I got my One X when they first came out, rooted it straight away and have been very happy. I'm running a JB AOKP ROM.
I've noticed a lot of talk about hboot versions, 1.23/1.28. My hboot is still 0.43. Am I missing anything? Does updating the hboot actually matter?
Thanks for any information

I have almost the same question : I would like to install the "Android Revolution HD 11.1" ROM and spent few days parsing the various post in the corresponding section of the forum.
The installation procedure states that to go to JB we need to have HBOOT v1.23. In addition it is indicated that :
{Do the following only if you have hboot version 0.43.
Download this ROM. You need to flash this RUU after you relock but before you flash firmware. Your hboot version will say 1.12}

Now my question :
My HOX indicates HBOOT v1.12 without any upgrade, do I need to upgrade it or not ?
Thanks in advance for your help

If you have 1.12, there is no need to upgrade to 1.12 before upgrading to 1.28.
To upgrade to 1.28, keep following the instructions.

Yes you do. But first check if you have the right CID.

Thanks Marc199 and BenPope for you help and QUICK answers !!! :good:
Also, make sure you really do want to upgrade to 1.28 because without S-OFF you can't go back to an hboot with a lower version number.

Thanks for the warning. BTW, how do you check whether if your are S-ON or S-OFF ?
I have been able to define my HBOOT version and my CID but this info...
Is there any thread summarizing hot to get all details about the HOX ?
Thanks again.
At the top of the bootloader it says either S-OFF or S-ON
why ?
Hi,
Wat is the benefit of upgrading to a higher hboot ?

Yes, it's a No-Sense rom.. So i don't need to update the HBoot? And i just can flash the rom and the boot.img?

Yes(for both questions) and if anything goes wrong you can EASILY revert with a backup from your custom recovery (and flashing your old boot.img)
ok

So the hboot version only affects sense roms?
ifsow what does hboot represend ?
because i dont get why would it be good for sense roms but not for non sense roms on the same device.
they have to update or fix some things in those different version right ?
at the start of last year a fix whas published for the bad battery life.
The fix whas supposed to add 10 to 20 % to battery life.
just now i saw a post from somebody asking how to do this fix and they told him it whas fixed in version 1.28 / 1.29
it whas not clear to me if they where refering to hboot version but i think they did.
i'm pretty confused about this, could you help me clarrify a bit ?

in that case you can update to JB HBOOT 1.31

also befor you unlock boot and root it you may want to download the latest rru from htcruu for your cid which will give you latest hboot and save you the time in unlocking bootloader twice if you want to use a jellybean rom
this is the ruu for your cid

You can root and flash CM10 on your existing hboot also. but updating your hboot is recomended as with that youll be able to flash CM10 as well as the newer ROMS which are being developed on android 4.2.
here is a noob friendly tool that will help you to flash the new firmware.

you can proceed with the rooting pocess then.

oh okay.. i didnt use CM10 much after updating to new hboot, so dont know about the issue!
Hi Guys!
I had CM10 on my One X. Something like 1 month ago I updated my ROM through OTA updates, after that I had some casual reboots, but not so annoying...
2 days ago, I updated once again and after that, my phone was very very very instable!! Everytimes I tryed to open an app, it rebooted; so I wasn't able to do a backup through Titanium Backup, neither.
So i decided to try with the Australia MIUI one, and it didn't start...
I tryed Renovated, same end.
I tryed the stock one...it works...
I tryed Orio7...no success...what can i try?? (ofc i flashed the right boot.img each time before install rom...also i tryed to flash it after as well...)
Thanks
Try insert coin or ice cold jelly ( AOKP based) and flash the correct boot.img!

at least...I don't remind how I done, but I remind that Im on 1.39...how can I check?

Reboot to the bootloader by holding volume down and the power button. It will say which hboot you have on there. Also, like enigmaticxeal said, make sure you flash the correct boot.img each time you flash a different rom.
yes,cm10 is based on jb,but doesn't need jb hboot
restart your phone and hold power+vol down for seconds and you will enter fastboot,there you can find your hboot version
I updated to stock jb Rom via ota as well and can no longet install any cm Rom. Flashed the correct boot and even tried with the modded boot for jb hboot and even tried repacking the modded one with the stock cm boot. Nothing I do is getting cm on there I'm on hboot 1.36.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
so I think i have 0.43 possible???
that is why you cant install JB sense roms.
JB sense roms needs hboot 1.31 or higher.
You need to update your hboot depending upon your cid.. Then you will be able to flash any sense roms you want.
Do a lil search regarding the hboot and cid, You will get the idea.
yep yep...That sounds like I didn't search, but the truth is that I watched for my CID and phone said "HTC_405"...I though that means I got 1.39, but most probably that was a list of devices COMPATIBLE FOR UPGRADE TO 1.39...
sorry guys I think I can go ahead alone keep this 3ad open if I ll fall in a mistake
I tryed to update Hboot...but im stuck here: FAILED (remote: 44 hboot version check fail)

Your cid has nothing to do with the hboot, main software and hboots are related. Cid is more a region code .....
For example if your phone is on ics 4.04 2.17 based software your hboot should be 1.12
and the the 4.0.3 software corresponds with hboots 0.95 and/or 0.96
Hope this clears it up.
Basically you can not determine on which hboot the phone is with the cid number

Do a nandroid backup from recovery, then:
fastboot oem lock
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip recovery.zip
That should be enough, combined with a search, for you to figure it out.

Hey guys
I just got an HTC one x on 4.0.3. I unlocked it via htcdev and installed cwm.
I was planning on installing either AOSP or CM10.1 but then i realized my hboot is too low.
UNLOCKED
HBOOT - 0.96
CID - 1111111111
S-OFF
Now I know there are a couple of ways to upgrade the hboot but all of them require a particular CID.
Now since mine is SuperCID.. i'm not really sure where that leaves me.
In short, what do i need to do in order to get to 4.2.2
I "think" the superCID allows me to install basically any firmware i want - any region etc.
So I assume i need to first relock - then use an RUU (or just firmware) that gives me a higher hboot and then proceed with the rooting?
Correct ! :thumbup:

Never mind. got it. CM10.1.2 successfully installed.
Please, can you tell me anyone, why I have still hboot 1.39 after 4.2.2 update on my HOX CID HTC__032? I thought that there will be update hboot to 1.72.
Sorry for stupid question, but I am a little confuse.

This topic contains some information to upgrade your Hboot. It is a separate process from flashing a rom.
On stock 4.1.2 with stock recovery update via OTA to 4.2.2 and the hboot should update automatically.
