Upgrade Hboot From 0.96 - HTC One X

Hi,
I want to upgrade my Hboot. My current Version is 0.96
I found this very good tutorial: https://www.dropbox.com/s/1avesz4l8fcnkku/Tutorial_hboot_upgrade.pdf
My Problem is Step 1. I don't have the Unlock_bin anymore and I have lost my login to htcdev.com too.
Is there another way to upgrade the hboot?
Can I just install a .zip file from there?: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376
Thank you.

Can't you do it through ota or ruu? Are you branded? What's your cid? That's an old h-boot so at a guess it's possible.

Even with the .zip method you'll need to relock/unlock the bootloader. It's NOT flashable in
recovery. Create a new account at htcdev.
Here's how to use the zip:
1. fastboot oem lock
2. fastboot oem rebootRUU
3. fastboot flash zip firmware.zip (do several times if it fails)
4. fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin.

@cjm1979
My One X is from T-Mobile (Germany). Currently I´m running Android 4.2.1 . When i will get mit CID it always says "cid:null".
@TToivanen Ok thank you.

Get your CID and MAIN version with these 2 fastboot commands
Fastboot getvar version-main
Fastboot oem readcid
:thumbup:

Thank you
version-main: 1.29.111.11
(bootloader) DEBUG: cid: T-MOB101

Hmmm i can't see your needed ruu in the listing of ruu's. Also there is no nandroid backup available for you only a higher version. Don't know if that will work. Otherwise you have to flash the firmware if that is available !
You can check here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376
It is available for you......read the instructions in the OP, lock the bootloader, flash the firmware with the given commands and unlock the bootloader, then a custom recovery and flash the desires JB rom

Just a reminder, if you haven't deleted the email from htcdev which had the unlock.bin file in it.. You can search for that in your inbox... I found my unlock.bin that way....

Yeah ! Or just make a new account

@mathrania I have deleted the whole Mail Account
@Mr Hofs Thank you very much.
Now i want go back to stock . No root with actual HTC Android 4.1.1 Firmware. I think i can do this in the same way without unlock / root again? Right?

I have your ruu in my possession if you want it. The only thing you need to do is to relock the bootloader, run the ruu and after that update manually all the way to JB !!!
Either way....you always have to lock the bootloader in this case ! But unlocking is no problem mate

[Q] RUU search?

Hi I want to install my RUU but I can't find it.
fastboot getvar version-main

Can somebody help my finding my RUU?
Here you are:

Also there is the last update for your CID with number 3:14:401:31.
Regards.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Yep thats the right one .... The .24 ruu has the 1.36 hboot, and the .31 ruu will update your hboot to 1.39 !
Thank you kind sirs Can somebody tell me do I need to be in a fastboot to run it or what? How do I install it?
Yes you put the phone in bootloader/fastboot usb mode and lock the bootloader
Fastboot oem lock
After that it reboots the bootloader and you see a warning sign there, now keep it in fastboot usb mode and execute the ruu WITH admin rights (right click the file and run as administrator)
Should do the trick
Thank you This returns eveything to factory stock I think?
Yes.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Yes everything. Stock rom, stock boot.img and stock recovery ! You will have an out if the box hox
Note : watch out it might wipe the sdcard also (not 100% sure but there are reports that it did so back it up just in case)
I have erased everything from SD yesterday I thought my HOX has shutdowns couse of that. I tryed everything and now I'm doing this. Hope it helps, he just shutsdown for no reason. I think it's the battery problem but it's better to try software first

[Q] HBOOT CID problem

Hi guys,
let me fill you in on my situation.
I live in The Netherlands, last year i got my one x.
My service provider is vodafone, current HBOOT version is 1.12 and my CID is VODAP102
At the moment i''m running slim bean 3.1.0 official (android 4.1.2)
I would like to upgrade to a JB ROM but i cant because my HBOOT version is to low.
I followed the instructions from the link below (short version: lock phone, fastboot oem RUU, etc..)
But after locking the phone it wont boot into RUU and it wont flash the new HBOOT version.
I checked and i downloaded the correct HBOOT for my CID.
I followed the steps in the video to the letter but always fails when trying to reboot into RUU and after that to flash the new HBOOT.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkD3CeSecb8
My best guess would be that the CID that my phone returns to me is not the CID my phone realy has.
Because when i look up the CID it is assosiated with either vodafone UK or vodafone germany not vodafone NL.
Can u help me ?
If you have a backup of stock ICS rom, restore this and lock your phone.
Take the upgrade by OTA and re-unlock your phone with the first code by htc.
p.s. SlimBean works on 1.2x hboot?

Correct, its fastboot oem lock
The file is a ruu, it should flash back the stock rom,kernel and recovery back to the phone via a setup menu on the pc. It reads the phone and flashes all for you

Something fishy going on ! The 415 ruu didn't work i assume. You could try the 2.17.401 ruu !
You tried the 3.14 ruu and that failed because of the low hboot you have now. It can't jump from that low to that high one.

Back again
Unfortunately the 2.17.401 ruu did not work as well.
Here is what I'm going to do and would like your guidance..
1- flash firmware package for JB htc__102 from here
2- unlock bootoader from htc dev
3- flash custom recovery
4- flash stock jelly bean rom (odexed) and boot.img provided by mike1986.from here
5- flash stock recovery back again and relock bootloader to be able to receive ota updates
Will this work?
You can try. If the firmware is wrong it won't be flashed anyway. But yeah it is an option to try. But i think it will fail because the 2.17 ruu should have updated the hboot too. A ruu or ota file contains the firmware package that you will try to flash seperatly with command.
Give it a shot. But the info your phone is giving by the cid and main commands are not in line with what they should be !

[Q] my phone is ***LOCKED***

my bootloader is locked and i found a way to charge him.
when i try to flash something it says "not allowed" so i cant flash recovery.
i tried to use RUU butit didnt help (RUU with the same radio number as i have).
how to relock it or unlock it?
i try it for few hours but all i find is when the phone is already unlocked or relocked/
You need to flash the unlock code.bin file to unlock the bootloader.
Fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin
Of you haven't got the file you need to make a new one via the htcdev site.
You cant flash anything with a locked bootloader

put the phone in the bootloader and relock it :

Keep the phone in the relocked bootloader and execute the RUU.exe by clicking it with the right mouse button and select :
run as administrator
after that you keep the phone in the bootloader and flash this firmware :
http://arhd.onedroid.net/db_mirror/Firmware/HTC/HTC_One_X/401/3.14.401.31.zip
You copy the zip file to the fastboot folder on the pc and rename the file to firmware.zip
Then flash it via the commandprompt with these commands :
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip (maybe its needed twice, check the outcome in the commandprompt)
Then re-unlock the bootloader and flash a new custom recovery and install a fresh new rom !
