How to update unrooted phone to 1.28 and keep old HBOOT? - HTC One X

Is it possible?

Answered by mod here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1605885
Edit:
Overlooked. Its not possible as far as i know without unlocking. It is possible without rooting though. Not advisable for said reasons.

Thanks. I was wondering if I can update without having Root/CWM.
That other thread got closed, as if there was no people who would want to keep old HBOOT while updating the rest.

Yeah, makes no sense why that thread was closed.

I think the all the flaming is being directed at the moron who posted a thread in the dev section telling the developers that they should stop updating roms and find root for froyo cuz "half of the people here" are stuck. Gimme a break. Sorry, kind of off topic but I'm still venting.

This cracked me up. One of many reasons I keep my mouth shut since I'm not a developer.

NO.​
Seriously, please search or look at the pinned threads next time, never mind that this is in the wrong section.
Seems to me some people need to get out and get themselves some instead of being upset over dopey questions.
If you find yourselfgetting p.o.ed and losing sleep over questions being asked about a phone? You're not right in da head. lol

Why would you need to vent or flame to a person who really will have no impact on telling devs what to do?
BTW... I love it when people post this question fresh for the first time. Half the time I think they are doing it to get a rise out of the people with no penises.
Maybe someone found root, they just want to see how people piss and wine about what we can't have yet, relaxe people! it's coming.

technically you're in the wrong section, but since i have a soft-spot for noobies, i'll help.
you need to look in the development section and(if you are already rooted) install one of the many 2.2 froyo roms. this is your best bet. good luck!

I wasn't worried it would affect the developers. But myself and the other mob of people felt the need to respond to a post that disrespectful to the developers. He made it sound like they're here to do what we ask. They do this for free and don't deserve pushy demanding crap like that. I overlook a lot of stupid posts but I couldn't let that one go.

I've got a question. I know there is still no way to root 2.2 so please don't freak out. My question is does anyone know if any developer has made any ground at all or does it just not seem possible?

Go watch the sticky. The Unrevoked team is posting there every once in while.

Please Close

Figured out the answer to my question.
I assume you mean the notification bar... and there wouldn't be any way to remove it without rooting. Even with rooting I'm not sure its possible outside a completely custom ROM.
Why would you want to remove it anyway? Its a great part of android...

*edit*
I've figured it out. This thread can be closed.
What was the point of deleting your post? I hate when people do that. What if your question and subesquent discovery of the answer helps someone with the same question? Deleting your question doesn't take it off the thread, just let the original content slowly fade off into the XDA abyss like the rest of them that don't get responses.
Because it was simple overlook on my part. My launcher already had the option it was worded differently than others. So yes there is a point in closing it as there was no outside solution found by me. Plus there is another thread of the same topic posted that people can look at for a solution.

[Q] Can we install Sprint official Gingerbread update on a rooted phone?

I just rooted my Evo 4G but never installed any custom ROM yet, as I was waiting for the official Sprint update for the Gingerbread.
They just posted that the Gingerbread is coming to Sprint Evo 4G.
My question is, will I be able to install this official Gingerbread from Sprint even though I have rooted my phone?
You can install it, but you'll lose root. Wait for one of the devs here to post a rooted version first.
Hey man, just for future reference, this should be in the Q and A section. Your about to get a royal flaming session.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695878
If you install it you will lose root.....just wait cause aol of our awesome developers will have a rooted version out before you know it....most of them are just waiting on the offical release to put the final touches on the roms before putting them out

why do people keep answering questions here? quit it and people will stop doing this
Can we please post this in Q&A thread . Someone move this .
the simple answer to the original question is..
yes.
are we done?
Does it really matter where he posts his threads? The point of XDA is to help and inform others about their phones. I understand this isn't the Q&A but give me a break. Just look over it and move on.

Isn't there a question and answer section ?
Why is it that people are asking this? Has there been any announcement of the GB update?

Official jelly bean available for AT&T..

I just got a email from Samsung saying the official jb update was available. What do I need to do to go back to stock room and update to OE jelly bean?

Why take all the effort to restore the stock ROM and stock bootloader, when i'm sure someone will have a custom ROM based on the official build, possibly in a day or two?

Yup, that's what I'm waiting for. Why Odin back to stock just to have a bloated Sammy rom, when soon enough one or more of our highly respected Devs will have top notch roms for the flashing.

There's already a rom that came out. It's based on Rogers. It's exactly the same as at&t without bloatware. I have it and it runs great.

I've NEVER understood why in the world people want the "official" updates when they can simply wait a day or 2 for ROM chefs to cook up a bloat, crap free ROM! Why go thru the whole unroot, flash the update then re root again...... Makes NO sense to me, must be really impatient n00bs or something lol justsayin

I run this also, and it works great, but I will say that it's not EXACTLY the same. The lock screen news feed doesn't work, says it can't determine my country...in other words, not Canada, no newsfeed. It's minor stuff.
Shouldn't this be in Q&A/locked due to the fact that there's a discussion thread already for this?

It's just a question.. No need for some of you to get a *****y about a question. I'm on serenity 1.2 and like to have a ROM close to OE... Which ROM were you other guys referring to?
Yea I'm a noob... But I'm sure all of you were noobs at some point...

The only reason people are getting "*****y", as you say, is because you posted your "question" in a development forum. I also was a noob at some point and still act like one here and there but I also show the fellow Xda'ers, devs, and mods alike respect by following the rules of xda and not getting snippy with the people trying to inform of a mistake made. Development sections are strictly for Rom releases and their corresponding threads. Had you posted this in the q&a section no one would have said a word to you. Friendly advice from a semi noob to a complete noob!
Ps people could get a whole lot meaner by the way!! Consider yourself lucky so far!

So many things wrong in this thread
First development is for developers only to post threads
so moving to General
Second there already is a bunch of these so please search before posting
There is a sticky thread in General for this topic to prevent 30 of the same threads
So thread closed
Thanks

Basic help please.

Hey there, I'm still relatively new to the whole android scene. I understand the basics for most other phones but when it comes to HTC, I get lost. I just purchased a G2 and I've heard there are some pretty good stuff available for it as long as you do it right. So, I guess my question is, how do I do it right? I know there's something about unlocking your bootloader and getting s-off but thats about it. If it's already been posted on here, sorry.
Thanks!
