HTC Jelleybean update and root

Just rooted my One s. I have heard HTC should be releasing JB sometime early Sep from what I heard.
Whenever they do though, will it un-root the phone if downloaded?
I know there is JB rom now, but I was just curious about the HC OTA update.
Thanks.

U cant download HTC updates with a unlocked bootloader you will have to lock it and then do update which will stop your root access ... Who told u that it was coming early September I'm thinking its coming October

The Tmo guy... but guess that was a sales pitch...
Now that I think about it, when HTC does release it, guess the devs will be jumping on that anyway....

Lol T-Mobile is still on 1.84! International is already on 2.31. It will be international first then a few months later because T-Mobile has to add their bloat to it.

The current version number has nothing to do with anything. It was released a while back that T-Mo would leave the One S on 1.84 until JB was released. We just have to wait for HTC to release JB Sense. We really don't have to wait for T-Mo's US release because no one cares (unless you use Wi-Fi calling or want complete stock).

About to purchase HOX from the ATT online store...

What are the chances that the bootloader will be unlockable?
I'm assuming that the HOX I get won't come with the latest OS updates?
Last thing I want is a HOX that can't be unlocked (bootloader).
Thanks guys!

I'd assume new devices from at&t will have the latest unrootable version of the firmware

Crap!
I don't want to be stuck with the bloated stock room.

Go buy it at a store. Open it up and check. V

Just got a One X from my local AT&T Store... 2.20 on all of them (or so I was told). I think it's a bit late to hope to get a 1.85 from the store, but best of luck. Now I just keep my fingers crossed for a root method for 2.20.

firlt athowith
So just to be clear: at the moment, a HOX that comes with 2.20 cannot be rooted to flash custom roms.
Am I right?

that is correct

Well crap.
Now I can't decide what phone to get.
I love the HOX screen but on the other hand, I can root the GS3 instantly and flash an AOSKP rom and get rid of touchwiz.
Wonder how long it will take for 2.20 to be unlocked.
what to do....what to do.

I don't believe it is unrootable. I think we just haven't found a way to do it yet. I may be wrong and if I am then can someone elaborate?

Even if there is 0% chance to root 2.20, there may be exploits in newer versions.
I used to have an HTC aria, which shipped with hboot .57, but (I believe) s-off wasn't discovered until it's hboot was updated to 1.02
Moral of my story: There is almost always a way to get around security measures
But how long will it take? Who knows. I'm sure someone will make a breakthrough eventually

Dude, just get the s3. Going from a rooted phone to a locked down phone sucks balls. I can't wait to see what next year brings for phones, as I can upgrade in July. That being said, the one x is an awesome phone,even without root. Stock 2.20 is more stable than any rooted ROM I have ever run I don't have many complaints other than being locked down at all. I know I contradict my self, but it basically comes down to only one thing. You want root, get a different phone. But you will be missing out on a good phone IMO.

Htc one XL jelly bean

I have a Htc one XL on At&t and I was wondering if I unlocked my phone will I be able to get the update with the International phones?
Sent from my HTC One X

No, you cannot flash international roms. You can however wait to get the jelly bean update for our phone.

I thinks he means if he unlocks the bootloader, later on wants to know if he can relock and revert back to stock and update to jellybean when it comes out for the one xl, and he could. But like ECEXCURSION said do not flash any international roms on your dual core one xl..
Ps why does your sig say htc one x instead of xl?

wrong section !!

Trying to load anything for the international One X will either fail or brick your phone. They are two different phones with the same name.

The AT&T One X/XL is completely different hardware internally than the international version. The fact that JB has rolled out for the international version has no bearing on our version, and it hasn't started rolling out yet.

We already have a Jellybean thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1772429
Redundant thread closed.

[Q] Why Can't I Update My One X to Jelly Bean?

I read on the one s forums that carrier updates are actually pushed out by HTC, not the carrier. It's based on the cid of the phone, not what SIM card you have in it.

Pretty sure you don't get updates with super cid.

[2013/11/04] Update is rolling out! Android 4.2.2 & Sense 5 - Discussion

The Update is rolling out! :laugh:
In Serbia & Croatia and other countries, for free k2ul.
You can follow the happening from here.
Usually HTC is updating free k2ul (with LTE) first. If all is fine, free k2u are next, together or followed by provider k2ul.
After that, cricket & boost get the update.
At least they did this way for the 4.1.2 Jelly Bean update.
Pictures: Look at this post
==================================================
You need to get back stock, if you are rooted and have custom recovery/rom:
S-On, you have to S-off your device and do the S-off guide
S-Off you can do from the beginning like told here.
==================================================
Old Post:
We don't know for sure if it will come, rumors say yes, HTC says nothing.

I hope (and believe) of course this will come, but its not confirmed officially.
And i don't think it will come before august/september. All before would be a real suprise cause even the update for HTC One isn't released officially. Then will follow OneX, OneX+...
But there are rumors that One S maybe don't get it (technical issues). That would be heavy for them.
Other news say, we get Android 4.2.2 without Sense 5:
HTC One X, One X+, Evo 4G LTE and Others Getting Android 4.2.2 and Sense 5 Upgrade
HTC Upgrade List, Who’s Getting Android 4.2.2 and Sense 5?
Here's a video about Android 4.2.2 & Sense 5. Its from HTC One, but features are almost the same (except some things like Zoe or so):
So let's start here a discussion thread about the update to Android 4.2.2 & Sense 5.

They will probably get it eventually via dev / mod roms, have you tried that CM10 rom for the boost one sv over on android forums ? I was thinking about trying the rom only on my phone, I know the kernel wont work as its for boost.

For sure. But it states the end of official lifetime.
Here in germany people always say "don't buy the One SV, buy the One S, cause the SV will get no updates". That news was a little bit funny for me :angel:

No, exactly because the kernel will not boot. But as far as i know, bkcokota is working on CM and i pushed him to simon's thread to have a look.

Guys, anyone has any info about 4.2.2 update for One SV? HTC ditched One S. So wondering if SV has the same fate...

Football is continue claiming that there will be an update.
A german "insider" is sure there will be nothing.
To make it clear: atm we don't know anything for sure!
But related to One S: it was canceled because of their different processors. Qualcomm does no longer support the S3 version. And before they only update the S4 and user are asking "why does he get an update and i not, we have both One S", the have canceled.
But this problem don't exist on our phone!
So let's hope and keep fingers crossed.

There's article on gottabemobile: "HTC One SV Android 4.2 Update Pegged for “Near Future”"

Hope they get it out as it's a superb phone and maybe well get our own proper forum then also :fingers-crossed:

yeah, it's a great phone, i'm surprised that there are only few power users or developers that use it.

Most people go with the flagship phones or the cheaper (Desire X). Most time people complain about resolution, but when you used to 800x480 (like you and i from Desire S times) its not a problem i think.
But all in all i would say the most devs are working on the flagships.

It is clear that our model is not very popular. If by the end of summer does not release update, then it is likely that 4.2.2 will not.

And as i have heard, the HTC One mini will also have the same processor and 1 GB Ram. So also not a big alternative/difference in 4,3" phones. Better screen, but no sd card, so i'm staying with lovable One SV.
But lets come back on topic, please!

The One SV stands in between the One V and One S in terms of specs(hence it's name),and if the One S isnt getting an update,there is a high chance that the One SV won't get one
But we cannot miss the fact that it was launched after the One S so there is some hope for this device
