Use of Fastboot to flash kernel before flashing Custom-ROM

Dear All,

I recently moved from my beloved HD2 to the International ONE X+ and I really love this phone! Using hasoon's toolkit I managed to unlock & root the phone without any problems, so thank you very much for this perfect tool (and by the way: HAPPY BIRTHDAY)l!!!

As I am now about to flash a Custom ROM, I would appreciate your feedback on the following issue:

Reading the flashing instructions e.g. for Steve's ELEGANCIA ROM, it is stated that before flashing the ROM via CWMR, it is necessary to

- Download boot.img and use fastboot "fastboot flash boot boot.img"

- Use fastboot "fastboot erase cache"

Now my stupid noob question: are the above two steps still necessary having unlocked & rooted the device via hasoons's tool? If YES (what I expect), can I do this also with this tool? I have seen that the tool provides a kernel-flashing option, is this comparable to "use fastboot "fastboot flash boot boot.img"? If YES, does this then also automatically "fastboot erase cache", or is there a manual step that needs to be performed to erase the cache???

Your feedback is highly appreciated!

regards Spooky

Hi

I had a question regarding future android updates from ATT/HTC. If I use this toolkit to unlock and root the phone now, can I still download any future updates (let's say to JB 4.2.1) as and when ATT/HTC rolls them out?

Regards
[HTC One X+] WA_Bob:
I'd assume that you won't be able to take OTA updates unless you're unrooted and bone stock, but I'm sure that they will be fixed for us rooted folk by the great devs we have around these parts. ;)

I am a noob in rooting. I've done everything on the left side of your application. When booting into bootloader it says "Unlocked". How do I get it rooted with the application you wrote?

Do you have a tutorial? I've seen your video, but I'm not sure what steps I to do?
[HTC One X+] gravejoker:
So, even if I stick to the stock ROM, I would not be able to have OTA updates once I root?
[HTC One X+] skeppley:
You wont want OTA updates once your rooted and running one of the great roms available here :)

If an OTA update comes out with anything useful, the devs here will just cook it into the rom.

If your gonna stick with the stock rom and want carrier updates OTA, there's really no point in rooting.

Lock your bootloader and flash the stock ROM.

Thanks for the quick response.

I had about 10 minutes before work and tried this. I locked the bootloader with no problem, then got errors trying to flash the recovery rom. Will it not flash because the bootloader is locked? Just wondering. I will have more time to fool with this later tonight.

Thanks again.

after you locked the bootloader just use the right RUU to flash your device back to stock...you will lose all the files on the phone

If you didnt get it to work yet, try using a different browser.

If you still cant get it to work, perhaps post the identifier token text here and one of us can run it for you, then email the unlock code binary file to you.

I dont know if it contains any sensitive info though, so others may need to answer that :)

unable to get token

This is with the AT&T One X plus, which (based on posts in this thread) should work. Let me know if I've got that wrong.

I ran the tool. I installed the drivers. They appeared to install successfully. Get Token ID reboots the phone into bootloader mode. However, when the phone reboots, (sometimes) windows 7 tells me that the drivers did not install correctly and that I don't have MTP. Regardless of whether I actually get that error or not, when I close the first command prompt window, the second one stays in "waiting for device" until the phone eventually reboots back into normal mode. I have uninstalled the device and I have uninstalled the HTC drivers that were installed by the tool and started from scratch twice, but get the same result. Does anyone else get this behavior? If so, were you able to solve it? How did you do that if you were? If not, was there another root method that you were able to use?

Thanks!

**UPDATE**

I used the command line, manually, with fastboot to get the token. I never could get the tool to do that part and I'm not sure why. Once I got the token, everything else worked great. I'm rooted and happy.

Due to get my One X+ today!!! Getting my PC up and running at the minute for it. Only issue I have is I have windows 8. However my sensation is fully working with adb and fastboot so I am hoping I should be ok. I did try and install HTC drivers, but it is not supported in windows 8

If worst comes to worst I will revert back to windows 7!

I had found another site that I don't think was specific to our phone. It had some fastboot commands.

The toolkit should probably include CWM recovery and maybe suggest it as a default because for ATT TWRP OFFMODE charging does not work.

Many people are not aware of this as they just use the toolkit and don't read the TWRP warning in the thread (myself included):

[HTC One X+] jonathanp:
Just read through the whole thread and I understand the following

1. once you unlock the bootloader it effectively performs a factory reset on the phone

2. you have to change the recovery in order to root

3. once you change the recovery you no longer get OTA updates

My question is once the phone is rooted could I reflash the stock recovery (if I can find it, my HOX+ is a O2 UK model) to re-enable OTA updates or would this cause me to lose root? Could a rootkeeper help with this?

I don't want to go to custom roms just yet I just want root access for certain apps.

On my other devices I was able to root without changing or unlocking the bootloader. Is this likely to be possible on the HOX+ at some point? as I believe you can do this on the HOX with superboot.

P.S. Does anyone know if the O2 uk one x+ models support 4g? I know the network doesn't yet but it would be nice to be future proof
[HTC One X+] NasaGeek:
To answer a few of your questions: You can go back to stock recovery if you can find it, and it will not cause you to lose root. However OTA updates can certainly cause you to lose root, so if you do reflash stock recovery for the purpose of OTA updates it would probably be best to use a rootkeeper. Unfortunately I am not knowledgeable enough to answer the rest of your questions, sorry!

Hi,

Any reason why you had CWM, then TWRP, then now Lloir's CWM please?

What's the major difference between TWRP & CWM?

I thought TWRP was more stable than CWM.

Thanks for any input.
[HTC One X+] hasoon2000:
At the time, it said new CWM builds had off charging support. That is why I placed them here.
[HTC One X+] xdacalvien:
CWM is new for me, never try before...

Will be try for the next, Off Charging support is really usefull.

Thanks.
[HTC One X+] sirxdroid:
Is it that useful? Do you keep your phone off on a regular basis but want it to charge? I don't know, maybe that's how some people operate. My phone is always on and I charge it regularly. Off charge mode is no big deal to me, touch recovery is more important to me.
[HTC One X+] 911jason:
I always charge my phone while off. I couldn't even stick with CWM because it turns the phone on around 75% apparently to prevent overcharging. At this point, I just flash either CWM or TWRP to flash stuff, and then just flash the stock recovery back afterwards so the phone operates and charges normally.
[HTC One X+] sirxdroid:
That sounds like a good approach once you're done flashing a new ROM every day and you're settled on a certain ROM.

[HTC One X+] sirxdroid:
Viper has one for the NA version of HOX+. Other choices I like for NA are Blackout and Elegancia. Don't know about the int'l version as I don't have it. I'd try Lloir's CM on the int'l.

I will give Elegancia a punt, insertcoin is slick but lacks customisation like the Viper Roms.

Personally not big on Cyanogen.

Strange..

I've succesfully unlocked and rooted my HOX+ about a week ago and I've discovered something weird. It seems I can't install apk's anymore. I'm using ES File Explorer, but whenever I select an apk to install I can tap it, it then responds by showing the usual credits and security details, but when I touch the 'install' button it doesn't react. The only option I'm left with is to press "cancel" which does react sending me back to my ES File Explorer. Installing apps through Google Play still works flawlessly, so I don't think there's an issue with the internal memory. Anybody any ideas? I'm at a loss here.
