[RUU] Official 2.31.651.7 in ZIP Format, Flashable from Fastboot

As the title says, here's the Rom.zip extracted from RUU_Hero_C_Sprint_2.31.651.7_signed_release.exe for those that don't use Windows, or prefer to have their RUU in zip format.
This will flash your phone to 2.31.651.7 STOCK.
http://www.mediafire.com/?m6x4sr682ruk027
Simply rename this to HERCIMG.zip and place on the root of your SDCard.
Power your phone completely off.
Press and Hold VOL DOWN and POWER until your phone boots into HBoot mode.
Wait for it to verify the zip, then click <ACTION> (Trackball) to update, or <SEND> (Green Call) to cancel.
Enjoy!
Here's my guide to rooting .7:

Personally..I want to say THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
I have spent the last four hours searching for this. This needs to be stickied. I'm bookmarking it for sure. This got my phone unbricked..I thought all hope was lost and I would have to call in for warranty support (I got mine refurbed through Sprint last October..so I don't even know if I would still have any warranty support), and see if I could try my luck and getting it replaced, since that is what others have said to do as apparently this file from OP, did not exist.
And so for future reference, so that others don't go mindlessly searching through the forums.
If you
a.) Managed to overwrite your Recovery some how or completely delete it. (I did..and from searching this and many other forums over the past couple hours..I can see I wasn't the only one), and also have no boot (or a corrupted boot loop)
b.) Still have S-ON (You can find this out by powering off your phone and then pressing and holding the power button and the lower volume button), I recommend you turn S-Off for future reference if you're going to be dealing with customer ROMs a lot (so you don't have to go through the hell I just did..). See here..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=759955
c.) Have an updated Hboot (1.47) (you can also find this info. in part b.)
....then you KNOW that you are stuck. Because you
a.) Cannot flash a ROM in Recovery because you cannot access it.
b.) You cannot access ADB because your phone won't go that far and will only go into fastboot..
c.) But even though you have access to fastboot you can't do ANYTHING like flash a recovery image or a ROM..or anything for that matter..because S is still ON. (this is the "not allow" messages you will see pop up.)
d.) You have bootloader 1.47 so if you for example, were like me couldn't use this file here.. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=657086), because it would say there was a newer version and wouldn't install it.
So this file right here..was the only thing getting my phone back to a usable state. And considering that my searches have shown to pretty much give up all hope and have it sent it for warranty repair, then I think this thread deserves a bump for all those that have screwed up.
Yeah..I have to start ALL OVER now from a stock ROM (thank god for nandroid), but at least my phone isn't a dead brick.
Just thought this needed a well deserved bump.

I wonder if there is a RUU for the latest .2?

Wanted to say BIG THANKS. This worked like a charm to update prl/profile. Keeping two copies of this one on the sd and on the laptop. Thanks again.

Forgive me for seeming NOOBish... but I can use this to do the same, then restore Nandroid back and it will keep the PRL/Profile update?
Just wondering... lolz, thanks!

Yup But you will have to reroot. This takes root from you. You will have to reroot with the Hero rooter from Reg or Z4 or one click root. But read read read. And as far as the prl/profile yup it will stick. When your phone boots up after running this just go into settings and updates and choose update profile and update prl don't update firmware. I repeat don't update firmware. After that just reboot and check your prl should be 60675. After that reroot, then flash a recovery and then nand restore. Hope this helps good luck
Remember this returns you to stock you will loose root and recovery..
Yea it's me Again. With the

Why don't you guys just flash NFX's or LS's already rooted and way faster stock sense ROM to update PRL, etc?
Running stock ROM has to be one of the worst things ever after being on custom ROMs for so long.

I tried flashing almost ever sense rom on here pmgrands port, ninfintes stock odex and deodex and his apps 2 sd builds he has like 4 or 6 different builds. Tried flashing liquids builds beta and stable. All gave me a error. So I had to use this. I couldn't flash any sense rom
and it was easier to use this than try to figure out y. If he can flash a sense rom then yea that's the easier way but if not this is a for sure way to get back to stock.

I still have my original nandroid from before I flashed any ROMs and it takes me back to stock Sprint, where I do my updating. Is this faster than that?

Yup. That's way better and faster. Just go into settings / updates. Then just update prl and profile. Don't update firmware. After you confirm that your updated just nand restore and you should be good.
Edit not sure if you would have to reroot.

Thanks for the reply's all... I like Sense and have NFX rom on my Hero, loaded a few ROMS but they won't update, so no worries, when I have some free time I'll sit and do it then. I don't like the one click rooters nor the clockwork recovery, I guess I'm old school and do it the hard way, lol, but thanks for letting me know it'll work (prl update) and stay on the handset!
Regards!

Without opening a huge can of worms I would like to know whats the best newest rom out there with sense I just searched for like 3 hours and lot of threads are old and I want what ever is new with sense also would like to upgrade to 2.2 im on Honeybun v.-2 lite firmware 2.1 update1

No need to reroot because it was a nandroid. Can't make a nandroid if you're not rooted.

What? Is your phone even rooted? Sprint upgraded to 2.1 a LONG time ago, the update is available at www.htc.com

It worked for me a while ago, but my dad just got a new hero so I tried using this, and it wouldn't recognize the image file.. any thoughts?

yeah, this only works if he has an S-off bootloader, which he doesn't have if it's a new hero.

According to the OP this one was extracted from the RUU, so it *should* work S-ON.

CWM blackscreen? Look here before posting!

So you are looking at this because you have recently rooted your phone. You are probably trying to flash your first rom and either, you booted into recovery and it was a black screen, or your tried flashing a rom from rom manager and it goes to a black screen.
Now most dev's have a faq posted to eliminate new posts popping up every day, but here I will attempt to tell you how to fix this.
FIRST MAKE A BACKUP the screen will go black when it is backing up, but wait 10-15 minutes and your phone will reboot.
Currently there are three options. There are other options, but these are more user friendly.
Option 1
1. Place This(thanks to nsnc) file on the root of your sd card, boot into hboot by turning off fast boot, restart, hold power+vol down.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Option 2 (longer then option 3):
1. You can return your phone completely to stock removing root and s-off. You can find a very helpful link to do that here.
2. Once your phone has been completely returned to stock, download the Hack Kit(thanks to attn1). Make sure you follow the instructions completely, and to a tee.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Option 3:
1. You are going to need to eng s-off the phone using the one click eng s-off Here(thanks to jkoljo).
2. Once you eng s-off and have a working cwm it is highly recommended you turn eng s-off, on. So that you only have radio s-off. You can do that by using this PD98IMG. Download and place on the root of your sd card. You will need to boot into hboot using power+volume down. When it asks you to update select yes with the volume buttons. (note this is just like flashing a new rom so it will do a full wipe)
Once you have radio s-off you may have to flash an older CWM recovery, but you can now restore your backup if you wish to.

Currently these are the known ways to fix this problem. If more ways should arise they will be added to this post.
Please be sure to READ the dev's FAQ section as well.
*NOTE*

Hope this helps.

I considered using that, but I wanted to make the process more user friendly.

did you see the update at the bottom of the first post? I put that PD98IMG.zip on the root of my sd and then went to hboot and let it find the file. Worked great.

The only thing I ask is that you post the post where you found it/ and or the person who made it.

Am I to understand all we have to do is put this PD98img.zip file on the SD Card (after renaming it) and it will clear up the CWM problem we are having without doing Eng-S-off? This seems pretty easy, but I am curious about what ROM it is when we reflash, is it the Stock AT&T?

This is not a ROM file, just a repaired bootloader that installs using hboot. AFAIK, it leaves whatever ROM you are using intact. In fact, on my phone, it didn't change a thing, other than clockwork now works...

See my post above. NSNC posted this fix a while back. The PD98IMG is in the update of the OP
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1003086&highlight=eng
It works well so far. I used it myself.

OP updated

worked like a charm, thanks guys!

Worked great for me too. At last, let the ROM flashing begin! Thanks for finding this.

I believe I am suffering from this problem. It's been 15 minutes + though and I am still in that screen. Should I pull the battery and reinstall it?
Thanks in advance.

Sure: My phone has been rooted, I entered CWM, downloaded Cyanogenmod and attempted to flash it. I followed the prompts, backed everything up, and when installation (I guess you call it that?) began it went to a black screen.
It is still in that screen, I just tried holding down the power but nothing occurred.

It might of failed to flash, I would pull the battery, place the PD98IMG from the first post from option number one place it on your sd card (not in a file and do not unpack) boot into hboot using power and volume down, It will flash the file from hboot, once it has flashed remove the PD98IMG from your sd card, boot into hboot again go to recovery from hboot. See if that works.

CWM broken, need help

So here's the situation. I've been running NoSensi 1.0.4 ROM w/o problems for the past month but all of a sudden tonight my phone started to freeze up. I would take the battery out and turn it back on but after a few minutes the phone would freeze up again. So I decided to try to flash the new version on NoSensi (1.0.8) and the first step was to flash the NoSensi_EXT4_Wipe and it was almost complete in CWM when it froze up and wouldn't respond. Waited a few more minutes to be sure it wasn't just taking a while so I took the battery out and went back into recovery. In CWM, I see the menu options but when I try to select install from SD, the CWM menu would reset every few seconds and leave me at the main screen.
So now I'm stuck with a phone that won't boot cause I don't have a proper ROM on and can't install a new ROM cause CWM is messed up.
Any ideas on how I can reinstall CWM or something?

First off, can you boot to hboot? And next do you have adb set up on your PC or Mac?
I'm gonna be honest with you, I can't really help you all the way but can give you the things you need to get started. And if anyone reads this and knows more about this please help thanks

Yes, I believe I can get into HBOOT, I get the white screen where the option of going into recovery of HBOOT. I do have adb on my PC, but don't know how to use it unless I have instructions.

Okay I remember going through the threads and saw something on using the PD98 img that has the recovery img inside instead of the system img. Ill look around but probably in the morning since its almost 2 for me. Or if someone knows what I'm talking that'd be great

I built a recovery PD98IMG for a user yesterday. It is the recovery I've been using since I rooted. It is v3.0.2.5 with offmode power mod, but It doesn't have any EXT4 support (don't get me started on EXT4).
CWM Recovery v3.0.2.5 in PD98IMG format:
http://hoxnet.com/droid/PD98IMG_cwmrecovery.zip
Rename to exactly "PD98IMG.zip" and place it on the root (top level directory) of your sdcard, then boot to HBOOT and it should pick it up and prompt you to install.
I'm worried that there may be some hardware problem with your device if it keeps freezing up like that. It might just be a loose battery or loose sim holder, but it might be worse. I'd try to install a stock RUU just to be sure. You can install this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1191793
It is completely stock and you'll lose root, but not S-OFF so re-rooting is easy. You can instead, install my rooted version of this ROM too. Identical to stock except that the system and boot images are properly rooted and busybox is installed:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16118438#post16118438
If you must send it in for repairs and need to restore to factory settings, I have a tool for that too:

Got CWM back with this, thanks so much! I tried doing the same method that was mentioned in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1019868 but kept having issues with CWM resetting every 2 seconds which didn't allow me to use it at all.

HTC warranties the device for a year. I don't think any Inspire is a year old yet so you might want to call them first. Even if not covered by warranty, HTC is pretty reasonable on repairs.

So I tried reverting back to stock via the PD98IMG method with both the gingerbread and complete stock in the post you mentioned. Both them it updates fine but on the reboot it just hangs on the white htc screen. Any recommendations? Would HTC warranty if it's stuck like that?

It sounds like a hardware problem to me. The first and most obvious sign that a phone has been rooted is the S-OFF in the HBOOT screen. They probably won't warranty it if this is still set. Unfortunately, you need a functioning phone to get to the point that you can re-apply S-ON. I'm really not sure what advice I can give you at this point.

Missing CWM / No Recovery
Through a long string of mistakes, I'm stuck with an Inspire that will not load Recovery (just get black screen with phone icon and red exclamation point).
This thread was the best match I could find. I used the method above (renamed Gene Pool's file to PD98IMG.zip, placed on SD root), but HBOOT does not seem to find it during the startup scan.
Here is what I've got:
ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-0.85.0007
I've tried 2 different SD cards - I got into this mess because radio updates were not being found in PD98IMG.zip files either, so feel like its an HBOOT problem.
Any ideas?

If you are sure you renamed it correctly (Windows didn't mangle the name with its stupid "hide extensions" feature) and you are S-OFF, then the only other thing it could be is a bad or weak SD Card. Do you have a spare to try?

I solved this. Figured it was not reading my SD cards so I reformatted one (FAT32), redid everything, and was able to re-flash CWM. Bizarre, since the same card has been used successfully several times on this phone.

HTC Thunderbolt Issues - Stuck at HTC Logo... Recovery not working, etc...

here is my issue.
2 weeks ago, i rooted my phone. all was well. flashed CWM Recovery 5.0.2.1 for my Thunderbolt. I made a backup just before i rooted so that in case ANYTHING went wrong, it would unroot me and fix any problems. So, here i am, backing up apps with Titanium Backup, and it backed up fine. The next thing i did was start to uninstall HTC Bloatware... I knew which ones were the ones i could remove, plus even if i removed the wrong one, i could just restore using my image backup. After removal, the phone instantly ran better. i had over 65% free memory space... This was all well and good, until i rebooted the phone. the instant i rebooted my phone, i was getting the flashing HTC Quietly Brilliant screen. i had done NOTHING to it to cause this. It would alternate from HTC splash to Thunderbolt animation.
So, knowing what was wrong, (UI not loading) i went to recover my image from CWM. that went fine. but things just got worse. After a successful recovery (according to CWM) i rebooted, but to my surprise, now its worse. its stuck at the HTC boot logo. ALL MANNER OF ROMS DO NOT WORK!!! recoveries, new OS, anything, all the same result. AT LEAST with the thunderstick full blown ROM, i can get back to the looping splash screen, but not any further. i DONT KNOW what is wrong but i am hoping one of you mad phone geniuses out there can get my phone working. i tried getting s-off with revolutionary, but it failed because the phone has to be booted up for it to work, and is something i obviously cant do at this point... relocking the phone made things worse too because i unlocked using the HTCdev method.
This is not a boot loop, as it doesnt loop. it just sits there. i have tried every available resource on this, and other sites. i must have read over 1,000 posts in the past week to try and gather what the devil happened to my phone... If its any help, i did accidently delete the settings storage APK file, but a restore should have fixed that. i want to lock up the phone to send it in for repair but i cant gain s-off to flash a new radio with the phone in its current state. i know how to do all if these things but the phone wont let me.

Reformat the sd card to fat32 and flash an RUU file to put you back to stock.

any RUU downloads that would have been available on multiupload.com are disabled and redirects to to "the internet vs., holywood". besides, as i said, any attempt to flash any rom no matter what it is fails. Well, technically it FLASHES ok, but doesnt actually work. as far as i know, the phone has 2 bootloaders in any given android phone. There is the primary HTC Bootloader (Hboot) and a secondary ROM UI Bootloader. (Android Boot) i think what has happened is that this part has become corrupted and i wanted to know how to access this and reformat that. supposedly you cant because its partitioned, and formatting the partitions would fix my issue. problem is that i have done all of this. to answer the second reply, yes, i can get the phone to be recognized in any mode as long as its fastboot, or recovery. Fastboot.exe works, and adb recognizes it in recovery as being IN recovery mode. unfortunately, with my device still locked, i cannot flash a new bootloader, which might solve my problem. this is not like any issue currently on XDA so far as i read, so this is why i created a new thread.
I am sure the Moderators will agree that my problem seems to be unique. After reading what seems to be hundreds of forums, i cannot solve the issue. While technically i am a newbie here, i am no stranger to modding phones. i have been at it for over 4 years now. THIS problem is absolutely a first for me. At least before i could restore using CWM, but even that failed. i checked my MD5 Sum for CWM backup and it checked out.
If someone can provide me a link to an ORIGINAL, unmodded, RUU that shipped with the phone, (PRE OTA 2012) that ISNT that stupid file-factory corrupted crap, i would be extremely indebted to that person. last time i used File-factory, it took THREE hours and the download was corrupted according to CWM. it refused to flash the phone even though Chrome said it completely downloaded (Error: Bad - Installation Aborted). There was no MD5 SUM to compare with so thats also another problem. i absolutely need that info to properly flash the phone. All the other ROMS i downloaded like TSGB and Lightning Rom technically flashed fine after a full wipe, but refused to go past their own "Open Mobile" splash screen.
So you see, i am at a loss with this phone, as all i did was reboot after rooting it, and nothing i did could have possibly caused this kind of failure...

ok. so the download finished fine so far as i know, but now CWM says ITS bad too. i will try again but i cant seem to flash any stock rom no matter if its OTA or pre-OTA from CWM. is there a way to flash a rom from the PC via adb or something?

Ohh! They're not flashed through CWM. They're flashed through hboot. Just rename it to PG05IMG.zip and put on SD card and boot to hboot it will ask you to flash
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2

i will try that. previous hboot flashes always fail. it reads the archive, but never goes to "checking zip". it loads, checks, and then parses. i was successful with my evo shift earlier today, but that thing is ancient compared to my thunderbolt. With the Shift, i was able to gain root AND s-off with an old bootloader and i dont even need a new one.
i wanted to do the same with my bootloader in case another disaster hits because then i can flash whatever RUU i want with s-off. i will make sure the MD5 SUM matches before flashing. i forgot to do that anyhow.

Hboot flash failed. went through the motions of scanning it and it scanned the whole thing and then did nothing. it returned me to Boot Choices. Like Fastboot, recovery, etc... i tried twice. are you absolutely certain that is the shipping firmware that formats the entire phone, and not just updates it? i cant send it to verizon even though they know it was illegal to lock up my phone... Anyhow, i realy need this thing working and i have racked my brain enough to damage it already... lol. if it fails again i will try to redownload it. So far it loads and does NOT ask me to start the update. could be a version issue because it does not complain about anything else.

Have you tried following the instructions in the return to stock thread in the android development section stickies? This may help you.

yes i have. i cannot do what it asks because it requires my phone to be functional to flash it using hboot. i need a signed copy of an older RUU. hboot doesnt do anything with it. its a valid copy, and i can see all the images and contents in windows and linux, but all i can get hboot to do is read it, then it doesnt ask me to update. i dont know what to do now.

I believe there is a ruu image without hoot download there.

ok well i will literally try ALL of the signed images. i will see if hboot will update it.

If your hboot is flashed with revolutionary I believe you have to unlock it before anything thing else can be flashed over that. Hboot or emmc could be corrupted as well.

How i fixed my tbolt stuck at the white HTC screen
I had this exact same problem literally yesterday (stuck at HTC screen) with some different cwm symptoms. I'm guessing my cwm was corrupted because the phone would reboot after about 30 seconds being in cwm, preventing me from flashing any roms. oh, and my backup image was corrupted as well. awesome. Flashing other CWMs did not fix the CWM problem.
Your problem sounds similar in the fact the CWM won't flash properly. You're trying to fix it by trying to flash a rom in HBOOT that isn't configured to be flashed that way. for example, i put the skyraider rom (named properly) in the root folder and tried to flash with HBOOT. it scanned and parsed but didn't give me the option to flash.
What I did was go here and grab a stock like image:
androidforums.com/thunderbolt-all-things-root/418539-thunderbolt-root-unroot-thread.html
(won't let me make a link, i'm too new)
Go to the "Putting current stock firmware and s-on back onto the phone" section.
Download file 1 and flash it using HBOOT. I had to pull my sd card to get the file on there since cwm was crashing. Only flash that rom and nothing else. It flashed for me; if it doesn't flash for you then maybe your HBOOT is corrupted, and if so i don't know if you can fix it.
Once that flashes, reboot the phone and it should return to some level of functionality. You'll have S-off but no recovery or root tools installed. I ran revolutionary at this point, which recognized i already had S-off...then it offered to load CWM. This i did. in the meantime i deleted the unrooted image and put the image of the rom i wanted on the sd card. i then booted into recovery(it won't flash in HBOOT) and loaded that rom (skyraider zeus). That worked fine and the cwm didn't crash out.
I hope this works for you. I was getting ready to fire back up my OG droid before i did this.

I have read that post you provided probably 100 times its not working for me. flashing a custom rom actually got me past the HTC white screen and into a splash screen loop (Open Mobile). Also, I havent even been able to use the REV tool because my phone is not recognized by it without it being fully functional. you have to be fully booted up for the REV tool to use adb and start the process. thats why i need a signed copy of an older ROM with hboot flashing capability so i can fully restore my phone. i am 100% sure its a corruption issue, but i am out of clues as to how to actually get it to flash over while being s-on. with the evo shift it worked perfectly. it only took me 20 minutes to root, s-off and flash a custom rom. this phone has been a thorn in my side ever since i accepted that STUPID FOTA... i regret not knowing before hand what that OTA was and what it prevented. Now i know, too little / too late.
without s-off, i cant unlock hboot to flash it, and the fastboot mw whatever command failed also because its locked tight.

thats what i thought. is there a way to change out that eMMC, or remove it to format it manually? i mean based on the description, its technically external which implies removable.

Yes you can format emmc I do not know if this will solve your problem. You wipe abd format through adb but need to see if it is being mounted first.

too bad i cannot repartition it to allow for more RAM instead of app space. i dont care about app space because i have a 32gb card... lol. i just want that phone to be faster than what it is currently once i finally get it running.

bricked one x

So earlier i attempted to do the 2.2 root.
i managed to get as far as rooting, installing superuser and CWM
now, the problem is when i went to flash the rom, i tried to run the super wipe, but was getting errors about the sdcard not being able to be mounted. and the wipe was not performed/failed/aborted etc
i tried to run flash the rom still, it loaded, but still gave an error at the end and did not work.
reboot the phone, and i get the HTS quietly brilliant screen with red text that says"this build is for development purposes only...." and from here it does nothing but constantly reboot to this screen.
i am able to get to the bootloader screen, and fastboot works.
ive tried factory resetting the phone, as well as using the CWM recovery. i am unable to do any. as the CWM cannot write to e:\sd card
its not mounted, and i cannot mount it, when i try to reformat the sd card, it says it is unmounted.
mount usb storage was not working either, and said files were missing.
i read on other threads about needing the sd card reformatted, but the one x has an internal card.
please help
i feel like it can be fixed, but im really worried my phone is bricked
eta: i tried to revert to the stock ruu, but i think i should have read it more clearly.
so i guess i flashed the ruu that was NOT 2.2
now my CWM is gone, and i can only get onto the bootloader and fast boot
under fastboot devices my device's serial does show up
ETA: i reflashed with twrp, managed to wipe my sdcard, and am now able to mount.
from here my phone is still not able to boot up.
i can attempt to run the super wipe, but am still getting an error
"E:error in /sdcard"

im trying to install the Android Revolution HD 9.7.2 Ice Cream Sandwich
it allows me to choose settings, and such and start install.
after starting install, it goes through the files and such, but when it gets to /system/lib/ it just closes on itself, and goes back to twrp screen and recovery home. the rom never finishes installing. right now im gonna re-download the rom and see if that works.
if i cannot install the custom rom, how can i go back to stock exactly?
do i need to find the stock ruu?

fixed it.
turns out im stupid and was using a rom not compatible with this phone.
i flashed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1907324 so far, and it seems to be working
however, i prefer something closer to stock. can anyone suggest a rom?

hopefully you aren't using cwm anymore and flashed twrp for the evita.

I didn't even have to use the search function. 2 are near the top of General. The remaining has slipped past the first page, but its still pretty high up there.
People who flash a ROM for the international version are simply neglecting to do any basic reading and learning before flashing things willy-nilly, that's my point.

thanks for the help guys. i flashed viper xl yesterday night right after, loving it thus far. i was just so used to the sense keyboard already, and hated the cramped jb keyboard, and this rom has simple little tweaks
i did read, but i guess not thoroughly enough. in hindsight, i wasnt aware that the one x was different than the xl, its fairly easy to miss that the other roms are not compatible with this phone. and is completely different alltogether.
if i had known that, i wouldnt have flashed cwm, and would not have need to post a help thread. all "solutions" i attempted on my own were based off readings of the hox, rather than the evita, once again causing more problems. it was easily enough fixed once i figured that bit of information out.
i am a noob, but this phone is not my first time rooting, so with my prior knowledge i felt i was more than ready to tackle this rom flashing, im sure plenty of others will make the same mistake as i did.
the other phones ive rooted and flashed had their one model of phone only, so all the roms available were compatible.
im just glad my phone is not bricked, and i now have root access

From what others are saying, the newer hboot that came with 2.20 is write protected. Hboot can't be overwritten by flashing a ROM for the international One X. ROM just fails to flash, and you get a recoverable condition like this one, as opposed to hard bricks on the older hboot.

Yea, at least there's one good thing that came with the dreaded update
