i have posted many posts on the forums and have emailed you for help but you never seem to reply sir ,and you seem to be the only person who can actually help me if you can pls sir as i cannot get my wallaby working like i said ,,all i get is when i plug in the usb sync lead on my pc in device manager i get HTC USB SYNC ,,what ever flashing software i use it wont work it says please connect via active sync but i cant as i have no rom on pda also i have no bootloader to flash via sd card ,,and fix bootloader tool wont work either as it wont connect with pda or communicate
i no the device can be recovered because its still working just needs the software rom and bootloader back so if you can show me how to flash my pda back to life i would be very grateful ,i have checked continously on the entire forum for my problem and i coudnt find nothing related to it
I agree
Tends to be a common problem and I've been coming to the site for months looking for help and have yet to find it. Any help would be appreicated.
Hello pdaman.
Sorry, that you didn´t get an answer from me, but do not know any other solution than mentioned here in the forum. I think the device is stuck, because you don´t have access to the bootloader to flash a new ROM via SD, and you can´t repair your bootloader, because the device do not came up , so that you get an connection via ActiveSync.
I personaly do not know any other solution to reflash the device....
Stefan
maybe this for the bold and brave
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WallabyJTAG
i dont get it ,,,,if the device shows HTC usb sync in device manager and the device is working fine just needs bootloader and rom back how can you say i,m stuck ,,,i spoke to many pda engineers all quoting me around 30pounds sterling to fix it so it is possible to do so oh welll it seems 1000's of people using this forum hasnt come across htc usb sync before? when i check on google htc usb sync i see that the treo handset uses similar features theres even special rom flash software that communicates with my pda right now but again there for treo and i contacted the software developers but no reply
i am trying my best to find a cure for this ,,,i,m so glad my blueangel device isnt as crude as the wallaby as i destroyed the bootloader many times on my blueangel and recovered it in seconds but the wallaby is so delicate
i will keep everyone posted if i find a way of flashing a wallaby device while theres no bootloader and os on it and it shows HTC usb sync in device manager and if theres anyone out there reading this please please share it with us as i,m sure i am not the only one who has this problem
know that ur frustrated but if the Stefan said that he honestly dont know the solution than why blame him bcoz "device is stuck", he helped to a tons of people about software problems with wallaby and Im sure that he would help you too if he know the solution
Dear All,
I am a newbie on this so please bear with me. I did take the time out to read up on some of the basics before I posted this but I am not familiar with most of the acronyms.
I bought a HTC One X+ with no power button. The seller claimed he bought the phone as is and didnt know if the phone worked or not.
When I received it, I placed a power button and put it on charge. Within minutes the phone loaded with the 3 logo (UK) but to the bootloader screen. I tried all the various options from Hboot, Restart, Restart with Bootloader and Power Down. When I choose HBoot, I get the following error:
sd checking....
Failed to open USB master mode
(preload) Failed to open USB master mode
loading image....
Failed to open USB master mode
Plug off device.
When I try to power down, it simply restarts. When I choose Recovery, nothing works. I just keep coming back to the bootloader screen no matter what I do.
I read the following thread but I didnt understand some of it, eg RUU. I assume this is the type of ROM that is flashed to the phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1940194
I have tried connecting phone to the laptop to see if I can see the drive in windows explorer. Laptop recognises the HTC phone in System Device (loaded HTC Sync Manager from HTC website) but it wont recognise the phone's drive. When I try to use the CMD box, i get same issue. It cannot find the phone's storage, therefore I cannot write anything to the phone.
It seems like whoever tried to flash this phone which is on the 3 network made a hash of it, as from reading the above thread, it looks like 3 networked HTC One X cannot be unlocked.
Therefore is it possible to get this phone back to working mode as it was, given the issues I am having.
Any help will be mightily appreciated! :good:
Thanks

you got those "errors" because you have the usb cable plugged in too soon.

I have tried it with cable in early and late. It is the same issue
I just realised it is NOT on the 3 network, that is my HTC One X! Cant believe I got that mixed up!
Actually I dont know what network this is on as I cant get out of bootloader!
I have been informed by a friend that the phone needs to be s-off before it can be flashed. How can I do this?
this device DOES NOT need s-off so your friend is talking out of his ass,
the guide to flash ruu's is in the general section
also there is NO WAY to s-off the X+

I keep getting signature errors everytime I try a different UK network RUU! I dont even know what this signature error means!
Also how do I know which RUU to use as there are so many different types. Any help will be gladly appreciated
I have followed Hasoon's directions using his utility tool. I have managed to unlock the phone but cant get beyond that.
Every single viable HTC One X+ RUU I use simply doesnt work. I cant access the USB drive to my phone (prob because the person previously never ticked USB Debugging when he/she attempted to root the phone) so cannot transfer the RUU files to my phone.
I have tried to run the original RUU for this phone but it keeps giving me an error. I have no idea what to do next. I have read all the posts on the General Forum for instructions on ADB, rooting, unlocking, RUUs etc.
I would truly be thankful if I can get some assistance here please.

where in the UK are you? if you are close to me i can sort it out for you. Also you need to relock the bootloader put the device into bootloader > fastboot usb and THEN run the correct RUU

I am in Manchester. I have relocked the bootloader but now the phone wont charge. I have seen a post here how to fix that, so I will try that.
I have done the above but I simply do not know what the correct RUU is. How do I even know which is right? I have tried around 10 so far and none have worked.
Fixed It!!!!
I cant believe it! I fixed it!!!!
I accidentally came up on a post here on this forum looking for something else and a member discussed the same problem as me. The reason why he was getting the signature error etc because he had the wrong recovery loaded.
I therefore loaded the latest TWRP version from here (link provided from General Settings) - http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/enrc2b
I didnt use Hasoon's recovery as TWRP is user friendly. I relocked the phone, loaded the correct RUU and it worked!
So to summarise this is how I fixed my phone
1. Downloaded Hasoon2000's toolkit from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2066390
2. Rooted the phone
3. Unlocked the phone
4. Flashed latest recovery file using his toolkit (Your Own Recovery)
5. Loaded the correct RUU - RUU_ENRC2B_U_JB_45_HTC_Europe_1.17.401.1_Radio_3.1204.168.32_release_299688_signed.exe from http://androidfiles.org/ruu/?dir=ENRC2B
NB to know which RUU to use, go into bootloader and you will see the RUU details at the top part of the screen - in my case it was Radio_3.1204.168.32. Also when I tried to run any RUU.exe file it told me the version I had was 1.17.401.1. I searched for it on the android files and found the above RUU to match my RUU. This I guess is the stock RUU.
As a newbie, it can be very tough trying to understand this, but this forum is just awesome!! I am an accountant by profession, and I cant believe I figured how to fix an HTC One X+ by going through this forum! The FAQ has it all - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2179337
Thanks to everyone who gave their advice here!
I am now going to try performance tweaks next as I am feeling confident

Hi guys,
my girlfriends (non-rooted, vanilla) HTC Desire X did an OTA update and has been dead ever since. Power on + Volume Down does nothing, removing battery for days didn't change anything and in an USB scan it only appears as the dreaded QHSUSB_DLOAD and never as an USB mass storage device (which is what fastboot etc. tries to look for).
So, I guess the OTA update broke the boot-loader or similar in such a way so the Qualcomm chipset doesn't recognize it anymore, and fallbacks into the USB recovery mode.. and hence I really want to find a way to restore at least as much of the bootloader that I can access the eMMC userdata partition because there are photos I want to recover for her.
I know you can access the bootblock etc. through a soldered JTAG port and the RIFF box or similar, but the phone has warranty and I don't really want to void it by soldering away (in case maybe the phone actually was hardware broken). Also, since the photos on the phone are valuable I don't want to give it to the HTC service guys without at least trying something else first (whom I talked to and they say they would just swap the PCB and have to send in the old one to HTC, so I can't even get it afterwards to do the JTAG surgery on it...)
Any ideas? Is it possible at all to reflash the bootloader through the QHSUSB_DLOAD recovery protocol for these devices?
thanks

Hi, actually she just woke up, saw the phone asking about the upgrade, pressed yes and when she looked at it again later it was dead. So she didn't do anything after, and I think it was the stock android as shipped with the phone when she got it, must have been more than 6 months ago.
I did some research and it seems like the RIFF Box guys made a tool for their RIFF Manager software that can actually set up their DCC Loader monitor without the JTAG port, just using USB and the qualcomm communication (QHSUSB_DLOAD). After that, it's possible to both read and write to the flash areas I guess.
Problem is, they only support up to snapdragon S2 and the Desire X is an S4 (MSM8225 is the chipset as far as I know). Didn't seem that they had any plans to support this anytime soon.
Do you know if the internal flash in the Desire X is an eMMC or a NAND-flash by the way? The one that keeps the userdata and kernel.

I'm pretty sure it's emmc... If she didn't press any button combos and just long pressed the power button, she should be fine. But in this case, QHSUSB_DLOAD wasn't called by the user, so that update screwed up something that the system fell back to it...

Hi there,
I have a rooted HTC one X + phone on O2. On Sunday night I received a notification that there was a new version of android available.
I installed this and re booted the phone and now all I get is the "HTC Quietly Brilliant" screen (or whatever it says)
So, I can get into the fast boot screen by holding down the vol - button and power button and I have downloaded all the kit I need to be able to flash and then install a new ROM. Only thing that is stopping me at the moment is the fact that I cannot put the phone into USB bugging mode in developer options as the phone will not boot?
I am stuck here guys so if anyone can help me that would be most appreciated.
Danny
PS. I needed to root the phone as I have a Pioneer app radio in the van and it was a requirement for this.
The update did'nt "brick" your phone. You did by flashing an OTA while rooted
Anyway back on topic.... USB debugging has nothing to do with your issue and you can flash roms and use fastboot, even adb from recovery regardless if it is enabled or not, so you can go ahead and flash that rom

Thanks mate. I just seem to bump into it wherever I go "put phone into USB Debugging"
I will have another go at this.:good:
USB debugging is an android feature/security measure. When your in fastboot/recovery, android isn't even booted so its irrelevant

Hi. Wonder if you can help here. I flashed twrp recovery which came up ok. Since then the phone has gone flat and now it won't charge?
Should I just bin it?
Cheers

keep it plugged into the wall for 24hours before you "bin" it, if you do decide to bin it, i'll take it off of your hands can use the spares for my x+
Bit of a result on this one. Took it back to o2 and they have repaired it and sent it back to my house. Might even be a new one when I get rhyme and check at the weekend. The 12 month warranty ran out next mont.
Thanks for your replies
Hi people from the comunity of xda-developers, I have recently got a new HTC ONE from AT&T and my problem is that, I CANT Unlock the bootloader of my htc one. I have found threads about how people can unlock their bootloader but they are from the phones who where in hboot 1.44.000 ... Is there any way i can unlock the bootloader?. I went to HTCDEV.COM and i tried to unlock it, but when i go to command prompt and continue with the "fastboot oem etc"it gets stuck in waiting device and it doesnt do anything. I Have installed and uninstalled the drivers a couple of times and nothing... Im using Windows 8 and i dont know if there is a problem using it. BTW when i go to Device Manager and look for my phone i see that in portable devices it says android 1.0 with a triangle i tried to update the drivers but got no luck either.
If any of you people can help me i would be very happy... ohh and Thanks in Advance

Download HTC sync manager, install it.
Go to control panel, uninstall programs and remove HTC sync manager but don't uninstall HTC drivers.
connect device to the computer and let the PC install drivers. Once done remove HTC from PC, place HTC on boot loader mode and select fastboot and connect device to computer, let the computer install android 1.0
Once installed on command prompt go to where you have the SDK and type fastboot devices, if the HTC one shows up you are good to go

My HTC One will be arriving in a few days, I'll let you know if I'm able to proceed further past this point and get you past it. In the meantime, I'm gonna scan the other threads for different methods and get back to you if I find anything solid.
