[Q] HTC Desire 816 Help? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all,
This may be the wrong forum to post on, but I have a somewhat big problem. I have an HTC Desire 816w that came from China. I were hoping by rooting it, it would remove the restriction of Google and I could actually USE the phone. So I unlocked the bootloader, rooted the phone, flashed CWM, then flashed a ROM (KingSense DS). However, when I flashed the ROM, I was given the option to wipe the phone. I had 4 GB of bloatware so why the heck not. However this made the phone weird and it now only boots to fastboot. I tried flashing the DS ROM again but to no avail. We then tried other ROMs but they also did not work (would force close and abort installation).
So this is my question: how would I be able to fix this? I had an idea of finding the stock recovery.img and boot.img so it would at least boot into stock but I have no idea where to find them. I unfortunately couldn't back up the stock roms so I don't have that. Any solutions? Would anyone have a stock recovery.img and boot.img that they're willing to share? Is this phone still "repairable"? Please help! :S

[Q] Help Please

hello there, im sure someone can help me out, i have worked with many android phones before and done alot of reading on the ONE X+. i have a one x+ on telus if it matters, and i have it rooted with no problems, every time i try to load a rom i get stuck in a boot loop, i also cant seem to access any storage through recovery or side load. i have tried different roms, kernals, recoverys, same thing, i have also tried going back to stock ruu and then trying agian with no luck.i have been using the " all in one root kit v2.3" (NOOB tool). its been a while since ive played with android so im sure im just doing something stupid but ive tried about 10 times now, any help would be great.

Did you used international roms instead of AT&T/Telus roms?

1) make sure you are on a compatible roms: international version won't work for AT&T
2) make sure you have your bootloader unlocked
3) make sure you flash the right kernel via fastboot usb or kernel flasher, because s-on devices (htc one x+ is one of them) cannot flash kernel via recovery
I will try to help but I don't know what your phone condition now, what recovery you are on, what roms/kernel you last flashed

(HOX+ int) Unable to flash system, recovery or relock bootloader

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.

Hey, .
Sadly, recovery does not change. I am able to flash it through fastboot, it reports succes, but after reboot I still see my old TWRP.
Thats my issue, my phone is magical, nothing seems to affect its state
Thanks for your advice!

one more attempt, try doing it on another PC, and that the Toolkit is in C:. And that the folder has a short name, such as C :/ Toolkit or something, someone else help us, is an impressive smarthphone.

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

Hi, I think also it's is the explanation for HOX+ radio lacks, permanent screen locks after the sleep, etc... fails in my AT&T's unlocked HOX+, defective emmc or emmc firmware.. It´s possible?

[Q] boot loop after stock restore

hello everyone,
noob here as this is my first post
i'm sorry for the book in advance, i just wanna give everyone the whole story.
i'm having problems with my at&t htc one m8. i've rooted it and installed twrp and supersu on it no problem(first time rooting) and made several nandroid backups. i made a stock back up and flashed to viperone rom played around on that for a while.
couple days later i still wanted to try other roms and explore what other roms had to offer, so i installed cyanogen mod 11, had some fun on that one. so i made a back up of this as well.
i then decided to try the google play edition [gpe] for the m8.(am i a flashaholic yet?) after this i wanted to compare the stock rom to the gpe rom sense i haven't used it in about a week.
heres where the problem begins:
so i tired to restore my stock backup and it gets past the at&t boot animation then goes to the htc one boot animation and freezes (or boot loops i guess). i figured maybe its loading or something but after 20 mins i got worried so i plugged it into my computer and rebooted it using the command line and command adb reboot boot loader. (thankfully it worked and i remembered this from the root video i used to guide me through the rooting process) it does this every time i restore that backup. so now i have three different roms backup and they work fine i can flash to and from any of them but the stock rom.
i did some digging and found that on cwm it might not backup the the boot.img or something about a partition?(figured it might does this on twrp as well) i know nothing of either. this is my only stock rom backup. i've looked for a stock rom to flash and can't find one so i'm hoping you guys can help me fix this backup so i can get stock sense 6 back.
as i said i'm a noob if someone could tell me what to do step by step to fix this or show me my mistake so i don't do this again. if it's fixable or give me a different solution or thread to get this problem fixed
i have sd card on the way if that matters. i am running low on memory on my internal sd.
any help will be greatly appreciated again sorry for the book.
i am assuming that you flashed the GPE RUU, if so here is how to get back to stock from that. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2721435
Thanks is there a way I can just flash between all of them or does the ruu stop me from doing so?
Until there is a RUU.zip for Stock unlocked or dev edition, it is a bit more complicated going from one to another

Need ROM for HTC Desire 626s (T-Mobile)

So, to start, I rooted my phone, unlocked the bootloader, and flashed TWRP for the recovery.
I did all of this so that I could prepare it for CyanogenMod. I made the mistake of not backing up my data (I seriously, seriously regret this decision now) and wiped my phone so that I could install Cyanogen, only to find out that there is no Cyanogen build available at this time for my phone model. I've looked all over google and bing and couldn't find one.
So I tried to find a stock rom to install. Screw it, I can debloat it myself if it's rooted, right? Nope. No stock roms. Sorry. Tried the RUU, and the one for my carrier says it's not the correct one, the metroPCS one stops halfway through the flashing process before it decides to tell me the same thing, and I didn't try the sprint RUU. This is driving me up the wall and all I want is a single flashable rom to work with so that I have some kind of functioning phone again.
Any help is appreciated.
Update: This thread helped me restore my phone to factory state, and I was able to re-reoot from there.
