I wasn't really asking which was better, I just wanted to narrow down all of the kernel options out there that will work with my device's new set-up. I don't want to flash something incompatible and screw up all of the progress I've made in the last few days. No disrespect meant to the devs at all, just looking for a starting point for selecting one, and maybe a few tidbits of wisdom.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
As long as you look in the right section you can't really go wrong. Android Development for Sense, and Original Android Development for aosp. There are two kernels that are compatible with Beanstalk; Torched and Boosted.

Cool!

Thanks for the info.

I always wondered what the difference between the "Android Development" and "Original Android Development" was on these forums. I can start my research there. Thanks again.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] brekfest:
Well, now. That was a painfully obvious solution. Thanks. :D

Too late in the day to try for S-OFF on the computer at work, so will see if fastboot works on my home computer after all and maybe try rumrunner again there.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Lol. Here's how it works:

Fastboot: only works while the phone is in fastboot mode.

Adb: works in all other situations (except fastboot mode). For example, while booted into Android, while booted into recovery, while phone is booting up.

aww shucks :P

I have another question too hehe

I flashed codefireX, which was really snappy, but I want to try some others.

CM11 nightlies ask for the 3.18 RUU (2.14 hboot), and I'm on 2.15 Hboot. Do I need to go back or is it 2.14 as a 'minimum'?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You're good to go. What they're referring to is actually the firmware, and the firmware that contains the 2.14 hboot is the minimum.

For clarification's sake, re Facepalm S-off:

We place the unzipped soffbin FOLDER into our sdk-tools folder, not the soffbin FILE, correct?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
The soffbin file is an archive, you need to unzip it and put the contents into the same folder as fastboot.exe, wherever that is on your PC.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] psufan32:
Thank you for the reply. All goes well in the process (92 error, etc.) up until I enter these commands:

adb push soffbin3 /data/local/tmp/

adb shell chmod 744 /data/local/tmp/soffbin3

adb shell su -c "/data/local/tmp/soffbin3"

The first seems to work, it gives me the time it took.

The second gives no information, just tosses me back to the command line.

The third gives a "Permission denied" error.

Then, of course, when I reboot into the bootloader, I am still S-on.

Btw, I am SuperCID and running CyanegonMod 10.2.

Any thoughts? Thanks again.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You must have your screen on and your screen timeout set to maximum so that the phone didn't sleep during the process. You may have to grant superuser access on the last command. If you can't get it to work you might need to flash a Sense ROM and try again.

Thanks for the help everyone (especially Timmaaa -- not just here but all over the One X forums :good:)... Got S-OFF, upgraded TWRP to 2.6.0.0, updated to the 2.15 firmware, and finally installed Viper XL 4.2! While doing these things seems intimidating to someone like myself, the process was fairly simple once I got down to it. Enjoy having a phone that feels kind of new again.

One question... since I'm now S-OFF I'm thinking about actually switching up ROMs here and there, so do I always need to wipe the "data" partition with each new ROM? Or can I leave it intact if I'm going from one Sense 5 based ROM to another?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] qwertyaas:
Been running Sense based roms for quite a while but looking to go back to AOSP but not sure on the process now that we're on 4.4. I am of course rooted, S-CID but S-ON. HBOOT 1.09, TWRP 2.2.0.

I know most roms still have basic flash instructions (recovery, flash, reboot). Since I'm running the above 'specs', should I be doing anything else - upgrade recovery, S-OFF, HBOOT...?

Also, does running S-OFF fully wipe your SD or just the System partition?

Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Whenever you change ROMs you should perform a full wipe which is system, data (factory reset), cache, dalvik cache.

Sent from my Evita
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You need to get s-off first, it will not wipe anything. You can try either Facepalm S-off or Rumrunner S-off. Once you have s-off you can run the 3.18 RUU. The RUU shouldn't wipe anything but make backups of anything important just in case. Once you've done that all you need to do is flash a KitKat compatible recovery and you'll be good to go.

I had the exact same issue when converting over to s-off. I worked with Timmaaa, and he told me about loading a Sense rom and that was the key for me. I used the Cleanrom 7.0r1 and then I was able to achieve s-off with the facepalm method.

and i don´t remember much of it .. i had a chaos rom (dont really remember which one is) .. but i had root s-off and supercid..

i installed another rom (cleanrom 7.2) and everything is smooth and stock-like but im having some problems like the phone signal going off sometimes (and never coming back, till i restart the phone) and phone restarting which is something i hate and i searched and found that my hboot or fimware is not update i have 1.14 hboot and know i dont have supercid nor s-off so i cant update my firmware withouth fu**ing up my phone(that´s what i think) is it safe to update the firmware.. please help i like this phone a lot and it sucks that this is happening
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
If your phone is an at&t model I can pretty much guarantee you have SuperCID because it's impossible to unlock the bootloader on the at&t model without it. Double check by issuing this fastboot command:

fastboot oem readcid

Once you've confirmed that you have SuperCID just head over to the Facepalm S-off thread and get s-off. Then you can update your firmware.

Flashed endeavour recovery img on evita

Hey Everyone,

This is my first post. I have the Rogers HTC One X and unlocked the bootloader and rooted the phone already. I was trying to fix the battery issue by moving a misplaced file (from mike1986's post that I read on the forums). Anyway, in that process i also "flashed" twrp on to the phone. I tried to put the phone back to stock and what i thought was the endeavour model but from what I understand it is not. So I flashed the endeavour recovery image on to my evita phone. It runs fine. There is the "Tampered" banner at the top of the HBoot (right term?) screen. Should I just leave it or can i flash an evita recovery image that may get rid of the "Tampered" banner?

Many thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
The tampered banner is normal on a modified phone. But flashing an Endeavoru recovery is definitely a problem. You need to flash an Evita recovery to it, you'll find the TWRP Evita page here:

http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/evita

You need to make sure you only flash stuff that's intended for our device, flashing Endeavoru ROMs, recoveries etc can result in a bricked phone. The best way to ensure you only flash the right stuff is to stay within our device forum. Our forum main page is here:

Thanks so much for the quick reply. Yeah, I originally thought I was running the HOX and then upon reading more in the forums I realized it's the HOXL. So I was in a bit of a panic. If I flash the TWRP recovery (I've been on the page, do I just download the lastest version? 2.7.0.0?) does this change anything function wise on the phone?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
yes you can install the latest TWRP from here: http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/evita

Change anything functionwise? I don't understand.. as opposed to?

I mean if I'm not flashing any ROMs or kernas (or whatever else can be done?), what would having the endeavour recovery image do to the phone? I've flashed the most updated twrp file in the meantime.

Well.. it wouldn't flash properly..or worse case scenario, it would brick your phone and render it unusable....

Exact steps required to get to latest HBOOT and JB ROMs

I've been reading around and have an idea that I'll need to flash new RUU to get to latest HBOOT and then unlock, root and custom ROM.

Still want to confirm and get exact steps to do this

Details for my One X:

S-OFF

CID-111111111 (super CID)

HBOOT: 1.14.0002

Radio: 0.19as.32.09.11_2 (Using it with USA T-Mobile)

eMMC-boot

TWRP Recovery 2.7.0.0 (Was using MIUI but wiped to install PAC-MAN so right now don't have any ROM)

I didn't include OpenDSP version assuming its not important

I was trying to flash PAC-MAN rom but it fails with bootloader not equal to 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 etc.

I would like to know exact steps to install PAC-MAN ROM (it looks like: 1. Flash RUU (I don't know where to download from) 2. ROOT 3. Unlock 4. S-OFF 5. Flash Recovery 6. Flash ROM)

Please if possible provide with links.

Something along these lines I followed first time I installed Avatar ROM, its been while since I changed anything on this phone and would like to get opinion/advice before trying to follow something blindly

Thanks

Download the 2.14 RUU for your carrier,, Check the resource compilation thread. everything you could ever be looking for is there: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1671237

Run the RUU.

Ruu will not undo S-OFF or relock your bootloader so you don't need to worry about that.

No need to root since you will be flashing a rom anyway...

Flash unofficial recovery in original android recovery section

Flash rom,

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] psufan32:
So, two questions.

I was able to successfully flash CM11 after getting on a Windows 7 machine (bootloader) to get S-off.

My first time through, I missed a step somewhere and got a boot loop. I was able to get into recovery and flash my backup, and then work through again.

However, after the boot loop (and prior to installing CM11), the phone won't turn on normally. In order to get the phone to turn on, I have to hold down the power button while the buttons at the bottom of the phone flash a dozen times or so and then stop. At that point, I release the power button, wait a few seconds, and the phone starts with a press of the power button.

1) Any ideas to the above? What I did and how I might go ahead solving the issue? If I reboot the device, it reboots right fine, no issues.

2) The second thing is that since flashing CM11, I get "device offline" when trying adb. Nothing new on the computer's end, and debugging is enabled.

Thanks in advance.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Ok. I'd you want to start from scratch just run an RUU. I need to see your bootloader details first though to make sure it's safe.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
The bug where you need to hold down the power button to turn the phone on seems to be present on KitKat ROMs. So far a cause hasn't been established, so neither has a fix.

Your adb issue is more than likely related to drivers. Try installing your drivers and reinstalling them again.

hey timmaaa - i'm liking my first HOXL so much that i just bought another used one for my sister.

unlike that first used HOXL i bought which you helped me with, this second HOXL came completely stock with a locked bootloader. so i went to your Beginner's guide thread and am trying to follow along to unlock it. i went to the Root 3.18 development thread you linked and downloaded the xpwn.tar.gz file which i then placed into my ADB folder.

here's the problem - i'm booted into Android with USB debugging enabled and am connected to my PC. my PC recognizes the HOXL, so no issues there. however, i'm getting an error on the 1st command push. it seems like it's trying to find that first oneXchopper file but can't. i'm guessing i need it but can't find where to get it. the development thread says "Copy oneXchopper, ownage, and busybox files to folder with ADB" but the only download file supplied in that thread is the xpwn.tar.gz file. and that file isn't a zip so there aren't any other files within it to extract/unzip, so i'm confused as to what i'm currently missing.

i checked the CID on this new phone in ADB and it's "CWS__001" so i know i need to get temp root in order to get SuperCID so i can then unlock the BL.

the tar.gz file is for the linux method. You need to extract that file using 7zip.. it's compressed twice.. a tar within a gz so extract the tar.gz then extract the tar file.. then you will have the files you require. Should still work in windows if I recall correctly.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] droydr:
thanks for the reply. don't think i'd seen a twice compressed file before so i was confused, thanks for clarifying. i'm on Windows XP and extracted those files into my ADB folder.

i then ran all the different commands and now my hboot says "Tampered and Locked" (before it just said Locked). however, when i read the CID in fastboot it still says "CWS__001". i was hoping/expecting it to say "11111111". do you know if the now "Tampered" text in hboot means that i've at least temporarily gained SuperCID despite it saying CWS_001? or should i try running all those commands again until it hopefully says 11111111?

ADB screenshot, looks like there was an invalid argument and a file location error? all the extracted files are in my ADB folder however..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
The only thing I can think of that would help in this situation is to run the 3.18 RUU and start again with a blank slate. Be doubly sure you still have the stock CID first though, running the RUU with SuperCID and s-on will brick your phone.
