im lost.. dont know what to do anymore.

sup guys!
I would like to have the JB update from ARHD 16 but im totally lost in the proces of how to do it.
i succesfully unlocked the bootloader
Installed Custom recovery and did a nandroid backup
also my phone is rooted
-Downloaded the custom rom
-Downloaded the flash boot IMG
soo what is the exact thing i need to do know? i know i need to update Hboot.. but when and how. also i want a custom kernel for max battery life.. IM CONFUSED!?!
with my motorola defy it was so easy..

First you need to update your HBOOT.
Easiest way is using >> THIS tools thanks to Stuart001.
After you succesfully done that you can flash the rom, a rom flash instruction is described in rom thread where you download the rom.zip.
Normal steps go like this:
upload downloaded rom.zip to storage on your device
flash boot.img
clear cache
install rom.zip using recovery option
Aroma installer (in rom.zip) has an option to wipe your device, I suggest you do that during rom install as well.
Of course this will erase all data, I'm just trying to help and don't take any responsibility.

if you have a supporting cid. Then only you can install jb sense roms.

ah nevermind. already found out how by chrashing my phone haha. i already solved it and now running custom rom!

One X stuck at "HTC ONE X"

ok im truely frustrated after trying to figure this out in past 2 days and reading more than 60 threads/websites.
Problem:
my one x was running 4.0.4 rooted +supre user+CWM, till i got the notification for 4.1 update. i pressed install now and downloaded around 380 MB, during the update phase a red exclamation icon appeared and phone rebooted into 4.0.4.
relocked bootloader, flashed stock recovery and downloaded it again and this time copied the OTA file before pressing install. so i installed and same issue.
uninstalled Avast AV (android) and ran through the same process again, same thing, started up into 4.0.4 again.
unlocked the bootloader, flashed CWM 5.8.4, copied ota file into phone and renamed it to update.zip. ran it from recovery menu and got status 7 error.
downloaded and ran JBFWTOOL21 and followed the instructions, during one of the steps i encountered an error and after restarting the phone i was stock at "HTC One x" with "beatsound" logo at bottom.
NOW NOTHING WORKS
what ive tried so far:
relocked loader and flashed stock recovery and tried Factory Reset, no luck.
unlocked loader and flash CWM and tried wiping cache and wiping disk. nothing.
relocked loader,flashed recovery and ran stock RUU "RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_ARA_1.28.415.9_Radio_1.1204.103.14_release_25679_signed" but it doesnt work, give an error related to version numbers or something.
extracted system.img, boot.img from RUU temp folder ROM.zip and tried to flash but cant flash system.img (918mb). something about not enough HEAP i think.
from the OTA JB zip extracted recovery.img, boot.img and recovery.img and flashed them. nothing.
downloaded "One_X_All-In-One_Kit_v2.1" and tried kernel flash, nothing.
clearing cache via fastboot command also doesnt work
really appreciate any helpful input guys, im really frustrated. thanks

Oh my.. First, stop unlock and relock of bootloader. Do you have a cwm backup from before all this started? Flashing cwm and restoring that backup will get you far.
The first ota attempt failed due to cwm, always return to stock recovery (recovery.img from your cwm backup image) before applying ota update!

unfortunately, no. no backup.
since it all started from the official update i didnt make any backups.

Stop trying flash randomly. Run the following command:
fastboot getvar version-main

it wasnt just random flashing, i starting reading different posts and so tried them all one-by-one to see which works, anyway the output:
version-main: 3.16.415.4

Well that's why the older RUU wouldn't work. You have the latest.
You'll need to go to the ROM backups thread and see if you can get a backup and flash its boot.img and restore it from CWM.
Actually, reboot your PC and try to flash system.img and boot.img again. You will probably need to be locked.

but isnt that the boot.img from "OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_ARA_3.16.415.4-2.17.415.2_release_304331jrfus698taf4vm1x"?
cause i have already tried it, didnt work. i have the OTA file.

Modified my post. Look up.

i have boot.img from firmware with hboot 3.16 and 3.19, which one to use?
and the system.img is from stock RUU which is "RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_ARA_1.28.415.9_Radio_1.1204.103.14_release_25679_signed", will that work?
the OTA JB is a zip file and doesnt have system.img.

Err.. 1.39?

yes
the firmware included in "JBFWTOOL21" is 1.36 which is used by many to manually upgrade to JB but the firmware inside the OTA file itself is 3.19 which is also the version i updated to since i thought its the reason the update doesnt work.
the Hboot version on my phone is 1.39 at the moment.

Hmmm. Looks like you'll have to find a backup in the backups thread and flash it.

i dont understand, a backup of what? the system.img?

Something similar happened to me....my phone was bootlooping. I flashed a custom rom and it booted up fine... did u try flashing a custom rom?

I thought about suggesting that too, but I'm new to flashing so I didn't feel confident enough to do it..
But off the top of my head, a custom rom, complete with boot.img and everything should work..
I'm using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2013506, it's super great and support all hboot versions.
No guarantees it will work though.

guess it worth a try even though i'd rather fix the problem in hand in another fashion.
gonna give it a try and post the results.

k so i downloaded the Blade rom and it worked, thanks "TwinAdk".
so now about JB. should i just use "JBFWTOOL21" or better if i do it manually?
and is this the right order to do it manually: ?
-unlock bootloader
-flash CWM
-flash boot.img
-install from zip in CWM

A nandroid backup, like what Clockworkmod recovery makes.

NP, glad it worked! So now you have a phone that can actually boot up and make phone calls.. Not on the stock rom you wanted, but it's better than when you started this thread
From this point on, you can use a "return to stock" thread for the HOX.
1. Make a NANDROID backup via CWM (so you can get back to what you have now!)
2. Move the backup to your computer, to avoid anything happening to it
3. See this tutorial ([TUT] Getting back to stock after flashing custom roms [Noob friendly])
NOTE: The thread says the following in the top:
NOTE: These instructions require that you have one of the ICS hboot versions in order to work (1.12.0000 or lower). If you have one of the new JB hboots 1.28, 1.31 or 1.33 there is currently no way to return to stock until a JB ruu is released for your device.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The "new jb hboots" also refers to 1.39.
I have the 1.39 myself, and i believe i am able to return to stock via my CWM backup of my stock phone, from before i flashed a custom rom the first time.. Is that assumption wrong? Someone more experienced than me to the rescue, please

i have read the same thing, also "BenPope" mentioned it. so with this version of Hboot (1.39) i cant restore unless its a nandroid backup.
but i dont wanna go back to stock ICS! i wanna finish what i was trying to do in first place, Upgrade to JB.
but no matter what i do i get the "status 7 error". i have tried it with the OTA my phone downloaded and also downloaded it again directly from HTC website via a link from one of the threads in forum.
so status 7 apparently is related to CRC error but how can that be? and what is my option right now to do the upgrade? also bear in mind that before all these happened the normal upgrade process via the "system update" also failed with a red icon error.

[Q] Tried to flash a kernel through hasoon2000's kit, now stuck on htc logo screen

Hi, I'm a complete noob and I just used Hasoon2000's kit to root my phone. I accidentally flashed the stock kernel because i thought that was a part of the rooting process. Now my One X is stuck on the logo screen. I'm a complete noob and I would really appreciate help without sarcasm.

Which rom are you using currently, you just need the kernel from that rom which you can flash from fastboot.

We need to know which stock system version you had to get the right kernel ideally or if you have a custom recovery you could go and flash a new rom which will have a kernel to go with it (depending on your hboot version).

I've got 4.1.1
I've also got ClockworkMod. I wanted to install cyanogenmod. Can I do that? Also if the battery is low can it recharge while stuck on the logo screen since only then I can see the red led indicating charging. Oh and I have hboot 1.36.0000

Then go ahead and install the latest CM. Your hboot is compatible !

um, How? I understand you're supposed to place the .zip file on the sd card. My phone is stuck on the htc logo and the storage device doesn't show up on my pc, It's only registered as My HTC in the device manager.

I could be wrong but I think it charges when in custom recovery but not at the bootloader? Also you can mount the internal storage to your pc from custom recovery to copy a zip onto the phone.

Can you give me a link? I've been trying to find one for the past hour. All of them require the sd card.

Oke here we go :
1: what recovery do you have, type and version number ?
2: have you downloaded the cm rom + gapps ?
3: do you know fastboot commands ?

Flash this recovery, your battery does NOT charge in that old recovery
http://db.tt/SPXdFfPw
Then flash the boot.img from the cm10 rom. Its inside the zip
Then you make a full wipe in the recovery and install cm10 and right after that the gapps file (all can be downloaded from the cm10 thread)
Reboot and done
Edit :
All flashing can be done with the toolkit

Right, Thanks. But do I place the downloaded recovery in the recovery folder in the kit files? I did that and i don't see new recovery in the toolkit. But I'm assuming that's not what we're supposed to do anyway...

Right, so I tried to flash the recovery from the fastboot folder.It tried to do that but battery was low. I'll deal with that, but just tell me, can I flash the rom and the boot.img the same way as that?

You can put files into the storage by booting into cwm recovery, selecting mount USB storage, and connecting it to your computer.
For how to flash ROMs, look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069904 second post.

Battery too low ?
Oke put this file inside the fastboot folder on the pc (you have the fastboot.exe file, should be in one of the folders in the toolkit dir)
http://db.tt/aLqeTpPO
Execute this file with the phone in the bootloader ! It will continuing to loop your bootloader and charge it little by little. Let it run for about 30 min and then flash again the recovery. The recovery name must be just "recovery.img" so rename it if needed

So after I've done that, How would I flash the rom, I can't mount sd storage through cwm because it says " uns error, no such file or directory" I formatted the usb earlier, could it have something to do with that? Is there any other way?

Thats because i told you to flash the new recovery first from the link i gave you. That one is able to mount the sdcard so you can copy the rom + gapps to it

Problem with installing ROM. (newb)

Hey guys!
First sorry if this is wrong subforum, or there is an anserw for my problem. I spent about 5 hours on trying to do this.
Firstly I'm a noob in this subject.
I want to flash rom X - Gamer or True Smooth. ( are they any good?)
And I flashed generic .62 on my phone (Xperia Arc ) but I don't know what to do next.
I tried doing all those drivers, CWM, kernel things but I'm just lost now.
I can't learn all the things in one day..
Can someone give me links to best versions of things I need and say step by step how to do it? (or link to good toutorial)
Thank you so much for any help guys!

you need first flash kernel, then you must open cwm and set your zip file of rom from your sd card

So I need to paste it on SD card in zip? K.
When I'm trying to flash it in fastboot mode that appears "ERROR - This action can only be done in fastboot mode"

Do you have unlocked bootloader?
You have to place the ROM .zip file on the SDcard.
Depending on the bootloader status, you have to either install custom kernel for CWM Recovery or install one in system partition, latter being more riskier.

Yup I've gott my bootlader unlocked.
So what next after placing .zip file on SD?
"- Copy ROM setup file to SD card
- Enter CWM and choose the setup file
- Follow instruction in AROMA installer, customize the ROM as you like and click Install. NOTICE: in Extra section, unchecked item means you don't like it to install with this ROM, so it will be removed if it's already existed (in case you re-install the ROM)"
These are isntructions, so how do I intall CWM correctly?
Phone is rooted, I've got recoveyx on it and i installed CWM for GB. But I can't acces recovery mode. I spammed back button, volume down, hold it..
Please help..

If you have unlocked bootloader, get custom kernel for GB (LuPuS or DooMKernel), flash it in fastboot mode, get into the recovery, factory reset, wipe /system and then install zip from sdcard and choose the ROM zip.
Having unlocked bootloader and then rooting phone, installing CWM via an app is useless, time-wasting and caused many issues.

Okay I'm lost again.. I flashed Lupus and my phone didn't want to start. Blue led flashed but screen was still black..
now I've got android version 2.3.4 (4.0.2.A.0.62) generic.
Bootloader is unlocked (100% sure)
Which kernel should I choose to make this work?
Sorry I'm so nooby in this subject

K I kindof sorted everything. Thx for help!

HTC One X Semi Bricked NEED HELP.

Hello,
Well, I was trying to install some new kernels but somehow my phone went into Boot Loop.
After that, I accidentally formatted my system and system memory. End Result: Their is nothing in my SD Card Right now.
I have searched in this forum and others for 2 days and still can not find a proper solution. Now, my laptop and computer does not recognize my device through adb device. I tried to insall stock rom through RUU but it gave an Boot Loader Version Error. However, I managed to install philz recovery and tried to mount memory but still no luck, I can not push files through adb as it can not recognize my device.
My CID is 02_001. I downloaded the matched CID RUU (RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_O2_UK_1.26.206.2_Radio_1.1204.90.13_release_251230_signed) but it didnt work. My image number of the phone (I dont know what is this actually) is like 4.xxxx and the image number of the RUU is 1.xxxx.
The HBOOT version is 1.72 S ON.
Can someone by someway, please give me the link of UPDATED RUU so that I can flash to stock rom or just help me to find a way to transfer custom rom to my phone memory so that I can flash a custom rom.
I was using VIPERX ROM 4.1.1,as the phone was draining alot of battery so over efficiently I tried to FLASH BRICKED KERNEL.
NOW I AM STUCK, HELPLESS and after losing the battle I am posting this thread.
PLEASE HELP ME WITH A SUITABLE ANSWER.
I would prefer to install stock rom but it wont work I guess because of the updated HBOOT version.
