[Q] Stuck at the X, move on to a new phone?

I recently bought this Nexus off eBay and it worked fine.
Owner said it had problems with the SD card, but it seemed to be working, for they said it wouldnt read, when it does.
Anyway, it had cyanogen mod 6.1.1 on it, and I hate the setup...so i changed roms. That was a success, but when i flashed a sense rom thru clockwork(most updated) it said:
E:Error in /sdcard/N1Sensation_v0.4.zip
(Status 0)
Installation aborted.
Now, when i flash any roms, whether it says it installed correctly, it doesnt change anything. Now it's stuck at the 4 color x with the unlock icon. Any advice is good advice!
In my hboot, it says:
*** UNLOCKED ***
NEXUSONE PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.35.0017
MICROP-0b15
TOUCH PANAL-SYNT0103
RADIO-5.00.00.04
Oct 12 2010, 14:33:16
HBOOT
Etc. Etc. Etc.
Thanks for any help!
Edit: I fixed the issue with why it failed, was my fault, didnt partition the card...but i was flashing a stock rom and it said complete and when i rebooted it stayed at the X and then powered off. Since then has never turned on. I don't know what to do. Nothing will turn it back on. I have a universal charger that charges the battery and it said the battery is full. I need help!

Ok lets see here try this plug in the charger then pull the battery place it back in wait a few seconds and repeat until you see the splash screen (the static X). This could get the phone to at least boot.
But just to check did you flash a radio in all that stuff??

That did not work. I work at a cellphone repair store, but im yet to open it up. But i flashed a sensation rom...

After then i got stuck on the X
Then i used... well i cant find the link, but it's PureGoogleMod.
From what I saw, there was no radio or kernal being flashed. I just know i flashed a rom, it said completed, then went to the X, rebooted, but never turned on. And ive tried other batteries.

Try flashing CM7. Also...before you do...you may want to search for a format.zip from a member named temasek. It'll wipe your phone...clean. Real clean. Then flash CM7. try that.
also....those sense roms sometimes take at least 5 minutes to boot. Sometimes it'll stay on the X screen for 5 minutes or it'll stay on the bootanimation screen for 5 minutes. FYI.

I can't flash anything. Phone wont react to anything anymore. Hoping one of my family members can fix it. But if I get it on I will try that.
I am pretty sure i waited long enough, but who knows. I didn't partition my card, which may have been the problem. And also it was S-On....which i thought was odd when it had a custom firmware.

Unlock bootloader. Flash recovery. Boot into recovery. Wipe everything. Flash rom.

Why do you guys keep suggesting software stuff when it's probably a hardware problem he can't get the phone to boot up so he can't do any of that.
Although there is one thing I want you to try before your family take a crack at it to take it apart and what not, it's a long shot but it's your last chance if it's software. Hold down trackball and press power keep holding trackball for another 5-10 seconds (better to long then to short) then connect it to the computer via USB you could see a popup notification saying that it's looking for driver software if you do then it's software and we need to reflash everything and might need to unlock the bootloader. Now if you don't see a popup notification I would still go check in the device manager and check for an unidentified device probably in other (it should be extracted so that you can see it).
If this doesn't work then sorry but I think it's a brick

Because in order to find out if its truly a hardware problem you need to try every software fix first.
Op mentioned nothing of trying fastboot as well. Software fix is free hw is not. That is why we suggest software fixes.

Let me remind you guys, THE PHONE WONT TURN ON AT ALL REGARDLESS OF WHAT I DO. I can post a YouTube video to show everything. It'd be very random for it to be hardware because it just turned off and will not turn back on. If there is any software like an RUU out there, that would help, if not, ill have to buy a bottom piece and warranty it out. But I'd feel bad because that isn't the right thing to do.
I don't expect you guys to fix it and I and very thankful of your help! But the phone won't turn on at all. So telling me to flash roms doesn't work. Imagine it as flashing a rom with the battery out of your phone. I am wondering if there's an adb way or something to get it to turn on and restore to stock?
With all that said, any help is amazing help and I am very grateful that this isn't a post I have to bump! Thank you so much, when I go on the PC, ill thank the helpful posts

Then it is a brick if it won't turn on at all. The entire getting stuck at the x thing confused me to think it was powering on.

You have me confused sir, I'm not quite sure what good it is your looking for a RUU for. If the phone truly won't turn on/go past the X screen and you have it on a charger with no LED notification, then the phone is bricked. When you said you flashed a Sensation rom, I truly hope you just meant a Sense rom. If you can still get to the bootloader screen then you are not bricked and should retry everything from scratch.

[Q] I made the mistake of trying OTA on my rooted phone, how do I fix it?

I understand it's a stupid newbie mistake. I guess I've learned the hard way. I have an HTC One that I purchased unlocked which I then rooted and installed the Google Edition HTC One ROM onto. Everything was cool until today when they rolled out the 4.3 update, which I stupidly proceeded to download. Now my phone turns on, but after the "HTC quietly brilliant" screen it just shuts off, then will soon on its own turn on again and it will just be an endless cycle. I DO have access to recovery. So:
Phone turns on, then shuts off, then will repeat endlessly by itself
HBOOT is accessible if I hold Volume Down
Recovery is accessible (I have CWM 6.0.3.1)
Please tell me there is a way to fix this Even if I have to wipe my phone.

Couple of options. If you have an OTG cable, load a Rom (maybe the one you used originally) onto a flash drive and install it from there. Or, use ADB push and sideload a Rom onto your device. Or use an RUU for your phone....

What happened? What happened is timmy here fuxored his /system and/or recovery partition. NBD. If you can get to the bootloader, you can fix it. I'd suggest googling "M7SPR RUU" and going from there.

[Q] HTC One ruined

Hello.
I don't know if this is the right section ( and if it isnt I deeply apologize)
I think I ruined my HTC One last night though not sure.
I had it unlocked and with Trickdroid on it.
Then I wanted kitkat, did everything by the book, the ROM installed and everything. Everything was good until the first restart.
Since then, it kept on trying to restart. It attempts to enter in recovery mode ( I can see the pink text for few sec) and then is rebooting over and over, in the same sequence:
- wants to reboot but can't
- attempts to enter recovery but falls back into rebooting
I tried EVERYTHING to try and fix it but I think I've ruined it
While holding volume down and power button I can go into recovery ( I think) but no matter what I chose, it follows the same pattern. Attempting, failing, starting over.
Is there anything I can do ?
PLEASE help, Im without a phone..

Yup wrong forum.
Seems like you have to root your device again and flash revovery etc.
Look at the HTC One Forum for help

[Q] HTC One m7_ul doesn't start

Good morning XDA participants.
I have a very big problem and I think that I converted my phone is just a paperweight.
After a lot of tries of change s-on to s-off, I was not able to do it. For some reason, I think that was a little tired and boring, I did something and now my phone doesn't load OS. Just turn on and stay on the HTC screen logo, I can enter to recovery but after try factory reset the problem continues.
Could be possible recover the phone? Or I have to forget that Will work again...it's just have 3 weeks

as long as your bootloader is unlocked and you have TWRP recovery, you can push, sideload or USB-OTG a ROM onto your phone
