Now that we have an unlocked bootloader and working recovery, has anyone successfully ported any of the roms from the international htc one x (tegra 3)? Feel free to post which rom you used and how it worked out for you.
DO NOT TRY AND FLASH THE BOOT.IMG FROM THE INTERNATIONAL HTC ONE X ROM. MAY RESULT IN SOFTBRICK

So now i have an unlocked bootloader and i have CWM installed. If i were to use a RUU, the clean rom DE, would it remove CWM and put the stock one back on? Or would it leave CWM intact?

When you start calling people names, you are the one that appears immature and childish, no matter how correct you may be.
The problem is, though, you are not correct. Maybe it only appears as a "simple" mistake to you, probably because you don't care or haven't spent enough time in the forums, but for people who frequent XDA then it has become a cumulative nuisance.
Also, when the majority of users responding in the thread you started is either questioning the logic of your statement or placement of the thread then maybe you need to reflect on what you were trying to accomplish and maybe take into consideration how you can achieve better results in the future. Long story short, try to learn from your mistakes.
Okay, so, International One x won't be compatible because of hardware differences, but what about the One S roms? I just tried flashing the CM9 port for the S, and it flashed successfully but upon reboot the screen was just filled with green graphical glitches. Rebooting back into recovery and attempting to restore my backup of the stock system didn't work at all, so RUU for me... but, why wouldn't a One S ROM work? It has 99% of the same hardware... besides the qHD screen. I remember being able to flash a Droid 3 ROM to my bootloader-locked Atrix 2 and it booting up just fine. What's different here?

So i got a little ahead of myself today when i unlock my AT&T One X bootloader. I tried to instal CWR and then Cyan9. Rooted and unlocked fine but i get the feeling CWR is still not compatible with the AT&T One-X bootloader.
So the problem im having is reinstalling the stock RUU and ROM. I found lists and lists of RUUs and tried one the is supposed to work but i have had little success. How can i find the stock RUU for my phone or better yet is there a CWR that i can instal to get Cyan9 running?
Im sorry im sure you guys get idiot questions like this all the time but i have spent hours googling with no luck. Im desperate to use my phone again!
Thanks for you input in advanced

Thank you so much. You dont think CM would work on top of this CWM? Or am i missing a whole nother aspect here?
Frankly, I'm not entirely sure what all is involved in porting CM9 from one platform to another, but I would suspect we'll have to wait for HTC to release the source to pull some of the drivers, etc before we make much progress. I would expect somebody to have started a thread on it in the development section if anybody were actively working on it that the moment.
Lol there is no cyanogen mod for this device yet. If there was, and it would've been in the development section. You shouldve known better not to flash the file if it isn't for this device.
You deserve the brick..
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I'm guessing you flashed the unofficial CM9 build for the international One X? That phone has a completely different CPU and SoC (Tegra 3) from the AT&T version (Snapdragon S4) and ROMs are not compatible between the 2.
Either that or you flashed the ROM from some random, completely different phone. In either case, don't flash ROMs for other phones. It won't work, and its a good way to brick your phone.
Sounds like you are pretty correct when you said you've gotten a little ahead of yourself. Don't Google around and install things on your phone unless you are very comfortable with what you are doing. If you are a noob, your best bet is to stick to the Development subforum for your particular device here on XDA.
I've posted an index thread in Development, and it is your friend. Its a sticky at the top of the Development subforum, and you should always read the threads stickied to the top of the forums. I've kept it updated with the latest ROMs that will work on your phone. It also links the appropriate RUUs, as well as other tools.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237
Also, even flashing the correct RUU will not work, unless you relock the bootloader.

Was that necessary? We were all noobs once
Anyway i think he got confused with all of the initials... He was saying CWR, Saying cyan9 should work on top of CWR. Hopefully was typo and meant CWM. No wonder you couldn't find any info. Sounds like he thought they were the same or went together. CWM stands for Clockwork Mod, not cyanogen. I may be wrong with this assumption. Anyway..
Well I was using Clockwork Mod. Then I foolishly Installed Clean Rom 4.5 final while using clockwork mod..got a soft brick -:splash screen would not boot...no access to the recovery...could not flash a recovery...but access to boot-loader :-...
Got the bricked sorted out and decided to move to TWRP..That didn't go well at all
Issues found after flash
1: Google contacts would not sync at all...no matter Rom I used
2: My dialer crashed...no matter Rom I used
Moved back to clockwork and all issues was solved
This Is only my observation and It may be different to others

Did it more than once and it didn't happen with cmw and yes a recovery can cause a rom issue
way back in the htc desire days certain rims could not be flash using certain recoveries because it caused issues...some users found that with a certain recovery the rom was more stable than the other
Just beware flashing something with an aroma installer with cwm. Bad mojo.
Lol make your OP clear you have flashed a rom whit a recovery not recommended FOR the rom ...

yes it happened to me too google contacts sync and dialer crash and yes i found that twrp is the culprit of not clearing the data correctly.onle fix i found is switching recovery to cwm,clear the data,switch back to twrp and install a new rom and worked for me.

As I said the soft brick was because I used the wrong recovery..that wasn't the issue..I already sorted that out..
my phone was stock..I rooted then flash TWRP then started flashing roms and I noticed the issue after that..I wasn't asking for help on this thread
all I was doing was letting people know what was happening to me while i was using that recovery..If xda belongs to the guys that never made a mistake while using a phone and don't want no one else to post then i wont..but all I was simply doing was letting people know what brought me to that point

most of us are here because we like tweaking what we have and in doing so some make mistakes and others learn from it..its what XDA is about
Google contacts and dialer being messed up are known issues with CWM. They persist even after flashing other ROMs. It was likely a residual issue from CWM, not TWRP.

So, I'll admit that this is my first android phone and I'll admit that I didn't take a bunch of time to learn anything about what I needed to do before rooting and unlocking and flashing and everything else.
My problem is, I've unlocked my bootloader just fine and I rooted my phone just fine. The problem came when I found Android Revolution HD, from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562603, and wanted it. I didn't understand how to flash a new ROM or anything, but I went ahead and tried. I flashed several different boot images and recoveries so I don't even know where to begin. I flashed recovery-clockwork-5.8.4.0-endeavoru and tried to use the boot.img from the link I posted. Now I can't boot into recovery or restart my phone or even do a factory reset. I'm afraid that I messed everything up to the point where I need a new phone or something. I know I should have spent more time with this before diving into it, I was just excited. Is there anything I can do? I'm sorry if my problem is vague..

first of all, you flashed a ROM and recovery not meant for your phone. Our One X is a snapdragon based phone codenamed evita.
can you get to boot loader anymore?
if so relock it
then install the factory RUU that matches the version you had before, probably 1.85
then spend about 2 or 3 weeks reading the threads in OUR development section before you unlock the bootloader and flash anything else.

This mistake is very easy to make for someone who just bought a phone. I know that the credo at XDA is rtfm but the mods of the respective forums really ought to make the effort to make the distinction more obvious.
HTC and AT&T should have done that.
Seems pretty self explanatory to me.

I know I made the same mistake in my first ROM flashing experience. And I even knew that ROMs for the International One X were incompatible! I just had no idea what "endeavoru" meant.
Since then, I've been keeping track of many HTC One X terms, which I highly recommend the original poster take a peek at.

Revolution HD seems to be a popular ROM for the International One X. Maybe they should explicitly note in the OP that it will likely brick an AT&T One X if flashed (if they don't already!)
This may also be a good thread to take a look at (if you don't feel bad enough already!)
[PSA] FOR THE LOVE OF GOD Please Stop Flashing International One X ROMS On This Phone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1813839
This post is for anyone newly rooted and looking to flash a custom rom.
There is a popular AOKP rom out there named Ice Cold Jelly. From what I have heard, it is a well designed, full-featured rom, but you should be aware that it was created for the quad-core Tegra 3 version of the One X. There is no version of ICJ for the dual-core S4 One X/XL. [Edit: There is now--see below]
What's worse, however, is that attempting to flash ICJ on an S4 One X/XL may permanently brick your phone. This is because the two processors use different partition layouts. What happens when you try to flash ICJ?
absolutelygrim said:
The biggest problem with ICJ is it writes a kernel for a completely different processor to p4, 5, 6 and part of p7.
P4 is one of the most crucial partitions for these phones. It overwrites p4 with what is basically crap. Killing the phone.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
P4 is the extended partition table. When you overwrite that, the CPU has no way to find the OS. So it simply stops and goes into what is known as QHUSB_DLOAD mode.
If you are on 1.85 or earlier firmware, there is a fix for this problem though it's a bit tricky [EDIT: Maybe not--we've got at least one report of a 1.85 phone perma-bricked by ICJ]. If you are on 2.20. however, there is currently no known way to unbrick your phone [Edit: Other than paying for a jtag fix], and there may never be one. You will have created the proverbial paperweight. I have seen at least 10 people do this since root for 2.20 came out. Please don't add to the list.
Most people who run into these problems get them because they rush things and don't research enough beforehand. Still, if this post saves even one person from bricking, it will have served its purpose.
If you're coming to this post too late, here's the WIP thread for the potential fix.
[Update 12/7/12] The dev for ICJ has added asserts to the rom, meaning it will fail to flash on the S4 One X and nothing will happen (unless you've wiped /system first, in which case the asserts won't do anything). However, as there are plenty of older versions floating around on unofficial sites, it should still be avoided like the plague!
[Update 02/11/13] We've now got a dual core version here. So there's now really no excuse if you bricked.

There are warnings all over both forums. The problem is people don't read before they do this, and many of them pick up these roms from random websites and never even come here until they're bricked.

We had a port of a Tegra 3 Rom in this section for a little bit when Sense 4.1 came out. Worked perfectly fine and had no problems with installation.

You can port it. But just changing the updater script would still cause a brick

Honestly just let them brick, they should be more careful.
I have had many android in the past and have never had to reset the phone and lose everything to root.
I have had the Motorola BackFlip, LG Optimus V, HTC Inspire, Droid Razr Maxx, Droid 4 and not one Forced a reset to root why with this phone and will there ever be a all in one tool kit like the Ace Hack Kit from the HTC Inspire that was the far best root and only took 3 minutes to unlock the boatloader,root, S-off, and sim unlock.
Its possible but why do you need that data? Anything you need you can backup to a PC, even apps can be backed up using adb backup
Besides any ROM you flash you will have to wipe before running it
I suggest doing some research on your part to understand the process better, if you are used to one click toolkits then there's a chance of you bricking your phone if you aren't careful.
Everything you need to know can be found here on xda or with a Google search
Also, this is in the wrong section. We have a Q&A section

I have been flashing rom and rooting my androids since 2010 I know that if I'm going to go and flash a rom I have to wipe everything but I prefer to use Titanium Backup to backup your apps plus the data of the apps and It's a lot faster then adb. also just so you know I'm not dumb I do know how to root the phone and everything I just prefer not to wipe my phone since I haven't ever had to in order to root.
Every device is different, and HTC is constantly updating its security schemes to make it harder and harder to root and flash custom ROMs. So you need to forget what you know about past devices, as they no longer apply, and you need to get used to the fact that its going to be more and more complicated moving forward.
Either use adb or cloud methods to backup what data you need, otherwise you just have to suck it up and do the factory reset and start from scratch after you are rooted.

I'd advise you to slow way down and not do anything until you're more familiar with this phone. It's guys like you who've gotten into the most trouble because they barge in here assuming that because they've rooted and unlocked other phones they already know what to do with this one. Then they go blundering around and hard-brick because they assume stuff that worked on their last phone should work on this one. I've seen it happen repeatedly, whether it's trying to use "universal" one-click methods that aren't supported, trying to flash recoveries and roms with ROM Manager (also not supported), or flashing ports of their favorite roms without realizing that they're for the quad-core HOX version.
This phone has some idiosyncrasies that aren't present on other handsets and you can easily perma-brick it if you aren't careful.
This has to be one of the most retarded Op's I've come across in a while.
You don't like the root method, make your own. If you can't, go buy some tissues and cry in the corner. We don't want to hear it:beer:

All the info regarding this phone was available before you made the purchase so complaining about it now is silly
