i have hboot 1.39.0000
and radio 5.1204.162.29
Then dont bother to much on updates. A custom rom will give you so much more than a stock ! You dont need to upgrade anyway ..... all roms work on your phone !

Software version is 3.14.206.27
Download the 2.17.206 nandroid from the nandroid backup collection in the general thread. Restore it with Its boot.img and after that flash back the stock recovery
http://db.tt/U5CK4noo
Then you can update officially again !
I prefer this method because you dont have to relock and unlock the bootloader, this way you can keep it unlocked. Less chances of problems !!!
And if you are already on a JB hboot this method with a lower version nandroid works ..... The software and hboot is getting fooled
The software gets updated while the hboot stays at for example 1.39

have you got one for o2_001 with hboot 1.72 ?
The details of my phone shown in fastboot is as shown below:
ENDEAVORU XE SHIP S-OFF RL
CID-11111111
HBOOT-0.96.0000

The software number is 1.29.415.11
From this details the mobile is S-OFF and has supercid. Am i right?(Sorry newbie)
I have already unlocked its bootloader and rooted it. But can i update it to jelly bean using any RUU?(as it is S-OFF)(Without using any custom roms)
From this thread-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189048 i see that my phone is HTC Arabic with no JB updates.. ..
Can i update it using another countries' RUU? Will it be any problem?.. please help!!
Yes you can !

Thanks a lot Mr Hofs.. .. That means i can use any RUU. But i can only see JB in asia and european RUU. There is no JB update in India. So do I need to update anything? I mean hboot or anything else before flashing RUU or will the RUU do it on its own?
I can see different software numbers of each countries' RUU.Will it be any problem?
And will the change in the radio from 1.1204.105.14 to 5.xxxxx be any problem with carriers? I am residing in India.
Thanks a lot in advance!!..
From what i have seen its no problem, you may have language problems because your native language might not be implemented. But if you have an Indian ruu you can always return to that. You are fully capable of downgrading and upgrading the hboot.
So if you install a 3.14 ruu you can also return to a 1.29 ruu
Edit : in this thread you can find all sorts of ruu's. Also the 2.17.415

Wow!! thts grt!.. ..Actually the phone has Arabic RUU with middle eastern english. I think I will flash this-RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.14.707.24_Ra dio_5.1204.162.29_release_296434_signed.exe
It has world wide english. Mr Hofs last question can i directly use the above RUU or do i have to go step wise? My phone is currently running android 4.03 with this RUU-
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_ARA_1.29.415.11_Radio_1. 1204.105.14_release_260742_signed.exe
Since its s-off you should be able to install it directly, im not sure if you need to relock the bootloader for s-off devices to correctly install the ruu.
At least the command to relock it is :
Fastboot oem lock
After all that you can unlock again and use a custom rom or stay on stock, whatever you choose

Thanks a lot!! I will try the Asian RUU..In case of any problem will a nandroid backup from CWM do the trick?
And according to you which is the best JB custom rom?
Edit: Do i need to upgrade the firmware manually for JB or will the RUU do it on its own?

Yes. Nandroid backup is always recommended... But since you have a s-off device, you can run any ruu out here (upgrade + downgrade) So returning to a working os shouldn't be a problem for you
Why don't you try a few roms from the development section and settle on the one which suits you the best?! all roms are good! It's the end user who has to decide which he likes ... + rom comparison isn't allowed in xda...

Hey Arnab,
I just happened to stumble across your post. I have a similar device (Endeavor XE S-OFF with hboot 1.12) and I have been trying to get a custom 4.4 rom update on this. But have been unsuccessful so far (here's the link to my problem description and what all I have tried).
I see that your post is fairly old and I'm assuming that you were able to upgrade your HOX to JB and further. Can you pls share your experience and any tips ?
thanks,
Kunal

Hi Thant,
You mean I should flash a JB firmware or ICS ? Which one exactly ?
The problem for me is identifying which one to use (considering I'm super-cid and as mentioned by you, thankfully, that I have a test device). I have already tried a few RUUs and no success.
I just don't want to brick it. Hope you understand.
thanks,

Are you on custom rom are the bootloader unlocked if you are on custom rom restore nandroid backup from HERE and update to latest JB. Give more information if you are stock and in software update you don't see update you can't update to 4.2.2 officialy but with custom rom yes you can.

You can.t change your CID if you are not S-OFF. And for the next question NO S-OFF for HOX to this moment or I think in UK have some shops where they do S-OFF but you must to google it for this.
how can i install this rom

and my hboot 1.12.0000
and my cid htc_621
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

Hi
I have an International One x running hboot 1.31, version-main: 3.14.401.619. CID is HTC__J15, S_ON I used the tool JBFWTOOL21 a couple of years ago to get to that point.
I now want to update hboot to 1.39 (or later) so i can flash more recent ROMs, but cant seem to do so. All RUU's i have tried fail because the ver is 3.14.401.619. Also JBFWTOOL21 only will flash 1.31 due to my CID.
Please any methods our there
Thanks
Problem solved, thanks. Hboot now updated and HTC One X running lollipop 5.0
