I have unlocked my bootloader again (frrom the HTCDEV website). I can now get into recovery. I have restored my backup which i made before.
I then copied an old boot.img from my original rom

Then thankfully my phone booted ok back to how it was originally.

You can't flash the 1.36 hboot,
coz your hboot is to low, with version 0.43.
The easiest way would be, to flash the 2.17 ruu,
and after that, you could Update your hboot.

thanks for the reply. so where can i find the 2.17 ruu
Also can you explain a bit on the steps that I need to complete with the 2.17 ruu

If your phone was destined for the UK, yeah.
fastboot get version-main
Will tell you which ROM you had originally, so the 401 needs to match.

I can't get that command to work with my fastboot.
c:\htc>fastboot-windows.exe fastboot get version-main
usage: fastboot [ <option> ] <command>
commands:
update <filename> reflash device from update.zip
flashall flash boot + recovery + system
flash <partition> [ <filename> ] write a file to a flash partition
erase <partition> erase a flash partition
getvar <variable> display a bootloader variable
boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] download and boot kernel
flash:raw boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] create bootimage and flash it
devices list all connected devices
reboot reboot device normally
reboot-bootloader reboot device into bootloader
options:
-w erase userdata and cache
-s <serial number> specify device serial number
-p <product> specify product name
-c <cmdline> override kernel commandline
-i <vendor id> specify a custom USB vendor id
The same also happens if i type.
c:\htc>fastboot-windows.exe get version-main

Sorry
fastboot getvar version-main

For him it's 'fastboot-windows.exe getvar version-main'

version-main: 1.26.206.2
c:\htc>fastboot-windows.exe getvar version-main
version-main: 1.26.206.2
When I check on htcruu.com/?dir=Endeavor
I can find:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_O2_UK_1.26.206.2_Radio_1.1204.90.13_release_251230_signed.exe
This has matching 206 version.
But this doesn't have 2.17 as mentioned previously.
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.17.401.2_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_274900_sined.exe
Any ideas on which one to choose?

The one that matches. Hopefully you'll get OTA updates to 2.17.206.x

RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_O2_UK_1.26.206.2_Radio_1.120 4.90.13_release_251230_signed.exe
I do notice in the title that it says 02_UK im not on 02 im on three.co.uk would this be an issue? if so its the only RUU that has 206 in the title. Also Is this the only way to update hboot versioin?
Thanks to all who are contributing and for your continued support in this matter. I had a shock when I almost originally bricked my one x.

Well where did you get the phone from?
That's the right RUU.
You can update the firmware by locking it, flashing the updated firmware and unlocking it. Either way your phone is gonna get wiped.

I bought the phone from ebay.co.uk from the UK
I am a little confused by this picture it says 1.29.401.11
Should i go ahead with the upgrade?
When i origianly did the below command i got a different version.
fastboot-windows.exe getvar version-main
version-main: 1.26.206.2
There is a discrepancy between 401 and 206 or does this not matter? or can i now use this ruu??
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.17.401.2_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_274900_signed.exe
And to confirm the next step, after this update i will need to relock the boot loader and then perform the update and then unlock it.
fastboot-windows.exe oem lock
fastboot-windows.exe oem rebootRUU
fastboot-windows.exe flash zip firmware.zip
then perform the unlock from the htcdev site.

Hey guys, dont know really where else to post this, but i need help upgrading my hboot.
Im currently on hboot 1.12 S-ON, cid VODAPO21
i tried flashing 1.36 firmware and it didnt work, gave an error remote:not allowed
i assume i need to go up in increments.
Trouble is , not sure which ones i should flash first and also where to find it. Ive downloaded RUU for my cid versions 1.26 and 1.29...not sure if you can extract the firmware from them, or how its done. Tried opening it in winrar/7-zip and could open em.

Still not there yet.
Still no luck I am afraid. I have tried both of the below RUU's and receive the error in the attached screenshot.
The RUU's that I have tried both give the same error. They are:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_O2_UK_1.26.206.2_Radio_1.1204.90.13_release_251230_signed
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.17.401.2_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_274900_signed
Thanks so much to the person who can help get me upgraded to Jelly Bean.

Anyone ?? Im still wanting to update to jellybean and can't yet. Can someone please help me out this this.

You did getvar version main and it said you have a '206 ROM, if a new enough RUU can't be found, you'll have to flash a backup. If you don't have one, check the backups thread for somebody else's. It has to be '206.

Initially I had Viper ROM , then I have tried to update my HTC One X with the following ROM
SkyDragon v 2.0 HOX
but failed to do so , then I tried to recover from the Stock Rom , also failed to do it successfully.
I have tried using adb commands to transfer the rom onto the sdcard too , but fails to transfer with error
Earlier I could go to recovery mode and see the rom zip files on my storage , but now I can access the storage too.
I am in a kind of fix which I am not sure if I can come out of , so all help would be appreciated.

Hboot is to low for newer roms. They don't run on that. What's the outcome of :

Here is a ruu for you.

seems to be the wrong ruu , I hit the following error

The ruu is correct
Did you relock the bootloader if it's unlocked ? Did you put the phone in the bootloader/fastboot usb mode ? Did you run the ruu with admin rights ?
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

yes, I did put the phone in the bootloader/fastboot usb mode and all the activity was run with admin rights.
However I am not sure how do I do this relock the bootloader if it's unlocked.
Can I unlock it or relock it as many times I need?
what is the command please? I will re-run the whole sequence again once I am able to charge the phone beyond 30%.

Charge the phone to 100% if you can. Go for safe !
Fastboot oem lock
That's the command.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Thanks much , now I am back to stock rom and booted
I guess now I have to update HBOOT , turnback to unlocked status and try to update the ROM to some other version if I wish to ?

Yes now you have to do all official ota's you can get. After those updates you unlock the bootloader and make a nandroid backup with the custom recovery and then you start flashing other roms

Sounds like you are s on and locked. You'll need to either unlock the boot loader,or run a full,signed ruu
Also,If you have a sensation,you have put your problem in the wrong forum. This is one x
