TUTORIAL How to revert back to ICS after upgrading to Jelly Bean

Hi folks,
So, you wanna try the JB leak but want to use ICS after that? Yes, it's possible. Even if you upgraded your HBOOT. And quite simple.
1. First, make a full nandroid backup of your favourite ICS ROM.
2. Then follow the instructions provided by the JB-chefs.
3. Testdrive the JB ROM
4. Reboot your phone into recovery
5. Restore your nandroid backup
6. Reboot your phone
7. if there's a bootloop, then boot bootloader, then recovery and flash the boot.img provided by your ICS ROM-chef.
And that's all. I did this and it's working. Hope that helps other users as well.

No the problem is that when you brick your device going to the new hboot there is no way back. There is no RUU with JB !

Indeed. But if you do exactly what the tutorial says, and follow the devs instructions, it's hard to brick your phone. Though it's possible...
Anyway, it's up to you... You should take the risk, or sit back, relax, and wait for the official JB RUU.

HI
I get a big issue!
First of all thanks for your post!
2ndly, I got a One X with S-Off yep lucky man!
But here is my issue:
I succeed in installing the Maximus custom rom And I am s-off so this is cool, but I have forget to use the update script.
So I decided to create a new zip with this update and flash it with the recovery!
But the flash aborted!
Once again, same result!
Then I say... Hum something wrong, I tried with the original custom rom.zip from Football! The installation aborted once again!
So I try to relock the bootloader (fastboot oem lock) succeed
Flash the PJ46IMG.zip (fastboot flash zip PJ46IMG.zip)
Unlock the bootloader (fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code_OneX.bin , I changed the name)
But since this moment my phone can't use fastboot command...
I have restarted the phone and no usb detection from the computer :s
and I try with fastboot usb: fastboot devices
Nothing
fastboot flash zip recovery.zip (waiting for device)
recovery and there is a phone with blue triangle!
I tried to use a RUU, but the phone is not detected by USB, so it doesn't succeed!
Then I do a factory reset... still nothing :s
I am locked with S-Off and can't use fastboot!
Do you have any idea about how I can do something???
Thanks for all your answers!

Wow this sounds tricky.Have you tried moving to a different computer to see if it works there?

Try reinstalling Android sdk drivers, the lot, on your PC.

Can you flash any other rom based on ICS or other AOSP JB Roms with a ICS kernel like IceColdJelly?
Is the battery life better with the new hboot?

You should be able to revert to an ICS rom on the new hboot (reflash ICS boot.img and then restore nandroid backup) but apparently the AOSP roms don't work. Users on the new hboot and JB roms do comment that the battery life is much improved.

what's your CID first of all?
---------- Post added at 10:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:37 PM ----------
this is the procedures to follow...
but you need a certain CID before starting this...
Relock your bootloader using the commend 'fastboot oem lock'.
Go into fastboot mode and type 'fastboot oem rebootRUU'.
Flash the new firmware using the commend 'fastboot flash zip firmware.zip'.
On first time running the commend you will see FAILED, don't panic and just run the commend again.
Reunlock your bootloader via HTCDev.
Flash custom recovery using the commend 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img'.
Download boot.img and flash it using the commend ‘fastboot flash boot boot.img’.
Use the commend 'fastboot erase cache' to avoid boot issues.
Go into recovery and install the ROM.
Reboot your device and enjoy from JB!

ok, i think you've tried to flash a stock rom without flashing a stock recovery !!.
do you have fasboot adb on your pc ?
you need to unlock your bootloader and re flash a custom recovery
if not search the dev section for a tool that will unlock your boot and re-flash a custom recovery for you-all the instructions are on there.
once you have re unlocked and flashed a custom recovery,go into recovery and see if there are any backups of the previous rom (nand)
see if that works ..

Tthe basic steps now are

Get your nandroid backup there,(the vodap021 2.17) you need to flash the boot.img file from that nandroid with fastboot commands, then do a full wipe in recovery and restore the nandroid.
But you still have to fix the fastboot part right ? You need to install android SDK/java SDK and the HTC drivers. Then you have to put the phone in the bootloader and open a commandprompt from inside the folder where the adb/fastboot files are located ...they are in a subfolder in the installed javaSDK install folder

Thanks, it is beginning to make some sense to me now.
So first bit I got to do is the fastboot issue, which is tha last bit you mentioned right?
And after unlock boot loader than flash the recovery with one you provided in the link, tx
So that means I will go back to stock right?

Yes unlock, flash custom recovery, flash boot.img, full wipe in recovery, restore the nandroid, flash back the stock recovery .....
And yes this way you go back to stock and i will also give you the download link for the stock recovery. This one is the last you flash after restoring everything
http://db.tt/U5CK4noo
Then you are able to update to JB from within the phones software update menu :thumbup:
Ps you do not have to relock the bootloader anymore !

Please guys, iWe spent all day trying to figure it out, after wipe phone reboots constantly and when if boot screen it's not charging so I'm prob going to run out of battery in a couple of hours

You restore through the custom recovery. Power+vol , choose recovery. If you flashed the recovery ok then you can do from in there. Ie mount usb, copy over your nand backup and restore it. You may have to flash the boot.img using fastboot.

One X - recover stuck on red triangle, no mobile, no wi-fi

Hi all,
I've tried to install newer InsertCoin ROM, during HBOOT update, the phone booted to his current ROM with no Wi-Fi or Mobile access, recovery stuck with red triangle, Trying to install some custom recovery using fastboot v1.2 - got "writing recovery - failed not allowed" message. What is the fastest way to get phone back to work?

Did you re-unlock the bootloader after updating the hboot?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

Not allowed error is when the bootloader is locked or relocked. Unlock it via the htcdev site and flash a custom rexovery. Then flash the boot img from the new rom, make a FULL wipe in the recovery and install the new rom !

The phone os S-ON , is it ok? Should I flash new image using flashboot or other interface? Thanks In Advance

I'm not talking about S-On ....I'm talking about a locked or relocked bootloader.
Is it unlocked ?
When you succesfully updated your hboot with a firmware flash you MUST unlock the bootloader, flash a new custom recovery, install a new JB rom and flash its boot.img
A custom gets broken when you update the hboot because locking/unlocking will set the phone to factory state. So it will delete the current custom rom.

Also could you, guys, elaborate why my original ROM started to act spooky - no Wi-FI and so on.

Probably because you updated the hboot. You have to start from scratch after that. It gets messed up

I did as you proposed, unlocked bootloader, installed CWM recovery, wiped data, dalvik cache and installed the InsertCoin ROM, the issue - that I got same problems - Wi -Fi displayed error and not started, SIM is not recognized, no network. Could you please advise what to do now?

Flash the boot.img from the insertcoin rom !

did you flash the boot.img and erase fastboot cache?

Have you installed the proper drivers on your PC?
Before installing RUU, try the command "fastboot devices" to see if it's recognizing your device.
Edit: You'll have to do that from a folder with fastboot in it or you have to have fastboot in your PATH info.

Looks like you are connected, so I don't know why the RUU cannot find your device.

I have tried it again, and Ruu found my phone, but bootloader error appeared:
The ROM update utility cannot update your android phone. Please get the correct ROM update utility and try again...
Any ideas where to get the corect one for vodafone UK???

I can't find the appropriate RUU anywhere..... Is there any possibility to downgrade my phone from that state as it is now????

Yeah, but actually this one still seems like doesnt sort out my issue, I did find the right nandroid backup and I would flash it in recovery if I had any..
Don't forget that right at the beginning I was about to go for stock Rom, so I did flash stock recovery and I locked the bootloader.... So the question now is if I can flash again some recovery (which one) while my bootloader is relocked. Or should I go ahead and do relock the bootloader again and than flash recovery...? Sorry but I am still a bit lost, and I dont wanna my HOX to become a brick.... Thx

Looks like you can't go back to stock, there is no RUU, no nandroid backup.
You could still ask if somebody is willing to post a nandroid backup for your CID and version, and in the meanwhile you can unlock your bootloader again, flash a custom recovery and flash a ROM (+boot.img) of your choice that fits your hboot version.
