Hi friends
im new here so this is my first post, what i want is help from any android expert in solving my problem. see i recently got the HTC one X plus and unlocked the bootloader, and installed clockwork mod recovery and rooted my phone. now when i receive the offical jb ota update, i cannot update it and it says error and i abort the installation and reboot the phone. and by the way all this unlocking and rooting is done thanks to Hasoons2000 tool kit, bless that developer who made this toolkit. so after researching reading many forums and find out that we have to use stock recovery image for htc one +. to fix the problem , i cant find any One X + stock recovery image all i can see are htc one X stock recovery image. but i need the one specific to my phone.
Since i dont want to risk bricking my expensive phone. so guys if you have the solution to my problem please do help me out.!!
no need
First I want to say that this is not Urgent and that's not problem...
also don't make 2 threads you can still bump this up by posting in it...
I think that you don't need this update because it is for stock ROM what you still have left on your phone and you wont see big difference.
For new user you can flash other, maybe even better custom ROM that will make small difference, but you must read what you chose. If you like stock than go for new versions custom ROMs with stock design.
Or if you really want to check out new HTC update you can go back to stock make update and then ROOT again...
But then first find out what will be in that update maybe we alredy have it in custom ROM.
I also had that update but I like stock and I dont want custom ROM yet. So I live without update and with stock ROM. If i want update I have Nandroid backup of stock ROM without root . One thing what I will install on stock is Renovate Gaming boost app I also use twrp recovery because it is touch recovery.
Htc One X+
I need help getting a recovery i have my bootloader unlocked and i am on a mactonish computer. Can you tell me how you got the recovery, the links etc. thank tou for your time

here's the situation
i have recently bought refurbished htc one x
i wanted to update it with offical jelly bean update it showed me
th update downloaded and i proceed to install it, i was a long time on the installing icon so i left my phone, when i got back it wouldnt turn on like the batery was empty
before doing the update it showed around 50% so i wasnt thinking about it, but it seems i died during the update
now - i cannot turn my phone on, its stuck on htc logo, i can access bootloader mode, it says i have hboot 1,12
radio 5.1204.162,29
the bootloader is locked
could someone tell me in simple steps how to bring it alive? is it even possible?
I havent flashed my one x in a while, but try charge it as much as you can while in recovery or bootloader mode.
Then try unlocking the bootloader using htcdev and Hasoons all in one toolkit from the dev section.
That will help you get a custom recovery installed and allow you to reinstall another firmware.
Not sure how much you already know so I apologise if this is basic info haha.
Also dont forget to flash the boot.img if you go with a custom rom
Good luck

Return it for repair if you can. Unlocking bootloader is the hard way out if you ask me.

A ruu might be a way out, but it's a long shot because the ruu doesn't need a unlocked bootloader.

Try this first.
I completely forgot about RUUs. You need to get the one that matches your CID

Sending it for repair isnt really an option as i bought the device and now im leaving the uk.
so they would send it back to me as ill be in another country.
also i opened it as i had the anthena problem but i solved it.
software speaking, as that is the problem, is it harf to fix?
i had couple of androids and customized all of them, but im new to htc and all that ruu,cids...
i dont mind custom rom, right now i just want to recover any functionality.
So if the ruu is the easiest way out is there a newbie tutorial? as i cant find it
and is unlocking the bootloader, flashing a custom recovery ans rom is so complicated to other devices?
i dont.know.what do you nean by flashing boot.img while flashing rom
When you run an ruu the computer end of it walks you through what to do. Make sure you have latest version of htc sync installed and do exactly what it says. Also returning it is the best option under normal circumstances. I did exactly that when ota wrecked my shift
Currently running stock 4.0.4 on HOX
i can do 2 - 3 updates OTA and they install just fine.
sometimes on 3rd or definitly 4th update it will get half way through the installation ( through STOCK recovery )
and reboot into an endless bootloop. and if it doent bootloop it just freezes.
Any help would be great!
CID TELNZ001
Hboot 1.12
Everything is stock and locked.
really wanting the update as i cant get ANY rom to boot AT ALL
and with all roms installed i have been flashing boot.img
but still fails to boot
i just want a working phone thats not on stock 4.0.4 (as updates insist they are installed)
i have made a few threads regarding help and so far nothing has helped
Even a suggestion.. or a link to a stable rom would be appreicated .. thanks

And please stop making new threads, i don't know where to look anymore ! And its agains xda rules.
Hiya, call me a noob, a super noob perhaps but I was very new to the whole android custom rom experience. I was running viper custom sense rom but as it had become buggy I decided to try and revert back to stock. Following guides I read on here and saw on YouTube I ended wiping the phone and re-locking the boot loader and flashing the stock recovery however I didn't realise that there were specific ruu needed for different models. I live in the UK and have the phone on the network three so I'm assuming its sim locked to h3g. I don't know what to do (if anything) now to get my phone working as I cannot unlock the boot loader to try installing a custom rom so don't know what to do... Is this phone fixable or now a full blown brick ? Thanks Aaron
Why can't you unlock your bootloader again?
Just perform the same steps as when you first unlocked it

Hi folks,
I bought a stock German Vodafone HTC M9 on Android 5.1 with software 2.10.410.1 HTC sense 7.0 and everything had been going fine until Friday, my battery died and when I plugged it back in it looks like it tried to update to Marshmallow, it looks like that failed but my main problem is that now I have no navigation softkeys, it looks like HTC sense isn't loading up as I have no themes either. I tried an OTA update (fails on the "System partition has unexpected contents" issue). Since that happened I've tried a soft reset, hard reset, install an RUU.exe ( get correct rom update utility, Error 131), so far no joy. I was considering installing TWRP and trying to go back to a stock recovery (I was talking to HTC support and they want me to send my phone to a repair centre, I'd prefer to try fix it myself). My question is, would reverting to a stock recovery even bring back my softkeys or am I barking up the wrong tree? I have unlocked the bootloader now and I will probably end up S-off and playing around with custom ROMs in future but for now I just want my phone to work, it's been a weekend and I'm getting phone withdrawals. I'm in work now so just browsing the forums and seeing what other people are doing but nobody seems to have the same softkey issue as me?

Fixed!!!!
Great success! Just in case anyone comes looking for solutions to problems similar to mine and wants to revert to stock firmware without S-OFF and finds an empty thread here's what I did ....
The way I went about it you'll need a micro SD (larger than 4GB I think, no maximum size according to Flippys instructions)
I followed this guide from KingInTheNorth up until the point where I had TWRP installed, this guide will get you through downloading files, tools and drivers unlocking bootloader and flashing TWRP. I DID NOT install SU as I didn't want to root my phone just restore it to stock so I could upgrade to Marshmallow through HTCs OTA update that originally broke my phone.

I followed Flippy498s guide to getting back to stock recovery (under the TWRP backups tab), this sheet also lets you download stock recoverys to match your firmware because Flippy seems to be a legend.

Team Win the folks who make TWRP make a fantastic tool, I started out trying to fix my broken phone and finished out wanting to try new ROMS and playing around to see what else I can do, at least now I have some idea where to start!
Have fun!
