Hello, my problem is that I updated my phone's Hboot, but my phone is S-ON and I updated it but it needed S-OFF. Now when I Turn it on it gets stuck on the Boot. Please help me! Thanks alot :laugh:
Well since you updated your hboot have you flashed a Sense JB ROM? Because there would be absolutely no point in upgrading hboot if you're not going to be using a Sense JB ROM.
Don't worry about the S-OFF stuff, you don't need it.

Did it successfully update to latest hboot? Have you reunlocked bootloader? Have you reflashed custom recovery? Have you flashed custom ROM?

Nope, it did not update to the latest Hboot. I have no problems with the custom recovery and no I have not flashed a custom rom

have you tried restoring a nand back up with your custom recovery ?
sounds like you are stuck in boot loop,fast boot erase cache should work if the nand back up will not flash ( restore )

If the hboot didn't stick its relatively easy..take everything back to stock..or just update recovery again
Try various Roms...some can just simply be a pain in the ass

Hello.
Earlier today is was on CM9 and it runned without a problem before i had to reboot and then it didn't boot. I've since then tried to falsh many ROMs and none boot. I even tried the official 2.3.3 RUU which booted but now when i try to flash any ROM it won't boot. I can get in to hboot and recovery but nothing boots.
Any help here?
You just flashed an official RUU? Obviously you'll lose root, custom recovery and all because of that.
Check bortak in stickies of this section.

EDIT: I tried a rooted stuck ROM and that booted So the problem solved it self!
Hi everyone,
Hopefully an easy question for those more experienced than I...
I have previously rooted my OneX and installed custom roms on ICS. I restored original rom, re-locked bootloader and flashed original recovery so I could install the JB update over the air. This all went smoothly.
I used over the air update as my CID wasn't on the list here (yet):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376
I would like to re-root my device and start installing the custom JB roms. Can I just unlock the bootloader again, install CWM recovery, then start flashing the JB roms (and boot.img) as before, using this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592355
Or is there something I need to wait for?
Thanks,
Craig

I'm seeing something about HBoot in some of the custom roms. I can't seem to find a clear explination, but is this something that was updated when I updated OTA, or does it need to be modified again to run the custom roms?
Thanks,
Craig
So what i understand you are on stock JB at the moment ?
If so yes you can unlock,install custom recovery and flash JB roms the same way as you did on ics
You can check the top of the bootloader if it says hboot 1.31 or higher you are good to go

So I want to go back to 4.1.. I flashed 4.2 the non conventional way (unlocked bootloader, flashed rom, flashed boot.img)...
So i'm assuming to go back to 4.1 is the same procedure right? just like flashing a custom rom?

True, if you want to flash custom 4.1 ROM, and if your hboot is not updated to 1.7x
If you want to return to stock, go visit nandroid collection thread. There is a solution for you.
If you updated hboot to 1.7x, I don't think you can revert to 4.1. Android.
Thanks, i don't think i updated the hboot

if hboot is 1.7x you need a 4.1 rom with at least 3.18 base, or touch won't work...

i've read somewhere that it's possible, but i've never tried... my hboot is 1.39
I also didn't bother updating to official 4.2.2, as there was no real benefit out of it (hboot 1.36, methinks )
For downgrade you should use RUU..

Nope because a ruu can't downgrade s-on devices. Only a nandroid backup can be used. And even those have to fit all the right criteria otherwise the touchscreen won't work

You could flash a custom recovery through bootloader and then flash a custom rom. without downgrading.

If you are S-OFF that will stay. So you can flash a custom recovery and a rom. You might need to use the PD98IMG way to flash the recovery if you do not have eng s-off

The reason why the downgrade was needed was because, Someone would want to root his or her device without changing the rom. In this case, the loop hole that made rooting possible was closed in the 2.3 update. So if you were to try and root your device with the 2.3 rom, it would fail. In order to achieve the root previllage, you had to downgrade to an android version where the loop hole that allows the phone to be rooted is still available.
But in your case, if you want to flash a custom rom, there is no need to downgrade. All you need to do is flash a recovery by the PD98IMG.zip way.
Or to flash it using the fastboot commands from pc, you could flash an ENG-HBOOT via the PD98IMG.zip in bootloader then use your pc(fastboot commands ) to do whatever you want.
Got it now?

Yes, I flashed boot.img. I installed it from the pc on command mood.
N.B: The devoloper said to install JB TWRP recovery. But it didn't respond. Nothing was working. So I used CWM. Does S-On matters?

My hboot is 1.7+ & I tried mySENSEdx+ RC3.0 (JB | Sense 4+)
At bootloader it also says some features are disabled. What are those? Is that creating the prob?

You can't instal ICS ROM your hboot is to high you can flash custom ROM based on JB 4.2.2 and newer if you wamt something close to stock use ARHD or Mahimus from android section if you want AOSP try in original android section and be sure you are Endeavoru and use rom downloaded from this forum.
Forget about ICS roms you can't flash on hboot after 1.12 only JB and not to old JB because tuch will not work on older JB base
Should I install recomended recovery for the specific rom or anyone will do?
