Hello
How can i do a Hboot Upgrade? I have Hboot version 1.39 and I want to have Hboot 1.72. Is a Hboot update dangerous to brick anything? What must I do to brick nothing?

Don't update ....all roms run on 1.39 and there is no way back to 1.39. Wait as long as you can with a bootloader update is my advice

i have 1.36 and i want to go to 1,39, better?
mwah a bit, but i still don't see the advantage. really mate take my word for it......don't upgrade it now.
I've already upgade my hboot from 1.36 to 1.72, not all rom can run with this hboot... Now i cant downgrade back to 1.36, Ive try it once... My advice, same as Mr Hofs, dont update..

Installation aborts right.....that's because of the missing bootloader line with your hboot number in the updater script file of the aroma installer.
All recent roms work on your hboot mate

yep, same here. I actually added that line in mike's ARHD to make it work. mine came with 1.72, so naturally, I have to do this.

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.

But I do need to upgrade to 1.28, right ?
Yes you do. But first check if you have the right CID.

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 ?
Hi,
Wat is the benefit of upgrading to a higher hboot ?

Yes, it's a No-Sense rom.. So i don't need to update the HBoot? And i just can flash the rom and the boot.img?

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)
ok

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!

I thought that, but Im on 1.39...and CM10 is based on JB :silly:
at least...I don't remind how I done, but I remind that Im on 1.39...how can I check?

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

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.

Please, can you tell me anyone, why I have still hboot 1.39 after 4.2.2 update on my HOX CID HTC__032? I thought that there will be update hboot to 1.72.
Sorry for stupid question, but I am a little confuse.
Thanks in advance.

This topic contains some information to upgrade your Hboot. It is a separate process from flashing a rom.
On stock 4.1.2 with stock recovery update via OTA to 4.2.2 and the hboot should update automatically.

Great! Thanks a lot.
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?

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.

Did it all, the nand is niet not good. Think it is missing apps.
Btw root acces does not interfere with an ota update. You loose it after the update.
how can i install this rom

and my hboot 1.12.0000

how can i change it
What do you have actually ? A s-off device with hboot 1.73 or that ^^
You need at least a hboot 1.36/1.39 for that rom....things about ruu's are already described in your precious threads.
So get the hboot up, flash a custom recovery and install the rom, how to is described everywhere around in tuts and stickies.....probably even in the OP of the rom thread !
Reading is a gift....use it
