No idea what is wrong with this damn phone but this happens every time I turn it off. It goes to the white Evo 4G screen, then resets, vibrates, and goes right back to the Evo 4G screen.
Not rooted, nothing custom about this phone.
Help please!
Try running a RUU.

Absolutely.
This is what they would do at the Sprint store if they have to reset your phone.
Nothing to be afraid of.
only if ur s-off can check if it says s-off or s-on in your bootloader
nah u shouldnt be worried bro
Are you rooted and what method did you use? What did you do last that started the issues? You could just try to reflash a OTA rooted version check the DEV forums for one .

Okay just read your thing lol your not rooted did you do any of the OTA updates? Might be causing your issues. Since your not rooted. If your having issues take it to sprint they will probably swap it out.

All i read was people saying he was rooted lol i just read the OP first post . He might of screwed something up in the middle of a update maybe a factory reset ? or just take it to sprint.

It appears to already be named PC36IMG
I put it on root of SD Card, go to fastboot, nothing comes up except Bootloader, Reboot, Reboot Bootloader, and Power Down

I am doing this the most ass-backwards way possible.
I do not have a USB-Micro USB cord. I am now transferring that large file via bluetooth to my Blackberry, where I switched the Micro CD Card out with my EVO. I also lost my Micro-SD adapter.
This whole ordeal has been one massive fail.
I'm about to pass out, but will update tomorrow.
Thanks!
Edit: Limited to 5 thanks per day? Well, until tomorrow, my verbal thanks will have to suffice gentlemen.

Hey guys I just released today that my phone had the OTA update and i'm on Three in UK.
Anyhow I'm really wondering how I can update it with my rooted phone i'm pretty sure it will cause problems. What is the best way to update to the latest software with a rooted phone?
Do I have to unroot it?
Do I have to relock bootloader?
I'd like some clarification!!
Thanks a lot.
i just done the same on my three Uk version, i had to uninstall cwm install original recovery lock the boot back and download update and install,
priesl forpage
I swear you only had to relock the bootloader.
well i guess i done all this for nothing as i just come of the phone to three, i got the black version of htc one x, i found screen flickering so they going to send me the new one , well i thought ill go for the white one lets hope the new phone is ok

This is what I'm wondering. I'm running stock rom (rooted) and from what I can gather you have to unroot and reflash HTC stock recovery. I'm waiting for confirmation before I go ahead though

I asked in another thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25508923
Looks like you havn't got to relock bootloader, just unroot, flash stock recovery (if on a custom recovery) then update
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
I may be wrong but I though it still updated if on stock, you just lose root so you need to root it again afterwards. That's from past experience with Samsung phones, but thought it'd might be similar on other phones which is why I added my input.
Ota updates check system files before it reports if an update is available (does it not?), if it reports an update it must be fine IMO.

Ok so i need to send my inc 2 in for a refurb. I am currently running AOKP build 37 with aeroevans v9ics kernel and an unlocked BL. How do i return to complete stock unrooted?
i've seached all over the forum and can't find anything. It was easy with my droid x2 because you could just run the SBF with RSD Lite.
I also have the new software version 6.1 if thats any help.

Your running AOKP right now right? According to your first post you are anyways. That means your not running the 6.1 anymore. In other words you should be fine.

Hmm. What did it say as it went through the process?
It didnt say anything. It found the PG32IMG.zip file, ran it, and then returned to the bootloader screen. I tried running it again just in-case something weird happened, but same result.
also on a side note im s-on, the 6.1 OTA doesn't allow s-off at this time

I didn't think about that. That could be the issue then. No nandroid backup of your stock ROM right?
I'm thinking the best you can do is find a similar to stock ROM and install that. Most times the service techs don't look to hard at a device to see that it is running a custom ROM.

Great! Use that and then download one of the apps that helps to remove root. One such app is OTA Rootkeeper. https://play.google.com/store/apps/...m9yZy5wcm9qZWN0dm9vZG9vLm90YXJvb3RrZWVwZXIiXQ..

It is worth the trouble if...
A. You know what you are doing.
B. You read and research.
C. You know how to recover in the event something goes wrong.
Flashing isn't for everyone. Even if you follow directions things can still go wrong in rare situations. That's just the nature of flashing.

I received a verizon htc one from someone in a trade for my wife and it was already rooted and I believe the bootloader is unlocked and I believe it has s-off. It had the unsense 4.4.2 rom already installed but my wife does not like how you have unlock the screen then hit answer call to answer incoming calls. Also the notification light is not working on that rom so I figured I would try installing something else for her. when you post a rooted version of the new ota can i install it via twrp that is already installed on the htc one?
