Done exactly as you said...

When powerdown from bootloader menu, red LED turned on before I disconnect USB cable.

When cable was disconnected red LED stays ON.

I tried Power+VolDn - nothing

Long press Power after 10sec turn red LED off.

Tried again Power+VolDn to get into bootloader but without success.

I disconnect the battery and will try another round...
[HTC One X] Thant:
You don't do the things as I say. Read again point 6

Press and hold FIRST THE VOLUME DOWN then PRESS and HOLD THE POWER BUTTON until you go in bootloader

And why you don't disconnect the cable from PC and with the volume down go to Power Down option in bootloader and press Power button to confirm this will turn off your phone
[HTC One X] freedom74:
As I wrote eariler, I've done exactly as you said.

I know the combo for entering bootloader and I know it suppose to be first VolDn and then Power.

My Power+VolUp in previous post does not show the order I pressed the key. Sorry for me not being clear enough.

I am disconnecting, but since you wrote

I was follow that order, first powerdown from menu and then disconnect.

In that case red LED turn on before I was able to disconnect the USB cable.

I will try to first disconnect USB cable so that phone goes back from FASTBOOT USB into just FASTBOOT and then power down from menu.

And then VolDn+Power to enter bootloader and recovery.

My battery drop to 3.700mV so I need to recharge it a while.

p.s.

Thanks for your help and time.

[HTC One X] freedom74:
Well, maybe it must but it won't :D

I tried 5 different recoveries and versions and all end up with same sequence

htc brilliant screen, vibration, black screen and again

htc brilliant screen, vibration, black screen and stays like this
[HTC One X] Thant:
try relock the bootloader and unlock it again then flash again recovery and try.:eek:
[HTC One X] freedom74:
fastboot oem lock

just gives me three dots . . . and stays that way
[HTC One X] Thant:
and the bootloader say relocked or not?
[HTC One X] freedom74:
NOT

still says UNLOCKED

[EDIT]

After trying few more time I get

and RELOCKED....

Huh, everything need to be done multiple times :)

Now I need to flash unlock token from HTC...
[HTC One X] freedom74:
bootloader relocked,

then flashed back unlock_code.bin

flashed twrp2.8.0.0, PhilZ6.19.3, CWM5.8.4

cache erased after flash and powered down

restarted to bootloader and choose recovery

htc "quietly brilliant" vibration and black screen.............................................................................................. ... . .................... ... . . . ...

I tried even stock recovery...

it restarted 3 times and stuck at htcqb screen

:silly:
[HTC One X] freedom74:
Something new happend...

After flashing and trying recoveries over and over again at one point I got to the Teamwin splash screen but

unfortunately it stayed that way for some time and then screen turned black but with backlight on.

I managed to see splash screen twice. Third time it was corrupt at the bottom...

Maybe storage or partitions are corrupt :confused:

Is there a way to repartition or reformat the phone?

Need to recharge the battery and keep trying :silly:
[HTC One X] Hausa333:
my fix

I had the same problem yesterday I deleted my whole OS and storage and I couldn't even boot into recovery.

here is my FIX :

you need unlocked bootloader, WinDroid universal toolkit, Elegancia ROM !!!

1. bootloader in fastboot-usb

2. flash TWRP recovery from WinDroid, from PC cmd.exe "fastboot erase cache" , "fastboot reboot-bootloader"

3. only 1 rom worked for me ... Elegancia rom, you can google it.

4. flash elegancia rom kernel.

5. try to get into recovery mode and from there connect your htc one x to PC via USB and then your storage should open ON PC.

6. Put the .zip from Elegancia rom into the phone storage, then erase cache and dalvik-cache from TWRP recovery.

7. reboot your phone into recovery again and install elegancia.zip that's it ... this is how I fixed my HTC ONE X+ :)

Hope that will help you. !

OH AND TO GET TO YOUR STORAGE ON PC

INTO RECOVERY GO TO MOUNT AND DISABLE MTP, WAIT 5-10 sec THEN ENABLE IT AGAIN and you should get pop-up to view the storage of your phone . !!!
[HTC One X] freedom74:
Thanks but I don't have htc one X+

just X :)

Since only TWRP 2.8.0.0 get me some results I stick with it and after many restarts, reflashing, erasing cache etc. I manage to get into recovery

It stuck many times inside recovery but finally I made it to flash CM11 ROM and boot.img from it with fastboot.

I wiped cache and dalvik-cache and reboot...

Didn't start.... stucked at htc qb white screen.

I have no ideas anymore... I guess internal storage is somehow corrupt or something.

Could it help if I recreate partitions or try new partition layout? :(
[HTC One X] Hausa333:
ONE X

ONE X+ and ONE X it's the same only storage size is different ...

Elegancia ROM is what you need only that one worked for me just try the steps that I gave you !!!! CM11 won't work in that situation... Also you must get 2.8.5.0 TWRP recovery it works perfectly for me you shoul try it.
[HTC One X] freedom74:
Thanks for your help but I would like to someone that have HTC One X confirms that he flashed HTC One X+ ROM.

I see no difference in flashing any ROM and boot.img and EleganceROM
[HTC One X] nogotaclue:
not only storage size, the processor is different too, the one x+ uses a 1.7ghz and the one x uses a 1.5ghz

And you are wise to disregard the previous post, only rom's made for the oneX will work.

As you have gotten as far as recovery I would suggest you try flashing the rom and boot image of Android Revolution hd 33.1 from the android development thread.
[HTC One X] freedom74:
Will do.

Tried so far with CM11 and CM12 ROMs with their boot.img but with no luck

Waiting for battery to recharge because it droped to 30%...

I must admit that I suspect some hardware problem.

Generally, I must try and retry few times to get into recovery and some time I even get garbled TeamWin splash screen

but yesterday I've noticed that phone work better when it's cooled down.

How I discovered it? The phone was sitting close to the window and it's cold outside. When I tried to get into recovery it worked immediately. I tested my theory and it proved to be right. :eek:

I will try few more ROMs and kernels but at the end if nothing helps maybe I should flash RUU update.

What the hell... :silly:
[HTC One X] nogotaclue:
I agree it does sound like hardware. Unfortunately there is no ruu available for you, you are on to high a version and bootloader and no way to revert
[HTC One X] freedom74:
Yeah, I know...

I'm just thinking... what would happened if i use RUU not suited for my version of bootloader? Permanent brick?

Or nobody tried ever before? :cool:
[HTC One X] nogotaclue:
Not a brick, just wouldn't work. And yes, many have tried
[HTC One X] freedom74:
Definately a temperature problem with CPU or RAM.

On the room temperature it hardly gets into recovery and never even to the boot animation.

When cooled down it gets almost always into recovery and boot into the system.

I manage to get to First Run Wizard but never passed because phone gets stucked and reboots.

Maybe some Eskimo could use it. :D

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Targaeryan:
Hey guy, so I finally decided to create a thread in case anyone has any solution for this..

So I got my brothers old m7, which he thought was dead so he moved to a m8.. I got my hands on it and it started to work.. He already had the bootloader unlocked since he was running custom ROM.. Before it "died" he put it back to stock.. After it switched on, there was an ota .707.107 which I let install.. Halfway through it kept rebooting and then entered recovery and got stuck and glitches appeared on screen. After which it died.. Then I left it for a week as I was travelling and got back and it went into bootloader.. From there I went ahead and flashed twrp and got to installing a ROM.. At first it booted to sense ROM but got stuck at "android is upgrading".. I flashed and reflashed a many many times and finally got it stable on an aosp ROM after which even sense ROMs worked.. Then I had some connection drops so a user suggested to clean wipe using the latest firmware.. So I got sunshine soff and flashed the firmware.. After this, I installed maximushd, and it got back to the same point as before, " android is upgrading" a few times but it doesn't finish and boot up but instead goes on a bootloop.. Twrp works sometimes but all the wipes work fine. I've tried insertcoin, nusense, skydragon, maximus and arhd.. All end up at android is upgrading and get stuck.. The odd thing is xenonhd which is aosp boots fine with gapps as well.. But I think it did reboot after like 2 hours on the ROM..

Sorry about the long post but yeah I'd like to know if anyone got any suggestions...

No problem post it when your ready :good:

It's difficult to say for sure right now but it doesn't sound like there is a major problem with the device itself.

As your s-off its worth trying an RUU and seeing how the device runs with complete Stock software. If the problem persists after using a suitable RUU there's a good chance there is some sort of hardware problem ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Targaeryan:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Nop it all looks good, I was just checking for a suitable ruu, unfortunately htc1guru.com seems to still be experiencing problems :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Targaeryan:
Ah i see. Actually a while back I did a stock reset ROM through twrp and it booted fine running fine.. A 707 reset ROM.. This was when I was on s-on.. Was downloading 6.xxxx.707.104 ota but it was so slowwwwwwww in downloading.. Half an hour through and it was at 15% on a 15mbps connection so I got sunshine and soff to flash the latest fw.. Then insertcoin.. It was stable.. Except for the connection troubles..
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Ok well based on your mid the 707 ruu is probably the best one to try out. Although it is a jellybean ruu so you will have a lot of OTA's to install to get it up to the latest software,

http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...0-13_10-33-1150-01_release_311678_signed-exe/

Alternatively you could just flash the reset zip and flash the 6.xx.707.x firmware. This won't guarantee a complete new firmware though and If you choose this method I recommend formatting the device with twrp before flashing the rom.

In TWRP Select "Wipe" then "Format Data" you will be prompted to type yes to confirm. When that's done reboot recovery and adb sideload the Rom :good:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Targaeryan:
That's the one I flashed.. Im using Ubuntu so I used the zip actually.. Flashed through twrp.. Clean one ofcourse.. While itnwas downloading the 6xx update (which was insanely slow as mentioned before) I instead got soff and flashed the latest firmware instead.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Nop, the link I posted is an ruu not a reset zip. They are not the same thing. RUU's are flashed in the bootloader not in TWRP.

As your using ubuntu you'll want this one http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu-zip...0-01_release_312087_signed_2_4_decrypted-zip/
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Targaeryan:
Ah right my bad.. It's the full ROM right? No need to flash anything else on top..?

I'm just getting used to HTC terminology :)

Nexus stuff are pretty straight forward...
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Targaeryan:
I just realised something.. I actually have this zip.. Last week in tried to flash this when I had s-on and it didn't take (wanted to see if it would with s-on) so I went ahead with reset ROM.. I didn't look back to this.. I also had it renamed to ruu.zip so I completely forgot about it [emoji14] I'll go ahead and flash it now.. So I run this and boot and test it out.. Then I can go ahead and flash 7.xx?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
An RUU is the full package :) Stock Rom, Recovery, boot.img and Firmware. It will reset your Device back to out of the box stock (except it will remain s-off and Unlocked)

Flash it like a firmware package with fastboot

sudo fastboot erase cache
sudo fastboot oem rebootRUU
sudo fastboot flash zip name-of-zip.zip
sudo fastboot flash zip name-of-zip.zip
sudo fastboot reboot-bootloader

:good:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Targaeryan:
Lol now its deadddd, yes it flashed fine and went to bootanination where it got stuck and switched itself off. I'll leave it for a while and try to coax it to go into fastboot... Will get back to you about it :)

It was like that last time too.. When I first got it back.. But I left it to completely discharge (a few days) and I connected back to charger and could boot up with no probs (fastboot/recovery/ROM). Anyway it is in that mode now.. I'll just have to wait a while and see if I can go back to bootloader :D
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Yeah give that a try, you may get it back to the bootloader, but unfortunately it seems like the mainboard is damaged, it will probably go this way again. And eventually it will just stop working altogether. :(

[General Marketing & SEO] Digitally:
I've just published my game to Google Play Store and was thinking of purchasing some advertising or pay per install ads. Anyone has any experience using Facebook ads, Admob, appbrain or other ad networks? What would you recommend. I do not have a large budget, for a start I am planning to spend around USD100.
[General Marketing & SEO] rmyb:
No experience with ads yet. I was recommended Facebook Lookalike Audience but we'll continue on our own up until 10k users. My fear would be to get a mass of users and disappoint them. Growing 100 at a time provides a good feedback loop to improve the app. Might use the Lookalike Audience then! Good luck!
[General Marketing & SEO] adlerhn:
I am also interested in this topic. I have a free app with a paid (no ads) counterpart. I was considering using any of the services that charge per install (CPI) on the paid app. If the cost per install is lower than 70% of the price of your app, then that investment would be risk-free.

Has anyone tried something like that? Would you recommend any service in particular? (Ideally, the ones that do not require SDKs to be added to the app, I don't want to add crapware to my app).
[General Marketing & SEO] maxnexus:
The budget normally starts from $10000. I don't think $100 generates significant data and downloads to help you make further decisions considering that average CPI is about $1.
[General Marketing & SEO] geo_mojito:
Reply From A Guy That Knows The Data

Great question! While I cannot, and will not give you numbers or estimates in any shape or form, I can give you broad and general advice.

First off, I'll explain my background in a bit more detail. I worked in advertising sales for years at the top companies, and then moved into the mobile app space (I am also a secret coder by night.) I then spent two years working in the mobile app data space - providing performance data in the form of estimates for downloads/revenue. Our job was to sell our vast data sets (on every mobile app and publisher - ranked and un-ranked) which were centered around accurate estimates for downloads/revenue for any given app in every category/subcat, and country for iOS and GP. We worked with mid-market and top publishers to help them forecast how many installs they would need to purchase to reach top rank, how many organic installs they would receive at that rank, and how many installs they would have to purchase on an ongoing basis to maintain that rank.

Based on my experiences, truth be told, most publishers that are actual companies (not small indie or single shop guys)....they are buying downloads. This is not to say that strong marketing campaigns don't come with this (PR, promotions, social media, viral, cross-promotional ads to existing user base, etc.), but in some way or another, most of them will be buying ads. Here is the caveat - it is not a simple process, at all. They have analysts that know exactly how much money they make off of one download....for instance...they know that for every download on xyz game, they make $2.30, and their CPI is $1.95, thus, their actual net rev is $.35 per install. However, this is all also centered around growth potential as well...so in many cases, they need to hit the top ranks for organic growth to generate higher profit margins, so they need accurate forecasting of exactly/roughly how many installs it's going to take to get there...and if they come up short, they don't make top charts and they either have to spend more money to climb up...or they're out of budget and they've lost $$$. Basically, if you want to buy ads...you need to set realistic goals, and understand what the value of your user is...from a financial standpoint. You must know your numbers cold before even considering putting a budget towards ads.

That being said, there are a ton of ways to buy ads out there, as I'm sure you and everyone knows. However, if you do get around to doing some solid analysis on what your users are worth, and want to run some testing with a low budget...nothing to break the bank...I would A) Go with a reputable company, even if the CPI/CPA is higher than you'd like....because you want to avoid fraudulent DL's....many ad networks will turn a blind eye to this for obvious financial reasons, and B) Try Facebook....honestly, I've spoken to many smaller developers that find a fair CPI/CPA, with pretty good ROI and retention.

Hope this helps - KNOW YOUR NUMBERS AND ALWAYS LOOK TO THE DATA

~Geo_Mojito
[General Marketing & SEO] GarrettThalamus:
Some interesting data we are gathering at Thalamus.co, where we have the average CPI rates & Install Volumes of each network broken out by genre/platform/country. There are also contacts and minimum spends so should give you a good sense of what's out there.

A $100 budget is not too large, so it'd be hard to give you a definitive answer as to which network has basically no minimums (unless you want to work with a mobile self-serve DSP like PocketMath). Facebook would be a good place to start, although prices are at a premium due to high demand. I'd suggest really going all in on free methods like PR, reaching out to Bloggers, ASO, Social Fan Pages, Organic/Viral Installs, and Partnerships first.
[General Marketing & SEO] Ian_murphy:
My experience:

1) Social Networks advertising. I promoted it personally, it was tooooo long and without big results.

2) Youtube videos. Not bad, but you have to attract users to watch your videos and invite their friends to install your app.

3) Buying the marketing services in agencies. I have experience with several agencies, but App-Reviews has the best, I think.

4) Use different tools for advertising. I used AdMob, it had some success...
[General Marketing & SEO] Akhil Here:
After advertising services you can try some low budget app promotion services too. My personal choice is AppRankPRO . why is because it gives the proof of each and every install of the genuine real user and free keyword analysis services too. I think you can have a look at AppRankPRO
