[Q] Help, Need RUU

I'm a newbie but i just bought an htc one x international version and i guess from my constant flashing im totally stuck on the htc bootscreen and im sure i've tried everything there is to try but nothing although the roms all flash as well as the boot image, i've given up and am going to return my phone back to factory state and i've read i need an RUU but i don't want to flash the wrong one and i don't know which is the right one for my phone:
CID: HTC_622 not sure what that means but if someone can point me in the right direction or tell me how to even tell the proper one from the cid#. i'd really appreciate it.
please and thank you
paul

We need the main version to determine what ruu you exactly need....
Fastboot getvar version-main
Please post the result

You may also refer to this thread to determine which RUU you need.

622 should be .708

It's a list of RUUs, and he can just search his CID (with Ctrl + F) to get the download. Thought that would get him his RUU faster rather than having to wait for somebody to find out for him. Apologies for any harm done.

No mate its NOT a list of ruu's....its a list of nandroid backups. Installing them is completely different from a ruu ! No harm is done mate, don't worry. But its kinda wrong info.
A ruu, Rom Update Utility is an .exe file which you eexecute from the pc to the phone in bootloader mode with a locked bootloader which will flash back everything to stock for you. A nandroid backup has to be installed like a rom. Flashing the boot.img, wiping the phone and restoring the nandroid with a custom recovery

If I'm not wrong, the version should be 3.14.708.28 for CID__622.

Yes that is possible, but we need his main version to determine his hboot version. If he is on a older hboot than 1.12 then a 3.14 ruu will not work. If its released in the first place. Because of the big difference in updating the hboot from such a low one to a very high one. It all stands and falls depending the version number.
And when he is still on a 1.12 hboot we can't use a 3.14 nandroid backup

That's not possible .... A number like 3.14.708.** should come out of that and not the CID
Phone in the bootloader and the command
Fastboot getvar version-main
From the command prompt on the pc in the fastboot folder

and once i find the proper RUU is there a good simple tutorial in here somewhere? this is my second phone in as many weeks i recently bricked my fav phone my galaxy s2 and dont want that to happen to this one cause new unlocked phones aren't cheap.
please and thanks for any help

Download the matching nandroid backup and restore it, including flashing the boot.img from the nandroid backup. Then you are back to stock JB .....

ukrsetse morris
awesome that's great thanks alot, im going to give it a try now. little scared to mess it up but here it goes i'll post results.

Make sure you charge the battery before you start and dont forget to do a full wipe in the recovery before you restore the actual nandroid

DLing the files now but about this JB HBoot? do i just flash that same as the nan backup? any particular order to flash them?
i've read the thread and doesn't cover my concern. theres 2 files for me, nan backup and jb hboot and both have boot.img do i do them both one at a time flashing each boot image? sorry for all the questions this is last one
looks like im just restoring from a backup (nandroid) i'm going to try but i have tried to restore from 3 backups on my phone through cwm already and im still stuck at the htc boot screen hope this works.

[Q] Using another one's Nandroid which has a lower Versionnr to restore Stock

Good Day,
I am currently trying to go back on Stock and stumpled over this thread.
Unfortunatly I did no backup when I rooted and installed another Rom, but the Author states that I may use another one's Backup.
My CID is O2___102 and some kind User named treebill uploaded his O2___102 backup. So far so clear.
But
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main
tells me my HOX is currently using 2.17.207.2 while the backup of treebill is 2.17.206.2.
In fear of bricking my device, I am not sure if I can use this backup with a lower Versionnumber. I did a quick search but couldn't find an answer. My HBOOT is 1.12.000 if that is somehow an information of interest.
And on another Point: If I may use this backup and successfully restore stock, will my bootloader be locked again?
Great Thanks in Advance to the noble Responders

Are you sure you got yourself the right versions ?
Also do
Fastboot oem readcid
Sure you wrote down the right version number here ?

Mr Hofs said:
Fastboot oem readcid
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This command delivers me <bootloader> DEBUG: cid: 02___102 which concurs with the cid of treebill.
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main
tells me version-main: 2.17.207.2
And this h ttp://i.imagebanana.com/img/ww1dkc2n/cid.PNG is the backup I want to use (remove space in h ttp). It seems to be of an earlier version, so I don't know if I may use it.

That's kinda strange, I have seen the 207 software but it had CID 02__001
Ow and you can try the backup that is no problem, you will not brick your device ! The only thing is that the phone might not update !
And in this process you do not need to relock the bootloader !
You have 3 options.
1: try the 206 nandroid backup, flash back the stock 2.17 recovery and try to update. If it doesn't update ....no problem , go back to the latest backup
2: try to scoop up a 207 nandroid backup or RUU. But i didn't see no ruu with a 2.17.207 number
3: do a standalone firmware flash to lift your hboot to a JB one and flash a new JB rom of your choice

First of all: Thank you for your answer. I was busy studying so forgive me for posting this late.

If I understood right, I need the correct Ruu in both cases. I found this OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_O2_DE_3.14.207.27-2.17.207.2_release_2996435hle0dx8i1s01kza.zip File size: 350.92 Mb through google on roomyshare. The 02 DE looks to be the 02___102 cid, even through it is not really stated there.
I am a little unsure if this is the right thing. The 3.14.207.27 irritates me.

Its a ota file. Its of no use because its the official ota but it can't be flashed like a full ruu

[Q] HBOOT CID problem

Hi guys,
let me fill you in on my situation.
I live in The Netherlands, last year i got my one x.
My service provider is vodafone, current HBOOT version is 1.12 and my CID is VODAP102
At the moment i''m running slim bean 3.1.0 official (android 4.1.2)
I would like to upgrade to a JB ROM but i cant because my HBOOT version is to low.
I followed the instructions from the link below (short version: lock phone, fastboot oem RUU, etc..)
But after locking the phone it wont boot into RUU and it wont flash the new HBOOT version.
I checked and i downloaded the correct HBOOT for my CID.
I followed the steps in the video to the letter but always fails when trying to reboot into RUU and after that to flash the new HBOOT.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkD3CeSecb8
My best guess would be that the CID that my phone returns to me is not the CID my phone realy has.
Because when i look up the CID it is assosiated with either vodafone UK or vodafone germany not vodafone NL.
Can u help me ?

If you have a backup of stock ICS rom, restore this and lock your phone.
Take the upgrade by OTA and re-unlock your phone with the first code by htc.
p.s. SlimBean works on 1.2x hboot?

I searched a backup of ics or the ruu for Jelly, but i don't found nothing.
I hope that someone can post the backup or RUU.

At least the 1.29. The 3.14 is not going to work because of your low hboot. If you want to be certain you need to do a fastboot command
Fastboot getvar version-main
When the number matches your are good to go

That ruu does not work. When you unlock the bootloader and flash a custom rom you need to make nandroid backup. That ruu could not wipe your phone because it doesn't install at all ! Now you can only return to stock with a stock nand backup.
So what's the issue ? What did you do ?
You previously installed the 2.17 ruu. Then updated the phone ..... and then ?

5: make a full wipe in recovery (do NOT wipe the sdcard)
6: install the 4.1.1 rom.zip
Make sure it's a rom with a main above 3.16.xxx like 3.20. Or 3.18......
