Did you get a fix for your sixaxis problem, I got the same issue. :(
[HTC One X] Arona67:
hi guys , i have a RUU 3.14 ROM that i used it so many times for returning back my phone to stock rom and kernel , there was no problem at all , i used it many times , but today it won't install anymore and gives me the BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR . !!! i was on cyanogen rom and when i see this error for first time i restored my Stock rom from CWM , then installed Stock recovery and tried again but the Error still exist . what can i do now ?!!
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Return to stock with a stock nandroid backup.

But as you installed the stock rom back as you said you did why do you want to run the ruu.....its the same as returning to stock with nandroid backup. :confused:
[HTC One X] Arona67:
hi man , good to see you again , last time you saved me , i downloaded RUU rom from the link that you gave it to me and everything was fine , but yesterday i got this problem and i don't know where is the problem :(

yea , because my nandroid backup has Stock ROM but it's rooted and with N3kernel , so when i wanna install any updates form software updates form HTC it gives error , so i need to install RUU and create a new unrooted stock ROM nandroid backup
[HTC One X] robchongke:
i think you can still update if you're on stock(rooted) as long as you have stock recovery. is that right Mr Hofs?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Yes correct. Only root is no problem, but the system apps must all be present !
[HTC One X] Arona67:
i did it , i flashed Stock recovery and when i tried to install updates after rebooting the phone , installing process stoped on 50% with a Red icon on phone picture and i had to reboot phone . so do you think it's for my Stock recovery ?!! so can i ask you somethings ? can you give me a link for Stock recovery that you are using ? and what if it's not solving the problem ? :(
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Give me your main version !

Fastboot getvar version-main

Then i can give you a stock rom and recovery ;)
[HTC One X] Arona67:
3.20.401.1 it's main version

thank you man , you are great . :good:
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Ah yes that's why the ruu does not work. We can't downgrade the hboot to 3.14 software with a ruu.

Stock recovery

http://db.tt/pO3jumMa

You can restore this nandroid and flash back the stock recovery. Files are fresh and okey to use.

I can almost guarantee it works ;)
[HTC One X] Arona67:
thanks so much dude , just another question and i promise it will be the last :D , if i change the kernel it will cause problem on software updates ?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
To be short.....yes. :D

You can't update officially with a custom kernel
[HTC One X] Arona67:
sorry i'm asking again , so if i change the kernel how can i restore the Stock kernel ?!! i have to restore ROM or there is a way to return back stock kernel ?!!

and another question when my phone is locked and standby , Mobile DATA doesn't work and i have to turn phone On . i mean when somebody send me a message in apps like viber or whatsapp and ... i do not notice until i turn phone on sometimes i miss some important messages on this apps and i receive them after 2 or more hours because i can't turn my phone On every 1 min :( ... it's for the kernel ?!! is there any way to set data works always ?!!
[HTC One X] Arona67:
sorry i'm posting again , but i'm still waiting can someone answer me please ? :(
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Getting stock modules + kernel back is indeed to restore the stock nandroid

....mobile data thingy cant remember and never had it myself
[HTC One X] hpnxfox:
If you using stock rom data disconnecting could be because data connection is included in power saving feature! Try disable power save from notification status bar and click on it to select what to include, or you can do that from settings in power or battery menu-not exactly sure of position not using stock rom for ages!
[HTC One X] Chudawg62:

Hello I am look for a rom that has the Samsung galaxy s4 easy mode on it for an at&t Samsung galaxy s3 (SGH-I747) Is there one I search with no results. Thanks a bunch :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jayRokk:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] serpents:
I am look for the one that gets rid of the bottom home screen bar (the one that has the phone, internet ect most used apps that don't scroll with the rest of the home screen). Can u point me to a rom that has an easy mode like that (the s4). I don't like the easy mode on the stock s3 and this is for my dad who is older and the larger icon of the s4 version easy mode is nice for that. Thanks.

Edit:

Or is there a way to get the s3 easy mode to look like the s4?

"Best rom" posts are not allowed on xda. You are encouraged to try roms on your own to see which is best for you, as what qualifies as the "best" rom, varies highly between each user. Only you can decide which is best for you. Both development sections have tons of great options. Take time to fully read the ops, and you will be way ahead of the game.

The power button on my S3 (SGH-i747) is pretty messed up. When i'm not touching it, it decides to register a press and completely messes up everything im doing on the phone. It has such frequent reboots that i can barely boot into recovery. The only way i can actually boot is by holding the phone horizontally with the power button facing down. Is there any fix to this? I'm on CM10.1.0 so would flashing back to stock decrease the sensitivity of this button? Or is it necessary to fix at the shop?

Also i have a cracked screen, so im not sure it would be accepted under the warranty even if it's unrooted.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Danvdh:
Hardware failure, repair it or get a new phone

nothing you can do, the flex cable that connect's the button to the board is either busted or shorted
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] s1mpd1ddy:
I'm having the same issue.

There's absolutely nothing I can do? I thought maybe if I'd open up the device and tinker with it... maybe I can get it working.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] r8revealed:
Yes this is quite an annoying problem. If you're having the same problem, are you able to boot into download mode? I can't for some reason.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] s1mpd1ddy:
Something like this you don't want to boot into download mode. What if it resets while you're pushing a file? then your whole phone will be messed up.

I got mine to boot. My method is a bit unorthodox though.... i kept pressing the power button throughout the boot process up until the lock screen. Once it finally loads... i flicked the power button a few times really hard.... it seems to stay in the position but remains extremely sensitive.. as in, i dont even have to press it to turn off the screen.

sucks man... i think this is happening to a lot of power users. I'm literally one week past my warranty. :(
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] r8revealed:
Yeah i didnt want anything to happen while anything is installing etc. I somehow got into recovery, but it shut down within a second. (thankfully the first option in cwm is reboot, so that saved me). I can't return for warranty because I'm rooted on CM10.1.0, which was why i wanted to attempt unrooting (but that seems impossible at the moment).

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1753574

That thread seems to be the solution to our problem, but i feel that if i open it up, something worse will happen. Right now, the phone boots up fine when held horizontally (but shuts down ~2min later) and i can easily backup my data.

One strange thing that i've noticed with this problem that maybe isn't right. Normally , do you have to hold down the power button to shut it off? I always used to think that a power menu would show, THEN you could select shut down, but here, it just shuts down. The power menu flashes sometimes, but shuts down anyway. This may also have me believe that something other than the power button is the problem.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] s1mpd1ddy:
if you hold the power button for 5 seconds or more , it will skip that power menu and reboot. So this still sounds like power button to me.

thanks for the link, been searching everywhere... so fckin hard to search all the S3 threads on XDA. They need to consolidate
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aamir123:
Were you able to fix your problem with the fix in that link? I seem to be having the same problem as you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] r8revealed:
No, I ended up buying a new phone (I was going to upgrade anyway). I took out the power button, but that wasn't the problem. In a way, it was the button under the button that was sensitive. I would have to take out the motherboard to see the exact problem.

I bought this one x which comes with locked bootloader, no root,

Stock recovery with s off and super CID(111111). It is prompting an ota update to 1.28.708.10

Is it alright to install the OTA? Will I lose S-off or the super CID? Any harm in flashing

the OTA with S-Off?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
No just install it. 1.28 software is very old btw ! Jellybean latest software is already up to 3.14 - 3.20 .....
[HTC One X] 3498BoyZ:
And you cant have S-OFF on your Device, only unlocked bootloader :D

And yes you can update
[HTC One X] bosas200:
Yes he can because some hox come with factory s off
[HTC One X] 3498BoyZ:
Thnks but why some HOX came with S-OFF ?
[HTC One X] crossmission:
china and s-off

there are a few places, using official htc software, in china that you can send your HOX to get s-off, some people did, sold their devices and some lucky guy got it, there are of course the preview devices that were sent to sites, magazines and some devs with s-off from HTC, so yes, there are s-off'ed HOXs running in the wild, if I could I would send mine too.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Some phones come back from repair with s-off.....some come out the factory with s-off.....

Just happend to some !

You can also run the 3.14.708 ruu which you can download from here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2189048

Then you have stock JB software on your phone.
[HTC One X] yankies77:
Thanks a lot guys! I am OTAing at the moment, installing the 3.14.708.28 right now, Chinese people have a way to get phones s-off and super CID. Not sure exactly how they do it but I got it like this, it is refurbished though. So basically after unlocking the bootloader,root and a custom recovery I can flash a rom just like old gen phones.. Copy the zip to sd, perform wipes and install zip from sd.. No need to flash the boot.img seperately from fastboot.. Is that true?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Basically its true yes, but.....many rom devs took out the boot.img flash script because not many people have a s-off device.

Do if you hit a bootloop its wise to flash the boot.img manually
[HTC One X] yankies77:
Thanks a lot for the information Mr Hofs, really appreciate it!
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
So all is fine now ?
[HTC One X] Tmobilefan906:

[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
You really need to stay away from the hox section. This all is NOT for the hox +.
[HTC One X] Tmobilefan906:
Yea...it's been a long time owning a HTC one x variant.. good thing I'm knowledgeable on things lol...it is nice that I got a couple of these pre-s offd.. I can supercid via fastboot as I already have s off

---------- Post added at 09:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:36 AM ----------

if i wanted to flash the ruu with the 2.15 radio from androidruu, do i still need to lock the bootloader even though im already s off?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Not sure anymore, but what you need to do is to start the conversations about this phone in the hox + section because it can be confusing for hox owners.
[HTC One X] Tmobilefan906:
I'm sorry. I posted on this thread cuz u were one of the very few that had a more recent post.
[HTC One X] crossmission:
You do know that my comment is from 2013, yes?

lol

So, if you're S-OFF you can flash the radio separately if I remember correct.

But, despite it being a beautiful phone with a good camera and arguably

the best form factor ever with the three capacitive buttons that can be

swiped for screen on-off and the 2.5D display,

it's a REALLY old phone, and unless you got it for under 70 bucks

it's not worth the money and the time unless you're an enthusiast and you want the experience of owning it.

if you flash a stock RUU I believe you will lose s-off or maybe it won't even flash. Do some research on both HOX and HOX+ forums since they run similar chipset(the + is just factory oveclocked).
[HTC One X] Tmobilefan906:
I meant the entire ruu..I only mentioned the radio as I see that evitare only has three ruu. I thought if we were s off, we could run any regional ruu. As long as it's meant for this device
[HTC One X] Tmobilefan906:
I have s off and I still had to fastboot flash boot.img. Why?
[HTC One X] crossmission:
I can't remember anymore, it's been 4 years since I last played with the HOX, I believe that all the procedures remain the same since it's an older device and noone bothered to look into it more since it was running a Tegra chip, that made it a difficult device to work with as for example NVIDIA never open sourced the kernel and everything had to be written from zero.

Being S-OFF on the HOX just gives you the luxury of flashing radios separately and engineering bootloaders (I think) and being able to return the phone to untampered for warranty purposes.

I know I'm not a big help but this is the reason I turned to Qualcomm based devices that are easier to get custom kernels and ROMs then.

Also bear in mind that I'd spend dozens of hours researching for that device progressively with the development so I could see the steps on new things one by one, there's probably a megathread with all that info somewhere in here.

EDIT: Why do you need a different region RUU? Do you need to keep it stock? There aren't any updates anymore, if you like the stock look try Android Revolution ROM by mike1986, it's not being developed anymore but it's a great rom with great battery life and all the HTC goodness without anything else bogging it down.

I'd love to get my hands on an S-off hox+ or even a normal one. that feeling it had in your hands was amazing.
[HTC One X] Tmobilefan906:
I have one I can sell you

---------- Post added at 06:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 PM ----------

I wanted a diff region so I can get a newer Android version. I had an HTC one XL and I loved it! Roms were plentiful, diff radios etc. But I had the one xl that had that twisting screen issue. I even uploaded a video on YouTube about it. Haha...under marknoll79.

I got the two HTC one x+ on eBay and got them for cheap as they were pre-released HTC one X's.. the ones with the run tell HTC developer edition. They came with s off, but I'm thinking it must be a fake s off cuz I still had to flash the boot.img. Lol.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Not necessarily fake s-off. The boot img partition wasn't completely free accessible with s-off therefore the boot img had to be flashed seperatly (something to do with the tegra chipset and type of bootloader if i remember correctly)

Getting the hox + to another region is the same as flashing any still available custom rom. They are updated to the latest Android version. So flashing another region is kinda obsolete.
[HTC One X] Tmobilefan906:
Tyvm..u been extremely helpful!

---------- Post added at 10:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:36 PM ----------

Is there such thing as a fake s off? Lol. Could I run facepalm and would it hurt anything if I were actually s off?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Never encountered fake s-off. If it says s-off in the bootloader it's definitely s-off all the way. The device will function fine if it's s-off (or not) but flashing wrong stuff is easier so make sure whatever you flash is definitely meant for the specific device.
[HTC One X] Tmobilefan906:
So..anything with a tegra chip should be fine???. I was being a smarty pants BTW about fake s off. Lol.

And I wanna supercid..for grins and giggles.

Fastboot write CID 11111111. Correct?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Yeah that should write the supercid. But not "anything with a tegra chip" you can only flash stuff meant for the hox + !

And as i advised before.... keep yourself in the hox + section. This will get you to a paperweight
[HTC One X] Tmobilefan906:
Yes. I know. Lol. I been hacking for 10 years now
[HTC One X] Tmobilefan906:
Yes...my bad...keannt to say HTC one xs that have tegra. Sorry
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Also not one xs that have tegra.... Hox + only :p
[HTC One X] crossmission:
I think Mr Hofs covered everything I had to say, just use supercid, flash any custom ROM available for the

plus

model, as I mentioned before the boot.img thing is probably going to stay for some older roms that were meant for bootloader unlocked phones but some might be optimized for both that and S-OFF phones, don't bother going for a stock different region ROM, you will have a better experience with a custom ROM and one of the latest kernels that were developed for the device(speed, smoothness, battery life).

I don't have the time and the energy to spend around messing with a phone(reinstalling everything, troubleshooting etc) at this point but I miss it, imagine I'm too updates behind on the custom rom for my Note 4.
