TOOL KIT IT IS WORTHLESS. Make sure you have the official HTC drivers installed that come with HTC SYNC using generic drivers from the tool kit usually yields worthless resutls.
I cant get the rom on the phone. It's completely stuck in a boot loop. Only thing I can do is go into bootloader or CWM. I need to sideload a rom. But it wont let me.

Read my previous post I gave you instructions. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39261003&postcount=5
OK...
Let's start with the correct Recovery for your phone, download link -> Click me!
N.B. -> Rename this file like this -> TWRP2recovery
Put this file in your platform-tools of SDK folder.
Put your phone in bootloader (fastboot USB)
Type this : fasboot devices (Enter... you should have your serial in return)
Then type : fastboot flash recovery TWRP2recovery.img (Enter)
Again type : fastboot erase cache (Enter)
Unplug your USB cable and hit Power button one time
Select Recovery
Hit Power button one time to reboot in Recovery
Try to sideload an ATT&T / TELUS ROM ONLY
Go for Elegancia AT&T/TELUS ROM for this time. (Choose one of your choice in the Download section here)
What are the results?
Well, thanks for all your efforts, but it's a lost cause. I tried the last posters suggestions and it wont let me flash the recovery at all. It's done. I have insurance so I'm just going to smash it and file a claim. I give up. I wont do that again.
Which error you have when you try to flash the recovery? Is your phone recognized at least when you are typing : adb devices ?

Have you tried just running the RUU? People say it takes a few times. Your phone is not bricked if you can get into fastboot.

Which error you have when you try to flash the recovery? Is your phone recognized at least when you are typing : adb devices ?

I got this when I typed "fastboot devices",,,
Then when I typed fastboot recovery to load the file, it showed this
just tried a dif file path and got this
Oh, by the way, my bootloader has been relocked. Can I fix this through bootloader?
First let's install your SDK folder correctly then you will see, it will work flawlessly.
Have a look at my screenshot, see how mine look simple compare to yours.... Yes, I have two devices plugged.
Install your SDK tool like it is explained in this thread.
The version numbers are different but the installation stay the same.
EDIT : What is your computer OS? I will point you to the good htc drivers.

PS I've tried downloading the ALL IN ONE TOOLKIT and sideloading a rom it asks if the device is in recovery, it is TWRP recovery, but then says error device not found.
Please any help would be much appreciated.

can you adb into the phone from your PC ?
you can try to push a rom to /data/media
boot to recovery wait about 10 seconds and the open cmd on you pc and run adb
adb push Rom.zip /data/media
wait for it to copy (it takes a while)
reboot phone back to recovery
your rom.zip should be on the phone now
Flash
your home free
Does twrp run? You should still be able to install the Rom as long as your recovery program still works.

twrp is messed up he most likely formatted the system and the /sdcard (rom) it happens all the time
Yea I did the same thing the first time I rooted my one X lol I was scared my phone was ruined! To the OP relax your phone will be alright just follow instructions better in the future.

Here is the instructions i posted that got another guy up and running hope it helps you out
This worked in CWM anyway
Boot into recovery
from the pc (c:\fastboot) do the adb push filename.zip /data/media
wait for it to copy
then on the phone reboot recovery your rom should be in the root of the sdcard waiting for you to flash
I just tested it and it worked perfect ( of coarse I didn't format my sdcard so ymmv )

Ok first, thank you for taking the time to help me with this.
I am a little bit of a noob when it comes to this stuff. I know just enough to get into trouble apparently. lol
I have my phone plugged in and have adb up, and am in fastboot. It doesn't seem to recognize my phone. I type adb devices, it just says list of devices and doesn't list any.
It won't let me push anything to my phone. I'm probably doing something wrong.

I've tried all of this with no luck at all. Main version is 1.26.502.10...tried installing Nandroid backups that other posted and keep getting an error when extracting the zip. I've adb pushed ROMs to the sdcard multiple times. They load for installation, everthing seems to work, but once I reboot, it hangs on the HTC screen.
I too deleted the system files so I can't get back in the phone. Tried CWM and TWRP and tried over and over to get it to work with no luck.
Tried installing CleanROM, Stock, and one other...no dice.
Any ideas? I've been at this for two days now.
download the 1.26.12 RUU that designgears posted in general

Tried that but my version is 1.26.502.10 and that one is .12
It wouldn't work because of that.

yes it would.
it works just fine
you have to lock your bootloader first is all.
the RUU is an unreleased leak, but yes it will install as long as your CID is CWS_001. An AT&T device.
