RE-Lock your bootloader.
Easiest.
Just enter fastboot on your phone then use command prompt and write:
cd..
cd..
cd \fastboot
Then connect phone to cable then type:
'fastboot oem lock'
Edit: Phone must be in fastboot mode before connecting.
And then you will be able to update easily.

ya followed this guide when rooting and installing clockwork recovery...not installed any custom rom yet..just rooted in phone after unlock.
now not able to do ota which has just arrived in india

Help anyone. have relocked thephone now what. tried to do a factory reset from bootloader menu nothing happens .how do I get the phone back in condition newly bght. even clockwork recovery seems to have gone..this is so disappointing

You didn't need to lock the boot loader. Unlock it using the method you used when you unlocked your phone.
All you need to install the ota depends on what state your device is in before you start.
Are you on the stock from or a custom from?
If stock with unlocked boot loader and clockwork mod recovery then all you needed to do was flash the stock recovery reboot and do the ota.
If you were in a custom rom you will have needed to get back to stock from the nandroid backup you took, flashed stock recovery, and stock boot.img. Then reboot to stock and do OTA.

How do I Update Rooted HTC ONE X ?

Hi guys,
I have a rooted one X and want to install he latest update. I tried to relock my bootloader by starting fastboot and then type:
" fastboot oem relock"
Now my phone should be relocked and it does show relocked in pink in the bootloader, but under that stands security warning I don't kno if thats normal or important or something. I rebooted my phone and downloaded the update but when i try to install it i still get into the bootloader.
What am I doing wrong and how do I unlock my bootloader again after the update?
Sascha

You unlock by flashing the unlock_code.bin file again like you first did.
To apply an ota update you also need to reflash the stock recovery

Okay I unlocked my bootloader flashed my recovery.img and relocked my bootloader again. But still it reboots into the bootloader. Could it be my backup of the recovery.img is already wrong?? and if so where can i get the right one

My phone:
1.29.401.11
HTC__102
I Relocked the bootloader and got back to stock recovery.. But while updating i have an error.. Phone with red square on him..
Idk what i'm doing wrong. i have status relocked.. Maybe something wrong with stock recovery?

I tried the recovery image attached to this post first time it deleted al my data second time the update succeeded

It returns me to bootloader))

You can try to following download stock recovery and download the RUU of your phone ( the same version as your latest official update ) then go to fastboot
Type
Fastboot flash recovery "your stock recovery " .img
Hit enter
Fastboot flash OEM lock
This might give an error but when you type it again it wil work
Now put your phone in fastboot again and then start your RUU from your pc if it gives an error just search for another One it will take about 10 min but after your phone will work fine
Hope it helps

I'm using a Stock from a recovery Nandroid, not mine but the same CID 044... I guess I shold go back to RUU...but I've tried without any success

I can't even use my RUU file...donno why... I have this file: (RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.29.707.11_Radio_1.1204.105.14_release_260743_signed) and It works, not now but It used it once...do you have a suggestion so I can use it again??

I'm not...I'm on 2.17 yet...JB update does not install...that's the main problem
and I have noticed that NO MATTER I CHANGE...IT WONT CHANGE THIS VERSION... OMG
tks man!

You need to relock your bootloader (if you haven't already) and run THIS RUU.
The problem is that the version of software you're running (2.17) is newer than the RUU you're trying to install (1.29). you can't revert to an older RUU. you can only flash the same version or newer.
Once you've flashed the RUU, you'll be able to download and install the JB OTA.

Thank you very much man, You renew my faith!!
It will work like a FORMAT SYSTEM with the same Rom?

Also, this may sound silly but did you reflash stock RECOVERY?

You don't need stock recovery to flash an RUU. You just need a locked or relocked bootloader, and a less or equal main-version.
Once you run an RUU, you will have stock everything(including recovery) and will be able to install whatever OTAs are available.

Well I am currently running Team Venom's Viper but I have HBOOT 1.31. My device's CID is HTC_J15.
I have checked the list of RUUs but unfortunately all of them are older than the version I need, which has to be 3+.
Does anybody know if there's an RUU available for my device? It is an ubranded WWE version, 401 if I remember correctly.

In my experience the 2.17.707.xx RUU Asia WWE does not work properly. It does its thing installing everything, relocks the bootloader but somehow it does not reflash the recovery. After 4 hours trying everything under the sun, I gave up and looked for a nandroid of 2.17 for CID_044 and restored from that, reflashed stock recovery and went to town with the OTA.

That's very strange, no such problem when I did the same thing. You'd think it would throw an error or something if a component of the image failed to flash.
Glad you managed to figure it out!
Did you run it when your bootloader was unlocked? Maybe that's the problem? I ran it with the bootloader relocked and didn't ahve any problems. I was under the impression you couldn't run an RUU with an unlocked bootloader, but haven't tried it myself.

Refer custom to stock thread posted earlier. Go through step by step procedure. It will help u to be on stock Rom. After that flash any Rom suitable to your CID only

Got It guys!!
What I did... NOTHING else...
Only Reboot the phone...wait to initialize completely, then reboot again, when came a little update about 1.25mb...installed and reboot...after that...JB update installed correctly.
If someone else needs...Someone like me who relocked the phone waiting for JB and Has problems
1. Unlock Phone
2. fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (from nandroid 2.17)
3. fastboot flash boot boot.img (from nandroid 2.17)
4. fastboot erase cache
5. restart bootloader (I like to do this way)
6. Install RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.17.707.3_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_278245_signed on windows
7. Wait to boot completely, then restart phone.
8. Update Software ...a little update came before JB. (about 1.25mb)
9 Reboot phone.
10. Update Software... finally to JB.
Thanks guys!

The RUU ran with no problem, and it relocked my bootloader, but it still did not receive any OTAs. So I had no choice but to do a nandroid restore instead (recommended anyway )

[Q] HOX could not go into recover mode in HBoot

Hi to all,
Good day to all who is reading and helping.
I am not very sure if this question have been asked before but looking at the first few pages of tread, I did not come across this question, else i am pretty much blind. heehee.
I am having this problem with my rooted HTC One X (asia version). Previously I could go into the recovery mode in Hboot to perform backup and recovery but recently when I select recovery at Hboot, the phone with show a logo of a phone surrounded by green circular arrows and followed by a logo of a phone with a huge exclamation mark. It will remain so until I press and hold the power button to restart the phone.
The phone is working fine otherwise.
Is there any way for me to get the recovery to work again? I am using clockwork mod btw.
Could any bro or sis help me with the above issue?
Thank you all in advance.
Cheers

It seems to me that you have the stock recovery installed. You can flash the cwm custom recovery again.....
Or did u get a notification from an update to JB in your running OS. Boot it up and check if you have an update waiting.

What do you mean by stock recovery installed?
Yes, I have a JB update waiting to be installed.
Previously I have to go through some steps to prevent my rooting from being wipe out before performing an OTA update and one of them is to head into the recovery of Hboot before running some app to prevent the removal of root.
Just a quick info, I did not install custom rom on my phone, just a stock rooted phone.
Thank you.

If everything is 100% stock except the recovery , you have to flash the stock recovery back. It tries to update to JB but it runs in an error because of the (what i assume now) custom cwm recovery

No, I have not perform the JB update yet.
I am just trying to access the recovery at HBoot but got that error.
Is there a way to check if it is stock recovery or custom cwm recovery?
Thank you.

Don't know really, well if you flash the stock recovery over the existing one you will have for certain the stock
And if you downloaded the update it will continue to try to update everytime you enter the recovery, you said you are using clockworkmod recovery (5.8.4.0 ?)

Hi MarcelHofs,
I dont think so, it should either be 5.8.2.7 or 5.8.3.1.
I just hope to upgrade to JB without losing my root.

If you go into HBOOT and select recovery and you are getting those green arrows, you have the right recovery for installing the JB stock OTA so you don't need CWM yet, Does it say relocked or locked at the top of the HBOOT screen mate?
If it's unlocked, run the command, "fastboot oem lock" as you need to have the HBOOT locked with stock recovery installed for the OTA to install
Also the OTA won't delete any apps or settings
---------- Post added at 03:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:40 PM ----------
Actually, that exclamation mark you are mentioning is ringing alarm bells, you may need to reflash the stock recovery via fastboot, can you post a pic of the recovery screen you get? I will be home in an hour and can upload the file you need

Yes it is unlock.
At HBOOT, the green arrows is follow by a red exclamation mark if I select recovery, so I can still install JB OTA?
To run the command, my phone have to be in fastboot mode?

Hi MarcelHofs,
Thanks for taking time to look into my problem.
Hey, you have a great day at work thought overtime doesn't sound too nice a thing.
Cheers and thanks again.

Hi home now
what you need to do is put the attachment into your fastboot folder (where your unlocktoken.bin was when you unlocked your bootloader.)
Since your bootloader is unlocked, boot your phone into fastboot and then connect it to your pc
open a command prompt and link it to your fastboot folder (cd c:\fastboot - or whatever your path to this folder is)
then type the command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed_1.28.img
then type the command
fastboot oem lock
your Hboot/bootloader should then say relocked at the top and you will have the stock recovery installed.
reboot the phone, download the update and before long you should be basking in the fabled JB goodness
let me know if any problems

Back home !
Are we sure he needs the 1.28 stock recovery and not for example the 2.17 stock recovery.....these are different ?!
Please do this command in fastboot USB mode
Fastboot getvar version-main and post the result ....if it starts with 2.17 you need this recovery

ok, i think you've tried to flash a stock rom without flashing a stock recovery !!.
do you have fasboot adb on your pc ?
you need to unlock your bootloader and re flash a custom recovery
if not search the dev section for a tool that will unlock your boot and re-flash a custom recovery for you-all the instructions are on there.
once you have re unlocked and flashed a custom recovery,go into recovery and see if there are any backups of the previous rom (nand)
see if that works ..

help?:crying:

According to the hboot (1.12) you need a 2.17 based ruu .... but i can't find it !
Tthe basic steps now are
Unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery

Get your nandroid backup there,(the vodap021 2.17) you need to flash the boot.img file from that nandroid with fastboot commands, then do a full wipe in recovery and restore the nandroid.
But you still have to fix the fastboot part right ? You need to install android SDK/java SDK and the HTC drivers. Then you have to put the phone in the bootloader and open a commandprompt from inside the folder where the adb/fastboot files are located ...they are in a subfolder in the installed javaSDK install folder

Thanks, it is beginning to make some sense to me now.
So first bit I got to do is the fastboot issue, which is tha last bit you mentioned right?
And after unlock boot loader than flash the recovery with one you provided in the link, tx
So that means I will go back to stock right?

Yes unlock, flash custom recovery, flash boot.img, full wipe in recovery, restore the nandroid, flash back the stock recovery .....
And yes this way you go back to stock and i will also give you the download link for the stock recovery. This one is the last you flash after restoring everything

Then you are able to update to JB from within the phones software update menu :thumbup:
Ps you do not have to relock the bootloader anymore !

Please guys, iWe spent all day trying to figure it out, after wipe phone reboots constantly and when if boot screen it's not charging so I'm prob going to run out of battery in a couple of hours

You restore through the custom recovery. Power+vol , choose recovery. If you flashed the recovery ok then you can do from in there. Ie mount usb, copy over your nand backup and restore it. You may have to flash the boot.img using fastboot.
