I have recently rooted my HTC One X+. I made a nandroid as well as an titanium backup. I tried to install this rom cynamogen 11.2 nightly
Unfortunately the installation went wrong due to the following reasons (MD5 file not found). Then I tried to restored my nandroid backup .
This operation was succesfull however after restarting the phone is still stucked on the splash screen (htc quietly brilliant).
I can still have access to bootloader as well as the TWRP 2.6 and restoring again and again !
So what i have to do !

I'm having the same problem. Somebody got a solution to this? Bootloader works, Recovery works, it just won't boot, and WinDroid HTC Tookit detects my device, but when I try to flash or run a command it says "A phone has bot been recognized by this toolkit". I unlocked my phone successfully, flashed a recovery, but when I click flash ROM and when I try to push a file I get that error.
EDIT:
I fixed my issue using Kubuntu. I'm sorry mate, if you use Windows I can't help you there. That's why I never really like Windows it's a retarded and flawed OS. Linux? Not so much. Get Linux and you can practically fix the issue yourself, if no one comes up with a solution for Windows.
Did you flash the boot.img ? ...
Thread cleaned,
Guys back on topic please. Do not flame other users on a public forum. If you have an issue with a users post, report it to us and we will deal with it.
Many thanks,

I tried to flash the latest venom kernel having already done this when i first got the phone back in 11/12 or 1/13 somewhere round there.
I hadnt read all the instructions and hadnt updated the loader or recovery. now its stuck on boot screen. I can get to recovery. unfortunately the only zip thats on the phone is the new (wrong one). The windroid sees a number and recognises that its in recovery but is unable to do anything with it, no adb side load push pull, nowt. I just happened to buy a micro usb host cable. I was wondering if there are any commands that I could put into terminal that would allow it to see a memory card or any help at all..

I extracted the "boot.img" file from the zip file of my desired ROM, then I open terminal, booted my phone into Fastboot and typed "fastboot flash boot boot.img".

Okay, seem like I can't communicate to my atrix via fastboot. How do I fix this? Flash via SPF? where is the right version of the software needed to do that (tried to find but only found outdated version and dead links)?
:EDIT:
found the software. RDF didn't work either. I tried installing the drivers but it didn't help. I never connected my atrix to the laptop or installed any of these files before today. (I had originally used a PC that I sold to unlock and root the phone)
::EDIT2:: Stupid me! I've been using a charging-only cable that does not pass along any data between the computer. I at least got my recovery back. Trying to flash roms and get it working. ::EDIT2::

Hi, everyone. As the title says, I cannot seem to enter recovery after getting a boot loop. I think I may have accidentally removed the battery when the phone was in recovery. Had CWM on it and was trying out Neutrino CM7 rom and had to flash the lite gapp (which was when the boot loop happened, hadn't gotten to the point of flashing the gapp when the boot loop started. When i go to fastboot and try to boot into recovery, all I get is a backlit blank screen.
Anyway, how do I fix this? my laptop just can't seem to recognize the atrix. I'm not sure where to go from here, particularly cause some of the links in some of the unbricking theads have broken links.

sorry to bring up an old thread, but i have this exact same problem from flashing neutrino and one of my mods when i got bootloop was lite gapps..
please could you help me fix my atrix?
Sorry I'm a noob at all of this. Successfully rooted my phone today thanks to Honsoon2000's excellent tutorial and toolkit. Then I went to install Android Revolution, which appeared to go successfully and then after I flashed the kernel the phone wouldn't load and just hangs at the quietly brilliant screen. I followed Honsoon's tutorial to the T (or so I thought) and everything went perfectly until right at the end when I flashed the kernel. I can make it back to the bootloader screen though it says "failed to load usb master mode". I can still make it into fastboot and recovery mode...tried recovery, and the process seemed to go sucessfully, but the phone still wouldn't load after...tried reinstalling ARHD-- it's still on the sd card and the install procedure still goes off without a hitch, but the phone still won't load. I've searched around and tried everything I can, to no avail. Any help would be muchly appreciated, and I apologize in advance for being a noob wasting people's time.
Edit: For example, when I follow the steps outlined in the FAQ it asks me to enter the command 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' , but when I do it says 'error: cannot load boot.img'.
Edit 2: So I put my boot.img file from Android Revolution into the data directory of the rooting toolkit and was able to complete the above flashboot command. I was also able to install the ROM off my SD card...however the phone still hangs on the Quietly Brilliant screen...I can't even power the phone down...whenever I try it just reboots...frustrating...really hoping someone can help me...cheers.
Before you begin, make sure that the drivers for the One X+ are installed.
Place the boot image being used on the computer's hard drive.
Boot in to recovery and flash the ROM.
When that is done, boot in to bootloader and connect the phone to the PC via a USB cable.
If the phone isn't in fastboot mode already, use the volume keys to highlight the word "fastboot", then press the power button.
Now, there should be text at the bootloader screen that says "Fastboot USB".
Finally, use the toolkit or command line and flash the kernel with the fastboot command.
This should successfully flash the ROM and the kernel. Make sure you full wipe before flashing a new ROM. If you can't seem to get the new ROM booting, the final choice is to relock the bootloader and run a RUU.
Which phone version you do own? International or AT&T / TELUS?
Did you flashed the correspondant boot.img? Did you cleared the cache? ( fastboot erase cache)
I'm trying to run an RUU but it keeps saying the battery isn't charged enough to flash anything...and this after it's been plugged in all day. Oh dear I think my phone might be done...really sucks :/
Also, it won't let me power the phone down-- every time i try it shuts the phone off briefly and then opens back up to the bootloader screen.
Fixed thanks to sarcasticphoenix. Cheers.
OK so I've tried 3 times to flash a new ROM onto my phone (Android Revolution twice and Eleganzia once) using Honsoon's toolkit...I've followed every instruction to the T as far as I can tell and all 3 times the process has gone perfectly right until the end when I flash the kernel...after that when I reboot the phone it just hangs at the Quietly Brilliant screen. I know how to relock the bootloader, flash the custom rom and get my phone back...but I really want to know what I'm doing wrong so I can install a custom ROM. I know I'm using the right ROM for my phone and am wondering what gives. Being driven crazy here...any ideas what's going wrong here would be helpful. BTW on the last attempt right after I finished and the phone hung I went into the boot loader and followed the instructions in the FAQ for fixing a bootloop...still nothing.
Edit: Solved my problem-- I managed to successfully load eleganzia...the only thing i did differently the last time was flash the kernel BEFORE installing the ROM off the SD card.

That's usually what I do first, flash the kernel and then install the zip via recovery
Sent from my HTC One X+ using xda premium
Which kernel are you referring too? Actually there is one or two kernels available but only for the International version, not the AT&T/TELUS which you seem to have.
I strongly suspect that your boot looping was because you didn't flash the boot.img file correctly or not at all. And you don't seem to install the good ROM version for your phone.
Elegancia has two ROM versions one for International and one for AT&T/TELUS users.
ARHD is for International users.
Please read Q12 of the FAQ.

Lol...yeah I don`t know how I missed that. I ended up getting elegancia successfully flashed and loaded so all is well. In retrospect this was a good experience because there`s nothing like having to get yourself unforked from a bad situation to gain an understanding of what`s going on. Cheers.
I have a couple questions and since I`m not allowed to post yet in the elegancia thread I'll try in this thread first:
1) An elegancia question: Is there a way (widget) to toggle data roaming on and off in this ROM?
2) Is there a way to tweak settings (transparent pull down, selection of launcher etc.) without wiping and reflashing the ROM?
3) What are people's favorite launcher for that ROM? I tried Atom but it was just a guess because I hadn't heard of any of them. I like it so far but am curious about the others.
Hello,
I, ve been reading xda for many years and had many android devices (recently SGSII for 2 years). I have quite an experience flashing roms, using recoveries etc... But this time on HTC One X+ (international) I really need XDA users help, thats why I decided to write this post.
I have a new unbranded HOX+, managed to unlock its bootloader, flash TWRP (for my version of HOX+) and from there flash superuser.zip. All worked ok (didn't produce any errors). Root is ok. But after a while, when I turned on the phone and tried to install an APK from PlayStore or read gmail - phone rebooted.
And it stills constanly do this whatever I try to do. Phone reboots whithout any change. I cannot relock bootloader, wipe, flash, install apps or copy files to phone. Every time I try to simpy use it, it just reboots with state reverted to the moment of first boot after rooting. If I leave it alone it still reboots, but after a while.
Adb and fastboot connections are available , but it looks like they are unable to commit any change. Stock rom with TWRP. I can boot to TWRP, but nothing there give a result. I can wipe, format, fix permissions, it all says operation went ok, but after a reboot, my system is unchanged.
Fastboot flashes of boot.img or recovery.img report success, but after reboot kernel / recovery aren't changed. Same with relocking bootloader, it reports that has been locked, and in bootloader mode i still see big, pink "UNLOCKED". So I also cannot flash RUU.
It seems I am unable to normally use my brand new smartphone and change anything.
Does anyone have a clue how to fix it?
Please help. I desperately need suggestions.
Thanks.

Thats my issue, my phone is magical, nothing seems to affect its state

Thanks for ideas, but it still does not work. Phone reverts its state. It's trully magical. Every time it reboots to the moment just after rooting. I have never seen anything like it before. Bootloader is always unlocked and memory chip state cannot be changed.
At least I haven't figure out how to do it yet
Anyone, please help!
EDIT:
A tried ADB sideload today, but after the file is sideloaded it can't be flashed - TWRP considers it corrupted and it vanishes after rebooting - AS EVERY CHANGE
I hope I didn't ruined my phone the first hour I got it, and XDA members could still help me. PLEASE
Hmm, it seems like everything fails to write to the emmc chip on your device, I would try to take it to a shop that does JTAG fixes, it could be a defective memory/emmc chip, sadly HTC will probably make you pay full price

A few weird things are happening on my phone and I'm quite concerned (even though it's actually working perfectly fine, which is the weirdest part of all!)
A little background: I recently wiped my phone and flashed the Sense 5 Android 4.3, stock rom. Now I'm trying to flash Viper 4.0.
First of all, as the title suggests, whenever I put a zip file on my phone it doesn't show in the TWRP recovery. I downloaded the correct one on the site (the newest one for the HTC EVO 4G LTE) so I don't think that's the problem. Also, I tried to push the file Viper zip onto my phone using this program called WinDroid Toolkit, and it claims it did but when I go into TWRP I cannot see the zip file at all, and if I try to use other folder names (such as the 'boot' folder I saw when I was in TWRP recovery) it says those folders don't exist!
Second of all, TWRP claims there is no OS installed on my phone but when I reboot my phone, it's fine! It just goes to the home screen as usual and it works perfectly fine... so I don't understand this warning but I couldn't shake the feeling that this was relevant to my issue.
I've been combing the forums looking for this type of problem, and I've tried multiple things but to no avail. I've read snippets about partition problems after formatting some phones but I'm not sure because there doesn't seem to be much information about it (at least from what I could find).

name it properly and fastboot flash it. after that mount your device to you pc and transfer a rom zip to storage.
Okay, well I flashed that TWRP and now I'm stuck at the white HTC screen. I can't even get into the bootloader, it just continually boots to the white HTC screen. Thoughts?

RUU or ViperRUU. TBH it sounds like the behavior of a dirty flash. ViperRUU is especially helpful in these situations.
Once done, use the TWRP recommended by Evolution_Freak. There were some major changes to the partitioning in the last few releases, make sure your recovery is appropriate for your ROM.

Ok it's not stuck anymore, I can get into recovery and bootloader, so I'm not in a panic anymore at least However, my computer is not detecting my phone, nor is VipeRUU. If I try to mount to the computer via TWRP, nothing comes up. BTW my recovery is 2.7.8.0b now. Still no OS, still gets stuck on the HTC screen until I boot to recovery or bootloader
Edit: Now the computer tries to install drivers for my phone whenever I plug it in. It pops up as HTC MTP Device, always fails to install, then has a warning in the device manager. So I uninstalled the drivers, uninstalled HTC Sync, reinstalled HTC Sync. Didn't help. This is beyond frustrating...
Edit 2: After scouring the internet someone said to lock the bootloader and that'll allow my PC to see my phone. Well, now i have a RELOCKED (that's what it says on top) bootloader and I'm no closer to the solution methinks. I'm ready to just throw this phone out the window.
Edit 3: I actually discovered ViperRUU has a way to bypass the initial screen so I can use it in bootloader. Great, except now it's stuck on "Flashing..." and has been for half an hour. I really might throw this phone out the window.
5th and final edit: VipeRUU just would not work at all, so I had to go back to an older stock RUU, which sucks but at least my phone is working now Thanks for your help guys!
I made a stupid mistake when unlocking my DNA and flashing a custom ROM (ViperDNA 4.1). I ran the rumrunner S-OFF which seemed to go without flaw. The mistake I made was checking to see if root installed which I'm assuming now it didn't. I installed Clockwork Recovery on it and booted into recovery and installed ViperDNA which gave errors. When I rebooted I was stuck at the boot splash. I tried an unbricking method posted on YouTube that required going into Fastboot USB and running an OEM Lock command and then using HTC's ROM update utility to reflash stock back to it which failed. I've rooted and flashed recovery to a lot of devices so I wouldn't consider myself to be a total noob but I'm at a loss here. Any help would be greatly appreciated! :fingers-crossed:
Black htc screen with triangles on each corner
Man I really need help. ...I tried to flash and something went wrong to where I erased the entire os and I continued to fix this issue because all I had access to was twrp(custom rom) and bootloader. then what was crazy is that it appeared that based on the fact that I was on 4.4.2 kit kat that I was unable to fix it. after researching I found a ruu that didn't have the boot image so I flashed the factory ruu with no boot image and my htc scrren with the status bar filled all the way up but it never moved off of that screen I assume because that ruu didn't have the boot image so I thought that common sense would be to at one of the boot images that I had to the zip file of the ruu without the boot image....that's when I made things worst and now im stuck on this htc screen with the four triangles...my pc wont detect my device and im in need of some serious help....can you help? can anybody help?
I believe i can help!!!

I had the same problem last night. I couldn't get fastboot to work properly and thought I was screwed. Here is what I did:
I downloaded a stock rooted rom and put it on a flash drive. I used my USB OTG cable and booted into recovery. I then mounted the external drive and flashed the stock 4.1 rom back on it and that cleared it up. I haven't re-tried to flash the ROM I tried, but I think my issue was an old recovery version.
Once you get back to stock, update or change your recovery to a new one and then try again would be my suggestion.
If you don't have an OTG cable, I'd suggest at a minimum order one for when it happens again
