Hi guys i'm waiting for the official jb update from htc but something cross my mind. I have an unlocked rooted stock rom. Updating from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 isn't a problem at all because i still have all the bloat application intact and recover root using rootkeeper. However how about updating from ics to jb? Do i need to relock my bootloader? Any answer will be appreciated

If you have the stock recovery installed you do not need to relock
If flashing an ota update you only need to have stock recovery installed

RElock the flash firmware then unlock the install the rom
Nah i'm not gonna install custom jb rom so i think i don't have to install firmware. Official ota will also include the firmware right? I'm just concerned that unlock bootloader will mess up the ota update to jellybean because of the firmware inside the ota

Just run a non rooted stock rom backup.flash custom recovery and your good to go to flash the official JB update when it comes out. No need to lock the bootloader. It just updates the hboot and prob radio version. After that you can flash back custom recovery and also run a older ics rom ( nandroid )
Correct me if i'm wrong, here to read & learn

Dear frens,
I've rooted my HOX and unlocked bootloader. However, I still use stock rom and kernel.
My question is, can I update the software straight away without unroot back my phone? Some of my frens told me that once you unroot your phone, you cannot update your software even though u r still using the stock rom. Is it true?
Please advise.
Thanks, guys.

You will have to relock your bootloader and flash stock recovery to perform the ota. Some people recommend unrooting first before doing an ota just incase there's any problems

As you are on stock there is no need to relock your bootloader so long as you are doing the update via OTA (over the air) i.e from your handset.
you will however need to flash stock recovery before doing the update.

Can I ask where to find the stock recovery file?
..... Manage to find it at www.androidrevolution.nl/ARHD/index.php?dir=OneX/Recovery/
Hi everyone,
I have got a rooted HOX, and I flashed what I think is a custom rom. I did this beacuse I am getting prepared for an ota update and my bigger question is if with this rom I will be able yo receive the official update.
Here are the details of the rom.
Thx.

As long as you have a stock recovery you should get the updates. It looks like you are on the 1.29.401.11 rom so you should. But you will lose root after you get another update.
As i see this is stock rom and you will have ota update.

You'll get the update notification, but it won't install.

Why root if you want to wait for OTA updates?
Because when I bought it it was already rooted...
In fact I dont know what to do... Stay rooted, or unroot it and receive OTA updates.

You certainly will.
As far as you come back to your stock rom, you will get your OTA. you need to download keeproot app from google play to stay rooted though.
Just a quick one.
There is an ota update available for my wifes Wildfire S which has been rooted. If I go ahead with the update will my root 'stick' or will I need to flash it again? Its running a stock rom and running 2.3.2, the update is 2.3.5.
Root will probably go......try using OTA root keeper...that might work
And i've got a quick one too
THERE IS A Q AND A SECTION HERE

Tried the ota update but all I got was a picture of an explanation mark and a green android. I'll just manually update the stock rom from a zip. I use Android revolution HD for my OneX, is something similar available for the wildfire S? I can see plenty of other roms on here but I want one that is based on the HTC stock rom like Android revolution is.
Quick one. You'll need stock recovery.

Do you mean I need to take cwm recovery off and replace it with stock? Can't I just flash a new stock rom (and maybe a new boot.img) on to it?
I've got a tmobile branded phone so my fid starts something like tmobxxx... And I know I can't root and flash jb as of yet.
What do I have to wait for for me to be able to flash it?

If everything is still stock, ie no custom ROM or recovery, you should get prompted for an OTA update when it is available for your CID.

Im talking about when will it be able to be flashed as a custom rom via root
for that you need to update your hboot, since your cid is not supported you may have to wait till your carrier released the JB OTA.
I also believe that you can install a AOSP ROM of jellybean, that being said you will not be able to flash a sense rom until your carrier pushes out the OTA.

Just flash stock recovery first and as long you dont modified anything, just rooted, the ota will go through. I heard you might loose the root after ota.

You already in stock 4.4.2 just rooted and twrp. All you need is stock recovery and checknthe updates and receive the ota. Check the xda thread if its true that once you accepted the 4.4.3 ota, you will loose root.

i can root in 4.4.3 ???
I was on the original 1.12 firmware, but here was my process.
I relocked my bootloader, used the 1.57 RUU to return to stock. Updated to 4.4.3 with the OTA, went back through the HTC Dev unlock process to unlock my bootloader, then flashed TWRP.
From there you can install a custom rom or use TWRP to inject root to the stock rom.

No. I had to go to the HTC Dev site and put in new token info to get a new binary.
