HTC One XT (S720t / T-SCDMA) - RUU, Custom ROM, Radio Stack

I have rooted my HTC One XT (S720t) to be at least allowed to do something with my device. China Mobile delivers the device totally locked up and hardly allows any useful software. Successfully installed Google market app but the ROM seems to have a feature to make sure it cannot be used (always crashed right after opening, others have also reported the same).
Unfortunately my company is bound to China Mobile so I was unable to buy a standard S720e if I want to enjoy 3G.
Rooting and and installing custom ROM was quite smooth and easy but it seems that the flashing the Android Revolution HD ROM has messed up my radio stack/baseband (at least within Android; bootloader still states the old correct radio stack).
I never had problems with the radio stack so I am quite new to this topic and have the following questions:
1. Do I have a problem or not?
2. I made a backup before flashing, will this also bring the radio stack back to normal? If yes, could I extract it from the backup and flash it manually via fastboot (device is rooted but S-ON)?
3. If 1 is not possible, can I flash the backup and then somehow dump the radio stack image?
4. Does anyone know where to get the shipped ROM for this device? S720t seems to be a very rare device and I cannot find anything. Have asked HTC but not sure if they will provide it to me to fix my device.
5. Does anyone know how to get this rubbbish China Mobile parallel market out of this phone and run the standard market (that would be already enough for me - I need Skype for my work). Full control for sure is always nicer.
Thanks for any comments...

no one is gonna be developing for the xt here. even though we have the same chipset. You should go to xda.cn, and join one of their QQ 群，to ask for more info on any ports of roms for the XT. good luck bro

Thanks Kluvj, was unaware of that website. As this website probably has more users I also might find some answers here by understanding the background better - that is easier than in Chinese. But I will definitely check it out...

Thanks, could you let me know why it will not work? Are the devices physically so different?
Have installed the ROM and everything looks fine besides the radio stack under Android stated as unknown. Bootloader states still the China Mobile radio stack (any idea how to backup this one so that I can flash back in case it is messed up?).
<Update>: Everything on the device works normally (also Wifi) BUT mobile is completely dead. After using recovery the old system is back but baseband still unknown and mobile network dead. So got myself a tablet for couch surfing now...

Finally managed to find the stock ROM, use the way described in the forum to get back to stock ROM and now everything is working again. Thanks, guys.
Main problem is, that the stock ROM phone is completely useless without apps. None of the apps that I have on my other phone are featured in the Chinese parallel market. No airline apps, no newsreaders, nothing. Just useless cute games and some standard apps and even the market application is in Chinese only.
A mighty phone - and nothing to do with it except listening to music, playing games and chatting. I am wondering how HTC can allow totally crippled phones like the S720t to be marketed. Crippled and no option to break out of the jail. Phone will go back to the shop tomorrow, even my Incredible S beats the S720t easily. This phone is a living brick.

i do have the same problem, could you help me, where you found stock kernel?

Sorry for the late reply, have been travelling...
I have downloaded a ROM from some Chinese filehosting websites (had to register first) and then got the file. Did a google check and cannot find my orginal DL-link anymore. Try to look for variations of ROM_ENDEAVOR_TD_ICS_40_HTCCN_CHS_CMCC_1.zip Can also upload the file somewhere; PM me how and then the phone can be brought back to original status again (check the stickies).
So far found no way to flash custom ROM (did not check for some weeks now). Easy solution to have access to software at least is to unlock the device and install the google app set manually, that will bring up the google market and that already made me happy.

I am in the same boat, i found this : http://bbs.gfan.com/mobile/android-4912638-1-1.html?extra=page%3D1%26amp%3Bfilter%3Dtype%26amp%3Btypeid%3D483
I initially tried to flash ARHD but it would not boot (bad boot.img i think), the ROM above works fine for now.
It is rooted and has Google Play.
If you flashed a wrong boot.img, that rom as the correct boot.img in the zip so you can extract and flash it.
Only downside is that it is slightly older (android 4.0.4, sense 4.0).
I will look for updates later as i just got the phone yesterday i haven't had time to properly look around.

Oh, thanks. That is actually the first custom ROM that I have seen.
Can you confirm that the radio stack is working/compatible?
I have Google Play installed now, just need to download the package and unzip it locally - but I would like to get rid off all this China Mobile rubbish and especially of their own app shop because it interferes with Google Play.
Might try that version later by myself (btw my original phone only came with Android 4.04. and Sense 4.0).

Yes all works fine and all the chinese crap is not there. only a Chinese webbrowser, but you can remove it and install what you want.
just before I installed the Rom I had the OTA which updates sense and the os, ARHD also has the updated software, but hopefully the guy will update the Rom soon .

This I understand but can't we just flash it with a different ROM from a different carrier? say UK ROM?

didnt he say he is running ARHD in the OP?
i didn't know this was released in china
is it confusing with all these different naming and devices for china?

Yes but he mentioned there was a problem with the radio stack/baseband therefore couldn't use his mobile.
From what I understand, the hardware for HTC One X and HTC One XT are pretty much the same. The only difference is the custom OS from each carrier.
So my question is, can I install any 1 of the custom ROMs from here for the One X on the One XT?
Any help would be great.

I think the HTC One XT uses another kind of mobile technology like SCDMA. Therefore, most ROMs here would work, but mobile wouldn't.

From what I understand, SCDMA is the Chinese variant of CDMA, and only works on China Mobile. You would have no luck trying to find a ROM here that supports SCDMA so try going on xda.cn

Many thanks, works brilliantly. One minor tweak I would suggest is removing the 10 count self destruct on bad pin/patterns. It's the only thing I changed other than removing some unwanted apps.

Understood. I wasn't sure what you were considering stock vs modified since you enabled things like tethering/power save/sd write permissions. No problem though, it's easily fixed. Thanks again!

Makes sense. What I tried to do was add what I felt everyone would use.
Some people may like the 10 count thing.. I sure wouldn't but, hey to each their own.

HTC Fetch
Does anyone have an HTC Fetch, and if so does it work for them on the M9?
I have one but it doesn't work on M9 although HTC says it should.. works perfect on my M8..

I noticed that motion launch features aren't available as the system wants me to enter a PIN for the SIM card.

Glad that a developer started working on CM for P905 ☺
Thx a lot @Valera1978 for taking the time to make it happen
Will try it soon
Keep up the good work ?

Merry Christmass and Happy New Year to everybody!
Great News.
I just burnt this ROM (v2) and it’s great. Everything working great and fast so far.
Finally a ROM developed for this device. Thank you Valera1978.
I know this topic will be very busy after the hollydays, because half of the note pro owners have the Snapdragon version, and this ROM is great news for this crowd which was abandoned on their own untill now, but not anymore.
(OBS: mind you I have the SM-P905M, which is known to have a different modem hardware than the international SM-P905, so I didn’t expected to get LTE or 3G working, but I don’t use it anyway, because I thether from my phone, as most people do. Probably, in the future someone will figure out a way to burn the proper modem software for this particular version. Everything else is working great.)
Again, thanks Valera 1978.

After some tests i realized that i couldn't get video record working. Seems like the camera is recording, but looks like the video is not saved anywhere. I'll do some more testing. Photo is OK.

@Valera1978
Hey my friend, thanks for your excellent work!
However in the 26/12 I had lost the 3g/4g capability.. In fact, I have a message here saying that there is no simcard. By the way, my tablet is a p905m.. But I was using a p905 LP firmware without any problem.. and in 25/12 build, simcard was working flawlessly.. Any clue? When I check Mobile Network in settings, there is no option for GSM but only for CDMA.. Maybe that's the problem..
Once more, thanks!

Hello.
Thank's for your hard work. One question I have before I install it: What about root in this ROM ?
Many thanks...

Root is working flawlessly. The rom is awesome, smooth as butter, fast like a lighting.. stable so far.. impressive work that @Valera1978 did, kudos to him!
The only problem I faced so far is gsm network that is missing on this last rom. I got a missing sim card message.. besides that it's a like CM official release for sure. Thanks to @Valera1978

For those in P905M this rom is totally compatible with your tablet.
Just pick the 12/25 version that has Mobile Network completely functional if you cannot stand without it.. but you gonna be without sound until our beloved dev @Valera1978 fix it.
If you can go without Mobile Network and don't wanna stand without sound pick the last release.. you are good to go, however, without 3G/4G capability..
Hopefully our beloved dev gonna release us soon the best of both world, I mean, and fully functional and interchangeable rom for both P905 and P905M :good: :good: :good:

andrew. mackew, was you able to record an play the recorded video with the v2 (26/12)?
root is working ok for me, but su# was not installed automatically as usual in custom roms, so i installed it afterwards. I've just learned that su# is not really needed but it improves security by not granting root automatically to any app that requests root.
I was under the impression that sm-p905M and SM-P905 had different modem hardware, because i read it somewhere in the forum, and i could never get 3G/LTE woking on my 905M with a 905 Rom. Maybe that's the case for Latin America, where the 3g/4g frequencies are different from those used in USA. I'm not shure if the modem hardware is really different, if only the frequencies in Latin America are different or if it's all compatible despite the differences.

All P905 and P905M have interchangeable modem if the bootloader is from the same Android branch.. (KK, LP, MM... )
To have it working properly, you have to first update to the last P905M Lollipop firmware and only after that to flash the latest P905 Lollipop firmware.
You can use flashfire to do that. If for any reason you don't get to install the modem properly, you need to flash the modem tar or md5 file through Odin separately from the rest of the firmware.
Doing this, you are good to go to use the P905 firmware in a completely functional way. :good:

New build up!!!
Thanks @Valera1978! You're the best! :good: :good: :good:
Looking forward to have your builds become CM official! :good: :good: :good:

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away....
About a year ago I promised to do something for the P905 - but there were big problems with this without P905, now I have the P905 and I started to work on CyanogenMod for him.
Now all working, and now I'm focusing on build cm13.
I'm not responsible for any damage to your device of any sort.
By flashing this you take responsibility of anything that happens.
Process at your own risk!
Instructions
1. Install custom recovery
2. Download the zip(s) - firmware and Google Apps additional package (optional)
3. Backup all partitions (it least efs) and store somewhere - it need to do - because you can loose imei
4. Full wipe all
5. Flash firmware and gapps
Root
Settings -> About tablet -> press 7 times "Build number"
Then Settings -> Developer options -> Root access
Stylus gestures
Settings -> Language & input -> Stylus gestures
Gestures work only when you press a button on the stylus.

Hey, I didn't face such issue so far.
What is your modem version? Be sure to have the latest one (P905) installed and then try again.
The only issue so far is that IR is not working.. but for sure @Valera1978 is already looking over this.

Has someone give this Beta a try?

Trying now, just be aware that flashing WILL completely wipe your phone again... Everything is gone...
Seriously though, how hard is it to NOT wipe everything like, oh i don't know, every other phone out there...
There is not much difference between this and the last OTA update, I have found the fingerprint sensor a little better but even the security patch level says 1 March 2016... Can't say anything about battery life yet, I find it usually takes 3 days for that to settle but I really haven't seen much difference in UI or settings. Most changes must be "under the hood" so to speak... Doesn't help there's no changelog...
Found the case doesn't seem to register being closed easily so it just leaves the phone on even though I have the original case that has the screen cutout for clock and whatnot.
Keyboard still doesn't support swype...

Untick the userdata.img if you don't want your data to be wiped.

Been running this for a number of days now, not run into any problems except it was slightly more difficult to root, lot of trial and error but I'm going to post a tutorial on how I rooted it later today.

Correction, someone has already posted the method here >>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/elephone-p9000/how-to/how-to-root-elephone-9000-stock-rom-t3359315
The tutorial in the link above works for this firmware version as well.... could have saved myself a lot of time if I'd read that first lol. For convenience I've put all the files needed in a zip file (link below). Just use SP Flash Tool to flash the recovery, then flash the 2 other zip files from TWRP
ZIP File >>> https://mega.nz/#!IlgxgDhS!r6_OpFYLVv07o025ecJ9rDul2db1KMsoWAlZbabWMxI

trying to flash this but SPTools (5.1520.00) giving me "Error: Initializing scatter file failed. Please check the name of the scatter file which you load is legal" any ideas as to why? I have tried the other rom listed that isn't the BETA and get the same error...
Also, I don't appear to have the Allinone.bin file for the DownloadAgent, can someone please share that too me?
Thanks
Ignore that, I seem to have got it working.

Where do you get these ROMS from? I'm looking for rom version 20160318 for the p9000 lite.

I could only get 5.1604 working, 5.1612 wouldn't work for me at all on Windows 10 in VirtualBox.

Ok thanks

Elephone B Version 2016 CyanogenMod 13 ?

it was funny how I realized mine was the new version now
I made this thread here so you guys can discuss, this is for information to others who have gotten the new elephone
1) How do we get root ?
No, there isnt any proper recovery last @Emileh ported it did not work very well you are able to flash it the recovery but you are unable to boot back into the system it just stuck at the elephone logo.
2) as of now we only have one rom that has been up here and running K06TE-A.A.vR14.E1.160707 (2016 Version)
K05TS-A.A.vR1E.E2.160217 (2015 Version)
3) cosmetic mixed up (happens alot on chinese phone)
my front is the old 2015 version cover but my back is the new fingerprint cover (possible you can confirm with that is the new elephone you have if you are not sure.
4) so no root and no cyanogenmod and no recovery ?
as of now Im not sure about root, cause I did tried to flash recovery from @Emileh but I could not boot back to android os, so we cant flash supersu,
kingroot and others dont work !
also there some memory layout changed, so it will render the android 5.1 roms useless, please dont try unless you know what you are doing and know how to recover from mediatek usb port
5) will CyanogenMod 13 work ?
to be honest we need a fully working recovery.
maybe there can explain and clear anything more that I left out, I have just gotten the phone
@skeleton1911 @BlueFlame4 @Emileh @Deepflex
somehelp would be nice. thanks would be nice to get cm13 for both the 2015 and 2016 working

Hey,
well the 2015 and 2016 versions are basically two different devices - despite having the same name they share very little. A unified CM 13 build is thus not only difficult to establish but I would even say that it makes things more complex than developing two single versions. That said, CM 13 for the 2016 should be rather easy to bring up because it ships with 6.0. Basically you could take Deepflex's P9000 tree, change it according to the 2016_P8000 and boom - should work. With that you can then of course also compile a working recovery to achieve root That's the theory at least

Is that so but we have yet to achive root and figure out what is the internal changes between those two? Maybe @Deepflux can lend a helping hand in this wish you could help out @BlueFlame4, cause I finally had the money to get this phone possible if you could look into the recovery issue on why it does not boot after flashing it aka bootloop at elephone logo

** Attempted to Port and it does not work. did repack twice.

Hey. Just saw this topic.
I made a better version of the recovery (but forgot to post it), which is actually able to flash roms. It now also mounts everything properly. Flashing root on stock rom works 100%. (only thing not working in ADB, I think).
I will upload it later.
Problem is, there are no roms (expect stock, which you flash using SP Flash Tools). You can't flash the roms that other have made for the old version of the phone. Doesn't work like that.

yeah @BlueFlame4
mention something about cyanogenmod from @Deepflex, could it be this ?
https://github.com/Deepflex/android_device_elephone_p8000/commits/master
hopefully we can get cyanogenmod working, possible if you release the recovery ? is it TWRP ?

I was talking about this. You have to adapt it to the P8000 and have to use a 3.18 kernel (+ M blobs) though.

there isnt any 3.18 kernel that was released right ? m blobs can be extracted question is why won't your cm13.1 work on the new elephone ? memory changes ? it is still same soc right or there is something different quite confused.
