[Q] Help, Need RUU - HTC One X

I'm a newbie but i just bought an htc one x international version and i guess from my constant flashing im totally stuck on the htc bootscreen and im sure i've tried everything there is to try but nothing although the roms all flash as well as the boot image, i've given up and am going to return my phone back to factory state and i've read i need an RUU but i don't want to flash the wrong one and i don't know which is the right one for my phone:
CID: HTC_622 not sure what that means but if someone can point me in the right direction or tell me how to even tell the proper one from the cid#. i'd really appreciate it.
please and thank you
paul

We need the main version to determine what ruu you exactly need....
Fastboot getvar version-main
Please post the result

You may also refer to this thread to determine which RUU you need.

622 should be .708

It's a list of RUUs, and he can just search his CID (with Ctrl + F) to get the download. Thought that would get him his RUU faster rather than having to wait for somebody to find out for him. Apologies for any harm done.

No mate its NOT a list of ruu's....its a list of nandroid backups. Installing them is completely different from a ruu ! No harm is done mate, don't worry. But its kinda wrong info.
A ruu, Rom Update Utility is an .exe file which you eexecute from the pc to the phone in bootloader mode with a locked bootloader which will flash back everything to stock for you. A nandroid backup has to be installed like a rom. Flashing the boot.img, wiping the phone and restoring the nandroid with a custom recovery

If I'm not wrong, the version should be 3.14.708.28 for CID__622.

Yes that is possible, but we need his main version to determine his hboot version. If he is on a older hboot than 1.12 then a 3.14 ruu will not work. If its released in the first place. Because of the big difference in updating the hboot from such a low one to a very high one. It all stands and falls depending the version number.
And when he is still on a 1.12 hboot we can't use a 3.14 nandroid backup

That's not possible .... A number like 3.14.708.** should come out of that and not the CID
Phone in the bootloader and the command
Fastboot getvar version-main
From the command prompt on the pc in the fastboot folder

and once i find the proper RUU is there a good simple tutorial in here somewhere? this is my second phone in as many weeks i recently bricked my fav phone my galaxy s2 and dont want that to happen to this one cause new unlocked phones aren't cheap.
please and thanks for any help

Download the matching nandroid backup and restore it, including flashing the boot.img from the nandroid backup. Then you are back to stock JB .....

ukrsetse morris
awesome that's great thanks alot, im going to give it a try now. little scared to mess it up but here it goes i'll post results.

Make sure you charge the battery before you start and dont forget to do a full wipe in the recovery before you restore the actual nandroid

i've read the thread and doesn't cover my concern. theres 2 files for me, nan backup and jb hboot and both have boot.img do i do them both one at a time flashing each boot image? sorry for all the questions this is last one
looks like im just restoring from a backup (nandroid) i'm going to try but i have tried to restore from 3 backups on my phone through cwm already and im still stuck at the htc boot screen hope this works.

Hmm i think you are stuck to a custom rom for a while until there is a matching nandroid or ruu available, i don't see them......but you say the phone is bootlooping ?
What has been changed ?
You can get into the bootloader ? If yes , you can flash the boot.img file from the rom again and you can flash the rom itself again .....

Thnx ...I was able to flash the custom rom again...and it booted properly...but still how can i go back to stock?
Well basically you need to find a ruu that matches the main version number, you need one exactly like that one starting with 1.28 or 1.29 or 3.14 then you can return to stock.....
Or you need a nandroid backup matching the cid and main version
I checked htcruu.com but there is no ruu for you, only one with a lower version number (but you can't use that one because downgrading is not possible)
Maybe there is one available on the file factory but i don't have an account there

You have to read the instructions how to, i have never done this method so i know as much as you do about it
But yes you have to do some reboot locking and flashing procedures, that's all i know about it
But backup the sdcard before you start doing the updating because locking and Re-unlocking wipes everything !!!

[Q] Using another one's Nandroid which has a lower Versionnr to restore Stock

Good Day,
I am currently trying to go back on Stock and stumpled over this thread.
Unfortunatly I did no backup when I rooted and installed another Rom, but the Author states that I may use another one's Backup.
My CID is O2___102 and some kind User named treebill uploaded his O2___102 backup. So far so clear.
But
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main
tells me my HOX is currently using 2.17.207.2 while the backup of treebill is 2.17.206.2.
In fear of bricking my device, I am not sure if I can use this backup with a lower Versionnumber. I did a quick search but couldn't find an answer. My HBOOT is 1.12.000 if that is somehow an information of interest.
And on another Point: If I may use this backup and successfully restore stock, will my bootloader be locked again?
Great Thanks in Advance to the noble Responders
Are you sure you got yourself the right versions ?
Also do
Fastboot oem readcid
Sure you wrote down the right version number here ?
Mr Hofs said:
Fastboot oem readcid
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This command delivers me <bootloader> DEBUG: cid: 02___102 which concurs with the cid of treebill.
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main
tells me version-main: 2.17.207.2
And this h ttp://i.imagebanana.com/img/ww1dkc2n/cid.PNG is the backup I want to use (remove space in h ttp). It seems to be of an earlier version, so I don't know if I may use it.
That's kinda strange, I have seen the 207 software but it had CID 02__001
Ow and you can try the backup that is no problem, you will not brick your device ! The only thing is that the phone might not update !
And in this process you do not need to relock the bootloader !
You have 3 options.
1: try the 206 nandroid backup, flash back the stock 2.17 recovery and try to update. If it doesn't update ....no problem , go back to the latest backup
2: try to scoop up a 207 nandroid backup or RUU. But i didn't see no ruu with a 2.17.207 number
3: do a standalone firmware flash to lift your hboot to a JB one and flash a new JB rom of your choice
First of all: Thank you for your answer. I was busy studying so forgive me for posting this late.

If I understood right, I need the correct Ruu in both cases. I found this OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_O2_DE_3.14.207.27-2.17.207.2_release_2996435hle0dx8i1s01kza.zip File size: 350.92 Mb through google on roomyshare. The 02 DE looks to be the 02___102 cid, even through it is not really stated there.
I am a little unsure if this is the right thing. The 3.14.207.27 irritates me.
Its a ota file. Its of no use because its the official ota but it can't be flashed like a full ruu

[Q] Restoring HTC__001 3.20.1 Back to complete stock from ViperX

Hi, I'm trying to restore my phone back to stock firmware with the ability to update through the usual HTC update route (directly on the phone). I have attempted RUU RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.1_Radio_1.1204.71.08_release_249238_signed and RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.27_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_298897_signed but neither work. Both error with error 140.
It's running hboot 1.39
How can I get it back to stock?

No not for a update. Leave it unlocked. But don't forget the stock recovery before updating
I've put on the stock recovery and boot (as the viper one has no network on stock rom) ready for whenever the next update comes out, thanks for your help
No problem :thumbup:
CASE CLOSED !

Which RUU should I use?

HBOOT : 1.36.0000
Radio : 5.1204.162.29
CID : 044 (Asia WWE)
(Do I need to give more information?)
I've installed an RUU once before, but I've reinstalled Windows and I don't have the file anymore. And I'm not sure which one to download, so can someone please put a link in to your reply . Instructions would be good, because I've got my phone into a bootloop once.
PS : I'm going back to stock, I'm not updating my HBOOT or anything.
Easier is to give the main version.

Or use a ruu and redownload the apps.

Sooner or later you will..
That depends on your CID but you will most certainly get it...

No matter what you did...
If you have a stock unmodified rom (root does not count), stock kernel and stock recovery you'll be able to get and install OTAs
