Help :)

I'm trying to return my old HTC One XL (Telstra) back to stock. It's current state is:

S-Off

CID = 11111111

TWRP

hboot: 2.15

I've found the latest full RUU from this thread (all the links to newer RUU are broken):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2119610&page=5

3.17.841.2

File Timestamp: 04/12/12

Publically Seen: 24/12/12

Android: 4.1.1

Kernel: 3.4.10-g240d4d5

hboot: 2.14.0000

radio: 0.23a.32.09.29_10.128.32.34a

First, can I us this RUU even though I have a newer hboot (2.15) installed?

Second, do I need to change my CID back? (using fastboot oem writecid TELST001). Will changing the CID loose my S-Off?

Third, is this the process:

1) Flash the stock recovery:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (taken out of the RUU)

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot erase cache

2) Flash the stock boot.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img (taken out of the RUU)

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot erase cache

3) Re-lock the boot loader

fastboot oem lock

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot erase cache

4) Load RUU

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip ruu.zip

fastboot reboot

After all this, I assume I'll loose TWRP etc. but will have a stock phone, and the ability to load OTA updates from the carrier.

THANKS :D
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
That 3.17.841.2 file isn't an RUU, it's an OTA. It's a zip file, an RUU is always an exe program. There's only one Telstra RUU available and it's a much earlier version. You can't flash that file using fastboot, an OTA can only be applied via stock recovery, and it requires the correct previous OS to be already installed on the device. If you want to return the device to stock you just run the latest actual RUU (1.89 from memory), and follow this process:

1) Run RUU exe via Windows.

2) Revert to Telstra CID.

fastboot oem writecid TELST001

3) Lock bootloader.

fastboot oem lock

4) Go back to s-on.

fastboot oem writesecureflag 3

5) Take OTA updates via Settings/About Phone/Software Updates until you reach the point you wavy to be at.

Won't running the exe RUU before changing the CID fail?

And I thought you could still get the RUU as a ZIP (although most are just smaller OTA updates). The ZIP is 700Mb.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
No, you have s-off. Having s-off bypasses all security checks.

No, an RUU is always an exe file. Just like an OTA is always a zip file.

Sweet, cheers timmaaa :).

Now, I just need to find the RUU, all the links are either broken, or to the HTC website which has gone.

Any suggestions?

And would I need to downgrade HBOOT before RUU?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You'll find the RUU here:

You don't need to do anything before running the RUU, just connect in fastboot mode and get it cracking.

I am knew at this but I want to root my galaxy note 3. I updated my phone so I can't safely root with out tripping the Knox. Now I bought my phone with Verizon and got a warranty with protectcell (I got the most comprehensive one they had). I emailed them if they would replace a phone that had a tripped Knox sensor and I have not received any emails back. Now I turn to you, people of the inter Web, to see if anyone knows if they will? I also thought of this, their warranty covers things like dropping my phone in the pool. Will they reject it with water damage plus a tripped Knox?

-any help would be great.
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
Hi all! I just found and tested a kernel in LGVIET forum, courtesy of rui962190105.

It is made to work with the latest CM11 nightlies. It is working perfectly with the latest nightly I flashed.

It is also working with the latest VANIR and I guess also COMMOTIO.

Tested working with this ROMs:

1. VANIR (4.4.3 - 4.4.4)

2. COMMOTIO 4.4.4

3. BeanStalk 4.4.4

4. AICP 4.4.4

5. CM11 latest nightlies

6. PAC 4.4.4

7. Bliss Stalk 4.4.4

8. CARBON 4.4.4

I managed to test AICP, VANIR, CM11, BeanStalk and COMMOTIO with this, and no problems still.

Here is the link:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-khXRwmmbnnSm0tUkVrdzE0dlk/view?usp=sharing

That is the kernel itself. Feel free to test it. I am on VANIR now and all is perfectly functioning.

How to:

1. Flash your CM11 ROM

2. Flash GAPPS

3. Flash this kernel

4. Kaching!

Of course do the wipes needed, and please use latest recovery.

IMPORTANT!

1.) If coming from stock F240x, I suggest flash first the ROM first:

ROM: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567716050

2.) Then install FREEGEE, install CWM 6.0.4.7 recovery, place the CM11 ROM, GAPPS, this KERNEL to your device storage.

2.1.) I advise to flash Philz Touch recovery after CWM from FreeGee. It is much better.

3.) Reboot to recovery, make a backup first to be sure, do the wipes, flash as instructed above, do another dalvik wipe, boot to system.

4.) If all is well, then you are good. If not report back here.

BUGS (I guess):

- NFC (I dunno if it's the KERNEL or the ROM)

- Battery drains like 1% per 2 hours as for me, in Standby Mode.

Is this up 2date...I'll see and post screen shots

===am using the e980 on tmo and this dosent wrk for us(e980) it just sits at lg screen
[LG Optimus G Pro] scufutz:
I see 240 there ... Where can i find a cm11 for 240 series ... ?
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
This is a kernel for F240 K/S/L variants that wants to flash the CM11 nightlies for E98x.

There are no builds specifically for the F240, but with this kernel, you can use the CM11 nightly builds for E98x, for the F240x variant.
[LG Optimus G Pro] chizhk:
Any idea if this will work with CWM 6.0.4.4 (and not 6.0.4.7 that was specified)?
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
Have not tried it, but most people suggest using 6.0.4.5 above, but not 6.0.4.8 yet.
[LG Optimus G Pro] chizhk:
Can someone publish a link for downloading cwm of such a version (6.0.4.5 or above) for F240L? Tried to find, but no success.
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
If you want to really test this, just follow my instructions above. It will GET you there.
[LG Optimus G Pro] chizhk:
That's the point. You are talking about FREEGEE installation and I don't want to deal with FREEGEE, that's why I was looking for a way to install CWM 6.0.4.5 or above directly.

Anyway, I will give it a try with CWM 6.0.4.4 that my phone has.
[LG Optimus G Pro] scufutz:
Hi

Let us know how its goes...

Ext sdcard ... Qremote ...

Thx
[LG Optimus G Pro] chizhk:
Well, here is the short review:

1. Tried to install using CWM 6.0.4.4 that I had. No success. The installation failed on checking phone's model for CM11 zip that I downloaded from the official site. Theoretically, it can be easily overcome by repacking the installation zip and small fix in the script, but I am not sure it wouldn't fail on something else after that. So, whoever wants to install it with lower CWM version, it will likely not work.

2. I installed FREEGEE and activated CWM 6.0.4.7 installation from FREEGEE menu. Rebooted into the recovery after and CWM 6.0.4.7 was there. A tip for doing the same - the backups I had (and which were done via old CWM 6.0.4.4) became invisible for the new CWM version. So, you must rebackup your ROM before you continue, otherwise you can find yourself without an option to revert. BTW, 6.0.4.4 version had also touch controls, and the new doesn't :(

3. After taking the backup, I continued according to the instructions and all went good. Got well known CM that I had on my old Galaxy II a while ago.

4. So far, things work - all basic operations that I used were OK, SD card is visible, no issues at the moment though I am using it for a half day, so can't report batter life for example (Sphinx 1.5 that I had before had a great battery life).

5. Unfortunately, GPS signal losing that my phone has from time to time (and this was the reason for trying CM 11, though I understood that it is not likely that ROM can cause to this, just wanted to give it a chance) is still here and it happens exactly like it was with stock, MIUI, Sphinx (which is based on stock). Still can't find the solution for my GPS issues.
[LG Optimus G Pro] scufutz:
have you tried faterfix for gps ? i always have it in,my titanium backup

works on every rom
[LG Optimus G Pro] chizhk:
FasterFix (and similar applications) can help a little for initial GPS fix. My problem is different, the signal gets lost periodically (sometimes very frequently, even each 30-40 seconds) though the initial fix can be quite OK, around a half of minute.

About the thread subject - the battery life is not so good. The phone approximately loses 5% each hour when it is idle most of the time (just a few occasional calls). According to the battery details, most is spent on 'Cell standby', I suspect it does not go sleeping and wakes up all the time.

Since my GPS problem (which was my motivation to try CM11) is not solved, I am switching back to my backup (Spinx 1.5).

Anyone having issues with ring tone there's no volume when I get a call

---------- Post added at 05:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:17 PM ----------

Never mind that was due to my profile anyways the battery is kind of mediocre
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
Thanks for the detailed report. Got no issues at all from basic to semi-comlicated functions. Battery is an issue though.

Yes, battery seems to be not that good. I'll try to have changes in it. Thanks.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Ahad Ejaz:
I think the problem with the battery is the inability to go to deep sleep

Cause its only the stand by time that's actually much worse than stock as well as the music playback
[LG Optimus G Pro] Ahad Ejaz:
Here is a screenshot of my battery stats

As you can see even after turning WiFi off I'm still getting massive battery drain
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
I get that too. I'll ask the dev of the kernel if a mod can be made regarding the battery.
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
Just a heads up guys, 4.4.4 is out now, and it is freaking working in my device. Same flashing method for first time flashers, while just dirty flash on the current one if already using this.

Method for update:

1.) Wipe Dalvik

2.) Flash ROM update

3.) GAPPS 4.4.4

4.) This kernel

Wipe again the dalvik, if you want. Reboot.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Ahad Ejaz:
Damn cyanogen mod is so damn awsome the battery is the only issue I have right now

I installed the latest version straight away I loved it especially the new theme showcase

[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
Somehow. GO SMS PRO is the one killing my batt. Other than that, it's great.
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
Kindly do post a feedback. I am on COMMOTIO with the kernel, aside from go sms pro killing the battery, everything is great.

[LG Optimus G Pro] Ahad Ejaz:
man battery life is sitll too less for me i guess ill have to stick to stock
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
Yeah. Battery is a bummer. Your choice mate. Thanks for the feedback.
[LG Optimus G Pro] dkdkdk07:
Same for me but i still love the look and the responsiveness of aosp especially with art.. so i just have to charge it at the end of the day..^^ i hope the developer cud find the way to make our device sleep like a baby!
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
I have read that deep sleep is being worked at, together with the sound boost.
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
I get to live with random high Android OS drain bug. Stock is perfect, but this Custom ROMs are really great to try. If L or 4.4.4 would come to LG G PRO officially, maybe I'll try it.

http://lgviet.com/forum/threads/cm11-m8-f240l-s-k.23908/

can someone explain the difference of flashing this rom and flashing the e980 rom with this threads kernel?
[LG Optimus G Pro] jello1993:
At first, I tried installing Vanir and CM11, they said my device is not supported, so I edit the updater-script and add in the F240 model.

What to do when I flash the rom, recovery says that error found in system/media... something and then installation aborted? Thanks in advance. :good:
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
If you'll read and follow the instructions in the first post, you'll find a solution to your problem, mate.
[LG Optimus G Pro] jello1993:
Well I did follow the exact steps as shown.

Come from stock 4.4 kitkat rom. Not to mention the exact rom as in your given link.

Rooted, installed freegee 6.0.4.7 CWM.

Reboot to recovery.

1. Flash CM11 ROM

2. Flash GAPPS

3. Flash this kernel

Stuck at step 1 as I said.
[LG Optimus G Pro] qwertnerd:
Working well!

I wanted to try the Vanir Rom for so long and now I can. I have f240k and just flashed using your procedure. I can confirm that it is working well. However, just like you said the NFC does not work. Other than that i believe everything is working. I have a question (I am very new to this). Will the Vanir Rom Addons work with this?

Thank you so much for this post!
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
I assume they will. Kernel is the only difference in the E980 and F240x as far as I know. And good to know it is working well with you. :good:
[LG Optimus G Pro] dkdkdk07:
I managed to get deepsleep.. i deleted nfc.apk and all nfc related files thru root explorer..then voila! The phone slept! Hope it helps.
[LG Optimus G Pro] qwertnerd:
Froze em!

Thanks for that suggestion. Instead of deleting the NFC files I froze them through titanium backup and yes the result is better. Battery is holding up. I wish there is a cyanogen ROM for the 240k thats completely stable and devs come up with it. Using the Vanir right now 4.4.4 with the f240 kernel. I tried to look into the Vietnamese site lgviet but no success. Can't understand much either :confused:
[LG Optimus G Pro] fafalafafa:
do this kernel have voltage tuner?
[LG Optimus G Pro] fafalafafa:
whenever I install, it says Status 7.
[LG Optimus G Pro] dkdkdk07:
What recovery r u using? Use the one from freegee and follow OP steps.. i flashed sphinxrom first b4 flashing any aosp based rom beforehand btw.
[LG Optimus G Pro] ankitrocks:
nm

got it :)
[LG Optimus G Pro] mbar:
The only problem I have with CM11 and GPRO (with this kernel flashed) is the default phone application is totally unresponsive after the call is started. It does not react to any touches -- I can't disconnect, use keypad to sent DTMF, etc.

Anybody can confirm the same?
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
PAC also works on this KERNEL!
[LG Optimus G Pro] ikechukz:
Will this work if I am coming from stock 4.4.2.I have a limited data plan and can't afford to download the other rom.
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
Just follow the instructions in OP. All steps are required.
[LG Optimus G Pro] ikechukz:
I already flashed it from stock 4.4.2 and it works perfectly.Thanks for the reply though.

[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
On what ROM?
[LG Optimus G Pro] mohsin.android:
Battery back to normal

I am able to get battery life back to normal after doing some modifications in original kernel zip file.

Following modifications are done.

1. Disabled 'doubletap2wake' & 'sweep2wake' .

I guess this feature was consuming extra battery.

2. Added modules that will going to replace modules in 'system/lib/modules' folder.

Got these modules from another CM ROM that I was using before I came across this thread.

How to flash.

1. Reboot to recovery.

2. Clear 'dalvik cache'.

3. Flash modified kernel zip file.

4. Reboot & Enjoy.

Note: Don't forget to freeze Nfc stuff
[LG Optimus G Pro] mohsin.android:
See Post #66.

I have got a normal battery life.
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
Nice. You mean you disabled the 'doubletap2wake' & 'sweep2wake', you mean the feature is still there? But you just disabled it?
[LG Optimus G Pro] mohsin.android:
Yes I have disabled them.

If you look into "system/etc/init.d/97wake" file, you will find these two lines

'0' means disabled and '1' means enabled.

In the modified kernel zip If have removed the case statement which was there in original zip file.

I am always echoing 0 to these two files.

This feature was really annoying for me as it always wakes my phone in pocket and it was consuming extra battery as well.
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
Ah I see. I disable them using Performance Control app.
[LG Optimus G Pro] mohsin.android:
Please share you experience after trying this.
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
Same experience nothing changed actually on usage. Anything more you have done on the kernel?
[LG Optimus G Pro] mohsin.android:
Strange. Because battery life has improved for me.

Did you check Battery Menu inside Settings, if Nfc Services is consuming you battery, because it did happened to me, my NFC was left on and drained my battery.
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
NFC has never been an issue on my device. I guess I just have not noticed the effect on battery.
[LG Optimus G Pro] viewtifuljoe71:
How low are you able to underclock this kernel? The cpu is normally at 384. Can it go down to 81mhz? 192mhz?
[LG Optimus G Pro] mohsin.android:
I think 384 MHz is the minimum frequency allowed, look into Performance Settings.

Sharing my CPU frequency stats for last 12 hours.

My phone goes to deep sleep but it is for a very short period of time, I guess this is because of my application.
[LG Optimus G Pro] viewtifuljoe71:
Thanks for the info. Most cm kernels only go to 384. But the GPRO can go as low as 81. In your battery stats, something is keeping your phone awake. It should sleep longer than that.
[LG Optimus G Pro] MitoTakatori:
A request who can mod this kernel, can anyone make a volume boost tweak for this kernel?
[LG Optimus G Pro] mohsin.android:
How are you getting so long deep sleep??

Did you do following for that:

1. Disabled NFC

2. Disable doubletap2wake and sweep2ake

[LG Optimus G Pro] hakreul:
Hey man i appreciate the replies but the OP hasnt mentioned anything about converting to international version..

Plus i couldnt find any way to convert either
[LG Optimus G Pro] mohsin.android:
You can convert F240 to E980 variant at least on the software level by flashing this kernel.

This will help you to receive E980 updates from CM on your F240.

But on hardware level you can't change F240s to E980 because they have hardware differences.
