You can flash older roms with newer hboot. Im on Hboot 1.72 and i can still recover my old 4.11 nandroid backup.
I remember seeing somewhere on here yesterday that you have to edit something in the CM Rom zip before you flash it which stops the rom from checking your hboot
Put the kettle on
Remove the line in /META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script that tells it to look for that hboot

I got my One X when they first came out, rooted it straight away and have been very happy. I'm running a JB AOKP ROM.
I've noticed a lot of talk about hboot versions, 1.23/1.28. My hboot is still 0.43. Am I missing anything? Does updating the hboot actually matter?
Thanks for any information

I have almost the same question : I would like to install the "Android Revolution HD 11.1" ROM and spent few days parsing the various post in the corresponding section of the forum.
The installation procedure states that to go to JB we need to have HBOOT v1.23. In addition it is indicated that :
{Do the following only if you have hboot version 0.43.
Download this ROM. You need to flash this RUU after you relock but before you flash firmware. Your hboot version will say 1.12}

Now my question :
My HOX indicates HBOOT v1.12 without any upgrade, do I need to upgrade it or not ?
Thanks in advance for your help

If you have 1.12, there is no need to upgrade to 1.12 before upgrading to 1.28.
To upgrade to 1.28, keep following the instructions.

Thanks Marc199 and BenPope for you help and QUICK answers !!! :good:
Also, make sure you really do want to upgrade to 1.28 because without S-OFF you can't go back to an hboot with a lower version number.

Thanks for the warning. BTW, how do you check whether if your are S-ON or S-OFF ?
I have been able to define my HBOOT version and my CID but this info...
Is there any thread summarizing hot to get all details about the HOX ?
Thanks again.
At the top of the bootloader it says either S-OFF or S-ON
why ?

Yes(for both questions) and if anything goes wrong you can EASILY revert with a backup from your custom recovery (and flashing your old boot.img)

So the hboot version only affects sense roms?
ifsow what does hboot represend ?
because i dont get why would it be good for sense roms but not for non sense roms on the same device.
they have to update or fix some things in those different version right ?
at the start of last year a fix whas published for the bad battery life.
The fix whas supposed to add 10 to 20 % to battery life.
just now i saw a post from somebody asking how to do this fix and they told him it whas fixed in version 1.28 / 1.29
it whas not clear to me if they where refering to hboot version but i think they did.
i'm pretty confused about this, could you help me clarrify a bit ?
Hi Guys!
I had CM10 on my One X. Something like 1 month ago I updated my ROM through OTA updates, after that I had some casual reboots, but not so annoying...
2 days ago, I updated once again and after that, my phone was very very very instable!! Everytimes I tryed to open an app, it rebooted; so I wasn't able to do a backup through Titanium Backup, neither.
So i decided to try with the Australia MIUI one, and it didn't start...
I tryed Renovated, same end.
I tryed the stock one...it works...
I tryed Orio7...no success...what can i try?? (ofc i flashed the right boot.img each time before install rom...also i tryed to flash it after as well...)
Thanks
Try insert coin or ice cold jelly ( AOKP based) and flash the correct boot.img!

Reboot to the bootloader by holding volume down and the power button. It will say which hboot you have on there. Also, like enigmaticxeal said, make sure you flash the correct boot.img each time you flash a different rom.
yes,cm10 is based on jb,but doesn't need jb hboot
restart your phone and hold power+vol down for seconds and you will enter fastboot,there you can find your hboot version
I updated to stock jb Rom via ota as well and can no longet install any cm Rom. Flashed the correct boot and even tried with the modded boot for jb hboot and even tried repacking the modded one with the stock cm boot. Nothing I do is getting cm on there I'm on hboot 1.36.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
so I think i have 0.43 possible???
that is why you cant install JB sense roms.
JB sense roms needs hboot 1.31 or higher.
You need to update your hboot depending upon your cid.. Then you will be able to flash any sense roms you want.
Do a lil search regarding the hboot and cid, You will get the idea.
yep yep...That sounds like I didn't search, but the truth is that I watched for my CID and phone said "HTC_405"...I though that means I got 1.39, but most probably that was a list of devices COMPATIBLE FOR UPGRADE TO 1.39...
sorry guys I think I can go ahead alone keep this 3ad open if I ll fall in a mistake
I tryed to update Hboot...but im stuck here: FAILED (remote: 44 hboot version check fail)

Try using this tool. It will do everything for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1924003
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Your cid has nothing to do with the hboot, main software and hboots are related. Cid is more a region code .....
For example if your phone is on ics 4.04 2.17 based software your hboot should be 1.12
and the the 4.0.3 software corresponds with hboots 0.95 and/or 0.96
Hope this clears it up.
Basically you can not determine on which hboot the phone is with the cid number

Do a nandroid backup from recovery, then:
fastboot oem lock
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip recovery.zip
That should be enough, combined with a search, for you to figure it out.

Hello, my problem is that I updated my phone's Hboot, but my phone is S-ON and I updated it but it needed S-OFF. Now when I Turn it on it gets stuck on the Boot. Please help me! Thanks alot :laugh:
Well since you updated your hboot have you flashed a Sense JB ROM? Because there would be absolutely no point in upgrading hboot if you're not going to be using a Sense JB ROM.
Don't worry about the S-OFF stuff, you don't need it.

sounds like you are stuck in boot loop,fast boot erase cache should work if the nand back up will not flash ( restore )

If the hboot didn't stick its relatively easy..take everything back to stock..or just update recovery again

Hello guys already running 4.2.2 with Hboot 1.36 I see o2 have now released this update. Is the Hboot changed to 1.72?? and if so is they any change worth updating from 1.36 to 1.72??
thanks
Anyone?
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes the hboot is changed to 1.72. I couldt install the OTA wia the recovery it gave me Red triangle during the process so I manually updated the hboot. I advise you not to do that if you want to make ypur phone full stock because after upgrading the hboot to 1.72, lower firmwares like 3.14.206.X > wouldt work, to be more precise the touch would`t work on them. So as for me I`m waiting for some one to make a backup of 4.18.206.X or to find the RUU.
Anyway I have the OTA but dont know how to upload it.
Hope this helped you a bit.

Btw root acces does not interfere with an ota update. You loose it after the update.
Hi, I've decided to go for the stock ROM due to a lot of problems i'm having with my HOX.
I already have Stock Boot.img, Recovery.img, but I am missing the Hboot.
According to the RUU Software my Hboot (Which I upgraded a year ago to 1.39) I need an older Hboot in order to run the RUU.
I've searched for a lot of sites and forums and don't seem to find a Hboot 0.96 (Stock) anywhere.
I'd appreciate if some has or knows where can I get it,
Thank you in advance!

you can't downgread your hboot unless you are S-OFF. Restore nandroid backup with your main version numbers or flash custom sense 5 rom close to stock like MaximusHD, ARHD or rom in my signature

I've the same problem. I'm on HBoot 1.72 and I want get back to SlimBean 4.2.2 because with that ROM my HOX runs best. If I try to install SlimBean Build 8 I get the message that only HBoot <= 1.39 is supported. Is there any way to get back on Slim 4.2.2?
I've solved my problem without downgrading HBoot or something like this. You can simply edit the updater-script from the ROM and add HBoot 1.72 as possible solution. Now I'm running Slim 4.2.2 on HBoot 1.72 without any problems.
