Re: [Q&A][ROM List]HTC Desire X help thread[NOOB FRIENDLY]

It's actually pretty hard, cause it's firmware. Most likely findable on /dev/ somewhere. I've already checked all the /dev/block's, but didn't find any thing that could be the CID number.

If anyone is interested in helping, it'd be great. But you need to know what you're doing if you want to help.

Try to look at how the other HTC devices got supercid, and you might learn something.

Good day to community.

Yesterday I've updated to JB 4.1, didn't like all those bugs and wanted to rollback to ICS. But I didn't managed to make backup of my ICS. I've tried to flash custom ROM (unlocked bootloader, installed CWM and modified boot.img) and it doesn't seems to be working. Any advices to get back to stock ICS ROM?

cid HTC___A07 (Russia)

I just can't find my stock image EXE and just put it to sdcard.

1) Downloading stock image EXE

2) Start it and look for rom.zip

3) rename it to PM66IMG.zip

4) put it to sdcard root

5) relock bootloader

6) reloading to fastboot and waiting for update

Or maybe I'm doing something wrong?
[HTC Desire X] TheThorus:
hello good people!

I'm writing here, because for now I have no idea what else I could do.

After I downloaded JB update and I realized it's crap, I wanted to unlock my Desire X and install a custom ROM (maybe the problem lies here, but I haven't found any thread/post saying that I can't unlock and/or install custom ROM after this update).

1. I succesfully unlocked my bootloader using this tutorial http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1943822 and flashed a recovery using this tutorial http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2076675 (I somehow couldn't do it the first way, but finally I managed to using the second one), installed the superuser and after rebooting everything worked OK.

2. Then I proceeded with installing the custom ROM - Sense.Revolution.R5. Yes, I did a nandroid backup - succesfully. I wiped 'data/factory reset’, 'cache partition’ and 'dalvik cache’, than I wanted to 'install zip from sd card' but it failed. The strange part starts here - I restored my backup, rebooted - everything was fine. I chose another ROM, this time mySENSE-dx RC3.0. I installed the boot.img before installing the ROM itself and then flashed the zip through recovery - this time it was fine but after rebooting the phone was stuck for more than 20 minutes at pure black screen.

I did the nandroid restore once again.. it finished but the phone remains the same black while booting. I also tried skydragon but it was the exactly the same.

Please help me, I have no idea what else I could do. If only my nandroid backup was working properly there would be no problem, but now I'm afraid my desire x is bricked - if so, and nothing else could be done - tell me.
[HTC Desire X] realCyphox:
for now you cant go back to ics, because there's no s-off (system protection disabled) yet as far as i know, not 100% sure, just read it somewhere. flashing any ics rom wont work because the mount points for the partitions are different after installation of jelly bean

for using your nandroid-backuped jelly bean, you have to flash the kernel again (boot.img) just as you did before installing mysense, it should be included in your backup-folder

Go into bootloader an take a picture with a camera, please black out all things like sn or imei if necessary.

If you are rooted and have adb set up, you could just reboot into bootloader with "adb shell reboot bootloader", as I don't know the key combination for it now ^^ (on Desire S it is vol down while power on)

Thank you :)

Re: [Q&A][ROM List]HTC Desire X help thread[NOOB FRIENDLY]

@Jann F,

The number is PM66 and, when you are in bootloader it looks for PM66diag.zip and PM66IMG.zip.

You can download them from a decrypted RUU that nlooooo made if you want to investigate them.
[HTC Desire X] Stereo8:
It's the same key combo...

[HTC Desire X] Velete:
So ive been plodding along lurking on these forums for a couple of weeks :P Trying to learn about my new phone ( first ever smartphone ) so had a fair amount of catching up to do:P

Didnt want to start posting on this forum till i was at least past the 'OMG I DEMAND HELP' noob phase first:)

Managed to get my phone rooted thanks to this thread and the other desire X link index ( also props to the all in one toolkit by hasoon2000 ) so again, thanks : you guys rock.

Didnt go any further than getting root access since it was what i was specifcally needing (hundreds of apps eating internal storage so wanted link2sd to be able to move the unmoveable files from stock android app storage transfer tool, back up my save games with Titanium etc)

But now here is my problem! 3 Days after i get my phone rooted and all my stuff back installed and running sweet : Bloody software update has comeout!?

So what should i do about the upgrade? Am i able to straight up run it and have it apply succesfully ( aware this will kill root ) without doing anymore to phone ? Do i even want to upgrade considering how long it took me to get root access in the first place ?

Totally at a loss, id really like to try the new version of android (despite the bugs) but i dont want to either

A)Brick my phone by not updating properply (or not even bricked but 'beyond my skill')

or

B) Have the new android and lose root access so therefore losing the ultra-useful Link2SD

Sorry for long speel, any advice would be welcome : you have already all helped more than you could know so thanks:D
[HTC Desire X] Jann F:
The first step should be a backup of your boot and system partition via TWRP or CWM.

After this you can can run updates unless it is the JB update, in this case, your phone will have a newer version of the bootloader (hboot) and with this a different partition table, which means your old backups will not be able to boot till you manage to manipulate the to fit the new partition sizes and layout.

So if it isn't the Jellybean update, you can go back after the update via your backup.

I hope you have done such a backup before rooting your phone, because, depending on your CID it might be possible to never get back to that old unrooted state if any update fails because of the modifications done by the root script.

Tell us your CID please, just in case you are branded...

In bootloader/fastboot USB mode:

fastboot getvar cid

or OEM style

fastboot oem readcid

both commands will do the same, tell you what CID your phone has.

PS: Updates with version number below or (<=) 1.26.xxxx are ICS updates, everything higher is JB.

Hello to everyone!

I have a T-MOB101 phone and i have open bootloader, this rom

Because i have burn my mind to read and not found a solution

please someone tell me if its possible to receive the JB update.

Thank you :(
[HTC Desire X] hcdav:
OTA will only work with the exact stock firmware that came with your phone,

i.e. The deodexed ROM will not work with the OTA update, you have to restore a nandroid update for the stock firmware for T-MOB101 CID, and you must have the stock recovery installed too.

I dont have nandroid backup.

Why don't I get the JB update? Do I need to relock the bootloader or something else? My CID is ORANG216

Yes, htc updated only few phones to ppl which has managed to notice and download update, they wont be updating any other desire x phones in future, not even ones which are still boxed, so its totaly useless to buy desire x now and if you missed the update, you have really bad luck.

OR

By looking at your cid I would say, that orange is branding phones and they have to brand this update to make it fully compatible, then theyll release it for you cid, no ETA possible, since operators are just too lazy with this stuff.

edit: you have to be at stock configuration, stock kernel, stock recovery, stock rom, locked bootloader

Hi All, Since this is a Noob friendly Thread, I guess I can ask any silly question ;)

Its regarding this thread .

I don't get it when you mean "ROOT" of the SD card. I can't find any folder by the name 'ROOT' in SD card (No hidden files either) . So what is it then? Will that work if I create a folder by that name and then copy the files into it?

Why do we require the procedure2 as mentioned in the other thread? I mean, When i used to flash ROMs in my tiny Wildfire S , I never had to do this --

Is this like flashing the kernel after flashing the ROM? (Don't Hit me plz, for these questions :P )
[HTC Desire X] kedar18:
Root not the physical folder. It is the starting location for your folder structure in SDcard. for instance, if you open the sdcard on computer, by default it gets opened at the root of the sdcard. If you can use adb, below are some commands which will take you to root location of sdcard using command prompt & adb.

adb shell

cd /sdcard/

---------- Post added at 12:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 PM ----------

This procedure is not for all ROMS. its just for JB ROM for running that on ICS HBOOT, as ICS HBOOT allocates less size for Boot partition, in which JB boot cannot fit in. Hence, we flash Boot image for JB rom to Recovery, which is greater that boot partition when on ICS HBOOT, using command below -

fastboot flash recovery boot.img

Hence when you go back to bootloader and reboot to recovery, you actually boot into the Kernel (or Boot) which is present in recovery.

If you are on JB boot, this is not required, however, you will have to flash kernel (or boot) to boot partition specifically after flashing rom, using command below -

fastboot flash boot boot.img

Because, HTC security does not allow to update boot partition from recovery.
