Hi all,
I was on stock 1.26 then unlocked rooted and installed CWM.
I made a backup with cwm, and then installed CM9. I'm going to return my One X and want to restore the backup. My question now is, do I need and boot.img first before I can restore my backup? During the backup process CWM said 'backing up boot image..' So will it restore it as well?
Thanks in advance....

No just restore your backup, flash stock recovery and then re-lock bootloader.
Help (if anyone can)
Hi, noob here (registration wise) been lurking for a year of so now.
First up I want to say I am not totally new to everything, I have rooted, flashed all sorts of roms etc on other models but my issue is with returning to stock on an HTC One X. I am hoping either someone can help me or at least tell me no one can at the moment.
I have done a number of searches and tried various things none of which have worked I am currently romless (no os installed when checked last on twrp) however since then I have also tried flashing a rom.zip so no longer have twrp at the moment but hopefully can still install it as I can get into fastboot.
My device is on Voda UK so currently it doesnt have an ruu that I can find the only thing I found was this a 3.14.161.27 rom zip which I tried flashing but while it flashed it just stays on the htc screen (it seems quite small and didnt have a system image in so wasnt sure if it was even complete)
My question is can I do anything with a nandroid backup if I can find one to get a uk stock even if its not Vodafone (or does it have to be Voda) if so can anyone point me to a dl? if not can anyone suggest anything to try or am I going to have to try and flash a custom rom again and not be on stock until a ruu is made if one is.
Thanks in advance for any guidance

Hi,
Version-main is 3.14.161.27 (that zip i tried earlier was meant to be the latest files) cid is vodap001
Oke so the zip is a nandroid backup ? Of so, you need to unpack it !
Check here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140
It has your nandroid backup, in the OP you also get a description where to put it on the sdcard !
With the recovery i sent you, you can mount the sdcard as a mass storage device and copy it over

so does it not matter that the version number of a nandroid backup is lower than my version main? (sorry for the question this nandroid backups are the one part of this side of thing I am not familiar with)
No that's not the issue, but the thread has your exact main version nandroid !

ok thanks I just looked at the initial post and saw vodap001 was lower than my version (hence why my question) but then searched the thread and saw the vodap102 can be used on mine and that is the same version.
Yes it should be compatible......but you can also restore a lower matching version and restore the stock recovery afterwards and update to JB again !
If you want to be 100% sure it works , go for option 2 .... Restore the lower one and update again

ok thanks
Just popped up on my One X in the UK. Installing now. Looks the same as the other updates (360-odd MB.) At last! Version is 3.16.61.6
Edit - Now installed & feels great. Things I've noticed Orange have done:
- Browser icon changed to previous Orange icon (grrr!)
- Apps now include "Best Deals" (no idea - will disable), HTC Media Link HD (sure it wasn't there before)
Kernel is 3.1.10-g0867ccf
Yes, just got this myself too. There is also a "Lookout Security" app and a "Power Saver" feature. Will try that instead of Juice Defender for a while and see what happens.
OMG i just can't believe it, they said on FB "early new year", and now that suprise
now i have to back to stock and install it
Good news - glad to hear. Thanks.
I can't go back to stock 1.29.061.11 and i don't know why :/ Please share the RUU or ZIP file (is there a way to flash this OTA zip file via stock/custom recovery?).

Have you got the 1.29.061.11 ruu? If so all you have to do is relock your bootloader and then run it. If it won't run while your booted for some reason do it while your in fastboot.

From reading the instructions I need to flash Clock WorkMod, then do the Nandroid stuff is that right?
I've already got a relocked bootloader as I did have ARHD.
Could you give me some idiot proof instructions? The ones in that post don't seem to be overly friendly to people who aren't familiar with this. Many thanks
Don't worry it was my first time too
I believe you know how to use te commend line and fastboot commends
1. Unlock your bootloader
2. Flash CWM recovery
3. Download the Nandroid Backup 2.17.61.3 CID ORANG001 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140
4. Create folder in sdcard of your HOX (your sdcard\clockworkmod\backup\ put here unpacked nandroid "2012-12-22.14.26.42"
5. Copy boot.img from nandroid folder to fastboot folder in your PC
6. Flash the boot.img
7. Go to CWM and "Backup&Restore" -> "Restore", confirm you want restore it and thats it
8. Now you have only to flash stock recovery and relock bootloader
I hope you can understand my instruction, my english isn't perfect
Thank you for this, I'm gunna give it a go when I get home
Sorry for bothering you guys again ^^
Finally I found some informations about updating HBOOT one my HOX, but I don't want to ruin it, so i wanted to ask you if I understood everything^^
My acutal HBOOT is 1.12, my main-version (dunno what exactly it is called) is 2.17.771.3 and my CID is H3G__106 (Hutchison 3, Austria).
Currently I am on ICJ 1.72.
I've found the following threads:
H3G BRANDED JB | Manual Update, Nand, OTA File, Firmware.zip [4/2]
[TUT] How to upgrade HOX with a RUU(hboot.img, etc..) after installed a custom rom
[COLLECTION]Stock Nandroid Backups for Different CIDs
Unfortunately I'm not sure which firmware.zip, etc. I have to use to update my HBOOT on 1.39(?, I think it's the actual version) to use ICJ 2.1.
I would be pleased if you can help me and tell me what to do and which firmware.zip, etc. I should use.
cheers,

Well i would go with the nandroid backup (the one with from the last link) get your nandroid backup from there matching your MAIN number .... 2.17.771
You unzip the nandroid backup to the phone (read the OP to where exactly) then you flash the boot.img from that nandroid (located in the folder) and perform a full wipe in the custom recovery and restore the nandroid, boot it once to check the phone runs as new...all Oke, flash back the stock 2.17 recovery and reboot the phone and check for software updates.
And as for the firmware flash, the thread could not have typed it out better.....you need the part that says NAND H3G__106......
All the commands are in there and the links too

Well, thanks! I'll try it in the evening.
A last question: After doing the nandroid backup and firmware flash my HBOOT will be 1.39, am I correct?
Yes you are going to hboot 1.39.
But keep one thing in mind, only do one of the options. If you go for the nandroid backup you do not have to do the firmware flash......when you restore the nandroid backup completely including the boot.img and stock recovery you check in settings - about - softwareupdates for the official OTA and install that. The OTA will flash the hboot automatically and will update the software to JB :thumbup:

Well, it came to my mind that I only have the phone with the Hutchison 3 branding, but it is unlocked and I have another provider. Does this conflict with the option to do the nandroid backup and checking for software updates?
And if not, I think I have to unlock the phone again and do that stuff to flash a custom rom?
Ai i can't answer your first question, never encountered that before .... as for the second question, with a nandroid backup you do not have to relock the bootloader. So after the updating process you flash back the custom recovery and flash a new JB rom.

Well, okay. So I will just test it, and if I don't get any updates I can switch back to my old version of ICJ am I right?
Yes ofcourse .... do a nandroid of the rom you are running now and after that you restore the stock nandroid backup.
Don't forget to flash the boot.img again when you return to the old one
Well,
I tried the nandroid backup from this thread but I only get some md5 checksum errors...
Then I tried it twice with the backup from here but here I get sometimes a black screen (display is ON) after the htc logo and sometimes it goes past the black screen and comes to the screen where you see "HTC ONE BEATS AUDIO" and there it gets stuck.
I also did a full wipe every time before doing the backup and I also flashed the boot.img from the backup
Any ideas? :/
cheers,

I got simillar effect while trying to restore backup from that thread
And im actually in a boot loop for allmost two weeks, so i'll stick around for some usefull ideas

Uh, my bad I'll try it again in the evening ^^ Thanks for helping a poor noob
status update ^^
Used the backup from here, searched for OTA update (got one), tried to install it. Phone switched into recovery and I got some errors. Looked it up in google, found this site and removed this part
Code:
assert(check_cid(getprop("ro.cid"), "00000000" , "11111111" , "22222222" , "33333333" , "44444444"
, "55555555" , "66666666" , "77777777" , "88888888" , "99999999" , "HTC_……);
After this I was able to install the update (in recovery, using "install zip from sdcard"). After the update the phone reboots and gets stuck on the HTC logo. Hboot is still on 1.12. Now I used my old backup cause I need the phone tomorrow again. Any ideas how to get the update fully working? :/
cheers ^^
Then i guess the update fails because you need a backup matching your cid too !
Because the nandroid backup was for another cid (O2 and orange backups where compatible with different cids)
You can try to only perform the firmware flash to update the hboot and then flash a JB custom rom after that.
Mh, okay. Then I'll try it with a firmware update. But I am a little bit confused because when I deleted the part with assert(check_cid(...)) etc. I saw my CID, H3G__106, in this part.

Hmm okey, well i can't shine a light on that im afraid, but if the nandroid fails (who said that the nandroid is 100% stock anyway, we believe the uploader on that ) your best chance is with the direct firmware flash
Am I right that I have to do it with this manual? And do I have to install at first this stock backup or can I flash the firmware directly on my acutal ROM?
1) go into fastboot and enter "fastboot oem lock" - the device will reboot
2) go into fastboot again and enter "fastboot oem rebootRUU" - there will be a black screen with a silverish HTC logo
3) enter "fastboot flash zip firmware.zip" (you need the firmware.zip from page 1 for this)
3a) enter the same again, the green bar under the logo should go to 100% (either after the first or second time)
4) enter "fastboot reboot-bootloader" to go back to your fastboot
5) unlock your device again with the unlock code ("fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin")
6) Restore your old boot.img (fastboot flash boot name_of_boot_file.img) and recovery (fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery_file.img), make sure you copied them from the nandroid backup folder we created earlier into the folder that contains the fastboot.exe you're using.
(7) Reboot and you should now have Hboot 1.39 with your old boot and recovery.
(8) If it won't work we still have the backup ready to restore the old system, Hboot isn't changeable right now on S-ON devices outside of the RUU routine - so even if you restore your nandroid you should still have Hboot 1.39 now)

Yes thats correct. No neef to flash the stock recovery. Directly the firmware is enough. But reflash the rom with boot.img right after that....
---------- Post added at 12:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 AM ----------
Any succes ?
Well, now I did the firmware flash, put ICJ 2.1 on the phone and it works, but the phone doesn't get my sim card. Any ideas? ^^
Uhm well......does that rom needs a modified boot.img for the higher hboots maybe ? Just like the CM10. I would try it first with a full sense JB rom to make sure that everything works as it should, or try CM10.1 ?
Did you checked that the hboot is actually upgraded ?
Or could this have something to do that you unlocked it from the carrier ?
Screwed up rooting my phone and I've been trying to get it back to stock but I haven't been able to find the right RUU. I've gone through http://androidfiles.org/ruu/?dir=Endeavor and tons of other forums but I haven't had any luck. Here's the info for my phone:

you have to unpack the nandroid backup to the right folder on the sdcard (its in the OP of the link i sent you) then unfold the folders and check in the files of the nandroid backup. the boot.img is in there
Yeah i just put on TWRP instead of CWM. What are the commands to flash boot.img?
Well it depends on the nandroid backup if you need twrp or cwm !
Of the nandroid backup contains a boot.img file you need cwm, if it has a boot.emmc.won file you need twrp recovery !
Fasboot flash boot boot.img
or
Fastboot flash boot boot.emmc.win
Thanks for all of your help I ended up just throwing on Android Revolution HD and sticking with TWRP recovery. I guess CWM doesn't like my phone for some reason.

Hi guys.
Finally today I receive the OTA upgrade to JB. First an smal upgrade was succesfully downloaded and installed, and then the firmware to upgrade the phone to JB (I had 4.03 custom rom).
After the phone install the JB upgrade the phone stuck on the HTC ONE white screen
I had a backup on the SD that let me recover the phone, I try to install the upgrade again, with the same luck. I read a post that said that erasing the SD will resolve the issue, and I have no better idea than do it!!! (yeah... really!!)
I read several post all day on XDA, I try to flash again the boot and ROM with the upgrade that I save on my PC, and with a Backup via
fastboot. But nothing work (I dont know if I did it right). I cant see the SD on fastboot, already try a factory reset, when I go to the recovery option on fastboot the phone just rebooted with no options.
My CID is BSTAR301

u say you are on a custom rom, But you tried to update OTA?
Restore phone to complete stock ( even recovery) then you can update.
you could use an RUU or maybe a nandroid

Sorry, I mean I had the ORIGINAL ROM (4.03), the only change that I made was root the phone.
My CID is BSTAR301, I only have the backup files that I copy to my pc and the OTA upgrade that the phone download. I attach the images of the files that I have.
Could you please tell me how to restore it to complete stock with the commands? which files should I use?
Thanks for you help.

I assume that you first installed CWM or TWRP recovery to root your HOX, and if you make backup of your recovery this is CWM or TWRP recovery.img, not stock recovery.img that is came with phone because you reflashed original one with TWRP or CWM and official ROM need official recovery.img. I hope that you make nandroid backup before root with TWRP or CWM because is it "must to do" in every installation guide. If so, when you wanted to update via OTA for official JB you needed to:
1. reverse to stock software (for you, you needed only to unroot or use nandroid backup if you have yours, if not try to find one in xda one x forum matching your current CID and main-version)
2. reverse to stock recovery.img that is matching your CID (exact matching) (you need to find it on xda one x forum section) - i see that you have firmware folder but dont know is it from your backup or from OTA, if it is from OTA than you can use recovery.img from that folder to flash stock recovery.img via fastboot commands (only recovery.img)
3. then you can do official JB update via OTA
And then if you have need to custom ROM you need flash again CWM or TWRP recovery.img
Also you can get full stock with RUU but RUU must fully match your CID and main version, but RUU isn't available for every phone version, and after RUU you can do officall OTA JB update (for RUU you need to lock bootloader)
Information that can help us is yours phone current main version (fastboot getvar version-main)

Thanks for your help! I got the an RUU, after that I sent my backup to SD and now I have 4.0.4.
Now my phone show me a message to install the OTA to 4.1.1, but when I select install the phone make a reboot and show me CWM recovery with the message:
Finding update package...
E:unknown volume for path [INTERNALSDCARDownload/OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_S_BSTR_ESN_3.14.515.36-2.17.515.1....
E:Can't mount INTERNALSDCARD...
Installation aborted.
Why the phone can't mount the SD?
You need a stock recovery. Do :
Fastboot getvar version-main
And post the outcome !
Edit :
4.0.4 software....you need this recovery and then install the ota again

This is the result:
C:\CustomRUU>Fastboot getvar version-main
version-main: 3.14.515.36
So... I just need to install the recovery that you send me, reboot and try to install the OTA?
