I tried updated to JB from Viper 2.7.1 by attempting to go back to stock using RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_TMO_UK_1.28.110.7_R2_Radio_1.1204.103.14_release 256500_signed.exe & it didnt go to plan.
After I relocked the bootloader I couldnt get any further with the process & my phones battery ran flat, I had to use the battery script to get enough power back into the phone so I could continue, again It wouldnt work, at first I thought my phone had been bricked but when I re-unlocked the bootloader Viper came back to life.
What is the best way to go about updating to JB?
My CID T-MOB005
HBoot 0.94
Radio 1.1204.103.14
Are you sure you got the right version number ?
Do the fastboot command
Fastboot getvar version-main
If it matches this ruu
http://androidfiles.org/ruu/securek...Radio_1.1204.105.14_release_260731_signed.exe
Then you can use it. The 1.28 ruu fails because it wants to downgrade the hboot. Hboot 0.94 is in line with the 1.29 version number. So my guess is that when you use this one you will succeed !
after using fastboot getvar version-main I got 1.28.110.7
Hmm funny .... Download the ruu i linked
Keep the bootloader locked ... And keep the phone in the bootloader and select the ruu.exe by clicking with the right mouse button ...select RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR
C:\x>fastboot getvar version-main

Sent you PM !
thanks Mr Hofs
does the .exe need to be in a specific folder when run? i.e. platform-tools
is the file OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_TMO_UK_1.28.110.7-1.26.110.5_release256527.zip for updating stock ROMS?
it will probably be Saturday before I can make another attempt, I will let you know how I get on
No afaik you don't need to run it rom a specific place. But running it from within the fastboot can't do any harm
just an update to this thread
ran RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_TMO_UK_1.29.110.11_Radio_1.1204.105.14_release_260731_signed.exe successfully.
performed OTA updates from TMobile culminating in JB :laugh:
finally installed ViperX 3.3.7 & all OK until I restored apps in Titanium, now Sense crashes randomly, I must have restored an old version of Sense by mistake.
Thanks for your help MrHofs
Nice ! :thumbup:
Or did you restore some of the old system ? Either way at least the updates worked fine
it looks like Ive restored something I shoudnt have!
I would recommend the RUU route to updating to JB every time, nice n simple
Unless the ruu is not available !

hi everyone,
right now im on arhd and i need to go to stock, my ota http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1606676 is middle east and i have the stock recovery.img (also need to relock bootloader)
now how do i flash back the stock rom?
please i need a step by step guide
thanks
Get the correct ruu.
Go to fastboot.
Flash stock recovery (although I don't think it's necessary, but flashing will just make it full proof)
Relock the bootloader via fastboot.(by fastboot oem lock )
Run the ruu on windows.
* Ensure you have the right ruu. See threads on how to find one.

What is your actual no. if it is not 401 ?
Can you go to fastboot mode and type fastboot getvar version-main and let us know what no. is written.
e.g:
Code:
C:\WINDOWS\system32>cd\
C:\>cd fastboot
C:\fastboot>fastboot getvar version-main
version-main: 1.29.707.11
finished. total time: 0.006s
C:\fastboot>

thanks so now totally stock after relock and stock recovery...right?
i mean auto update???
thankss
That's the latest. The update is for the lower version. But if there is any OTA update, you should be able to receive it after you revert to stock rom.
Before I start, , I want to say that I have read other similar posts and not found an answer to my query.
First, I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful stuff you guys do on these forums. I have used your expertise for many previous issues that I have had in the past. I cherish my Androids a lot more now thanks to you guys.Now, onto the problem that I am currently having. I will try to make it short.
SHORT VERSION:
I need help to unroot the phone and I can't get the "correct" RUU to work.
LONG VERSION:
I rooted my phone and installed Android Revolution HD for ICS. After a while, I decided to upgrade to JB via CM10.
At first, the WiFi would start giving me problems, it would get stuck at "on and never going off" or "off and never turning on." So I remedied that by just restarting the One X which was fine. Then the screen started to act up. Whenever I restart my phone the screen would work just fine. I would put it down for a while, but whenever the screen goes off, it responds slower and slower until the display no longer turns on. However, the phone still works as if it was on via the touchscreen. I can still open apps, just as long as I can guess where to go.
This left me with two thoughts:
1.) The screen is not broken because on restarts, or before it blacks out completely, the screen is just fine. No dead pixels, no lines, no light bleeding to anything.
2.) The OS (I think) is not broken because it always responds to what I am doing.
Therefore I think there exists a problem between the hardware trying trying to communicate with the screen. So I want to return the phone back to the manufacturer.
I have looked on other forums and I am here to ask for help. I can't find a way to solve my problem.
When I try to unroot, I get stuck at the RUU portion. And I honestly think I am using the correct RUU. As you guys know, I need to put the phone back to its original everything to get a chance for the manufacturer to help me out.
So please! Help me with the unroot!
On a side note: the phone works perfect when it is charging AND with the screen on. Don't know why.
This is my phones info from the HBOOT screen:
HBOOT-0.94.0000
CPLD-None
MICROP-None
RADIO-1.1204.90.13
eMMC-bootmade: disabled
CPU-bootmode: disabled
HW Secure boot: enabled
MODEM PATH: OFF
Apr 11 2012, 02:27:11
CID: HTC___622
For those that are wondering, this is the RUU that I used.
Endeavor/RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_hTC_Asia_HK_1.26.708.2_Radio_1.1204.90.13_release_251215_signed.exe
Maybe that was the issue, I don't know. There are 4 HK (Hong Kong) RUUs if I'm not mistaken.
I look forward to your help and response!
Once again, thanks for all the helpful tips/tricks/flashes and roms.
Gratefully,
johnchiu
Oke are you familiar with the fastboot commands ?
Do these 2 commands with the phone in fastboot usb mode !
Fastboot getvar version-main
and
Fastboot oem readcid
To get the right info for the ruu you need !
Try this one:
http://htcruu.com/securekey.php?fil...Radio_2.1204.122.17_release_268338_signed.exe
Although, I thought the 2.17 was available, that one should install on your hboot.
You'll need to do:
fastboot oem lock
Then run the RUU as administrator (right click it).
So when I did the "fastboot oem lock" whenever I go back to the hboot, on top it says that my phone has been "***RELOCKED***"
I remember before I unlocked the phone it said ***LOCKED*** so if it now says ***RELOCKED*** and I want to ship it in for repairs...wouldn't that be a red flag that I tampered with the phone?
Also, I have SuperUser installed on the phone, how do I get rid of it? Because I think that looks awfully suspicious too haha.
I am downloading the RUU right now, hopefully it works, I will let you know how it goes. Thanks @BenPope
Your bootloader will always say that its been relocked after you unlocked it, can't do anything about that ! And the RUU will flash a stock rom, stock recovery and the stock boot.img back. So all traces of previous root is gone !
So what should I do to make my phone as close to it was first coming out of the box.
For example, I really want to get rid of SuperUser but I don't know how to.
How do I check if everything is stock? Etc.
Thanks again for your help!
Just run the ruu and everything is stock !!! Can't get closer to stock than that !
A ruu wipes the phone 100%
I tried it again...and it failed again. I don't know what to do.
Every RUU that I have tried to install so far all say:
ERROR [140]: BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR
How is it possible that every version fails? Please help!
Hmm do the fastboot commands i posted in the beginning of the thread, the cid and main version commands ..... See whats comes out ?
Sorry forgot to post them. These are the latest ones.
C:\fastboot>fastboot getvar version-main
version-main: 2.18.401.2

There is the bug ! You need at least a 2.17 based RUU ! But i dont where to find it at the moment
Are there no ways around it? I can't be the only person with this problem can I? I purchased this phone back in May 2012. So my phone was one of the original units sent out. Thanks for your rapid response and time.
Maybe there is one at the file factory but i dont have an account there

That's odd.
You have the European version-main and a Hong Kong CID.
You might want to look for a backup of a HK ROM to restore.
Hi,
I still haven't got an OTA JB upgrade for my HTC One X, so I decided to update it myself based on the information on this forum.
I downloaded and ran the right RUU for my CID. After an initial error (and some research which suggested I needed to be on a higher hboot version), I upgraded the firmware to 1.39 and ran it again. The RUU failed with an error 159 which indicates that the version on the device is higher than the one I was trying to install. Then it asked me to run through some recovery steps, tried to update and failed again with the same error. It also indicated that the recovery was successful.
Now the phone is stuck on the splash screen and simply doesn't boot. I rebooted into fastboot mode and did a factory reset but doesn't seem to help.
Any help or pointers to information is appreciated. I'm probably completely wrong, but my guess is that the firmware version is too high for the ROM it is currently running - is this right?
Thanks,
Scanner
post the result of the following:
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main
fastboot getvar cid
this is what I get -
Code:
C:\AndroidSDK\sdk\platform-tools>fastboot getvar version-main
version-main: 3.14.401.31
finished. total time: 0.010s
C:\AndroidSDK\sdk\platform-tools>fastboot getvar cid
cid: HTC__001
finished. total time: 0.011s
Fixed.
I used the 3.14.401.27 RUU originally - I think this was incompatible with hboot 1.39.
3.14.401.31 seems to work.
Cheers,
Scanner

no, you cannot downgrade with ruu, you can however with a nandroid but as far as I can see your main version does not match your cid. I will still post a link for some nandroid backups but use at your own risk>>>>>http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140

First, there is no need to write in such big and bold letters. No one here is blind and it makes your posts almost unreadable.
Second, if others already show you where to look the least thing you can do is read which you obviously didn't do. If you had read the linked post you would have noticed that your MID is 0PJ10000 and clsA clearly states in his instructions that you need the MID 0PJA11000. His instructions even tell you which fastboot command is needed to change the MID.
fastboot oem writecid BS_US001
fastboot oem writemid 0PJA11000
If it doesn't work again problem at your end...
