So What do now,or if something wrong with the method?I want to flash custom recovery of nexus prime but before that I want to StockRecovery.img backup.
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
I also want to know, if I can pull system dump before flashing custom recovery or after flashing custom recovery?
[HTC Desire X] dansou901:
You are sure the adb binary as well as the recovery.img are present in the directory Android?
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Earlier there was error as u can see, then I put all the files from adb binary folder to c/Android folder which also contains the fast boot binary file and unlock code bin file. Then after doing this u can see there was no adb error but it says recovery image cannot load. I don't have stock recovery img, but I have custom recovery img of nexus which is not in the c/Android folder which I will flash after making stock recovery backup. What to do to make stock recovery img backup. Tell me the steps.

I also want pull system dump. Do they have stock recovery img in it. Can I pull system dump before flashing custom recovery or not. If so then how?

Sorry for my bad English and long reply!
[HTC Desire X] Ghost1510:
Dude i dnt thnk system dump contains recovry.img becuz system dump its only retrive /system folder in ur root.

So system dump dsnt contain recovery.img in it ..

If u successfully unlocked ur fne den wait for flashing custom recovery becuz u r nly one who hav stock recovery nd it is very imp file so wait for sometime..
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Yeah I know, but I don't want brick my device in order to take stock recovery img backup. So please someone tell me simple proper working steps.
[HTC Desire X] Ghost1510:
Since i searchd on google about backing up stock recovery bt no satisfactory result found..

Now [MENTION=2988582]NexusPrime[/MENTION] and [MENTION=830797]ckpv5[/MENTION] help us to backup stock recovery..
[HTC Desire X] xpirt:
You should now recovery partition and on terminal use dd command (need root). Or you can boot only the custom recovery and make a backup of actual recovery.

xpirt
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Look I have just unlocked my bootloader, I have fast boot binary files, adb binary files & unlock bin file in c/Android folder. Tell me what steps & file I need to make backup.

If custom recovery can make stock recovery img backup then [MENTION=5397255]Ghost1510[/MENTION] can do it. Tell the steps.
[HTC Desire X] xpirt:
"fastboot boot recovery.img"

This will boot your custom recovery. Now you know what to do ;)

xpirt
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Hey please help, I am still noob in the end & don't want to brick the device. Please tell the steps in detail & where to find this fastboot recovery img & place it where? Please do justice!
[HTC Desire X] xpirt:
You said you have unlocked your bootloader this means you know how to use fastboot commands, download your custom recovery (if there is one) place it within fastboot folder near fastboot.exe and adb.exe. From cmd type "fastboot boot custom_downloaded_recovery.img", it will boot into the custom recovery without replacing the stock one. Now press Backup and backup Recovery partition.

xpirt
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Okay will do it & let you know soon.
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Merry Christmas guys I have made recovery.emmc & also made boot.emmc backup both are in WIN file formats. [MENTION=753984]xpirit[/MENTION] thanks very much, One more thing there are options in TWRP to take system backup. Should I Do it for building our deodexed roms?
[HTC Desire X] xpirt:
Glad to hear it worked! I made you a christmas gift ;)

To build custom roms, you can also backup system partition, also pull /system folder with adb or simply on recovery go to Advanced->File Manager and copy /system folder to sd card.

xpirt
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
By the way my phone memory in computer shows 180 my, will it possible to take system backup in it.
[HTC Desire X] xpirt:
I don't think so.. You should have atleast 500mb free as /system folder is more than 400mb.

xpirt
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
So It means I will follow this way - simply on recovery go to Advanced->File Manager and copy /system folder to sd card.

I have not rooted & flashed the custom recovery yet. Are you sure I can do above steps?

Also, should I rename the win files to img file of stock recovery & boot image before uploading here?
[HTC Desire X] xpirt:
Yes, rename to recovery.img and boot.img.

Then go to Mount->Mount /system, after that you can copy your /system folder to sdcard.

xpirt
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
I have copied the system folder to sd card folder by going to Advanced option - file manager - select system file - paste to sdcard.

Before that I have also gone to Mount option then selected only system option but nothing happens after that, so I have to come back to main menu of TWRP.
[HTC Desire X] xpirt:
Yeah you have just to check the /system partition, then copy. Anyway if it is copied, see if there are all files in copied folder (app, etc, lib, etc.).

xpirt
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Only system should checked or all other options like sdcard & emmc should also be checked?
[HTC Desire X] xpirt:
It's not important who are checked except system, this must be checked. If checked then copy to sd.

xpirt
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Hey my phone closed while copying and also my laptop shutdown during the same process. Now my phone not turning on:(:(:(:eek::eek:

Hey it's vibrated after few minutes, just like [MENTION=5571854]atifjay[/MENTION] mentioned. I guess my device is broken now & have to visit service center

:(
[HTC Desire X] xpirt:
Are you sure you didn't cut /system folder instead of copying it? If yes, copy the /system folder from sdcard to your pc first, then try to revert back from sdcard in recovery.

xpirt
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
I am pretty sure I copied it but it was in copy process when mobile closed. I don't know if it copied anything.

Actually it vibrated 4-5 times after few minutes, same thing happened to [MENTION=5571854]atifjay[/MENTION]. It's not turning on.
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Again it's vibrated after 5-10 minutes, what is happening?
[HTC Desire X] xpirt:
Not turning on what you mean? You can see splash screen, bootanimation, can enter on bootloader?

xpirt
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Yeah, it's dead. I think I have visit service center.
[HTC Desire X] xpirt:
In this case I don't think it's because of copying system folder. If the system folder would be messed up you had to see atleast splash screen and you could access to bootloader too.

xpirt
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Hey my laptop shutdown during the process, have anything to do with it?
[HTC Desire X] GtrCraft:
Maybe but it's still weird you can't even acces the hboot screen or fastboot. Because only the system would be damaged
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
I have Google it & people have this issue & vibration in between, they said it's motherboard over heating problem, so leave the device till its cool down & then it will turn on. Some one also suggested to put the phone in freezer for 10 minutes. All suggestions from different HTC models.
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
My device turned on after keeping it away from use 30 mins or so with battery removed from device, but I turned off again to insert my simcards & sdcard but again it's not turning on. I think it's a over heating hardware issue. So I will try the same thing that worked earlier. Wish me luck Santa :p
[HTC Desire X] Ghost1510:
Congo nd thnkq abt recovrry and boot dude hope you uploaded soon.

Bt sad about your fne :(

One suggestion bro dnt plug ur usb loose to ur fne

Bcuz of dat it happned. Its happned to me also.

Sometym it get overheated when do u use recovery at max tym period becuz it uses max resources.

So after some recovery work put ur fne into nrmal mode or switch off..

Btw merry xmass bro

And thanks [MENTION=5132229]xpirt[/MENTION] for helping us..
[HTC Desire X] arindam4u:
[MENTION=2448700]rocky869[/MENTION] this overheating thing also happened to me once. Keeping the battery disconnected from my phone for some good hours and then connecting and pressing power switch made it to boot.

I realized it was because of custom recovery. Cause, I can reboot but shutdown made the phone dead again.

Choosing appropriate recovery solved my problem.

I downloaded .rar file from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=46239003 and extracted the recovery from there.
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Thanks guys for info, My device is on in the morning, & the first thing I did was to transfer my stock recovery img & boot img to Nexus 7 via blue tooth & then factory data reset because another weird thing happened yesterday, I made the copy of TWRP folder in C drive, but after I restarted my laptop from unknown shutdown, I found that files in the TWRP folder lost & deleted. So I will upload soon stock recovery img & boot img from Nexus 7.

[MENTION=4435825]arindam4u[/MENTION] So should I flash custom recovery of Nexus prime? I think u flashed stock recovery img of different version.

[MENTION=5397255]Ghost1510[/MENTION] what you say about flashing custom recovery of Nexus prime? Is it good?
[HTC Desire X] Ghost1510:
Yes i hv been used since 3months dude i dn face any pblm

Flash the custom recovery which is u uploaded in our section...

And what abt our stock recovery deleted??

Please back it up first because it is important at thr tym of this fne pblm u js faced

When u flash custom recpvery then u cannot able to backup stock recpvery so back it up first.. then flash twrp..
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
OP updated with attachments of Stock Recovery & Boot image. Please guys check if u r able to download them and extract the rar file.Please keep it as a backup copy.

[MENTION=5397255]Ghost1510[/MENTION] So I m going to flash the TWRP of nexus prime in couple of days & root my device,but this problem of overheating will be solved?Are u sure?

One more thing,did u zipped ur systemdump & reduce the size for upload.And tried any file cuuter/splitter for dividing into small sizes for uploding?

ask any developer for uploading help.

How to install the google playstore on this device?

Hey guys,

I successfully unlocked my bootloader, rooted my device and did a backup - following steps 1 - 3 in this description.

So now I'd like to install google playstore. But I don't succeed!

-> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1650222

I followed the instructions in the XDA forum - but it seems that you can only replace an existing playstore by a modded version.

Anyway after installing the unmodded version when I try to open the playstore, the app closes immediately.

-> http://www.talkingmobi.com/add-google-services-phone-fastcardtech/

This forum deals exactly with that topic. I proceeded with all steps but I have the same problem. After following all the described steps and rebooting my phone, I try to open the playstore. But the app window is closed immediately. When I have a look ( with "Super Manager") into: \system\app, the playstore .apk disappeared again although I copied it there before rebooting.

So did any of you succeed installing the playstore on this phone?

I guess I have to install any of the custom roms - but so far they all still have quite a lot of bugs??

Can't I actually just download and flash the English ( not Chinese) version of Android 4.1? Then all this Chinese stuff disappears and installing the playstore is not a problem any more?

Thanks for your help!
[HTC Desire X] djinn0:
Hi,

I have just discovered that the mono and the dual sim are like 2 different device.so i have some question.. i have a dual sim with 4.1.1 and sense 4.1. Can i (after root) install a custom rom of the mono sim desire x? Like the custom rom of the mono sim desire x with sense 4+? And, If HTC update the mono sim desire x to kitkat, they also update the dual sim device or not? Thank you for the info
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
[MENTION=5630008]lierre12[/MENTION] I think u have Chinese roms which don't allow Google play market. I & [MENTION=5397255]Ghost1510[/MENTION] have dual sim(Gsm+Gsm) version of Desire X with India based 4.1 jellybean roms & it has Google play support. So wait till any of us upload the system dump of our rom. I don't know any International version of 4.1 jellybean rom.

[MENTION=4019655]djinn0[/MENTION] I assume mono means single sim version of HTC Desire X. Don't flash any roms made for Mono version of Desire X. Lots of people already broken there devices doing it.
[HTC Desire X] djinn0:
yes with mono i mean single. so also single sim ruu too?
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
[MENTION=4019655]djinn0[/MENTION] I don't think HTC will update HTC DESIRE X with Kitkat.By the way if you have system backup, then can you upload it for our deodexed roms & custom rom development?
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
I have no idea about that though. But in this thread we are trying to develop our own custom roms, by taking help of developers of single sim device.
[HTC Desire X] djinn0:
also we dont have a kernel for OC?

anyone tried to flash single sim RUU/stock rom?

i have write an email to htc to know if they update our device.
[HTC Desire X] lierre12:
...How to install the google playstore on this device...

[MENTION=2448700]rocky869[/MENTION]: Thanks, yes, I guess that's exactly the problem. I bought my mobile in China. Would one of you be so kind to upload your system dump? :)

What do you mean with "dual sim(Gsm+Gsm)" -> are there different types of our mobiles? So I might not be able to use your Rom?

Isn't there any way to get rid of the "Chinese Rom" on my phone?
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
There are I think 3 models as far as I know which are launched in India -

HTC DESIRE X (GSM) - SINGLE SIM DEVICE(PROTOU)

HTC DESIRE XD(GSM+GSM) - DUAL SIM(PROTODUG)

HTC DESIRE XC(CDMA+GSM)-DUAL SIM(??)

This thread is for the second one- Protodug

U may check phone arena, pdb website for full details.U may also install CPU-Z app from somewhere & see which model u have.

I guess u have to have root access to remove Chinese app from mobile. I am still noob to help you out. Maybe ask developers of single sim device.

:)
[HTC Desire X] djinn0:
i have some confusion. my model is t329w but its wcdma/gsm+ gsm
[HTC Desire X] lierre12:
[MENTION=2448700]rocky869[/MENTION]: I checked my model with CPU-Z and it is identical: Protodug! So your system dump might work - if you post it. ;)

I searched a little more about how to remove the chinese rom and I ended up in the old thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2250089&page=2

But the question for the google playstore was never answered. Do you think members like neXusPrime might know it or who?
[HTC Desire X] Ghost1510:

You can try to flash gapps for 4.1? but make a backup beforehand
[HTC Desire X] nor-ric:
Hi guys, I'm new to this phone. I have the gsm/wcdma + gsm version (bought in Italy).

Really great phone overall, but some small issues (as always :p) are there:

1) Google Play Store is present and works out of the box but it doesn't show the preinstalled apps (e.g. dropbox, youtube, etc.) among the "my apps" (or whatever it's called in English) section and of course doesn't prompt me to update them.

2) if I take a screenshot I get the usual animation but the image is not saved and an error message is put in the notification bar: the issue is I can't read the message because it's too long and it gets trimmed.

3) google text to speech crashes if set to Italian. I haven't been able to make it say even the example sentence, instantly crash...

4) only 185MB of free space for data??

What's your opinion about these issues? thanks!
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
[MENTION=4019655]djinn0[/MENTION] Yes my device is also (WCDMA/GSM+GSM). Actually wcdma is there to help you identify which sim slot will support the 3G/Hspa Internet speed. So u have Protodug & u can see ur device model no. is T329w which is the one for which this thread made for.

[MENTION=4730574]nor-ric[/MENTION] My internal storage in PC also shows 185 mb, but in mobile phone storage is 1gb free. I don't have faced other issues u mentioned, so can't comment on it.
[HTC Desire X] djinn0:
Rocky se are without a kernel?
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
I don't know. By the way today flashed custom recovery & Rooted my device. Then pulled system dump through adb commands, zipped it to 393 mb size, now uploading to mediafire, 30% complete, will update OP with links in few hours or so because my Internet speed is slow.

Again my device was down with over heating issue of recovery work, so tried the same method as mentioned under Disclaimer in OP thread to cool down my device. Then after an hour or so tried to turn on but failed. So tried power button + volume up button together, it worked.

This device has serious overheating problem when you work in recovery. Hope someone fix it future. :)
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
OP updated with system dump link.Guys who have broken their device you can ask developers like [MENTION=4350492]neXus PRIME[/MENTION] [MENTION=5132229]xpirt[/MENTION] [MENTION=830797]ckpv5[/MENTION] [MENTION=4872201]Will_Xda[/MENTION] [MENTION=744517]GTR[/MENTION]_Craft to make use of this system dump for recovery of your devices.

Also its a request to these developers to build a deodexed rom or custom roms for us through this system dump.
[HTC Desire X] nor-ric:
Number 1) solved by itself, after a while. Google play was probably scanning all of the apps.

Solved number 3) by updating google-text-to-speech.

I can't for the life of me solve number 2) by the way. I've tried to manually create the /Pictures/Screenshots folder (screenshots should be saved there, shouldn't they?), but to no avail. Can you guys take screenshots (power+volumedown)?

Also, in system settings and in file manager it states the sdcard size is only 185MB. I don't exactly understand the previous answer from rocky869: what happens if I fill up the 185mb?

One more question: can you export your contacts to sdcard? It seems there's no option to do it.
[HTC Desire X] Ghost1510:
Hushh thankgod

Finally system dump uploaded thnks to rocky

Now waiting for full sense port..
[HTC Desire X] GtrCraft:
It's GtrCraft...
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Sorry,plz dont mind.we need some customisation of our stock rom such as full sense port & others.We need help.
[HTC Desire X] GtrCraft:
I read through porting roms from single to dual sim. And it is almost impossible
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Hey we don't want to port ur single sim rom, we just need customised version version of our Stock rom, which I uploaded. Such as full Sense features like unlock weather animation, lock skins & animation, more themes, option of live wallpapers, etc.

One more thing, if I factory reset from setting option my mobile, will I lose TWRP & Superuser?
[HTC Desire X] GtrCraft:
If you choose factory reset from settings you will go to TWRP and there will be nothing happening
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
I don't get it, is it the same factory reset which we have done before rooted & flashed TWRP. I mean is it safe to do. By the way I have also made backup of each partition through TWRP(Nandroid Backup).

I m refering to the "Reset Phone" under "Backup & reset" in Settings.
[HTC Desire X] djinn0:
for first i think we need a custom kernel, so we can obtain root in our stock rom and do some thing (OC, unistall stock app and other)
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Hey check 1st post of this thread.We have already rooted our device & flashed custom recovery TWRP.

I assume OC means Overclocking the device with the help of custom kernels,but that's for performance improvement & may cause battery drain also.we don't have custom kernels.
[HTC Desire X] dansou901:
You'll first need the kernel sources for custom kernels...
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
Hey can you please help us in modding our lite sense to full Sense for the stock rom which I uploaded. We basically need HTC sense modifications. We know single sim developers have very little time for us. So we aren't demanding much, just HTC sense modification to full Sense. ;)
[HTC Desire X] Ghost1510:
Yea dude atleast full sense or sense 5 mods

Please devs we need ur help..
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
[MENTION=5397255]Ghost1510[/MENTION] hey bro if I phone reset from settings, will I loose TWRP & Superuser?

Also can I flash safely Lidroid toggles with the methods mentioned in OP?
[HTC Desire X] Ghost1510:
Buddy u hav to jus root nd flash ur fne wid twrp

Through that twrp u can delete stock apps thats wht i did.

First mount system and through file manager of twrp delete all stock apks and their odex files that u dnt want.

Thats it.. careful of deletion of apks..

First take nandroid backup..
[HTC Desire X] rocky869:
[MENTION=5132229]xpirt[/MENTION] Can I use Terminal Emulator of "Rom Toolbox Pro" app & disable power save option from notification panel?

I have seen one thread for HTC desire x in which you mentioned the methods of disabling. Will it work with dual sim also?
