Hello all, I am rooted stock 4.0.3 and I do not want to risk messing up my phone by flashing a Rom but I want my phone to be as much like jelly bean as possible. Please share any tips or apps that can help me achieve this.

Nova launcher
Nova Launcher, Holo Locker then download the ICS Dialer, JB Messaging and JB Contacts app from appstore. That's about as close as you'll get without flashing, in all honesty nothing will go wrong, you've already rooted so I assume recovery is installed so you're 99% there.

actually i havent installed recovery. i have tried both cwm and the team win recovery (cant remember the initials for the whole name) every time i try via my computer, or rom manager it will install but it effs up my phone and it just sits there on the screen saying "this build is for developmental purposes only" and i eventially have to reboot myphone myself. what am i doing wrong? and curtis: what rom are you using? how many times have you flashed one? and how manytimes has something went wrong? im only 15 and i dont have a job yet so if something does go wrong i cant get a new phone and my mom would be P.O.

Just follow the steps on the one click toolkit, all you need to do is unlock bootloader then install recovery and reboot and done. Just make sure you download the correct one (GSM or CDMA). I've flashed this device plenty of times in the 3 month I've had it with no problems at all, I've also messed about with my last two devices with no issues. And I'm only 17, I'm on an apprenticeship wage so I can't really afford a new device but it's really worth doing, if something goes wrong you can always depend on the people at XDA to help you out in recovering it.
I use MyOneV, its based on Sense Lite but I do prefer the Cyanogenmod based ROMs such as CM10 but I can't get enough of the Sense camera.

Installing apps of jb will not help... The smoothness....!!! The feel of using it will never come at any cost... And dont worry, i hav flashed roms approx. 50 times and nothing went wrong...
Recovery:- try twrp 2.4.4.0 and choose the correct one.... i.e. u r primoU or primoC...
Kernel:- flash dat seperately via fastboot..
Rom:- its up to you...!!!
P.S. please do not be on stock... Try a sense rom if u like it... But no stock... Its not deodexed so u cant even mod it freely...
R: Apps to make jelly bean without flashing rom
Flashing roms is easy once you flash the first one
I suggest you to flash CM 10 but since you want jb feel without it so here you go :
Apex launcher
Holo locker
Camera jb +
Clock jb+
Flash Google now for stock ROM if you want
Jelly bean status bar
Jb messenging app
ICS dialer
Install this much and you are good to go and I highly recommended you to flash Google now its the best feature of jb and flashing this also will not change your ROM or system but since you mentioned that you don't want to flash anything its your choice but its highly recommended
Yes I have flashed google now and am thinking about flashing a Rom. I have noticed google now has a horible amount of lag though.. and is there anyway I can flash a Rom without flashing a kernel as for that would require me to use a computer and right now my computer is down. Or can i flash the boot.IMG using just ny phone?

If you unlock your bootloader and install clockworkmod to get root (this is the normal way to do it as I know), then yes you can.
But you always have to check if your rom is compatible with the kernel. So you may have to install a custom rom to be able to install a particular rom.
(please hit thanks if this helps you, because I would like to get access to de dev-section )
Ah right, so once I have that installed (as a backup) I can install any kernel and ruu? I haven't done it in a while so want to make sure I'm doing it right

There are different kernel versions for ICS / JB and Sense / AOSP, so make sure you choose the right one for the ROM you are using.
You will be able to flash a RUU to get your stock software back, but only one that installs the same version you had before flashing a custom ROM, or a newer one (read: you cannot downgrade using a RUU).
Hello all,
I'm asking for you help about my dead (almost) HTC ONE X that I got 1 month ago...
I tried to flash a new custom ROM on it and everything went fine for rooting and stuff...
The ROM that I was supposed to flash needed a boot.img to be flashed first, which I did but I forgot to put the ZIP containing the custom ROM in my sdcard. Now, when I reboot my phone, it freezes on the HTC logo and can't go on.
I still can get it connected via adb and recovery.
I restored my backup but it doesn't change a thing to make it work.
I tried a hard factory reset
I pushed the zip file that I was supposed to flash, but when I try to flash it from recovery, it can't be found!!!
I don't know what else to do, I need help......please and thank you in andvance !
Go to recovery, mounts and storage, then mount usb storage. With your usb-cable connected you sould be able to copy over your ROM to sd-card and flash normally.

Alright stay cool, your phone isn't bricked. Download this: http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img. and flash in fastboot. Go to fastboot> fastboot flash recovery [the file.img] After that try mounting again and it should work.

I can highly recommend CM10 provided that you can live without sense. Really smooth and fully functional.
And remember to flash the boot.img from CM10 if you decide to install it. :thumbup:

I've never tried skydragon ROM and still think you should flash CyanogenMod 10. It is totally safe for everyday use. You can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1786696
And one more thing: flashing skydragon requires updating hboot which might be too tricky and has its own disadvantages so not recommending that.

Some roms are more minimal with just the basic apps, whereas some are nearer to the official HTC roms, with Sense etc.
Make sure that you have the correct firmware HBoot for any particular rom. By the sounds of it, you can't currently install the JellyBean custom roms (bar CM10) with the Hboot you have.

Okay, I've gotten the bootloader unlocked, Team Win Recovery (which is the only one that works) installed, and AOKP installed. My phone is constantly rebooting. How do I get past this?
this is commonly seen when you have the OTA Updated radio. probably best to RUU and get stock radio back on and start your unlocking and rom flashing all over.
I'm sorry, but what does this mean?

Good ol' RUU exe and rom.zip in the temp folder.
I have rooted my one v and all is fine, but now I want to put a custom Rom on it and shpongle looked great so I followed the steps...
1. Did a nandroid backup
2. Extracted the boot.img
3. Went into cwm and wiped the phone and dalvik.
4. Installed Rom.zip
5.restarted and before it starts I went into bootloader
6.went into fastboot and flashed boot.img
7.and then restart and it gets stuck on the splash screen with the stupid warning from HTC and HTC dev.
If someone could write a really fool proof way to install this Rom and what is going wrong with what I'm doin I would love you forever coz I just want to free this little pocket rocket to 1.8ghz
