Hard reset?? - HTC One X

Does hard reset remove updates,does it returns android to 4.03??
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

If you are officially on 4.0.4 or on JB no, it will bring the phone back to factory state on the latest software you installed. And i am talking about official software

Thanks,I don't know what to do,after every update one more problem,yesterday I updated 4.04 version with some small update 1-2mb,and it kinda mess up my screen,when I start up phone it has pure white,then changes to some ugly yellowish white,then it changes back again,and now I don't know if I'am tripping or it has yellowish tint,and while I type this message screen sometimes flickers bounces up,what is wrong with this phone,I'am starting to be very disapionted

Lol your right when I flip it the signal boosts but when I hold it normally it completely looses signal. Isn't there a real solution for this problem cz imagine yourself holding your phone up side down

lol.
you are the guy who did knew about rooting and stuff..
1. rom = OS a.k.a android
2. cwm = is the name of a custom recovery
3. you've just answered yourself at number 2 with this.
4. the best developers gathered under one roof which is called Cyanogenmod. They make Android OS'es. Search on google, they have a website.
5. Kernel is like the motor of the OS. Without it, the rom will not start.
6. stock means default. if it refers to stock rom it means the OS that came with your phone untouched by you in any way.
7. nandroid backup performs a backup as per the name, of your current rom.
Quick reply.
1. A ROM is the operating system of your phone... Like windows xp is to a computer. you can change this and try different ones.
2 & 3. Is a Recovery from there you can do functions that are necessary to flash ROMs Kernels and even backup your phone
4. A ROM made from the released source code from google... All Vanilla which means that it doesnt have the HTC overlay.
5. A Kernel is the underlying software that communicates with the hardware of the phone in this case
6. Stock means that it has not been modified.
7. A Nandroid is a function that is incorporated into the Recovery it allows you to backup the system in your phone so you have the possibility of recovering it at some other time.
You have a lot of reading to do... The learning curve is steep; start climbing
Thanks man,but from where can I get all of these information about the meanings of these words so I can understand them more deeper

It's because the antenna is at the bottom!

Probably better to point him to the original link...
Dictionary for n00b - What is.../What does ...mean?
As to the antennas, the body is metal so they have to put the antennas behind the plastic parts so that the radio signals can get through. The only solution is to change your grip so that you don't cover the bottom of the phone.

Has there been an ETA given on next update?

Just out of curiosity, has anyone heard anything from HTC on the release of the next update? I just recently got my One-X and the first thing I noticed was three dots stealing my beautiful screen real estate. Fancy my surprise to hear this is being fixed in the next update ;-)
No

We never get ETAs. Just a bunch of people without a clue, guessing.
I really hate that 3dot menu so I really want that update. After a broken mainboard and lucky me got a new one without charge with a custom rom installed. All is like new now and there's no open bootloader so I wanna wait and see what happends...

Should i update my stock x?

Hey guys,
I recently bought my one x and i want to root it eventually and right now i would like to leave it as it is. But i want it also to update via the official updates. Will it be harder or even impossible to root afterwards if i update?

I would update personally as there are many nice fixes/improvements in the new updates.

If you plan on unlocking your bootloader via the HTC Dev route then not really.

It might affect your ability to get S-Off, but we don't know as we don't have S-Off.

You should go root, update, and flash a custom ROM. From my experience, my One X is my first super phone after jumping over from a crappy Nokia phone.
The first day when I got my phone, I got all excited with playing around it. I've been reading lots of stuff here on XDA. It was very tempting to root in on day one, but I managed to let it stay. But immediately, the day after, I risked it all and tried to root it, even if I don't have any experiece or background on handling an Android device.
All the hardwork payed off and just this morning, I updated my phone to ARHD 7.2.0 on stock kernel. Everything feels better right now than what I had on day 1.
But in the end, it is still your choice if you want to hack your phone or not. But trust me, it's worth it.

Totally agree. I've had Android for a while now and my first few I kept stock for that reason, the OTA updates. Kept my Hero and Desire on stock. I then got a DHD and now have a One X and both of these I rooted and flashed custom ROMs and can honestly say was best decision I made. There are spme quality ROMs and developers in this community. As long as you do your research you shouldn't find it too hard, theres very good guides on here. I am also running ARHD 'cause I like the stock look but its so much smoother and quicker. Most devs are also very good at keeping up with the official updates too (If not quicker in many cases.).
Like monchee said its your choice, but personally I don't think I could have a device now without root and custom ROM!
Hope this helps

You need to unlock bootloader to get root too.
I would suggest waiting at least a couple of weeks to see if you have any defects as HTC are refusing to repair unlocked phones in many instances.

Of course. I just tought the officiall htc ota's would do their job better. I had a legend before i bought the one x and i really enjoyed s-off,cwm and root.

QHSUSB_DLOAD Mode Possibilities

Hey Guys. I've just got my One V's Main Board changed for quite a huge amount. (Accompanied with screen, battery etc)
My phone now is with unlocked bootloader, rooted with Custom ROM installed.
I've read about this QHSUSB_DLOAD problem, that the phone suddenly goes off on it's own and then this problem occurs. Or by pressing Vol Up + Power. Are these the only possibilities ? How common is it to have this problem ? Is this very unlikely to happen ? Sorry, I'm just a little scared. I read somewhere that this problem is sorted out on newer boards. Is it true ? And if, I, by chance, face the same problem, then will HTC repair my phone for free ?
noo..no repair work for free..
there is a very low chance that you'll encounter the problem
unless ofc if u mess with your phone
This means that HTC will charge me for it's repairs. Right ?
But it's very unlikely to happen. I read somewhere that this problem has been sorted on new boards. Is this true ?

It's true ? You mean that the newer boards have got this sorted out. I got my Mother Board replaced in Feb 2013, so I need not worry about it, right ?
And I've unlocked the bootlaoder, rooted, PA running. So if I face this problem, you mean that HTC will repair my phone for free ! .. As you said.
And one more thing - ' Long time to fix it ' ? What's the meaning of this ?

Most probably a month. So I've heard...
And yeah, They'll mostly replace for free, just never tell that you every rooted the phone

When did this happen ?

When will I get the 4.2 OTA?

I have heard and seen that Android 4.2 has been released to our One X's and have also read that it has only been released on unlocked phones and not on my 3 phone. Is this true?
Also, I have recently returned to stock 4.1 and a stock recovery, and as I am pretty much a massive noob, half the time I don't know what I'm doing! I managed to get the OTA from the 4.0 Nandroid I restored from to upgrade to the 4.1 I am on now.
I don't know if I have done something wrong and that's why I can't get the update or if it has just not been released for 3 phones yet?
Would be much appreciated if I get an answer
P.S. Sorry this is a bit long, tried to keep it as brief as possible and sorry if this has already been posted, couldn't find anythingon this!
