Hboot update - HTC One X

Heh! Can I update Hboot before I unlock my bootloader or istall custom recovery or custom ROM?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

If you never unlocked the bootloader in the first place i would check for official updates. Or did you update to JB already ?

Yes I have official JB 4.1.1. But i'd like to install ARHD and I thought you need Hboot update for that.

I have Hboot version 1.39. Does it mean I Don't have to update Hboot?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

Yes that does mean you do not have to update your hboot. Unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery and make a NANDROID BACKUP ! Store the backup somewhere safe !!! Then you can flash any rom out there !

Thanks!

With relocked bootloader he will not be able to flash boot.img and recovery. First flash stock boot and recovery. Then relock bootloader and then you can apply ota update.

OTA only works in a clean stock ROM. The reason why it stop halfway is because it can't find the file it need to patch.
Only if you have a nandroid backup for your stock rom which should be a clean stock ROM and restore that, then OTA will work.

[Q] Ota update?

This morning I received a notification that an update to 2.22.401.6 is available. Currently I have stock rom (2.22.401.1) with root and unlocked bootloader.
Is it safe to download and install the update?

Are you sure? Or only on stock rom I should not install official updates? And will it affect root and bootloader? And one more question, do you know what's in this update?

No, you should relock the bl, unroot and also flash a stock recovery ideally.

Yes.
Over on a Spanish forums, it says the update just claims to enhance the system. No Android update
" Today it is with surprise that my HTC V ONE is brought to light in the version 2.22.401.6. The description of this version was only brief indicating frequency enhance the system. "
I installed it and can't notice anything different.
So this update is recent?

i thought you had a nand backup, however that RUU isn't available yet so your only solution is to restore a nand backup as stated above

this one will be good... follow the guide i linked before if you don't know how to restore it
No i have a nand backup!! I will restore that

that's ok then
First install the stock rom completely, then the stock recovery.
I can flash the stock recovery by using the same procedure to flash the boot image of the backup???
