To all those getting stuck trying to flash hboot. If you watch your console/terminal output you'll notice a message from emmc_recover saying:

Using chunksize 24576

Please connect device

Error flashing HBOOT!!

The problem is emmc_recover trying to detect the phone using the output of lsusb, it looks for the device id "05c6:9008"

So far I've been able to confirm that the device is showing up, but most likely due to timing, emmc_recover is not seeing it.

This check is done before anything is flashed to p12 (HBOOT).

Restoring p4 uses a different process,which is why you are still able to unbrick.

I've (mostly) written a diagnostic tool to try and figure out the timing problem. Hopefully I'll have time in the next day or 2 to complete it. I could use a few additional testers. If you've experienced this problem and would like to help, send me a PM. I'll probably start testing on Friday. (NOTE: All this will do is gather information while trying to run jet. I'll use that info to determine how to resolve this problem)

I went to the Evita unbrick thread and finished.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dowenprs:
Hi, I just attempted to use the Jet tool and I too am stuck at the Error flashing HBOOT!! At this point I need to move over to the unbricking Evita thread correct? Couple of questions, so I just close my current Terminal window that the Jet tool is running in, and then do I just start at the very beginning of the unbrick thread and just work my way down that thread?

Thanks for the help!

Dan
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] inphamous36:
Just close the current terminal window , reopen it. Change directory to jet then type sudo . /jet -u. Thus should restore your backed up partition, successfully unbricking you.

Thank you for the help! Worked perfectly.

Hey if you downgrade to that HBOOT version can you install JB ROM because they require a new version of HBOOT?

Open terminal.

cd to working directory.

$ chmod +x jet

$ sudo ./jet

and im using ubuntu live cd
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] muddyblues6392:
And the easiest way I found is just save to your home folder. Navigate to it through the terminal( type ls if you need to know where you are) and run those commands mentioned above. Make sure your phone is on and has debugging enabled. And is connected via USB. You shouldn't have any problems like bricking. Just follow the commands and instructions and let the tool do its thing. Patience will go along way.

hi, i downgrading my HBOOT to 1.09 , but still can not change my radio 0.20os.32.09.15_10.113.32.28L, help meeee pleeeaaase ( How i can change it((((:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

Just successfully downgrade 1.14 to 1.09.

I tried this process last night with a ubuntu 12.10 bootable usb drive. I kept getting the Error Hboot error.

Today, I tried downgrading again with a 12.04 LiveCD. It completed successfully.

I think there is a problem with first waking the device before it flashes the hboot. I followed a tip by reading the comments here, by pressing the power button. Everything went OK until the HBoot flash, then I got the hboot error again. I held the power button for 3-5 seconds and let go. After 2 hboot flashing errors, the program started to work.

This is just my experience and what I think went wrong and how I fixed it.

Thanks for this downgrade tutorial yamma.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] SouL Shadow:
Great. This pretty much confirms that the hboot flash error is due to a timing issue. Now to figure out how to remedy this within JET.

My apologies to everyone who's been waiting patiently for my help. I've been super busy at work and the little free time at home has been needed for day to day tasks. All issues will be addressed as soon as possible. I just need a chunk of time when my brain isn't completely fried.

The script can't find adb. Check the folder you unzipped jet in to. If it's there then chances are your running a 64bit linux distro without the 32bit compatibility libs. Downloading and installing those libs will vary by distro. If your using a live cd then you'll need to download a 32bit live cd instead.

Just a quick question, (if I don't start rambling on that is, oh no here I go) What will downgrading my hboot allow me to then do that my current hboot (1.11.0000) won't allow? And as for what I would like it to do for me is (in order of importance) 1. Remove my simlock so I can use any network, and 2. S-OFF my phone so I can in turn achieve the first goal and say F-OFF to Rogers. Whom after getting me to shell out the $50 (that ended up costing $67 for prepaid airtime) and my a large chunk of my sanity said no after 1hr30 or so then click before talking to the "Unlock Team" (One guy and an ex SAS bodyguard team to protect the poor sod) then another 1hr 47mins (I timed that one) they finally said nope sorry sir and thanks for the CASSHHHHH *****! let me put you on hold so you can ask for your money back. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA

twitch twitch... Oh and I forgot the weird step whereupon you get through to the "Here's a Confirmation Number to State That You Can Unlock The Device, Have Another 45mins of Hold Time Team".

By now I have almost lost the will to live and you guys are my only hope ObiWan Kenobe's sorry wrong movie. Would've been a pretty easy to solve murder mystery though had I been in the Rogers store at the time though as I would have been still inserting fake floor model phones into the staff and anyone who dared say "calm down sir I'm sure if you call customer service they will sort it for you" Anyway there I go rambling.

Erm... if you are still with me can you let me know if downgrading will help me turf Rogers from my phone (instead of the degrading I can get from calling Rogers to allow them to bend me over and give my own hboot a good.... Ok I think I gone on enough, Thanks for any help and have a great day.

Here's my poxy edit so i can subscribe, I hate being a nub and having to stuf like this because I don't know how to. I shouldn't be let anywhere near a phone with a screwdriver (pentalobe, see I did learn sumthin) let alone a computer.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] PUfelix85:
1. No.

2. No, not yet s-off is still a work in progress.

Lower hboot will let you flash roms, splash screens, kernels, and boot images. This is for those who have 1.14 because it locks them out of these fun things.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] machv5:
My hboot version number is 1.11.0000 according to bootloader screen. And I have unlocked the phone via HTC website. And have successfully flashed cm10-20121116-NIGHTLY-evita to it and the aokp milestone evita ROM to it as well. I can't wait till someone figures out the simlock for this device I know it is only a matter of time.

I don't know what u meant by "I also don't know if that was an option for the hoxl..." And on a similar vein I was wondering if it would be possible to say buy an unlock code from rogers for my EVO3D gsm and then spoof my imei to then use that phone's code to unlock my OneX? Or is that idea likely to fail? I have already unlocked the EVO3D GSM's bootloader, S-OFF, simlock. And thanks for your quick reply.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
If you want to simunlock your phone you need to go buy the code
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] machv5:
I already tried that as I mentioned in my first post to this thread, they told me at the time I bought it that I could, and when I bouhgt the airtime to do so, and all the way up until I reached the last guy in the chain. Even when I called back the next day after I calmed down enough to talk to them, they said I don't know why they said that sir, there's no reason for them not doing so, says you can here. Just a moment... hold... Ok when the customer who got the phone originally pays her last months bill then we will do it. Well I have since found out that she owes them $279. And had they told me that they would not unlock the phone even after paying them as they asked me to I would not have bought the phone in the first place or paid for the prepaid airtime.

I am looking into a lawsuit possibility for the fraud that they perpetuated mainly because I have nothing better to do right now and I believe that I do have a case, as they lied to me about the product that they offered. Like telling me they would unlock the phone if I paid the money and even went as far as giving me a confirmation number to verify that they would. Then to refuse to unless other conditions that were not outlined to me.

I paid them for a product, the unlock code in this case and paid for it in full and then was not given that product unless the former owner pays them for money they owe on their bill. If it were a house or car would be cut and dry correct? For instance if you buy a house that you got in a forclosure you don't after paying for it have to act as a collection agency and get the former owner of the house to settle their mortgage obligations do you, or wait until they pay the mortgage before being able to get the house?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:
Well you bought a phone that was still under contract and not paid for by the last owner?

I wouldn't be going against the unlock company but instead whomever you got the phone from
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] machv5:
how do you figure that? they told me at the time i nought it knowing full well what and why i was buying it and what i wanted to do with it. it was not some third party unlocking company it was Rogers themselves. they knew it was on a contract and that i was also selling their customer a phone that was still locked to their network which they still have. i bought a phone that had a broken screen which i wanted to repair myself and either resell or keep for myself. i decided to keep it for myself. they lied and honestly why would it be their customers responsibility as to tuem basocally defrauding me. they sold me an unlock code that they did not then provide. anyway it sounds more like ypu work for Rogers amd are some type of damage control by tue way you are defending 2hat they did.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] superchilpil:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] SouL Shadow:
Your right, these posts are off topic. There are no current plans to support a sim unlock for this tool. Right now it only downgrades hboot and applies superCID. I'm working on a rewrite that will support soft bricked recovery as well (with full recovery support to be included once the needed files are found).

I'm sorry to hear about your troubles and I hope you can find a way to get them resolved. It does sound like rogers screwed you, but living in the US I have no idea how your laws would apply to your situation.

i have ubuntu 10.04 can i use it?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] SouL Shadow:
I've never used ubuntu, so I can't say for sure. You can give it a try, as long as it's 32bit, it has the kernel module qcserial and usb support, then it should work. Try running as root:

modprobe qcserial

If you don't get any errors run:

lsmod

And look for qcserial in the left column of the output.

One other thing to check is emmc_recover. After unzipping jet,

chmod +x emmc_recover

Then

./emmc_recover -h

Again, if you don't get any errors (such as undefined symbols) then you should be good to go.

even my phone shows its imei as 000000000000000
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] SouL Shadow:
Ok. I just saw your posts in the other thread. Yes your phone should be recoverable. However i need to gather some information first before I can give you step by step instructions. I'm currently getting readu for work so you may need to wait 12-14 hours before I can put it all together.

PLEASE DO NOT TRY ANYTHING ELSE. Manually pushing (with dd) the wrong file is why you bricked again. Luckily your phone still shows p1-3 so we will need to recreate p4 altogether. Keep in mind that p4 is actually just an extended partition record, which you over wrote with other data. That's why only p1-3 now show up.

Check the back of your phone, inside any removable back covers. You should find a sticker with a bunch of numbers. Look for the one that says MEID(hex) or IMEI(hex). You can PM it to me and I'll calculate the checksum and create the needed file for you.
