My HOX is my first android phone, having come from the darkside :good:
Learnt an awful lot reading on here so far.. managed to Root n boot it & now stuck with ROMs
Thinking from reading that the ARHD is the way to go to begin with, but a couple of questions should I flash the latest available or is it worth waiting for one based on an official release rather than the current leaked HTC?
Secondly I'm still not sure on the kernels business & whether I should just leave that well alone for now?
Thanks in advance for any help :cyclops:

I suggest you try the newest, it has plenty of fixes: heating is gone, launcher is 60fps.
Kernels are just matter of preference, stock kernel is the most stable and newer one. Gaming is a lot of better with custom kernel like Franco or faux if you use interactive governor.
I'm using the leaked base ARHD with stock kernel and having no problems at all!

I'll say the newest Arhd is all fine. It fixes some heat issues found on previous base(1.29.x). The latest one is better optimized(think it's 7.1, the arhd version(base 2.x)) and stock kernel will be fine. If you game a lot, which I'm sure you'll probably do some time, whether it be now or later. Leave the kernel for now, you'll probably know when or whether you want a different kernel.

All done, and pretty painless except it hung on the HTC screen after ticking the reboot option at the end, but a power on and off sorted just fine so now a member of the ARHD club :-D
One more question, should I delete the backups made via titanium BEFORE the rom change and do a fresh one now I've restored my apps via it please?

I'm currently using a Froyo port called DefroST, its a Tad buggy but that's because its not official for the Desire. If you want to stick a SenseUI, then I'd suggest either Pays ROM or maybes even MCR. You should probably go through them all and figure out which you prefer though.

Really? At the risk of sounding like a jerk.... How did you even find your way into the Q&A section without seeing tons of posts about "When will we get the ICS update?"
Just to let you know, once the OTA ICS update is released you will not be able to download it since you are not on the Verizon network. What you will need to do is S-OFF (or at least HTC Dev Unlock) your phone so that you can flash a custom rom. The best part about this is that you don't even have to wait for a custom rom to be released thanks to our awesome devs! You have tons of options for ICS, if you want stock Nitsuj17 just posted a leaked version of the update earlier today and he also has another sense ICS rom out, CondemnedSoul soul has a few nice options (AOKP and CM9 or if you want JellyBean he has the new version of AOKP as well,) Aerovan has an awesome CM9 and a CM10 rom, TazzPatriot has a sense ICS rom out too. There are others as well, those are just the ones that spring to mind.

There is no real "stock" ICS ROM yet as it hasn't been released. The closest ROMs to stock ICS at the moment are:

Just stay stock. If you are that much of a rookie to this, it just might make things worse at this point in time. Most don't have GSM working 100% from what I understand (GSM users can correct me on that).
But, if you haven't even rooted yet, you are still a bit away from being able to flash one of those bad boys. I say give it another week at least to see what these devs can do with the leaked rom.
It will probably be easier for you. If not, and you think you are ready to take the plunge, than good luck and enjoy!
Hey Guys,
tl;dr: is there a list that tells you what rom works with what cid/baseband? and what is the latest ARHD version that works for HTC One X HTC One X CID VODAP001 / Baseband 1.28.161.9 Vodafone UK edition
Full story:
I just lost all my data trying to install ARHD 13 without properly reading the guidelines. lol :*(
My HTC One X is CID VODAP001 / Baseband 1.28.161.9 and obviously not compatible with all the jelly bean roms.
Then i tried installing the ARHD 9.7.2. rom and that didn't work either. I got it installed but when i tried booting it for the first time it would crash and just reboot and to the same all over again.
So now i am back on the old RUU vodafone official release which is full of bloatware and just drains the battery so much faster.
I am wondering how would i know which ARHD is suitable for my device? Or is it all trial and error? And is there a repository for the older versions of ARHD. Same question for CyanogenMod?
Thanks for your help!

In a word - none. There is no custom JB ROM that could work on your device.
Sorry, mate, you'll have to wait, or flash ccustom ICS ROM and enjoy. Or, do both.

You're right, 972 is an ICS ROM.
I'm personally not using ARHD, so I wouldn't know which one to recommend, honestly. Try reading Mike's thread, and I bet you'll find the answers.
I could also recommend you the ICS ROM that I am using. Or eve better, try few ROMs for a few charge cycles to kill time until JB is released.

i am totally willing to do that! and yes would be very interested in the rom your using... i just want none of the sense bloatware and speed and battery improvements.
i did just now try
numero1 rom
renovate ics version 5.8
they didn't work either for their newest iteration based on ICS... i just think its so odd that none of the ICS work for me...
i am going to try this one now: viperX v2.7.1 (Sense 4.1)
i did sift through quite a bit of mikes thread but to be honest i had a hard time knowing what is relevant for me and what issn't. i understood i should've gone for the ICS build but once that failed i don't even know where to begin searching for the problem..
yeah viper 2.6 or 2.0 didn't work either... they boot then they crash... not much options it seems for this device....
Sounds like you're not wiping the cache and dalvik cache. ARHD 9.7.2 should work, you can use the superwipe.
Hi ben thanks for your reply. I ran the wipe script provided on the arhd thread i run it everytime i install.
But its good that you let me kmow that arhd 972 should work then i can look for solutions.
Any more ideas?

I'm with Vodafone and have a VODA CID but am running ARHD 9.7.2. You only need to check your cid number for Jelly Bean roms
When you installed 9.7.2 did you flash the boot.img for the 9.7.x rom? Not flashing the boot.img will cause the boot loop error you got
Also did you do a superwipe? You need to do this if coming from another rom including stock rioms.
When changing roms you will loose all your data on the phone memory so do a backup. The data on your virtual sd card (photos etc) should still be intact.

Hi there!
yes i got it running. My god its such a difference!!! i had arhd v6 running for a long time then i had the very first RUU running for a few days... now i REALLY appreciate the speed and efficiency of that rom. I have the suite tools on there as well. Love it!
I love maximzing battery run time... I have juice defender with rather extreme settings.. but if you got any other pointers on how to make it last long time always appreciated! did you try other roms as well?
I was also wondering about the rom cleaner. I still have a lot of apps on there that i don't use like teeter, htc notes, htc locations stuff like that... can i remove that with rom cleaner? or is it good enough to user titanium backup to freeze them?
thanks for your reply!

Hello fellow XDA members,
I was wondering if there are any MIUI ROMs for an HTC One X which has already been updated to the JB ROM (and so has HBoot 1.36). I tried a few one, but none of them worked for me and maybe some of you know a work around.
It's not that I'm too lazy to search, I just want to be sure, since I've just rooted it last week.
Thanks in advance!
Are you flashing the boot.img as well using fastboot?
Apparently this one works on the latest hboot.

Yes I do. I also tried that ROM already, but I thought (I hadn't much time to wait) but I thought it got stuck on the bootscreen.

The only MIUI ROM that I could get working on newer bases is MIUI.x ROM, but it's still on ICS, but a great ROM nonetheless.

Thanks for the tip. That one worked for me too! Only thing is that I don't like it's theme.
I ended up with MiuiAur, which worked for me! It is ICS Sense based and works flawlessly!
Hi - forgive me if this has been covered already.
About 12/18 months ago I flashed a version of AR onto my HTC One X - absolutely brilliant! Thing that impressed me the most was the battery life which more than doubled. Well, before Christmas I installed CM10.2 - it took a while to figure out where I was going wrong, and did have a bit of help from one or two people on here, thank you very much.
However, I can practically watch my battery drain now. So I have a couple of questions please...
Firstly, I've plaid with with the performance tweaks but they don't seem to do a great deal. I've restricted my CPU speed and a couple of other mods but it doesn't seem to do a great deal. Is there anything else I can do so that my battery lasts past midday?
Secondly I have had to freeze Theme Provider using Titanium Backup because I got that annoying pop up window after installing/uninstalling a theme. Is there a simple way of getting this back?
Finally (I know I said a couple of questions - sorry), if I wanted to revert back to ARHD, all the ROM's for seem to be for 4.2 or below only, yet I have 4.3.1. Is this right? If not, could somebody point me in the right direction please?
Many thanks in advance

last official from htc is 4.2.2
It says 4.3.1 because you are on a custom rom. For instance there are now aosp roms (cm11).that's android 4.4 ...... Sense roms are indeed up to 4.2.2 and not beyond that.

If you want a custom sense 5 rom then i suggest to use philz touch recovery 5.15 and install a clean new sense 5 rom. If you want to go back to 100% stock rom you need a nandroid backup of the stock rom.
