[Q] stuck on htc quietly brilliant screen - HTC One X

Hello everyone, I made a mistake (I am a big noob) and I don't know how to fix it.
I wanted to have fresh phone (real factory reset) to back-up and start over, so in recovery mode (interim one from paul) I wiped data, cache partition and I also formated cache,data, sdcard and system.
Now, I am stuck on htc quietly brilliant screen, I have access to hboot, recovery etc. I have been looking for a solution for 2 days without succes, I am sad.
Can someone help please ? thanks guys.

You wiped the system so there is no android on there!
Eirher download a new Rom and flash or relock bootloader and use ruu

The part you did wrong: It's true that you wipe (dalvik) cache and data before flashing a custom rom. That will perform a factory reset. Wiping system means deleting android itself, as stated before. That's what you did wrong.
Now, we can't know why you wanted to start all over again, but assuming you already flashed a custom recovery, you wanted to install a custom rom. Just go ahaed and do so, your problem will be fixed.

thanks, but I can't because this custom recovery doesn't allow me to mount usb and i have no rom on my sd card

That's not actually a problem. I assume you aleady have the android SDK set up, if you don't, please use the search function or google. try the following command while in the platform-tools folder:
adb push path/to/custom/rom /sdcard
or for linux/mac:
sudo ./adb push path/to/custom/rom /sdcard
This will copy the file to the root of your sdcard, so you can flash it. Good luck!
P.S. there's a thanks button, too

That wont work as ADB does not work on any of the custom recoveries at the moment. Im stuck in the same situtation at the mo and as phone is branded cant get the RUU to reflash so just playing the waiting game until either ADB/USB mount available in recovery or S-Off available.

Same problem here! I unfortunatly erase everything from my one x and i can't restore anything!! How can i solve it?? My device is unlocked but stay in s-on mode! Why? From fastboot i can't flash anything! Help!!

Hello folks, problem solved by following leejames instructions :
flash stock recovery
relock bootloader
use ruu
I'm so happy. Thanks.

Mee too!! Thanks a lot!! I'm very very very very very very very very very very very very very very happy!!
1 flash stock recovery
2 relock bootloader
3 use ruu
It works fine!!

I do exactly the same thing , but half way through the RUU process it gives me an error saying i need the correct RUU. anyone can help ?

All you have to do is grab an RUU, run it. now on your pc search for %temp%in there locate ROM.zip. Extract the boot.img and system.img. and push them thru fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
Code:
adb reboot

i did that , but i get this error:
C:\ADB>fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img

Botched my old recovery, and can't flash a new one...help?

I've been playing around with some of the JB ROMs, and was using Goo Manager and TWRP to do it. Then, because I'm an idiot, I decided I wanted to upgrade TWRP to 2.3.3.0 (I think I was running 2.3.1.0).
That's when I ran into the "TWRP doesn't always install properly" problem. I've now tried updating TWRP from within Goo Manager more than 5 times, but it's not working.
So I decided I'd install the new recovery via the FASTBOOT method.
I have HBOOT 0.92. I have ADB and FASTBOOT loaded on my laptop. (I'm pretty sure this is the way I originally installed CWM 5.0.2.0 when I first rooted my phone ages ago.)
When I boot the phone into the bootloader and choose FASTBOOT, then plug it into my laptop, I get the "FASTBOOT USB" indication that it's connected, so that's good.
However, when I open a terminal window on my laptop, navigate to my miniadb folder (where the fastboot.exe and recovery images are located), and try to flash the recovery image, I see the green bar in the upper right corner of the phone, but on the laptop I get this:
c:\miniadb>fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.3.3.0-inc.img
sending 'recovery' (3642 KB)... OKAY [ 11.235s]
writing 'recovery'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 11.268s
So then I decided to give up on TWRP and go back to CWM, but there's no joy there, either:
c:\miniadb>fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-inc.img
sending 'recovery' (3064 KB)... OKAY [ 12.370s]
writing 'recovery'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 12.402s
What causes the "FAILED (remote: not allowed)" response? Clearly I'm sending the data to the phone, but the phone's rejecting it for some reason.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a foolproof way to get a recovery (either CWM or TWRP--at this point, I'm not picky!) back on my phone?
Thanks!
MC
Check the last two pages of the tarp thread for a twrp hboot PB31IMG.ZIP or see my direct link below.

For what it's worth, I think you need to upgrade HBOOT to 1.02 or 1.07 and unlock it through htcdev to be able to use the fastboot flash commands. But the flashable zip for TWRP should fix it for you too and that way is easier and just as reliable.

[Q] i think i briked my Htc one x

Hi
Last year i was using Android Revolution custom firmware, after which i went back to stock, i stayed with stock about 1 year , then yesterday tried install Android Revolution HD, but i think i mess it up big time because i am stuck in boot screen . I tried looking for a RUU but apparently my phone is using a newer version of RUU which i can not find. I spent 1 day looking for solutions but none helped, now i am stuck. Please help. Sorry for my English , Thank You

okey here we go, first flash this recovery (for working touch in recovery)
https://www.dropbox.com/s/yqzlpqo8illa53j/Philz recovery 5.15.9.img
then you flash the boot.img from the rom.zip (copy it again to the fastboot folder and make sure its the correct one)
then enter the recovery and perform a full wipe
- factory reset (full)
- wipe cache partition
- ADVANCED - wipe dalvik cache
- MOUNTS & STORAGE - format cache, data, system
then install the rom.zip and reboot

You are trying to flash TWRP with a locked bootloader and it obviously fails. Download the full official ROM from OnePlus site and the corresponding recovery also. First flash the recovery and reboot to bootloader and then flash the OS and reboot. If you are successful, you can enable Developer Options and from there OEM unlock and USB debugging. Thereafter you can try TWRP, Magisk and other ROMs.
Hmm, I thought he said he can enter bootloader and recovery. If so, reboot the phone in stock recovery and flash full Rom from local update.

NO.
So that is where you are committing a mistake. You have not been reading the posts carefully.
All of us are asking you to download the STOCK recovery compatible with the version of the stock ROM chosen by you and to FLASH THE STOCK RECOVERY FIRST, NOT TWRP.
Because TWRP can't be flashed with a locked bootloader whereas the stock recovery can be flashed from bootloader. Then go for the ROM, sideload it using adb and boot.

Can't flash TWRP - remote failure (SOLVED)

I hope you can help me, since I've looked everywhere but can only find people with similar but not the exact same problem.

Are you sure you flashed the right image? And that your bootloader is unlocked?
And what happens if you use
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
?

Yes, I am sure that I am using the right image. I tried several, always checked that they were for addison.
I also unlocked the bootloader in developer options - although now that you mention it: in the fastboot screen it still says oem_locked. So maybe that is the problem?
c:\adb>fastboot boot twrp.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.047s]
booting...
(bootloader) permission denied!
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.054s
Okay, I managed to unlock the bootloader with the unlock key I got from Motorola.
Now when I try to flash it says:
c:\adb>fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
target max-sparse-size: 256MB
sending 'recovery' (14522 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.049s]

Oh Jesus... Bootloader unlock is not just the option in Dev settings. Google it, you'll find a website from Motorola that guides you through the process and provides you with everything necessary
Yes, I did that by now as I said in the post before. Sorry, but I'm a beginner
Now it says that the image is not signed or corrupt. IDK what to do anymore.
Booting in TWRP works but when flashing Lineage from SD card I get the error:
recv error on unevent
and
failed to mount data.
I wiped everything using TWRP and I also tried to use another version of TWRP, so a corrupted file can't be the problem.
I figured it out.
I had to restore the file system by only checking the "System" box when wiping with TPWR - just in case anybody else has the same problems.
So a factory data reset solve the problem? Having your first issue with moto e5 cricket and you can't unlock three bootloader

well, i had it unlocked via the settingsbutton and after read this here , via the website where you can get the 20 bits code, but it is the same result with a code that is the same as the adb devices code, just as before! Only thing that is changed is a warning when you starts the phone up.

Hi!!
I have a model XT2013-1. I was having the same problem as you, so I updated TROIKA-RETBR on 02/22/2020.
After updating, I did the procedure of this link "https://forum.xda-developers.com/one-action/how-to/twrp-magisk-root-motorola-one-action-t3975883", skipping the step "8.2- Now tap on Wipe> Format Data> Type Yes and go back to the home screen again. " This step gave me the looping error.
Now root works perfect !!
Thank you very much. I will try it.

It's A/B device so it doesn't have dedicated recovery partition. It's inside boot.img.
Use fastboot boot twrp.img
Once booted to twrp, you can use the twrp installer zip to flash twrp recovery ramdisk to your boot.img for permanent installation.

Did you follow all instructions from twrp thread. like flashing modified vbmeta and wipe data before booting twrp?
Also take a look at the original thread for one vision as it has a newer zip that contains only one modified vbmeta.img instead of two different ones in the older zip that is posted in one action's twrp thread.
I rooted using fastboot, I could never get into TWRP to flash anything.
In fastboot, I flashed the modified vbmeta.img, then flashed the magisk patched boot img file (I created this with magisk), then flashed the patched vbmeta.img file, then did a fastboot wipe.
Rebooted, set up the phone, installed magisk manager and opened, it needed to update some files. Rebooted, and the device was rooted.

Thank you very much for your input. You must be an expert! WOW! Sorry I am not that expert........ Would you mind explaining (1) how to modify vbmeta.img and (2) how to patch boot.img? It is very impressive to read what you have done, but sorry I am still a beginner. Also, when I flash, "fastboot flash (File Name)" ok?
Thank yuo very much for your help.

You don't need to modify vbmeta.img. I am using the older version of the root Moto Vision package, which has a vbmeta.img file, and a patched vbmeta.img file.
For the modified boot img, I downloaded the full image from https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/troika/official/
Extract, and then take the boot.img file, you will want that saved to a phone that has Magisk installed.
Follow these instructions to patch
https://www.ytechb.com/how-to-patch-a-file-in-magisk-manager/
Once you have that, you will want that patched file into the fastboot directory on your computer. You will also want the vbmeta and the patched vbmeta img files (from the root moto vision package) in this directory. I have not used the updated version, I am using the older. I don't know about using the newer package which only has 1 vbmeta file.
Put your phone into fastboot mode.
Flash the vbmeta.img file, then the magisk patched boot file, then the vbmeta patched file. Then do a fastboot wipe of the phone.
Reboot the phone.
Set it up again, install magisk manager, then open it, and it should ask to configure. Let it do that, it should reboot and after that, you should be rooted.

I guess goofball2k detailed reply might have helped by now. On the other hand, I'm just curious to know that the next time you or anyone else for that matter face the same issue, please flash the stock firmware (using any of the Android 10 tools from here ) at that instance, then again start the same process and let me know whether you succeed or not (you will still have to execute the fastboot boot twrp command around 4-8 times, but during all these attempts, you should now get the success message, and after x number of attempts, you should succeed). So in short, if flashing the stock firmware after that error helps you out, do let me know
Thank you

You aren't flashing, your command is trying to boot from vbmeta.img. You are missing the flashing command.
