I'm sure many are seeking for the answer on how to flash this rom? Well then head over to question #7 - for a more informative guide follow this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1920060
With the release of these jb roms there is a crap load of questions popping up. A lot of cid questions as well which are being repeated over and over. With this thread i hope to put an end to it.
Any questions that pop up i will try to answer as well as add to this list as time passes by, until eventually we have an ota and things settle in. Feel free to ask questions, if i cant answer, another person will. New questions are added to first page.
Overview
Q1:I want to install the jelly bean rom that has been leaked, how do i do this?
Q2: How do i check what my cid number is?
Q3: If i update my hboot, will i be able to use my previous ics rom?
Q5:Can i change my cid number, is there an alternative route? I MUST HAVE IT!!
Q6: Must the hboot be updated in order to be able to upgrade to jelly bean in future?
Q7: How do i flash the jelly bean roms?
Q8: On which cids to the firmwares work?
Q9: Will future updates make it possible for us to upgrade without updating hboot?
Q10: Should you install the new rom or wait? (This question might seem silly but i've seen people asking)
Q11:How can i check which RUU i need?

Q12:Is there actually an easier method to update hboot for us custom users in future releases or are following those steps a must for everybody?
Q13: What kernel# does the leaked Jelly Bean kernel have?
Q1:I want to install the jelly bean rom that has been leaked, how do i do this?
A1: The leaked jelly bean roms need a certain cid, not every cid number works. Either you are lucky enough to have it or not.
It is looking bad for branded phones at the moment
Q2: How do i check what my cid number is?
A2:You can download the so called "cid getter" from the app store. Your cid # should be listed on top. If not.....
Alternatively you can try the following command in fastboot:
Fastboot oem readcid
Q3: If i update my hboot, will i be able to use my previous ics rom?
A3: At the moment there is noway you can downgrade to ics once you have acquired jelly bean
Q4:When will we get an official jelly bean update?
A4: This month.
But when? It could be as soon as next week or as late as end of October.
Q5:Can i change my cid number, is there an alternative route? I MUST HAVE IT!!
A5:No. And no.
Q6: Must the hboot be updated in order to be able to upgrade to jelly bean in future?
A6:So far the answer seems to be leaning more towards a yes then a maybe or no.
Q7: How do i flash the jelly bean roms?
A7: 1. Relock bootloader: - fasboot oem lock
2. Boot device
2a. If device reboots to bootlader mode then flash a stock ruu and reboot to phone mode (ensure usb debugging is on - Settings/Developer options)
3. From command prompt enter: -adb reboot oem-78
4. Flash firmware: - fastboot flash zip nameoffirmwarefile.zip
5. Unlock bootloader again using your original unlock code: - fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
6. Flash custom recovery: - fastboot flash recovery nameofrecoveryfile.img
7. Flash boot.img from rom zip: - fastboot flash boot boot.img
8. Flash rom zip through recovery
9. Reboot and enjoy
Thank you ClydeB1 for the steps
Q8: On which cids to the firmwares work?
A8:
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__E11
cidnum: HTC__203
cidnum: HTC__102
cidnum: HTC__405
cidnum: HTC__Y13
cidnum: HTC__A07
cidnum: HTC__304
cidnum: HTC__M27
cidnum: HTC__032
cidnum: HTC__016
cidnum: HTC__J15
Q9: Will future updates make it possible for us to upgrade without updating hboot?
A9: It's too early to tell, however, from what i've read this looks like it won't be possible.
Q10: Should you install the new rom or wait? (This question might seem silly but i've seen people asking)
A10: That is up to you. However, i'll list the pros and cons
pros: More fluid, has a bunch of improvement as well as power saver option. Wireless lan as well as radio signal seem to get established much faster.
cons: Limited number of roms, not really much variation. It's a leak, and a leak has bugs - so don't expect it to run at 100%
That also means, no miui, no cm10,ice cold jelly(at least a lot of stuff in the original android development section) close to nothing at the moment. However, if jelly bean satisfies you then i see no reason why you shouldn't update.
Gaming:For the HoX game lovers out there, it's probably safe to say that you should not upgrade just yet. Certain kernels are probably not supported which enhance your gaming experience.
Q11:How can i check which RUU i need?
A11: Open cmd.exe and type "fastboot getvar version-main" without quotes.
Q12:Is there actually an easier method to update hboot for us custom users in future releases or are following those steps a must for everybody?
A12: Nope, at least not for s-on devices. -Mike1986_(ARHD)
Q13: What kernel# does the leaked Jelly Bean kernel have?
A13: 3.1.10
Perhaps add the steps again to flash:
Before you start take a backup of your sd card and ensure that your phone is charged, at least 70% to be safe
1. Relock bootloader: - fastboot oem lock
2. Boot device
2a. If device reboots to bootlader mode then flash the appropriate stock ruu for your device and then reboot to phone mode (ensure usb debugging is on - Settings/Developer options) (To find which ruu to flash run fastboot getvar version-main, or else you can try the odexed Stock rom + boot.img from Mike's thread)
3. From command prompt enter: - adb reboot oem-78
4. Flash firmware: - fastboot flash zip nameoffirmwarefile.zip (NB! If this step fails, immediately rerun the cmd and it should work the 2nd time)
5. Unlock bootloader again using your original unlock code: - fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
6. Flash custom recovery: - fastboot flash recovery nameofrecoveryfile.img
7. Flash boot.img from rom zip: - fastboot flash boot boot.img
8. Flash rom zip through recovery
9. Reboot and enjoy
Edit: Updated method for flashing from hboot 1.23 to 1.28
1. Relock bootloader - fasboot oem lock
2. Enter command - fastboot oem rebootRUU
3. Flash firmware: - fastboot flash zip nameoffirmwarefile.zip (NB! If this step fails, immediately rerun the cmd and it should work the 2nd time)
4. Unlock bootloader again using your original unlock code: - fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
5. Flash custom recovery: - fastboot flash recovery nameofrecoveryfile.img
6. Flash boot.img from rom zip: - fastboot flash boot boot.img
7. Flash rom zip through recovery
8. Reboot and enjoy
Another question to clarify ..
we must install the RUU after just lock the bootloader , right?
I understand that it is absolutely necessary, as the custom rom in "relocked" did not start, right?
can u list the CID's that are valid in the OP please?

For some it does appear to reboot, so try that first, if not then you will need to flash a stock ruu.

Firmware will only flash on the phones with the following CID
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__E11
cidnum: HTC__203
cidnum: HTC__102
cidnum: HTC__405
cidnum: HTC__Y13
cidnum: HTC__A07
cidnum: HTC__304
cidnum: HTC__M27
cidnum: HTC__032
cidnum: HTC__016
cidnum: HTC__J15
Perfect.
As we know that RUU corresponds with our CID? I for example, taking the HTC__102 ...
All of these questions is to help more people who may have the same doubts lol

Ok, I know that .. but in the name of the only places RUU asia, europe etc etc. .. CID does not indicate that RUU is for each
understand because in my case, a German HTC__102 the correct RUU would be this:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.17.401.2_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_274900_signed
correct? CID for all of Europe (not anchored to company phones of course) would be the same RUU

You just can use the (odexed) ROM + Recovery + Boot Image from Mikes Thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1546970
Works fine though. Did that on mine (HTC_102) no Problem

Yes, all of those codes that can currently install the JB rom would all use x.xx.401.x ruu

If .. I remember with the desire or sensation .. the damn RUU! can not flash RUU for Jupiter is far ... can not flash RUU that the LCD is dirty ... can not flash RUU that you have not eaten breakfast.
I will I have the RUU panic
I also have a question...
Until now I have received all the updates in time. I have a Cid HTC__32 BUT even though I have bought it from a separate store in Romania as an unlocked device, it boots with a vodafone logo and all the updates had Vodafone apps installed...
Am I risking anything here? Mine seems like a branded device but it is sim unlocked and cid as mentioned before.
I am a bit confused honestly. If noone knows for sure I wold rather wait for a more simple and secure road to jb.
Btw. If I didn't unlock the bootloader and didn't root yet, I can skip those first few steps right?

As long as your cid matches, you're good to go. Yea, no need to run the first steps as you are already locked and on stock.

I am having big trouble with my HTC One X
I am using for a long time Revolution and this morning I tried to make a update
Did everything what was printed here:
Did the boot 10.bat
Wiped data
Installed the zip Android_Revolution_HD-One_X_10.6.zip
After this nothing is happening even after 30 minutes waiting with the HTC Logo
Went to recovery but can't mount the USB message appears down: unable to open ums lunfile
What went wrong?
Is there a way to get into my memory card?
CID check

Did you checked your CID
Firmware Supported CIDs:
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__E11
cidnum: HTC__203
cidnum: HTC__102
cidnum: HTC__405
cidnum: HTC__Y13
cidnum: HTC__A07
cidnum: HTC__304
cidnum: HTC__M27
cidnum: HTC__032
cidnum: HTC__016
cidnum: HTC__J15
Check your CID using this commend: 'fastboot oem readcid'.
If your CID is not in this list above, unfortunately you can't flash JB, stay with ICS for now.
And did you use super wipe?

How to check this?
And why my phone will not boot?
How can I get into my internal memory?
My HTC One X was working great before the update ( it was 9.4 Revolution HD)
I did the Super Wipe as I mentioned in my opening message
Please tell me how to proceed further?
edit I went to fastboot but nothing such as fastboot oem readcid
Please any body knows how to get into my internal memory?
I tried really everything I know of even tried the restore but I see the phone coming into boot mode, here the music..see the simcard and again it just reboots all the time
I am not a real expert so please some one to help me? I really need my phone, don't have a spare one here and on the road...
Thanks, Peter
Facepalm. Did you actually read through the post. Go into fastboot, then in cmd go to your fastboot folder and type fastboot oem readcid. Check if your cid is supported.

Yes I did read it and sorry I am not so smart as you are, first of all I have very bad eyes and it takes some time even to login here
Could you again, or some one else tell me how to get back into any rom?
What I did, went to fastboot usb
Opened Win comander CMD
Typed: fastboot oem readcid
Reply from CMD not known command
Is there any software that can access my internal memory to upload another ROM?
EDIT I finally figure it out and I have HTC_032
So not supported so what next? Is my HTC bricked? Or is there a way to recover?
I just saw that my device is supported so why I can't boot?

Mate there's loads of guides on here. Might be worth just sticking to ICS for the meanwhile the bean is overrated. It'll get it easier to flash it eventually. Have you tried it the way Google intended yet?

In relation to the memory situation if your boot loaders unlocked. Use the HTC one x toolkit flash clockwork mod that way then you can mount the USB that method

Ok so i have an international (quad core) HTC ONE X. I successfully rooted and installed clockwork mod and the super user zip file.
Then i tried to install jelly bean following:
youtube: watch?v=elDvcVot7qo
during installation though, the installation was automatically aborted.
Now when i try to switch it on, it freezes when the htc one logo comes up.
I CAN enter the bootloader screen again.
Anyone have any idea what i can do to fix this?
Thanks

Now to continue installing jelly bean, do you know what i have to do?
If i go to install zip from sd card -> chose zip from sd card it says that "No files found" so i'm still lost..

Managed to mount it from recovery now. The SD was completely blank.
Before finding a guide and installing the custom rom now do i have to wipe or anything?

probably you got blank sd card because the firmware update erases everything for some people, however yes, you have to do a full wipe (there is an option to do it in some roms such as ordroid x, which i would suggest, in the arome installer).
i was going to install Jelly bean
do i do the
- wipe data/factory reset

in the recovery? (i'm using clockworkMod Recovery v5.8.4.0
Is your hboot successfully updated to 1.28. If you are still on a lower hboot like 1.12 you can only flash ics roms. I did not see the YouTube video can't play it now !

if he had been in ICS HBOOT that recovery, which is for jb, wouldn't have worked... however you have to upgrade to the latest 1.31 HBOOT

Relock your bootloader using the commend 'fastboot oem lock'.
Go into fastboot mode and type 'fastboot oem rebootRUU'.
Flash 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!
EDIT: you also have to have this CIDs:
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__E11
cidnum: HTC__203
cidnum: HTC__102
cidnum: HTC__405
cidnum: HTC__Y13
cidnum: HTC__A07
cidnum: HTC__304
cidnum: HTC__M27
cidnum: HTC__032
cidnum: HTC__016
cidnum: HTC__J15
to check which is your CID type:
Code:
fastboot getvar cid

Introduction
Hello everybody.
As I didn't find any post that would help me I decided to write it.
My problem was with flashing recovery or rooting wildfire s using Windows 8.1.
My PC doesn't want to see my phone when it in hboot/bootloader
So any ways to use adb service weren't for me. So, both of such important steps as rooting and custom recovery installing seems to be close to impossible.
And also when I tried to flash cwm.zip as PG76IMG.zip I used to see "Main Version is Older. Update fail." or endless "Parsing.. "
I was still able to flash recovery with root rights using rom manager or to root device using recovery
Solution part
1. I found surely compatible cwm recovery for my htc.
cwm 5.0.2.8 for gsm maybe (if last should be chosen) + I already was on 2.26.401.3 firmware
2. For dealing with main version problem I've increased mainver number into android-info.txt dramatically
Code:
modelid: PG7610000
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__N34
cidnum: HTC__203
cidnum: HTC__102
cidnum: HTC__405
cidnum: HTC__Y13
cidnum: HTC__A07
cidnum: HTC__304
cidnum: HTC__032
cidnum: HTC__016
cidnum: HTC__E11
[B][SIZE="5"]mainver: 44.26.401.3[/SIZE][/B]
hbootpreupdate:13
DelCache: 1
3. For dealing with parsing problem I've rebuilt zip-file with my 7-zip.
1. Extract files from your PG76IMG.zip
2. Archive files using store mode
As to recovery.zip, there are two files: recovery.img and android-info.txtEpilogue
After all of this I've used root.zip I picked somewhere and it worked on my little gray friend.
Now I'm dealing with another questions (why cwm 6.0.0.7 could not be installed)
Dear friends, feel free to correct me with everything you wish. From my words to thread destination. Use pm or reply here.
Hello everybody!
Actually I'm using the Android Revolution HD 12 and I would like to flash the ViperOne 6.0.0 ROM. The problem is my firmware version is 2.10.401.1 and I have S-ON.
I've flashed the ROM, but, obviusly, when I turned on my phone, it booted in bootloader mode.
I downloaded the RUU from the HTC site, it detected there was an avaible update, but it didn't work (Error 112: signature error). So I decided to extract the RUU.zip (following https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64299817&postcount=3), rename the file, put it in the SD card ad flash throught download mode. At that point phone shows this message: "Failed: -2, 12: fail to flash via downloadzip".
I know probably it is a silly question, but I have always used Samsung phones and I don't know what I should do. Can you give me any advice to solve my problem?

Thank you for taking the time to review the readme thread. It's frustrating to try to offer support to users who skip that step and expect us to re-iterate what is already offered there.
What RUU did you attempt to install? Version number is important here, as you can upgrade a certain distance via RUU and then must use the OTA after that (upgrading from firmware 3.x to 4.x requires an OTA install).
I had somewhat the same problem this weekend, I used a different RUU (with the same CID) and the flashing worked, though I wasn't trying to do the same thing as you

I'm trying to flash 4.23.617.1 version.
If I open "android-info.txt" file, I read:
Code:
modelid: 0PJA10000
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__J15
cidnum: HTC__031
cidnum: HTC__102
cidnum: HTC__A07

cidnum: HTC__016
cidnum: HTC__002
cidnum: HTC__Y13
mainver: 1.32.401.8
aareport:1
btype:1
My CID is H3G__402. Could it be the cause of my problem? If it's affermative, should I find an RUU who supports my CID or can I change the CID and flash the zip file I already have?

Take another look at the readme thread, particularly the post (#3) on RUUs. Your phone SKU must match the SKU of the RUU.
Follow the instructions on the thread to determine your SKU and then download the appropriate RUU.
Since you are S-ON, keep in mind that you can not jump straight to installing Android Nougat - you can flash up to Marshmallow (3.xx.xxx.xx), but will have to update via OTA to Nougat (4.xx.xxx.xx)
