So I accuired S-OFF. How do I know what my carrier is, please? Is it by the CID? I got SuperCID, so can I install any RUU?

How do I get stock recovery, please?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
Your carrier is the company that provides phone service that the phone originally came from.

The RUU will flash specific firmwares and the like, and while you technically are ABLE to run any RUU, it's not advisable.

Stock recovery is installed when you run the RUU as the RUU returns your phone to stock.

On a side note, this phone is quite quirky. I highly suggest taking some time and reading through the stickies to get a better understanding of these terms and the processes you're executing. This phone's brick rate is extremely proportionate to one's level of ignorance.

Good luck.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] noahk11:
I wish I had saw this earlier, how ****ed am I? :/ I successfully used the RUU for 2.18 but after doing the Jellybean one the phone dosn't appear to turn, and is not showing up in fastboot either. Anything I can do to fix this or did I screw up big time? -_-
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
You ran the Ruu while s-on? You will need to send the phone for Jtagg or for HTC to replace the motherboard.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] enopola:
Thanks

Thanks for the help without this I wouldn't have gotten anywhere
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ashishpatel0609:
Should I Run RUU on Just relocked Bootloader Or i'll have to S-Off also...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] aaronDroid80:
Must s-off or you will likely brick.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Its pretty clear from what I wrote in the top post of this thread what will happen if you RUU with S-on and SuperCID. You will brick.

You need to S-off, or change back to the correct CID if you want to RUU.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Itaintrite:
Hi, I did some reading (probably not enough...) but I'm still a little confused. If I unlocked bootloader but never used SuperCID to change my OneX's CID, can I still run RUU with S-On and Relocked Bootloader?

Thanks.

Also, my HBoot is 1.09. Can I run the latest 4.1.1 JB RUU?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] aaronDroid80:
What phone do you have (codename: evita, etc. )? If you were able to unlock your bootloader without using SuperCID, then it sounds like you may have a different variant. Other versions of the One X (international version) did not need to use SuperCID to unlock (AT&T had their CID blocked from HTC dev). The other factor that leads me to believe you have a different phone is the RUU version. The last one for the evita was jb4.1.2.

Anyway, please make sure you have the correct Rom/ruu for your phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] twistedddx:
Evita is sold in numerous countries, all except at&t allow unlocking without supercid.

Hboot 1.09 makes it seem like the device is an Evita.

With stock Cid you can only flash ruu from your region. Eg you won't be able to flash at&t region ruu. You need supercid to allow any regions ruu.

But with supercid you will brick on update unless you also get s-off.

You should always get supercid and s-off if you want a nice smooth custom ride.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Itaintrite:
Thanks for the quick reply.

I do have an AT&T HTC One X Evita version. Got it when it first came out. I'm very certain I unlocked it via HTC Dev, maybe CID wasn't blocked back then? Again, did this a year ago about a month (or two) after the phone came out.

Assuming I did not use SuperCID, relocked bootloader with S-On, is it safe to run RUU?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] twistedddx:
Where is your phone from?

If you do not know give stock version or current Cid.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] aaronDroid80:
When you boot the phone in bootloader, what does it report as your CID?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Itaintrite:
It's 100% US AT&T HTC One X.

It doesn't show CID in Bootloader. Relocked, Evita, then HBoot. I haven't used this phone in a long time and did not bother to upgrade anything.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] twistedddx:
Maybe you were lucky with htcdev, but are you certain you device has at&t Cid. I would suggest you check.

PS only supercid display on screen in bootloader.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] aaronDroid80:
Ok. There's also an adb command (don't know it offhand) to show it.

If your planning to flash any aosp Rom, just go ahead with getting s-off. That way you're safe.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
The AT&T CID has ALWAYS been blocked for this device. You either have SuperCID, or manually changed it from SuperCID to something else.

Either way, check with adb.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Itaintrite:
I meditated and came to the conclusion that I definitely unlocked my bootloader via HTC Dev. So certain was I that I took a chance and ran RUU for ICS. Then fastboot getvar cid returned CWS_001 so I went ahead and ran RUU for JB. Everything seems to be okay... For now. Thanks for all your help and suggestion. Still a little confused, but happy it worked out.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] aaronDroid80:
Glad everything went OK.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] twistedddx:
Maybe it was a lucky s-off device?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Itaintrite:
Haha, me too.

It was never S-Off ;P Unless bootloader lied and it was s-off before I bought it lol.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] twistedddx:
You should have bought a lotto ticket on the same day you went to htcdev and casually got a token for your AT&T device :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Would S-off allow bypassing the CID check on HTCDev.com? I'm not so sure it would.

It would have allowed free access to everything else, of course.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
The ICS RUU is relatively safe. It wasn't until the JB RUUs that people started bricking from S-on and SuperCID.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] twistedddx:
Neither am I but short of htcdev having a bad hair day, why did this device get a token? :p

htcdev only block CID 11111111 for AT&T devices(all others are fine to have 11111111) so they are running "complex" rules beyond simple cid matching.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Yeah, normally I would invoke Occam's Razor (the simplest or most obvious solution is usually the correct one) and say he had SuperCID, just didn't remember doing it. But he subsequently stated that his CID is presently CWS_001.

Either he did something he doesn't remember (got SuperCID, than later changed back to CWS_001) which seems a bit unlikely; or he did in fact somehow slip through the CID block on HTCDev.com. If the latter is true, it would be the first I've heard of it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] s4dcase:
I have a Singapore HTC One XL. Currently I have SU and TWRP on my phone but I don't seem to be able to achieve S-Off through SuperCID, the CID doesn't change to 1111111 to enable me to do S-Off.

I'm running on HBoot 2.15, Software 5.05.707.1
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] aaronDroid80:
I assume that your bootloader is already unlocked?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] s4dcase:
Yes, my bootloader is unlocked. Any clues on what could be wrong with it?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] aaronDroid80:
As long as you've ran the appropriate ruu for your version to get you to the 2.14 bootloader, you should be able to flash cm (or any rooted rom for that matter) and gapps for aosp roms. Then fastboot boot.img. reboot your phone and enable su for apps and adb. Then you should be able to get s-off.

You may be having trouble because su isn't enabled for adb.

ota or custom rom

hello everyone..

i am from india..

i purchased htc one xl(evita) via the net 6 months back

and i m still running android 4.0 ..and i wished to upgrage it to jellybean but wasnt getting any ota updates

so i searched up the net and today i found out that my phone is supercid 11111111 and is also s off

i also unlocked the bootloader wanting to get root access..but then wasnt able to get clear info on how to do it

now i am in a dilemma whether to go for root access and flash custom rom or posssibly try to lock the bootloader

and find out if there is a way to change the cid,which i feel would enable me to get ota updates..please reply..i m in a big fix
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Don't lock the bootloader, don't change the CID, just go to one of our development sections which are here and here and download a ROM to install. You'll need to install a custom recovery (TWRP) first if you haven't already.

PS. You're asking this question in the wrong place, this thread has nothing to do with what you're asking. In future please find a more relevant thread to post your question in. Do not reply on this thread, if you have any further questions just pm me.

We were just sitting here when the storm hit and saw all the casualties as they floated off one by one. It was all fairly grim at the time.

Lesson are easy learned in hindsight:

-Do not flash Jellybean RUU/OTA when supercid/s-on. Price ~$200 real cash.

-Do not swim for the hatch at the bottom of the ocean even if you hear someone tapping morse code. Price ~$5000 GTA5 cash.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Are you wanting to flash the ROM through recovery? The ROM itself doesn't require s-off, but it does require a firmware upgrade which requires s-off.

Anyway, what ROM are you currently on? Is your bootloader unlocked? Do you have root? What are your bootloader details? If you're still stuck on the rebootRUU screen hold volume down and then hold power (so you're holding both buttons together), the screen will go blank after a few seconds, once the screen goes blank let go of power but keep holding volume down until you reach the bootloader. Please post the first five lines you see.

PS. I'm not sure why you're posting this question in this thread, it isn't relevant to the thread at all.

HTC One X Evita, Bricked after RUU, Not SuperCID but S-On

Hey everyone

I am pretty certain I just hard bricked my AT&T HTC One X. I had my phone rooted and unlocked about a year ago and after using CleanROM for a while, I updated to a UrDroid Stock JB ROM. My bootloader page showed my information as followed cid num: CWS_001, Hboot 1.09, S On, Unlocked. Due to my phone constantly dropping wifi for no reason, I was desperate to upgrade to newer versions. So a while back, i read up on how to do that, and i just remember being very confused so I put it off. Yesterday, i finally decided to upgrade and decided on RUUing because I wanted to be able to do OTA (seemed easiest). I relocked my phone and ran the RUU successfully and ended up with a hard brick (can't turn on at all, can't charge at least no indication of charging). Anyways, probably too late for anything but I would really like to know what went wrong, did I run into something new or is this the RUU with SuperCID n S-On issue this thread addresses?

I downloaded the latest RUU for my phone with the correct cid number. I also do not believe i had SuperCID. I unlocked my boatloader with an unlock code i retrieved through the HTC Dev site. The link for the unlocking procedure i followed is provided below.

Since i can't link, if you search "brief mobile how to unlock att one x bootloader" in google, it should be the first link

I believe I was just regular CID and S-On and resulted in a brick as well but i may be wrong on that. If anyone would look into whether I had SuperCID or not based on how i unlocked and let me know if that was the cause, i would really appreciate it. I also just RUUed with TWRP recovery still on my phone, I didn't think that mattered too much (because I was lazy and couldn't find stock recovery in the compilation thread). Would appreciate any ideas on why im hard bricked :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You did indeed have SuperCID. All at&t phones are blocked from htcdev, making unlocking impossible unless the phone is SuperCID. I tracked down the method you mentioned at briefmobile and it definitely includes making the phone SuperCID. It does use slightly different terminology (calling it spoof CID) but it is the same thing. So yes, you have fallen to the "SuperCID + s-on + jb RUU = brick" situation. You can get your phone jtag repaired though.

Next time I'd strongly suggest knowing what you're doing before doing it. Just thinking that you have the standard CID isn't enough, and all it takes is a single fastboot command to find out what CID you had. You're learning that the hard way. So, after you've had your phone is repaired my advice is to not modify it again until you have a firm grasp on things. Sure, modifying your device is great but it certainly isn't simple by any stretch of the imagination. It requires a certain level of knowledge and patience to be confident and capable.

Hi all, this has probably been asked b4. I'm wanting to use my Sony notebook on the internet using the GPRS connection of my XDA. I'm told MS Activesync's passthrough facility allows this.

Has anyone done this and what is the procedure? Do I need extra leads or can I use the cradle?

I'm visiting Spain soon and hope I can use it on the Movistar network although this is quite expensive I plan to use Yahoo Messenger & MSN Messenger only.

Regards

John
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Peter Poelman:
I guess in that case a quick use of the search function would have been in order...

It does not: it only allows the XDA to use the network connection on the PC, not vice-versa

If you upgrade to the latest Qtek 1010 ROM and get a serial cable (or use infrared), you can use the XDA as a modem. This site still contains another procedure for using the XDA as a modem, but using the Qtek upgrade is superior...
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] datasafe:
Thanks for the reply,

I did infact use the search facility but didn't find the answer to my question. I used the following words in my search 'activesync' & 'passthrough'. I read through many of the results but without finding the specific information. I therefore thougtht it appropriate to post my request.

I hope I didn't offend anyone.

I guess part the problem for some of us 'not in the know' type, when someone refers to qtek rom upgrade we are left wondering if this is specific to our hardware. I have an XDA on o2 network and qtek means nothing at all to me.

Thanks again for the reply.

Regards

John

PS Going to find out what qtek means!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] markh:
As for as I can tell, QTek is some middle-man brand that handles software specifics for mobile phone operators around the world.

About

A little about how this app came to be! It’s really quite simple, regular users shouldn’t have to fumble with the terminal to get a custom device experience.

We quickly realized after getting a boat load of Nexus devices that flashing via terminal with all our specific tweaks took too long. Don’t get the wrong idea we love the terminal, but we just thought, for the people out there who love their Android device and may not love code there must be a better way. We started coding, and DroidTools was born. It’s simple, easy to use, and good looking.

DroidTools is an Android utility that provides the same capabilities you'd find using ADB terminal commands available from Google, the difference being this application presents a more user friendly experience for the somewhat novice user. (Research still required) to understand what and why for example you'd wish to flash a different baseband ect. This utility doesn't have embedded phone home capabilities, and this application doesn't store ANY device specific information. If you wish to use the integrated wifi capabilities DroidTools will store only the IP address of your device to attempt connection (at the time of your choosing), and can be reset at anytime. We developed this application because we simply wanted to contribute to the Android community, and in that spirit we've made this application available at no cost to you.

Hi visitor. :)

Since Sense ROMs are somewhat heavier than the AOSP ones and do eat up the RAM space more than they do, so multi-tasking ability is so much more limited due to our phone's specifications; Hereby, this thread guides you to achieve a quite proper system configuration for a great multi-tasking on Sense based ROMs, especially Sense 4.1 like Elegancia, ViperS etc.

Let's make a bee line straight to what we need. :)

1st. Download and flash the new Sultan Kernel R15 from HERE with these options:

-) MPDecision disabled

-) The same Freq for both CPUs

-) Intellidemand Governor for both CPUs

-) Max Freq 1782MHz and Min 384MHz for both CPUs [Besides 1026MHz third phase]

-) 3D GPU --> 300MHz and 2D GPU --> 228MHz

-) SIO Scheduler and 2048KB SD Cache Size

-) Multitasking Ultimate

2nd. Go HERE http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2145133 to get TurboBoost MOD by Delta-roh and Harbir and follow the instructions there.

3rd. Download and install Kernel Tuner v4 from HERE.

-) Open up the app;

-) Hit Menu and select Swap;

-) Set your swappiness value to 40 and hit related button;

-) Go back to the app's main page and hit the turning on/off the second CPU core at the bottom of the page if the bar above showed CPU1 as "offline" and go to the app's settings and tick "Prevent other apps from changing CPU" (In case the second CPU core was NOT offline, then step into settings directly and tick what I said :) ).

4th. Go HERE and follow the instructions to get CrossBreeder.

5th. Download Task Switcher from Play Store and once you've got it installed, press the home button once and it'll ask you for default launcher, select Task Switcher; then press the home button twice and select your launcher, for example HTC Sense.

You're done, reboot your phone and enjoy! :good:
[HTC Sensation] KiD3991:
IMO, the best way to handle multitask is to modify minfrees. By setting minfrees to multitask extreme in Sultans kernel. Then by using ROM cleaner showed in ARHD's thread. These 2 ways are the best to get a Sense to have more multitasking capability.

I'm not saying your method is not doable, but to me I need every space spared in my external SD. Too much swaps degrades SD card life too(although in an extremely small manner). And there is also risks of corrupting files inside too.

Thank you for your effort in trying to create a good modification. :)

Btw, cross breeder is a good way to keep your device less laggy.
[HTC Sensation] ashkan-khatar:
thanks buddy, but these are working for me and are my personal experiences, that's why posted them .

btw, cross breeder had been already written mate, step 5, but it was untitled. :)

Does crossbreeder prevent applications and process to be closed by android system?
[HTC Sensation] ashkan-khatar:
That relates to the system RAM and/or Swap memories, as when the system encounters lack of sufficient RAM, so it closes some apps to free up some space.

But when you choose the minfree settings as "least free RAM - multitasking ultimate", you inculcate your system that "I do not want free space on RAM, so don't close whatever you wanted!"
