Before you download it make sure CID matches. Otherwise the install will abort.

How to remove bloatware
HI Guys
Ive read through the forum link above all 24 pages and downloaded the relevant Stock Roms, the original from HTC and the Vodafone one. Ive got a little confused reading through all the posts. To flash the original stock rom over my current vodafone branded one what steps exactly do i need to take. People are mentioning the unlock via htc dev in the forums is this required to take it back to the original stock rom. I didnt see any clear steps on how to get this done. Anyone provide any help. Ive flashed my old phone numerous times but at present am a little worried about using the htcdev way. I know the developers are working on s-off is any of this needed for what im trying to do??
Thanks in Advance
Gav

you don't need to unlock to flash an official ROM.
Best way is to grab the RUU file that is correct for your device and flash that way. Its a windows executable you run whilst your phone is connected via fastboot.
edit: that would bring you back to the vodaphone crap. whoops. disregard but yes you don't need S-OFF or unlocked blootloader to flash original rom

Hi Mate
Thanks for this, just a quick question then im currently running 1.26.161.2 (vodafones ROM) and i want to use the original stock one from HTC 1.26.401.2 can i just overwrite vodafones with this one?
Gav

I too am a bit of a noob and have a voda branded hox on its way to me. I was under the impression that although we may be able to flash stock htc hox firmware onto the device, we won't be able to it 'properly' because of no proper s off or boot loader..... Or something..... And therefore won't be able to receive any OTA updates afterward....
Or am I talking rubbish and we CAN actually nicely and simply flash stock firmware on and forever after have no issues receiving offiCIAL OTA?
Also gav I don't even know if any stock RUU exist yet...?

Hi Mate
Yes i have the stock and vodafone rom downloaded i got it on here from the developers section. We should be able to install these RUU updates as it doesnt require s-off or to use the htcdev method as least from my understanding.

Sorry to bump this thread, but I'm currently looking for the Original Stock ROM for the HTC One X.
I came across this thread in my search, but the link in the first post is no longer active.
Is there an updated link ?

Mate, first you must know exactly what are you looking for. There are numerous links around here with different versions of stock ROMs.
You need your phone's CID and main version.
Only after that you will search, download and flash the stock ROM that ffits your phone.

I've checked my CID (Using command - fastboot getvar cid)
My CID comes up as : None
I am currently on Revolution HD 7.x ROM and wanted to update to the new 19.x ROM
The problem is when I try updating the hboot, it constantly fails.
I've downloaded the "x.xx.401.x - World Wide English (WWE)" version
A friend of mine has a stock standard One X from Vodafone and JB was just pushed out as an update for her.
I want to try and restore my phone back to the original ROM for that purpose. (also helps in case of warranty)
Have had a look but cant seem to find the original Vodafone ROM anywhere.

Download CID getter from Play Store. It should help.
Also fastboot getvar version-main is important for you, too.
Do not try to flash incorrect firmware!

This is good news! You need main version also. Then, go and check HERE. There are explanations and files that will help you. Download and flash (as per instructions) nandroid backup that matches your version. Once that finished, you will soon get notification about available update. Accept it, and you will have Vodafone stok JB. After that, do what ever you want with your phone

RUU Stock

Hi
I have accidentaly wiped system and sd card in CWM and cant mount via usb. I cannot find a stock HTC One X RUU and I had downloaded o2 RUU (would prefer carrier branded as want to return!!! although doesn't matter) but that was corrupted and downloaded off a chiness site that has stopped hosting it!
Please help me!
Doesnt matter if all you can find is a recovery that you can mount USB!! That would be great!!
Thank you very much guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you very much for all of your help! I have solved my issue.
I needed to download the stock o2 uk RUU and relock the bootloader and run the program in fast boot. I have just made my nandroid backup and planning to upload it so anyone else can use it! (it wont have my details on, just as if the os has been installed from scratch)
Steven

Please read before posting/flashing/wiping.
What is the CID of your device. You can only flash a stock RUU with matching CID.
So you need to download the correct RUU for your device.
All stock RUUs available are here

Keep thread on topic please

How do I find my CID?

If you would have spent 10 seconds looking in the Dev thread you would have found a list of all the available RUU's to download.
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543604)
Download your required RUU, boot into Fastboot-USB and run.
Next time be more careful and fully understand what you are doing before doing it otherwise you will end up with a £600 paperweight.

Flash the one that says o2 UK then?
Though I also wonder. How do you match CID to the firmware package? When I try to get my CID in fastboot or w/e, it says no CID like i've read around here. Any thoughts?

i unlocked the bootloader so if the op did the same their CID will be "none" and therefore the RUU wont flash.

Okay, I guess i will have to wait until the clockwork recovery gets USB mount!

Sorry but if you just want to return to stock you can do
1. Restore you nandroid backup, flash stock recovery and then relock the bootloader.
OR
2. You can flash stock recovery, relock bootloader and then run the RUU that corresponds to your CID/region.

I am probably answering my own question my CID is H3G_001. There doesnt appear to a 3 mobile ruu at all. Any help here? Fortunately its not urgent but may be handy if/when they release the upgrade

how are you guys checking CID?
Using terminal emulator? do you need root?
I tried ADB shell command since the fastboot command doesn't work, and I get error:device not detected

CID getter from the market.

I dont know, sorry. I do know though that mine came originally with 02 uk rom and that CID will only work with the one rom that came originally with your phone. It may be different for unlocked devices.

[Q] Various Problems (relock & update to JB)...HELP!

Hi Guys
Hope you can help me
So i have a HOX from the swiss carrier "Swisscom" ; branded
CID Getter tells me: VODAP110
Recovery Mode tells me:
HBOOT 0.95.0000
Radio: 1.1204.105.14
fastboot getvar version-main tells me something like
1.29.166.13 (or 14...)
when i relocked i was also getting an error like : error: too many links...
i am currently using ARHD 9.7.1 and wanted to update to JB.
i am seriously a bit confused which nubmer i have to look for
i some threads the speak about the CID, in others about the RADIO.....
what i did;
i relocked my bootloader and tried the following RUU:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_Vodafone_CH-DE_1.26.166.2_Radio_1.1204.90.13_release_251279_signed.exe
which resulted in my HOX to give several errors and not starting again.
i luckily could unlock again and install ARHD 9.7.1 again. What am i doing wrong?
THNAKS A LOT FOR YOUR ADVICE!!

You need the branded voda RUU that starts with 1.29 and not 1.26
We can't downgrade because we don't have S-Off ....yet !
The steps you took where fine, locking the bootloader and running the ruu......it es just the wrong one

thanks, do ypu know where i can get it? as far as i know the OTA for this phone is out by now...
what i dont understand, this stock RUU is just like putting the phone back to the status it was when i bought it right? so then i start it and make the official OTA?

First you have to run the right ruu, after that it's back to stock. After that you are able to receive the JB update (when the provider rolls it out)
You can search for a ruu on htcruu.com or.the file factory !

so this means this RUU is basically the one which was on the phone when it was released? that i very strange, because i can not find it...
nowhere, not on HTCRUU or filefactory..

The possibility exist that they didn't release the ruu !
Maybe you can find one that starts with 2.17 ! Upgrading is possible ....

Well if the ruu has not been released its just not out there .... Plain and simple
If you can find a ruu with exactly the same.numbers but starts with 2.17 instead of 1.29 (which might be released) you can flash the 2.17 ruu.
Because with a ruu we can do upgrades but no downgrades

you think this should work?

Yeah i think it will !
Put the phone in fastboot USB mode and relock the bootloader
Fastboot oem lock
Keep the phone in fastboot USB menu and run the ruu.exe from pc with admin rights !

Cool it worked fine, i have now the branded JB, recieved by OTY, Thanks for the input.
BUT do i have to make a Firmware update now as well if i want ARHD 18.0 ?
the file from here: 3.14.166.27 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376 ?
THX

If you received the JB ota you have already the needed JB hboot, check in the bootloader if it's 1.31 or higher. Then you are ready to run a custom JB rom and no need to update the firmware/hboot
You have to re unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery ! And please do a NANDROID BACKUP right after flashing the custom recovery and copy it to a safe place on the pc ! This way you avoid problems if you want to go back to stock !!!

Hello guys,
I just want to thank both of you. I was in the same situation as discussed here and I just solved the problem with your help!
Thanks a lot!

Another Airplane Mode Stuck Problem

Hi,
I'm really having trouble with my HOX.. This is the limited edition HOX (half black and half white) Cushnie et ochs.
Problem:
-Stuck on airplane mode(turning off)
-No IMEI and Baseband
-Heats up
--Sometimes network signal shows up (imei and baseband shows up as well) BUT can't receive/send message or can't make calls (when this happens it doesn't heat up)
--It worked one time but back to the same problem when rebooted
Details:
-ENDEAVORU PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
CID-111111111
HBOOT 1.39.0000
RADIO 5.1204.162A.29
-Acquired with a superCID
-unlocked
-currently running ViperX 4.0.5
Actions taken:
-RUU
-Flashed custom ROMs
-Flashed boot.img's
-Flashed kernel's
-Flashed lower radio version(doesn't seem to have an effect coz radio in HBOOT is the same as in Settings.(compared when baseband appeared)
-Wiped everything that needs to be wiped
--Still no luck--
----Can't flash a nandroid backup coz i don't have one(if somebody can point me to the right direction i will flash it immediately)
Hoping somebody here will and can help me.
Thanks in advance!

Hoping somebody will help me..
Can't flash nandroid backup coz i don't have one and i don't know whaT to download because i don't know the original CID of this HOX if it matters.

2 months ago I receive 2 hox have problem like you. No imei, baseband. Still wifi. Stuck in airplane mode. No sim card detect. I try to re flash ruu, rom, radio but nothing better. Last try, i use box to s-off both hox, after that i try to downgrade the radio version of hox, one hox become normal. One hox still problem. After few day contact htc and friend, they confirm some hox have problem with hardware. Finnaly, i replace a new hox mainboard.
I think u should return it to htc for mainboard replace. It is a hardware problem

You can't. It's just a update, not a full rom. Do you try androidruu website? You can download sense 4 android 4.0.4 for low radio. Or just download radio img and flash it via bootloader.

EDIT: If nothing changed go to ICS rom and see what will happend if nothing changed maybe is a hardware fault.
When you run fastboot getvar all are you see the IMEI in information?

Ok. Battery drain very fast because phone alway search signal but stuck in airplane. Is your phone hotter than normal phone on the top speaker?
Get var all alway display the imei and baseband, it's normal with other phone. But it't cannot show in phone when boot into rom
I think problem is not a rom.
Some information i hear about china, they remove the cpu tegra 3 and replace other and it become normal. I haven't test yet because i don't have a tegra 3 cpu for replace

[Q] Begginer help

Hello, i just bought an HTC One X phone, it is running android 4.0.4 and sense 4.1 and it says in the info software version 2.17.401.2 , it is also rooted so i can't do OTA update. Now i want to have the latest officiel rom or custom rom ased on the official one, my question is where do i go from here, is it possible to go back to stock and do official update from there, or what do i have to do to, i don't mind using a custom made rom if it is a stable one.
EDIT: Some more info, the device says unlocked when i boot in recovery, i have standard recovery i think (white screen with 3 droids bottom)
HBOOT-0.96-0000
i can choose fastboot or recovery, simlock ...etc
Thanks for the tips guys.

I bet there is a ruu available for you with that low hboot, you ha e to put the phone fastboot mode/bootloader and run a fastboot command from the pc

Oke, start with charging the phone to 100% i will get the links and things you need .....
Edit :
In steps :
Put the phone in fastboot usb mode and relock the bootloader with this command :
Fastboot oem lock
Then keep the phone in the bootloader and execute this ruu with administrator rights

When the ruu is finished and the phone boots into the OS you go to the settings - about - software update menu and check manually for updates. When they are available you continue to install these updates (there should be multiple updates)
If you don't get updates you can report back here and i can help you further to get updated.

The RUU says asia, is it ok if my phone is from UK?

Then it's imported into the UK, that's probably why they put the 2.17.401 rom on it ! It's the correct ruu.
The phone is originally from Asia !

Ok i did the RUU but now i only have english and asian languages, can i flash a european RUU after this one now ? it's annoying like that for me
EDIT: it does not detect OTA updates, am i even more screwed now ? or is there hope to go back to stock european version ?

You have English ? Whats the difference then ? And no you are not screwed. Relax .... in the end when we are done it will be all fine.
Next step :
Run this ruu too and check then again for updates ......

I prefer french, but it's still ok, i am downloading this one, i'll keep you updated when i get the file and install it i have very slow internet sadly.
And i am very thankful for the help

No problem. After this ruu we can also put a custom rom (like stock) on it that has the French language !

oh well i'll go for it and then put in a custom rom, i am coming from a desire z which i used sooooo many roms on. just got tired of custom roms. i'll report back when done.

where can i find some help to put in a custom ROM? one very close to stock please already two days since i bought the phone now i really need a working phone i should've tried to flash directly, ow i need to re unlock and all right?

thanks to @Mr Hofs
instructions are in every rom thread OP

okok i finally got that RUU (yes my internet is that bad lol) and it says it cant update the phone tellsme to get the correct file @Mr Hofs, but now i found via OTA a 1Mb Update i applied it, and after reboot now i see a 300+Mb update Android 4.1.1 and Sense 4+, i am installing it, i'll keep you guys updated. I appreciate your help thanks again.

Oke and after that you should get even more ota's all the way up to 4.2.2 sense 5. After that we will get your French language back

It would be just great, i love the phone, great device like always by HTC, well now we have to wait with my slow internet to get all that done.

No problem. I will check here from time to time anyway. No rush.....rushing things ends up in errors

The phonei s finally updated to android 4.2.2 ad sense 5, but now i have a very strange WiFi issue, wifi works for 10-30 seconds then nothing, it says it is connected but i have no network or internet access until i turn it off and on again, what can that be ?
EDIT: After investigatin the forum a little, it seems like a lot of people are having the same issue after the update :s, well i will end up using custom roms i guess lol
