Hello there,
I've had my HTC One V (Primo U GSM) since early January 2013 and I've unlocked the bootloader, flashed CWM and installed custom ROMs. Unfortunately, the device has RAM issues and it makes it unusable which is disappointing as I quite like this phone. I'm currently on Paranoid Android (the 4.1.2 build) with the latest 4.1 Hellboy Kernel and I was wondering if it's possible to fix these issues with any applications or system tweaking. If not; How would I go about relocking the bootloader and resorting back to stock (So I can take the device back to the store and claim a refund and put it towards a new device)?
Thank you,
Curtis.
Next time please post this in Q&A but this link should help you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2074936

Hello,
I know very well on iphone but completely newbie to Android stuffs
I would like to flash a vanilla rom on my HTC X and i also want to ensure I able to flash back my stock rom when I am bore with it.
Would be very much appreciate if anyone able to show some guide.
help
have you unlocked your bootloader and installed recovery?
No, it completely new as just a week old.
Everything still in stock except few apps installed.
You need to go to HTC Dev website and unlock your bootloader first. HTC one x will not be listed, so you will have to use "other supported models" Follow the instructions to unlock your bootloader. Remember, doing this will void your warranty. Once you've unlocked the bootloader, i will guide you installing recovery and help you flashing a ROM.
there are not currently any vanilla (AOSP) roms, except a themed one i believe.
I too am waiting for an AOSP rom (CM9 should be the one) however for sense based roms Android Revolution & Insert Coin One X are both very good roms by some awesome Devs
Hi mgf8384,
Thanks but temporary i will stick with stock.
I have a ROM by Jdroid Its version 2.5.4. Its about as Vanilla as you can get. Its pretty much like stock Ice Cream Sammich thats on the Galaxy Nexus. Much better than Sense. Hopefully this will help.
Cm9 is out for hox and its pretty good its all vanilla no sense at all ) only wifi tethering doesn't work.. do you want me to give you full instructions how to get there from stock and have a back up of stock too ?

I don't have this phone. My friend owns one. He's asking me to update his device to Android 4.0 unofficially.
I have some questions :-
1) Which is the best method to root this via stock?
2) Which is the most stable ICS ROM? Any major/minor bugs?
3) Please link me to a thread that gives instructions on how to install recovery and other procedure for installing ROMs on this device.
4) Is there any way to return back to stock if I accidentally soft brick it or make some mistake?
PS : I have quite of experience in rooting, flashing ROMs and other stuff.
Thanks in advance

Hello,
I just bought a Nexus Galaxy week ago, I received the OTA update to 4.1.1, but not to 4.1.2. Is there any way I can download it and installed with the cable or something?
Should I let the original software on the phone or flash one of the ROMs found in the development section?
What are the advantages of the stock one over the others?
The things that kind of bothers me with the stock one are: no T9 dialer and no configuration possible on the drawer (for example, I would like to have the airplane mode directly on the drawer like in CM ROMs).
Thank you!

1. this is the general section, questions belong in the q&a section
2. custom roms offer more customization than stock rom, read the threads in the dev section and you will get idea.
3. if you just want to update to 4.1.2 there are stock roms in the dev section
4. only YOU can asnwer if you should flash a custom rom or not
5. next time post in the correct section
If you just wanna give stock 4.1.2 a go before going custom then follow this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895
Bear in mind it WILL wipe your phone as you have to unlock the bootloader but at least you've then done it!!
i think this would be more appropriate:

I'd recommend to give the stock 4.1.2 (yakju or takju) a try, then you can decide if you need a custom ROM or not.

Thanks a lot for all the answers!
Sorry to post in the wrong section.
I'd recommend giving JBSourcery ROM a try, it's quite possibly the best ROM that I've ran on my GNex so far.
Come to the dark side. We have...ok,we dont exactly have weed and cookies,but we have roms and kernels.

Forget 4.1.2 ... flash 4.2
Hello~
I've been trying for the past gawshdamn three hours to enable my phone to run Google's Jelly Bean software... but to no avail.
It's been a long time since I last rooted my phone and did all the technical actions; so I'm fairly behind on what to do and all.
First off, this is my current Software Information from Settings:
Android Version
4.0.3
HTC Sense Version
4.0
Software Number
Android Revolution HD 6.0.0 by mike1986
The phone is from Optus and I've rooted it and installed the custom rom.
My attempt:
I've tried to install the Optus OTA which I found...Only to find that it would be stupid to update an official OTA on a custom ROM.
I then tried looking for a custom ROM and found that there is none available for my model?
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1997542)
So I want to ask...
How do I update my phone to the JellyBean with Sense? Or is this option even available to me?
If no... how can I update my phone to the Jellybean without sense?
This is giving me such a headache tonight
I would appreciate help,
Thanks!
In the general section, go to stock cid backups thread and download the nanodroid backup for Optus. Then restore it on cmw recovery. This should get you back to stock.
And JB for Optus hasn't been released yet. It's eta is mid December but I highly doubt there will not be delays. The original eta was early December.

Thanks for the method of returning to stock.
I successfully returned it to stock OS now
I'm running stock, unlocked GB on my glide (it came rooted, unlocked, and all AT&T crapware removed as well) after buying it from ebay quite a while ago. I want to update to ICS, but wish to ask two questions first:
#1. Do I HAVE TO install stock ICS before using a custom ICS? I fear this will remove the phone's unlocked status (am in Australia).
#2. Do the ICS ROMs have a lot of issues compared to GB? I've read about issues with bluetooth and the signal cutting out.
Cheers
You might have to re-unlock your phone,once you upgrade to Stock ICS. You'll have to try and see yourself. But say that your unlocked on ICS you can use any custom ROM and remain unlocked.
As for ROM stability I'm using CRdroid 4.4 KitKat no issues
For more info on ROMs and stability see my guide
All the info about unlocking and staying unlocked is on there as well
