Hi,
I have a rooted HTC One X on eMobile network in Ireland. I am currently running ARHD 9.7.2 I was wondering if there is a ROM someone could recommend for my HOX. Can i run Viper 3.2.2?
My HBOOT is 1.12.0000 so don't think i can use Viper. can anyone recommend something similar to viper that i can use on my HOX? I am in ireland so does that mean only certain ROMS will work on my HOX? Could someone explain?
Thanks in advance.
Rob
There is no "best rom", and asking for that is unfair towards the developers of the different roms. There are several sense based and aosp based roms. Try them out and judge them yourself.
If you want to run JB based sense roms, you need to check if your CID supports an hboot at 1.31 or higher -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376
But personally I like and use ViperX, since it is based on the newest firmware from HTC with sense, and has a lot of nice tweaks.
Thanks emperact.
I hope I haven't placed this post in the wrong thread. If i have moderators, i apologies and could you move it to the appropriate thread.
I am also looking for something a rom based on the newest firmware from HTC with sense for my HOX. My CID is 1.12.00000 so it won't support Viper.
Is there anything you could suggest that has newest firmware from HTC that would work on my HOX. New to all this rooting and no matter how much reading you do, you still want to get some advice from people who have experience.
thanks for the reply.
Rob
As i bought my Phone in Ireland does that make it a international Phone. So can use international ROMS?
U have to choose for yourself. Famous onces are ARHD, Insertcoin, MaXimus, ORdroid, Bindroid, MIUI. I've got maXimus and like it. Just try some and see for yourself.

Will the above roms work with my HTC One x? could you send me the link to MaXimus rom that will work on my HOX. HBOOT is 1.12. 00000 S-ON
Thanks man.
Rob
Why don't you just update your hboot? If it is supported ofc. Anyways, if you are on 1.12 and want a Sense rom, I would recommend you to try out ViperX 2.7.1 which is ICS.
If you want to try an AOSP based rom, there are plenty of them here.
Please check your CID-
after this we can know, which roms you can run and will be able t advice some
Hi Guy's,
After a bit of playing around i am finally running Viper3.2.2

Oké, please next time don't open a best rom thread
Just do a little bit of research before.

It's the RUU of the stock ROM so should you ever need to go back to stock you can.
As for what ROM to start with, a lot of people suggest LeeDroid as it's an easy introduction to a rooted ROM yet still has Sense. Not sure how up-to-date it is these days, mind
My first ROM and still using it, is LeeDroid and I havent even bothered to look at others, it works perfect, very fast and give you A2SD+.

LeeDroid is kinda outdated, why not try some GB(Gingerbread) Roms?
Depends if the person likes Sense. I do so having tried the (buggy) 2.3 ROMs available I'll be waiting for a Sense-based 2.3 ROM
Gingerbread roms are fine really. Working for me no problem.
I think there should be a dedicated thread about roms because this is prob the 100th thread on what rom should I choose or what ever this week. Seriously.
I just successfully rooted and installed my first custom Rom (LeeDrOiD 2.3d).
Much <3 for all the help!
Cheers.

hey guys,
i'm kinda new to whole android stuff - i have a desire HD stock ROM, no modifications. I'm really interested in flashing it to "android revolution 3.1". So, i read the guides about how to flash rom's.
My only open question is: How can i go back to stock ROM? The Desire HD is running 1.72 atm, and i maybe want to get back to it, if i'm unhappy with custom rom. I read about RUU, but i can't find a RUU for DHD 1.72. It's an unbranded DHD. Would be nice if someone here could help me.
greets!
afaik there are no 1.7x RUU's out.
the 1.7x was just a FOTA of the older 1.3x .
just get your (branded/notbranded) RUU of the 1.3x .
should be fine though.

I m sure you won't want to get back to stock after you get your hands on custom roms
But anyways you ll find 1.72.xx RUU here: http://xdafil.es/index.php?path=DesireHD/RUU/
Plus you ll have a backup of your stock ROM before you flash a new rom. So should not be any problem anyway.
Hi Experts.
I recently got a HTC One X, it is the UK Orange version, and i live and use it in India.
android ver - 4.04
sense - 4.1
softwre no - 2.17.61.3
htc sdk api - 4.23
kernel - 2.6.39.4
i had installed a custom rom to my Incredible S couple of months back.
and with a lot of courage, i have Rooted my brand new HOX
now.. i really like to know -
1 - which stock like Rom do you experts suggest for my model ( shouldnt be much different from stock, but faster, with mods & without bloatware & Latest)
2 - should i also flash my radio? How? which one?
Any other mods that you suggest for better battery management, faster.
please .. i know that similar questns are asked, but this is more specific.
Post links, and that would suffice
waiting desperately
someone?? anyone?? plz help....
I would recommend the viperX Rom to you from team venom. It's great. Probably the best Rom in the way of tweaks. Download that then do the OTA updates. I also like to recommend the bricked kernel as it has a swipe to wake option and with vipers tweaks you can easily overclock and change frequencies the best ics in my opinion

reading the forums i just learnt tht since i have a quadcore processor, it is an international version, and not AT&T or anythng else.
can someone give me the link to the correct forum, so that i can look, check and install anythng tht i want :laugh: without bricking my phone?

I would agree.. ViperX rom is one of the best sense based ROMs out there. There is loads of customisation options.
Also another great ROM would be AndroidRevolution HD.
AndroidRevolution HD --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562603
Team Venom ViperX --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1745176

So you have the international one x ? Flash from this forum !
Give a try to latest insertcoin rom (13).
Furthermore if u want:
In a fileexplorer (es explorer or solid explorer) go to root folder -system-apps and delete unneeded apps with caution (u need to know what u are doing). If u want i can create a minimized version of it 4 u and upload it... (whithout medialink, htc location, video editor, stock wallpapers, without live wallpapers and all that crap - at least i like it without them). Then u'll get a perfectly sleak rom.
I tried maximus rom, venom, renovate, revolution HD...
Believe me, this one is the smoothest around...
So long story short, let me know if you want my lighter version of insertcoin.

when you carrier will release the JB update then you will be able to flash JB roms, at the moment you can only install ICS roms
ok ... thanks.. so now what i understand is...when Orange releases JB, i still wont get the OTA coz i am rooted, but i will be able to Flash JB Roms then.
as of now i can flash any of the ICS roms from this forum.
any roms? do i need to worry about anythng else if i m installing for ex: a viper or rev HD

Hi folks.
I upgraded to hboot 1.39 a while ago to be able to install viper x jelly bean.
What I didn't realize at the time was that the gps would stop working.
I've done some research and what I found is that it can't be downgraded unless you have s-off, which I don't.
So question is: is it really impossible, or is there some miracle cure that I've not come across?
Either downgrade directly, or getting s-off?
Or if no such thing exist, is there a ROM with sense, that supports hboot 1.39 and gps?
Best regards, Norway.

Yup, all of them!
The GPS issue only applies if you flash an AOSP-based 4.1.x ROM. On 4.2.x and Sense ROMs GPS does work.
Did you remember to flash the boot.img?

I can't seem to fin any 4.2.2 roms with sense, but if I understand you correctly, Viper X 3.5.0 should give me gps?
I meant it works on every 4.2.2 ROM you can find, in addition with every Sense ROM including Viperx 3.5.0.
Sent from my IceCold One X
Got you. Thing is, I get no gps signal on Viper 3.5.0. Tried gps status , and it's not picking up any satelites...
Did flash the included boot.img yeah.
any ideas?

Hello guys,
i'm an owner of HTC one M8, with unlocked bootloader from htcdev but with S-ON.
I just want to go back to stock rom, because every custom rom i try has some issues (battery life mainly too short! I dont know if this is because of firmware, i
dont know how to update it or even how to see what is my one now).
But, the only guides i see are with S-OFF devices. Is this possible to to it with s-on?
Also, i would be s-off if there is a still working method, i've seen firewater one doesnt work anymore so there are no other solutions.
EDIT: at least guys, can you tell me how to check and/or update my firmware?
You post this on wrong section .. should be in Q&A ... I'm asking a mod to move this thread to Q&A
Read this thread, it is for both S-On and S-Off to get back to stock - http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
First thing to check is fastboot getvar all result (delete serial & imei no.) then we will know what you need to do
Try MIUI7 rom

listen you can try MIUI based rom for htc it have great battery backup compare to the other marshmallow based roms,
so you first try miui rom(4.4.4) for htc , it have some bugs like google text to speech isnt working but battery backup is awesome. rom is stable though. and you cannot rollback to stock using ruu when your device is S-ON , use sunshine for S-OFF, lol pay $25

Ok i would like to not pay lel.
THE PROBLEM in using custom roms is, i think, the firmware, because i just flashed trough fastboot the roms, without updating any firmware.
I tryed Android revolution HD and Skydragon but booth had battery problems, i mean the battery was going down too quickly also with screen off (from stats, in 6 hours i say 3 hours deep sleep, 3 hours 300 mhz cpu so it didnt "relax"!
I really want top say thanks to ckpv5 that helped me in PM's and linked me his own guide to restore to stock rom, it worked and it's all perfect! Thanks man!
Just a last question: now i have the stock htc one rom, so i'm doing OTA's. This means my firmware is automatically updated with them?
So if in future i want to install a custom rom MM based, i won't need to flash firmware?
Yes firmware is updated with the OTA .. after the latest OTA 6.12.401.4, you can install latest TWRP and install MM custom ROMs .. no need firmware update anymore
Very well, thanks mate.
for the moment i'll leave the stock rom.
I will use a MM custom rom when they will be based on official MM rom for htc one m8, and not porting from M9/A9

There have been MM based Sense custom ROMs since before the new year (Viper, Skydragon Sense, Wolla, ARHD).
S.ROM is the only A9 port.
