Looking for a Rogers RUU

I'm pretty sure I bricked my rogers HTC one X.
Where can I find a Rogers RUU?
I can see a lot of AT&T ones, but not a Rogers one.
Is there one around I can snag?

There's a link posted online. I restored mine last weekend.

are you using vm?

Not sure why you mean by vm but I did get it working put the phone in fastboot after a wall charge. I didn't think you needed to be in fastboot to use ARU
Thanks for all the help now bootloader says "relocked" lol
Completely back to stock ruu

I was unable to find an EXE, but did find the Rogers ZIP file.
Thanks to PeteHTC I used the file that you guys downloaded and followed this process, worked like a charm...

Hi everyone,
I'm very new to the unlocking world and I couldn't have a worse start. In fact I have done something really stupid, I have installed a AT&T firmware, the latest, 1.85 on my Rogers HTC One X and even though the phone is working relatively well, I don't have my data plan, I guess because of the firmware.
I have tried to install a RUU, shown in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658929 but half way it says it can't update this ROM, saying this ROM isn't for this phone. It probably because my AT&T firmware.
Is there a way I could install a Rogers Firware back on my HTC One X?
Thanks a lot for your precious help, very appreciated.

I've never been able to get the rogers ruu to work either. my advice... If your unlocked... fastboot flash a custom recovery (twrp) and flash king cobra 1.2 rom found in our dev section.
your data issue is 99.9% of the time a missing apn.

Hi ptesmoke,
What do you mean by "Unlocked" are you talking about the bootloader? If yes then I'm not but it won't be aproblem I have unlocked the bootloader a couple of times but for this Rogers RUU it says I need to have the bootloader Locked.
As I said, I'm very new to this world when you tell to fastboot a cutom recovery (twrp) are you talking about something like ClockworkMod Recovery? Is (TWRP) a recovery tool too? I have installed ClockworkMod Recovery into my phone.
Could you please post the link for the king cobra 1.2 file, is there a thread that explain how to flash the ROM?
Thank you very much ptesmoke, very appreciated you help

Before I start, all credit goes to JSLEnterprises. This is his method.:good:
I have a always working method, but requires the following:
1. Either having a Rogers Device, or have Supercid (no area limitations)
2. Locked bootloader (relocked is fine)
3. Drivers that can run fastboot USB (if you can unlock your bootloader, this is not a problem)
The way I got Rogers RUU to work is as follows:
1. open the AT&T RUU .exe
2. after the first window pops out (takes a while cause it need to decompress things), don't continue. Look for C:\Users\(your user name)\AppData (often hidden, change your "folder and search settings" in Organization)\local\Temp. In the Temp folder, search for rom.zip (you don't want to go over every f**king sub-folder, right?)
3. Rename the Rogers RUU zip into rom.zip and replace the rom.zip in Temp folder
4. start your One X into fastboot, connect it to the PC, and it should show "fastboot USB"
5. continue your steps in the AT&T RUU program.
Since you have replaced the AT&T ruu rom with rogers, rogers will be flashed.
Again, all credit goes to JSLEnterprises.

You know what? this might be caused by two things.
1. At&t firmware
2. RUU don't usually downgrade stuff....you can only downgrade firmware with RUU when you are in fastboot usb
Get Supercid (I believe there's a one click tool for it...not sure if it works on every firmware though...use the search tool), flash through fastboot usb, and you will be fine.
By the way, instead of using the tool in the link you have (which I think is a stripped down version of RUU.exe), run the original AT&T RUU, and replace the rom.zip in temp (look above)...this works better for me than the stripped down version.

Hi xhao1108,
Thank you very much for your reply.
Actually I haven't flashed an AT&T with a Rogers ROM, it was the opposite. I have a Rogers phone that I have flashed with an AT&T (1.85) ROM and even though the phone works, I can receive and make calls, I don't have access to the data.
The Supercid is to root the phone? I've tried prior to flash my phone and I was able to root it, however with the new firmware I can't find a solution that works.
As for the method you propose, I've tried it but I can't find the rom.zip on my Temp folder, I have changed the folder and search options but no luck.
The problem is that I can't find a RUU from rogers, I have tried with this one on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658929 but half way it says the rom isn't for this device.
I'm quite stuck right now because I can't find a RUU from Rogers, I cant find a proper way to root and I can't even reboot on Recovery. I have installed recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-evita-modaco and the process goes well, no error message, so I can't even boot on recovery and flash with the zip file.
Once again, thank you for your time and thank you everyone for the precious help.

ppl are telling you to do too many different things.
If you've unlocked before... and yes bootloader, unlock it again.
boot into bootloader once unlocked and fastboot flash TWRP recovery, you can find the thread in the dev section.
Once that's flashed reboot into recovery by completely turning off the phone and powering up with vol down and power. select recovery.
find the menu to mount usb storage device. hook up to pc.
download king cobra 1.2 or any other custom rom you'd like to try, and follow Instructions in the roms thread (usually factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache then flash rom)
once that's done reboot system.
WINNING
alternatively you could just add the rogers apn info in the rom you have on there now... then your data would work. But I'd recommend kingcobra, works stellar on rogers.
If your stuck pm me..and ill give u my gtalk info so we can txt.
edit; I'd link you to everything but it's 11pm here and I'm mobile...

ptesmoke, you are definitely the man you are my hero and my saver
It worked perfectly, I had installed ClockworkMod recovery and I don't know for which reason I wasn't being able to go on recovery, with TWRP recovery it worked like a charm and I now have my data back.
Once again, a thousand thanks for your precious help. If I can do anything for you don't hesitate, if I can help I'm here.

OK,
I did something really stupid. I was able to flash King Cobra 1.2 and my phone was working just fine but then after I wanted to install Sick Sense but it asked to do a reset factory and wipe system in recovery mode which I did. However, after I've wiped the system I don't have the rom on my sdcard anymore, actually it seems I have only the folder structure but no files in it.
I thought the wipe system would erase my rom on my SDCARD, how I don't know how to put the rom back to be able to flash the rom, when I plug the USB cable it asks me to Format, which I don't do of course but I can't see my phone on the explorer.
Is there a way to push the rom file into the phone other than via the windows explorer?
Thanks for your help.

flash addict already? lol
you should be able to go into twrp recovery, mounts, mount usb storage.
plug into pc, copy rom onto phone.
unmount usb, go back, wipe, flash, profit?
if when mounting your pc says it needs to format the sdcard... don't do it. do it from recovery. ive never tried formatting my sdcard "essentially its just a folder" yet with recovery but it shouldn't break anything.. you'll just lose everything on it.. sounds like you already have though.

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.

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.

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"

If you can mount then connect to computer and try reinstalling boot image and the rom you were trying to install. Or adb

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

[Q] Need some help/info please (Installing CM10)

I've got an AT&T HTC One, I rooted it and installed TWRP and haven't had the down time to do much else with it, including installing a rom yet.
I don't mind the oem ATT rom but I do need the Hotspot feature to work for my wifi tablet.
I've tried to turn on the hotspot feature with a couple scripts I've found on XDA but none of them seem to work so I've come to the conclusion that I'm going to have to change rom to be able to use the hotspot so this morning I Downloaded CM10 and placed it on the "SDcard" of my phone. I then tried to install it with TWRP. everything goes well half way through the install and then it hangs up about 60% through, it eventually seems to time out after like 15-20 minutes of not doing anything.
I then reboot it and all I get is an infinite animated CM boot logo.... I let it sit for an hour just to make sure it wasn't just a slow install.
I reinstalled it three times and the outcome was the same each time so I tried to ADB sideload it with the same outcome.
I even went on CM's site and downloaded another copy of CM10 but it made no difference.
I ended up having to reinstall the backup I made prior to starting this so I had my phone as I needed to go run some errands.
Does anyone know why I had the issues I was having with installing CM10?
Something I did wrong? How do I get CM to install?
Thanks

What hboot? You may have to flash boot image separately in adb or s-off.

On 1.14 the boot image needs to be flashed separately. Flash from fastboot..
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
The boot image is inside the Rom.zip your flashing. Keep a copy of the Rom on pc and extract files with winzip or whatever you like to use. But boot.img in adb folder and type the command, reboot and it should boot.
S-off can be done but only on a sense based Rom like viperXL.
Also read the stickies... They are there for a reason..

This is not true. I s-off'd with cm10. Though you need to enable ADB root in settings for it to work.

Make sure you're using the cm 10 for one xl (evita) and not the one x.

I'll check out the links, thanks.
I can see allot has changed since December when I last messed with the phone. Back in December Clockwork recovery wasn't supported on the ATT version of the HOX. I see it now is in a touch version.

apparently I am doing something wrong as I keep getting the same indefinite CM boot logo and can't get past it. It appears I do not fully understand the process to side load the rom.
With that said, I restored it from a backup and I guess I'll just wait until I can confidently install a rom. This phone is so much different then my previous phones and tabs in regards to how it was unlocked and the install of different roms. I didn't have any problem figuring those out but this one has more steps involved which is aiding to my confusion. Maybe I'll find a step by step for my Hboot that I can follow, in the meantime I'll just keep having to look for free wifi for my tablet while I'm out and about.
You'd think there would be an easier way to enable the wifi hotspot on the phone.... LoL
Thanks for the info guys.....truly appreciated.

Ugh am I bricked?

I've been flashing custom roms to my asus transformer for a couple years now so I'm fairly accustomed to the process. Now that my warranty has expired on my one s I decided to go custom to try and get a bit more battery life and performance from my phone.
steps I took:
unlocked bootloader successfully
installed twrp successfully
installed su and rooted successfully
changed to supercid successfully
S-off unsuccessful. I wasnt paying as much attention as I should have and for whatever reason I thought I had s-off
flashed maximushd rom
then attempted to flash the kernel for maximus obviously didnt work because I had s-on
then I was stuck at the point where my phone was basically a black screen and all I could do is get the buttons on the bottom of the screen to flash. Eventually I made it into the bootloader, twrp was gone or corrupted. Managed to reinstall twrp from fastboot and get it working.
within twrp I was able to push a rom into the internal sd and flash it (cant remember which one atm). phone restarted and was then stuck in a 30ish second bootloop of the htc quietly brilliant screen. tried a couple other roms which wouldnt flash. at this point I went home (i dont have a computer at my house, just android based tablet and xbmc box).
At home I got the idea the roms i'm trying to flash might not be compatible with hboot 2.15. I downloaded and tried older roms that would match my hboot of 2.15. Varying success on these but still unable to boot to phone os.
Here is what ive tried and what results i had with them:
zenrom_v1.05_2.31RUUbased.zip = Wont flash just gives failed message
Toasted_marshmellow-ville.zip = This one flashed, reboot phone goes past htc screen to the custom boot.img then endlessly replays the .gif (highly disaapointed at this point)
mdob_ville_bm_deodex_2.40.zip = phone stays off and can only get lights to flash if i hold power
Blackout_ics_sense_plus_RC2.zip = phone hangs on white htc screen
Anyone got any idea where I can go from here? Am i hooped or am I just missing something obvious?

Ended up bringing my phone to a shop which fixed it and installed a new power button as my old one was shot for $65. One thing he did which pissed me off though is install cm 10.1 instead of maximushd like i asked him. not that big of a deal but my signal is horrible now. with stock I used to get 2-3 bars in my rom now im lucky to get 1, and infront of my house where i constantly had full sigal i'm lucky to get 2 or 3 with drops of no signal and dropped calls. Is this because of the rom or the radio? Tried the ota update to 10.2 which freezes the phone on startup, then had to go back and get him to reflash the rom again. its a 10min walk each way and I'm tired of walking back and forth in the rain!
