Trouble With OTA Update

Hi,
I have seen this question in another thread but there was no clear answer.
I want to update from 1.28 to 1.29 without having to relock the bootloader. I am on stock ROM, I have installed stock recovery and stock kernel, but I encounter a problem whilst installing.
After rebooting into recovery, the loading bar gets about one third, and the big icon in the middle turns into a phone with a red triangle?
What are my options? Thanks

You are not the only one,there are many threads about this issue but unfortunaly there isn't any solution.As far as i understood is a CID problem,the OTA doesn't recognize the CID because you are using an unlocked bootloader (doesn't mather if you relocked it,i've tryed),so..unfortunaly there is no solution to install the OTA.If you want you can get the RUU but you will lose everything on you'r phone...

Ok i think i have it figured out.After many atempts of upgrading i found an old nandroid backup of the 1.28.I tryed to do something to the phone (i tryed a mod but it didn't work) so i had to do a nandroid restore.After the restore the phone asked me again if i want to install the update,i selected YES.I don't realize why but this time worked.So if you have an old 1.28 nandroid backup first restore it,after that put the original recovery and install the 1.29 update.

I only have a backup from a few days ago?

Give that one a try and then try again to update.Mine was the backup when i first updated to 1.28,without SU or any other tweaks on the system,anyway,try it,doesn't hurt.

if you have deleted any system apps or used any system mods the ota won't work as far as I know
so if you have a nandroid backup of when you first installed your custom recovery flash that then install stock recovery and try again

stuck at htc screen

Firstly an introduction:
I bought my phone on Thursday so i'm pretty much a noob at this phone, had a pair of android phones before this so i'm not totally inexperienced.
At first I rooted my phone and installed a custom recovery, with that i installed CM10. This was working fine until some random soft reboot, nothing weird because it is a nightly and not stable software. Anyhow i saw the sense jelly bean rom and wanted to have a go at that. The process of getting the new hboot caused me nearly all the soft bricks on the horizon. I solved all these softbricks through some very helpfull posts on this site.
Anyhow i decided I prefer a vanilla rom so much so I wanted to go back to the CM10 rom with the new HBOOT, also i used the Bricked boot.img . Now when i start my phone it gets stuck at the quietly brilliant screen, I know its stuck when the screen dims. Also i was stupid enough to make no backups.When I try the second post in this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1599748 it gets failed messages, could this be because of the new HBOOT?
Does any of you know how to get my phone working again? Your help is much appreciated!

I think if you have upgraded your Hboot and not made a backup of your previous rom, then you may have to stick with the JB rom you had.
reflash the boot.img via fastboot of the JB rom you have then reinstall the rom.zip via recovery and all should be good.

Can I never go back to CM10?
That worked btw thanks very much!

Also I think you can flash an ice cream sandwich custom Rom or nandroid back up, you just can't execute a ruu anymore as the updated hboot won't allow you.

You're pretty much stuck with the sense jb ROM's for now.
no one has successfully booted a aosp/cm10 rom on the new Hboot.
there are dev's working a way to get aosp and cm10 ROM's booted on the newest firmware

Nandroid backups arent just an annoyance, they're bloody necessary.
Try getting getting a stock image and ADB pushing it.

As of now, there is no way to downgrade hboot or revert back to ics rom after installing a jb sense rom. Now all you can do is wait.

You cannot downgrade hboot, correct
But you can flash nandroid back ups and custom ics roms - just can't run ruus.
Sent from my HTC One X

if you install cm10 and flash its boot.img it should work (could have bugs)
new hboot only affects RUU installers and stock roms/ota's released by htc
Summary: New Hboot = Sense+ ROMs or any custom ROM

[Q] Stuck in fastboot! Locked Bootloader! Wich RUU?

Hey,
i was using AndroidRevolution HD 9.7.2 (ICS), for warranty purposes I have to get back to stock now. It's my friends device and it had no nandroid of the stock rom, so i wanted to revert it trough the original RUU. Unfortunately I used the wrong RUU and now i'm stuck in fastboot with locked bootloader. I picked the wrong RUU because I didn't found a matching one, so i used the HTC_Europe_1.29.401.12 ICS RUU.
Htcdev.com is down, so the only way to get it back to stock is through the original RUU, but I don't know which i have to use, can someone help me pls?
Version:
1.29.65.11
CID:
ORANG216

Are you sure your version number is right ? Never seen that number around !
Did you do
Fastboot getvar version-main
I have seen the orange *.**.069 and the 61 but never the 65 !

hi,
yes i used the correct fastboot command.
The version is correct, it's the Orange_Switzerland number: x.xx.65.x, the number is also listed in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1660807

Ah yes you are very right sir, but nonetheless i don't see a ruu for you anywhere .... Maybe your firmware is listed in the collection thread. I check for you now !
Yes its there for you
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376
Its the firmware package that will lift your hboot to 1.36. After that you can flash any rom you want ! :thumbup:
Edit : sorry you want to go to stock for warranty !
---------- Post added at 07:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:18 PM ----------
The only thing i can think of to get you back to stock is like this !
First you flash the firmware to get the hboot to 1.36, then you go here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140
You download the 2.17 nandroid backup orange 001 ! Restore it completely and flash back the 2.17 stock recovery ..... Then you reboot the phone and go into softwareupdates and check manually for the JB OTA. And install it !

Snap! I forgot to check that thread, thanks a lot. After installing the firmware package, can I install the HTC_Europe JB RUU?

No never.....do as i described in the post above .... that's the only option you have now that i know of !
So flash the CORRECT firmware then you restore the 2.17.65 nandroid backup ! Yes the 2.17 one !!! Then you update to stock JB from orange from within the phones update menu !

hey,
since I had a locked bootloader i couldn't enter the recovery to flash the backup. Today htcdev.com came back online, so I unlocked the bootloader again. Now i wanted to flash the stock_nandroid but there's an 404 error on the 2.17 version. Isn't there a way to go back to stock through a RUU?

You are going to be 1 lucky bastard mate !!! I found a link on the 2.17.65 ruu ! It should work ....link is coming
Ow wait one thing ! Did you update the hboot already ???

CRAP ! now you need the nandroid backup
now you have to wait on the reply matt is getting in the collection thread
But you can flash any JB rom out here now.....so at least that's something

Something had to go wrong
Well, i contacted matt95 from the Nandroid_Backup collection thread and he contacted the uploader.
I hope it will soon be online again. :good:
So the only way now, would be with the JB Orange x.xx.64.x RUU?
Isn't there a way of downgrading the hboot back to 0.95?

no unfortunately not.....sorry mate, and yeah i saw your reply already in the collection thread. it will work out you know....just some more extra patience

Thank you for the help and the quick responses! :good:

[Q] Many questions

Hi, Im really sick of my HOX. I have so many questions.
I had official stock rom in my HOX, but it have Wi-Fi issue - 3.18.401.1. So I badly decide to install custom rom, I didnt took a nandroid backup of the stock rom and the only one i took is rooted rom. Then I installed CM 10.1 and the wi-fi issue disapear, thats good, but it is very unoptimized for HOX - battery, USB cable, photos,... So I need to back to stock. Thats my story and I have many questions:¨
1)To go back to stock I need RUU or there is more options?¨
2)I cant use any RUU because I had installed the latest firmware. Can I change the version of firmware in my phone to use RUU?
3)Who depevelop RUUs? How can I officially get it? When they are going to release new version of RUU?
4)To go back to stock need I the same version of I had (3.18.401.1) or newer?
5)Can HTC (I can pay for it) flash me the original ROM, if I have voided the warranty?
Thank you for your responds. I m really nervous because I need it as soon as possible because I fly to the USA and I want to have reliable mobile device with WIFI. SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH

Thank you so much, i forgot one problem, When i restored the only one nandroid backup I have, it boots but touchscreen did not function. So can you suggest me how to back to stock ASAP.

HTC releases RUU's. Those are the official updates. Haven't seen an hBoot update for the HOX for awhile. It was a know issue that the 3.18 base has wifi issues. You can switch to any ROM with 3.19 base (most of them) and your wifi issues should clear up. Sense ROM's for me have always seemed to be less glitchy/more stable than non-sense.

1. Either a RUU or a nandroid backup. There are plenty of stock backups available on XDA.
2. No
3. HTC develops them. They are never official releases, they're leaked by HTC staff.
4. Same or newer.
5. I guess so but there are easier (and cheaper) ways of doing it.

Can you write me a link with instructions and nandroid backups of stock android.

RUU's are stock. Here is the link to the web page you want http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2140308 . You need to find the right RUU for your phone depending on where it was manufactured at. You'll just have to read a bit to figure that out. HTC won't individually send you a RUU, you just have to download it.

The 3.18 and 1.29 are referring to two completely different things. You can update, forget about the 3.18 with RUU's. Put this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwxLDMsIm9yZy50cml0b25zb2Z0LmNpZGdldHRlciJd on your phone and it will tell you your CID. Write this down or something. It should look like HTC_001, or something similar. Then you can go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140 and look for your CID and download and flash and you'll be back to stock.

Wouldn't say you're dumb. I've bricked a couple phones in my time in rooting. Just take your time and if you feel like something is wrong then STOP and ask. That's the best advice I can give, so you're doing the right thing:good:

And one hopefully last question can I use it in case of warranty after that or not?

Warranty depends on hardware issues or not. They know the bootloader was unlocked, because it says relocked and not locked again. So they might won't give warranty.
But please stay in one thread now !

As I predict some more problems and questions:
1) If I try to use the recovery it says MD5 mischeck or something like that. I found the solution with using adb but if I try it, it wrote device not found, I cant use Massstorage (i dont know why).
2) If it will be succesful can I use OTA?

No offence, but you really shouldn't have been doing any of this in the first place.
You clearly understand nothing about any of the processes your trying to do.
1- Go into Recovery (CWM) and Mount USB
2- Now From your PC create a folder in the root of the storage and call it "clockworkmod"
3- In the "clockworkmod" folder create another folder named "backup"
4- Extract the .zip file in that folder (do not change the name of the folder extracted cause it could give md5sum problems)(also the folder name must not have any space between words)
5- Before continuing on the phone, open that folder from the pc and copy the boot.img in the folder that you prefer
6- Reboot phone into Fastboot mode and flash the boot.img by typing
Code:
CWM NAND: fastboot flash boot path/to/boot.img
TWRP NAND: fastboot flash boot boot.emmc.win
7- Reboot the phone into Recovery again
8- Go to Backup & Restore> restore> and here choose the folder previously extracted, and that's it

Sorry for wrong information for firmware from nandroid backups, i ment from stock OTA files matching your CID and main version or from link with only firmware version from OTA (Thanks again Mr Hofs) - morning isn't my part of day

Thanks!

You need the 3.14 stock recovery. Its not updated ....not even to the 3.20 base.
If you need a stock one you can't use one from a nandroid backup, its a custom recovery because the nandroid is made with a custom one !
