[Q] HTC ONE X - Touchscreen not responding - HTC One X

Dear Xda'ers,
I recently bought a second hand HTC ONE X.
I was not convinced about the battery life so i decided to root the device and to flash another ROM.
Everything went fine till i had to flash the ROM. In the tutorial they showed a step where you had to boot the device into recovery mode by using the terminal "fastboot boot boot.img". Unfortunately this step didn't work out for me, it stayed stuck at the HTC LOGO. So i decided to just do it without the command and flash it from the recovery mode at the device itself. (Power + Volume down --> Recovery --> Install from zip --> ...)
Not a good idea ...
The device came in an endless bootloop and recovery mode was not accessible.
After a few hours searching at forums i finally found a solution.
I tried to instal many different Rom's but none of them would work, except for one: " LeeDrOiD_One_Xtreme_V6.4.0 ".
Again everything went fine,the phone started up as it was supposed to do.
Unfortunately when the phone was booted, the touchscreen did not respond to anything at all..
I recorded it :
youtu.be / tXnVFkzwvu0
(there is are spaces in the link, because i'm not able to post links yet.)
This is my first post on XDA, i would rather just look at existing topics, but none of them worked out. So can please somebody help me?
I guess I still have a few months warranty but the bootloader is unlocked so bye bye warrenty.
Some details from recovery mode, who might be usefull for you guys :

Use CWM/TWRP to flash new roms. First you need to flash the boot.img from the LeeDroidROM.zip... Since you haven't done that, it might be a reason for the non working touch screen...
Follow these steps:
1. Reboot your phone into bootloader (Power + Volumedown)
2. Go into fastboot and then connect to your PC
3. Go to your fastboot folder and open CMD over there and fire the following command:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash boot boot.img (You will find this in LeeDroidROM.zip)
fastboot erase cache
4. Disconnect your phone from PC and select HBOOT and the select Recovery from there.
5. Once CWM screen is shown:
Wipe Data
Cache Partition-Wipe cache
Advanced-Wipe Dalvic cache
6. Now install zip from sd: select your ROM.zip and flash it.
7. Reboot

Maybe a mismatch between the ROM(s) you are using (other than stock obviously) and your hboot version?
For example, the ROM you're using is an Ice Cream Sandwich ROM and you're running a seriously new version of hboot (1.39 is newest iirc), this is most probably creating issues. I know my hboot (1.12) for example wont let me run 4.2.x ROMs, but 4.1.x is fine as I'm running SlimBean 3.1.
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, I'M STILL LEARNING! I'm still trying to get my head around hboot (having owned a HOX for 3 months), like knowing what changes were made or features added/removed in each hboot version...
ONLY IF you continue having problems AND no more with more experience comes to your aid (which they will btw ), flash TripNDroid's ROM here as it has unified hboot support, but isn't the most stable ROM on the face of the planet.
Just a slightly educated guess, sorry I can't be of more help.
Go with vin4yak's answer lol.

His HBOOT is 1.39... (from 1st post)
Yes, some ICS roms don't work well with upgraded firmwares/hboots... But I haven't faced any problem running ICS rom with Hboot 1.39 and 3.17xxx firmware... (Had tried ARHD)...
If it's a ROM specific issue, then he might need to try another JB Rom..

Also thanks for the reply,
I installed the " CM10 [JB v4.1.2] - v029 " Rom you mentioned, the phone boots perfectly but again the touch screen gives no sign of live....

If phone is off - power it on and wait for Android to fully load.
Wait for screen to turn off, then press power button to wake the screen.
You wont be able to unlock it but are the lights for the back-lighting of the hard keys at the bottom of the handset coming on? (It's just that they don't look like they are in your video)
If they're not coming on it could be a hardware problem... but I'd like someone to confirm that there aren't or are any partitions (inaccessible ones due to S-ON, or the ones that can be modified after bootloader unlock) that holds drivers for the touchscreen?

Yes indeed there are enlightened. I really can't believe that a touchscreen can get damaged from flashing..
It must have something to do with the drivers, but my knowledge is unfortunately a little too weak to make it out for myself.
Meanwhile i'm trying various things.. yet without succes

Likewise, my knowledge is also too weak to know if the touchscreen drivers (if there are even touchscreen drivers! Whichever partition they reside in) are exposed to damage.
My last guess if you have a faulty digitizer.
Unfortunately bud this is the limit of my help

Do the following command in fastboot
fastboot getvar version-main
fastboot getvar cid
And post the result here... May be going back to stock will work for you?

Lets start from the beginning
Lets get you back to full stock.
Boot your phone in fastboot
Give me the output of - fastboot getvar version-main

I read the thread ! Strange issues here..... You are at a practical dead point so i guess you guys don't mind trying a new recovery......it even works with the latest 3.20 base including touch
http://db.tt/oGDkMlwc
Maybe it helps somewhere
And another idea i have is to get the right firmware and relock the bootloader, flash the firmware in ruu mode and unlock it again. So the whole update process will be clean from the start

Try the method of Mr Hofs first.

I think i might have some good news, i flashed the recoverymode you mentioned in a previous reaction. And there it is possible to navigate with the touchscreen, so i must be software related!
Now i'm going to use your Nandroid Back up, hopefully it works.

The touchdriver is updated for the bases :
3.16
3.17
3.18
3.19
3.20
Twrp had a recovery that worked with touch on those bases but the ums was broken. Now Phil has one that works with touch and ums ! Good man .......
On the latest bases its recommended to use cwm #6 series (non touch) and this one because its fully working. When you mount the sdcard it might take a while to pop up (up to a minute) but its working at least !

Oke the conclusion so far..
i tried flashing the following recovery mods :
- Philz touch recovery.img
- recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.2.7-endeavoru.img
- recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img
- recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
- CWM-6030-advwipe-jb422-nontouch-recovery-endeavoru-v1.1.img
Only with "Philz touch recovery.img" i was able to navigatie true the menu's with the touchscreen, so i has to be software related.
I tried to instal the Rom "LeeDrOiD_One_Xtreme_V6.4.0.zip" when i was installing it i could problem-free use the touchscreen to navigate true to the setup. Once it was installed the phone rebooted using the freshly installed Rom. Unfortunately once it was on the home screen, the touch stopt responding again..
i tried these Rom's :
- LeeDrOiD_One_Xtreme_V6.4.0.zip
- cm10_endeavoru-ota-eng.noeri-029.zip
- jellybam-v7.2.1_endeavoru-STABLE.zip
- Android_Revolution_HD-One_X_21.0.zip
- ...
Non of them worked with touch
Then i tried to restore using a NanDroid back up from Mr Hofs, nothing happend..
To be honest, i have no idea what to do next..
Someone else does?
Thanks for your times guys.

How did you restore my nandroid backup ? Flashed the boot.img from the nandroid backup, made a full wipe and restored it ?

Mr Hofs, you can not believe how grateful I am to you.
I searched 2 longs days after a solution, and finally it works again. MANY MANY MANY thanks !
I forget to flash the boot.img
Guess i'll leave it like it is now.
Maybe one last question, do you have any idea what caused this problem?
Because i'm quite sure i will likely flash it again to a Clean Android look, and i rather do it correct
Many thanks for your time and advice !

A rom has always to be flashed in the same way as a nandroid backup.
Flash the boot.img, make a full wipe and install the rom.
The older roms won't work indeed because of the updated touchdrivers. Afaik only 3.14 and up roms are fully working.
So if you want to flash a new rom make sure its a JB rom based on 3.14 or higher

1. Did you flash the boot.img? Instructions below.
- Extract boot.img from zip file
- Flash the boot.img manually via "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
2. Suggest you start off with ICS rom.
Recommend ARHD 9.7.2, which is a very stable and bug free ROM for me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562603
Download the version : Android Revolution HD 9.7.2 Ice Cream Sandwich
Remember to flash the boot.img, do a super wipe, install ROM, clear cache & Dalvik cache.
Usually I use the stock rom option to avoid bugs associated with tweaks integration.
I can only guess you've done something wrong or missed a step. Try again from scratch, redownload the boot.img, etc.
Drop into fastboot and do:
fastboot getvar version-main
That will tell you which RUU or ROM backup you need to return to stock.

check if your hboot is compatible with boot.img with CM10 rom! If it is not compatible with your hboot it will not start. You will be stuck in htc logg.
reason that it does not start.
First. Wrong boot img for your custom rom or hboot version
2nd Not compatible with your hboot
3rd unformatted delvik cache
4th too old or too new hboot for the custom rom you chose.
Some developers write the hboot version you need for operating system to work.
It's not just root and flashing roms.
it's also what hboot version that works with the custom rom or the boot.img for the custom rom
i recommand that you go to this site and read carefully and how to check your Hboot and CID.
Check your CID for compatibility for updateing hboot for newer roms later on IF you want update hboot:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32760072&postcount=29305
If you do this, there no returning back to your older hboot and maybe not supported older custom roms with jellybean ICS roms.
Check out zedomax "Max Lee" @ www.onexroot.com ! He has many guides of rooting, installing roms and testing roms.
Good luck

In CWM, go to mounts and storage, and mount SD card as USB.
You need CWM 5.8.4.0, earlier versions don't work.

[Q] Boot loop after stock recovery TWRP

Hi All,
Been having issues with my HTC One X for the past week now and haven't been able to solve it via google or searching this forum, so was hoping one of you kind people can assist a bit.
I do apologise if this issue has already been posted and I missed it, if you can link me I'll be eternally grateful.
Basically, had a few issues annoying me with my HTC so wanted to stick a custom ROM on it. Did some searching about, eventually got a plan together to unlock and root it. All went fine, unlocked it (S-On still) got TWRP recovery on it (Chose this as the ROM I was looking at claimed to be not compatible with CWR) and was booted back into my stock droid.
First thing I did after a successful boot was to go back into recovery and make a full backup (I may have not ticked the Cache and _android.secure)
Played about with the phone again a bit, getting some of the apps back on as it had been wiped, then made a second backup (This one I know I ticked all the boxes for)
Next I tried putting CleanROM on, but could get past the white HTC screen boot loop, after various reflashing the Boot.IMG and clearing cache, so fired up TWRP and restored back to my second backup. All back to normal.
Used the phone as normal for a day or so then I tried flashing another ROM (ViperX) same thing as CleanROM (White HTC screen boot loop) and then went on to try Team Baked's ROM. Managed to get this working successfully, however the ROM was not to my liking and decided to go back to my stock backup. Here's where the issue started.
Now, when restoring the backup the phone boots as far as displaying my background and the status bar at the top, however I cannot pull the status bar down and the ring to unlock the phone with doesn't appear. It sits here for a few second and then reboots. Boot loop.
I've tried clearing cache, restoring various different ways and restoring the boot.img (though I'm not sure I have the right one) but nothing works.
The last variation I tried for restoring involved:
1. Clearing the phone via TWRP (System Restore/Clear Cache/Clear Davik/Clear System/Clear SD Card (heard this can cause issues)/Clearing Android.Secure in that order)
2. Reboot into recovery
3. Repeat step 1 (in case of locked files)
4. Reboot into Recovery
5. full restore (With MD5 check enable)
6. Clear Cache and Dalvik (Tried with just cache, also done Fastboot clear cache in another attempt)
7. Attempt to boot into OS.
As I mentioned earlier, I'm not sure if I have the right boot.IMG for my phone Model/kernal/other, to be honest I'm not entirely sure of the requirements. The details of my phone I've collected so far are:
Getvar version-main (Not sure if this is kernal or what) = 2.17.771.3
hBoot = 1.12.0000
radio = 2.1204.135.20H
CID = H3G_001
Basically, as far as I can tell from the masses of reading I've been doing, I won't be able to update to custom JB for a while so want to get back to my stock ICS and then OTA to JB when my carrier releases their version, then maybe sometime in the future when the ROM specific to my phone has been cracked consider switching to a custom.
on a final note, I've tried flashing both my backups, same result. I've also tried restoring the stock recovery and doing a system recovery with that. It appears to go through the motions (phone with green arrows? Also had the red exclamation mark, but only once of the 3 attempts) then reboots and it's still the same issue.
Thanks for reading through, any advice would be much appreciated. Used to love my phone but now can barely stand to look at it.
Cheers,
Sean
Ok, so I've now downloaded a different boot.img which should be for stock ics and after flashing that, then flashing stock recovery and doing a system restore via bootloader I will 50% of the time get the lock screen and when I unlock it I see the white HTC screen of the initial setup, then it sticks there a while and reboots. It also reboots after left at the lock screen.
To me this seems like it's doing a check or looking for a certain piece of software/file that's missing but is required to finish the start-up process. Anyone any ideas?
Even if someone can point me in the right direction for an RRU for my phone as football's RRU's seem to be the only one that has the one I need but as of 5 days before all this happened the site they're hosted on doesn't allow 500+MB downloads for free members
Cheers,
Sean
**EDIT** Just done a full device wipe then restored only the SYSTEM partition and manually flashed the boot, then when I restarted it sat on the white HTC on the device setup but eventually loaded up, allowed me to complete the device setup and then loaded into the OS. All seemed fine aside from the phone being stuck in turning off airplane mode. Rebooted it to see if that would clear it up and now I'm back to bootloops before the lock screen appears (I just get my background and status bar)
So you have a nandroid backup ! Then do this
Wipe all in recovery and i mean ALL except the sdcard obvious ! system,data,caches,dalvik cache...
Then boot back into fastboot usb mode and flash the boot.img from the nandroid. Taken with TWRP the boot.img is called something like
Emmc.boot.win (or at least similar to this)
You can flash this file with fastboot command
Fastboot flash boot name of the boot.img (.win in this case)
Then enter the recovery and full wipe if you didn't o that already !
Restore the nandroid and boot it up :thumbup:
Should work
Perfect! Thanks so much man, I never even thought to flash the .wim, thought it had to be .img. Just successfully booted fully back into my old system. Hopefully will stay stable the next hour or so but looking good!
Thanks again,
Sean

Download a 2.17 ics Rom and copy it to the phone (mount the sdcard within the recovery as a usb disk)
Take the boot.img file from that rom and copy it to the tool you used to flash it
Then enter the recovery and wipe EVERYTHING except sdcard ofcourse !!! (Cache,dalvik cache, system and data)
Then install the Rom.zip

No problem mate ! :thumbup:
If you're looking for a Rom, I've got hboot 1.12 as well and tried a few ROMs and only ones I got working were:
Team Baked, based on jellybean though still works with 1.12. No Sense though, and a few things weren't to my liking (to name a couple,backlights on buttons didn't work and multitask button was switched back to menu button like in older devices)
SkyDragon, ics ROM with sense. Only had this a short while but appeared to be an exact stock ROM, everything working the way it should, and with a few added extra improvements.
Good luck

Yes.
Copy the boot.img from the backup to your PC (you can mount SD card as USB from TWRP), flash it:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
And restore backup from TWRP.
Yeah, if you follow Mr hofs 1st post on the 1st page he describes all the steps required to restore. Worked perfectly for me

I hope so, I'm in the same boat as you. From what I've been reading, it should still be possible as long as you put back the stock recovery and relock the bootloader.
This website offers links to download the stock recovery
http://www.androidauthority.com/one-x-revert-stock-recovery-76854/
As for relocking the bootloader, I think the process is to run this command whilst in Fast Boot USB mode
fastboot oem lock
After it's run there should be a purple "RELOCKED" at the top of your bootloader menu.
Remember to flash the recovery BEFORE you relock the bootloader
You do not have to lock the bootloader, just the stock recovery is needed ....
Stock rom (out of the box stock)
Stock boot.img
Stock recovery
Here is the 2.17 based stock recovery for those who needs it

Why don't I ever learn?

I've done it again. I think I need to be stopped! lol
I had a perfectly fine phone running the original orange 4.1.1 software. I decided to root it or something and now I'm stuck on the white intro screen.
I can get into the hboot or whatever it's called by holding down power and vol down, but once in there everything I try just takes me back to the white screen.
Factory reset just takes me back to white screen
Recovery shows me a pic of my phone with a green arrow, then a red warning sign. Sometimes from there I can get into recovery (of sorts), but theres nowhere there for me to restore my backups
Any ideas? Thanks in advance
You should probably reflash CWM

did the fastboot flash recovery thing on the recovery file, it all seemed to work fine (although it only took 1.3 seconds.
I then did a fastboot reboot and it's stuck at the htc page again...

read it all the way through and follow all instructions,its a bit daunting at first.you can either use adb or there are a couple of tools on the dev page..
Hmm. I've been out for a few hours, left it on charge as when I tried the RUU it said I didn't have enough power. Now it wont start up at all....
They're is a thread somewhere that covers this problem,do a search for low battery stuck in recovery.

If you have enough power to flash this recovery

The phone charges if you leave it in this recovery
Or check this thread

Excellent, it looks like I can now charge my phone. Hopefully once it's charged a while I can flash on a new RUU
HI all, I'm hoping I'm on the end stretch now lol..
I have a fully charged phone, but tried to install the RUU but it wasn't having any of it, saying that it was the incorrect version. I have the latest that was on the page (was about a month old) it's saying my image version is 3.16.61.6 and it wants to change it to 1.28.061.9, but then it can't
Any ideas? Cheers
Do these fastboot commands
Fastboot oem readcid
Fastboot getvar version-main
Post them here please
readcid - orang001
version main - 3.16.61.6
Thanks
Yes you need a ruu or a nandroid backup that starts with 3.16 with and orange cid ! You tried to downgrade he hboot with an older ruu and that is impossible due to not having S-OFF ......
I found this on another page, will that work do you think?

Hi Matt,
Here's the Orange UK Jellybean nandroid. Users will need the stock 3.16 recovery to complete the install

Sorry didn't see that one !!!! Its not in the OP yet ..... Yes use that one !!! That's exactly what you need !!!
Edit : I only checked the OP, but Matt is on holiday so the OP is not updated :thumbup:
Great stuff, do I still need to do all wiping and flashing of boot?
Cheers for this, you've been a great help
Yes do a full wipe and flash the boot.img from the nandroid with fastboot ! You got lucky mate
Lets hope so
Finally downloaded the ruu, don't want to do it wrong. What commands do I need to type?
Cheers
Its not a ruu .... its a nandroid backup and its probably a .rar file ... Unpack it and put it on the phones sd card looking like this
Sdcard\clockworkmod\backup\time and date folder\backup files
Copy the boot.img from those backup files to the fastboot folder
Flash it in fastboot usb mode
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Enter the custom recovery and do a full wipe/factory reset and restore the nandroid backup from the menu backup & restore
Boot it up to see if its running !
Ah, see there's mu issue, the phone's still not getting past the HTC logo at the beginning. I can't get the backup on my phone can I?

[Q] My HOX always not respond

Dear all, recently i found my HOX always not response on touch screen, but it works on all button (eg power, volume button). When there is a call coming, it rang but cut the line off.:crying:.
I need to perform several restart and only it backs to normal. I do try flash new rom, format SD card and reset factory setting. None of it help, the issues might come back few days later.:silly:
I really not sure what is the root cause it is. If I send back to repair centre and the problem not appear during that time, they won't do anything i guess.. Could you please help to advise or any of you guys here experience the same issue before? Thanks in advance:good:
Tell us,
Are you on Stock Rom? If yes, then I don't know how to help you, but I'm sure Mr. Hofs will
If No,
1. What ROM are you on?
2. What kernel are you on?
3. Do you have sweep2wake enabled?
4. Have you installed any mods?
5. What is the version of your hboot?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
1. What ROM are you on?
InsertCoin One X Ver 17
2. What kernel are you on?
[email protected]#1 (the one come with ROM)
3. Do you have sweep2wake enabled?
sweep2unlock = Yes
4. Have you installed any mods?
ya, Dougi's Custom LOCKS V.5.2-IC
5. What is the version of your hboot?
1.36.0000
Hope this details help.. thanks
Yep......send it in for warranty repair. If it is happening on different custom roms, and on the original stock rom too then there is nothing we can do. You did all there is to it already.
Mr Hofs, I had not try ori stock ROM yet as I lost my backup when updated to custom ROM.. Haha.. damn!! I see you help a lots of ppl on put back HOX to original stock Rom and maybe I'm might be one of them.
My HOX Version-main: 3.19.401.1 and cid: HTC_044 getting from "CID Getter" Anymore info required for RUU restoration?
I haven't try to restore Original Stock Rom since my backup is gone when I first perform custom ROM. Could you help me on this Mr Hofs for Ruu restoration step?
CID Getter
Version-main: 3.19.401.1
cid: HTC_044
let me know any more info required. Thanks
Get a new 3.14.401 nandroid backup. Don't look at the cids at that point. Not important. Restore the 3.14.401 nandroid and also flash back the 3.14 stock recovery
After that you can update the phone with official ota.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140
A 3.19 ruu is not available ! :thumbup:
I getting 3.14.401.31 CID HTC__001 download and try the following as below: let me know if i miss out some step. Thanks
Copy the nandroid backup to the phone Sdcard, copy the boot.img from inside the backup folder to the fastboot folder on the pc. The folder should look like this
Clockworkmod\backup\*date and time folder*\*backup files*
Flash the boot.img with the phone in fastboot usb mode using these commands
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Then unplug the cable and enter the recovery, do a full wipe there. Wipe all caches and dalvik cache. Under the advanced button you find - format data, format system, format cache (just wipe it al except sdcard) and even do a factory reset
Then press backup & restore and restore the complete backup
Then reboot the phone to see if it works....confuse at this part... if it does or doesn't? i will need to follow the following step?
I have to put the phone back in fastboot usb mode and flash the stock recovery .....this one
Rename this file into RECOVERY.IMG
phone in fastboot usb menu again and use this command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
After this you only have to relock the bootloader with the fastboot command
Fastboot oem lock (ofcourse again with the phone in fastboot usb menu)
Reboot and you have a full stock phone
btw, disable sweep2wake, it works fine for these since yesterday. Will monitor for few more day before back to original stock.. Thanks

[Q] HTC One X rooting has phone dying in the pits of hell

Hello users of this fine forum! :highfive:
I'm having a bit of a problem whilst rooting my HTC One X.
I first read up about unlocking the phone, ADB and recovery mods (using the teamwin one since it seems to be recommended for my device, but can use clockwork too)
I then proceeded to:
unlock my phone using htcdev
do a fast wipe using the teamwin recovery mod
flash a new boot.img in the fastboot section
install the rom called Android Revolution HD 31.3
used a youtube guide called "HTC One X: Android Revolution HD (Sense 4.1 ICS 4.0.4) - How to Install - Cursed4Eva" which seemed to work pretty flawless
and... got stuck on the HTC quietly brilliant screen for the rest of eternity
I've got the HTC One X international (CID is HTC_E11) and thought this would be a breeze. Looks like something went wrong though, and after about 15 hours of trying to repair the problem on my own using multiple threads (had the same problem using viperrom 2.7.0 and the newest version (3.1.4 i think?) ) I thought I'd turn to the experts for help.
So... heroes of the internet, please help a brother on the quest for technological enlightenment out?
Thanks in advance and best regards.
P.S. if you need anything from me (such as logs or such, I'd be happy to provide)
EDIT: it now actually gives me the HTC One animation after the quietly brilliant startup thingy, but gets stuck on that step of the booting process. This happened after I re-fastbooted the boot.img for the 69th time.
EDIT 2: used CWM to install the rom aswell, this also doesn't work.

ဲJust try with Philz_Touch recovery >>>> http://d-h.st/users/philz_touch/?fld_id=16046#files
Install again the rom with full wipe via Philz recovery.
okay, thanks!
does it matter which version i use?
by the way, phone is S-ON. as far as i read, this couldn't be the problem?
Use the latest version (6) and indeed s-on is not a problem.
Also check your hnoot number and flash a sense 5 rom.
Or PM me with future trouble, we can continue in Dutch if you like

Thanks for your help Mr Hofs will send you a PM aswell. Much appreciated.
The rom I'm flashing is sense 5.0, installed the rom with Phil'z Touch, CWM and TWRM, so I think it's safe to say that the recovery mod isn't causing my problem. What I do is install the rom from my internal sd card using a recovery mod, then reboot into fastboot and load the boot.img either via a batch file or via ADB commands in DOS prompt (or CMD. Do people still call it DOS? ). Yet my phone still hangs on the loading screen. I did a wipe before installing my rom using Phil'z touch aswell.
my hboot number.. the text I get when i enter bootloader:
***UNLOCKED***

and then the standard options (fastboot, recovery and so on)
Ah yeah hnoot is too low. You can run the 2.17.401 ruu to get back to stock and then update the phone all the way up to sense 5.
Edit :
The ruu via android file ruu's is broken (only 80mb) that's too small for a ruu. You can also restore the stock rom (nandroid backup)

https://www.dropbox.com/s/mmky63x341z36zg/stock recovery 2.17.img
Unpack the nandroid to the sdcard, flash the recovery.img and boot.img from the nand backup folder. Make a full wipe and restore the nandroid. Then flash back the stock 2.17 recovery i linked and update the phone via official ota. You do not have to relock the bootloader !
