dear XDA members ,,, as i got a lot of solutions in this form and i see the OTA updates are making problems for many users ,,, here is the solution for people who unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM recovery ......
ON STOCK ROM ...
1- you dont need to relock the bootloader ..
2- download voodoo rootkeeper .. (from market) and run the program and click protect root.
3- you will need your original recovery that you changed to CWM ..
example: if you had 1.28.415.9 and you installed CWM then you need recovery.img for 1.28.415.9 .
install the stock recovery from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24738635#post24738635
4-install recovery.img from fastboot ..
5-boot into phone and OTA update the one x to 1.29.xxx .
6-after update is done just open rootkeeper and click restore root ,,
7-DONE
a big thanks for xda members and im happy to help ...
Nice m8

Actually I never really had to relock the bootloader to apply an OTA... just flashing the stock recovery and keeping the unlocked bootloader + rooted custom ROM did the trick for me... Tho its not a really good idea to install an OTA patch on top of a custom ROM.
i added ( FOR STOCK ) what i know if you have custom rom you wont receive OTA ... will you ???!!!! ... my solution is about if you are still on Stock ...
if you search google youll see people talking about locking the bootloader and removing root and all kind of crap ...
...since the radio is part of the rom now and the only "advantage" of flashing a RUU is an hboot update.
So what is the "advantage" of an newer hboot? If someone finds an exploit on the 0.43 hboot which is fixed on newer hboots you gonna cry (-:
So my advice..stay on lowest hboot until we get S-OFF.
I also didn't have to relock my bootloader.
Just restored my default back up with cwm before root. Fastboot restore to original recovery (stock), update and done. Went back to fastboot and restored cwm, rooted the phone and done.

May I post this in the HOS Section ? Thanks
What i did was flashed stock recovery, downloaded and installed the update done, that's all i did and root was intact, that was like last month
I'm still haven't issues installing the OTA update.
I followed your instructions and I still get the red triangle error
EDIT:
just did some fishing, and it's because my stock rom is so heavily modified that the OTA won't update anything
hi, quick check, do i still need to flash back CWM or it will include back CWM?

the OTA will not include CWM, as CWM is not stock.
thanks you made my day
Forgive me for the noob question but how would one find out which stock recovery was on phone before I flashed cwm. Didn't take note before hand

Whatever Rom version is shown in "about" e.g. 1.26, 1.28, 1.29 , then this is the recovery version you need

You can unlock the bootloader and flash any custom rom but you will not be able to flash a different RUU other than your carrier branded one.
You can only brick your phone if you don't follow instructions carefully. Check the Dev section - there is a step by step guide to rooting your phone.
but , If you have unlocked via HTCDev the this would have removed your CID in which case yes you should be able to flash the WWE RUU on a branded device.
If you have not unlocked and are still running stock then no it wont work.
I've unlocked via htcdev and my cid stayed the same 001. There's a few threads which all say the same thing, and that is we need s-off to change our cid

Why do you need RUU to flash on an unlocked device. U have a choice to flash custom roms from Android development section. These custom roms from our developers are fully optimized to flash on.

that is a normal RUU, you have to run it on your PC with the phone connected, it won't void your warranty cause RUU are released by HTC... we can say that it is a sort of upgrade that must be done from the PC go on with that don't worry... does the vodafone logo appears on bootanimation or splash screen? cause if it is a splash screen you can't change that due to NON S-OFFed phone
Do I need to put the phone in some downloading mode or it must be just on?
Thanks for your reply.
Well when I turn on my phone I get the HTC logo, then that Vodafone logo and then again the HTC logo with the beats audio.

no, you can both connect the phone while is booted up or while it is in bootloader mode, but i would recommend the second one... the vodafone logo, from what i've understood, is part of the bootanimation so it is easly removable (only if you have root)
Ok, how about if I root the phone remove the logo then unroot and flash the ruu?
Is this possible, cause I still want to use the official firmware.
Thanks again mate for helping me out on this.
I used to have an SGS2 and it was way more simple to flash it.

That won't work because if the ruu has the bootanimation it will flash that too...

What's your cid? (use cid getter to find out) Maybe your hox is branded. Then you are unable to remove the logo by flashing the ruu.

I was thinking to flash a different ruu than the one i have right now, the Europe ruu must be clean i guess.
CID VODAP102
While flashing the ruu the cid is checked. If it does not fit to the cids its made for it won't flash.

probably you'll find your firmware upgrade in this thread but that will require a lot of time!
Ok, so i saw last night that the latest firmware + hboot is out for my Phone CID VODAP102 and ive decided to flash this firmware with hboot 1.3.6 and install the latest Ordroid Rom 12.1.0, from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1836919
I was just wondering why in the Ordroid thread says that you need at least 1.3.1 hboot and when you install Ordroid it says that you need hboot 1.3.9?
Anyway ive installed it and i dont have any issue so far, just a lil change i guess that it comes with the JB.... i guess.... is this normal when you connect the USB cable from pc to phone not to get the option to choose the connection? (charge only , disk drive...etc)
If anyone have this Rom please confirm this to me.
Thanks and Merry Christmas to all of you guys!!
Yes those options have been removed in JB.
Its same for everyone who has updated to JB.

I see you're using Maximus ROM how's that?
Any difference between Maximus and Ordroid ?
Right now i am on insert coin 15.0.0
All custom roms are pretty much same be it maximus or ordroid.. few of them are themed and rest based on stock look.
if you want a fully themed customized ROM with a lot of Tweaks, wait for the JB Viper X ROM

Android 4.0.3
Software 1.15.401.1
I want to install RUU to receive OTA. I have rooted the phone but have not flashed a custom firmware. I have twrp 2.3.1.0 recovery and have backed up my stock rom. I am very luck to have s-off but i dont want to install a custom rom yet. I have been doing alot of reading and have not figured the right way of doing this.
Do i need to relock the bootloader even if i have s-off? Don't know why i unlocked it in the first place!
Do i need to install a stock recovery or can i keep twrp 2.3.1.0 or will the RUU do this for me?
I was going to flash this RUU first RUU 1.26.401.2 if i do flash this will s-off change to s-on?
Can someone inform me the right way about doing this. Appreciate the help.
thanks
You don't have to relock bootloader to receive OTA. And please do not run a RUU. You'll lose superCID(111111).
If you want to receive OTA, you'll need the stock recovery..... TWRP will not work.

nooo you will not use your s-off & supercid for sure !!!
I did this a week ago to recieve ota
relock you bootloader just in case then run ota as administrator your s-off & supercid will not change !!!
RUU has nothing to do with changing your phone to S-ON or your cid
we s-offers dont have to worry about cids
Im s-off too lol
if you need something pm me
good luck

You keep repeating it, it'll make him move quicker.
If your phone is not receiving the OTA 4.2.2 update...it has not yet rolled out for your current CID/country/carrier/whatever. It is rolling out and if you wait you get it.
Or install a custom ROM if you don't want to wait.
Thank you
And ...no....you do not have to relock the bootloader to get and install ota's

Are you on custom rom are the bootloader unlocked if you are on custom rom restore nandroid backup from HERE and update to latest JB. Give more information if you are stock and in software update you don't see update you can't update to 4.2.2 officialy but with custom rom yes you can.

You can.t change your CID if you are not S-OFF. And for the next question NO S-OFF for HOX to this moment or I think in UK have some shops where they do S-OFF but you must to google it for this.
