Unroot HTC One S, just to be sure

Hello,
i have to unroot my girlfriends htc one s, because we need the warrenty of the divice.
at the moment there is the newest trick droid installed.
so how to get back to stock? ive done this on my one x before so i know i have to:
install stock recovery
relock bootloader
run ruu
BUT
i had huge problems finding the right ruu for the stock recovery flashed.
could i flash the stock recovery from PaulOBrien thread and then flash he UK vodafone ruu? or will be some mismatch like on my one x ? i would need the vodafone uk ruu, because it was a vodafone device.
is it a MUST that the recovery version matches thes ruu version? at my one x it kind of happend. is there any chance to see what version the stock recovery of PaulOBrien have?
greetings and thanks alot

Go to super su ..... settings scroll to bottom and click full unroot

but this wont give me the stock rom, does it?
or could i run the RUU then?

Phone will still say relocked in bootloader no matter what you do I believe.

thats ok relocked just mean it was unlocked, but nothing it was ever a custom rom on it
but i got the solution in another forum
just relock bootloader, enable usb debug und go to the ruu
greetings

I think it does go to stock rom

Your warranty might not come back, since you have rooted it you might be declined.

[Q] Root on One XL?

Hello,
I am running One XL 4.0.3, the NON-ROGERS/AT&T VERSION, its the Asia version, i just received that i can upgrade to 4.0.4, but idk that if i can still get rooted if i upgraded to 4.0.4(or later on 4.1).
P.S.: I don't want to go for the official Bootloader Unlock.
Thanks.

Depends what version of 4.0.3 you're running...
Go to Settings, About, Software Info, More, Build number.

i would just do htcdev unlock, i assume u know what you are doing and i assume htc will honor anything that isnt from an idiot flashing the wrong thing. so just do an htcdev unlock.

I don't want to lose my warranty... (in case of any screen damage, etc)
I have ROOTED, running of 4.0.3, but i know that i will lose my root when i upgrade to 4.0.4, and i am wondering if i still can root my phone on 4.0.4(without htcdev.com)

Yes there is a way although we need to know your exact software version (1.73,1.85,1.93). If you have the right version somewhere in the development section there is a method.

Ok
I have been rooted on 1.77.708.3
Now, I've updated to 1.89.708.9, I lost my root permission, what should I do?
I am running Android 4.0.3, 16GB version of HTC One XL.

Any one have solutions?

Flash the boot.IMG first through fast boot then flash the ROM.
Also rooting will void your warranty. Once the phone is unlocked it will be "tampered"

one x wont accept updates.

I went to update my htc one x, and it says server unavailable and im on 4.0.3. Im stuck...

You are almost certainly better off by not doing any OTA updates from at&t.

If OP has any desire to root and flash custom ROMs, I agree. Just root and unlock bootloader now. Then update to whatever stock rooted or custom ROM you like.
If OP wants to stay stock, then get the RUU from the HTC website. RUU will wipe the phone, but its a cleaner install than OTA, and less likely to cause problems anyway.

I had the same problem. Download the rom from HTC .com connect to pc and install rom.

Htc one x help

Hello,
My HTC One X is running android 4.0.3. I notice that Jelly Bean came out today and I never got the OTA for the 4.0.4. When I go to AT&T Sfotware Update, and it searches and goes back to the Check for Updates button. Is there any way I can update it without doing a factory reset?
Thanks for your help!

Don't update, supercid + ota = brick
P.S. Why would you want the att update? It will still be crappies than a custom rom.
Also, jelly bean is 4.1+

No, I'm saying the I am still on 4.0.3. I never got the 4.0.4 update. Any help would be nice. Thanks.

Do the 2.20 ruu then do the ota

So the only way to get 4.0.4 is through computer, right?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

If it's not shwoing up on your phone then yes you have to manually do it..but I suggest you root and flash the stock rooted ota but if not I'd be happy to help you ruu to 2.20

I really need some help with HTC One XL

I bought this phone outright, and I don't like the Telstra network so I put an Optus SIM in. Which works just fine, however I now have an issue which may or may not be related. I have unlocked my bootloader, and have obtained root. I cannot get s-off however, tried all the methods in this forum. And when I try to install a new Rom, such as cm10 and all nightly versions, venom viper, and all other Roms I have tried I cannot get passed the start up logo (or I just get a pure black screen). Yes I have waited and waited for extended periods of time but it won't load. No I'm not new to rooted phones, and have followed all insructions properly. Pls help me, I really hate all the Telstra bloatware on my phone.

you have to fastboot flash the boot.img when you are s-on

Only problem is I used that stupid one xl one click toolbox for my root. Which has completely stuffed me up.I should have done it the hard way like I did with my incredible s. I just got lazy. Don't suppose you know how to get s-off, without the one click fixes. Unfortunately they arnt working on this phone to acheive s-off

Not necessarily. It depends on your hboot version I believe.
I've never had to flash the boot image and I haven't done s-off.
@OP - did you need to s-off for any specific reason? You don't need to do this to flash a custom ROM. It's not required unless you want to reove the tampered text from the boot loader.

It makes life easier to have s-off. Besides I have issues with not having full access to something I have bought outright....lol

I s-off'd my HOXL because it makes it much safer from my own boneheaded mistakes. If I had done something silly like flashing the OTA RUU then I wouldn't be completely screwed.
