That warning is normal when booting an image (like boot.img or recovery.img) which was not signed. The bootloader doesn't display that message for the stock boot images.

Thanks - so there must be another reason why I can't load a custom recovery!

Hi Everyone,

I am unable to enter my custom recovery (have attempted to install both CWM and TWPR) and I thought that the Disclaimer message may have something to do with it. My last phone was an HTC Sensation (onto which I also installed the Viper ROM), and with that phone I did not have to press any special keys (e.g.: volume, power, volume + power), after selecting RECOVERY from the Hboot menu, custom recovery simply loaded. However my new One XL simply enters into a boot loop until such time as I hold the power down for about 15 - 20 seconds.

Any further advice will be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Davo

Exact Recovery versions

Hi,

I started with;

recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.7-endeavoru.img

after having no luck with the above I moved onto;

recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img

Thanks

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Those recoveries aren't even for our device. You have the HTC One XL (Evita), not the HTC One X (Endeavoru). If you want to flash KitKat ROMs, download the modified version of TWRP 2.6.3.0 from here. If you want to flash any other ROM, download TWRP 2.6 from here.

Put the file in your fastboot folder. Connect phone in fastboot mode, open command prompt from within fastboot folder, issue the following commands:

fastboot flash recovery "filename.img"

(the exact filename, minus the talking marks)

fastboot erase cache

fastboot reboot-bootloader

You're lucky you didn't brick your phone by flashing the wrong recovery to it. Make sure you only flash things that are intended for our device. Our device main page is here:

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1538

Bookmark that page and make sure you stay within our forum. Don't use other Android sites either, they don't properly distinguish between phone models which can lead to bricks.

Hi Everyone,

Have just seen ' timmaaa's' advice - will try this next.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Madcat8686:
You are getting a bootloop because being S-On requires you to extract the boot image and flash that in bootloader mode.

You will need to extract the boot.img file from the Rom you want to use and put it into your fastboot folder. Next you will need to execute:

That will make the boot loop go away and you will be able to boot up the Rom. In the future you should get S-Off. It makes flashing Roms way easier. Not to mention making running Ruus less risky.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You're probably corrupted your partition. Try this command before flashing the new recovery:

fastboot erase recovery

A side question "Are we likely to see any Kit Kat ROMs with Sense 5 (or higher)" in the medium to long term?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Madcat8686:
There are several Sense 5 Roms available in the development section right now. Sense 6 is currently being developed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
KitKat ROMs are only available in aosp form for our device. You can have Sense 5 but only as high as the 4.2.2 Android version. We might get a port of a higher Android version, but to be honest I wouldn't hold your breathe.

Hi All,

Now that I have the TWRP custom recovery on my phone I have attempted to install the ViperXL ROM twice (without success), and whilst the aroma installer appears to have worked fine my phone is now in a boot loop (every few seconds the HTC logo comes up, then the phone powers down, HTC logo again, etc...).

If I hold the power button down for 10 seconds the three buttons (left arrow, home, and switch apps) at the bottom blink three times and the phone appears to turn off, however within a few more seconds the phone just starts up again.

Any further help here will be greatly appreciated.

All working now!

Thanks everyone,

I am now a proud ViperXL user; had to enter fastboot using a bit of finger / thumb trickery (and a lot of persistence - was a little concerned that the phone was just going to keep turning itself on and off constantly until the battery ran out!). Used the HTC One X (HOX) Android boot.img flashing using fastboot instructions to flash the boot.img file (these instructions were very simple to follow), then re-installed the ROM, and now everything is working fine.

Once again thanks to everyone for the assistance.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
There really isn't much trickery involved. Hold down the volume down rocker (and don't let go) while the phone is boot looping, and it will go into bootloader. Most people go wrong by trying to press volume down and power at the same time, and/or letting go of vol down to early.

This will virtually always work if the screen comes on, with the rare exception of your vol down rocker being physically broken.

When you need to input text, you can click on the icon at the bottom of the screen to bring up the text entry area. You can tap on the little triangle beside the icon to bring up a window to select between block recognizer, keyboard, letter recognizer, phone pad, and transcriber.

On my 8125, it is taking a long time for this window to pop up after tapping the triangle. It is taking a few seconds, when it used to take maybe 1/3 of a second. It is quite frustrating!

Why is is doing this? And what can I do to speed it up like it used to be?

This has happened before. It was when I first got the phone and was installing apps and games on it. One day I noticed this slow behavior, and I ended up doing a hard reset and slowly adding my apps and registry tweaks back on one at a time to see what would cause the problem. Well, nothing caused the problem and it stayed fast for a long time.

Then yesterday I updated to Summiter's latest ROM and started adding my apps back on. This text entry type window was working just fine through most of it, and suddenly as I'm finally finished putting everything back to where I want it, this problem is back!

Help! I don't want to do another hard reset already!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] pat12:
I have the same problem, I use transcriber as SIP but since it takes so long to show up when you click the triangle, I just put a shortcut to transcriber.exe in the start menu folder. So, I just use the Programs menu, it's much faster
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] maxh:
I like to switch between letter recognizer, keyboard, and transcriber. I suppose I could put links to them in the start menu, but it would be so much nicer if I could just figure out why it's being so slow!

Any ideas?

This is supposedly caused by a bug in the OS. I use an application called 'Smartskey'. There is a setting that talks about reboot notification for a Wizard. This affects the time it takes for the input method choice popup-. See the text about it from the manual:

REMOVEDUPSDDAEMON=0 (0 or 1)

Only for HTC Wizard. The function is originally not related to SmartSkey. The HTC Wizard contains a program called sddaemon that is the voice command program for wizard. It contains a bug that it will automatically create one more

notification for each reboot. It will make the program slower and slower after a number of reboot and overflow the notification system. To set this to 1 will automatically remove the duplicated notification event. If you are a user of Wizard, it is suggested to set it to 1. The flag is harmless for other machines.

I cannot remember where I downloaded the program, but if you search this forum, you should be able to find a copy.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] funy:
i dont use smartskey, so is it something else causing my slowdown? i dont understand.

is that a reg key your talking about there?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] mrschwarz:
Smartskey isn't the problem. It solves a problem with the OS. zIt appears that every time the device restarts, it makes a record in a log file somewhere. Eventually, the log is so full, it takes longer and longer to pull up the menu. I don't recall all of the details, but I found it here. You can probably search to find more information.

The setting I put in the post is a smartskey.ini setting to resolve the problem.

A bit difficult...

Hi! :)

First, you're a kind person to answer to somebody who doesn't know the words "hi" or "hello". ;) lol

And yes, i guess that somebody is working on it, and i think that it is a bit difficult to unlock the bootloader and to make a good working ROM, for the reason that the Xperia M makes mistakes with internal and external SDcards. It makes sometimes a big mess with the 2 SDcards... :D Not so funny, in fact...

By the way, i have many difficulties to mount it on my computer which runs with Linux. Impossible to make my Linux recognize the mobile phone, and i have tried many ways to do it... then i just see the solution to install Windows... and i don't like to think about doing it... i HATE Microsoft! :P lol Grrrrrr!

Then, the conclusion is that the person who will find solutions for this phone, will deserve the title of kings of developers! :D

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sanke1:
If we flash 4.4.2 KDZ and do factory reset, it will still show as ROOTED.

The only way around this problem is to downgrade to 4.2.2 and do a factory reset. Now the download mode will show UNROOTED. Then take 4.4.2 OTA. After OTA firmware update is complete, it keeps the UNROOTED status unchanged.

If anyone has managed to Unroot 4.4.2 using traditional offline flashing please report.

Just got my Moto X yesterday and I have had a bunch of problems unlocking the bootloader and rooting it. As of right now, everything is done, bootloader unlocked perfectly. However, when I flashed twrp and tried to go into recovery via fastboot, I just get the TEAMWIN logo with the blueish and black background for a few minutes then it'll reboot normally or it'll just stay at the logo until I turn off the phone. I've searched the forms all over and couldnt find anything relateable. Do note, I used the twrp263.img version instead of the twrp-2.6.3.1-ghost-4.4.img ive seen posted all around xda so I'm not sure if that matters, just giving every detail.

[General Questions and Answers] wiiffler:
Hello.

Title is pretty self explanatory.

When booted into recovery mode, after CWD has been installed, I am able to do 1 backup. Why?

Because when I am finished it asks those 2 questions:

no matter what I answer, it undoes the phones root.

And when I re-install the root it overiddes CWD and it goes away (is that normal? or a problem?)

Possible reason why it might be doing so: Since I have a S3: 1747m, Rom Managers dosent offer the proper drivers for CWD.

What I do? I select a s3 model, boot it up in Recovery mode and then "install zip" the correct CWD version I need.

After thats done I go to reboot and am asked those 2 questions:

1. ROM may flash Stock recovery on boot. Fix?

2. Root access possibly lost. Fix?

NO MATTER WHAT I ANSWER, I LOSE MY ROOT. Why does it happen?

Now, I reboot my phone, and once I launch it into Recovery again (to make sure I am in the correct version of CWD.) (version match, different UI)

I'll have the chance to do one more backup, before being asked the same questions. WHY?!

If anyone might suspect what the problem is, let me know!!
