Hi Folks
Just Got my One X today from Virgin Mobile and I want to install Open EU 3,14 JB on it. Now according to Virgin they say they use Non-Branded software on the One X, but it still has the Virgin Mobile symbol on Boot up.
So I downloaded the RUU charged my device, Installed the HTC USB Drivers, put the One X into "USB Debugging" On, It got half way through the flash itself, then said "Incorrect Device Signature".
Any advice how I can install JB.
Thanks
Ok, Ive read around the forums and it seems I need to S-OFF my ONE X, but after looking at the thread.. it appears that I either have to pay for the tool or its not possible yet.. but is there something i can do to Temporarily do so i can install 3.14 JB.
Cheers

Hi guys. My first post on here I think, but I have been lurking a while and using a couple of the ROMs on the developers forum.
My Desire has a problem where it reboots itself whenever hot. This happened on the standard ROM but has continued when using custom ones also. I've been meaning to send it back to O2 for about a month now but haven't got round to it. I thought I better get it back to standard before I return it, but that's where things started to go wrong.
Both my work PC and laptop wouldn't entertain the phone being connected. HTC Sync could not see it. Downloadd the latest version, tried restarting with only Windows services running etc. but no joy.
So I brought the phone home and connected it to my home laptop, which detects it. I downloaded the SDK and installed the Google USB drivers, all seemed good. I tried to run the HTC ROM Update Utility, but have had various problems.
I am trying to use the O2 RUU from the forums here.
The most common problem is ERROR 140:BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR
I'm currently running a Froyo ROM.
I have also noticed, that if I reboot the phone to the bootloader and then plug the USB cable in, it goes back to the old Android 1.0 on device manager, which it only does if connected during bootloader. This cannot be changed, no matter how many different drivers I try to update it with.
Any help here would be much appreciated. My warranty expires in May!
Was your phone o2 branded originally?

It was, yes.
You might need a goldcard even though your phone was originally o2. Also the failsafe solution is to extract the ruu zip file from the flashing utility, put it on the sd-card and let it flash it automatically.
This way you eliminate a lot of potential errors.
edit: error 140 is bootloader version error. It means your current bootloader is newer than the one in the ruu and the utility does not allow a downgrade. You will either need to find an o2 ruu with the newest bootloader or use a wwe one with a goldcard instead.
Your issue is not related to having a gold card inserted. The message is pretty clear: Your phones hboot is to new (or the RUUs is to old, if you want to put it that way). RUUs will typically not allow you to downgrade hboot. Try to find a newer RUU with a sufficient hboot version or if you are S-Off, find an older hboot and downgrade yourself via fastboot.
Regards.
Edit: sorry... haven't noticed the edit in the post above.

OK thanks guys. I don't know what a goldcard is, I'm certain I never had to use one of those when I rooted the phone with the unRevoked method.
I may have found a better O2 ROM this morning, so will give that a try and let you know.
It worked! I'm onto an O2 Froyo ROM now
I have an HTC Desire which I have flashed with CyanogenMod and rooted with Unrevoked. The phone restarts randomly; more often when connected to a power source. It recently got stuck on the HTC screen and kept rebooting. When I went to recovery, the phone would just reboot again. ClockworkMod Recovery had stopped working.
Then after connecting it to a Windows computer, it somehow booted to CyanogenMod.
When I tried Unrevoked again on a Mac, it said "USB Connection Error" after doing a bunch of things. I could access ClockworkMod recovery though.
The phone continues to restart.

To return for warranty claims, I need to restore it back to the Stock HTC ROM, for which I tried using two RUU files from the Development forum.
My baseband is 32U_5.11.05.27. HBOOT 0.93.1
Both the EXEs failed. I got a USB 170 error and 171 error while trying them on different computers with Windows XP.
I extracted the ROMs from the RUU, put them in the SD card and went to HBOOT.
With, the WWE which was marked 32U_5.11.05.27, I got an error that said "Wrong CID Version".
With the India version(the phone was purchased in India), I got an error "Main version is older".
I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong here. I haven't lost hope, but time is running out since I only have until the end of this week before the warranty ends.
Hi,
Did you manage to fix the issue, i too ran into the same issue and want go back to stock Froyo came with my phone.
Did you downgrade the hboot from Alpharev.nl before you run the ruu?

some questions please in regards to rooting my Vodafone AU phone
I want to install a custom ROM/root the phone so I've been reading this guide => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592355.
I want to make sure I have some fallback in case I fcuked up the custom ROM install.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. I found a Vodafone RUU but it seems it's newer than the one I got. 1.28.869.11 instead that one on mine which is 1.28.869.9. I suppose it's better to update mine then? or leave it as is and just flash to 869.11 if I get into trouble?
2. Does someone know of a site that has MD5/SHA hashes of the RUU files just in case I want to verify my copy has downloaded completely/legit? I didn't download mine from the filefactory website as it requires a minimum $12 which I can't afford at the moment. :/
3. htcdev.com site is VERY VERY slow at the moment. bad time to do the unlocking I suppose?
Thank you very much!
1. Newer is better
2. I don't personally but someone might
3. Yes it's VERY slow at the moment as they released the Desire S ICS RUU recently so it's getting a bit of traffic
encountered a new problem during rootin. :/

I'm kinda stuck in rooting my device. D:
I'm using this guide => [Tut] Preparing Your One X for Custom Roms (For Dummies) - xda-developers.
I have boot my HTC into "fastboot" mode (it says fastboot in the screen). I then plugged the HTC provided cable and "fastboot" now becomes "fastboot USB".
When I try to run "fastboot oem get_identifier_token". It is stuck at "waiting for device". The device doesn't show up in windows explorer. Not really sure if it should show up there or not.
1. Also, I tried running the fastboot command mentioned above with USB debugging enabled and disabled. No effect at all.
2. I have turned off firewall/antivirus just in case too. Still no effect.
3. I've tried running command prompt as normal user and as admin. Still not effect.
4. I have reset my new phone to factory settings as I've installed some apps while browsing XDA on how to go about getting root.
I haven't installed any HTC specific software. I was just following the advice as mentioned in the XDA guide.
Any thoughts? :/
Without the HTC software you have no drivers, hence no response in fastboot. Download and install HTC Sync Manager from the HTC website and then try again
Technically you dont need a hash for an exe (ruu), if its a corrupt download it wont run, simples.

The guide never mentioned it so I thought no HTC software is needed.
Thanks.
Hello fellow One-X'ers, I am coming from a long line of Samsung devices and have only had one HTC phone in the past, (HD2).
I cant for life of me figure out how to root this phone, I have tried the conventional method, alternate root method, im getting nothing... Bootloader will not unlock through htcdev (which it says to do in half of the root how-tos), i always see error 160 invalid MID...
I have installed and updated the following:
-Java
-HTC Mobile drivers as well as sync
-SDK
-Fastboot
wtf am I missing here? I just want to get a new rom as this sense stuff absolutely sucks. Yes I have searched, yes I have read...
What phone have you got? If I remember correctly the "Error 160" / "invalid MID" responses are returned when you try and use HTCDev to unlock the AT&T One X (actually the One XL) which doesn't support unlocking the bootloader in that way.
Boot into the bootloader and check the model name displayed at the top of the screen: if it says "evita" then that's your problem, and you'll need to head over to the forums for your particular device to get some help because none of the stuff in this section will work - http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1538
If the bootloader shows "endeavoru" then you are in the right place, but in that case I don't know what the problem is.
Uninstall HTC sync, keep the USB drivers mind.

So All was well I had rooted my Rogers One X and had TWRP on it. Long story short, i tried to flash maximus HD, borked the phone and now I have 0MB storage, can't connect my phone via TWRP to my computer since no matter what driver i try theres No MTP connection. I can get into fastboot (and drivers are fine there) and TWRP.
HBOOT-2.14.0000, S-ON
Radio- 0.23a.32.09.29
