Hello, i just bought an HTC One X phone, it is running android 4.0.4 and sense 4.1 and it says in the info software version 2.17.401.2 , it is also rooted so i can't do OTA update. Now i want to have the latest officiel rom or custom rom ased on the official one, my question is where do i go from here, is it possible to go back to stock and do official update from there, or what do i have to do to, i don't mind using a custom made rom if it is a stable one.
EDIT: Some more info, the device says unlocked when i boot in recovery, i have standard recovery i think (white screen with 3 droids bottom)
HBOOT-0.96-0000
i can choose fastboot or recovery, simlock ...etc
Thanks for the tips guys.
I bet there is a ruu available for you with that low hboot, you ha e to put the phone fastboot mode/bootloader and run a fastboot command from the pc
Fastboot getvar version-main
Post that outcome here please and i can help you getting back to stock the easiest way !

The command says this
version-main: 1.29.707.11
finished. total time: 0.07s.
Oke, start with charging the phone to 100% i will get the links and things you need .....
Edit :
In steps :
Put the phone in fastboot usb mode and relock the bootloader with this command :
Fastboot oem lock
Then keep the phone in the bootloader and execute this ruu with administrator rights
http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo...Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_278245_signed.exe
When the ruu is finished and the phone boots into the OS you go to the settings - about - software update menu and check manually for updates. When they are available you continue to install these updates (there should be multiple updates)
If you don't get updates you can report back here and i can help you further to get updated.

The RUU says asia, is it ok if my phone is from UK?
Then it's imported into the UK, that's probably why they put the 2.17.401 rom on it ! It's the correct ruu.
The phone is originally from Asia !
Ok i did the RUU but now i only have english and asian languages, can i flash a european RUU after this one now ? it's annoying like that for me
EDIT: it does not detect OTA updates, am i even more screwed now ? or is there hope to go back to stock european version ?
You have English ? Whats the difference then ? And no you are not screwed. Relax .... in the end when we are done it will be all fine.
Next step :
Run this ruu too and check then again for updates ......

No problem. After this ruu we can also put a custom rom (like stock) on it that has the French language !
oh well i'll go for it and then put in a custom rom, i am coming from a desire z which i used sooooo many roms on. just got tired of custom roms. i'll report back when done.

It would be just great, i love the phone, great device like always by HTC, well now we have to wait with my slow internet to get all that done.
No problem. I will check here from time to time anyway. No rush.....rushing things ends up in errors
The phonei s finally updated to android 4.2.2 ad sense 5, but now i have a very strange WiFi issue, wifi works for 10-30 seconds then nothing, it says it is connected but i have no network or internet access until i turn it off and on again, what can that be ?
EDIT: After investigatin the forum a little, it seems like a lot of people are having the same issue after the update :s, well i will end up using custom roms i guess lol

Hi Guys
Hope you can help me
So i have a HOX from the swiss carrier "Swisscom" ; branded
CID Getter tells me: VODAP110
Recovery Mode tells me:
HBOOT 0.95.0000
Radio: 1.1204.105.14
fastboot getvar version-main tells me something like
1.29.166.13 (or 14...)
when i relocked i was also getting an error like : error: too many links...
i am currently using ARHD 9.7.1 and wanted to update to JB.
i am seriously a bit confused which nubmer i have to look for
i some threads the speak about the CID, in others about the RADIO.....
what i did;
i relocked my bootloader and tried the following RUU:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_Vodafone_CH-DE_1.26.166.2_Radio_1.1204.90.13_release_251279_signed.exe
which resulted in my HOX to give several errors and not starting again.
i luckily could unlock again and install ARHD 9.7.1 again. What am i doing wrong?
THNAKS A LOT FOR YOUR ADVICE!!
You need the branded voda RUU that starts with 1.29 and not 1.26
We can't downgrade because we don't have S-Off ....yet !
The steps you took where fine, locking the bootloader and running the ruu......it es just the wrong one

thanks, do ypu know where i can get it? as far as i know the OTA for this phone is out by now...
what i dont understand, this stock RUU is just like putting the phone back to the status it was when i bought it right? so then i start it and make the official OTA?
First you have to run the right ruu, after that it's back to stock. After that you are able to receive the JB update (when the provider rolls it out)
You can search for a ruu on htcruu.com or.the file factory !

so this means this RUU is basically the one which was on the phone when it was released? that i very strange, because i can not find it...
nowhere, not on HTCRUU or filefactory..
The possibility exist that they didn't release the ruu !
Maybe you can find one that starts with 2.17 ! Upgrading is possible ....

Well if the ruu has not been released its just not out there .... Plain and simple
If you can find a ruu with exactly the same.numbers but starts with 2.17 instead of 1.29 (which might be released) you can flash the 2.17 ruu.
Because with a ruu we can do upgrades but no downgrades

you think this should work?
Yeah i think it will !
Put the phone in fastboot USB mode and relock the bootloader
Fastboot oem lock
Keep the phone in fastboot USB menu and run the ruu.exe from pc with admin rights !

Cool it worked fine, i have now the branded JB, recieved by OTY, Thanks for the input.
BUT do i have to make a Firmware update now as well if i want ARHD 18.0 ?
the file from here: 3.14.166.27 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376 ?
THX
If you received the JB ota you have already the needed JB hboot, check in the bootloader if it's 1.31 or higher. Then you are ready to run a custom JB rom and no need to update the firmware/hboot
You have to re unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery ! And please do a NANDROID BACKUP right after flashing the custom recovery and copy it to a safe place on the pc ! This way you avoid problems if you want to go back to stock !!!
Hello guys,

Hello Guys, I am new here and I wanted to restore my HOX to its original rom from rooted custom rom(ADHR 2.17). My phone ruu is asia WWE 2.17.401.2 CL89015 release-keys. I have try the football forum but I need premium account to download the ruus, so...if anyone knows please give me a mirror for the ruu!! Thank you! Oh and the reason for this is my phone is stuck in airplane mode and I want to restore back to original rom to see if it cure the problem but if anyone knows how to solve this problem please do tell me ok?
My phone details:
Android version: 4.0.4
Sense Version: 4.1
Software number: Android Revolution HD 9.7.2 by mike1986
HTC SDK API LEVEL: 4.23
CID: HTC_044
Please help me! Thank you!
Check HTCruu.com
And how did you obtain the software version, that version 2.17.401 is a European wwe version numbers. The Asia wwe have 2.17.707 if i am not mistaken !
Do
Fastboot oem readcid
If its the Asia WWE you need (the 2.17.707) you need this one !

oh yeah..that one, actually i checked already and downloaded the ruu but its not in (.exe) form so...i dont know where to start reverting to the ruu..can you please tell me how do i do that? thanks in advance!
Edit:
Umm actually is I can't find my version..is it safe to flash the older ruu?
See my edited post above, but what version do you really need now ? Clear it up please
Sorry if i mess things up..
Actually it says clearly on my phone: 2.17.401.2
is it beacuse i flash the custom rom? I bought the phone in asia which was 1.29 version
Don't look at the phones software number in the OS custom rom you are running, that is not the real number that fits the hboot. You have to get the real version by doing the fastboot command.
Example : I am on JB 3.14.**** version and i flashed a 2.17 based custom rom, the rom version will show 2.17*** but in fact its 3.14**** you get my point !
You have to put the phone in fastboot usb mode and do the fastboot command i posted earlier ! :thumbup:
Ok! Thank you for that. So after I did the fastboot thing, it says: cid:HTC_044
Ow sorry also do
Fastboot getvar version-main
Roger! So...after that,I get this:version-main:1.28.707.10 :fingers-crossed:
Oke cool, you can use the ruu that i posted, it will bring you back to stock ics 4.0.4 !
Download the file, charge the phones batt full, relock the bootloader with fastboot command
Fastboot oem lock
And keep the phone in fastboot usb mode and run the ruu.exe from the pc WITH admin rights !
And if the 2.17 ruu fails (should not bit you never know ) then you need this one
http://www.htcruu.com/securekey.php...Radio_1.1204.103.14_release_257076_signed.exe
Will do that sir, Thank you for helping! I will post later if it is suceeded
Well, it works! But....the airplane mode problem doesnt seemed to be solved...what should i do now?...right now the phone is on 2.17 version.
should i downgrade my radio in terms of 1.28 version or 1.29...help me please..thanks
Well you can't run a ruu thats based on a lower hboot, you can only run a custom stock rom there based on the 1.28 or 1.29 software, i think your problem will not be solved by just flashing a different rom .....
I have seen more people regarding this airplane mode problem !
Did u try rebooting the phone a couple of times, and do a factory reset in the bootloader menu.....
Maybe setting up the APN can do the trick
Well, I did reboot my phone a few times and even made a hard reset but it doesn't solve it too...:crying: What is APN by the way?
The carrier settings in the settings menu
Nope..not at all.. and right now I am using the sim card on my other phone. So, sometimes when i am using wifi it randomly says "no sim card inserted" on the notification bar. So when i go to settings the airplane mode is off! But after a few seconds it is stuck in the "airplane mode turning off" again...so..do u might know what problem is this? *I can use my wifi and bluetooth though.*
Can you try a different simcard from another carrier ? I don't know how to solve this, the phone is completely stock now and i never had this issue before
Hi, I have been running Costume ROM for a while now & I wanted to go back to stock to update to the latest 4.1 sense
I know for one fact in all tutorials one way or another I should run the RUU exe that I have for my phone, but what ever I do I keep getting this error right where I double click to open it, can someone plz help me fix it, I can't get back to stock without this RUU, because after I relock on phone it asks me to run it & since I can't I have to re unlock & go back to the ROM I was running.
if it helps my one x build number is 1.28.707.10
this is the error I get (attachment screenshot)
& this is the error detail

somebody plz help, I tried this one as well, this one also didn't work, I'm familiar with the stuff, I know I'm not doing something wrong to restore, someone who's more advanced in this stuff please help me now mydevice is relocked, & can't run the RUU exe & when I reboot for anything it tells me:
"This build is for development purposes only
Do not sistribute outside of HTC without HTC's written permition.
Failure to comply may lead to legal action"
& then the device will boot back to bootloader with "device relocked" warning!
If you still have the unlock code , flash it
Phone in bootloader
Fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin
Then flash a custom recovery
http://db.tt/Krlm4dPs
Rename it to recovery.img and flash it
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Download a custom rom and flash it with the including boot.img
Then you have at least a working phone and you can charge it in the recovery before your batt runs out !!!
Ow and by the way the error has more to do with the pc than with the phone because its the correct ruu !!!
I know what i'm talking about mate

Thanks for the guide but all this is a normal process to go back to where I was, I have failed to run the RUU many other times while trying
Yes I have the unlock code, & I have gone back to a billion times, but this time I want to keep my phone half way bricked untill I figure out how to run the RUU file, because I have tried it here and there on other computers too & it still gives me the same error
I had the same error yesterday when running an older version RUU to get it's ROM.zip;
But running a latest version.. all ok. Not sure if this is complicating with the latest HTC driver installed.
BTW.. give the latest version for your device a try.
The latest is RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.17.707.3_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_278245_signed.exe
This is Sense 4.1, one version before the JB update.

What do you mean by 4.1 update ?
If sense 4.1, what you have now is sense 4.1, no more further update as this is the latest for sense 4.1.
If you mean the android 4.1.1 with sense 4+, maybe you need to wait a little bit longer before the update comes but you can try settings-about-software update-check now
But based on my experience with One S, I do not have update from 1.18 to 2.15; I have to manually update with RUU. Not sure if HTC stopped the OTA update when RUU is available.
So if there is no update, you can use the JB RUU to update to Sense 4+.

ow thanks once more, thankfully & luckily they already released the 4.1.1 with sense 4+ on OTA update, sense 4+ is amazing fast, my last sense experience was when I just bought my one x which was when sense 3 was just out, & I was disapointed, but now, I'm really surprised of it's smoothness & faster speed
Hey guys,
A few months back I got a HTC ONE X and after an update I had multiple issues ( The 4.0.4 update ) which caused me to have to return the phone ( A day after I had purchased ) and receive a new one. I had no evidence that it was the update that caused this but for my piece of mind I steered clear of that update with the new phone and turned off scheduled update check.
After months of happily using 4.0.3 I think its finally time to upgrade my version of Android especially with Jelly bean being available for the phone. Being on 4.0.3 I know there is updates available yet when I check for up dates it tells me that my phone is fully up to date. The HTC is from O2 , and I can't see whats stopping my phone finding these updates. My network is working correctly ( Connected to wifi but tried searching on my mobile data as well)
Anyone got any ideas as to why this is not updating correctly? I knew if there was an answer then XDA would be the place to find it , thanks in advance guys ( and gals )
Have you checked multiple times manually for the update ?

My CID is showing as [HTC_001]
Oke then you have a unbranded handset from O2.....I hook you up with 2 ruu files
http://androidfiles.org/ruu/securek...Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_274900_signed.exe
And this one
http://androidfiles.org/ruu/securek...Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_302015_signed.exe
You have to put the phone in the bootloader and run the ruu from the pc with admin rights ......
Is your bootloader locked ?
The first ruu will bring you to android 4.0.4 then check manually for ota again to JB if that does not work you can run the second ruu . That's the JB ruu !
Tip : charge the battery to full before you start !

I don't know whether my boot loader is locked , if so would this be an issue ? and can it be unlocked ? then how do I place the phone in bootloader
Apologies for all the questions
Hold the power button and the volume - button down together ....dont let go of them until you are in the bootloader ...
All info is on top of the bootloader
It says
LOCKED, UNLOCKED or RELOCKED
if you can post all info there to here ....

It is LOCKED
Oke then you can run the 2.17 ruu file from the pc with admin rights ..... It will bring the phone back to original factory state. Backup things you need to keep, even stuff from the sdcard to be sure.
Keep the phone in the bootloader when you execute the ruu
And charge the batt first if it is not full

Hi,
I've managed to mess up my HTC One X quite badly.
From poking around with fastboot I've got the following information from it;
PJ4610000
Main Version 1.26.401.2
Cid - none
Radio 1.1204.90.13
0.43.0000
I know how I messed it up. I'd not realised you couldn't install Jellybeam roms onto 0.43.000. One Cyanogenmod (cm-10.2.0-endeavoru) later and bingo, bootloop.
Didn't help that I had less than 30% battery life.
Anyway, I've now used a script to get the battery life up - but I haven't been able to run any RUU's on this - I downloaded two;
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_O2_UK_1.26.206.2_Radio_1.1204.90.13_release_251230_signed
and
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_Vodafone_UK_2.17.161.4_Radio_2.1204.137D1.21_release_280390_signed
I'm thinking now that I cant do these either because I'm on 0.43.000 or because I need generic.
Ideally I want it to be latest Android and generic stock. It's for my wife, so she doesn't need superuser - but I'd like it so If I can get there too, great.
i've read through the main sticky's, but can't work out what the steps are I should be taking to get it out of the bootloop it's in and onto stock
What do I download? Do I need to do this;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1660807
Or this;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069904
whilst I do it?
Help much appreciated, as I seem to be stuck at this stage.
Download a 1.26.401 Ruu or a 1.29.401 Ruu. You are trying to install the wrong ruu because the main number is different !
My advice :
Download the 1.29.401 ruu and relock the bootloader, put the phone in fastboot usb mode. Then install the ruu with admin rights and let it install. Reboot the phone and go to settings-about-software updates and check for ota....if they are there install all of them you can get !
If there are no ota's available you look for the 2.17.401 ruu and install that the same way as the 1.29 and then do the ota........still no ota, download the 3.14.401 ruu and install that too. After that you can install any rom out here.

Right so;
1 - Download a 1.29.401 Ruu.
Ok, so like -
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.29.401.12_Radio _2.1204.127.19_release_271851_signed.exe?
Having real problems finding a rom download, these all seem to be on bugsylawson.com which my ISP blocks, or Hotfile which is down, but I'll look into that.
So I run that, with the device in Fastboot and enough battery life, which I use my batch script for?
2. Then 'relock the bootloader'. Is that running fastboot oem lock, when in fastboot, using the .exe in the folder and a command line?
Any special to do 'admin rights'? Or is that my local Windows account you mean?
I'm a bit worried about running OTA as apparently, some of these RUU's for the One X the OTA updates don't work - 401.6, I think?
Not sure if this affects the one I suggested?
3. Then run another RUU to upgrade if OTA doesn't work?
Is that about right (and thanks for the help, obviously!)
1 correct, try this thread for download links
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094113
2: fastboot command is correct, leave the phone in the bootloader and start the ruu.exe from the pc, right click the file and select run as administrator
Ota should be there unless HTC/carrier has took them from the server, hence the advise that if it doesn't work to install a higher ruu after you tried.
3: correct

No joy with that site, I get;
This website has been reported as unsafe
www.androidruu.com
Then if I proceed;
"Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/ruu/public_html/admin/dbconnect.php on line 11
Could not connect: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)" when I try to download any RUU.
Site works fine here, sorry
See
Maybe Google the whole ruu name, there a couple of them on hotfile hosting.
I was planning to put a small selection to nu dev host. Nut thats of no use now. Not earlier than tonight
Actually I don't know the programing language, it may be PC or network security something like that.
We can do download at this site no problem.

The site works to the page you showed, I got that SQL issue from any rom link.
But luckily I've found RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.29.401.12_Radio_2.1204.127.19_release_271851_signed
elsewhere.
Running it now and it failed.
So now I'm showing;
Radio as 2.1204.127.19
And bootloader as 0.43.
Oh no, hang on, I've not locked the bootlader, maybe that's why. I'll try again.
Yep try again, it must be locked

I get an error when unlocking. It says "status read failed, too many links"
But on reboot, I get "Reloocked" at the top, so I've tried again and it seemed to work, well enough to get me to an OS!
Only thing is, my home buttons etc don't work.
Hmm that's weird. Rerun the ruu. And in OS try to update
Ow or look for the 2.17.401 ruu and install that also !
And do not unlock it until you are updated high enough ! You need at least a hboot of 1.36/1.39 which is common in 401 software numbers.

Awesome thant, although the 2.17.401 ruu there is messed up. It's only 80 Mb and that's way to little !
OK, got it up to the latest official version and the screen was broken, so had that replaced.
Now need to get Cyanogenmod on it.
First thing - relocking, right?
First thing is reading and understand the things you need to do. If you start by saying to relock it we are off for a bad start !
Read the stickies and guides first on what you need to do before messing around !

Sorry, didn't mean to cause concern - I meant, now my screen is repaired and I'd got a stock rom onto it- then upgraded the stock rom several times, the first thing I needed to do was unlock the bootloader again.
I went off, read up on rooting again and followed several guides. Rooted, unlocked bootloader and I've got it to the stage now where we're on a decent level of bootloader, Cyanogenmod 10.2 (stable) is running and the phone works.
So thank you very much for that.
Only issue I have now is the battery life has nose dived. It's barely doing 12 hours.
Screen seems to be mostly responsible according to the stats, 52%.
Might just try replacing the Kernel before I go stomping back to Fonedoctors about the replacement screen.
I've made so many changes to os, bootloader etc during this process I may well have missed a step with wiping the caches or similar.
I made a full backup of the stock os before I went to Cyanogenmod, so I can drop back to that now to check it's not the os if I need.
Any thoughts on a good Kernel? Or advice on how to most easily change kernel with minmal risk? I really don't want to dabble anymore, so it's tempting to go back to stock 4.2.2 and just strip out sense 5 - which I disliked.
