[HTC One X] PeteFanta:
Good Morning/evening,

This is my first post here, after purchasing my international One X a couple of months ago, I decided to start tinkering with it, so I unlocked the bootloader and installed a custom rom (CM 10) (I do have a backup of my stock rom), however my HBOOT isn't high enough to get CM 10.1 and there is no HBOOT update solution for my device (vodap001).

So I figured in order to update my HBOOT I should go back to the stock rom and then update it to it's latest update in order to update my HBOOT. My problem is that i'm not sure what to do, I've looked at other threads and they aren't clear enough for me to risk my phone (scared noobie :confused:), should I restore my backup in ClockworkMod Recovery (do I just tap restore, what else do I do?) or do I find a stock rom online and then install that (and what should I do to do that?).

Any help would be really appreciated,

Thanks.

[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Flash the boot.img from the nandroid backup, make a full wipe in the recovery and then restore the nandroid backup.

After that you must flash the stock 2.17 recovery

http://db.tt/OtcxVXh5

After all this you boot into the phones OS and search for official updates and update to JB
[HTC One X] PeteFanta:
I've flashed the boot.img, what do I have to do in order to do a full wipe of the phone?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Fastboot flash boot boot.img

Fastboot erase cache

From the command prompt....remember ?
[HTC One X] PeteFanta:
How do I restore the backup? I don't have it on my phone anymore, it's on my PC.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Copy it back to the phone to the folder where you took it from
[HTC One X] PeteFanta:
Thanks for all your help man :) I've just updated the stock rom to Jelly bean, so now I'll be able to install CM 10.1 or any other variant of Android 4.2!
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Yes but dont forget to make a new nandroid backup of your stock rom ;)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DanGeorges:
I did a search, but couldn't find a definitive answer to this question:

When the official ATT update comes out with 4.2.2 and Sense 5+, is there a danger in accepting the update with my phone in its present state?

Thanks,

Dan

Phone information:

HTC One X (AT&T version)

ROM: Stock 4.1.2 (from the HTC RUU site - I never got the OTA update)

Thanks for your help!

No as you have custom recovery. Just wait for a rooted flashable zip. :)

We aren't getting the 4.2.2 update. We should only be getting 4.1.2

Like all of these rumors, I'll believe it when I see it. I'ts completely without risk for someone to say these things are going to happen - if they DO, those people look like geniuses, and if they don't, no one calls them on it.

HTC themselves did say they intend to update the one x to 4.2.2 sense 5 BUT technically, I don't believe they specified the dual core version so who knows.

HTC is Great with build quality and design but they are SO SLOW with updates. by the time Sense 5 comes out it will probably be time for a new phone anyway.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 31ken31:
Makes me wonder......
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] twistedddx:
You should consider any update offered by HTC as a moderate to high risk to a modded phone or a phone you want to mod.

HTC do not support a phone once it has been modded.

Any update may brick your device, prevent you unlocking, rooting, modding etc.

That said with supercid and soff the risks are reduced but not eliminated. Any update expects your phone to be stock, if it is not any amount of unknown things could go wrong.

If/when an update comes out you should only accept the update if you are willing to accept a bricked device. The risk reduces if others are saying they succeeded, but sometimes it takes time before it is fully clear of any quirks to updating. Eg JB with supercid on s-on AT&T devices caused many lost devices.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dustinhayes93:
You can be HTC and supply us with timely updates :D
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
I doubt you could fathom the amount of time and work that goes into rom development. Many roms are developed by teams. imagio is one person, let's not create any more pressure than the pressure he puts on himself. That's how you push someone into stopping development. If you really want to push him to do timely updates the best way is with frequent, large donations.

Twistedddx, while your post is 100% accurate, I think it's pretty safe to assume that it will fall on deaf ears for the type of people within this community. Personally, while this phone is just perfect as it is right now, a brick is just the perfect reason to upgrade lol
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Megadoug13:
Okay well then I was wrong. I've only read that we won't get 4.2.2
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dustinhayes93:
I know how much time and work imagio and his team put into there sense 5 Rom. They are doing an amazing job and that's what I ment by my comment. I simply ment that him and his team are doing a better job than HTC is at keeping us updated. In no way was I rushing them or causing pressure..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DanGeorges:
Thank you for your answer to my question. I didn't realize that a simple question would generate so much angst.

I read about the bricked phones with S-On and SuperCID, but I haven't read anything about S-OFF and superCID with the update.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coltlacey1:
Hey guys, so here just today I went back to a forum I am on and was attempting to upload photos and everything I try tells me all my photos are now an "invalid file type". It does not make any sense to me because I have tried two different browsers, two different websites, and photos I have previously uploaded. So I am curious if anyone else has had this issue. Have also tried uploading a URL from photo bucket but that will not work either. For my applications, such as instagram and Facebook, it uploads just fine...I am running on the newest CyanogenMod nightly for this phone. Was on yesterdays build and thought that was the problem but have now installed today's nightly and still no luck. Any help would be appreciated.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bishopcgarcia:
good day, this is my first post in this forum. i just bought my galaxy s4 just a week ago....

i copied all my sim contacts to my phone and already set "view phone contacts only"

the problem is that,when i go to messaging, the one that will appear is still the contact info from the sim(no contact photo would appear because the sim doesnt support saving photos on it). can someone help me with this?

do i need to delete all my contacts on my sim card so that the information of the message sender would be the one saved on my phone?

thank you so much
[HTC Droid DNA] RhinoShock:
Hey guys, I recently replaced my screen and its all working perfectly except for the proximity sensor. I replaced the screen with a white one so I don't know if that's why its acting funky, but no matter what app to test it I use, it never shows any values for the prox sensor. This leads me to believe its always in the 'on' state, so that when I make a call the screen instantly goes black (thinking that my face is up to it) and doesn't come back on until the call ends. I was just wondering if anyone came across how to fix this maybe with a kernel setting or app, just so I don't have to worry about it anymore.

Thanks for anyone's help in advance!!
[HTC Droid DNA] RhinoShock:
Well just in case anyone runs into this problem again, here's how to fix it. After I tried to take it apart again and add scotch tape colored with black sharpie, it didn't seem to do anything. So I went and looked for an app that can do it, and I found 'Rezound proximity sensor calibrator' it allows you to set the threshold of how close an object is to the sensor and will tell you if its triggered (near) or not triggered, (far). Just trial and error the settings until it changes state and test the sensor with a phone call!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] xWolf13:
As reading from an article from Android Police, SamMobile has gotten a pre-release build of Jellybean 4.3.. This build has now been ported to the Galaxy S 4 (GT-i9505).. As for the users. Please do not ask if this can be ported. It can't right now. We don't even have CM10.1 (which one day we will of course). Just wanted to share this (:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ronman71:
Thanks for the tip. At the risk of sounding stupid, I don't want to mess up my sd card. I've read that sometimes reformatting ruins the card. I really enjoy cm10 and aokp, but I can't use my card with those roms. I may take your advice, though. Do you recommend any particular method or application?

I changed my card to exfat from fat32 and reason one was i couldnt transfer any files 4gb or larger so i switched to exfat no problems

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ronman71:
Also, does fat32 have a slower read/transfer rate than exfat? Or is speed unrelated to file system?

Seriously, you're most likely never going to encounter a >4GB file on your phone. Even a high resolution 1080p movie would be less than that.

Hi,

do you use Wisbar ?

When I upgrade my Qtek 2020 to Sin Merged rom, same problem occurs.

But I find out it was because Wisbar 2.1.10.

Just when upgrade Wisbar to last beta 2.1.14 the problem was solved.

Without Wisbar, caller id worked just fine.

Hi, I can't receive texts on my One V. It still happens if I do a full wipe, persists across all roms. Sending texts is fine, data is fine, calls are fine, so I don't know what's going on.

Any ideas?

most likely your APNs are incorrect.

check with your carrier AT&T for the correct ones and change them
[HTC One V] Zxo0oxz:
I don't have at&t, that information isn't up to date.

Anyways, I fixed it. It involved having my account re-provisioned through customer support, and then flashing back to stock and running the app used to activate your phone. Let's hope I never have to do it again.

Hi everybody,

I didn't download or flash anything recently, and was on 4.1.1 stock firmware. My phone was working perfectly last night. I woke up this morning, and it was stuck on the Samsung boot logo and very hot from the charger.

I was panicking, and quickly loaded up ODIN and tried to download the same firmware I had before. I can't get a yellow bar in ODIN no what I try. I never had this issue before. I have been reading and trying different things for the past 4 hours. I am using the original USB cable, tried all the different USB ports, a different PC, re-installing the drivers, re-installing Kies, re-installing ODIN, and nothing seems to give me the yellow bar in ODIN.

I cannot boot into recovery mode, only download mode. Please help, I'm very worried my phone could be bricked somehow :(

Seems there is no PIT partition??

If it matters, here is what I get when I try to load firmware without the Yellow bar in ODIN:

If you want root here is a link to superoneclick

http://shortfuse.org/?page_id=2

But before you get started, don’t forget to enable USB debugging on your phone by going to Settings->Applications->Development and enabling “USB Debugging“.\

here are the instructions:

http://www.tomsguide.com/us/Root-Your-Android-Phone,review-1688-3.html

This will just give you root, not cwm. I search and see what I can find

Thanks, but that software is very outdated, I doubt it will work in ICS.

Edit: I did try it just to make sure, and it didn't work... says it's already rooted. Tried unrooting and then rooting again, but it crashes. I don't think it's meant to work on ICS.

System tweaks

System tweaks​

1. How can I "paint" notifications pull-down menu in the top bar?

Go to SpicagenMod settingS \ Interface \ Notification colors and choose a color for each entry in the "Statusbar notifications" and "Items notification"; "Notification bar" lets you make additional changes to the bar and colors.

2. How can I save battery power?

-from "System Settings" control which apps consume more battery and block them or set them so they suck less

-Then check with the app CPUSpy if the phone goes into DeepSleep:

if there is there any app that runs in the background and consumes

. Locate and disable

-use GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth only when needed, otherwise disable

-use 2G instead, switch to 3G only for data connections: it is preinstalled in the ROM Toggle2G that automatically manages the switch (but remember to disable it because otherwise you will not have data connection)

3. How do I see what's running in the background?

Go to Settings, Applications, Manage applications and check what apps are running, for safety always under applications, go to the Services running and check which services are run in the background

4. How can I speed up the execution of the app?

With the pro version of Titanium Pro go to / batch operations / manipulates data / activating "convert DB mode Wal" click it: system is much more responsive.

5. How can I save on the consumption of Ram?

-Not too heavy with both the home, with too many widgets, and the device with too many apps. The phone will have greater reactivity '.

6. How can I make a Nandroid Backup, because here we can not get into Recovery Mode?

With ImageForWindows, you can create a backup image of the Rom, crystallize it with all the settings and installed app. Simply make the backup procedure (full)

7. How to replace bootanimation?

With a file explorer with root access like Root Explorer go to / system / media and replace the bootanimation.zip file.

Or just remove the file, and we'll start the classic writing android that lights up.

9. How do I disable the apps that start up automatically?

Download app from the Play Store that makes access to the list of apps that start automatically on boot.

CAREFUL DO NOT DISABLE APPS SYSTEM

, (ie text messages, phone, market, 'Android system, ... otherwise the system becomes unstable!)

System maintenance

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE​

The following commands are all to be understood as to perform on a window Terminal Emulator pre-installed in ROM

To get more in-depth ram in case of remarkable system slowdowns type:

su (enter)

flush (enter)

-To compact database for faster access to the data type:

su (enter)

vac (enter)

-To realign app (especially if you installed new ones) in order to save on battery drain and ram type:

su (enter)

zepalign (enter)

-To Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache (often used to prevent various malfunctions of the system) type:

su (enter)

sclean (enter)

-To make a Fix permission (needed to resolve issues of app Force Close) enter:

su (enter)

fixfc (enter)

System reboot, after typing these commands, in many cases it will be very, very, very long: do not worry if the bootanimation runs for a long time and the system does not seem to restart.

And 'quite normal. Android is performing the routines start from scratch without reading the previous (now deleted because it caused errors) and eventually will boot more agile than before.
