Hey Q&A. Looking for a ROM (preferably not Sense-based) that has the maximum battery life.

I've carefully examined all of my applications, as well as tweaked which apps have permission to run in the background, and still only have a maximum of 2 hours screen-on time on the most recent Jellybam ROM version.

I've done all of the batterystats resetting, as well as the 100% to 0%, with no change in battery life.

I'm looking for even a single hour longer battery-wise. Again, though I prefer the AOSP style (as well as CM/JB), Sense is okay.

So which ROMs have the best battery from the start guys? (AT&T HTC One X only please)

Thanks in advance!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Silellak:
I've gotten Sense-ish battery life (maybe a bit worse than ICS Sense ROMs, but better than AOSP ROMs) with AOSP-level performance from this AOSP-themed Desensed JB ROM:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=35749360&postcount=517

It's still a Beta, but it's pretty much fully functional, with the exception of recording video - it force closes right now.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] danstheman7:
Flashed it and for some reason i'm having all sorts of issues. Play store won't download apps, nor will my mobile internet work correctly. Clean flashed (wiped all/system data cache etc) two times, so don't know why.

Gonna give viperXL a try, as it seems to be highly recommended on a few posts I've seen.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Silellak:
Strange, I haven't had anything like that.

Guess you'll just have to try them all until you find what's best for your usage.

Best Rom threads, best battery life threads are not really allowed.

I understand why "best ROM" threads are frowned upon. But as a noob to Android, I find it hard to understand the objective differences between ROMs as there is no such discussion as far as I can tell.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] WarRaven:
In each persons usage, results can vary wildly from things such as signal loss, a locked up sms app etc.. so it comes down to opinions an that's where issues can arise.

Not trying to be rude to you, or senior members, but that's the law of the mods.

I'm using CM10 nightly Evita build from the 25th i think, and getting on average about 26 hours if battery life. Also have easy battery saver running most of the time, it's actually rather effective. Without it I get about 2 or 3 hours less.

Jellybam gave me the best battery with rohankernel, but as far as gaining the most life out of your device I would stick with Sense and try ViperXl or CleanRom.

Post 2: How to flash a custom ROM and kernel (boot.img)

The fun part! Now, I will teach you how to flash a ROM and boot.img

Find a ROM you like, the first thing you should do is make sure it is COMPATIBLE with your phone. If you find a ROM that is for AT&T (Evita) and you have the International model (Tegra3), don't be an idiot and flash it. I will not help you with that since you already agreed to my warning from the first post.

International models won't work on an AT&T HOX and Vice Versa.

Also, DO NOT ASK IF YOU CAN FLASH A ROM FROM ANOTHER DEVICE!

Will it work? NO! Will it ever work? NO! Can I flash it anyways? Brick your device, I don't care. I warned you.

Let's get back on task. So you found the ROM you want to try, so go ahead and download it. KEEP THE THREAD OPEN! MAKE SURE YOU READ EVERYTHING AND REREAD IT AGAIN! READ WHAT USERS SAID ABOUT IT AND ABOUT BUGS! GO AHEAD AND READ THE WHOLE ENTIRE THREAD! GAIN KNOWLEDGE!!

Connect your USB cable to your phone. View the folders on your phone. I like to make a folder called ROMs on my phone and transfer it in there.

After you transfer it, open my toolkit and press Boot into Recovery. When you are in TWRP, MAKE A BACKUP!!!

After you make a backup AKA a Nandroid, click Wipe. Wipe Cache, Dalvik, Factory Reset and System. NOTHING ELSE! If you click anything else, IT WILL WIPE YOUR SD CARD AND YOU WILL HAVE MORE ISSUES ON YOUR HEAD!

So you wiped everything. Great. Your phone is ROMless, Yay!

Now go back and press install. Go to the folder where the ROM you downloaded, is located in. Select the ROM and slide the screen to flash it. After it flashes, press the back button. Press Reboot and Reboot into bootloader. Open the ROM you downloaded from your computer. You should see boot.img. Extract it to your computer. Open my toolkit and press Flash a Kernel. Locate the boot.img and it will flash it.

After it flashes, press reboot from the phone.

Congrats! Enjoy your fully working or borked ROM! Remember, DO NOT ASK FOR ETAs, DO NOT BUG/PM A DEV ABOUT UPDATES, and BE RESPECTFUL TO THE DEVELOPERS!

Post 3: How to reverse everything and go back to stock

Now, let's talk about getting back to stock. There are 2 ways to do this.

1. Flash the stock RUU (If available) (Recommended)

2. Restore your Nandroid (backup that I told you to make earlier)

1. I'll talk about flashing the stock RUU first.

Go here and download the RUU.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1543604

Download the correct RUU for your phone.

Now, back up all your data (pictures, contacts, etc) since this will put your phone back to complete stock.

Connect the USB cable to your phone. Press Boot into Bootloader.

It should now say FASTBOOT USB on your screen.

Press Relock bootloader. It may give you a security warning error or it may say failed. Who cares, ignore it. It's normal.

Your phone will boot up normally.

When the phone is fully loaded. Unplug and replug the USB cable back in the phone. Now,run the RUU you downloaded and follow the instructions.

Your phone will be back to stock.

2. Now, we will talk about restoring your nandroid backup.

Connect your phone to the computer. Open up the folder to view the files on your phone.

From your computer, Go to TWRP -> BACKUPS -> (Your hardware Serial Number) -> (Folder you wish to restore to) -> and copy boot.emmc.win to your computer. Rename boot..emmc.win to boot.img

Open my toolkit and press boot into recovery.

Click Wipe. Wipe Cache, Dalvik, Factory Reset and System. NOTHING ELSE! If you click anything else, IT WILL WIPE YOUR SD CARD AND YOU WILL HAVE MORE ISSUES ON YOUR HEAD!

Press back and press Restore. Choose the backup to restore to.

After it finishes, press the back button. Press Reboot and select bootloader.

Open my toolkit and press Flash a Kernel. Locate the boot.img and it will flash it.

You are now back to your stock Nandroid.

4. How to use ADB Sideload

You may have seen what ADB Sideload around the forums but have no idea what it is. Since the HOX does not have an SD card, it makes things harder when you have to flash a ROM.

Here's a scenario when we need to use ADB Sideload.

1. You accidentally wiped your internal SD and have no ROM on your phone

2. You wiped your ROM and forgot to transfer a custom ROM/have no backups(Nandroid) available.

3, You have none of the above and there is no available RUU for your phone. <----- This is a real bummer.

Here are the steps to load on a ROM

I placed TWRP in my toolkit for a reason. CWM does not support ADB Sideload (as far as I know) and TWRP does.

Boot into recovery manually. Turn your device off and hold the VOLUME DOWN + POWER button together until the BOOTLOADER pops up. Press the VOLUME DOWN button until you have selected RECOVERY. Press the POWER button to get into RECOVERY.

Connect the USB Cable to your phone and computer.

In TWRP, click "Advanced" and select ADB Sideload.

Download a ROM to your computer (if you haven't already done so). Rename it as one word. For example CM10.zip, QX.zip, ARHD.zip, etc.

In my toolkit, under the extras section, press ADB Sideload a ROM. Press "Yes" when it asks you if you are in recovery. Then select the ROM you want to install. It will then sideload it to your phone and flash it.

After it finishes, press the back button. Press Reboot and select bootloader.

Pull the boot.img from the zip file and extract it.

Open my toolkit and press Flash a Kernel. Locate the boot.img and it will flash it.

You now have a ROM on your phone!

Is it working with Jelly Beam? And will i be able to get OTA updates after?

Thanx
[HTC One X] marnox:
OTA

You won't be able to get official OTA updates after you have flashed a custom rom.

My experience is that even rooting is tricky for official Firmware upgrades.

Even tough there are some ROM's on XDA that have OTA support!

hi guyz i am new in this rooting thing. i dont know much about these things. can u tell me any easy way to root my htc one x please? and one thing more ive in many posts that after rooting there is a sound error in htc one x is this true? what do u guyz suggest should i root it or not? thankx cheers. :fingers-crossed:
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
If you plan to install a custom rom or want to use applications that require root, rooting is a must! As far as I know, rooting can not cause sound error! However, its always a good practice to take a nandroid backup before you do anything! :)

All the steps needed to unlock your bootloader and rooting your HOX is given in the first post!! Read it! :good:
[HTC One X] nicoli26:
This thread give us newbie a comprehensive instruction from unlock bootloader up to install custom ROM ;) Just read read read read all the instructions from the first page. If you have questions or something wrong happened, don't hesitate to post your feedback here. And also regarding with sounds, the stock ROM has a problem when it comes to speaker mode (I am not if it's condsisdered as a problem though :p ) You can add or enhance the volume thru custom ROM, in may case I am using Viper ROM and I am very happy with it when it comes to sounds. I would recommend to root your HOX :)
[HTC One X] nogotaclue:
I have read many threads about rooting and flashing roms and tried a few of the methods. I can honestly say that this thread has been the easiest to understand and by far the easiest method to unlock, root and flash Roms on my One x. The all in one toolkit is so easy to use and has everything the newbie, like myself, needs to get started. Give it a go, you won't be disappointed, but as stated above " read, read, read". Have fun :)

[HTC One X] vin4yak:
If you have a nandroid backup... follow these steps:

1. Flash the boot.img from the nandroid backup via fastboot

2. Download This and flash via recovery.

3. Restore the nandroid backup by navigating to the backup folder... /clockworkmod/backup/xxxxxxx/ via recovery.

4. Flash the stock recovery for your firmware CHECK THIS

5. Relock the bootloader by "fastboot oem lock"

6. Reboot.

Hope this helps! :)

PS: If didn't heed the advice and did not take a nandroid backup of your stock rom, Go Here and download the backup which matches your CID!

Use any explorer... navigate to "/clockworkmod/backups/xxxxx/" (XXXXX = date on which you took a backup)

Now in that folder there will be a file called boot.img... you have to flash that! :)

Flash a kernel but leave ROM alone?

Hi,

Total noob here, so bear with me! :p

I'd like to flash a kernel (i've been eyeing the XM series enviously), but would like to remain on stock ROM so I can still have the HTC features, camera app, etc.

Is it necessary to wipe and install a new ROM then flash the kernel, or can I somehow leave the ROM alone and just replace the kernel? Or are the ROM and kernel one and the same thing and you basically flash the whole package at once? (see, I told you I was a noob!)

Thanks for your help and patience!

I'm pretty new to unlocking/rooting, and I have gone through all of the pages on this thread but haven't found a specific answer to what I'm wondering about. I have already used the htcdev site and got my unlock token successfully but I haven't used it yet (I just wanted to make sure I have the option for later).

What I'm wondering is can I use this tool to root without unlocking the bootloader first? I've read elsewhere on xda and other forums about people rooting without unlocking, but maybe that's only for certain phones or maybe they were wrong – but I'm still a noob and can't get a handle on if I could do this :)

Clearly a lot of people are having success with this tool so I'd like to use it for rooting if I can.
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
Actually, unlocking is bootloader is not necessary for rooting/installing SuperSU.zip

However, you can only flash the SuperSU.zip if you have a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP! and if you want to use a custom recovery, you first need to unlock your bootloader!

So the whole process of rooting/flashing new roms starts with unlocking your bootloader! :)

I just download HTC Sync manager from here.. installed it and rebooted...

If your not able to flash with the toolkit.. do it manually m8!
