Hello,
I hope that I am not asking a already existing question again, if so, please send me the link and I will follow the instructions there.
I could not find anything, so far, but I am nearly going mad after a day of trying to unbrick my phone.
So, I had CM 11 Snapshot M10 installed, the current clockworkmod, bootloader unlocked through htcdev.
Today I wanted to do a full wipe (including /sdcard, because there were tons of files which I didn't know, lately).
I don't know why, but i ended up wiping /system and /sdcard at the same time.
Now I don't have any system on the phone in order to boot and get adb or mount the phone as a USB drive, and no firmware on the phone which I could flash. I really have no idea how I can get any rom onto the phone, now...
I tried official RUUs ("Please download the RUU which fits your phone), ADB sideload with CWM ("no devices found"), ADB sideload with TWRP (same as with CWM), and now I am running out of ideas...
Does anyone have an idea how to or get ADB sideload working (USB drivers are installed on my PC, but it doesn't seem to work), or how to get a RUU wiorking (I would like to go back to the stock rom anyway, I miss sense by now), or any other way how to revive my phone?
I do have access to the bootloader, fastboot is working, and so is the recovery. Is there any information you would need?
It is an enrc2b international, no branding. CID is HTC__102.
fastboot getvar version-main outputs 2.18.401.3
I really hope that someone can help me out...

Adb sideload needs up to 5min to recognise the device.
Or you flash twrp recovery. Which has mtp support (access via windows explorer)
If crusader's suggestion didn't work then:
Try to use a different USB port. If USB 2.0 use USB 3.0 and vice versa.
If that doesn't work too, try running cmd as admin.
Last resort : install Ubuntu or any other Linux distro, and install dev tools on it (check for guides ) .. I have a similar issue to yours when it comes to windows, restarting to Linux always works for me
Thanks for the tips so far...
Waiting for ADB did not change, and my PC (Win 8.1 x64) doesn't recognise the phone with TWRP in mtp.
I reinstalled the google drivers now (had outdated ones), and I am reinstalling the htc drivers too.
Then I'll try a USB 3.0 port, if that doesn't help I will have to try Linux...
Thanks so far!

EDIT: looks like my htc drivers were simply retarded. They worked as long as the phone booted into the OS, but failed if I was in the recovery.
Reinstalling worked.
I will now flash CM11 again, does anyone have an idea how to get the RUUs working, or get Sense back in another way?
I lost my old backup with Sense

Someone posted his backup files somewhere here on the forums...
First look at your CID (found at the top of the boot loader)
And secondly you can just install sense-based ROMs like viper or revolutionHD (I think that's what it was called) .. RevolutionHD is just stock sense basically with a few performance improvements.
Thank you very much!
You really saved my day
I was able to install CM11 now, it booted.
I instantly shut it down again, though, because I will now try RevolutionHD.
Stock sense (especially the gallery and camera app, never found anything comparable so far) with a few improvements sounds just awesome.
Exactly what I was hoping for, but I never imagined someone had actuall done it!!
Downloading it now, I think this will stay my ROM for the next year(s), depending on how long my X+ will keep on working...

Dear readers,
I've got an HTC One S Ville on which CM Mod was running. I am travelling at the moment, on the other side of the world, so I really need my phone!
Once connected to wifi it asked to install 10.1.3, which I stupidly accepted.
Since then I'm stuck in a bootloop. I've tried a factory reset, which didn't help. I know reflashing boot.img might help, however I cannot connect my phone to any pc, because it doesn't recognize the device. Even a clean pc (borrowed laptop, I don't have one), on which I installed the HTC sync driver and BMP driver downloaded from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191279 doesn't show any approachable device.
I've given up and am lost in a forest of unknown tools etcetera and wish I'd never installed CM mod in the first place.
Who knows what to do?
My HBOOT is 2.15 and I can still enter the recovery console etc.
However, in the recovery console I cannot mount /sdcard, it gives an error.
Really, is it so ****ed up that no one knows an answer?
Well I assume you don't have a nandroid or you would have tried that already
At this point you either hope your phone supports otg and can mount an external flash drive or you need to install fastboot and adb and drivers or figure a way to get the sdcard to work, there really isn't a magic answer sorry
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Specs: Windows 8 64-bit. Clean and restored HTC EVO 3D. HBOOT 1.58.0000.
I have tried almost everything, but I can't get my phone recognized in fastboot mode.
I tried what was listed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39218156#post39218156

I was able to get mine working with the combo of
1. uninstalling any HTC sync or sync manager and the HTC BMP USB Driver. Basically anything HTC.
2. Install HTC sync. Not sync manager. Go to the HTC support page and you'll see both listed. If you go to the specific phone support page it might not be there. (One S doesn't have the sync program, just sync manager iirc.)
3. Download PDAnet. When installing, It'll give a warning that you already have drivers installed and ask if you want to fix them or leave as is. I chose it to fix and it went though its process and I had working drivers after that.
I think this was already suggested before. I going back and giving thanks wherever due after this post. (On the mobile app right now)
Other easy way if you're using a One S is to download Hasoon2000's All-On-One Toolkit. He's updated the drivers for windows 8. I haven't tried it yet as mine are working so haven't had the need. I would assume his tool for any of the other phones he supports would have the updated drivers too.

And the phone is recognized fine when in regular mode. Though, whenever I reboot the phone into the Bootloader using adb, it restarts into the fastboot, but it doesn't change to "Fastboot USB" and shortly after I get a "USB Device Not Recognized" on my PC and it saying something about it malfunctioning. So I get stuck on "Waiting for device" when trying out this command "fastboot oem get_identifier_token."
Any ideas? I'm trying to unlock the bootloader and root so that I can install custom ROMs and kernels.
Hey there! Sorry my fix didn't work for you.
My question is, are you running windows 8 or 8.1? The reason I ask is because the 8.1 update has broken fastboot apparently. I don't remember the last time I tried on my computer to see if fastboot still works or not since I updated to 8.1.
If you are running 8.1 windows then the guide at droid-now.com seems to have worked for many people. Go to that site and search fastboot fix windows 8.1 or you could just Google that too I guess. I would paste the link right now but my phone is being stupid and not letting me paste it ATM. :-|
If that doesn't work then you may be able get what you need done by dual booting into Ubuntu if you feel comfortable doing so. You could easily make a bootable flash drive that you could boot into just for an emergency. I just used one for about 4 days while fixing my computer after I accidentally erased the partition tables of my hard drive, trying to make a permanent installation of Ubuntu. Got it fixed BTW! ats self on back:
Keep us posted if you get it fixed or have any more questions! I hope I've been at least a little helpful. I'll try to help any more I can if possible!
Good luck!

I am running Windows 8.1, however it looks like the fix only applies to Intel motherboards connecting through USB 3.0 ports. I do have USB 3.0 ports, but my motherboard is AMD and my USB3 controller reads "VIA USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 0100 (Microsoft)." I'm not sure that the fix applies to me, unfortunately. Also, I am not connecting my phone to my PC using the USB3.0 ports.
I tried downloading the USB 3.0 Drivers for Windows 8 64-bit on the manufacturer's website for my motherboard (http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4305), but when I try to update my drivers to the ones I got from the website it says that the Microsoft provided ones are the most recent/ up to date drivers.

Be Advised, there is perhaps a way , you wil find in the link below, but be sure to use the right intel driver And only if you hae an intel chipset for usb3 , please read the comments and my bad experience :
Under win8.1/X64 that if you have(like me) an Intel 8 /c220 (or with a 4th generation like intel I7 4770k) you may encounter a big mess , and perhaps you''l have to do a clean install of win 8.1 : all the usb2 DEVICES were disconnected after the first iusb3xhc.inf driver install !! So no more usb/Bluetooth keyboard+mouse , fortunately i had an old ps2 keyboard and i was able to delete only with "tab/alt Tab/ctrl tab" keys the
"intel usb3 extensible " line in device manager, and as soon as i done a refresh (ALT+A) in device manager the previous driver(Microsoft) was reinstalled by win 8.1 andall the usb2 devices connected (mouse/keyb/hub etc)
http://plugable.com/2012/12/01/windo...#comment-19066
see there there's in the last comments at the bottom , Andrew(tks to him!)a link + modified drivers for intel8/c220)
and for me it worked mouse/keyB were functional during all the process
next step check the fastboot adb is working now
Here you go... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2061435
A later post I made (I havent updated the OP, shame on me...) is a link to some universal drivers from CWM that works fantastic! - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40108463#post40108463
Before trying this I would goto your device manager and right click on the currently installed drivers and uninstall them before installing the drivers again.
Hope that helps. I am using the link found in that second link and fastboot and adb works perfect. Also, while you can boot into fastboot, stock 1.58 will not let you run a lot of fastboot commands and will need to flash a different hboot.
Hello friends at XDA!
I need some help. I have a Tmobile M7 HTC One. I have TWRP 2.7 running just fine. I have been able to flash a few ROM's using just that. I now want to install Kitkat GPe and it seems to require S-Off or else I get stuck in a bootloop. For what it's worth, I have Hboot 1.44. The phone has developer mode turned on. And it has USB debugging turned on.
I made such a mess that I formatted the whole device and had to flash a new ROM via USB OTG. It's back in working order now... but, not with the ROM I want. Currently running the newest stable Cyanogen Mod.
I have attached the phone to a Windows 7 and Windows 8 computer. Neither of them will recognize the phone.
On the Win7 machine, I had HTC Sync installed and closed. I also installed Squabbi's Toolkit and attempted to install the drivers from it. When I click the HTC Drivers button, nothing happens. I have tried connecting to adb through the tooklit and turning S-off... but, they all return some version of the Error: Device Not Found message.
On the Win8 machine, there was no HTC software, so I installed Squabbi's kit. I pressed the HTC Drivers button and it said it had installed new hardware... but, again, ADB won't connect.
I, frankly, don't care about ADB or s-off, as I've never needed them before. I just want to install 4.4 GPe. If I can do that without S-off, please point me in that direction. If I can turn S-off directly from the phone without ADB, please point me in that direction. And if I really need ADB to work, please help!
I'm almost certain this solution is already posted somewhere... and I'm just not able to find it... sorry to be a drag if that's the case. Either way, I'd be happy to reward (paypal) the person/people who help me get this resolved. I'm thinking like $10...
Thanks everyone!
hello dear developers,
have a little problem with my international hox+
i was trying to flash a custom (aokp4.4/cm11) rom on my device using the all-in-one tool by hasoon and manual adb/fastboot commands.
everything worked fine unlocking done, twrp recovery done but now theres the problem.
when booting in the recovery adb devices only puts out an empty device list. i guess it is a driver problem since i rarely manage to get it running by randomly deleting and reinstalling drivers, htc sync, google drivers... i am searching now for days to solve this but no "solution" helped yet. i think the problem is that the device is recognized as htc mtp device. in the occasions i got the adb to run properly it was shown as htc device or my htc or something like this.
i cant boot in the normal OS since i already flashed the boot.img and wiped the phone but i can boot in recovery (which is btw twrp v2.3.3.0 so not the newest one but apparently that one should work better when installing roms) and bootloader.
pls help me i am getting really frustrated =(
Lukas
Edit:
important to mention might be that fastboot devices in fatboot mode works perfectly fine and gives out the number. only when switching to adb it changes drivers or something and it doesnt work =(
hello.
i think i have already tried everything to get fastboot on my pc find my device, but no luck.
I've got an old laptop with usb 2.0 + windows 8.1 x64 Pro and the same OS on my PC with usb 3.0 (according to some of threads, my CPU is i7 4770k and my MOBO is MSI Z87-G45).
I use my HTC Desire X every day and it is simply slow. I cannot try every ROM cause of need to flash boot.img. And i Dont have any idea how to get the fastboot recognize my device....
Maybe someone have some time to help mi wlak through this 'issue' idiot friendly? I'm really confused and i dont have any idea what to do.
my hboot is 1.25.** JB. S-ON. I have installed TWRP recovery.
:crying: halp
EDIT:
SOLVED. Windows 7 FTW.
Also had this issue, quite frustrating as no drivers seemed to work for me, got if fixed now though (no need to go back down to win7)

Installed a HTC sync like program named PDAnet, and updated the drivers from that program, once in fastboot mode device is recognized in pdanet and in a command prompt (adb). this only worked on a usb2.0 port though.
(didn't bother replacing usb3.0 drivers as suggested elsewhere as this has caused big issues for me before.)
