You don't need to update anything, your hboot supports all roms.
Unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery and install super user.zip

Hi experts,
i know this is very simple for you.. please help....
i have an orange version of HOX, which i have rooted(only root, no cust roms).
now to get OTA, i know that i will have to lock the bootloader again.
but my question is... i have been reading a lot about RUU... so do i need to do anythng there??? or just lock the bootloader?
please give me specific link to download and follow...please...
BTW my speck -
HTC One X, it is the UK Orange version, and i live and use it in India.
android ver - 4.04
sense - 4.1
softwre no - 2.17.61.3
htc sdk api - 4.23
kernel - 2.6.39.4
ENDEAVORU S-On RL
HBOOT - 1.12.0000
Radio - 2.1204.135.20
CID - ORANG001
No you don't need to flash ruu
Only relock bootloader
Also if youve installed cmw or twrp so any other recovery ...you have to install stock recovery ...
And you have to temporarily unroot by using the app ota root keeper
1.flash stock recovery
2.backup root then delete it (nit the backup )
3.lock bootloader
4.install ota update
You dont need to lock the bootloader, just flash the stock recovery and unroot the rom. That's all

Or a quick search here on xda is enough ! Don't be lazy now !!!
not tht he is lazy.. i think we noobs are just scared tht we dun scre* up the phone...
i will try to find it and post a link here....
but just 1 question.... can i just install any stock recovery tht i find for HTC one X, or it need to be somethng specific to my model... for ex version, CID etc..
You need to flash the stock recovery from the right base. Like the 2.17 or 1.29 base.
And the lazy part was just a little hint that everything is really easy to find here on xda. There are enough guides to follow....check the stickies in the android dev section and you will see that everything has been covered there ! :thumbup:
i really.. really did search for recovery img for ENDEAVORU, softwre no - 2.17.61.3, HBOOT - 1.12.0000
Radio - 2.1204.135.20
CID - ORANG001
i seriously dont seem to find it... i do find 2.17.XXX.xx though
please give me a link if someone has it.
also i will be using the ALL in One tool and i am hoping thts the best method.

It's in the first post. If you scroll and read a bit you see the download links for the recovery's
You need the 2.17 recovery ..the rest of the numbers are not important.
hi all.. is there a way to find out when CID - ORANG001 JB update is released so that i can unroot at that time?
i googled but didnt find an answer... is there a site or specific thread?
Yes keep an eye on this thread !

hey experts...
i am gonna unroot my HOX today....
so i have the 2.17 recovery...
which i can flash....
i have been reading a lot of tutorials whr thy finally flash RUU, but i dont need that as i already have stock.
i just need to unroot...
so what exactly do i do here?
1 - Flash Stock recovery
2 - Fastboot oem lock
Then what... what is the step that gets it unrooted??
is locking the boot loader enough???
i hope you understand what exactly i need here.....
i am doing all this just so that i get OTA!
Thanks in advance
BTW.. i also have SU installed.. do i need to uninstall it,
also as per MarcelHofs, i dont need to lock bootloader... so just flash stock recovery, and unroot...
so hows the unroot process exactly?
Flash recovery.img
Erase cache
Reboot remove supersu app(actually just to do this step before flashing the recovery)
Reboot and you are done.

No you do not technically need to be s-off. If you have cwm installed just install rom zip from there

In a nutshell, S-OFF means that the NAND portion of the device is unlocked and can be written to. The default setting for HTC’s devices is S-ON, which means that neither can you access certain areas of the system nor can you guarantee a permanent root. Furthermore, signature check for firmware images is also ensured by the S-ON flag.

Quoted from here
If you are bootloader unlocked instead of S-Off, you also need to fastboot flash a boot.img after each time you flash a ROM from recovery.

I'm total noob as well, but i want to start installing other roms on my DHD. I've Searched this forum for several hours, and I found a lot of different ways to root, unlock, radio off and I dont know what more you can do...
The best option for a noob sounds the Easy Ace Root Tool, as suggested in this topic. But what I dont know is what to do after the tool is done...
If I understand well, this tool wil unlock the bootloader, provides root access and flash ClockworkMod Recovery, right?
Can someone give me some information about the next steps?

Yes, you understand correctly. Next you flash a rooted custom ROM from recovery. You get those from the development forum. After you install it from recovery, you will need to fastboot flash the boot.img from the ROM zip using your computer.
is it enouhg to open the h-boot over the htc-dev page and after this to install maybe twrp for recovery,to flash roms on a desire hd,ofcource with flashing the boot.img with fastboot.Icant find another,actual way to root my DHD?!?

If you're rooted (and with ARHD you should be, unless you removed it) you can install the 4ext updater apk from the 4ext website (google for it). Then, install the recovery from the app.

Thank you very much... And one more question..
If I just instal 4ext recovery, would it just replace the TWRP which i have now or I have to unninstall it first?

It'll just get overwritten by 4ext. You don't need to uninstall it.

after you finished unlocking your bootloader and had installing a custom recovery (like 4EXT, TWRP, CWM recovery) then you can installing custom rom that you want..almost all custom rom is already rooted..
hope you can understand what i mean..
thanks for all
now I understand
Also after you flash the new rom (and assuming that you are only bootloader unlocked and not S-OFF), be sure to go into your bootloader and run a fastboot flash boot boot.img of the rom's boot.img that you just flashed. Not doing this step will cause much frustration.
Good luck!
after finishing you Root and S-off process go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=200234 and choose your ROM .. good luck :good:
Hi all,
Was just wondering;

Do I need to unlock bootloader via HTC, or is there another way now that we have S-OFF ?
And if there is, please do share

But it says I need to be S-OFF in order to proceed, and to get S-OFF I need root.
So how can I root in order to do it ? Would weak sauce work ?
Sorry, newB here when it comes to this
Go to firewater S-off website, the second method could let you s-off without unlock boatload and flash custom recovery as well as custom Rom.

I tried the second method but the weaksauce wont work on my Rogers device, I get an error...

I think that's okay to do HTCdev unlock bootloader first then flash custom recovey and get root.
Then, flash custom rom.
Don't worry dude.
