flashing a ruu - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Excuse my ignorance, this is my first HTC device...how do you flash a ruu?

Thread belongs in Q&A

This tells you how. Looks pretty straight forward -
- Download RUU file to Windows PC (or Windows emulation/VM)
- Connect phone to PC via USB
- Run exe file and follow instructions
- ...
- Profit!

haha, this is the type of answer that xda should have whenever these types of things happen. Other threads would have some person flaming and cussing the hell out of the OP just cuz of a misplaced thread.

Thanks guys for the answers, and sorry about it being in the wrong spot. I looked to edit it and change it but couldn't find where to change threads.

Very organized and helpful, thank you.
I updated the ROM section. I included a description of each ROM, put the most recent update date, updated the version numbers, and put them in order of newest to oldest.
I also put a backup section and included a how to on backing up your phone using Clockwork. It may need some further explanation but I provided the basics. I also updated the WiMax portion since it can now be done using Clockwork.

If I don't need their permission then I will... but I didn't want to break any rules.

Hehe...yeah...I realized that once I got in there and didn't see any of the latest ROMs I had been reading about. And people wonder why newcomers prefer to ask questions rather than just read a bunch of stickies.

Undeadk9 Thanks .. and >how to delet my post ? I can only edit it
You need to get S-OFF as well (use Hasoon's OTHER kit, or follow the links for JuoponutBear). Alternatively, since you're S-ON currently, you need to take a file out of the zip file and flash it separately first, then reflash the whole ROM zip. You'll find instructions on which file it is and how to do it if you search!

I can tell you that the way to NOT install a ROM is to join a forum and have your first (or second) post be "How the hell do I put a rom on my phone???". In fact, you are flirting with being banned but I'll leave that up to the moderators. Read, read, and read. Look at the stickies and search. I made it easy in my signature. Take care now.
Wow...

Got to love it

So I post a thread about asking a question in this forum . And instead of getting help , I get opinions and a closed thread . Must feel like a big man closing threads on people who ask questions or ask for something that's not on here yet .
Awesome help . Thanks again .

Not sure what happen in that post.
What you can do is flash cwm recovery, use the cwm backup of the 1.84.
Once done you can flash back TWRP recovery again and make a backup of your phone using TWRP recovery.
A little long process but should work since there's not a TWRP backup of 1.84.

This post certainly is inappropriate... but I do agree with OP
He asked a legit question in the right forum? What was the big deal???
Sorry I don't have a clean backup for u. Hopefully u find what u r looking for. Or, u can just flash ruu in bootloader as was suggested.

I saw your post and didn't think it out of line, just had no nandroid
baseballfanz suggestion was way to go
flash cwr, install stock nandroid, flash twrp, back up--done in 10-15 minutes

Dont forget to fastboot boot recovery.img and flash the firmware pack available somewhere around here...updated radio, wifi, kernel and dsp images that won't flash with CWR.
cwr 5.8.3.1 is now available thru Rom Mgr if you don't have fastboot
nandroid will restore all but radio if you want a different radio then you have--that is true for cwr or twrp
so barring radio--which is a whole different set of procedures--it still should take only 15 minutes
less time than all these posts took--

First off, You did NOT post in the right section, you posted in General and you should have posted in Q&A.
Secondly this thread is useless and as such will be closed, however.....
Lastly, I don't know why exactly it was closed, but I will reopen the original thread and contact the mod that closed it to see what his reason was.

Sorry, but you are totally and completely wrong. XDA is a site for DEVELOPMENT, not for helping people who are too lazy to search and read for themselves. I wasn't being rude, so I'm not sure why you quoted me when you made that comment - perhaps once you have seen the same question being asked 200 times you will realise why we start to get annoyed by it.
