HTC 8X Telstra - Stock ROM??? - Windows Phone 8x by HTC

Hi there
I recently got this fom from Telstra in Australia, and was just wondering if there was a way to flash it back to a stock HTC rom? Is windows phone like the iPhone in that the updates come from Apple directly? Or do they have to be carrier approved? Can't seem to find the answer anywhere.
The reason I want to flash it back to stock and not a Telstra rom is so I can get the updates directly from HTC.
Any ideas??
Cheers

Hey, there are no custom WP8 ROMs! WP8 is really not the same as iOS. All WP8 ROMs are stock because it is very fresh and new OS, currently noone can cook and flash custom ROM. You are running stock ROM. Or maybe 8X isn't your device??? I have no idea why your updates come from Apple... Maybe update is for any Apple's app in your phone?.. Or maybe you have iPhone... I don't know.

I'm pretty sure that updates are carrier specific. Don't quote me on that though. I am new to Windows Phones. If you are feeling froggy you can try this. It doesn't work on my Verizon 8X though.

[Q] T-Mo UK RUU - Getting back to stock...

Hi Guys,
I have searched high and low for the UK T-Mobile RUU for the Sensation. I am having issues with the camera on my phone and after trying 3 or 4 roms so I want the option to easily get back to stock, but I cannot find the T-Mo RUU anywhere.
I thought I found a compatible one in the RUU thread but it kept saying it could not detect my phone so I gave up in the end.
I suppose in short if there isn’t a leaked T-Mo UK RUU available what would be the easiest way to get back to stock, and be able to receive OTA updates etc?
Many thanks - and im sorry I know this must have been asked before, and I did search before asking.

Ahh that's great, I wasn't sure if it had to be the exact one or not.
many thanks for the help

[Q] HTC One X Jelly Bean OTA

I live in Australia and I use Virgin Mobile's One X. My CID is HTC_023, so I assume that my phone is unbranded. I am currently running a European stock ROM. Does this mean that I will receive the Jelly Bean update when the European handsets get it or should I wait until the Virgin Mobile Australia handsets get it?
I am a noob at this stuff so please help me out.

Since you're unbranded, you'll get it whenever the ota is released for your phone. No need to worry about being on a carrier or not :thumbup:

Not another thread about the OTA for gods sake. I think everyone has discussed this to such a point that now there is nothing left to discuss. Please read the existing threads before making another one. Cheers

I'm with Virgin as well in Australia. I contacted Virgin once when Sense 4.1 came out to ask when the update would come out and they said that they had no plans to do an update. Then when Jelly Bean was released, i contacted them again via email to ask when they were planning to at least update the One X to Sense 4.1 or hopefully Jelly Bean. Their reply the second time was pretty much the same, they said that they're not planning to update the One X and they referred me to ask HTC's support for more information. In asking the above both times, i mentioned how Optus and Vodafone users had both received updates to at least Sense 4.1 and how Virgin uses Optus' networks, so clearly it's Virgin's fault that their users haven't received the update since Optus users have been running it just fine for a while.
So then i went to HTC Australia's support. I had a live web chat with one of their customer service reps and i asked him if it was possible for me to get any kind of update since Virgin isn't planning to do any updates. He asked for my IMEI and then told me that my phone is a modified Vodafone handset that is unlocked. He then told me that if i was going to get any update on my phone, it would come from Vodafone.
SidDev, i'd recommend for you to go to here and talk to HTC and see if you're in the same boat that i'm in. Hopefully you are, which would mean that you WILL get an update eventually from Vodafone. I must say though, i've been quite disappointed with Virgin's service and their responses to this issue.
Btw if you found this post useful, please hit the thanks button .
Curious, what chip set you guys have?
JB is not out for the XL S4, yet this is the XL forum.
You might get more help in the X forums unless I misunderstood something here.

The only ROM I know if is a European one that you'll find in the dev section which as you rightly pointed out, is no good for our devices. I have not seen any news yet on a stock USA ROM. I think many of us here with ATT, Bell, Rogers, etc would like to get our hands on it but it just does not exist as of now. Considering how popular the 8X is supposed to be, it's surprising but unfortunately the reality.
Keep your fingers crossed. Maybe something soon...
I want to join this request. I have c625b (TELSTRA, Australia, pm233...).

There are some unbranded Asian ROMS that have leaked as well. Perhaps those will work better? They are over on the Dark Forces Team forums.

+1 for this - have a verizon one which I'm using on t-mobile
+1. At&t Engineering unit here. Would like to go back to stock
I would love the stock TMOUS Rom v1532.20.20010.531 or later! This ROM enables Wi-Fi Calling for us T-mobile customers!
Anyone here could help us?
I Have an HTC 8X, Model C625a. I want to know if is posible to flash it, beocuse i am thinking about release it, so i can install applications that are not from the windows online store. I could try by the Microsoft way (Registering it as a Developer/Development Phone using a Windows Live ID) or by the other way, using an application to Jail Break it.
If is the case, and the Jailbreaker Application breakes the Windows Phone System, i want to know what posibilities do i have of repair it. Could I do a hard reset to the phone to restore the original system? or Do i Have an other way to install applications.
The Carrier is Rogers Canada, but is unlocked working with Cubacel
Sorry if the message has some spell errors, I am cuban and I am learning english now
AT&T 8X, looking for HTC stock rom
Hello,
I'm also looking to unbrand my ATT HTX 8X, the model is PM23300. I couldn't find any rom for it. I'm using the phone in Canada, so i need a north american rom.
Thank you for helping!
Dear friends. I believe there's a lot of people having STUCK IN GEARS problems with their phones. Is it possible for a good soul to dump the stock rom so we can play with and try to fix our phones???

Simple questions about flashing ROMS and whatnot for the S7

So i got a Galaxy s7 from rogers here in canada. My model is SM-G930W8. I'm wondering how/what are the effects of flashing ROM on this device? Rogers is super slow with their updates, im still on their April update, and it's in fact the only update they ever put out. So if i flash a stock rom onto this phone, will i get the updates directly from samsung? How does this all work? Also if yall are too lazy to answer can you link me to like a good Q&A thread that would answer my question?

Well, I'm no expert in that area since in my country there aren't any carrier locked s7 devices. But I'm guessing that flashing a different stock rom might not be a good idea because you might lose some features or in the worst case scenario, your phone might not boot up at all. So, if I were you I would root my phone, search for a custom rom that's as close to the stock one and which can be flashed on Canadian models.

If you flash a rom from the dev section you won't get any updates since the phone will be rooted, you'll have to rely on newer roms from the dev section. You'll also lose volte/wifi calling from rogers.
Now if you flash a stock telus rom and have a rogers sim i doubt you'll get updates either but who knows, only rogers is holding up the update, every other carrier already pushed out the july update.
