[HTC One X] Sentinel196:
Hey guys,

I have an HTC__044 device which is unlocked and running a custom ROM with a custom boot.img. I am wanting to restore the phone to stock ROM so I can download the JellyBean OTA.

I've seen the procedure for returning to stock RUU, but I am not sure on the procedure for when you have a full Nandroid backup of your stock ROM.

Could someone please clarify?

I understand it to be as follows:

1. Boot in to recovery and restore Nandroid backup of original ROM

2. Flash stock boot.img extracted from RUU via fastboot (or boot.img from backup directory on SD card)

3. Flash stock recovery via fastboot (or recovery.img from backup directory on SD card)

4. relock bootloader via fastboot

5. Reboot phone and stock ROM will be recovered

6. Download and install OTA.

Have I missed anything? Do you really need to flash back to stock recovery? I don't really see the point of doing that?

Thanks :)
[HTC One X] smartzac:
U can try to relocked your bootloader and flashed the RUU for your device to return back to stock and waiting for JB updates.
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Yeah, looks good to me.

You don't need to relock it if you're just going to apply the OTA.

To apply OTA, you need stock recovery.
[HTC One X] Sentinel196:
Oh really? Cool!!

So I can just recover the NANDROID backup, and flash the boot.img then check it boots. then flash the stock recovery and download the OTA without re-locking?

I thought you had to lock the bootloader to get OTA updates as unlocked bootloader sets the CID to none, so no OTAs are detected, no?
[HTC One X] BenPope:
I've never tried it, but as far as I know, you don't need to lock it, updates are based on IMEI, not CID, and although CID can show as all 1s in some places, fastboot oem readcid should return the correct one.

However it takes about 5 seconds to lock it and just a few more to unlock it, so... Your choice.
[HTC One X] jigners:
If you have the Stock RUU your device shipped with, just go in fastboot, connect to pc and run the RUU.exe.

If not, the steps in first post looks like a good route to flash back to your original ROM.
[HTC One X] jorjino2000:
In my case it was shorter:

1. Restore nandroid backup (of the original ROM, did after root).

2. Fastboot oem lock

3. Run RUU

That's all.

You can try this too.

Regards.
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Well, the OP didn't ask for the RUU method and said he was aware of it.

What's wrong with:

fastboot oem lock

Run RUU

hello m using HOX And my device is running on CM 10 4.1.2 and i want back to stock like i buy phone from store and wan every official update automatically like i do when m running on stock rom so should i follow following steps is it correct or if i miss some. and i dnt want my device freeze or stuck in any stage so plz help me i have nanoroid backup

0.restore your nandroid backup from recovery

1.go to your sd card and grab the stock boot.img and recovery.img from the folder that contains the nandroid backup(clockworkmod)

2.flash both of them

3.enter your phone,use the app ota rootkeeper,and make a backup for your root,then select temporarily unroot..

4.reboot enter software updates...do the update thing..when it finishes

5.enter the app and select restore root

5.go to fastboot flash the recovery you like cwm or twrp
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
Before you do anything, the best thing to do is to check again what is the actual software version no.

Go to fastboot and type below command

fastboot getvar version-main

Tell us the no. written there

Then we talk about getting your ROM back to stock
[HTC One X] jimmy_135:

plz help me out of this m screwed from last 2 days
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
Yours is same as mine, CID HTC__044 and 3.14.707.24

When reading your thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2055377 I'm a little bit puzzled on why do you want to revert to stock as your device is already on JellyBean and there is no further OTA at the moment.

Here are three scenario that you may need to choose.

1) You just want to revert to stock ROM but you still need to root it.

a. Flash the stock boot.img attached here (That's the stock boot.img for 3.14.707.24)

b. Restore your nandroid backup

c. Reboot.. you are done .. you will have stock ROM but still on custom recovery in case you still need to play around like rooting the stock ROM or whatever you want to do.

2) You want to revert to stock ROM with everything complete stock with your nandroid backup.

a. Flash the attached stock boot.img

b. Restore your nandroid backup

c. Reboot to bootloader again

d. Flash the attached stock recovery.img (That's the stock recovery.img for 3.14.707.24)

e. Relock your bootloader with command "fastboot oem lock"

f. Reboot your device.. you are done.

3) You want to revert to stock with a RUU.

a) Download RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.14.707.24_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_296434_signed.exe from various site that you can it this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1543604 or you can download from where that I uploaded one : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=34971176&postcount=2487

b) Put your device in fastboot mode and relock your bootloader with command "fastboot oem lock"

c) In fastboot mode too, run the RUU and follow the updater instruction - next- next-update-blablabla until it finish

d) Complete the setup wizard, you are done.
[HTC One X] jimmy_135:
Thanks for ur quick reply forget about root in among them which is the safest method and i wan all update automatically....and i have boot.img and stockrecovery.img in my nanoroid back so can i use it and other thin i wan a gud battery life on my phone so what i do....
[HTC One X] BenPope:
The recovery from your backup is not stock.
[HTC One X] jimmy_135:
so what should i do Benpope
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
You have to flash the stock recovery.....the nandroid is taken with a custom recovery so the stock recovery is not included in the nandroid .... therefore you need the stock one :thumbup:

This is the 3.14 stock recovery

http://db.tt/C1SWP2ZJ
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
Mate... I even attached the stock recovery and stock boot.img for him above. I don't know whether he really read those I wrote.

So Jimmy, if you want automatic update like the stock ROM as you said; read again item 2 or item 3.
[HTC One X] jimmy_135:
k buddy let i do with ur stock.img and recovery.img hope everythin work fine and i choose item no 2 thanks buddy and how to i maximize battery life of my HOX

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Delirious17:
When the phone reaches 100% it seems a bright green light is stuck illuminated and a notification to unplug that cannot be swiped away. Is there a way to remove either of these once fully charged?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whmcal:
Have you tried pulling down the notification bar and then pressing clear? If this does not help, unplug the charger then try the same.

If that doesn't help, remove and then replace battery and see if you have same issue on a subsequent charge. Failing that, perform a factory reset. If that doesnt work, there might be a fault, exchange phone...

I bet someone on xda has a less convoluted solution though :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TML1504:
*deleted* sorry, got the question wrong...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedicemaster:
display -> LED indicator under settings is where you can control which types of event can trigger the LED.

as for the notification itself, that would probably require a modification to the system UI application.

and there's always the option "do what the error says" which is to unplug the power cable.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Delano.888:
I think I know what you mean, this happened to me:

-My N2 was charged 100%.

-I took the charger out of the wall.

-I took the cable out of the N2.

After that, the N2 always seems to think it's still charging. So, take the cable out of the device first! BTW this is also in the manual.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ez2remember:
Hello, I just wondered if it was normal to get around 60mah drain while on standby.

I only have my yahoo mail account retrieving email every hour.

I don't understand where this high drain is coming from or whether this is normal. My beloved HD2 only had 3 to 7mah on standby.

Monitoring with battery monitor widget.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zero.fx:
I seem to feel the same way... Maybe I am just being paranoid.

Unplugged from charger at for 1:40 mins and dropped down to 94% already.

Screen time only been on for 23 mins and have only made 2 short calls. One call is voip and the other is normal...

Is this normal?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avetny:
Ok... Wipe catch, wipe dalwik wipe battery.

Do not disturb the charging process.

Unplug the cable only after fool charge (only when is green light is on).

Also I always restart the phone after full charged.

Check this out: 1% in 1 hour in heavy using!!!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zero.fx:
I assume you mean wiping the cache?? But won't I have to wipe for each application?

How to wipe dalwik? Can this be done on a non-root stock phone.

Wipe battery?? You mean recalibration??
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D4rkShadow:
for me,battery is draining at a rate of 1% per 4~5 mins while watching videos at 30-40% screen brightness.guess it's normal ? i'm little bit paranoid since i moved from a old nokia phone,which used to last for days and days....
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chivalryyyy:
so,,, you could watch a film of say.. 1 1/2 hours long.... and still be on 85% battery... and your not happy?????? sheeesh..

I get 2 hours of general internet use from my S2 and that drains my battery to 15% !!!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boodies:
what i noticed. the battery would last longer as the numbers went down
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jujuburi:
It's Android for God's sake. One day it will be 10 mAh, another day 60 or more, one has to get on with it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GezDixon:
I did a test watching a youtube video 2hrs long with everything on (wifi and location on with no power saving) and after 90min it would have drained 14/15% so 10hrs video is excellent, compared to my old iphone 4 which after 30min 3g is down to 70%

only problem I have is getting 5% drop in 10 hrs on standby (power saving on, wifi and location off)

im on the uk o2 fw ( XXALIJ ) BB (XXALIH), would the official stock be better?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sush143555:
Hi friends who ever bought the t-mobile galaxy note can u try this option to check whether u can change the settings for data connection .I have a galaxy s3 where I used to this option to switch off lte to conserve battery .it worked fine.if this process works and u get the options to change connection type then you are good to buy t-mobile galaxy note 2 to use lte on at&t because I heard both t-mobile and at&t note versions has same chip inside but lte is temporarily disabled in t-mobile version .

1) With phone on, take off back cover and press your SIM card so it releases from the spring. It won't come all the way out as it's blocked by the battery. This seems fine - I didn't bother trying to force it out as I didn't want to break anything...

2) Once you see the message that the SIM card is removed, go to the dialer and dial *#2263#

3) You should see a menu with band selections. The current setting is "Automatic". If you switch to "GSM All", you will be EDGE (2G). If you switch to "WCDMA All", you will be on HSPA+ (3G, though AT&T and others call it 4G) and you will have lte too

4) Press the SIM card back into place until it clicks. For whatever reason the phone will not recognize it until you reboot. Upon reboot you should see your new setting in effect.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shook187:
Great, let me do this now so I'll ready when Tmobile turns on LTE in 2 years :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] konceptz:
Fwiw I believe you can do this without rebooting.

At least when switching the gsm radio bands. I often check 1900 mhz in my area of nyc by doing #*2263#

I have done this for Lte and it just says no service. Perhaps I should get at&t to show up but this far it hasn't worked.

I'm interested in what other people know about this!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] deathpulse:
If I click the SIM it doesn't come out enough (hits the battery) to tell me SIM removed :(. No dice on that approach for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] VIIRU§:
Lmao be cool dude he just posting his findings. Tmobile told me we would need to get a lte sim when it becomes available anyway.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sush143555:
you dont have to remove the sim totally just push it it will come out and it show up on the phone that sim is not connected .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jerry D:
The same thing happened to me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sush143555:
try this i have made tutorial of how u can access the option .if u get those options on the note 2 .then u r good to use at&t on t-mobile galaxy note 2 .you can reverse the process again with the same procedure .please post the screenshots of your note 2 after changing the options .here is the link

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jonb39:
You can select bands from any Samsung Galaxy device (that I've tried) by entering this code into the dialer. *#*#197328640#*#*

A menu pops up which give you lots of options. To get to band options, choose Debug Screen, Phone Control, Network Control, Band Selection. Don't get excited, every device I've seen has an LTE option in there, but that doesn't mean your phone has LTE hardware.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Wallcrawler:
Another for the SIM not coming out far enough. Also, with the *#197328640#, the 'Debug Screen' was under UMTS.

My GN2 is carrier unlocked and I have the SIM from my AT&T iPhone4 in it. I'm not sure that SIM would even be LTE compatible anyhow since all I had with the iPhone4 was 3G.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] xtte:
confirmed that it does have LTE after debug screen, showing UMTS, CDMA, LTE, SIM, run EFS SYNC() as options
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ekerbuddyeker:
Does that mean you have LTE working on At&t now???

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] geoff5093:
If the battery blocks the SIM, can't you just take the SIM out, boot up the phone with no SIM, and do the same thing?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] play2lose:
If this T-Mobile version physically HAS the LTE radio that AT&T uses, does anyone know what it would take to get it working on AT&T's LTE?

Well first we _still_ need to get a working lte at&t sim card into the phone and see what happens.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scrooge276:
I have one, of course not with me. Will try tonight and report back.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scrooge276:
Just tried it. LTE is an option but I can figure out if there is anyway to enable it. Open for suggestions?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] play2lose:
I have a working AT&T LTE sim in my T-Mobile Note 2. I came from the AT&T Galaxy S3.

Unfortunately haven't figured out how to get LTE working, tried the options here but they result in a circle with a cross through it instead of any signal. There's also an option under APN called "bearer" and you can set that to "unspecified" or "LTE", but when set to LTE the APN doesn't work and it will automatically select a different APN once you try to apply it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] resident0915:
Are your guys' phones unlocked that are trying with the ATT LTE sim cards? I unlocked my phone a couple days ago by booting it up with a Verizon LTE Micro Sim to get to the unlock screen and enter the code, but I wasn't aware at the time of the menus being discussed.

Yep mine is unlocked. Didn't work with my AT&T sim UNTIL I unlocked it.

edit nevermind I see i was not typing it right I got it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Vince211:
Well iam no expert but I did speak with a samsung rep in tech support and asked him about this very thing . He told me that lte anntena is difrent from H+. Idonr know if there is any truth to that or not but would love get one off the experts here to shed the light on this for sure
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] play2lose:
Yeah LTE is separate from HSPA+, but the T889 apparently has BOTH antennas.

Anyone have any more info on this? Got my T889 brand new sealed for $550 on craigslist VS $700 after tax for the AT&T Galaxy Note 2...really hope we can get LTE working on this thing!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JaguarXT:
It is *#197328640#
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkshado:
I had posted this in Q&A earlier but it didn't seem to elicit much response there...

I don't have a Note II yet, so keep in mind that the following is a complete shot in the dark, untested, and so on.

To try this out you'll need:

a SIM-unlocked, rooted SGH-T889/T889V

a text editor

adb

a known working LTE micro-SIM with proper plan provisioning

LTE coverage

Re-applying the CSC will factory reset the phone. Keep in mind that it may also relock it.

Background: I've been following all the T889 LTE discussion for the last few days; I'm using Virgin Mobile Canada (which would normally make the I317M my model of interest) but I also have a T-Mobile USA SIM card for stateside travel, and wouldn't mind being able to switch to Videotron either if the need arose. So AWS HSPA is not entirely a luxury. I also have a modicum of experience with CSC modding. So I decided to download the Odin-flashable ROM for the T889V from Sammobile and poke around.

It turns out there's a line that reads: <CscFeature_Setting_DisableNetworkMode>lte</CscFeature_Setting_DisableNetworkMode> in /system/csc/others.xml and other others.xml files located in the GLW, MCT and VTR CSC folders, in the case of the T889V ROM. (Those folders are in the cache.img file, in the /recovery folder, in the sec_csc.zip update file.)

Could this be it? Maybe this only unhides some settings. But I figured I might as well post about it and see where things go. What I'd try:

Remove the lines in the "live" files on the phone.

Reboot.

Check network related settings for LTE.

Possibly re-apply CSC as per this post.

Keep me informed,

Darkshado
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] play2lose:
Just sold my T889 yesterday to get an AT&T Note 2 cause I want LTE or I could've tried this! Anyone wanna give it a go so I know if I sold my phone for no reason or not? lol

Well mostly likely Any user with a T889 Wont see these GLW MCT VTR CSC Folders. those are just the aws carriers in canada. im with GLW now using a tmo note 2. so i cant help you here bud.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkshado:
I just checked, turns out that the setting isn't present in the TMO ROM...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] _Dennis_:
Ok so in terminal type:

su

am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.sec.modem.settings/com.sec.modem.settings.network.NetworkSettings

This gets a window to select network type (Global, GSM, WCDMA, HEDGE, LTE, CDMA)

su

am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.sec.modem.settings/com.sec.modem.settings.network.BandSelection

This gets a list of bands oddly 1700 AWS does not show up. Edit: I am thinking they programed LTE band 4 to be WCDMA AWS for the 1700/2100 band for our 3G/4G service. Not sure if it is even possible though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jpeps3:
What band are we right now in tmobile ?

Can we change to faster but not lte ??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] _Dennis_:
Tmo has 2 bands most of the nation is on AWS which is 1700 up 2100 down. Some areas are on AWS and 1900 MHz bands. These are for 3G/4G.

---------- Post added at 08:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:54 PM ----------

Appears the settings dont stick as they should. Says restart phone, they revert after a reboot, atleast for the band select one

videotron t889v

Ok,

So I tried to get this LTE thing working and out of luck.

1. went to dialer put *#197328640#

2. click UMTS

3. Debug screen

4. Phone control

5. network control

6. band selection

7. Lte band preference

I am currently with FIDO and have an LTE simcard. But the LTE network doesn't work. I can always switch it back to wcdma band preference and it connects again.

Anyone know if I am doing something wrong or do I have to wait till Videotron has LTE and then it would work?? even when Im with FIDO?

kind of confused right now... cause for some it works for others it doesn't...

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkshado:
Quick update: my phone is currently bootlooping, with apparently no good EFS backup (I found this thread *after* things went to hell).

I did get LTE to work by flashing the I317M modem through CWM. I did not think to check if my IMEI was still okay then. Either way, trying to revert back to the T889V modem messed up the phone pretty badly.

Be careful.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] djdanska:
Tried that on my t-mobile note 2, rebooted and did a network scan and at&t shows up in the network scan. Not t-mobile. I'm in san diego. I'm assuming that it's seeing at&t LTE.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Byangmang:
This is very interesting, can you elaborate on what you did?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Darkshado:
In short: I flashed the I317M modem with an update zip, made my speed test, returned to CWM, flashed the T889V modem with a similarly made update zip, rebooted, and am stuck in a bootloop since.

slightly off topic--is tmobile note 2 the one that is the best or verizon's note?
