The question of which is best or most stable is impossible to answer, so I don't. I refuse to use Sense so I'd only suggest using an aosp ROM.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DanGeorges:
For my money, I have used Turges ROM, based on the t mobile version.

Fast, stable, and everything works, including hotspot.

It's Sense based, and with Sense 5 toolbox, works perfectly.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lovethebuzz:
Thanks Timmmmmmeh. (hope you dont mind). and the DanGeorgesfrom cleveland...

i just want a vanilla flavour slim rom , dont really want or need sense, the clock and location and weather widget on the lockscreen does my head in and all the extra's sense does and offers just chew resources and battery , all just want a dope phone....

I guess what im asking is that in your experiments was there a slim vanilla type rom that stands or stood out?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
I ran KarbonKat for quite some time and it was a very good ROM. Anything by [MENTION=2836769]jrior001[/MENTION] is good as well, he's always producing very good ROMs, so maybe check out EOS too.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lovethebuzz:
help please, real noob i guess,

help please. Im just a real noob i guess,

I am attempting to install the slimkat or the karbonkat rom,

both fail to install due to binary updater blah blah and also fail to sideload.

I did a wipe from twerp and attempted again and it fails.

I attempted to restore the nandorid back up from twrp which failed so i restored the twrp backup which works.

what to do so that the install of the slim or karbon kat works, without binary updater error???
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
I need to know your bootloader details (the first five lines) and your recovery version. Before giving me those though you should probably read the Evita FAQ thread because your answer most likely exists there already.

Thank you for your encouragement and the time & effort you put into the evita thread...

After painstakingly & correctly following your guide, finally a few days after first soft bricking it after soft bricking it attempting a flash wihout any real idea and CWM I have Karbon kat installed.

I strongly recommend to anyone starting out to flash a custom rom with a telstra One XL from ebay com au for real cheap which I did, just follow the steps below in the guide by timaa and not waste time on smelly red herrings elsewhere

1. HTC DEV Bootload unlock

2. flash img twrp 2.8.4.0 and back up your original OS (do not factory reset the phone from the phone menu only do the wipes from within the twrp as you will wipe out your original OS and be up the creek without a paddle so to speak)

3. then do the rumrunner,

4. then the super cid,

5.then the flash the firmware

Then you install whatever rom from the twrp installer.

Thanks again for the instructions it just takes a bit of effort concentrating long enough to complete all the steps but its pretty simple

cheers to timmaaa

Nov 26 2012, 18:37:14:-1

I've run the program about 10-15 times, and after a factory reboot (don't worry, I already backed up all my pics/data) and the main problem I've hit is when I get to the

adb shell ln -s /data/local/tmp/xpwn /data/local/tmp/busybox , I get the error message "link failed File exists". The adb shell data/local/tmp/xpwn has success, and now, after I fiddled with the RUU (whoops) the CID reads: (bootloader) cid: HTC__001 .

I'm really sorry about the complication here with the HTC cid, but previously it was reading as 11111111 yet not actually unlocking the bootloader (I tried redeeming the tag through the HTCdev site multiple times). Any help with this issue would be much appreciated!!

Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
What do you mean when you say you fiddled with the RUU? And you're saying that your CID used to be SuperCID (11111111) but now it's HTC__001? I need more information, specific information, in order to assist you properly.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mdaines:
Sure. So I was trying to find a way around the problem I was having with unlocking the bootloader, and did some reading.. found someone who said to run the fastboot oem rebootRUU, and then the unlock. So I booted it up into RUU once, then restarted it. What other info do you need?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
So how exactly did you change the CID from 11111111 to HTC__001?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mdaines:
When I had trouble getting the cid to change, I tried some other ones that I read about working (like 22222222, and then the HTC__001. It didn't accept the new ones, but maybe it did accept the HTC__001 somehow.

hello Sir, I hope you are doing great.

i just wanted to ask you some questions about an at&t htc one x (evita) i bought few monts ago, i hope yu have time to answer me; i'm sorry if im bothering you, i'm just a noob.

when i bought the phone on amazon it came with stock jelly bean 4.1.1, hboot 2.14, i already rooted the phone, htc dev unlocked it and s-off'd it, i wish i could install in it the cyanogenmod 10.0.0 stable version but when i flash it the touch screen goes unresponsive due to the touchscreen driver not been compatible with cm 10.0.0, i've been triying to downgrade it but unfortunatelly the thread here on xda was deleted and i couldn't see o how to do it. my quiestions are:

coud i achive this by running an older RUU ?? ive found the files here androidruu.com/?developer=Evita

since the phone is already s-off and unlocked could i use any of those files ? my plan is to run this one : RUU_EVITA_UL_ICS_40_S_Cingular_US_2.20.502.7_Radio _0.19as.32.09.11_2_10.105.32.25L_release_271865_si gned.exe

is it very possible to get a brick if I use that file to downgrade my hboot version and the toucscreen firmware ??

Thank you very much for your time and help
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Ok. Why that CID though, it isn't even a CID for this device. This could have really screwed you up, if the bootloader won't unlock with this CID you're gonna be stuck with a paperweight because now you can't run any Evita RUU'S. One last thing to try would be writing the original CID back, but I doubt it's going to work because I'm pretty sure you can only write the CID once while s-on. Anyway:

fastboot oem writecid CWS__001

Transmitted via Bacon
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
If you're s-off you can run any Evita RUU whether it's forwards or backwards. But why do you want to flash that ROM? It's ancient, it's several Android versions old and there have been many improvements since then. I'd strongly advise you find a more recent ROM to flash instead.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Giancarlosc:
The thing is that i need to use any version of android lower than 4.2 due to the wiimote incompatibility issue with 4.2 and higer, that's why I want cm 10.0. I didn't quite understand your answer, is that a valid process to downgrade the touch panel firmware ? thanks man!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Ok, fair enough. And yes, running an earlier RUU such as that should downgrade your touchscreen firmware.

Transmitted via Bacon
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mdaines:
Yeah, I definitely could have gone about this better :( I mean I was prepared to brick it to learn (it's an old phone), but still.

So I entered the new CID you gave me and this is what I got in return:

<bootloader> elite_init_sd, SD card already power on

<bootloader> sdhw_7xxx_open: id=0

<bootloader> [SD_HW_ERR] SD: no device attached

<bootloader> 902910 902E20

FAILED (status read failed(too many links))

finished. total time: 1.275s

I don't know if this makes a difference or not, but I'm still able to boot it up normally, run apps, etc. Connecting it to my provider isn't important, as I plan on using it as more of a tablet than a phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
And you definitely can't unlock the bootloader?

Thanks for help people:o

P.S sorry for my bad english
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
The first thing you need to do is go to my guide thread and follow the instructions in section 1b to get s-off and SuperCID. Then go to htcdev and unlock your bootloader. Now you need to make a choice, do you want to use an older RUU to go backwards, or do you want to try one of the great custom ROMs that we have here?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Suja7:
I have a problem with that. When i bought this it was running on 4.04 and will i be ablr to go back with 4.1.1?

What's the problem? If you do what I said you can install anything you want to as long as it's for this phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Suja7:
Oh, its doesnt mean if it wasnt running 4.1.1? Its so cool:victory: bw i want ruu but then i will try your roms. After i will do everything you said hoe can i choose which one to install rom or ruu

You can find the 3.18 AT&T RUU here:

The fact that you need to apply physical pressure to the display in order for the backlight to come on tells us that you're dealing with a hardware failure, it's mostly likely a loose connection.

Internal storage issues, CM

Hi there,

-Telstra One XL

***TAMPERED ***

***UNLOCKED***

EVITA PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-2.15.0000

RADIO-`.38a.32.45.24

OpenDSP-v33.1.0.45.1128

eMMC-boot

ROM: cm-12-20150224-NIGHTLY-evita

Recovery: twrp-2.8.1.1-evita.img

I'm new to the forum and new to rooting my phone and installing mods.

I have, however with the help of your great faqs on the forums managed to root my phone, flash the latest Cyanogen mod onto my phone using twrp.

I have backed up the original telstra rom via twrp, copied it to my computer and deleted it off my phone, and i have backed up my new rom (also via twrp) to my computer AND my phone.

My problem:

In the process of installing my apps (despite not having as many apps as my regular Telstra One XL rom), my phone told me that I don't have enough room in my internal memory to install any more apps. Looking at the Internal memory, all up it says i have something like 2gb, and only 200mb available. Compared pre-rooting/CM, Telstra normally had about 8gb of internal space (which I'd almost filled up).

Thus far to attempt to solve this issue I have:

-used the function in CM to move whatever apps I could to the 'sd card'.

-cleared out caches

-del .trashes (via my computer's explorer) on phone

Is there a solution for this (especially one that is appropriate for a n00b like me to try without bricking my phone) OR am I better off installing a different mod?

[I did use the search function to see if there was anything on the forums that might answer my question, but didn't have any luck]
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Are you sure you haven't just used up your available space? If not, I'd copy anything you want to keep to your PC and then format your internal storage (fat32), and then copy your stuff back again.

Transmitted via Bacon
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Arradius:
Hi timmaaa, as far as using up available space I don't think so. I've attached screenshots so you can see what I mean. I've certainly got some space, but 2.34gb compard to the 8gb when I was not on a rooted phone? I'm wondering if this 2.34gb is standard for CM. Can anyone using One XL + CM12 verify?

Yes, i have 410mb of available space, but I haven't installed space heavy things like Ingress, Garmin Vivofit and others, but I'd like to make sure I have more space before I install everything else. I previously did install quite a few apps on CM, however at some point I got told there was insufficient memory, so I uninstalled a lot of stuff so that I would have memory.

In as far as formatting goes, I'm not familiar with how to do that. I'm assuming I use twrp to backup, copy backup to my PC, then use twrp to format/wipe phone? If I do that, does this then mean that TWRP is wiped off my phone, so I'd have to work out some way to get it onto my phone, possibly adb? If that is the case, when I format my phone, will I still be able to get into fastboot?

Thanks for your patience and assistance.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
As far as I'm aware CM12 doesn't (shouldn't) affect your internal storage size at all. It hasn't had that effect on my Evita. I'm talking about only formatting the internal storage, which won't touch your system or apps so there should be no need to make a TWRP backup. All you should have to do is copy your important media/files from the phone to your PC, and then use Windows to format it. You can do this in Windows Explorer, just right-click on your phone in the left side-bar and select format, and then just make sure you format it to the fat32 format. Once that's done you can copy your media/files back across.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Arradius:
Hi Again timmaaa,

Unfortunately I don't have that option in Windows explorer - THe only options I see when clicking on my phone is Expand, Open in New Window, Import Pictures and Videos, Rename and Properties.

Is there some setting I've missed? Not sure if relevant, but USB Computer connection setting on device is set to MTP. Tried it on UMS and computer didn't recognise it.

Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
MTP is the correct setting to be using. You might have to use TWRP to try to repair the partition instead of Windows Explorer.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Arradius:
Thankyou, I will attempt this later tonight and report back.

I have search the forums and google to see if there were any guides or how tos for twrp to repair the partition. If you have any that you know of, or any other sage advice to help me out with this process I'm all ears, as I can't see immeadiately in the TWRP interface any option whereby I might be able to repair the partition (format?)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Simply wiping the partition should format it, but I believe there's actually a "repair partition" function somewhere in the TWRP menus.

Transmitted via Bacon
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Arradius:
Okay, this is all i can see that appears to be relevant: Wipe: Factory reset

OR go into Advanced Wipe: Dalvik Cache, Cache, Data, System, Internal Storage, Android Secure, USB OTG.

I selected Internal Storage, and then Wiped.

Powered off and rebooted into CM.

My storage specs (without installing my backup) are now:

Internal storage: Total Space: 2.34GB, Available: 410MB

Internal Storage: Total Space: 24.49GB, Available 24.49 GB

So pretty much the same, obviously I haven't added the stuff back on for the larger partition, I will at some point, but I'm still left with the same issue. The Smaller partition is where apps get installed to, and a few large apps away I'll be back to having the not enough room to install notification.

Are there any other suggestions you have? I'd really like to get that first partition back to 8gb, rather than 2.34 GB
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Apologies, I was misunderstanding you. When you said internal storage I was assuming you were talking about the user accessible section, not the system section. You never had access to 8gb there, a massive chunk of that (something like 6gb) is taken up by the OS and other system files, plus like any computing device the advertised 32gb isn't actually 32gb of real space (for example, my 64gb OnePlus One actually only has 55gb of usable space).

The amount of space that's set aside for apps there looks spot on to me, it's the same whether it's the 16gb or the 32gb version of the phone.

Transmitted via Bacon
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Arradius:
Ah okay. I'm curious then, even though I'm installing exactly the same amount of apps on my phone as pre mod, why am I getting told that I no longer have room to install them? Is it because CM's system files and OS are taking up more than what the Telstra OS/System files did?

Ultimately I'm after a way to increase the amount of space I have available to me, so that I can install all the apps that I had before. Is this do-able?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
I'd be surprised if CM was taking up more space, it's usually 200mb at the most, where Sense is nearly four times that. When viewing the app info via Settings/Apps do you have an option to move the app to the sd card?

Transmitted via Bacon
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Arradius:
With a handful of apps. Other apps such as FB, various google apps, AVG, Classcover, spotify and zombies, run! 3 I do not have that option.

I've moved everything that I could via "Move to SD Card" .

ADDED:

Interestingly, I've now found that a handful of apps that I Installed yesterday, have now completely disappeared off my phone and had to reinstall. Who knows how little space I'll have after that.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Do you use Titanium Backup? You might find that it can move apps that otherwise couldn't be moved. And it's definitely not the OS taking up more space that's causing the issue, because no matter what OS you have installed there's a certain allocation/allowance of space for the app partition that doesn't change. So I'm 99% sure of what isn't causing the problem, bit unfortunately I have no idea what is causing the problem.
