I suppose if you're good with Emmc dload mode it wouldn't be so bad.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vin255764:
not that good,but I know couple people who could help me in case of emergency.

The thing is hexedited version of stock hboots never bricked my older phones (evo4g,evo3d).I've done it few times

my plan was to edit version 1.00 and let ruu "upgrade" to 1.09.

wp situation require to enter in dload mod,but how lol
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] LimesAreOranges:
I did the steps perfectly, my phone downgraded. AWESOME. But, When I try installing the rogers ruu I come up with "error154 image updating error" Whats going on?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mlaws90:
I am getting the same error runign the 1.85 RUU, I tried flashing 1.81 Telstra then doing the RUU and still nothing.

When i try to downgrade the mmcblk0p23 is all ZEROs...what should I do and why is this, I want to RUU because I want to start fresh, rohan kernel causing reboot and I want to try this to fix it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Bedeadu:
Downgrade RUU success without having to dd files...

For months my phone has been plagued with my signal dropping off/on (calls + data). I had a running theory that I needed to reinstall RUU to fix this issue, and I finally read a post recently that someone did this, and it fixed their issues, so i decided to FINALLY attempt this. My issue was I knew i needed to downgrade my f/w to do this. My phone is originally ROGERS, but I have superCID, and I have flashed the AT&T 1.85 RUU, so I believe my phone is now essential an AT&T version.

When I tried to dd from the instructions in this thread, I like others just had blank lines where I read I should see something like 1.00.000.00 or so(might not be correct syntax here). I decided to go ahead and try the process anyways without modding these partitions.

My next issue was, after relocking my phone, I kept getting the scary line "Security Warning" when i loaded the bootloader. Through reading this thread and MANY others, I fixed this by staying in bootloader fastboot mode, and fastboot erase cache. When i reboot to bootloader the "security Warning would come back". I read somewhere in here (I think) to try, fastboot reboot-bootloader. When I did this, I was still locked, but the "Security Warning" at top of bootloader was finally gone.

From here, I loaded up AT&T RUU .exe and ran through the process without a hitch!

This thread doesn't seem to be too active, but I found it helpful, I would have had a brick if i didn't read all 12 pages of this thread, along with the many others. Also I know others suggest before locking to put back stock recovery and stock boot.img, this probably would have worked for me also, and gotten rid of security warning issue...but the way i did this seemed a quicker.

Anyways, to anyone who might have had the same issue as me, hopefully what I have summed up might help. I am not sure my original signal drop issue is fixed yet, because it hasn't been long enough, but from what I read it should be.

I think One X has different partition structure, so I wouldn't be using this method if I were you.

does this work on htc one x
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
This is for the One XL only. Stay within your forum, straying into other forums is not the best idea as it leads to flashing things not intended for your device, which leads to bricking your device.

What are the paticular advantages/desadvantages related with changing your firmware
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
This is an obsolete guide, all it allows you to do is run an older RUU (which is normally not allowed by version check). This can now be accomplished with S-off.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xanda143:
I figured still wanna know it kinda confuses me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
The term "firmware" used in the title here might be misleading for you. The process described in this thread allows you to run an older RUU, which will replace the bootloader, radio, ROM, and a bunch of other things.

Are you thinking of the 2.15 "firmware" as described in resolving signal drop issues for Sense 5 ROMs? The term "firmware" in that instance refers to hboot, radio, kernel, WiFi, and media modules (but leaves the ROM alone). The 2.15 firmware plays better with Sense 5 ROMs. Once upgraded, there is little, if any, reason to downgrade. If this is the "firmware" you are referring to, it really has nothing to do with this old thread.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xanda143:
Oh so these combined are what is referred to as the firmware well I haven't had any particular issues other than I think the battery is dying faster than stock ics. Maybe I would upgarade my radio as I think the signal could be better but nothing to note is their are no consequences to upgrading could u link me so I can do a full upgrade
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
The term "firmware" really means close to nothing. Its just a type of software stored on consumer electronics. Your washing machine, cable box, or car can (and often do) have firmware.

In the past, the work "firmware" was often used interchangeably with ROM. More recently, the word "firmware" has been used on this forum to refer to all the modules (hboot, radio, WiFi, media modules)

except

the ROM deployed with the Sense 5 OTA. If you are looking for the 2.15 firmware associated with Sense 5, its not really what is being discussed in this thread.

To install the 2.15 "firmware" (hboot and associated radio, WiFi, and media modules that go along with Sense 5) go here (see under "OPTIONAL" in 1st post): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2423735

Or here (see under "RECOMMENDED" under 1st post): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2331373

SuperCID and s-off are required to install 2.15 firmware.

The only "consequence" I can think of, is that not all AOSP ROMs are compatible with hboot 2.15 (although some of the more frequently updated AOSP ROMs have been updated to be compatible). But since s-off is required to install the 2.15 firmware, you can always downgrade later, if needed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] twistedddx:
The terms firmware, software, operating system etc are old PC terms that dont translate directly to new devices like TV, phones or even new PCs.

But all of them are just "code", the names are just trying to describe certain pieces of code.

Updates to code tend to improve things, eg make it faster, more reliable, do new features etc. But sometimes the changes dont work nicely for everyone, many dont like change, sometimes stability and performance improvements are linked to how you use the device.

Firmware - for dedicated hardware, flashed to chip, not for general users, has specific procedures to update, has a much higher risk of bricking the device if a change/update fails.

Software - stored on HDD, installable by the user, interface the user uses, relatively safe to change/update and user fixable if it screws up. The operating system falls within this also.

In older mobiles and TVs everything was called "firmware".

The device was considered by users as a single dedicated piece of hardware, the code was understood to be stored on a flash chip(not a HDD) and users could not easily change/update the code.

As time went on phones, tv's update code started to get easier and easier to access and it became clear to users that it was not a single blob of code but instead pieces intended for individual dedicated bits of hardware.

Now as users we can install apps on phones and tvs.

So the terms for mobiles and tvs are maturing as users understand that it is not 1 magic chip running a single bit of magic code inside the phone or tv but instead just a computer with many dedicated pieces of hardware.

Everything is on flash storage these days so we can cross that term off the list, but the others mostly still stand.

Firmware is code for dedicated hardware, software/apps for small user stuff, operating system for the main bit of software that is running the show.

Sometimes makers of tvs and mobiles that do not really agree with users toying with individual parts still refer to the whole package of firmware/OS/software as "firmware".
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xanda143:
Thanks very much I think I get it fully now. Seeing as this is xda tho and we have proven the term firmware is Idk obsolete maybe we shouldn't use it anymore it causes so much confusion
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
I agree. But the alternative would be to talk about the list of modules (hboot, WiFi, radio, media, boot.img, possibly others) which isn't very practical. Or invent some new term, and convince everyone else to use it, too.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macnow30pl:
I got annoying and strange problem. I've been running Andromedus Test Builds, but after 75 bulid I lost wifi, so I installed CM9 beta5 and everything was fine. Today camcorder did force exit and didn't want to run properly. Did nandroid, upgrade to beta6 w/ kernel 7 and lost wifi additionally. Then did recover of beta 5. Nothing changed. Now I'm running again Andromedus Test Build, but very low number - 64. And it seems to work right. But why, for sake, any new upgrade goes crazy? Any ideas?

Have been trying different kernels. DZ unlocked by htcdev (so every one must be upgrading manually).

Hope my english is good enough to understand me:rolleyes:
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Those are still beta builds - expect bugs if you use them
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blk_jack:
What do you mean by lost wifi? It doesn't toggle or just doesn't find your network?

Also, I assume you're doing full wipes between roms as the test builds are odexed and the cm9 unofficial rom isn't. If you don't wipe you're gonna be boned..

I try to restore my phone from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=26039594

but I got failure after trying the T-mobile ICS update file.

It comes up like this on screen:

" error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip

(Status 7)"

I have many ways try to wipe and restore data before and after the update file from sd card.

bootloader/ kernel is 0A.6C one screen

I have try different ways for 6 hours with no luck, grrrrr

My phone is now bricked, maybe i must sendt him to rep...:(

Helpfor a possible solution will good. Thanks

Sorry for my bad english

Edit: I was on T-Mobile ICS before I try to flash the new ICS EU
[Motorola Droid RAZR] HSD-Pilot:
What have you done after that?

Gesendet von meinem XT910
[Motorola Droid RAZR] TheMask1:
In this morning I try to flash the new ICS EU again.

I Fastboot flash the boot_ne.img and ffastboot flash the system.img.

But got failure: error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip

(Status 7) when I try to update ICS from sd card.

After that I have try to restore too T-mobile version with no luck
[Motorola Droid RAZR] HSD-Pilot:
Just in mind > You got 2 Update zips on your SD now. You tried the right one for the new Leak?

Gesendet von meinem XT910
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
You must wipe cache, then install the zip again. Of course you must flash the new leak, not T-Mo.

Edit: Otherwise you could extract the t-Mo ICS zip to your harddrive. The pick the cdt.bin_signed, devtree_signed, and all mbm-files and flash them via moto-fastboot. Then flash the t-mo 2.3.6 system_signed again and reboot into recovery, perform a full wipe and cache wipe. Then apply the ICS update.zip.

Or if you want to try the newest leak, just do the same steps using the 2.3.6 26 fastboot and the new ICS zip.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stangri:
So this is a way to go to a newer ICS leak from the T-Mo leak? Just flash the zip from recovery after wiping /cache?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Read my edit above. But in normal case you must not wipe anything, just flash the system_signed from the 26 fastboot and then apply the update zip from the new leak.

Edit: Also the boot_new.img has to be flashed before applying the update.

Here it is: http://www.mediafire.com/?rh4flyvuo5lej9w
[Motorola Droid RAZR] TheMask1:
Yes I know about that , and have format the SD card i tried again:(
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Hey mate, I've tried by myself now. I got the same error like you described. Then I did directly a cache wipe and it succeeded!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] TheMask1:
I try again and again here, Must have a look at the battery status in between. Charge it from exit fastboot mode.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SoulGraphicsBrand:
Hey mate. Have you lost the root permissions? Could you create a step by step?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] TheMask1:
I tried also to flash the boot_new.img with sdk tools.

But got this failure:(bootloader) Preflash validation failure

Put the etrj fastboot on your Desktop and use the Windows Terminal (cmd)

There is already a step-by-step in the other thread wehere you can get the files. And I had no root before so there wasn't anything to loose :) If you running on rooted leak, you shouldn't flash this one. Search the forums, there is one guy who successful flshed the ICS nandroid backup to his device. This will persist your root.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stangri:
Thanks, got the boot_new.img you've linked, but just to be safe (and because I'm confused by the OTA numbering) can you please post a link to the newest OTA I can grab the system_signed from and then use it for the update from recovery?

Also, should I temp unroot and then re-root with the rootkeeper as with the T-mo 4.0.4 OTA update? Is there other way to keep root?

BTW, I've seen you refer to the .26 fastboot (and saying it doesn't have the best radio for Germany where I am at the moment), but the latest leak I've seen mentioned in the other thread is Blur_Version.672.180.17.XT910.Retail.en.EU (Tue May 22 17:20:36 CST 2012). Is it the same build as .26?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] HSD-Pilot:
Sorry, hit the Thanks Button in Tapatalk :rolleyes:

The Radio seems to be better on this ICS. I was on 651.167.26 for an while and the Phone quality was not really good. Tested it today on the Leak and all seems to be fine now.

you need the system_signed from the 651.167.26 to flash the new Leak.

Flash the boot_new.img & the system_signed in AP Fastboot and after that boot in Moto Recovery and flash the Leak.

http://www.handy-faq.de/forum/motorola_razr_forum/249903-motorola_ics_leak_retail_22_05_2012_a.html

Maybe it helps..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] TheMask1:
YES YES I finished with flashing the new OTA update eu ICS: Blur_Version.651.167.26.XT910.Retail.en.EU

System version 672.180.17.XT910 on my phone.

This is what i do to solved my flashing problems:

1. Used Andriod SDK tool to flash boot_new.img

Command: fastboot flash boot boot_new.img

2. Flashed the SPDREM_U_01.6.5.1-167_SPU-15-M2-3_SIGNEuropeAustraliaEMEA_USASPDRRTGB_HWp2b_Service1FF_fastboot

with Kholks:

EternityProject's RSD Alternative for flashing OFFICIAL Motorola ROMs

Was some failure during the flashing, but system_signed was flashed. .

3. Then I try to install OTA update Blur_Version.651.167.26.XT910.Retail.en.EU directly but failed.

- Then I erased cashe, tried agian, but failed.

- At last I Wipe data and restore then install the update with succes.

I'M so Happy now.

Hi!!

Today i search on ebay for a cool case and i find original housing in white and grey!!! But... are too expensive :s about 50 US

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-Ba...720987?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3f179724db

This is the cheapest that i found with worldwide shipping (im from chile, thats why my english sucks).

Cheers!

Hhahaha i will buy one to test it and give to xda community some info about it.
[HTC One X] hanvie:
So, has anyone bought one of these? My HOX fell down on hard asphalt a few days ago and the white housing got dents on three corners. After I got a proper pouch I would like to replace it because I plan to use the phone for at least two years. To be honest, I feel a little uncertain about ordering stuff on eBay from Chinese people. But so far I haven't seen an alternative.
[HTC One X] KLUVJ:
WOW...wat you got against the Chinese bro. I admit that China does make cheap ripoffs of the real deal. But if the titles says its legit, you can buy it, and if you dont think its legit, just ask for moneyback.. Why you gotta make this so racist

[HTC One X] hanvie:
Hey, no offense intended. I've got nothing against the Chinese in general, e.g. I've got a very cool Chinese colleague. But I wondered if it is so easy to get your money back from a guy in China if he sells you a crap or fake product when you live in Europe. I would have asked the same if the housing had been offered by someone from Argentina or South Africa, simply because it's a different country far away and I have no experience with ordering from there. Calling this racist is nonsense.

[HTC One X] boyceuk:
interesting. I've been waiting to see the inside of the case. Some places have been saying the body is manufactured by machining but that looks a lot more like an injection moulded part. Maybe a small mount of post machining / polishing.

My white One X was replaced under insurance, but they replaced it with the black one. They won't exchange it because it's deemed as a 'cosmetic' issue, which apparently isn't covered under their replacement policy.

At least I have another option by replacing the housing.
[HTC One X] the guitarist:
i'm actually more concerned about the quality of those battery covers, are they the same as the original ?! you don't want to get all scratched up and the coating starts to peel off or something
[HTC One X] ORStoner:
They are made by HTC
[HTC One X] definiteform:
Hmm. I'm quite happy with my black HOX, and it really matches nice with my black metal slim case; however, there's something neat about that white phone cover. Having both would be neat to switch between the two whenever you feel like it.

As previously confirmed, they're 100% HTC parts so they're not knockoffs. I'd recommend picking one up if you have the spare cash for a matching case as well.
[HTC One X] wineds:
I don't they are made by htc. More likely Chinese clones. Over the years I have bought a lot of housings and back shells for various phones on Ebay. None of them were a perfect fit. Some were better than others. its a bit of a lottery I think
