[How to] Boot ALL Jellybean sense roms on cid unsupported devices

General Information
Since everything here is on fire because of the sense jellybean leaked firmware and many are crying that they do not have the appropriate CID to flash the new firmware, and some also replied to my post they are not able to boot with that UNOFFICAL and BETA METHOD i decided to write this short guide.
At first, i do not think that the rom flashed with this method is working as a daily for you, more a preview for when the devs found a way to bring the update also to carrier branded phones.
Things that are reported to work with trips 3.4.11 kernel but not with his 3.1.10 kernel are:
- Usb storage ( )
Things that will not work are:
- Sound
- Youtube App
- Wifi Dropouts, not for me but another person mentioned it
This method does not update your hboot. So you´re safe to go back. And one more time, this is just meant as a preview for now, so dont expect the full jellybean experience. be lucky that we have trip and can at least boot this
So here will be the general instructions for all jellybean sense roms.
1. Download your favourite jellybean sense rom and put it on your sdcard
A few of them:
ARHD: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562603 (not available for now)
IC: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1588669
Maximus: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601543
Ordroid: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1836919
2. Download trips kernel from here: http://tripndroid.bindroidroms.com/TripNDroid_RVISED_3.4.11-002.zip put one copy on your phones sdcard and one on your pc
3. Repack trips boot.img found in the previously downloaded .zip with the ramdisk from the kernel which is included in your rom that you downloaded in the first step using this nice little tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1815607
Put the repacked boot.img in your fastboot folder
4. Boot your phone into fastboot mode and flash the repacked boot.img you downloaded using following commands
------> fastboot flash boot boot.img
------> fastboot erase cache
5. after this boot into custom recovery and perform a full wipe (including system, data, cache, dalvik)
6. flash your rom (just in case: tick none of the options in aroma)
7. flash modules from trips kernel which you placed in step 2 on your sdcard
8. boot into your jellybean preview.
Credits to shnizlon for the rom, to TripNRaVeR for his 3.1.10 kernel that offers this possibility , finally to chrisoverson for online repacker

Hi a few people have confirmed that it works, but there are some bugs as stated in the op, so you can give it a try to see what all the fuss is about and so that you don't have to feel totally left out, but currently it can't really be used as a daily driver

Already try it one the day 2.0.0 out.. but the most i hate is no in call sound.
about sd bug, I think it is because of vold.fstab, as the sd mount is different as ICS, that why it not detected in JB.

I tried this last night, and YES it does work.
However it's pretty unusable and i ended up flashing back to viperX. Still it was nice to sample Jelly Bean.
I'm on T-MOB005 UK

Every JB sense rom boot using trip kernel, just repack it and flash.. Already try all JB ROM, but no fun for me, as it is too buggy for unsupported CID.
@OP : Why don't you change the thread to "how to flash Sense JB on unsupported CID device" as it could boot all JB Sense ROM.

i did it exactly as i described in the op yesterday in the evening and there were the bugs i explained above
your hboot is not upgraded while youre doing this procedure so you can easily flash back
and i also mentioned it´s most likely only for preview!

I try it my cid is t-mob101 and it work Sense jelly bean is nice but i have the Radio Bug..it works only if the screen is on...when it is locked and i turn it on i have Signal Bars but in lockscreen it shows no signal...it is Bad...but the hole rom is nice ..i hope someone fix the bugs

it could but the boot.img i provided is only for ordroid. i don´t think it will boot with insertcoin or arhd as they made custom ramdisk modifications. But you´re right, basically if you repack trips kernel with the jb sense roms kernel ramdisk it will boot i think
I will update the thread in the evening i´m busy now because i have to break up my grandmother´s garden that sounds funny and i hope it´s correct

why you need RUU or stock recovery? This is the same way to flash custom rom with our own choice kernel.

[Q] Can we Root: HTC One X with OTA -Stock Jelly Bean

Hey Guys,
As you can see the name of the title, I have a HOX and I relocked the Bootloader and ran the Stock RUU and after doing that did a complete OTA update from ICS to Jellybean.
NOW... All i want is to root my phone again so that i can use Apps like CoreControl, Addfree etc.
Please tell me if I can root my phone again and how?

well, i don't think there is a stock JB root, you can unlock the bootloader then flash recovery and then flash a custom rom ... remember to do a nandroid backup before doing this

Thanks bro. I was looking for this answer on google and no had seem to do this... Full OTA and then root.
I think I would wait until someone makes a root method for Stock JB (OTA) on HTC One X

It's exactly the same process as with ICS. What's the problem?

Yes and please do not forget to backup the original JB rom before you root and put a custom rom .... so you can go back to stock at any time, there is no RUU available yet to get it back to stock at the moment.
Edit : sorry i just saw that matt also gave the hint to back it up

Nandroid is ur best friend when coming to installing any ROM. Don't forget it. It'll save a lot of time if any problem is encountered.

To be honest if you look here in the Q&A part of the forum you will see at least 8 posts with exactly the same question !
The art of reading is not to ask....

Well said!! This was just to find relevant reading material. If u could share few relevant links for htc__621.
Thanks
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

How to find a ruu is for every cid number the same process ! And this process has been covered millions of times in the Q&A.there are also clear guides in the dev thread under stickies. It should be mandatory to read them before continuing.
Don't know what else to say about it !

There is an app on the Play store called Boot manager which allows you to switch between Roms straight from the app. I have it on my Evo 3D and successfully installed 4 different Roms. I'm not sure if it work on our HOX but i thought i'd let you know anyway

No this will not work, you have to flash the boot.img manually with fastboot commands from the pc ! Because we (one x owners) do not have S-OFF . if we had s-off it would be possible. So the thought is good .....

Any problem with root and using custom roms

Hi all
I am new to root and roms related part
So i want to know it from all of u ( u all experts) that is there any kind of problem (either related to brick or bad perfomance or damage or degradation to the internal ic) with rooting or using custom roms...???
If there any , plz point it out and help me
And is it possible to come back to my orignal stock with all the things as it is as it was before the root?
Thnx in advance , plz help
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

Yes you cam go back to stock, and no i have never experienced bad things with rooting and running customs roms. But you have to read the tutorials first to learn about what you need to know and need to do ! Don't go messing about with little to no knowledge !
Read up on fastboot and the commands how to flash recoverys and boot.img files.
These are the steps to follow
Unlock the bootloader at htcdev site
Flash a custom recovery
Make a NANDROID BACKUP of the stock rom
Flash the boot.img from the new rom
Perform a FULL wipe in the recovery
Install the new rom
And safe the stock rom nandroid backup somewhere safe (pc, cloud storage)

Thnx man...!!!
U helped me a lot with rooting , thnx again
One of my frnd said that he had solved a prob of bricked samsung phone with some kind of tiny device...dont know what...bt he was saying that he had done it
Is this possible for htc one x?
And finally one formal question..
Is there any prob if i get stuck and ask u for help?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

No its no problem ! And bricking the hox is almost impossible because we have S-ON devices .... Just check that the battery is full before you start

What is the meaning of S-ON device
I frequently came to know that u guys use S-ON & S-OFF device...what does that mean??
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

S-off is a security parameter, if you have s-off you do not need to flash stuff with fastboot commands. Then you would be able to flash a complete rom including the kernel from the recovery. So no need for a pc !
But s-on is not so bad everyone thinks it is, because now bricking the phone is pretty much impossible

Wooooo...!!!
That means if i dont know exectly how to root ur htc one x then also there is no chance to brick ur device...am i right?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

Note that there is always a chance of getting it bricked ! But the chances are minimal to 0 if you follow the right path

Awsome bro...
Can u suggest the right way which u thinks the best for rooting and installing new rom and meanwhile keeping backup of stock rom for further use if needed to switch back to orignal one...??
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

Well the main steps are in my first post of this thread ...
You need to learn about fastboot and the needed commands,here is more info

Want to install ARHD ROM
Hello Mr. Hofs, I am new in XDA site also dont know anything about the installation process. i searched a lot but too much confused. i just want to install a Jelly Bean ARHD custom rom for my HOX. now i am using ICS 4.0.3 and Sense 4.0. still didnt get any update. my bootloader also unlocked. i purchased it second hand so its may be used custom rom. i dont know which custom rom used on my HOX. my HOX CID number is VODAP001. please suggest me how to install ARHD 18.1 version custom rom. please give me full solution of this in easy way. thanks.

Boot the phone and check under settings menu if it says something about the custom rom.
But you need to install HTC drivers and you need the fastboot files. You have to open a command prompt inside the folder on the pc and type there 1 command, and the phone has to be in the bootloader menu. You should see in the bootloader in red text "fastboot usb"
Fastboot getvar version-main
A number should come out and we need that

(Q) SuperCid

Hello everyone about couple of days I was having issues with my boths cameras on the device I took it to the store I bought it from and they fixed it and also update my device software version after that I noticed that now im S-OFF no S-ON that I was before and my cid also changed from HTC_044 (Asia) to CID-11111111 (supercid I think) and my hboot also changed from 1.36 to 1.39 I also noticed I get faster updates than the cid HTC_044 im know on 3.20.401.1 what does it mean ? that I get every update from every cid or faster updates ? or something else ?
thanks in advance

he can't... once you flash the RUU your phone becomes normal as pretty much every One on this forum... you'll only be able to go back to superCID only if we discover a way to S-OFF

Maybe you can find some more useful info here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2222115

but Im S-OFF so I will lose the supercid if I flash RUU ?
and I read that I dont have too unlock bootloader if I S-OFF is that true ?

Yes you need to unlock the bootloader before you can flash !
Edit :
You won't loose s-off by unlocking the bootloader. The possibility is there when you install a ruu.....

so how exactly S-OFF help me here ? XD
thatp pretty weird before i take my HOX to fix it was on Relock cause I opened the bootloader then relock to use waranty and now it says LOCKED no RELOCKED how is this possible ?
and how the technican made my device S-OFF and SUEPRCID 1111111 ?

That's something i don't know exactly, they probably have HTC certified methods of unlocking and relocking to fix certain locked partitions of the phone.

ok so if I want to flash rom I dont need to flash the kernel (boot.img) because I S-OFF Right ?
and if I want to go back to stock I can't flash RUU file because it will change my Super Cid to regular Cid ?

Lets assume that to be safe. Always do it via a firmware flash or a stock nandroid backup. Just to be safe.
And yes you don't need to flash the boot.img manually. But as additional info :
A lot of devs have taken out the script that flashes the boot.img when installing the rom. So with a lot of roms you still have to flash the boot.img with fastboot commands.

and one more question super cid devices (non rooted or bootloader unlocked) get OTA updates faster then other cids ?
and if I go back to stock via RUU it wont change my device to S-ON right ? and there's anyway to bring the Super cid back ?
