%i'm not responsible for any harm%
Just backup the rom trough a custom recovery, backup userdata on the pc.
download the new rom (zip) and place it on your phone, unpack the boot.img on your pc,
go in to bootloader (fastboot), and check if you can connect to it using the fastboot toolchain. (fastboot devices)
only if the commandline returns your device, continue
go in your custom recovery, and wipe system, data and cache.
then install the zip with the new rom.
then return to the bootloader, and flash the unpacked boot image by running the command: fastboot flash boot boot.img(path to your boot.img)
good luck

Hi all,
I'm looking at flashing ARHD. I've read through the instructions at least 20 times but I'm unsure of just a few things and want to be 100% before trying this as there are a heaps of people who seem to have bricked by not following instructions properly.
As I understand, the process is as follows.......
1. Download super wipe zip and place it on SD card.
2. Download rom and place on SD card.
3. Download firmware package and un-rar.
4. Download 'Official Clockworkmod Touch Recovery 5.8.3.1'
5. Disable antivirus protection on PC.
6. Ensure ADB drivers are installed correctly on PC.
7. Unlock Bootloader via HTC-dev
8. Boot phone in to bootloader and enter Fastboot Mode
9. Install "recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img" via fastboot
command in ADB console.
10. Boot in to the newly installed recovery and perform a nandroid backup.
11. Reboot phone into bootloader and enter Fastboot mode.
12. Run "install-boot-windows.bat' as administrator to install the new firmware
13. Reboot and enter recovery mode.
14. Using the newly installed recovery, flash the
"Android_Revolution_HD_Super_Wipe_One_X.zip" on the SD card.
15. While still in recovery, flash the Android Revolutipn ROM zip.
16. Reboot and enjoy.
Have I missed anything there and is this in the correct order?
At what point does the PJ46IMG.zip need to be installed? The instructions for this are unclear.
Also, in the event something goes wrong and the phone doesn't boot (but i can get into recovery mode), can I just flash the backup file? Or does the fact that I've overwritten the boot.img via Fastboot mean that I can't restore the backup without flashing a stock boot.img via fastboot first?
Thanks and sorry to be a n00b. I'm just finding the order a little mismatched moving between various threads and want to be 100% sure.
Cheers.
You'll be fine. Both Firmware 1.26 and 1.28 is OK with arhd.
On going back to your nandroided stock rom, flash your stock boot.img then restore stock nandroid.

Remember to flash boot.img before the rom
I got my One X yesterday, did all you did BUT, after step 11. nandroid backup, I did these: Nandroid -> Super wipe -> Flash boot.img -> Flash ARHD 3.1.0 and everything works fine

Hi Guys,
first off all, i wanted to let you know, that i come from GER, so excuse me for my english.
I tried to Update my CWM to Ver. 5.8.4.0 with the help of this Guide: http://www.guidingtech.com/12839/update-clockworkmod-touch-recovery-htc-one-x/
At the time, when i updated to the newest CWM-Version, i had the Stock-Rom (UNLOCKED) on my HOX.
But unfortunaley after that, it is now in the Recovery-Loop.
Here the things i already tried by myself:
- tried to restore some of my Back-Up's (with Nandroid), but even that didnt help.
- Factory Reset, WIPE (Data, Cache, Dalvik, Partition)
- flashing TRWP, but even after that, the Window with CWM 5.8.4.0 appears. (SOURCE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32667591&postcount=8)
- flashing Stock-Rom, guess what?
Sometimes, when i try to "Factory Reset", it shows CWM with a Versionumber of 5.8.1.8, and after "reboot system now" it comes again with 5.8.4.0?!
My whole SD-Card is empty, after the whole trys of resets and wipes, i can see it with mounting through CWM.
So im hoping, that some of u guys can help me.

What's your hboot version ? And you are sure you have the endeavoru type HTC one x ? And when restoring the nandroid, did u also flashed the boot.img with fastboot commands ?
Flash the cwm custom recovery again.
Fastboot flash recovery name of recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
Copy the desired rom within recovery to your phone and copy the boot.img from the rom to the fastboot folder on pc
Go in to bootloader .... Fastboot USB menu
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Go into recovery and wipe EVERYTHING EXCEPT SDCARD
Flash the rom.zip

Hey,
ENDEAVORU PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT: 1.12.0000
RADIO: 2.1204.135.20
should i take again the newest version or just one older of CWM?
About the rom, should it be a custom or stock? Or doesnt matter?
Which custom rom would you take? Cause i dont have the nerves, to change the HBoot or Kernels...
First things first ... What is your hboot version ? And what does your bootloader say ....endeavoru ???
It's on top of the bootloader looking like this
UNLOCKED
ENDEAVORU S-ON etc etc
And ofcourse the newest one. You can not mount sd card in the older ones

Well I don't have to lie ...I'm a big fan of the viper x. Just try it , your phone is already empty so why not
You can flash any sense ICS rom from here but no JB rom. Only the aosp jb roms will boot.

It works now...unbeliavible.
I just flashed the boot_signed.img from the Stock-Rom, and now all works fine.
But its really strange, that u need to flash the boot.img, even when u are on Stock-Rom.
Well, i learned something new today. xD
- Shinsou89
Good !
Maybe something messed up flashing the recovery before
And everytime you flash a new rom you also have to flash the boot.img from that rom.
First off, I want to state that I'm a complete noob at everything. Okay so today I tried to install IceColdJelly v3.2 from CyanogenMod 10, following the instructions on the page. When I tried to flash the the rom, I got a failed error. After that, I decided to just reboot my phone but now it gets stuck on the CyanogenMod load screen, then reboots itself and loops all over again. Is there anything I can do? My phone doesn't appear on my PC when I plug it in. I'm completely clueless as to what to do now so please help me!
Thanks in advance.
Do you have the required hboot to run 4.2.2 roms?
Failed while installing rom means either a not supported hboot/base or corrupt download... just redownload the rom and extract the boot.img from it and put it in your fastboot folder and then do the following.
1. Go to recovery and go to mounts and storage>Mount usb and put the ICJrom.zip and gapps on your phone...
2. Wipe data/cache partition/dalvic and then flash the ROM and then gapps..
3. Go to bootloader and then flash the boot.img via fastboot and then fastboot erase cache
4. Reboot

Are you sure you flashed the boot image and wiped everything properly (as described in most ROM's threads)?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
that problem will mostly occur if you are installling a rom in unclean way..
make sure you do superwipe and before flashing rom flash its boot.img and do- "fastboot erase cache" afterwards
then flash it from recovery

you do not need to root, flash custom recovery and unlock the bootloader everytime.
you did not flash the rom's boot.img. everytime you flash rom or kernel dont forget to flash boot.img. place the rom's boot.img inside your fastboot folder. then do the command:
fastboot erase cache.
fastboot flash boot boot.img.
then reboot.

yeah. you still have to that. extract the boot.img from the rom. place the boot.img inside your fastboot folder. boot your phone into bootloader. it you see fastboot usb you can now flash the boot.img.
open command prompt. navigate to your fastboot folder or you can just right click on the fastboot folder and select "enter comman prompt here" something like that. then enter this commands.
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash boot boot.img
that's two different command.

it does'nt matter it you flash boot.img before of after. but me i always flash boot.img first. because if you flash the rom first. you'll boot your phone to recovery then after you flash rom you'll boot to bootloader, where you will press power button + vol down. while if you flash boot.img first. after that just go to hboot then select recovery then flash rom. well that's just me. hehe.

Also in recovery, you need to wipe data as well if your coming from a different rom...
