[Q] RUU Error 170 - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I can't seem to find any similar questions for the One X, so here goes. I'd like to do an RUU but I get an error 170. I'm giving this phone to my sister, is there anyway to restore to original and keep root? And if the RUU does that, how do I get around this error 170? I've installed and uninstalled HTC Sync, installed newest drivers... Dunno what to do now...

Did you relock the bootloader?

Did you reflash the stock recovery

I didn't, do I have to do that? If I do then I may just give it to her not stock... She's having fun with Google Now anyway. But just in case I have to do it, I have to relock, then it will work?

1.09 is the best because you can flash kernels and radios in recovery

I appreciate all the help. Another question. Since I'm on 1.09 would that be the reason its not changing my CID to 11111111.
Your not special just more phones with 2.20 were shipped out recently...but that comes with hboot 1.14 .... Which you have to flash boot IMG seperately...what's your softwares number ....if it's 1.73 there's menu one clicks you can use if it'd 1.85 jusys search for it its very easy to find... Idk if 1.85 works with the 2.20 exploits absolutely grim would know a lot more than me

That shouldn't be a problem as far as I know. As yes, having HBOOT 1.09 means you don't need to extract the boot.img and flash it separately.
Yeah im on 1.85. And all i see is one way to root it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237. Thats a lot of directions. Damn almost wish I had 2.20 now.

Then update and use x factor? Bootloader can be downgraded so it doesn't matter.

Hey, I using AT&T Htc One X , 1.85 build firmware, android version 4.0.3, h-boot is 1.09. I am not able to root my phone using the above method. The CID wont change and it shows an error. Is there any way to fix it?
You're using the wrong root method. There is one specific to 1.85. The link is in the resource roll up at the top of the development forum.

boot into fastboot and run the command
"fastboot getvar cid"
if says CWS__001, and not 11111111, and you haven't previously unlocked your bootloader before. You may not be able to root.
Did you take an OTA or flash a ROM?
I bought with an OTA

OK, what's the cid?
I can't get onto the computer right now so I'll check the cid later, the and by the way, and does downgrading the OS to ICS make it able to root? Because the ones I've seen on the Web are all for ICS....
Oh and ecexcursion I checked both of my root checker apps, and they both said that it isn't rooted

Actually, as IT mentioned, I think I'm wrong about flashing. I believe s-off removes all flashing restrictions. Downgrading is no longer necessary.
It's the fun stuff that will take some time.

What can we expect now that we have s-off? Or rather, what would YOU like to see. I'm curious what the typical One X user wish list would be?
Also, I saw you post in the boot animations thread. Did you get it to work? Which animation did you pick?
i still haven't ran the s-off exploit yet. i also slept over 30 hours and missed the release. i was going to wait to run it until some hacks came out that use s-off but i guess not having to fastboot boot.img is good enough. ill run it in abit seems super easy, looks like basically a hacked up ruu =) i guess that is why it is called facepalm.
I see the ruu contains a radio does it cause any problems with at&t?

Interesting. S-Off means the radio is fully flashable (even for those on hboot 1.14). So I would think you can just flash another radio, if there are any issues.

The ruu doesn't actually install. It would need to run that a few times to fully install it. Basically we are telling the phone we are going to RUU, which in HTC's stupidity, unlocks the emmc partitions to be writable. Then the RUU fails when it finds superCID. So we cancel out of the ruu status, but the emmc partitions are still unlocked, and we turn the security flash off with soffbin3. And ya, that's why it's called facepalm

im running the 1.85 now for the heck of it. i found that fastboot oem lock works differently then i remember it, you issue the command and it goes to a black screen. just make sure you go back into fastboot before running the ruu.

I'm running hboot 1.14 and can confirm that I've flashed CM10.1 (and restored a nandroid including the boot partition) without needing to fastboot flash the boot.img.
Seems like those running 1.14 are pretty rare around these parts...or maybe just quiet.
Edit: Restore was to AOSPA 2.54 (JB 4.1.2).

[Q] HTC One X won't get past One x screen

Hi,
Yesterday I tried flashing my One X for the first time, but now it seems to be stuck at the the One X screen when I try booting it.
Tried pretty much everything and now my back-up seems to be wiped as well..
When getting the version with the fastboot tool I get: 3.14.161.28, it is a Dutch Vodafone branded phone.
Is there anyway to get it alive again?
Would love your input!
Thanks in advance

Ok so you went to HTCDEV and unlocked the phone and flashed the unlock code and in your bootloader it says tampered and unlocked?
The reason I ask is the 2.20 method won't even come close to working on 3.18
