I have the following problem.
To use the newest Icecold jellybean rom I have to update my hboot. I'm now on version 0.94.
To do that I have to go back to stock-rom.
My CID is O2__001 and with getvar version-main I get 1.28.206.9 (In the past I had an OTA from O2)
And with that OTA my Hboot was updated to 0.94
Now, my problem is I cannot install the RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_O2_UK_1.26.206.2_Radio_1.1204.90.13_release_251230_signed.exe, because the hboot is different.
I don't know what the original hboot was exactly with 1.26, I thought it was something as 0.83.
I see in http://androidfiles.org/ruu/?dir=Endeavor that there is only the above RUU available for my CID and there is an OTA.
But I guess I can only install the OTA when the RUU is installed.
Can anyone help me out to get back to stock? Or another way to update my HBoot?
Thanks in advance!
Use this toolkit to update your HBOOT:

Thank you, but as far as I can see my cid O2__001 is not supported. And where can I get the right hboot?

hello,
i need to upgrade my 0.43.0000 hboot in order to install JB.
my stock is 2.17.401.2 and i have HTC_044.
i tried to reload 2.17.401.2 RUU but it fail to load it (error 155).
Well there's something wrong there because your hboot does not match your "stock". Run:
fastboot getvar version-main
Hi , just follow this guide =)

It's because you're on a custom ROM, your actual version is 1.26

what i have to do\upload in order to upgrade the hboot
You could install this, which would wipe your phone:
http://htcruu.com/Endeavor/RUU_ENDE...Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_278245_signed.exe
But that won't get you a JB hboot.
Or you could go to the thread with JB firmwares in it and download an updated firmware, if your CID is supported, which I think it is. I thought there was a 3.14.707 RUU, but couldn't see it on htcruu.

I have an HTC one x that i bought has been rooted, on aftermarket software. Mainver is 4.78.61.6.. i am trying to return to stock.
I cant install RUU as the RUU available is ICS and can not downgrade as mainver is too high, nor can i obtain a JB RUU as a telecom nz JB ruu does not exist.
I have tried everything and searched fourms for months.
flashing ruu / firmware.zip or rom.zip always comes back with an error, signature error or mainver error. from what i can tell this mainver does not exist anywhere in the world it is FAR too high to even upgrade to any existing JB stock software.
i tried extracting rom.zip from telecom nz ics firmware and matching the mainver to be the same is the only way to return to stock using customRUU or ruu flash tool... BUT when it updates to the 4th or 5th update (system update just bofore the JB update) it freezes on boot, and does lots of weird things suck as booting into recovery / ruu / fastboot.
i have tried flashing telnz001 nandroid backup of ICS (JB not available)
everything is returned to factory spec when i do this, relocked, stock recovery etc
its on an older version of hboot (the one included in stock telnz001)
Cant upgrade hboot.
tried misc tool to change mainver to 1.00.00.0 BUT IT DOESNT WORK.
ALL that will run on it is a aftermarket rom.
IS there any other way to change the mainver?
would a nandroid backup of JB on telnz001 work?
why would it fail or play up on upgrades OTA ( mainver is NEWER than the OTA updates )
really need to return to stock and upgrade to JB
thanks
I don't seem to recognize that main version, can you check and tell me what your bootloader says. The top 3-4 lines .....

The Main version is reading 3.27.000.0 now after installing latest carbon 4.2.2 if this helps any
You need the main version that comes out with fastboot command.
Fastboot getvar version-main
The main number on a custom rom doesn't say anything. When you flash a wwe rom it will change to something like 3.14.401 or 2.17.401 for example.
You need the main version that is embedded in the hboot version.
Do the fastboot command and check if its the same number as stated in the opening post. If its different it might be useful

Yeh I have looked and cannot find anything either any ruu I use gets to around 80% then crashes with wrong boot error , they are the Telecom ones.Frustrating as well .
Mainver is higher than any mainver that exists for htc one.
I found out the androidinfo.txt in a zip file was updated in attempt to roll back software to ICS.
so basically i have two questions,
Is there ANY possible way to downgrade mainver. I have tried misc tool and cannot get it to work.
My other question is does anyone have a nandroid backup of JB for CID TELNZ001
and if i can get the backup all i need to do is upgrade the hboot. which i have also tried and have not been able to achieve.
Could someone please upload a backup image for cwm of JB TELNZ001 with updates included. and hboot file.
Or a firmware.zip with JB system, hboot, boot and recovery for TELNZ001.
thanks =]
im afraid there is nothing you can do...
if your hboot doesn't support JB you're out of luck
except hope that when sense 5 arrives it, comes with a higher main ver

You have hboot 1.12 that's a ics hboot, not a JB hboot.

i like how thats from a different username.. i didnt write that lol
my username is misterr.mann
I wrote that i had a ics hboot im not denying that, the part you missed was i have the 1.39 hboot for jb, which i can flash and am flashing right this second, although its not going to help me as it fails on OTA update, so what im saying is once im on hboot 1.39 ill still have that EXACT same issue, as my main ver is higher than any one that exists it wont ota update. so once hboot 1.39 is on all i will need is nandroid backup of JB telnz001, literally all i asked for was this nandroid backup rom.zip or firmware.zip
My mistake :thumbdown:
Okay so my HTC one is reverted completly back to stock (used custom ruu with system.img boot.img androiinfo.text etc)
I had to edit android txt file to MATCH my existing mainver.
After 2.17 update phone boots, gets to o lock ring, and reboots. does this constantly... non stop. my main ver is still higher then cicomming update mainver is still 3.78
i have a file for OTA update zip
file name:
OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_Telecom_NZ_WWE_3.17.781.2-2.17.781.3_release_304681lsq8o9k2p8n4minf.zip
now there is no RUU for JB
My question is how can i install this update, i still have hboot for ics 1.12.0000
contents in OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_Telecom_NZ_WWE_3.17.781.2-2.17.781.3_release_304681lsq8o9k2p8n4minf
contains firmware.zip with hboot 1.39
so i can extract hboot file
i can fully extract the entire firmware.zip contained in the OTA update.
But am having issues flashing through fastboot, and in RUU mode it comes back 99 unknown error
Im stuck between a rock and a hard place as both options for update fail
i tried creating a firmware.zip containing android txt file with my current mainver hboot 1.39 boot.img and recovery.img
yet this update fails.
any help would be appreicated thanks
Hello,
In firmware topic I found hboot 1.36 for cidnum: VODAP001, but I want to flash 1.39.
If I get hboot 1.39 for other cidnum and change android-info.txt to mach my device is it going to work or it will brick it?
Wont work ! And why do you want 1.39 ? All is working fine on 1.36

After flashing Sense 5 all sensors stop working, except proxymity.
RUU do not help, calibrating in safe mode also, lived the phone to completely disscharge also.
Flashing any custom rom do not help.
You can only reflash the 1.36 hboot/ruu....if it's not working on stock there is nothing you can do. Software won't fix it then...

I am using firmware from this link also, but I get error for bootloader and can't finish the install.
It is Relocked.
You can only flash a firmware that is ment for your phone not a different one. If the firmware fails the first time reflash it directly again.
Did you reboot to RUU mode before flashing the firmware.zip ?
And after that you have to reinstall a rom
I can not find a the firmware for my:
HTC ONE X
RADIO - 2.1204.135.20
CID - VODAP021
HBOOT 1.12
I want to upgrade it to HBOOT 1.28 so I can install custom roms and turn S-OFF but I have looked everywhere and I can no find this firmware
Could anyone help me? I just need to find this firmware then I have everything else undercontrol.
I can't turn S-OFF because my kernel is securer but I can not find a custom rom which works on it which isn't insecure.
Please help me, I have been looking for hours on end and I can not find it :\
You can't s-off. Return the phone back to stock and update via official ota.

Hi
I have an International One x running hboot 1.31, version-main: 3.14.401.619. CID is HTC__J15, S_ON I used the tool JBFWTOOL21 a couple of years ago to get to that point.
I now want to update hboot to 1.39 (or later) so i can flash more recent ROMs, but cant seem to do so. All RUU's i have tried fail because the ver is 3.14.401.619. Also JBFWTOOL21 only will flash 1.31 due to my CID.
Please any methods our there
Thanks
Problem solved, thanks. Hboot now updated and HTC One X running lollipop 5.0
Thanks

Thank you, where can I download the HBOOT? My phone's CID is HTC__621, hboot 1.33
I don't think there is a 1.39 HBOOT for for your CID. My information is 1.33 is the the latest for HTC__621
