This is the only phone I've had to use Linux on though. I don't have time to learn linux, and the windows script doesn't work it seems. It says the same thing everytime.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
Well that's easy enough. The fact that you can't figure this out just by looking at that tells me you are not ready to root this phone.

ADB doesn't find your phone so you've either got USB debugging disabled or you don't have the drivers installed or there's something conflicting with the drivers.

Most likely the first reasons since Fastboot seems to work.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
Nice snarky little attitude. I have debugging on, all the correct drivers have been installed (TWICE). Instead of acting superior, maybe you could direct me to something that can help me better. I've been at this for a day now, looking at everything I possibly can. I'm sorry that I'm not picking it up as quickly as you or others, but that is no reason for you to act that way.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
I am helping you ^_^ There's nowhere I can direct you since this is something you'll have to troubleshoot, if you wan't my help you'll just have to deal with me "acting superior". When you are running that command, is your phone in bootloader/fastboot mode or loaded into android?

Also, I said what I said for your own protection. This phone is quirky. You may find that out the hard way.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
Sorry, sorry, I'm frustrated. When I run the command, it is in android, but then reboots into the bootloader.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
No need to apologize, Bizarre that it says your phone isn't found and yet reboots to bootloader...

Can you do adb devices for me and tell me what it says while in android.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I'm in Windows command prompt. Now, that is probably my problem. Does it work with command prompt? I've downloaded adb, but when I run the adb application, it opens command prompt, scrolls through lines, then automatically closes. What did I screw up now?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
YEah you have to type it within command prompt. And because there's no path to it, your prompt needs to be in the directory your ADB program is in.

Also, before running that script did you move the files in the xpwn folder to the same folder as jose method folder?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
Ok, it says

List of devices attached

HT26JW306539 device

So, now that I'm in the right program, what should I do next? Just follow the guide?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
Yep, if you're using the jose method make sure you move the files in the xpwn folder to the same folder as jose method folder.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
completed, and submitted the token. How long does it usually take for them to send the email with the file?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
2 minutes
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
Got it! Now the bootloader is unlocked. Gotta figure out how to root it now.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
flash twrp 2.3.3.1

then you can flash su or flash a custom rom which will already be rooted.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
Finally found 2.3.3.1. Let's see how this goes
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
no go, keeps saying it cannot flash the file. Frustration returning lol.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
It says your unlocked in bootloader?

you downloaded it? http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/evita/openrecovery-twrp-2.3.3.1-evita.img

Then checked the md5 to make sure the download is good?

then put it in the folder with fastboot.exe?

Then did: fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.3.3.1-evita.img
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
This is what it says. I've tried a bunch of different ones, and they all say the same thing.

C:\Users\AmberRivers\Downloads\JOSE METHOD ONEX 318\JOSE METHOD>fastboot flash r

ecovery recovery-clockwork-6.0.2.8-evita.img

error: cannot load 'recovery-clockwork-6.0.2.8-evita.img'
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
yup unlocked in bootloader. I'm confused now.

And it seems goo.im is down for some reason.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
I wouldn't use cwm. Less Rom compatibility.

Sounds like the filename is spelt wrong or its not in the folder based on that error
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
SUCCESSFUL!!!! Had to move the fastboot and the .dll to another empty folder and it finally ran. Thank you so much for all the help, now I'm gonna put on a rom. Do you have any favorites?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
It all depends on what you're looking for in a ROM. We're not really allowed to say which ROM is best, it's frowned upon on xda. But if you like Sense, you could try Viper, Cleanrom, or the new Sense 5 ROM. There are countless options if you're more into the aosp side of things: Carbon, CM10.1, AOKP, Chameleon, Slimbean, Vanilla Rootbox, MIUI, PACMAN, Liquidsmooth.

So flash a couple, see what you like and what works for you. And have fun with your new found freedom. Exad is a great guy, always helping dudes out on here :thumbup:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
HELP ME! I've been trying to get the Carbon rom on here, but I'm stuck on a htc splash screen. What do I do? I know it said flash the boot.img, but command prompt says Error: cannot load 'boot.img'. What do I do???
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Have you extracted the boot.img from the ROM and put it in your fastboot folder?

Actually, a quick note: if you were on 3.18 you would need to downgrade your touchscreen firmware before you can use an aosp ROM I think. The way your phone is at the moment, only Sense ROMs will work. Try flashing Viper, I believe the installer flashes the boot.img for you. Once you've done that, you'll need to gain s-off and then downgrade your touchscreen firmware in order to use aosp ROMs.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
Yeah, but I may be doing it wrong
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Please see the extra note on my previous post.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
extract the rom zip file. copy the boot.img to your fastboot folder.

Shift right click within the folder and select open command prompt here.

fastboot flash boot boot.img
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
Ok, got rom on, but now my screen doesn't work!!! Cant tap anything! This is so annoying...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
If you flashed AOSP, you need to S-OFF and downgrade your touchscreen firmware since HTC updated the firmware but never released the source.

You would have to flash a sense rom to do so.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
I haven't been able to s-off. Should I just stick with a sense rom?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
That's exactly what I was trying to warn you about before lol
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
Downloaded UrDroid now. Will have to hope it works. But it should sense it is bases off pure stock sense, right?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
Got through Aroma Installer, now I'm stuck in boot loop. Any help?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DarthScabrous:
Nevermind, dumbass figured out what he did wrong. I did the steps backward, I flashed the rom in recovery first, then did the flashboot img. Such an idiot. Now going to start working on s-off

Hi, I'm posting this as a cloned discussion from:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=42326387

as it's been suggested to me that this section might be more appropriate for my question.

A brief discussion with user "unremarked" (thanks man!) hints to the fact that any inter-size flash should be theoretically possible, but I'm still hoping for some first-hand experience from you guys.

Thanks :)

I don't know what the sd card capacity has to do with it. Shouldn't make any difference. Are these knock offs he's selling? (I won't get into what I think of that)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] UoMoTaLpA:
I'm not talking about the SD card capacity, I'm talking about the embedded storage of the phones. And we are talking about REAL S4s in various configurations (9500, 9505, 9502 and so on). Since my question is apparently too complicated, let's pose it like this:

Example:

phone in my hands: ORIGINAL i9500 with 32gb INTERNAL MEMORY

what I want to do: flash a ROM that's been developed for a phone with 16gb INTERNAL MEMORY

Can-do?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] CZ Eddie:
It doesn't matter if the phone is 16GB or 32GB. One ROM fits them all.

Kind of like you installing Windows on your 100GB hard drive or your 2TB hard drive. As long as the *minimum* size is met, then you're good to go.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] rcklss1:
The ROMs aren't devolped for a particular sized GB phone.. Look at any of the ROM names or flash requirements.. NONE of them state you have to have a particular phone memory wise.. Just needs to be the right variant.. I've never heard of the 9502 or 9508 so can't say on them.. But if you have a i9500 phone then you can only flash ROMs made for the octacore processor in your phone.. So really you should be in the s4 i9500 forums as the AT&T, and Canadian variant phones are quad core not octacore

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
Relax dude, we're talking the same thing. Unless he's selling something that isn't what it seems it doesn't make any difference what the storage capacity is. Just like the other guys have said.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devilxmax:
My kindle got screwed up again after a restore from back up. Now it goes like this

a)shows Kindle fire (yellow) 1 second

b)shows fastboot 1 second

c)then screen goes blank, until I switch it off

As I switch it on, repeats a, b & c

The device manger keeps searching & refreshing OMAP4440 drivers every 2 second( with ding sounds)

This happens both with a factory cable as well as the standard usb.

Any one knows how to troubleshoot this?

Bump
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
OK I have no experience with bricked kindles that are bricked in that manner but I think kindle fire first aid may be useful, but if that device is not installing fast enough because of it shutting off before windows can complete installing the drivers I have to say and this may not be useful or something you want to try, but Linux might be the way to go, it typicly doesn't need to install the driver because drivers are either integrated into the kernel or loaded immediately as modules, and Linux comes with quite a few drivers by default. So your device would be recognized as its flashing off and on, from their I don't know what you could really do even if u have access to fast boot if it keeps shutting off evert two seconds I don't see you successfully flashing it unless u know how to write a bash script that waits for it to show up and then immediately flashes the boot loader, which is fairly small, it might be able to flash before it shuts off if your extremely lucky. From what my thought track is seeing i think it might stop with the constant rebooting once you manage to flash the bootloader, from their i woukd see fixing any other bad partitions as easy. This is all from a novice unbrickers standpoint. I may be completely off, haven't ever used kf first aid, so I don't know if your brick is fixable or not. Just thought I'd post my two cents since no one has been posting any help for you yet. Hopefully someone else that knows more about this can help you out.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phonexpert_alex:
looks like your device doesn't have enough power to stay in fastboot. just leave it charging for about an hour even if it doesn't display anything. it should still be charging.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devilxmax:
UMM!!

1. I tried pluging it in ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386 live usb, didnt detect the device. Do I have to download some thing before?

2. After a,b,c, the screen goes black but the OMAP4440 keeps refreshing in device manger it only stops when I push the power button for more than 20 seconds. I beleive the KFHD is not switching of but just goes to a black screen.

3. What is a bash script?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
OK bash is a way more flexible scripting language you use in Linux. Think the Linux equivalent of a windows batch file but way better. You said it was going into fast boot for a brief moment. Before rebooting, I figured if its long enough for the fast boot command to recognize it in Linux, you could have the command for flashing the boot partition handy in a terminal. I figured if you had a stroke of luck, because the boot partition is so small, you might be able to flash it and unbrick it to at least get it to boot into fast boot to the point where you could restore the other partitions. I don't remember how exactly the fast boot command works in terms of waiting for the device to show up, that's why j was thinking use a batch script to repeat itself until sometching happened, but if it waits for the device u could simply run fastboot -i 0x1949 flash boot boot.img. Note boot.Img would be whatever the boot image restore file is called. Also Ubuntu probably is detect it, you must don't know it, its not going to popup anything or do anything unusual when its detected, only way u would know is to either install a device manager, I use a gnome one because I use an older distro of ubuntu, or run a command from a terminal the moment u see fast boot screen, I don't remember the command offhand, actually running dmesg would probably show it being picked up as a device connected, not sure what exactly it would say though.

Hey, the description is quite technical for me. Can you write a step by step guide, starting from once i boot up a linus live usb (12.4 ubuntu)?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
I am literally falling asleep right now, I will write it tomorrow after I finish writing my résumé... I will warn you it will be slightly vague because I don't use the newer distributions of Ubuntu and am unfamiliar with the ui. Actually for simplicity I will upload a zip file with the fastboot binary and any files it requires, so I don't have to explain how to install stuff in Ubuntu. Hopefully the nautilus browser is the same. For the record nautilus is basically like Ubuntu version of windows explorer. As long as you can find your home folder and launch a terminal you should be able to follow my vague instructions. Anyways I will write a guide tomorrow since I am literally nodding off.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
OK I haven't finished my resume but I figured this wouldn't take long to explain and I will just keep procrastinating if I don't clear everything in my mind. OK so to start with you need to open a terminal, I am unfamiliar with exactly where that will be located on new versions version f Linux because it doesn't use gnome ui. Last I checked if u hit the Ubuntu logo a menu with apps would come out, if there's an accessories section it would probably be there, if not there's a search function, if not that try Ctrl alt t, not sure if that keyboard shortcut is standard or not though.OK now I feel I can use numbers.

1. Download included zip file( will post from my PC in a moment)

2. Open the home folder in Ubuntu, again unsure where this will be but usually it shows u some things on that bar on the left, if home isn't mong them then click on like videos or music and go up a level, that is usually home.

3. Extract the contents of the zip file to a folder in the home directory, let's call the folder kindlefix

4. Download http://goo.im/devs/Hashcode/tate/kfhd7-u-boot-prod-7.2.3.bin this file and put it in the kindlefix directory.

5. In the terminal and type "CD kindlefix", now type "md5sum kfhd7-u-boot-prod-7.2.3.bin". Now check that the string outputted is the same as the one on the website. If it is continue to next step if not try redownloading the file again and checking it again.

6. In the terminal now type ./fastboot -i 0x1949 flash bootloader kfhd7-u-boot-prod-7.2.3.bin

7. Try hitting enter with your device powered off and when fastboot says waiting for device, power it on with fastboot cable.

Like I've been saying this is going to take a bit of luck to flash successfully, and if it does try to flash and fail it will probably just brick it worse, at which point I'd return to amazon. You might have to repeat this step a few times to get the timing right to see if it will flash, its a fairly small file so u might get extremely lucky. Post back and tell me what kind of luck u manage to get.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r3pwn:
Your problem is that you are using OMAP drivers instead of fast boot or adb drivers.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
It does that yes, but only after it stays in fast boot for a few seconds, so we are trying to catch the kindle while its in fastboot with Linux so it can try to reflash the boot loader, if we could succeed in that then getting the rest working would be the easy part, though this as is is very difficult, only reason I even suggested trying this is because the boot loader is so small it doesn't take that long to flash, so I am hoping for it to flash in the few seconds it is in fastboot.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
If the device IS actually going into fastboot, then it's entirely possible to re-flash the bootloader.

In order to do this, you have to enter the command while the device is unplugged, then plug it in when you see "waiting for device". As soon as fastboot mode is detected, the command will execute and the bootloader will be flashed, but be warned....

While flashing the bootloader happens rather quickly, if for some reason only part of the bootloader is flashed, the device will likely be unrecoverable. I suggest that you make sure the md5sum of the downloaded u-boot-bin checks out, and that you aren't using an extraordinarily slow computer.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Yea at this point his kindle is going to go either way, either way though if he didn't try what he's doing or if he did and it didn't work he'd be sending it into amazon though more than likely and seeing if they'd take it.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToPViP:
I lost you on step 5. Which website? the md5sum that i get is (bb029673d8f186db4dff6d38f4aa28cf) <---Nevermind. I know what website you are talking about.
