Stuck in bootloop & can't connect to pc. - HTC One X

I was flashing my phone back to stock and got ms5 . Now the phone has disconnected from the pc and won't reconnect.
was on Renovate 5.8 tried reflashing the rom now just boot loops. Any ideas how to connect to the pc again.
Need all the help I can get and thank you in advance everyone.

Can you enter the bootloader by holding the power button and the volume down button together until it restarts and enters the bootloader ?

Yes I can get in to the bootloader. Keep getting USB failed when it opens.

And at that time you have the cable to the pc connected ? What happens if you enter the recovery from the bootloader

Can also get into recovery, just no PC connection.

Oke and you can mount the sdcard as a mass storage device within the recovery ?
And what connection did exactly lost then. The fastboot usb connection for flashing boot.img files ?

Yes the fastboot usb connection fails to show on the computer. Trying the mass storage now I'm getting E: Unable ot open ums lunfile.

CWM is outdated. Download this one: http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
And flash like this:
"fastboot flash recovery filename.img"
Phone in fastboot mode of course.

And as far the fastboot usb connection, try to re-install HTC drivers and check that the device is recognized by the pc. Then put the phone in the bootloader again and try the command
Fastboot devices
Hopefully it brings back the serial
Or you may need to update the java sdk platform tools

Rename the recovery to just recovery.img and try again
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot devices gets the serial ?
And it sounds stupid......but....the file is actually in the fastboot folder

Tried fastboot devices and got a HT number which I hope is the serial number. Downloading the SDK tools again now.
Thank you for all the help you are giving me.

If the serial comes up you are good to go and flash ....did you try the idea i gave in my previous post ?

That Worked phone is up and running again.
Thanks for all your help you may have saved my life. The other half would have killed me if I suddenly went and got a new phone.

Nice ! Glad it worked

Mac OS X Fastboot Mode <Waiting for Device>

Hi, I am trying to Re-Lock my Galaxy Nexus GSM version, I've downloaded the SDK files (adb-mac and fastboot-mac) and all the image files and I am trying to execute the following commands:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-toro-primekk15.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio-toro-i515.ek02.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio-cdma radio-cdma-toro-i515.ek05.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot -w update image-mysid-icl53f.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot oem lock
With the phone in normal mode I connect the USB cable to the computer, start Terminal windows and run the first command, "./adb-mac reboot bootloader" and the phone will boot into the "Fastboot Mode", then I try to execute "./fastboot-mac devices" to make sure the phone is connected and properly detected and I get nothing.
If I try to execute "./fastboot-mac flash bootloader bootloader-toro-primekk15.img" I get the message <waiting for device> and it will stay there forever.
Do you know what might be the problem ?, is there other method to do this ?, go back to Stock ROM and Re-Lock the device ?, thanks
i use windows but i also get problems when i didnt had a break after the flash parts/ update parts

I know nothing about using Macs but have you installed the device drivers? As you are getting no serial number returned when using fastboot devices im guessing not.
Mark.
On a side note please do not post questions in the Development Forums as that is not the place for them.
Thanks.
The device is being detected while running in normal mode, meaning I do have the drivers, the problem is when I go into FASTBOOT MODE, I can no longer see the phone

But for the simple command ./fastboot-mac devices should work and it's not
in bootloader mode u need other drivers
but dont know how to install them on mac
First thing, make sure your fastboot file is executable
from the folder containing fastboot-mac:
chmod a+x fastboot-mac
You do not need further drivers on a mac. Just make sure you are using the correct fast boot and have all of the images in the same folder. Try using a different USB port. I renamed my fastboot file to fastboot and copied it into usr/local/bin folder so it can be accessed without the ./ ...Hope this helps...I actually just got done restoring mine because its gotta go back to the store because the internal storage is all sorts of jacked up...Since you clearly have a mac, have you had any issues using android file transfer?

I just checked and Fastboot is executable, as a matter of fact it's running, the problem is that the phone cannot be seen from the FASTBOOT mode, and I can see from the phone screen that IT IS in Fastboot Mode, it says in RED letters "FASTBOOT MODE"

Well reboot your phone. Once up, try and boot into boot loader the manual way by powering off the device, holding both vol + and -, and press power... then try your fastboot commands. Are you rooted or no?

I've done that, going into FASTBOOT MODE manually and the same result. Yes I am rooted.
I just want to go back to stock and re-lock the phone, is there other way to accomplish that ?
NOTE: I've tried Mac and PC (Galaxy Nexus Root Toolkit 1.3), different USB cables, different USB ports, reinstalled all the drivers on the Windows computer, NOTHING, the phone it's not being detected in FASTBOOT MODE.
Is it possible to go back to stock and re-lock from the Recovery Mode ?, I have ClockWorkMode 5.5.0.2 installed and working fine.
You can flash a Stock Rom via cwm but you can only relock the phone via fastboot mode.
Has this problem only surfaced recently?
You say that you are rooted and have cwm flashed so how did you do that?
Do you have another usb cable that you can try?

I used FASTBOOT to unlock and Root, no problem at all, use the phone for 10 days and them decided to go back to Stock and Re-Lock. If I connect the phone in normal operating mode to the computer it will be recognized and I can see the phone from the computer connected via USB, so the cabe, port on the phone and port on the computer are OK. I've tried different computer (Mac and PC), different OS (Mac OS X and Windows 7), different USB cable, different USB port.
Just make sure USB debugging is on...try getting on a PC and running the ODIN file from someone was kind enough to post us...to get into odin mode, just hold up while the phone is off and hit power. You need the drivers installed and the latest version of ODIN on your desktop as well.

Plug your phone in and then turn it off...download the odin file from xda...not sure who posted it...it will be a 7z file...inside there are two separate .tar files. Extract these from the .7z file but do not fully unzip them. Place the one without LTE in the name in PDA and the one with LTE in phone, turn your phone on while holding vol -... there is a box that turns yellow in odin once your phone is connected. then check your screen against the one posted where you get the odin full restore file from and verify it matches, then flash it...

It's a locked bootloader
I'm going to try on a different pc to see if i can get it to work in fastboot to use fastboot charge script!
It's not charging via usb but i've left it on mains now.
How did you execute the .bat file for recharging ?
With the phone in bootloader and then run the script, it should continuously reboot the phone

Do you have the HTC drivers installed and do you have the fastboot folder with the fastboot and adb files on the pc ?
You have to run the script from the within the folder with the fastboot files and with the phone in bootloader menu .....
When its in bootloader you should see
Fastboot usb
When the phone is conected to the pc !
Then you can try this command
Fastboot devices
Then the serial from the phone should show up
All the fastboot commands have to be executed from the command prompt on the pc

So when i start my phone it loads the rom but doesn't boot. All i can get into is my hboot. My htc one x is s-on as well. Please any help would be great.

I flashed clockworkmod recovery onto my phone but i cant get into my phone to use the usb storage option to copy the rom onto my phone.
enter the bootloader by pressing volume - and the power button together as long as you are in the bootloader, do not let go before that.....then navigate to HBOOT - RECOVERY. it boots to recovery and activate the mount as mass storage device in the mounts and storage section (if you have CWM) if you get an error by doing that i suggest you flash the latest CWM recovery 5.8.4.0 first. older ones dont have this option !

That notification is normal, we all have that due to the usb cable being connected !
Did you install the rom with the cable connected ? That's a no go......always install a rom without the usb connected ! First put the phone into the bootloader, hold power and volume - until you are in. Then the fastboot command
Fastboot erase cache
From this point you disconnect the cable. enter the recovery and re-install the viper rom again.
You did flash the boot.img from the rom right ?

You need to flash the boot.img file just like a recovery . Boot.img file in the fastboot folder
In the command window

Enter recovery and install the rom. And for the kernel question you answer with option 1.viper x delivered !

can you still enter the recovery ? if so....put the phone in the recovery and put it on the wallcharger, then you select 1 time REBOOT RECOVERY and let it sit there. it will charge up !

Yes put the phone in the bootloader and put this script in the fastboot folder. Open a command window there and type
Batt script.bat
http://db.tt/aLqeTpPO
It will continuesly reboot the bootloader and charge the phone little by little ! Until you got some power and can acces the custom recovery to charge it more !
If it does not work, remove the space in batt script.bat so it says battscript.bat .....

I am going to sound very stupid. Could you give me the exact line of command to use if the fastboot folder is saved in the local storage on the computer (c: drive), i dont want to do more damage then i have.:silly:
Example when the fastboot files are in
C:\fastboot\the fastboot files
Then you copy that battscript into that folder
Then you navigate to that folder and hold down shift and right click the mouse inside that folder, then choose "open command prompt here"
In that command prompt you type
Battscript.bat (hit enter)
And the phone should start rebooting.
If the fastboot folder is somewhere else you repeat my steps only change folder that i used.....

[Q] Stuck on boot screen,

Im sorry if this has been answered so many times but ive spent about 4 hours looking around and i couldnt understand half of the solutions that were out there. My problem is that i attempted to root my htc one x and i succeeded. Then i tried to put the new jellybean 4.2.2 cyanogen10.1 mod nightlies or something like that. This failed terribly. I have no back ups or anything what so ever. I dont care about anything i may have lost, i only want to get the phone working again. I know i should have researched this further before trying, but yeah... if anybody has done the same thing and solved there matter i'd be so grateful. it still responds on fastboot. heres some info on the bootloader screen. I tried factory resetting it, clearing the cache...none worked.

Adb reboot bootloader

Hi, same problem here..
my phone got stuck on the startup screen (HTC quietly brilliant). But my case is different because im a total noob, newly registered here. I bought my htc one x that is already in CM10 jellybean mode. last night i got a notification for cm10 update, I just click it without thinking much (cause im a noob) then after rebooting it just freezes... I hope senior members here can help me, i reallly dont want to lose my data..
You probably updated to CM10.1. You need to take the update's boot.img and flash it in fastboot.

You place the boot.img file from the CM10 rom.zip (its inside) in the fastboot folder on the pc, then you put the phone in the bootloader
Open the command window in the fastboot folder(point in the fastboot folder hold down shift + right mouse button- open command window here) and type

just to be sure, the bootloader mode is when the HBOOT is highlighted blue am i right?
oh i hate myself..
It should say
Fastboot usb in red text above that
In bootloader you should highlight fastboot using volume keys and press power. Then fastboot mode should be engaged and FASTBOOT USB text visible.

Do you have HTC syncmanager installed on the pc ? Uninstall it but leave the drivers when asked !
Reboot the pc and the bootloader....check again.
And you should have a myhtc in the device manager when the phone is plugged in the pc

Yesterday I upgrade my hboot from 1.12 to 1.39 (CID BSTAR301).
The firmware is for my CID, but not the same carrier.
So I relock the bootloader, flash firmware.zip on fastboot, unlock the bootloader again....
Until this, everithing was ok, but when I tried to install a rom, I can't access the sdcard via CWM....
Reboot again to fastboot, and I get the error Failed to open usb master mode.
With adb I push Sky Dragon Rom, but I can't access my sdcard from the rom, neither the pc...
I've tried:
- reflashing the firmware
- fastboot oem format (invalid command)
- reflashing everithing
- Use go-mtpfs
And nothing, I just can't access my sdcard, and I don't have a RUU tu reflash it...
Does anyone have any other suggestion???
Thanks in advance...
BTW, the hboot update was succesful, my HOX is now on hboot 1.39
The failed usb master mode error when you enter the bootloader is because the cable is connected. Remove the cable and try all things again.
Now for the sdcard acces, what happens when you mount the sdcard as a diskdrive inside the recovery ?
Try this :
Flash a new custom recovery
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache

Try this one (rename it to recovery.img)

First, thanks for the answer..
I can mount the 2gb internal memory, but I can't access my 32gb sdcard...
It happens with the old recovery (CWM), and with the new one....
Also, when the phone boots up completely have the same issue...
Yesterday I was trying to send some files via airdroid, but It says that I can't.
Even if I try to format the sdcard, get an error...
Also, adb pus file sdcard pushes the file to the internal memory, not the external one
Strange ! So you select in the recovery the mounts & storage menu - mount as usb storage (last option in the list) nothing comes up in windows ?
Try it with another pc ! Original usb cable, no usb hub ?

Sorry, didn't try to mount...
After checking it works now, thanks a lot...
I'm thinking in post the firmware to update and this solution, if you agree
Yeah why not ....but mounting the sdcard as an usb diskdrive is standard for at least a year already
All good now ? Good
CASE CLOSED !
I have the same issue, ... but the link is dead ::
"Flash a new custom recovery
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
http://db.tt/z07vyksQ
Try this one (rename it to recovery.img)"
Could you repost it, or put it in google drive, etc. ??? or just tell me which Custom Recovery was ... that worked for that matter please ... =D

The HOX is not S-OFF you need to flash boot.img from fastboot with the command fastboot flash boot bootname.img where bootname is your name of boot.img. Just download fastboot and extract the zip file to c:\fastboot then open cmd go in fastboot with your phone, take the boot.img from your rom.zip paste it in c:\fastboot and then run the command
