(roms) - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Hello guys. Hey so I'm from the Samsung phone side of flashing and am not new to this. But i do have one question . What rom can I use and still be able to go back to stock? Im thinking that if I stay away from the 1.8 ruu stuff I'll be ok? And if I do how do we return to 100% stock . Thanks ahead of time for your insight and help

No one can answer

you need to root using the root method, then install a rom that is based on 1.72 whatever. If you want to go back stock, use the 1.72 ruu.

But if I try the newer 8 series then I'm stuck on that

Yes, you're stuck, until bootloader is unlocked.

any roms available
Hi,
I Have an Rogers HTC One x
Evita 1.73 ......
Bootloader Unlocked
Rooted and CWM install
I just followed JSLEnterprises method to debrand ...
now I have a clean HTC Vanilla XL .. as they say
Looking to try new Roms, are their any available that or compatible with my device, or I should I just patiently wait for flashable

why dont you visit the dev section and see for yourself?
didnt think CWM was working at all at the moment

Wow man chill i did and I just wanted clarification. And I never said I used cwm just talking about the ruu roms we have . Why is everyone so quick to flame and jump , some people like to be sure that's the case so they don't get in hole they cant get out of. Thanks for your concern but that's what forums are for to help each other

One of the devs just figured out how to downgrade

Well for one thing, don't use the 1.85 RUU that just got leaked today until root is regained for it. I'm running 1.82, though I'm hard pressed to find any improvement since I didn't have any problems beforehand (like the WiFi problems people were having on 1.73). Maybe a bit smoother? Idk.

That's my dilemma my phone runs great it has its moments but all in all good. But I like to tinker and its hard not to . I'm looking for some good reasons to and against . Any feedback is great thank you

I mean, some things might go wonky if you don't do a factory reset before and after flashing the 1.83 RUU and tried to root. I know that two people (one of them being me) lost our lock screen rings after running the root script for 1.83. Re-RUUing with wipes fixed everything.
Otherwise you really have nothing to lose by doing this besides maybe your warranty and whatever time you have to spend setting up your phone again (TiBu is a godsend)

I have paid for many apps.to save me time in the whole dev side. I have also.made a few eons for Samsung.infuse but never let them out because people are.crazy. I'm used to Samsung and all new to HTC

Sorry for bothering you !!!!

[Q] 2.3.3 to 2.2?

I'm a bit confused. I've been reading online for a while, and don't fully understand the ROMs available and what not. (I am a computer programmer, so I'm fairly tech savvy).
Basically, my evo shift has 2.3.3. I did a factory reset hoping it would back down to 2.2, but it did not. Now, I'd like to install 2.2 so I can root my phone. Is there a way I can do this? I've also seen a few roms (ie: evervolv) that are rooted. How can I install these (i'm using a mac).
Also, what do you guys recommend? Should I install a ROM, downgrade to 2.2 (how?) and root, etc?
Thanks!
You cannot downgrade to Froyo.. Sorry. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1218580

You can only temp root right now with 2.3 on the Shift. A factory reset just wipes everything and basically gives you a clean OS...it's like getting a new phone. The good folks at HTC should be releasing the the source code and kernel between now and EOL of the phone.

just my 1.5 cents worth
Yeah, I've read lots. I posted because it's good to have clarification.
I've read that you cannot "downgrade" to 2.2 from 2.3, but that doesn't necessarily answer my question if I can flash a 2.2 ROM..
I know 2.3.3 isn't rooted yet, but that doesn't necessarily mean I can't flash a ROM with an older, rooted version (very common in modchips for gaming systems.. If the company releases an update, you can usually re-flash the chip to the old update and be good to go).
So, it seems that if my phone is 2.3, my *ONLY* option is to temp root, is that correct (impossible to reflash, reprogram, etc)?

You need root and recovery (or the old hboot) in order to flash anything. So yes, until a new root method is found your only option is to temp root.

First android device, have a question.

Hey , I'm new here so ill say hi too. Anyways , a week ago I got a Desire S for my birthday and before i had an ipod touch. I know that jailbreaking an ios device is easy and if you mess up you simply restore. What about an android device? What are the risks of rootibg and can you restore itback to its original state for warranty purposes? Are the roms there any roms available for daily use? ( 3.2.5, sense 3.5 , ice cream sandwich? ) Thanks in advance
Oh and, if ill decide to root what should I do / save to uunroot?
Android's are usually quite easy to restore. Just download the RUU thingy, available on this forum.
this thread is really good
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1146601
just give a good read through all the threads in the guide section.
I've found that it's not easy to brick an android device or mess something up. All you need is a backup of your rom (which you'll understand after reading the guides) and you should be safe.
Well all I need to do is save my ROM? How do I do that?
Also what are kernels and radios and hboots? completely newbie to this..

Follow the link and read the general guides. If you still have questions then please do ask

Well I couldn't really find anything about kernels and radios, and to backup my ROM I need a rooted device? What if its too late? How can I know if I have a faulty chip?I don't want to wreck my device...
Well there's not much you can do if your chip is faulty, but you can do things to stop your phone breaking.
Never pull the battery out is a key one. If you have to, try pressing volume up + down and the power button at the same time. There are also other things you should do. Ben Pyett is great with helping about the eMMC problem
The radio and hboot is something you shouldn't worry about. I've never bothered messing around with them and you really don't need to.
Kernels are flashed in the same way as ROMs. Through clockworkmod recovery or 4ext recovery. Whichever you want. All you have to do is choose the right one for the ROM you're flashing ie a sense kernel for a sense rom. In the desire s section you'll find 3 sense kernels and 1 aosp kernel. AOSP are ROMs like cyanogenmod which don't have any GUIs like sense. With two of the kernels ( Hyperion and Endymion) you must choose the right version of sense. Hyperion is for sense 3.0 and Endymion is for sense 3.5 and the unity kernel can be used for any version of sense.
Making a backup is easy. All you have to do is go into recovery and select the backup and restore option and choose backup. You must do this before flashing a custom ROM because if the install fails you'll have something to fall back on.
I've tried my best but if you still have more questions then ask.

Always make a nandroid backup, it just means if anything goes wrong you should be able to restore your phone to it's exact previous state.

Yep, the free version of titanium only allows one by one backup, but if you get the full version it can do multiple backups in one go

Also , my dad really liked the 3.5 update so I tried doing the same on his Desire and well when its reaches "zerging root" it says that it failed with a sad smiley..
Could it be because he has a update available but won't install it? ( As its impossible for him because at the end of the New firmware download it says damaged file or something.. )

Hi
I if you use sense 3.5, swype is already built in. Go to the keyboard settings and turn htc trace on.
Swype away!
However if you want full swype, its a beta, I recommend just signing up on their website to get the apk, its free
Not to sure about your dads desire, best bet is to ask the desire forum
Hope it helps...

Sadly I can't find swype under keyboard and language.. using same Rom as you I think ( mine is 3.0 I think.. not sure.)
I'll ask in the desire forum about my dads desire , thanks.

there's the swype installer, that's what you need to install swype, but i think you still have to sign up. Might be wrong though.

Looks like the devs are not working on Root for 1.85

Arg....seems like the devs have moved on to getting s-off and coming out with new roms and have given up on finding exploits to root 1.85. The threads for root have been empty for a while now...wondering if its time to exchange the phone or return it and want for the sg3?
I know i'm not the only person frustrated for upgrading to 1.85....
I thought you could RUU back to 1.82 if you wanted and then root?

You can. That is what I did. It's pretty simple.
Revert to 1.82, root,
one click superCID
relock in fast boot
ruu 1.85
flash the unlock token from fastboot, it took me a few tries before it took
flash a recovery (twrp is working well for us right now)
and then use the recovery to flash the SU zip file. Then you're all set
Well this is how it works.
Once you update your RUU to 1.85 then install CWM (flashing utility in recovery) You will just flash the Rom you wish this will give you root.
Hope this clears things up?
I'm unclear on the rooted 1.85 but from what I gather you have to have done superCID hack before upgrading to be able to gain root. I believe you have to also have superCID to do ruu to a previous firmware. I may be wrong but if your on 1.85 without superCID I think your SOL for now atleast.

Why? Because it's the right thing to do. As I said above, we've all been there, and I'm quite sick and tired of so many others (THEY shall remain nameless), who can't spend a few extra seconds of their precious time to provide a better explanation than the simple "just do it in fastboot," or "use adb," etc.
Yes, I've now learned exactly what these two simple statements mean, but it really would have been nice, and far, far, far easier not just for me, but everyone if, instead of saying the following ...
flash it in fastboot
...they instead said something like ...
open a command prompt, navigate to your adb folder, and flash in fastboot using the following line:
fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxx.img
Wow, it took me an extra 10 seconds. Oh, my goodness, my fingers are now so sore. I think I'll head to the hospital. Be back later.

P.S. And don't anyone dare tell me, like someone did yesterday, that I should basically shut up and stop "sassing" (their word) the developers because they work so hard at what they do. You know, I probably work as hard if not MUCH harder than most of them, yet I will always try my very best to give some of my time to others. Again, as I said above, it's the right thing to do. You know, maybe if more people did just that, the world wouldn't be so full of self-centred, egotistical ingrates.

Ah your correct there was another thread on how to get root through AT&T ready to go app but they blocked that now so looks like the OP waited to long.

Or didn't wait enough. Don't update official firmware without knowing if existing root methods will still work, unless you are willing to live with the consequences.

You can. That is what I did. It's pretty simple.
Revert to 1.82, root,
one click superCID
relock in fast boot
ruu 1.85
flash the unlock token from fastboot, it took me a few tries before it took
flash a recovery (twrp is working well for us right now)
and then use the recovery to flash the SU zip file. Then you're all set

Wow. All that and I'm not sure it will even work. Makes me realize how nice it is to have devices like the Nexus that are not locked down as much as HTCs latest on AT&T.
It also seems like Samsung devices are not as difficult to deal with than HTC and the locked bootloader and S-On.

read that post...this allows you to downgrade...with you can get root...
however...you have to get some $$ off of your pocket..
redpoint73 said:
You mean the one linked in the post I just quoted? Like I said, that one says it requires root.
Lots of people are saying "just downgrade" on this thread. But I don't think its possible.

So only option is to get a new OneX and hope it has 1.82 or below? I'm not even sure root and ROMs are that critical to me but just curious

You have installed something to make it slow. Since every One X I seen and used did not lag on opening the app drawer. Not seeing lag.

I've seen where some people say that it lags a little when they open it for the first time after a reboot or it sitting idle a while. It's happened to me a few times also.

Yeah doing these kind of posts will get you just yelled at :S so don't but if you want an opinion on what you would like based on what you want try the Nocturnal MergeX. Though still customisable, Nocturnal is designed to work out of the box with little effort, making it a good choice for those who would rather leave most of the effort to the experts.
So give it a try

Look man, we aren't necessarily getting angry at you alone (well at least I'm not), it's that some of us people have been around these forums for a long time, and you have no idea how many times this question has been asked. It's not just you, a lot of people do it. It just drives some of us more experienced members crazy to see the same question over and over again, that it brings a little anger out of us.
To answer your question, to start things off it's a matter of if you prefer AOSP or Sense.

Im not new to these forums i have been around since the og droid was out. just not on this account.
I understand how people are, but they have no reason to even reply if they are tired of helping and just want to give me one off **** answers.
Simple as that. People need to change.
But thanks for your answer, i still need to know exactly if its arm7 or arm6.
