Just a min, update failed...I think cause launcher pro was the default home...trying again damn it.
Someone post a odin copy.
?
Let the BRICKING begin!
Would love an ODIN of this ROM... looking forward to it!
Installed Kies... Update process starts but Kies crashes. Anyone else have this issue? I'm currently trying to unroot to see if that makes a difference.
Edit: Exact issue is: MSC.Thunder.FirmwareUpdate has stopped working.
Does it regardless if I choose to backup or not the contacts and data.
Edit 2: Unroot changes nothing.
Edit 3: Doing a factory reset on the device doesn't help either. WTF?
connected to Kies - message "This device will be supported soon"

Get it here
Wonder if it'll be 2.2.1...
Ok so I just got back from writing an exam and will try to reinstall Kies. I tried 2 times to update through my computer this morning and once on my wife's PC (She has a Captivate as well)
All 3 attempts it says that Its downloaded the update but then it fails when it tries to install. Now remember I've not rooted or anything, so i think that there might be a newer version of kies or something...going to look now.
But anyways it tries to update it says a bunch of stuff like: You phone Jsomething1 and the update is supposed to be Jsomething2...I dont get it.
Remember I dont hack or mod phones in the slightest, so I have no clue what this J1 (mine) and the update of j2 is...?
The update is big though, takes a few minutes to download and I have a 16mps download speed...
Downloading this version of Kies and will try again:

I'm with Rogers with an AT&T Captivate (Rooted and Cognition 2.3b6). Will I be able to update my device to it? I much prefer the Rogers software than AT&T's. I don't care if I have to use Odin or erase everything.

Did you put your phone in Recovery mode like the first pop up is asking ? (Unplug usb cable from phone (not the computer), power off the phone, Hold vol up/down button and plug usb cable. You should now be in download mode (black/yellow screen with a shovelling droid)

Stock ROM from Rogers
No, not recovery mode.
PC runs W7-32 for what it's worth.
In the meantime, I did some research on the error I mentioned above.
It appears it's a very common issue with KIES.
There are a few workarounds.
So far, I tried the "SIM-out" method and it doesn't work for me.
Next, I'm trying the regedit method.
Will report on results.
@silvertag: your upgrade worked fine or you haven't tried yet?

Nowhere you have to check Kies server to know it's been released. There is still no confirmation from Rogers last i checked.

Yes it worked fine you HAVE to put the phone in download mode before you start downloading the update or it will fail at the upgrade part.
Ok I have the LG-P999dwp version, and was in unable to do the update through the lg updater. Was told that i have latest version. I am also running win7 ultimate and the KDZ program would always crash, so i found a work around.
I downloaded the LG kdz program and the V21_00.Kdz file You can get them from here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179750 here are pics to help you do this on a windows 7 ultimate and should work for any version of win 7.
The pictures show you what to do.
1: open the KDZ program ( follow the instructions in the read me )
then keep the cdma and DIAG alone and choose the browse and click on the V21E_00.KDZ file.
Sorry if this has been posted but i searched and could not find anything on how to do this. I was working out a few ways to do this on win 7 without installing win xp
2:Click on read phone information at the bottom of the program.
3:Click on Upgrade Start
4:Change country to different country and change Language to english
5:click ok and this opens up the LG updater and will push the update of GB to your phone on windows 7 machine and for phone with LG-P999dwp model # (aka refurb)
thank you soo much!
Works!!! Just follow the steps exactly. My wife has a p999dwp and I have a p999dw. Ive been trying to get Gingerbread on hers for two days now (the official way). I can now find one complaint about the update, I love it. I haven't used Bluetooth yet though. Thanks so much.
Thanks... Worked perfectly....
Just in case anyone wants to know .... I put my phone back to stock and unrooted before I did the update process.... Everything went smooth, update process took about 10 minutes.. Thanks again Bullseye....
I can't get into S/W Update mode now to flash ClockworkMod ???
EDIT: Never mind...had to try it a bunch of times (volume down and plugging in) before it worked
see my only problem is everytime i try to install the lg updater tool it stops quarter of the way and doesnt move, i have a windows 7
how did u guys get the update tool to install, i run it as administrator and it starts but then stalls quarter of the way? and it told me i had to install the tool , but then i just tryed launching the update and it started the process, of course i didnt try with the phone plugged in, what do u guys think
It doesn't even want to read my phone info....it gives me Get Chiptype Error. Tried with Debug mode too-still nothing. It keeps freezing on me....I am running Win7 Ultimate 64bit.
Anyone else having the same issues. I have all the drivers installed.
you have to be in stock 2.2 froyo doesnt matter if youre rooted or not, and stock recovery, and run the tool while booted into froyo with usb debugging on .. and i dont know but i had my sd card mounted
and by the way if this worked for you THANK the freaking OP because he figured it out and you couldnt he's awesome, love you man xD

yes sir , for sure so sincest your talking about the lg update tool ur telling me i have to install it with the phone actually plugged in?
doesnt really matter, i had it unplugged till the window like the screenshot came up, try reinstalling the 3.x.x drivers from LG theres a thread somewhere and then plug your device in a different usb porn and wait for it all to install
It doesn't work for me guys. Tried reading the phone info as advised-it can't complete the operation. I get the stupid error and nothing happens. Don't know how to go around that error. Tried running the R&D tool in compatabilty mode and still got the same error.

Thanks for testing it out for everyone! Sorry that your phone got relocked lol.
the ability to deply XML files through the exploit is only stopped with the samsung firmware update, not the initial OS update, so yes you can do it
what tango does do is phone home to turn off your dev lock, you will need to have that disabled before you connect it up to the net

the update is actually very useful and is worth getting, all you need to do is firstly make sure you have a backup of your OS, then ensure that dev/interop unlock works, debranding, dev relock fix etc, all those wee xml updates are applied, then you can apply the update, that will give you the benefits of the newer firmware and keep the device unlocked
you can then revert to you old backup when you need to next apply an OS update, reapply the xml unlocks, make a new backup in its updated UNLOCKED state, the apply the firmware update again.
Thanks for the info guys. I'm fairly new to WP7, so I have no idea how to back anything up. I probably won't try updating unless someone has a step by step guide up. I'd rather not accidentally get stuck locked.
If you update through Zune, a backup is automatically created. You don't have to do anything at all, except install the update using the "primary" computer that the phone is synced with. You may want to save your old backup first, though, if you've updated your phone previously; got to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in Windows Explorer and rename the "Windows Phone Update" folder so it doesn't get overwritten.
UPDATE:
I managed to fix it by first running the ACDU fix and then installing the European RUU over it! It even updates now!!
ACDU.exe (click the button on the right to download)
Released RUUs for HTC 8X (make sure to get one that corresponds to your device!)
KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS HAS WORKED FOR ME AND MY SECURITY UNLOCKED DEVICE,
THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL WORK FOR YOU
IF YOU BRICK YOUR DEVICE, IT'S ON YOU.
Steps:
Put your device in the bootloader screen by powering it off, and then turning it back on while holding the vol up + vol down buttons simultaneously.
Connect the device to your computer and let Windows locate and install the driver needed. Wait until the driver is fully installed and/or you can see the word USB written on the bootloader screen.
Run the ACDU.exe file and let it do its job (This supposedly unbrands your phone!). It should restart a couple of times showing a green screen and then eventually go into the bootloader menu. It might say something like "UEFI for Key Provision ONLY" in red letters, ignore that.
Run the RUU you've downloaded and if everything goes as planned it should flash correctly. If not, make sure you've downloaded the correct RUU for your device and that it's not corrupted.
Enjoy your (unbricked and) updatable security unlocked device.
I hope this helps!!

Hello,
I have an HTC 8X that appears to be security unlocked and therefore could not receive updates.
In my infinite wisdom, I decided to try to flash the European RUU that has been released in the internet, hoping it would allow me to update the phone further. I did not proceed unprepared and I did indeed check that the phone was European (it initially had the OS version: 2.00.401.03) so it looked as if everything matched.
However, after starting the update, RUU flashed some UEFI related files and then the phone restarted. It started up and resumed the main firmware flashing process, stopping at the 1% mark and restarting back the bootloader.
The error code reported by RUU is the following:
Error [340]: ENCSS_VERIFY_ERROR
SSD Error, please flash subsystem does not encrypted image
The error message is kinda incoherent and I can't find anything about it (except in a thread in XDA, where someone states that this might be because I need an American firmware?), what's worse is that I'm left with a soft-bricked device that I can do nothing with since it can only boot to the bootloader.
The device is unlocked, unbranded and security unlocked (CID: 11111111), yet I'm still stuck.
If I try to flash only the UEFI stuff (by removing the RUU .nbh from the directory), the device is then able to boot to the HTC logo and get into the dual gear screen, where it gets stuck. The hard reset option does not seem to work at all, the phone restarts at the HTC logo if I keep the vol down button pressed. Strangely, I can get into the lightning screen but I dunno what that might do.
Did I mention that the device cannot shutdown? Yeah... It only restarts...
Does anyone know any way to fix this? Or why this might be occuring?

I've managed to fix it and I've included the solution in my first post. I hope this helps.
This just skips the CID check.
You can also change the CID by command to like HTC__001 and get the OTA's and be able to install RUU's the normal way.

Ah, that's unfortunate. I don't know of a way to bypass the version check. =/ I don't understand why they're making things so difficult for end users. If you're flashing a full ROM, then you don't care what the previous one was... The only thing I can think of is that maybe on each update they blow a fuse so that you can't go back, like on the Xbox360

Well, unless we can find a way to bypass the OS version check set by HTC (or MS?), I guess you're stuck. =(
I was thinking of updating to 8.1 but after the whole ordeal above, I said "**** it, I'll get it when it's updatable! I'm not taking the change of bricking it again.."

I don't have the ACDU file but I was able to unlock my phone using the ACDU_UEFI_PROV_KEY.nbh file.
1. Download ACDU_UEFI_PROV_KEY https://mega.co.nz/#!UlMS1CyQ!rX-5-U6mmBHncVw6etFYeuSuV-OLX1De-jgkgEGf6FU
2. Put the ACDU file in the same directory as the ROMUpdateUtility (move the other .nbh files to another folder)
3. Run ROMUpdateUtility.exe
4. Phone should flash and unlock
5. Delete the ACDU_UEFI_PROV_KEY file
6. Move the UEFI_signed.nbh and RUU_signed.nbh files back
7. Run ROMUpdateUtility.exe again to flash ROM
Can someone upload ACDU.exe fix file again??
please !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am well aware of that. Do you guys think we will ever be able to install W10 on our phones. Contacted HTC support and they said that the 8X will not be compatible with W10 because of some hardware limitations, but they were not willing to tell specifics. What are the chances that we will be able to still install W10 by unofficial means?

The fact is that the update was sent to ALL HTC 8X in the world. Mine installed the update during the night without my consent.
Microsoft will probably blame Skynet for trying to terminate all and each 8x there is.
Well...Mine is broken now. I'll be waiting for official fixes.

My HTC 8x routine now:
1- Turn On.
2- Show message about the unsuccessful update.
3- Play the alarm (set to play daily at 7 am)
4- Turn Off.
5- GoToAndPlay(1) hahahahahahahha
Spent hours to restore some other rom, only got "INVALID VENDER ID" (sic) by the ROMUpdateUtility. My phone completed the update, seems to work fine, just reboots randomly after a couple of minutes. Had to setup wifi after a hard reset, otherwise apps were missing, including the Settings app. And the letters are tiny. This is sad and hilarious. Also, camera is gonsky.

Where did you get the ROMUpdateUtility (and a suitable ROM) from?

I think you misunderstood me, no roms worked. There are many on the internet, even here on this forum. There seems to be an id in the phone and it does not match with the package.
Tried these with my t-mobile branded EU phone, all invalid.

Also talked with HTC live support, they have no idea of course.
Windows Phone Recovery Tool detects the phone, but can't offer any ROM.
terible

Those links are all offline -> 404 error
What about this topic the procedure should be similar to flash http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2137556

My phone does not want to recognize the image files on a pen drive when I hold the cam button. It just boots Windows normally.
EDIT: Managed to buy an y-cable and the rom flashed from the pen drive! Back to 8.1 again.
