It's normal to have to flash gapps separately when installing an aosp ROM. The gapps cannot be included in the ROM zip for licensing reasons.

What are your bootloader details now please?

Sent from my Evita
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
That is your hboot number. Your firmware version is usually known by the hboot number or the software number. So right now you have the 2.14/3.18 firmware.

Sent from my Evita.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
The 1.73 software is usually tied to the 1.09 hboot but they can change independently of each other. It isn't unusual on a modified phone to have a hboot of 1.09 with a software version of 3.18, or even a hboot of 2.14 with a software version of 1.73. The latter is more unlikely but is possible, any combination is possible really. The reason you have the mismatch is because the RUU only partially succeeded.

okay, so this is getting really frustrating which is why I resorted to craigslist. Now adb isn't recognizing my device at all in fastboot. When I'm in Android it shows up, but not in fastboot. I've mad sure USB debugging is on, correct drivers are installed, I've switched USB ports, disconnected/connected the cable, rebooted phone and comp....what else is there. Makes no sense that it would work in Android but not in fastboot...why?!?!

And yes, copy the ROM to your phone, along with the appropriate gapps package, and flash in TWRP via the install menu. You should do a full wipe in TWRP before flashing (cache/dalvik cache/system/factory reset).

Hi,

Back in 2012 I unlocked my Telstra One XL, using advice from xda forums, to install ViperXL 2.4.1; then I just left it as it was because I liked the ROM. It worked pretty much flawlessly until about 3 weeks ago when I suddenly couldn't access any of the files on my device through any apps other than File Explorer. I figured it must have been because I hadn't updated my OS for so long so I installed ViperXL 4.2.0. Since then I the phone resets itself several times a day, I've had very poor reception or no reception where I normally would have perfect reception, I get the notification 'sim card inserted' once or twice a day and have to reselect Telstra as my operator, and the battery life has reduced by approx 25% with the same usage. I have searched through the ViperXL ROM forum and google but can't find a solution as to why the phone is acting like this. I have also tried installing several other ROMs but for some reason they fail each time.

Sorry, I probably should have put this in the ViperXL ROM thread but I can't post there because I'm a new member. Any advice would be much appreciated.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
The problem is that your firmware is too outdated to run that version of Viper (or any Sense 5 ROM for that matter). This problem and its solution has been discussed dozens of times in the Viper thread and in our Q&A Section, so much in fact that I had to add it to the Evita FAQ thread. Anyway, you couldn't find it, no harm done. All you need to do is go to the How-To Guide For Beginners thread in my signature and follow the tutorial for flashing the 2.15 firmware, and your random reboots and signal losses will cease.

As for the battery life, it took a bit of a hit after the JB update (I think), and there isn't really a great deal you can do about it.

PS. Check out all of the threads in my signature, you'll find that they contain some really valuable information.

Thanks heaps for your help, I must not have known what I was looking for. Your FAQ helped a lot and I updated the firmware to 2.15.

I have another question that has probably already been asked/answered somewhere but again I can't find it.. I've read that the KitKat ROMs require 3.18 RUU or later but I can't figure out how to find out which RUU I have, is there another name for it?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] marknoll:

To find out your ruu, you can go to about phone and look at the baseband version
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
All current aosp ROMs require you to have firmware from at least 3.18 or above. You have installed the 2.15 firmware which is above 3.18 so you don't need to do anything else (apart from making sure you have the right recovery installed, TWRP 2.7.1.0 is what you want).

You actually don't have the HTC One XL (Evita), you have the HTC One X (Endeavoru). The reason the ROM won't boot is because it obviously isn't for your device. You're actually pretty lucky it didn't brick your phone when you flashed it.

You need to head over to the HTC One X Endeavoru device forum here:

http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-x

Bookmark that page and make sure you don't stray out of that section again, flashing the wrong ROM could brick your phone next time.

Screen flicker issue

Back again, I again thank you for the help with the prior signal issues.

Now this is a new phone haha, running the latest PA on hboot 3.18

At times the screen just begins to flicker constantly.

It may or may not resolve upon restart, but it happens often.

No one had any answers. I hope we can resolve this without returning this phone as well.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
There is no 3.18 hboot, there is a 3.18 software version from at&t though, is that what you mean? Or do you mean the firmware that came with the 3.18 update (that includes the 2.14 hboot)?

Does the screen flicker while the phone is in the bootloader or in recovery? Have you tried flashing different ROMs to see if it continues?

flashing custom kernel

Okay. I'm finally gonna ask after much researching. I'm trying to figure out how to flash a custom kernel via fastboot for my Evita which is s-on. I know it must be done via fastboot since I'm s-on. This is my problem tho. I don't know what file(s) to flash, because there is no file named (boot.img) in the torched kernel 4.3 that I downloaded. There are 3 main files when I open it. They are (system) (meta-inf) and (kernel). When I double click (kernel) this is what I see. (Compatibility.sh) (edit_ramdisk.sh) (mkbootimg) (mkbootimg.sh) (modclean.sh) (unpackbootimg) and (zImage). Now, I know how to flash a custom ROMs boot.img via fast boot, and have done this multiple times. In the ROMs tho, there is always a boot.img file. So, here are my questions. 1.) Which file(s) do I flash via fastboot to get the kernel working prooperly? 2.) Can I use the same fastboot files, adb files to push the kernels boot image as I do for my ROMs boot.img? My method for doing so is without the SDK.. 3.) What command do I give when sending the kernels boot.img via fastboot through the command window? After that, I know to flash the kernel via TWRP.. I know its a loaded, long question, but any help with this matter is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance and I'll hit thanks when I get the answer as well. :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Not all kernels actually contain the boot.img file, which means if you're s-on you can't flash that kernel. The solution? Just get s-off. There's really no excuse not to have it these days anyway.

It's possible that the RUU became corrupted during the download, in which case no amount of tying will produce a positive result. That's just a maybe though. I'm currently running Candy Kat with the Torched kernel and I don't have any problems with getting the screen to come on at all.

It's generally accepted that the most recent version of any ROM/kernel has had the most development, and therefore is the best version to use. So just flash the latest standard version, if that doesn't boot (which it should for most Evitas) you'll need to grab the latest nooc-novc version.
