HTC One X Stuck at Cyanogenmod 9 Load Screen

[Crbailey36]

I have an ATT HTC One X and it was rooted and unlocked. I went to install Cyanogenmod 9 and everything went fine so i thought. Now my phone is stuck at the Cyanogenmod 9 loading screen. what can i do to fix my phone. I am new at this so any and all help is VERY welcome.

Can you get back into recovery? If so you can restore your backup (you did make a backup first, RIGHT?) and try again. Or not try again.

If you do try again, redownload the ROM just in case it was a problem with the file.

First thing I would do, is just flash it again. Usually being stuck at that point is kernel related, and flashing the ROM again will flash the kernel again. Download it again and try again if the re-flash does not work.

CM9 on this phone is probably a tad early. Important stuff still listed as broken.

If still no go, restore backup. If you did not do a backup, try getting one of the other ROMs out there to load.

Most important though, is to relax. You are not bricked or in danger- just in an annoying spot.

Thanks alot for your help. I was able to get back into recovery and now everything is fine. i just went back to using CleanRom 3.1.

I love Sense 4 so I doubt I'll root anytime soon but for the original poster, how is the rooted firmware?

I have not flashed one yet, as I am support for the wife's phone, and want to get things settled before I flash. Both are rooted and unlocked in preparation though.

The ROMs out there, for the most part, are modified Sense... so you will not lose Sense. They just get rid of the ATT apps, unlock tethering/wireless tethering, add the advanced power menu. Tweaks mostly. Looks like a few have AOSP tailorings if that is your bag, CM9 is still early alpha stage, and that will be a nice option once it gets things working.

For now though, mostly tweaked Sense ROMs, which is fine. I have been looking at stock ICS for long enough, that Sense simply looks more polished. I would seriously hesitate on going to something like CM on this device, as you would lose all the cool camera features. The CM camera is feature poor by comparison. The quality of snaps might be the same, but no more taking snaps while taking a movie, or built in HDR, etc.

This link is where all the hacking is, and you can click through the ROM posts to look at the OP. Usually screenshots and feature lists so you can see what is what. Fair warning though, that reading the feature lists is a gateway to a flashing problem .
