[Q] HTC ONE X stock rom update fail

Hi ALL,
I'm new to Android and I just brought a used HTC ONE X. Previous user updated this phone to JB custom rom. I just wanted to reflash the phone using HTC official RUU. So followed some youtube videos and tried to do it. Some how due my poor knowledge in Android rom details I tried with a wrong RUU. So it went fail and then tried to recover that also failed. Now phone is just boot up to fastboot menu. unfortunately I can't find a sutable RUU too. My phone details are shown below. Please help !!! :crying:
Radio version - 1.1204.105.14
cid - vodap102 (Vodafone UK)
Hboot - 1.12.0000
rom ver - 2.17.161.4
Please help me to find proper RUU.
Thanks !!

I can't find your either but there is another method. First you need to get fastboot commands working ! If you know something about that ?
Install HTC drivers
http://db.tt/gXVxa3Dp
then download these files to your pc
http://db.tt/ldx3qOOU
C:\fastboot\*the files i gave you*
Then open a command prompt inside the fastboot folder on the pc, hold shift and right click inside the folder and choose "open command prompt here" or something similar
Then you put the phone in the bootloader and connect the cable to the pc
Then type
Fastboot devices
It should return a serial of the phone ! Lets start with all this and report back

Appreciate for any advice on how can i update my HTC One X device
Thanks

You can use this !
http://androidfiles.org/ruu/securek...Radio_1.1204.103.14_release_257076_signed.exe
It will bring you back to full stock, after that you can update up to JB.

do i need to use a tool to run the setup in my HTC One X?
sorry for the dumb question but this is my very first time in handling Andriod OS
thanks

You can set your phone with pc or your hands...

The RUU is your tool. You hold down the power + volume down button together as long as it takes for you to see the bootloader
On top of the bootloader will say
Unlocked
Locked
Relocked
One of these 3 !
To run the ruu the bootloader must either be LOCKED or RELOCKED !
To lock the bootloader you need this fastboot command
Fastboot oem lock
After that you execute the ruu.exe from the pc and follow instructions. Charge the battery to full power before you start !!!

i tried running the ruu.exe on my laptop but i received an error saying that complete first the current setup before proceeding or contact your administrator

Oke try this
Right click mousebutton on the ruu.exe and select
Run as administrator
And/or reboot the pc once

there was an error on opening in the usb master when the phone opened on the Hboot.
any idea on how can i fix this?

That's normal....we all have that. Its because of the usb cable being plugged in !
But don't press on HBOOT or anything else. Just put it on the first page of the bootloader and run the ruu as above

no luck...im still having the same error while executing the ruu.exe
anything elso i can do?

Hmm well afaik its a computer problem (no administrator rights of some kind) maybe transfer the ruu to another pc and try it again ?

ok will look for another laptop but this is the second laptop that i used but the same error occuers on both
user id used is already the administrator..
how i wish there is still other ways i can update my htc one x

Yes it could be done with a stock nandroid backup but if you don't have that. The problem is your low hboot. I don't think there is one that low available for you.
Can you give these commands another go for me
Fastboot oem readcid
Fastboot getvar version-main
Or a direct hboot flash but i need your exact CID for that ! But then you are still dependant on a custom rom.....

equal dianapa
sir, where should i run the command you just requested?

In steps
1 Download android sdk and unpack the bundle
2 uninstall HTC syncmanager if you have it installed but leave the drivers
3 put the phone in the bootloader
4 navigate in the android sdk folder to the platform tools folder. Hold down shift and click the right mouse button and select "open command window here"
5 type in that window
Fastboot getvar version main
and
Fastboot oem readcid

version is 0.5a
CID = HTC_044

That's not the main version number....try again, it looks like this
1.28.401.** or 2.17.415.**. These are examples !

i cannot run the fastboot getvar version main in the command window
only fastboot getvar version is the being executed which gives me the value of 0.5a

They are all good .... Depends on what you want. With sense or without sense ?
You need to download the android sdk bundle, unpack it and navigate to the platform tools folder
Hold the arrow in that folder and hold shif + right click mousebutton then select
Open command window here
Put the phone in the bootloader and type in the command window on the pc
Fastboot devices
Check if a serial comes up. And what recovery are you using ? Type and version ?

What do you mean with that ?

How to get One X back to stock?

So I bought a second hand One X today. It's rooted and on Android Revolution rom.
How do I get the right RUU for my phone and how do install it etc.?
Thanks.

You need to perform a fastboot command
Fastboot getvar version-main
From there we can check for a ruu :thumbup:

Okay and how do I do that?

Oke here we go
Download the android sdk bundle (Google), unpack it and navigate to the platform tools folder ..... open a command window there
Point in the folder, hold shift + right mouse button and select "open command window here"
If you have HTC syncmanager installed ? Uninstall it but leave the drivers on .....
Then you put the phone in the bootloader by holding the power button + volume - button endlessly until you see the bootloader !!!
Then type this in the command window on the pc
Fastboot getvar version-main

It just says waiting for device. I have the correct drivers installed. Don't know what to do :/

Do you have MYHTC in the device manager in windows ?

No. And now I just can't get past fastboot, this thing is driving me nuts

I have the right RUU. I just can't get out of fasboot/bootloader and my battery is lower than 30% so i can't install it.

Can you enter the custom recovery ?

No - However I've got it out of fastboot now. It boots and works etc. but its still on the custom rom.
I have my right RUU - after the phone is charged to 30%, can I just flash the RUU? Not having to re-lock the bootloader? Cos that's how I got here in the first place.

Oke ! To install the ruu you need to
Relock the bootloader
Keep the phone in the bootloader
Execute the ruu from the pc with admin rights

Yes but when I did that last time it got stuck in the bootloader.

Yeah well there is no other way to install a ruu

I did it and the RUU just got stuck on the "checking..." part

How do you know you got the right ruu ? First you state that you dont know how to perform the getvar version command, so you never know the exact right main version. If you take it from the running arhd rom its 3.14.401 or 2.17.401.....the software number from the custom rom has nothing to do with the real main version of the phone. It can be completely different

It's ok. its all sorted now RUU works
Thanks for your help

Good !
CASE CLOSED !

You have a very old h-boot so you need to upgrade it first!!
So you need to flash the stock rom for your hboot or the ruu of your hboot and then when the hboot is 1.36 or 1.39 are the two best, you can flash a rom without problems!!
You dont have to unlock bootloader because is unlocked!

1: no
2: no
3: yes (explain at the end)
4: flash a new custom rom (better then stock)
5: no
6: you install a new rom by
Flashing the boot.img with fastboot commands, make a FULL wipe in recovery and install a new rom.
The easiest way to get you upgraded is to get you to full stock and update via official HTC ota
Can you perform a fastboot command :
Fastboot getvar version-main

Try a reboot of the pc and the phone ..... It should work. All the things seems to be in order. Maybe you have another pc around to test it on.

Backup everything from the phone you need, even a backup of the sdcard ! Because this will wipe all
1: charge the battery if its at low level
2: put the phone in the bootloader and relock the bootloader
Fastboot oem lock
3: keep the phone in the bootloader/fastboot usb mode
4: select the ruu with a right mouse button click and select

5: sit back and follow the installer
This will bring back the phone to full stock, after this you go into the settings menu - about - software updstes.....you update as much as you can until it doesn't detect any updates anymore !!!
