ARHD Firmware - HTC One X

Hi guys,
Finally obtained the bollocks to root and install a custom ROM on my One X. Just need some confirmation though, on the ARHD page it says something about downloading firmware from a thread, my phone is currently on 1.29.401.7 so do I need to flash any firmware? It's quite confusing, thanks.

[Q] How to flash an official ROM, but keep the bootloader?

Hi!
Is it possible to flash a original HTC ROM with the appropriate RADIO, without loosing the unlocked bootloader?
I want to have an original ROM to have a reference if my phone works properly.
Thanks,
newpipe
if you have the rom parts, you could flash them via fastboot- system, boot, and userdata. You can also flash recovery and radio if you want to go full stock except for the bootloader. You might have to pack the rom parts into the appropriate formats. Either ext3 images or images packed with ANDROID! magic.
There isn't much fastboot info since everyone seems to like the one-click methods or the methods that require minimal typing. You can look around the G1 forums for fastboot info and unpack a few images.
Just don't erase hboot and you'll be OK- and by OK, I mean that you'll be able to recovery from any semi-bricked, boot looping, non-functional state.

You're right. The first post in this thread looks promising.
Can we flash the ROM and RADIO linked without risk?
Edit: One more question: what does "Deodexed" mean? I saw the "Deodexed" ROM in the first post in the linked thread.

[Q] install custom rom after update jb

how to install ARHD after update jelly bean
Do you really need to open up a thread asking this? Read, read and read again.
the same way you used to flash ics roms.
there is no change of procedure. Since your firmware is updated now. all you need to do is put the zip in sd card.
flash the rom through recovery then flash the boot.img through fastboot
dnt foreget to erase cache.
and reboot. You are done

Yes you need to unlock and have a custom recovery installed. Look at the stickies in the one x android development forum. Bunch of easy to follow guides.

[Q] How to flash official 4.1.2 when coming from a custom rom?

Hey guys, i'm a noob here.
I just flashed my phone with cm 10.1 and i'm not getting any signal on my phone. Before this i was on 2.3.6. Anyone have any suggestions on whether i should just flash the official 4.1.2 (and if i should, do you have any download links to the latest one?) or if you have any solution to my phone signal problem.
Thanks a lot guys

back to GB Stock ROM, and you can use jelly bean 4.1.2 Frimware for your region country, flash with odin, put PDA and CSC, if your flash done, go to recovery mode, and clear data and cache , and now you can reboot , finish, your trouble is done

How do I move back to stock? More related questions inside.

Hello Guys,
I am currently on Shpongle and want to move back to stock. Reason being frequent hanging and sluggishness. I have installed the swap performance updates and greenify, but still at times, the phone gets the better of my patience.
MY Questions:
1. How do I go back to stock? I dont think I have the stock nandroid backup. I have the Unlock_code.bin that was sent by HTC.
2. Is there a lightweight Sense ROM? I like the camera, and looks, but I dont like the friendfeed and stuff.
Thanks.

You can use myONEv RC9.5FX+ or Ignorance X for a lighter Sense ROM. You can remove the bloatware with titanium backup as well.

A few questions about it
Sorry for my mistake, please remove it
Hi people.
My device is curretly like this:
N9005
Knox 0x1
TWRP recovery
Stock Kernel
Stock ROM 4.4.2
I would like to return completly to stock. I know I won't be able to be Knox 0x0 again but I want the stock recovery, kernel and ROM.
My question is: can I simply restore the firmware in Kies to get back to stock (including the recovery)?
Stock Rom: http://www.idroidspace.com/primou-original-stock-rom-for-htc-one-v-android-4-0-3-ics/
Stock Kernel and Recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1221449&d=1343236979
I can't tell you if this stock rom is the original one by htc or with some modifications, I only found it and there are much more ruu uploads out there.

Thanks for the links. I have a problem. I decided I want to go back to comfortable stock ROM. I used a custom ROM, on a rooted HTC One V (GSM - Primo U). I followed the intructions: First I installed stock kernel and stock recovery. After I relocked the bootloader. I downloaded the RUU file according to my region (there are 4 european RUU version???). I connected my phone to computer and run the downloaded setup and followed the steps. Only after I started the update process, the progress bar stopped moving (before entering bootloader - the HTC One V didn't reboot into bootloader) and I got an error (155) message. What may be the problem? I have tried the all RUU files according to my region.
Thanks in advance,
Tejcsi

First, install a custom recovery again. Then do a full wipe and install the rom you downloaded (PrimoU_Europe_2.22.401.1_Stock_Rooted_ODEX_FULL.zip or PrimoU_Europe_2.22.401.1_Stock_Rooted_ODEX_LITE.zip) with the custom recovery like you would install a custom rom. Then reboot to fastboot and flash boot.img (not boot-signed.img because this didn't work for me). Try to reboot and if everything works you may install recovery_signed.img, but this is only useful for ota updates, which obviously the hov doesn't get anymore.

Thanks. Yesterday I've installed the PrimoU_Europe_2.22.401.1_Stock_Rooted_ODEX_FULL.zip ROM, everything O.K., but there is no WIFI on my phone. So I decided to use the RUU. So I don't use boot_signed.img. Which boot.img can I use. Do you send me one?

So if i use the boot.img file inside the primou_europe_2.22.401.1_stock_rooted_odex_full.zip file, the RUU can reboot the ONE V into bootloader?

I don't really understand your problem. If you want to reboot into bootloader just use adb reboot bootloader.

[Q] [urgent] Help needed

so i got into this problem i sucessfully unlocked the bootloader using htc offficial method flashed the twrp recovery wiped everything as coming from stock rom
downloaded the slimbeam rom and the g apps and flashed it but the problem is after the htc boot screen i am getting this kind of message in red lines and then it get stuck at that i tried several other roms also still the same problem any solutions where i got wrong??
On your PC, take the rom you're flashing and unzip it with 7zip, get the boot.img file over to where your fastboot is, then in fastboot USB mode, issue this command -
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Be sure that you're only using a rom for your phone.

You're unlocked with HTCdev.com but encrypted signature security is still there - aka s-on.
You'll need to do this with every rom flash, unless it includes an s-on kernel installer.
And if one does, those don't work 100% of the time, not the dev's fault.
This is pretty much the standard procedure for all s-on HTCs.
You can skip it if your flashing a similar rom and you're sure it has the exact same kernel as the previous one.
But you'll probably spend more time figuring that out each time than just doing the procedure.
I think most people do the rom first, then the boot.img - I think that you want to go with that.
Thanks man really appreciated the reply
Btw can you suggest stable cm rom kernel combo and
also do I have to flash the boot. Img from the rom I downloaded?
I would be great if you provide stable cm rom :thumbup::thumbup:
Send from my nexus 7 still on jb
Sorry, I own other HTC models and you have to go with one for your phone.
And yeah, you want to flash the boot.img from each rom you download and try.
The boot.img contains the kernel - that ties the hardware to the rest of the rom.
They have to match up.
So we I am also trying to flash ligux rom so we need to flash the rom and gapps in the recovery and then flash the hell boy kernel through flash boot via cmd right?

If that kernel and rom combo are compatible, yes, that's it exactly for an s-on HTC.
