Hi,

I didn't know about that font changer app until now. You should've said something about it in the original thread.

I assume you didn't backup your stock rom in recovery, so you have to flash something else.

Yesterday you said you want to have a custom rom and not the original stock rom so the question goes:

Do you want a ROM with HTC Sense skin or a pure Android without Sense (AOSP)?

If you want your mobile running in no time, I recommend either a ICS Sense ROM or ICS/JB AOSP ROM.

If you want a JB Sense ROM it will be more work for you and a slower process.

Pick between those and I will give advice on what particular ROM yous should choose.

You can take a look here for Sense roms: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1536

and here for AOSP-ROMs http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1684

My personal recommendation is the official CyanogenMod ROM, which is based on AOSP and is very stable and fluid.

Check it out here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1786696

When you have chosen your ROM, or have questions, I will help you.

Do not worry mate, I've seen hundreds of these cases and all have been sorted out just fine. :D

And please remember to click the thanks button. ;)
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
gimme a sec i need to digest this info
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Count me in ! Always try to help but this all could be avoided by doing better research !

But we are here now and everything is going to be just fine with this tag team online :thumbup:

Going to put my kids to bed first :D
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
I also want my original rom... the official one.. my version is 2.17.111.3
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
I think Its best to check or a ruu or a nandroid backup in the backup thread ! Hoe is your battery holding ?
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
I have.. HBOOT-1.12.0000

and no i dont know fastboot commands.. i just followed the video.. didn't know what he was doing and I honestly dontknow what fastboot and hboot is lol
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
i've been charging... but i cant tell where its at because my phone wont turn on (stuck on htc logo).. and I dont know what a ruu is.. my version is 2.17.111.3
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
dont i need to put my phone in drive mode so i can save the rom to my sd card? Well.... I cant do that because in order to put it in drive mode u have to have ur phone on and my phone cant pass htc logo... so i cant install a rom?
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Hooray, tag team! :D

@awesomelyawesome

I'm sorry, but I can't find the RUU or stock nandroid backup for your main version. It might be that you can't return to stock.

ROM transfer is possible in CWM.

Marcel, please see if you can spot the RUU?
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
does it have to be the same version? cant I have an american version of htc sense? this is a german tmobile version and i dont like it because im not from germany.. i just change the language to english
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Yes, it has to be the exact same version.

Start looking for those rom varieties I posted earlier.
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
Do those roms have to be a specific version?
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
No, but with your current hboot version you should ignore JB Sense ROMs. All others are good.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Nope it's not there, only older ones but they are useless, guess you are stuck on a custom rom for a while ..... First we have to get fastboot up and running, download this

http://db.tt/ldx3qOOU

And put the files like this

C:\fastboot\here the files i gave you

Did u install HTC drivers ?
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
I want a Jelly bean one.. could you recommend one for me? I honestly dont know much about roms
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
You can't run a JB rom because your hboot doesn't support it
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
:( Can I get one that supports it?
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
Did you run it as admin? App crashing? Screenshot please??
[HTC One X] edimi6o:
I made i full system wipe and try again so its working perfectly and thank you so much guys you really helped me as much as you can i will not forget it. best regards. :victory:
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
Glad it helped! Cheers! ;)
[HTC One X] jkabu:
i have the same problem

my hboot number is 1.39.0000

i have s-on

i have the fastboot file and i have clockworkmod v5.8.4.0 i have no backups please help! :(
[HTC One X] robchongke:
what exactly did you do?
[HTC One X] jkabu:
root

i was about to root my phone. when it sad reboot your phone i rebooted it and i got stuck on the boot screen.

can you help plz :crying:
[HTC One X] robchongke:
more information please. step by step if you could.
[HTC One X] jkabu:
one x boot loop

step 1. i have unlocked the bootloder and it went great!

step 2. i was going to root it with one click root thing... and when my phone was rebooting it got stuck on the boot screen

step 3 i looked on youtube how to fix it and i saw a video that sed i hade to flash recovery so i flashed clockworkmod recovery v5.8.4.0 and that worked. but the phone is still stuck on boot loop/boot screen! now i don't know what to do!:(

step 4 i have clead cushe and dalvik but still onthing works
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Check the cyanogenmod rom I linked earlier. It is 4.1.2. Jelly Bean.
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
but he said my hboot doesn't support it
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
I mean no sense based JB roms.....you wanted stock rom back so i figured it's going to be a sense rom !
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
oh i dont want sense anymore because there is none my version..
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
is the 4.2 jelly bean one good?
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
okay so i want that one but before we continue... everytime cyanogenmod releases an update.. will they automatically send me an update? or i have to do the whole process all over again?
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
CM ROMs include an OTA update service. It's basically one-click procedure and doesn't require PC.
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
so basically there is a button i press and it updates?
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Correct, it shows a list of available updates, if you tap one of them it downloads it. After download is done, you just tap OK and it automatically flashes it.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Well then let's go for that one then !

Basically there are a lot of sense based roms for you but they are all ICS roms and not JB roms.....
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
Okay lets start
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
this is gunna be long
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Download the latest nightly from here: http://get.cm/?device=endeavoru
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
First step is to get fastboot up and working ...did you download the fastboot files i gave you ?
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
I already had fastboot files
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
should i delete them and download yours?
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
23 minutes left till it downloads.. could you guys tell me what else i should do while this loads?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Oke ! Put the phone in bootloader and check if you see

Fastboot USB

Open a command prompt in the fastboot folder and type

Fastboot devices

If it comes up with a serialnr of the phone your are good to go
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
yeah it gave me my serial #
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
That's good !

Ow you still are on the custom recovery and unlocked bootloader ? I'm doing multiple things here so I might ask you the same thing twice :D

Ow and ttoivanen might want to help with the correct boot.img and gapps thing, I'm not into that I never use the CM10 roms

But when you downloaded the rom you have to copy it to the sd card which you can mount in the custom recovery

Mounts & storage - down to the bottom you see something like mount as USB diskdrive
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
yes
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
is ice cold jelly better than the one im downloading?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Don't know i don't use those roms !

I edited my last post also ...
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
im not sure how i can do that because my phone wont turn on.......
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
If you mean the 4.2.1 version, it's not quite as stable as CM10, because it was released just a couple of days ago. And it lacks the OTA feature.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
In the other thread you said you could enter the recovery ? You can mount the sdcard as an USB disk and then copy the rom.zip to it
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
Thank you so much that was one of my main problems and you helped me solve it :D
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
does google now work?
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Thanks Marcel, completely forgot about gapps. Here, download these google app also. http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20120726-signed.zip E: Google now works fine.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
And i'm the one who doesn't use these roms :D:D:D:p;):p:D:p:p

You guys can press thanks later :p
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
The Cyanogenmod rom finished downloading.. 11 mins left for the other one you just told me to download now.

Do you guys really think this will fix my phone being stuck on the htc one x screen? what did the font changer have to do with this? how did my rom delete itself?
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Yes, of course it will be fixed. The font changer probably corrupted the framework somehow.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
And when you have it up and running you should make a nandroid backup in the recovery ... When you flash anything that is not working you always have something to return to !
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
Should we start without the gapps-jb-20120726.... file and do other things while it downloads?
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Go ahead and copy boot.img from the rom.zip you just downloaded to the folder where you have the fastboot files.

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
It's on now ! Bring the action TToivanen !!!

---------- Post added at 09:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 PM ----------

So if i get it right you need to have the rom.zip and gapps on the sdcard of the phone and the boot.img file inside the fastboot folder on pc !
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
Thats done
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
gapps finished downloading
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
What shall I do now?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
How far are you ? Boot.img in fastboot folder and gapps and Rom.zip on the sd card ?
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
yeah thats done sir
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Sure. :D

Now that you hopefully have the rom and gapps on sdcard and boot.img in fastboot folder, go ahead and boot in bootloader.

Then connect phone via usb cable to pc and type to fastboot command prompt:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

Followed by:

fastboot erase cache

Then boot to CWM and install rom and then gapps through the "install zip from sdcard"

option.

Finally wipe cache, dalvik cache and batttery stats in recovery.

Reboot to your fine new CM10 rom. :thumbup:

[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Followed by a dance of joy ! :D
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
should i rename it "boot.img" or just leave it as it currently is "boot"?
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
okay how do i "boot to CWM"??
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Leave it as boot, because windows hides file extensions and it would become boot.img.img.

You boot to cwm by selecting the "recovery" in bootloader screen.

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
How do I boot to CWM
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
When you are in the bootloader menu you choose HBOOT first it will load a new screen and there you can select with the volume buttons the RECOVERY ...confirm with the power button
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
Thank you guys so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
This means you are jumping with joy and it works ?
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
Where is google now? how come it wont let me use my camera? it says no external storage
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
I guess that's TToivanen department !
[HTC One X] shiverz07:
Damn man you have bad luck. Did you install gapps? http://goo.im/gapps

Don't know about the camera but I've seen JB 4.2 camera around these threads but it's a bit of a technical install...
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Sorry for bit of a downtime. I was at church with my family...

You flashed gapps didn't you? You have the google apps like gmail, play store, right?

Then GNow should be there too. You can use it in the voice search app.

The voice search can be mapped to long press home or menu if you want.

The camera problem seems weird, I have to do some research before I can say anything to that.

Can you access sdcard from e.g. cm file manager?

Try connecting phone to pc and formatting sdcard from there.

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC One X] awesomelyawesome:
yeah it worked thanks... but now i have a new problem! look at my other thread
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Why the other thread ???
[HTC One X] crackerman58:
A little help please

Hello, I have similar issue and followed your instructions for recovery. When I boot in recovery mode i just get the HTC white screen with some info about this build is for development purposes and it goes no further. The fastboot commands I followed gave me the expected results but no recovery... any ideas where to go from here (I hope not to the phone store to buy a new phone).

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Can you enter the bootloader by holding the power button & volume - until it boots in the bootloader, what does the info say there. Is the bootloader unlocked ?

Lets try to get back to stock first.

Can you give the outcome on this fastboot command ?

Fastboot getvar version-main
[HTC One X] chiefywonder:
Did you flash a custom recovery?
[HTC One X] crackerman58:
I can get into the bootloader, and I have unlocked and locked it several times. I have tried the All-in-one kit software and followed instructions with no success. I can flash a custom recovery or do factory reset, but whenever it reboots it goes to the same HTC development info screen. I left it on that screen last night and went to sleep hoping it was just slow and would be working by morning, but no such luck. I am a noob when it comes to phones and thought I could follow instructions properly, but apparently that is not the case. If I was not at work today I would take it to my local ATT store and see if they could fix it, or find out what a replacement would cost. I will try to get a chance to d/l the fastboot software here at work and post my results a little later. What I see when I turn on phone and go to bootloader menu is:

Thanks for the help, as usual I am extremely grateful for any help :o
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Oh mate,you are in the wrong forum.don't flash stuff from here ! You have to go to the at&t rogers HTC one xl forum !!!
[HTC One X] crackerman58:
LOL... my luck, asking for help in the wrong place. You can see how little I know about these blasted phones! I will start my search again in the correct forum, thank you very much for your assistance.

:laugh:
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
There are tools in the HTC one xl for your phone :thumbup:
[HTC One X] john_d1974:
hi, im also having a similar issue.

i can get into bootloader ok but not recovery (i get a red exclamation mark).

if i put PD98img into the root of the sd i get a boot loop.

i have tried putting the boot image into the fastboot folder and the rom into the sd etc but i cant get the fastboot.exe to work on my pc

can someone please help?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Did you flash a custom recovery to begin with ?
[HTC One X] john_d1974:
i did have a custom rom yes.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
I mean a custom recovery, not rom....it looks like you see a stock recovery when you try to enter it !

And install the htc drivers, and get a copy of the fastboot files or download java sdk package....
[HTC One X] john_d1974:
sorry, i have a custom rom and i thought the backup i made using rom manager would be a custom recovery?

ive downloaded both the fastboot files and sdk but neither can connect my phone to my laptop (or my wifes).
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
You have to open a command prompt inside the fastboot folder on the pc, put the phone in the bootloader where you see fastboot usb in red text. After that you typenthe command

Fastboot devices

Check if a serial comes up.

Otherwise check the android dev section - stickies.....there are a lot of tutorials there
[HTC One X] john_d1974:
already checked and i get no serial, will check the stickies but can see me buying a new phone tbh.
[HTC One X] archie winnington-ingram:
*HELP*

you are probably bored of this by now, but I am also stuck on the HTC quietly brilliant screen.

I have clockwork recovery and hboot. I first tried to flash ICJ but omitted the boot.img. I think I read it wasn't necessary.

That actually worked fine, but there were a few issues with WiFi etc so I started from scratch this time doing the boot.img and it got me stuck here.

I tried to restore my back up, still on the HTC start screen.

I tried a factory reset - same issue.

I tried following the help on this thread and flashed CMD - plus boot.img via CMD - window and Gaaps and still the same issue.

:(
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
So you actually can flash boot.img files with succes ? If so try another rom (a sense based maybe) what is your hboot number ?

And flash the bot.img, then a FULL WIPE in recovery and after that install the Rom.zip

---------- Post added at 09:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 PM ----------

Oke first thing now is to get fastboot back up, its that i don't have the time otherwise we could jump on teamviewer .... But there are good tuts about that

[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Good choice :thumbup:

I hope to see some good news on that

One tip : the question about the custom kernel in the installer of the Rom you must answer with

NO ! ;)
[HTC One X] archie winnington-ingram:
This is looking good.... I think my issue was actually not running the "fastboot erase cache" CMD. So once this is up and running I will try flashing a non-sense rom. I will stick with this for now though, thank you so much.

---------- Post added at 11:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 PM ----------

Balls. *UPDATE* still stuck on htc quietly brilliant.
[HTC One X] archie winnington-ingram:
FLIPPING PROGRESS, I got to the htc ONE beatsaudio on viper rom, I assume this will just take a few minutes. I really hope this works. going to plug in and go to sleep!

okay, it's now up and running,

ps what I did was, lock my bootloader and then unlock it again (same code) and then start from the beginning... I reckon first time round I must have done something dumb.

Anyway, a happy man. thanks.

Nice to hear this mate ! :thumbup: have fun with it :D
[HTC One X] zkuzmanic:
Noob troubles

I'm sorry if this is in the wrong space but I've been scouring the internet for days wondering if I'll ever have a working phone again.

On my HTC One X I successfully unlocked bootloader and then flashed a custom recovery TWRP 2.4.1.0 using the HTC One X All in One Kit. I then tried to install the latest version of Viper XL. When the installation started I got an assert message, something like this:

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device")=="endeavoru" ||

getprop("ro.build.product")=="endeavoru" ||

getprop("ro.product.board")=="endeavoru" ||

Afterwards my phone went into the infinite reboot cycle and I've been unable to even make it to bootloader by holding down the power and volume keys until my hands went numb. No luck, still rebooting loop to the HTC home screen.

My carrier is AT&T if that matters.

Have I bricked it? Is there a way out of this? Any help at all would be greatly appreciated!
[HTC One X] TToivanen:
Do you have the international Tegra 3 or the north american dualcore version of the phone? Does it say evita or endeavoru on the top of bootloader?
[HTC One X] zkuzmanic:
I no longer can get to the bootloader screen but when I did it said "evita"
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Ah then you have to go the HTC one Xl , at&t, rogers forum. This is got the endeavoru type phones ..... Hopefully you didn't brick it
[HTC One X] zkuzmanic:
Thanks for the direction at least.
[HTC One X] archie winnington-ingram:
Haha, so been running viper with no issues, although looking forward to de sensing. But I, typically, the night after sorting it all out, had one too many, dropped my phone, and smashed my screen.

Thank god for orange care (insurance) their customer service has been excellent.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Ooooh wow :( so get a replaced screen or a new phone !.nice .....so you can start all over !
[HTC One X] archie winnington-ingram:
Yeah, it actually happened with my hero, desire and desire hd too. So worth the insurance price. They send you a brand spanking new phone within 24 hours of making a claim. Can't wait, going to unlock bootloader etc straight out the box. Then flash a nice simple stripped Rom.

Ps get insurance if you haven't already.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Well I don't have to, its my own phone but my company pays the insurance because i am willing to use it as a company phone too .....:)
[HTC One X] archie winnington-ingram:

[HTC One X] kernil:
htc one x unroot

hello i did the exact same thing as the guy but i didn't install the font changer, when i installed the rom from CWR it was'nt working, it wnt straight to the flashing android logo but the after 5 mins i had the rom and it was working untill later that night their was this stange noise coming from my phone when i wasn't using it.......then i later found out that the battery life was soo soo bad,with only fiv mins on facebook it went down 10 percente.please i havn't done anything yet to channge the ROM or anything, i forgot to make a recovery of my stock rom. i want to get it back to stock like when i first bought it ..thank you so much for reading and reply and try help my thanks x
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Oke do the fastboot command

Fastboot getvar version-main

Report back please :D
[HTC One X] kernil:
sorry i don't know what you mean i'm quite a noob to all this, can you give me a detailed description of what has to be done if you can, thanks again
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Uhm well yes ......

Make sure you installed the HTC drivers and then download android sdk. Unpack it and navigate to the folder containing a file named fastboot.exe (do a search is easier i guess)

Hold shift and right click inside that folder - open command window here

Now put the phone in the bootloader and connect it to the pc

Now enter in the command window the next :

Fastboot getvar version-main

It should give you a number as an outcome !
[HTC One X] kernil:
hello thank you for replying, i'm not gonna do this thing right away i have to wait two weeks because i'm going abroad right now and me and my cousin are doing it because he's more experienced and everything thanks again. by theway what does the number do when i get it and what do i do after, thanks
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Oke once you have the number you can go to this website

http://androidfiles.org/ruu/?dir=Endeavor

And check if the matching number is there ! If its not you check for a higher one

Example :

The number = 2.17.401.** and it happeneds not to be there then you an check for 3.14.401.**

Note that this is an example !

When you obtained the right one you must lock the bootloader

Fastboot oem lock

And run the ruu from the pc WITH admin rights !

It should flash the phone back to 100% stock !

Tip : charge the battery full before you start.
[HTC One X] kernil:
thanks alot mate will notify you later, will it 100% though if i do the correct steps you told me, any whoo thanks for you time man

:good::o
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
It should work, otherwise im here ;)
[HTC One X] kernil:
mate thanks once again, you are are a complete life saver, will notify you later bye :) :) :) x
