Hi,
I've been following this guide :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551581
to flash this rom :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562603
However, I'm stuck at :
1. Check your CID using fastboot getvar cid and MID using fastboot getvar mid
I've already unlocked my bootloader via htcdev.com and I didn't see my CID.
So I decided to take a risk and continue on, 3. Place PJ46IMG.zip on your SD card.
I did and rebooted and no instructions popped out. Its just the normal bootloader.
So what am I doing wrong exactly ?
EDIT: Can someone also tell me the proper process to installing a custom rom ?
For example do I need to install a specific firmware first, unlock bootloader, install cwm, root or wipe ?

Hi I have edited on your phone ROM and would like it to return everything to its original condition original ROM. pls help me
What have you done? HTCDEV unlocked and then rooted?
Bootloader i have unlocked and root and Flash ROM Android Revolution HD, And i can back original ROM without root
Read through THIS, lower half of first post is more relevant to you

Edit: Of course you will need to have the relevant RUU for your phone (unbranded is x.xx.401.x, branded is x.xx.PHONE_PROVIDERS_ID_NUMBER.x), which should be able to be found in THIS thread.
Flashing steps are:
1. boot into fastboot and connect to PC
2. flash stock recovery
3. relock bootloader: fastboot oem lock
4. run RUU from PC, phone will need to be in fastboot
Hello guys.
I'm following this thread to install JB on my HOX.
Currently my phones cid is HTC__102
I almost crashed my phone yesterday as I was stuck in the boot loop, had to use adb to push ICS and install ICS back.
Now I noticed my HBOOT is 0.43, the thread says to download one of the file. I have no idea which one
Tried all 3 all 3 crashed, I'm not sure what happens.
These to run untill I get to this place (see attachment 0.png).
ruu_endeavor_u_ics_40_htc_europe_1.29.401.11_radio_1.1204.105.14_release_260491_signed_c9d22.exe and RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.17.401.2_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_274900_signed.exe exit with an error of "UNKNOWN ERROR" (see attachment 1.png)
and
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.29.401.7_Radio_1.1204.104.14_release_259281_signed.exe crashes and doesn't do anything.
One thing though, the phone is Unlocked, not sure if that matters and I'm using windows 8, but I run all the software in compatibility mode.
Thank you and sorry for my bad spelling.
You need to relock bootloader.

And you need to install the Stock Recovery, for 1.29 ROM, link is provided in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594819
you cant downgrade ruu
Now I'm stuck in a loop between power up and hboot.
The phone says "Re-Locked" and won't load the ROM.
Oh the thread I was speaking of is : /showthread.php?t=1562603
Could someone explain me the steps I should make.
for example download this, update this, install this then this, rom and voila.
I'm totally lost here.

Now I see, you have 2.17 already, so you have to flash 2.17 minimal.
Btw. strange that you still have hboot 0.43 and a 2.17 base?
You cannot flash the 1.29, so you have to flash:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.17.401.2_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_274900_signed
So, you have relocked
Edit: You could try to RUN the RUU when device is in Fastboot without going back to stock recovery, cause it's in the RUU, but if that doesn't work... follow next steps.
Btw. Goto fastboot while unplugged and plugin usb cable after entered fastboot, you should see usb appear.
1. Next you need Stock Recovery:
for stock recovery you could run the above RUU, after you donwloaded it, but not install it.
After you run the RUU, it unpacks to the following directory:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Temp\{some guid}\{some other guid}\
Get the rom.zip form that directory and in there you can find the Stock Recovery
You can flash recovery through Fastboot using the following command:
fastboot flash recovery [name of the retrieved recovery].img (you need to place it in the fastboot folder.
2. If you have Stock Recovery, Go into Fastboot mode and flash the RUU (2.17).

Also i download a RUU which is 1.26.707.4 htc asia i downloaded that ruu because JBFWflasher told me that was my ruu so please help me
Well if you're S-OFF then just go to fastboot and type in cmd 'fastboot oem writecid 11111111' to give yourself superCID.
Then afterwards, download the latest firmware off the firmware thread in development section and flash it.
I swear, the instructions are located almost everywhere.
Then flash your ROM.
I'm aware that its everywhere as i said above i just don't know where to start everyone has a way of doing it so i got lost thank you sincerely for answering me but cid 0_44 can be changed into super cid? i checked in JBFWflasher and under option 4 there is a option there which says change to super cid 111111 but it says i need to be s-off to do so and i'm s on

Okay go here:
Download the latest version of ARHD, extract the boot.img file into fastboot folder.
Then:
[26.11.2012] Jelly Bean firmware collection for different Carriers ID (CID)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376
Download the firmware.zip with hboot 1.36, it's listed under: x.xx.707.x - Asia WWE (World Wide English)
Then, copy it to your fastboot folder.
Then make sure you nanodroid backup everything.
Then enter fastboot.
Type: 'fastboot oem lock' to relock your bootloader
Type: 'fastboot oem rebootRUU' to reboot to a place where you can flash the new firmware
Type: 'fastboot flash zip firmware.zip' to flash the new firmware onto your phone, it might take a couple of tries!
After finished, if it didn't return to bootloader screen, type: 'fastboot reboot-bootloader'
Re-unlock bootloader using 'fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin' (Make sure you have the file)
Flash the boot.img file
Go to recovery and flash the ROM
Or you could use the JB FW Easy Flasher to make it simpler
will try it now and post back my results

hello,
I seem to mess up all the guides of flashing JB.
My HOX has cid HTC_044 , HBOOT 0.43, currently running Revolution 9.7.2, recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0 recovery.
is there an easy/direct way to upgrade the HBOOT and the Rom to Revolution v18 ?
Also I tried that video tutorial but I got lost with all the Unlocking and Relocking.
I have a disability and pressing multiple buttons not easy for me so I'll really appreciate a step by step explanation.
Thank You.
Do you know fastboot commands to interact with the pc to the hox ?
If yes you can put the phone in fastboot usb mode with the fastboot command from pc
Fastboot reboot bootloader
or
Adb reboot bootloader
The phone should restart to the bootloader, then you can type the commands
Fastboot getvar version-main
And
Fastboot oem readcid
Post the results here please....

Oke download this RUU
http://www.htcruu.com/securekey.php...Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_278245_signed.exe
put the phone in fastboot usb mode again and do this command
Fastboot oem lock
This will relock the bootloader and give a warning sign, that's normal,keep the phone in fastboot usb mode and execute the RUU from the pc WITH admin rights !
This will bring the phone back to stock ICS android 4.0.4 from there you can upgrade officially to JB !
Note : this will wipe the entire phone including sdcard !!!

That's correct but i wanted to let him update official because when he updated to JB he can make a clean nandroid backup of his JB stock rom, this way its easier to go back to stock when he wants that, or when he has to update again
Thank you all!
Guess it worked ?
I don't really know if TRWP Recovery works with all CRs, but since I use it instead Clockworckmod, I find TRWP better, more intuitive and complete...

I only used CWM recovey .... but whoever whant's TWRP recovery (basics are the same)
http://db.tt/aYgw4fuh
Update:
No, it didn't work!
That tool sent me to a link to download RUU but I don't know which one...
I tried RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.17.707.3_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_278245_signed but it failed, my phone didn't even reboot.
As far as I know you need to reflash the stock recovery.img and boot.img provided in the rom.zip before the RUU will work.
I don't know if this is the same scenario, so I'm just throwing in a suggestion.

RUU will automatically flash all of those. All you need to have is locked bootloader.
Are you sure?
First I tried it normally with relocked bootloader, and it didn't work.
Second time I read somewhere about flashing recovery.img and boot.img from the rom.zip that appears somewhere in AppData when you start the RUU. relocked bootloader again afterwards.
Suddenly the RUU worked, so... I could have done something that I didn't know of that I was doing it, or it was simply because of the recovery.img and boot.img.
I got my HTC One X for about 3 weeks now, so I'm not really experienced or whatever. Just really curious about how Android devices work, since I'm also a 'barely-passed-noob-phase developer'.
so, how do I re-lock it?
and what is the right RUU for me?
The RUU Mr Hofs provided is the right one.
He also told that 'fastboot oem lock' is the command to get the bootloader relocked again.
What I did was:
(Starting off with an unlocked bootloader via htcdev)
Go into fastboot mode (which is done by holding volume-down and pressing power button, or running the adb command 'adb reboot bootloader') and run the following 5 commands:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem lock
Run the RUU.
The boot.img and recovery.img for the RUU that Mr Hofs specified are in here: http://db.tt/lpQ8d3Vw
Yet I still don't know if this is the correct procedure for it to make the RUU run normally, but this is all I did to get mine working.
Good luck .
All info is correct !!! The ruu is correct and you ONLY need to RELOCK the bootloader ! The fastboot command is mentioned numerous times now
And please right click the ruu to select,
RUN WITH ADMINISTRATOR RIGHTS !
and please put the phone in FASTBOOT USB before running the ruu !
will try it.
Thanks!
but how do I root it again after?
is there a rooting guide for HOX JB ?
sorry for the stupid question..
a friend rooted my phone tellng me how good it is and now he says hes wiped the os and root off so if anyone can help i would be gratefull
I have tried tried to find the right ruu and use all in one tools but it says 12 signiture verification error
please. if you could point me in the right direction
Okay, I'll do my best to guide you through this. We'll start with the unlock.bin that would have been obtained through the HTC developers website. Do you have it?

Did you relock the bootloader (this is required to RUU if s-on)?
If you did, than its not the right RUU.
Restore the nandroid if available (and this should always be the first thing that is done after installing custom recovery).
Another approach, if the bootloader is still unlocked, is to put a ROM on a removable SD card (using a computer and card reader), insert into the phone, and just flash the ROM from TWRP.
What CID?
What hboot number?
S-on or s-off?
my cid is 02-001 and i tried loads of ruu's but signiture fail
relocked
hboot / 3.16.0.0000
s-on

You need to re unlock the bootloader, install proper TWRP, restore stock 1.54.206.10 backup and install its stock recovery and do OTA to the latest before you can install most of the Sense based custom ROM on XDA.
Give me a few minutes, I'll put up link to download the backup in this thread :

You can't just run any RUU. The RUU needs to match your CID. I don't think O2 has RUUs. So you can run RUUs until the world ends, and they still won't work.
Basd on that, I suggest following the previous comment to unlock the bootloader again. From there, flash TWRP, then flash a ROM or stock nandroid (either put it on a removable SD or use adb push).

It's not easy to find a ROM for hboot 3.16.0000, there are some but it's bit tricky to find one. Maybe someone else can help you with custom ROM.
I can only help with TWRP backup - and I already put up link in the thread that I gave earlier.
So it's up to you how you want it.

Try a 4.4.2 ROM (there are a couple in the Development section - but as mentioned not many). You'll have trouble with anything newer, due to outdated firmware (hboot, etc.).
