So after checking into some things I tried going a different route..

I downloaded Nils' Business ICS 4.0.3 Sense 3.6 (ICS Latest) (Aroma Installer).. followed the instructions.. installed with S-ON etc.. everything seemed fine.. NOW it won't stop rebooting after I configured Gmail & my work E-mail.. I can't boot into the bootloader menu unless I remove the SD card because it tries to flash the PH98IMG.zip as soon as it loads..

SO what to do next?? HBOOT I have the following information

UNLOCKED

VIGOR PVT SHIP S-ON SL

HBOOT-2.11.0000

Radio-0.95.00.1118r/0.95.0.1223r

OpenDSP-v10.6.0.7611.00.0919

eMMC-boot

Oct 6 2011, 15:43.22

HELP please!! :) :eek:
[HTC Rezound] ericsignals:
.make sure you install the kernel and the gb firmware patch...these 2 things missing will cause bootloops .

If you have issues ask in Nils thread and I am sure he will help you out. I have been s off and on ics firmware for awhile prior to the aroma install method. Otherwise I could help you out more :(

Edit: you will want to select the first 3 boxes on the aroma install screen...Rom...kernel...gb firmware patch

Not sure how the installer works after that...but that's a start.

Edit2: you are currently on gb firmware, in the future if you run a gb Rom you will need to flash the gb kernel for the Rom. Any ics based rims will require the ics kernel AND the firmware patch. Without the firmware patch your sd card won't show up properly. The wrong kernel will end up in boot loops. Hope this helps explain things a bit.
[HTC Rezound] mmmmpsi:
Thank you very much for the help... I really thought I was on ICS firmware.. I know this sounds stupid but isn't Android version 4.0.3 ICS??

OH WAIT it just hit me.. :) So my ROM is 4.0.3 but the kernel is still GB.. I gotcha.. so of course my next question is.. can I upgrade to ICS firmware without S-OFF or is that a requirement???

I think what I'll end up doing is just flashing GB ROM but curious what would be needed to get to ICS firmware and can I get back again?
[HTC Rezound] ericsignals:
You can upgrade to ics firmware (via ics ruu). However with s on, you can only run the ruu you are currently on and/or newer versions/leaks. With s off you can run any ruu you like.

Basically you never ran an ics ruu, so your firmware is gingerbread. You can run either gb or ics. With a gingerbread Rom, you would flash Rom and kernel. With ics Roms, you'll need to flash Rom, kernel, and firmware patch.

If you decide to upgrade and run a ics ruu it will upgrade your hboot, radios, and change the mount point for the sd card. The mount point change is the reason for the firmware patch. After running an ics ruu you will have ics firmware. Running a ics Rom, you'll flash Rom and kernel. If you change mind and want to go to a gb Rom, you'll need Rom, kernel, and firmware patch.

So depending on which version or way you go depends on the method of flashing a Rom. Firmware is independent of roms, and the only easy way to change firmware is via a RUU.

Supposedly the ota is coming soon, supposedly the latest leak is the ota, supposedly the s off exploit will not be able to be patched.

I decided to s off...there's many threads with lots of info...so if you decide to go that route take time, read, and read some more. It's not too hard just take your time and don't get frustrated.

Once s off, most roms flash the kernels automatically, saving you a step. You can also run any ruu you want. Ruu is like a factory image that wipes the phone and upgrades radio, etc....basically it will be like you first got the phone and turned it on.

Everyone has different experiences with radios, some are betterfor some, others worse. Overall the new ics firmware seems to be better on battery and network speed for me at least.

There's many ways to proceed....however most roms that are being worked are ics based...and will be more so when the official ics ota hits.
[HTC Rezound] mmmmpsi:
Sure enough!! I went with a GB ROM CleanROM GBE 1.7.5 and it is working perfectly.. I'll decide if I want to move forward with anything else.. I really liked the way the ICS ROMs ran so I man end up moving to that firmware in the future but thank you very much with the explanations that REALLY helped a lot!!

Have a great 4th!!
[HTC Rezound] ericsignals:
Anytime...best of luck and have a happy 4th yourself :)
[HTC Rezound] BBEgo:
ICS is the way to go, and for it to run properly you should run the latest RUU leak. This will give you the correct firmware. Once you flash the recovery of your choice back onto your phone and re-root, you really should S-off. Amon-Ra is the best initial Recovery choice, because it'll root anything, right there in recovery. S-off simplifies EVERYTHING. From there, you can flash the ICS Rom of your choice, and not have any of the issues you've been reporting.

With S-off, you can flash whatever radio you want, put a different boot-up splash screen on, and the kernel installs automatically when you flash a Rom.

It's a little time consuming, but it isn't difficult. There are threads from some very helpful guys here that explain how to do everything. So when you have some time, I suggest you just go for it. You'll be glad you did.

Best of luck,

BBEgo
[HTC Rezound] mmmmpsi:
I'm still a little leary on doing the S-OFF so I have a question on this.. What do you mean by this?? What has to match to be able to run ICS ROM's.. Are you saying the ICS Firmware version needs to match the ICS ROM?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ferchos:
I have a stock rom ics TF101 4.0.3 / rooted / kernel version 2.6.39.4 android @ Mercury # 1. Yesterday I bought the kernel manager for the OC. I tried 4 versions:

- Kernel-ICS-test16-OC1700-fb_275.zip

- Kernel-ICS-V22-OC1700-fb_607.zip

- Kernel-ICS-V22.6-OC1700-fb_645.zip

- Kernel-2-ICS-V1.1-OC1700-fb_28.zip

It reads, unzipping, flashing, rebooting. Optimizing applications. But, do not enable the CB and the kernel remains the same (2.6.39.4 android @ Mercury # 1)

Reinstall the Kernel Manager, same problem. Any ideas?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nullinvoid:
why don't you just flash it yourself in cwm?
[HTC One X] xchasa:
I've got both and gave my gs3 to an employee.

I disliked it.

Loving the One x.

Give it some time and you will also notice its downfalls. The honeymoon will be over.

1 fault??

Check their forum now after a few weeks of public testing. Looking more and more like the one x forum used to.

Your post would have been better off in the GS3 forum however...
[HTC One X] greyhulk:
It's going to be skewed in either forum. If I posted it there, The GS3 owners would be fully supportive. I see a lot of threads in here with people asking if they should switch to the GS3, so this seemed a more appropriate place.
[HTC One X] xchasa:
I understand. You will get flamers wherever these posts are created.

Glad you like the Galaxy.
[HTC One X] Scann69:
Thanks for the information. Guess i'll be getting an S3 for my wife :cowboy:
[HTC One X] dansharpy:
From general rules which is a sticky.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
yes but if you dont buy the HOX for its Tegra features

you didnt mention speed or gaming

so yea the GS3 might be better for so let me list my own negatives of it since i got hold of it for few days

- the incredibly annoying physical home button

- the horrible feel of the back side with its greasiness

- it simply has zero class compared to the look and feel of the HOX, it also feels bulkier in hand

- those pen-tile pixels

- the entire goofy style of the water drop sound and ring tones

- Touchwiz simply ruins ICS and doesn't give something in return unlike sense

- games not as impressive as our THD babies, ripetide was nothing compared to ours in terms of effects n speed (60fps on HOX)

- yes it has no lag on the launcher but it has its own kind of lags

what i liked

- the brushed fake metal material around the frame of the blue version is not bad actually, good enough to foul you

- the bigger proportion of the screen

- brute performance and gaming for non optimized like the stupid Gameloft catalog

- screen on times are better

and thats it for me, i rushed back to my 60fps Shadowgun THD + super dense SLC3 and instantly felt better :D

conclusion i didn't miss in it, in fact i wish my wife carries so i can enjoy its good side but never can replace my turbo charged beast, also conlcusion the SGS3 is a simpler out of box experience but the HOX with little modding effort shines
[HTC One X] det66:
I had a SGS3 all last week and sold it on Saturday . It was quick but it felt like a plastic toy ,far to light and not nice to hold and the screen isn't as good as my One X.

It will suit some people but no way I'd give up the solid feel of my One X in my hand for it
[HTC One X] greyhulk:
Your first three points are subjective. I find that it feels better in the hand than the One X, as do some other reviewers.

As I stated, the One X has a better screen, but people blow the pentile thing way out of proportion. I also don't agree that Touchwiz ruins everything. It does add some functionality with respect to contacts, smartdialer, etc. and arguably makes the interface more user-friendly for novice (or previous iPhone) users.

I don't play games on my phone. It's simply not a priority for me. I have an iPad for that. Tegra 3 games are nice, but I suspect the Tegra 3 will get left behind much as the Tegra 2 did.
[HTC One X] greyhulk:
Not that I'm surprised, as there are way too many rules for everything, but that's a ridiculous one. A post like this would not reach the target audience in Android general. It's much more relevant to current owners of either phone.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
many of your points and the fact you don't play games is also subjective

i thought you are innocently posting to tell us your feedback

and this is my feedback

why are you arguing again?
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
@Op, it's hard to find the correct section isn't?

@Moderators,

Can you please move another anoying thread to general section?

Thanks you very much!
[HTC One X] greyhulk:
It's called a discussion. Not every conversation is an argument just because both parties don't agree.
[HTC One X] greyhulk:
Troll much? Seriously, get a life.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
bottom line you post is in the wrong section

how can this be constructive thread if its meant to convince people to move to S3 in the HOX section

anyway its closing soon
[HTC One X] det66:
A few points you make there actually make sense to me now having the iPad and I take it you had an iPhone? .The SGS3 actually does feel like an Apple product it's the first thing that went through my head when I unboxed it .

One X to me feels a lot more solid and just a better build.

But I do hope you get plenty of enjoyment out of it :)
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
It's not trolling, wake up and use the correct section.

I've reported this thead.
[HTC One X] greyhulk:
Great. Now someone just needs to report you for being an asshat.

You would need to read a document the size of War and Peace to try to conform to all of the rules of where and how to post on this forum. If the mods want to move it, then fine. But I can do without your sarcasm and your non-clever quip about it being a "useless thread". If it's not relevant to you, then don't read it.
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
That's ok, I requested to move this thread but it would be even better to close it as many people opened a thread like this before you.

Use an existing thread I would recommend.
[HTC One X] greyhulk:
Since you seem to take this so personally and don't have anything better to do, I suggest you chill out. I'm sure there's another crusade you can join somewhere.

If this is somehow a duplicate, it isn't the first and won't be the last. Just take a deep breath. It'll be okay.
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
I don't need to take a deep breath.

It's not a crusade as well, and I think it's you who takes this personally.
[HTC One X] LakshayX:
Your id says it all ...Greyhulk...Hulk was green in color for sure but considering your PENTILE display no one can blame you..it must be appearing grey there coz the display has serious black clipping n color banding issues..all the blacks have grey patches on them...so be it..all hail GS3 n Greyhulk n the super amazing pentile display..Amen..
[HTC One X] greyhulk:
Wow. You really thought that one out. I'm impressed.

Unfortunately, you're wrong. The original Hulk was Grey. As was one of his subsequent personalities, known as Mr. Fixit. A little internet research would have gone a long way to helping you not look stupid.

Of course, it may be a literacy issue, since I clearly stated in my post that the HTC One X had a better screen. Still, google Image search is your friend. Type in "Grey Hulk" and you'll find lots of evidence that there was one.
[HTC One X] vincepg13:
This is why anyone who owns a GS3 unless they use HOX too equally should be BANNED from the HOX section.

Seriously we don't give a f*ck what one you think is better we got this phone for a reason and want to enjoy it but these pointless threads every bloody week is just ruining it
[HTC One X] greyhulk:
What ruins the thread is when people like you come in here and troll without reading. I clearly stated that I had both phones. I had both versions of the HTC One X for MONTHS before I got rid of them.

Threads like this are only pointless if you're a hardcore fanboy of either device. I'm being subjective, as I owned and liked both devices. Whether or not you take it personally is up to you.
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
Nope, what's ruin this thread is because it's posted in the wrong section.

Your not subjective because if you were you would have posted in General or Samsung section. ;)

You are just coming here to troll, that's my opinion.
[HTC One X] greyhulk:
YOU'RE.

Your opinion, much like your grammar, is flawed.
[HTC One X] det66:
This is just a troll thread .. picking up on grammar mistakes is a dead giveawy
[HTC One X] LakshayX:
So the earlier one was made for the cheap PENTILE Displays...so that people wont complaint of black clipping issues while watching on their phone..

Then the producers came across the gorgeous RGB display n they said "there is a gorgeous display in the market so let's move on n change the color of HULk to green "..n that's how we got a green HULk..

I may have looked stupid but you have actually done it..even Samsung's people will laugh if you tell them u went for s3 instead of HOX..samsung's CEO himself carries a HOX my friend..
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
Yep you are right, thanks for correcting me. ;)
[HTC One X] greyhulk:
It's not a troll thread unless you count the people trolling my original post. My original post stands and reads as subjective. Trolling trolls is a double negative. They cancel each other out.
[HTC One X] Laurentius26:
It's, read again.....
[HTC One X] Goku80:
guys either just report the thread or move on and do not post at all..the more you post the more flaming goes on...
[HTC One X] greyhulk:
I'm sorry that some of you can't see past your own bias. I'm really glad you like your One X and I did, too. I posted this post here because I used to own two and I used to read threads in here every day from people asking if they should switch to the GS3. I read all of the reported issues on the One X and sympathized with many of them. I was expecting fallout, flaming, trolling, because there are also a lot of people in here who love their One X and that's fine. But check yourself. I am not advocating anyone to switch to the GS3. I merely listed the positives and negatives of both from my perspective.

I'm truly sorry if your own bias blinds you to that fact. Try reading my post without the assumption that I'm trying to get you to switch devices and maybe you'll finally see how the original post was intended.

so I followed a tutorial and I change the CSC in KPE (ITV) (with csc changer) but I can't upgrade the phone (the android os version installed is 2.3.4)

and I cannot understand what rom is installed if it is rooted or not if it's official or not...

here some info of the phone

let me know if it's better to chage this rom or install a stock rom or root it and install a cyanogen
