OTA up date and root question - HTC One X

Hi Guy I've been trying to find the answer but there so much info on here I'm having trouble finding answer to my question.
My phone has been Rooted and its currently on 4.0.4 and sense 4.1
I've had this update download OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.27-2.17.401.2_release_298985n1wwcwzs385c0bvz
But unable to install it due to the cid I beleave. Is there any way around this? Id like to be able to do the update with out wiping my phone ie backing it up and restoring it
Is it at all possible? would someone be kind enough to explane it to me?
Cheers

fastboot getvar version-main

I need fastboot installed to do this right?
What does this do for me?

cid HTC__001
C:\Android>fastboot getvar version-main
version-main: 2.17.401.2
Does this help?

Cheer for all your help wish you all hadn't spoken at once

Whoops, sorry, forgot about this thread totally.
Are you on stock ROM? Can you see the update if you press check for updates in settings?

It fails go install because you haven't got the stock recovery installed. You gotta flash it to update.
Gonna give you the link in a minute.
Here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/wbav46spkbznovp/stock recovery 2.17.img
Just flash by "fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img"
Then update and it should install no problem.

Thanks guy I'll have a go when I have a spare moment and let you know how it went.
By doing either of these methods will I wipe my phone/factory reset?
Thanks again for the help

Only flash back the stock recovery and update the phone ....do NOT wipe anything ! After you updated to stock JB you can flash back the custom recovery and make a nandroid (to be sure u have one) nd reroot the rom or flash a totally new custom rom

No, your data should be safe if everything goes well. But do a backup anyway, before you flash stock recovery. And remember, if you'll go by the tutorial, use stock recovery provided by one of us two, not from tutorial (I'm not entirely sure, but I think it's only for older HBOOTs).

Just wanted to let you all know its done and went so smooth and quick to do. I think it took all of 1.45 sec. lol
I'm now updated to the latest software and I didn't lose any settings, I used the Voodoo OTA app and kept my root too
So thank you for those who helped

No problem mate.

Update via OTA to JB (with HOX unlocked bootloader, rooted & stock ROM)

Today I receive this message:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

So, before do bad thing, I want to know if I can update my HOX via OTA, without re-unlock bootloader or anything else.
Right now,I'm using the stock rom, I only unlock bootloader, flash custom recovery in order to root it.
Thanks
You need to re flash stock recovery

I already do it and nothing. Does anyone know if I update the firmware to 1.36 (my CID is HTC__044) and flash stock boot.img will work? Anyone can provide me just the boot.img file?
And if I flash the stock RUU 2.17.707.3 (which is the one I got) I don't have to update the firmware manually?
All I want is to update to stock JB via OTA.
Thanks.
What is the question?
The fact you got the update means you are good to go. Probably if you boot in bootloader it says re-locked?
The update will update your hboot to 1.36 and firmware to stock 3.14
Where you will lose cwm and root.
If you want root then you need to re-unlock it by cmd and with unlock file you got from the first time.

The question is why I can't update?. As I say already flash stock recovery, and I have the bootloader unlocked.
But what happens when you try to update?

After download the update, the phone reboot and an exclamation red icon appears, then reboot again and you can see that nothing is updated.
Did you got the smaller update too or not? When i flashed stock recovery from RUU i got the small battery update first.
Do you have stock recovery from when you unlocked the phone?

Yes, also I flashed again but nothing. I think that the problem might be that I uninstall some bloatware apps. Anyone know which bloatware apps are updated with the OTA update?
Ah that's the problem, your rom has to be as it came out of the box ! Otherwise it won't work
I should back this rom up and copy it to pc, then run the matching ruu to get back to stock or get the matching nandroid backup in the general section - nandroid backup collection from matt95 !
It's he easiest way in my opinion

Going back to stock ROM

After trying some ROMs I can't help but feel disappointed for several reasons, and I'd like to go back to Stock rom
Problem is I never had one, I only had ICS with a rom from the company I bought it from
I'd like to go back to clean Jelly bean Stock rom
Is that available for download somewhere?
And how do you install it? is it a firmware flashed with Odin or is it a boot.img?
I'm kinda new at these stuff, so newb tips would help
Thanks in advance
Do you know fastboot commands ?
Put the phone in fastboot USB (bootloader menu)
And do these fastboot commands
Fastboot getvar version-main
and
Fastboot OEM readcid
Post the outcome here !
Didn't understand anything from the 2nd command, so:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Try it without the capital letters
Like oem readcid
Or
Code:
fastboot getvar cid
Well I could've just told you my CID if you asked ._."
HTC_K18 [I'm from Israel, that CID is the importer's so it's weird :\ I guess I need some kind of international version?]
Might be difficult to find a ruu for that cid. I guess you'll get more out of the following thread than I do:
http://iandroid.co.il/forum/topic98747.html
I remember you. I helped you install cm10 in the first place. I hope you did a backup of the stock rom like I told you to. Did you?

Actually no >< I skipped it since it didn't work out at the beginning and I already started the process ... Sorry
But I never actually had a stock rom in the first place ...
I realize that it was a mistake, but does that mean I only have to find a RUU for this CID?

Well, I wasn't 100% sure and I'd expect you to just ask me to download a cid getter for that xD
Well to be honest i have never seen a cid like yours ! Don't know where to look for a ruu
Can't find that ruu either ... :3
I've got a few ideas, lemme know if they can work:
1. Unlocking hboot resets device settings, right? I remember getting a stock rom after I've done that... what if I relock it and then unlock again?
2.If I find another guy with the same CID as mine with a HOX, can I somehow copy the files required from him? or maybe if he backups his device, then send it to me and I restore it on mine?
1) it'll "factory reset", but it won't flash the stock ROM bits!
2) somebody else's backup is the standard choice when RUU doesn't exist. There is a thread dedicated to this.

It doesn't have my CID .... But I can surely get one
1 last question about this.... if someone has never unlocked his phone or done anything to it, can he go to Bootloader Recovery and back it up? :3 If not, maybe the ROM manager app can do it?
Bump... please :3
Nope. If you have not unlocked your phobe then it is running stock recovery, and stock htc recocery doesnt support nandroid backups. Also you wont be able to use rom manager as rom manager itself works on a base of CWM recovery.

No unlocking the bootloader does not install CWM recovery, you have to do that yourself or with a tool !
Unlocking the bootloader only provides the privilege to flash modified parts to the phone

[Q] Really need fast help with RUU and bootloader!

Hi guys, i'm an idiot :crying:
I'had an One X Tegra with CID HTC_405 (Italy no brand) and ROM Venom
I wanted to return stock, so i connected the One in Fastboot and typed "fastboot oem lock"
And then i started a RUU but it was the wrong probably, it stopped saying that i have to download the right one
Was this one: RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.31_R_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_302015_signed.exe
Now i can't start the phone cause to the relocked bootloader
I can't flash a CWM for the same, so i can't flash a Nandroid
And i can't re-unlock the bootloader because i don't have the .bin file
Can you give me a RUU for my CID or give me a recovery?
Thanks and sorry for my bad English!

Don't forget to do NAND Backup if you start root or try install custom rom. The backup is for any case if something goes wrong . But for me for now stay on STOCK. Because no more RUU after 3.14.401.31 only nandroid backup.

All roms work with philz 6 but if you want latest AOSP based rom like CM11 or other you need the latest Philz to not geting any error. And the latest work with the Sense based roms to. You know the rules here I can't recomend ROM try them all and take decision lastest AOSP is JB4.4.4 other sense is 4.2.2 it is your decision and don't forget to make nandroid backup before install new rom
Thanks for all your help Thant, managed to get Beanstalk up and running with a backup

Not at the moment but the CMD/Terminal show'd up as sending 'OkAY' and flashing 'OkAY' and it had nothing else but the time it took.
What ROMs have you flashed? So you're saying no ROM you flash boots after you flash the ROM and the boot image from the ROM? I feel like I'm missing something.

Yeah RUU is my last resort and I'm not getting S-OFF because I don't have money for it. Another question..can I use the HK RUU with no problem or do I have to use the non HK since I don't have the HK model

You can't run the HK RUU on a non-HK device unless you're SuperCID, which you can't achieve without S-OFF. I think RUU is your best bet to resolve your issue at this point.
