new to evita...

Guys I just got this phone....

Its at&t unlocked hboot 1.09 s on

Super cid ....twrp 2.4.1

I got this with viper xl sense 5 rom..installed...

Now I have done some reading n I'm amazed to c such osm support.....My question is that I want to install kitkat roms...

I think I need to get s off then flash 3.18 ruu .... Now my confusion is that this ruu will give me hboot 2.14 so if I need to install sense based based rom will it work on this or agn iagn ilrequire hboot 2.15 flashing?

I mean is it possible to run both ...and what is firmware 2.18 recently posted...what's benefit of that on these ..... Secondly how different is 3.18 ruu setup comparison to FUU update utility... That's lot smaller: size...?

Lastly....since I have recovery installed will the method given in beginner guide to flash new recovery update my present recovery..

Plz help me guys...dont mind if missed something...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You can use the FUU tool to upgrade to 2.14 and then 2.15 firmware. The benefit is that it'll stop random reboots and signal losses from occurring on Sense 5 ROMs. You do still need s-off first. You'll need to flash TWRP recovery again afterwards, even if it doesn't touch your recovery, because the current version you have installed (2.4.1) is full of bugs. You'll need to flash to 2.6 or higher.

PS. Please use proper English when posting on our forum. Text language isn't a real language and using it shows disrespect to other forum members.

Ok I will try to post in proper english...thx for replying but please tell what is the use of firmware 2.18... And I'm still confused on how to flash recovery...please tell how to remove this current recovery and flash new one
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
There's not really any need to flash the 2.18 firmware, just the 2.14 and then the 2.15 is enough. You don't need to remove the current recovery before installing the new one, you just install the new one over the top and it overwrites the current one. I have detailed instructions in my How-To Guide For Beginners thread in my signature.

BTW: Can we use sense theme and Blinkfeed in Cm based Roms?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
No you can't. Sense apps can only be used on Sense ROMs, this is because they're tied heavily into the Sense framework. If you try to install a Sense app on an aosp ROM it will not work.

So now i have both 3.18 and 5.18 ruu's downloaded to my pc running windows 8.1. I have 2.15 hboot running atm, would it be fine if i run 3.18 ruu over it containing hboot 2.14 ?

It seems to be a downgrade in terms of hboot, or should i run 5.18 itself ? Any advantage of the later in particular as all i want is a working kitkat rom alongside sense rom.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
I don't think you're understanding me. It doesn't matter which one you use, as I've already stated twice previously, all we're trying to do by running the RUU is find out if we can fix your problem. You're not going to flash a ROM straight away afterwards, you're going to stay stock to see if the problem persists. I'm not sure how else I can word it.

I have some confusion regarding which one to install as if i choose 3.18 it contains hboot 2.14 which will override the phone's current hboot 2.15, is it okay to do that ?

Also the stock rom will be sense based which is not giving any problem and to test if the problem related to process.android.phone is occurring again i have to install kitkat rom first over it :(

How can i check that problem in the stock rom :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
It's perfectly fine to overwrite your current hboot (2.15) with the hboot contained in the RUU (2.14). When you have s-off you can run any Evita RUU, regardless of whether it's a forwards or backwards step.

Yes, the stock ROM will be Sense. But, can you just humour me and run it? When someone is having a problem like yours the standard procedure is to run an RUU to see if the problem will continue on a stock Sense ROM. You only need to run the stock ROM for a day (or dvd a few hours) to see if the problem will continue or not, then you can flash any ROM you want.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Restoring a backup won't do the job, you need the RUU because it brings everything back into line as if you had just bought the device, a backup only restores ROM components. You can try restoring the backup but I don't really see the point. You're gonna need to sort out adb/fastboot at some point anyway, it might as well be now.

That link is invalid. What are you trying to do? After you get S-OFF and then SuperCID you can update the firmware manually or run an RUU to update the firmware if you want to run Sense 5 roms. I find my radio is stable with the 2.14 radios on AOSP however, as opposed to 2.15+.

Without s-off you can't run an RUU that's a backwards step so you need to get s-off. Unlock your bootloader at htcdev, flash TWRP recovery, flash a ROM like Kickdroid, get s-off, then you can run any Evita RUU you want to. Or you can just flash a custom ROM.

Many of your complaints about Sense 5 ("horrible, terrible, crappy") are aesthetic, and a matter of personal taste. If you prefer Sense 4/4+, just state it that way (along with the facts, such as choppy video), and leave it at that. Your complaining about Sense 5 just sounds like whining and ranting, and probably not going to win you any friends; as most of us (that prefer Sense) have moved onto Sense 5.

I'm happy to see you've brought your question to the forums, instead of using PM. As I see you have also been PMing timmaaa, and caused us to duplicate efforts. One of the many reasons why questions are better asked here in the forums instead of PM.

As timmaaa has stated above, and I replied in PM, just unlock your bootloader and achieve s-off. From there you can run the RUU for whatever OS version you desire. Or just install a custom ROM with the features you want.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Did you bother to read either of the threads I directed you to before asking that question? This thread was created to help people, however, it should not be used in lieu of doing due diligence and researching properly, especially when I've directed you to a specific thread that answers your question.

I've already said it once but I'll say it again. Go to htcdev and unlock your bootloader, flash a custom recovery like TWRP, get root or flash a rooted ROM, get s-off (it doesn't matter what your firmware is to get s-off). At this stage you can run any RUU or you can flash a custom ROM. Pretty much all the information you need is in either the Evita FAQ or the How-To Guide For Beginners threads in my signature. You should also bookmark the Compilation Roll-up thread by redpoint, it contains links to everything you'll ever need.

Please take the time to do some research before going any further, a few hours at the very least. And please search thoroughly before asking questions, it's the first rule of XDA. And like I said before, I'm here to help people but I'm not in the business of promoting laziness by answering questions because someone didn't bother researching properly.

Now Should I S Off First Then Install Rom Based On Stock 4.1.1 Jb Or Should I just unlock bootloader install twrp root it & install rom based on stock jb 4.1.1?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
I would recommend getting s-off. While not strictly necessary in order to flash ROMs, it has the following advantages:

1) With s-on, you have to extract and manually flash boot.img using fastboot,

every time

you flash a ROM. This is not necessary when you have s-off.

2) As already discussed you can't "downgrade" by RUU (run an older RUU than your hboot version) with s-on. And I don't believe an RUU for your current firmware and hboot exists. Therefore, if you run into problems while s-on and need to RUU, you are stuck, since there is

no

RUU that you can run. S-off means you can recover by running a previous RUU.

3) S-off allows you to flash radios, modify hboot, and other mods not possible with s-on.

You've already mentioned this problem in the firmware thread, and I'm pretty sure I've seen another user already tell you why not to duplicate your posts. Not only is mentioning the same problem in multiple places against the rules, but it also causes people to duplicate their efforts which is a waste of our time. I'll continue to help you in this thread.

Is the zip you're trying to flash actually named "firmware.zip" or is it named differently? From what I can see, the zip is actually named "Att_5.18_firmware.zip", in which case you're entering your command incorrectly. You must use the actual filename of the file you're flashing in the command, so it should look like this:

fastboot flash zip att_5.18_firmware.zip

Installing RUU

How Can I Install This RUU?? I Mean Should I Install It From Custom TRWP Recovery Or What??

I am S OFF Unlocked Bootloader SENSE 5 4.2.2 Stock Rooted
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
That isn't an RUU, that's an OTA. An RUU is always an exe program that you run through Windows. That is a zip, plus it even shows you that it's an OTA in the beginning of the filename.

An OTA is only a partial system, you flash it on top of the correct preceding software and it builds on top of it to create an updated system. Flashing an OTA by itself or on top of an incorrect preceding system will result in the phone not booting, or even possibly a brick.

Like I said before, an RUU is an exe file so that's what you need to find. All you need to do is connect your phone to your PC and run the program. Just make sure HTC Sync Manager is uninstalled, make sure no other programs are running, and make sure screen saver/hibernation is turned off.
