[Q] (Cyanogenmod 10.1) HBoot requirement??? - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Hello, I am fairly new to XDA so, I do not know much. But I am fairly knowledged on technology so just say what you may to help out.
I rooted my HTC One X (Evita) And I installed Cyanogenmod 10 . Now I wanna install cm10.1 nightly, now I installed the
M-2 Release and went back to cm10 now I hear there is a HBOOT requirement.
Now, what would happen if. I tried the nightly (boot loop)?? Because I wanna try it and I don't really trust any other dev except AOKP. Thanks!

There is no requirement. But if your on hboot 2.14 from either a ruu or your hox came with 2.14 then you need to downgrade your touchscreen firmware. The thread is sticked in original dev section. You should be fine flashing the nightly

No you wont get bricked but if your not soff you will need to flash the boot.img of the ROM in question in fast boot because your on 2.20. All the instructions for flashing will be in the roms thread in the first post.

You won't brick. Just make sure you flash the boot.img if the ROM requires it. Just check the 1st post in the ROMs thread and there should be instructions for flashing if your worried still

This is true. I am on 1.14. I flashed about four roms. If you are stuck in bootloop, then just reformat /system and /data, and reflash, and then use fastboot the boot.img. Most of the CM roms requires it. But, I seriously suggest you get S-OFF, while you can. It is worth it, and makes life really simple. The link is in my sig

You have the middle eastern variant of this phone, none of the firmware/hboots/radios etc from the normal version are compatible and will most likely brick your phone if you try to install them. Basically, you can't run any aosp ROM because you can't flash the necessary upgrades. It's unfortunate but you're stuck with Sense ROMs.
The problem is that there simply aren't enough of the middle eastern variant around so there is no development specifically for it, so all you users with that variant are kinda stuck coming into this forum where not everything is compatible.

There's no such thing as hboot 2.20, that's your software version. You need to upgrade your firmware by running the 3.18 RUU. It does state that very clearly in the CM thread. You must have s-off to do this or you'll brick.

I tried getting s-off with the facepalm method and had no luck. I had no erros other than the ones expected in the instructions. I'm beginning to wonder if maybe my firmware is too old. I now know that my kernal version is 3.0.51.

Why not update your ROM and try again?

You should compare the basebands not the hboot. Check under settings -> about. You can update your baseband to the latest by flashing the newer radio. But keep your hboots where they are for now, DON'T use a OTA update or RUU.

Do not update the hboot unless you want to jump through hoops to flash roms. I have seen many complain of issues with hboot higher than 1.09. Highly recommend leaving it alone. I am on 1.06 and never have problems like the updated ones.

In which country are you living?
If it's somewhere in Europe (sparda?! - maybe Germany ) the latest radio is 1.06s.50.02.27_2_10.08.50.04L.
Anyway you should keep your current hboot so. Just flash the radio. If you want, send me a PM and I'll give you a link to a cwm backup I made right after my RUU Update. It's untouched (no personal settings etc.), only with Super SU in \system, so you will have everything like as you'd run the RUU update and rooted your device.
Please learn more about the 4.04 update here.

I appreciate your advise. I discovered that I am also on 1.06 HBoot and was thinking that I had to do an OTA update to get the latest radio. So now I should be able to find a radio update and flash it in CWM.
-------------
Half an hour of searching later, I've come to conclude that the only way to update the radio is via the RUU update process. I haven't found any newer radio that is flashable. So I don't really think there is any way to keep my 1.06 hboot AND update the radio.
if you are using cwm you need to fastboot it if using twrp recovery you can flash thru recovery

You didn't search hard enough. On hboot 1.06 you can flash radios using twrp, no ruu necessary. I know because I did it, and so did many others.

The radios on the Cyanogenmod site (first link) are from the 1.78 base. I am using TweakDroid 7.1 which is from the 2.21 base and so I want the most recent radio that goes with that base. Your second link to the dropbox gives me hope... What is it? Dated July 19, would this be the one from the newer base?
Thanks!
Yes that is the newest
The other link is to how to fastboot radio. Fastboot into recovery per instructions. Be careful.

No, i'm talking about trying to flash the Evita CleanROM which has returned to be futile. Aroma installer crashed/froze while selecting apps i wanted to install, switched back to AOKP Mr1 M1.

Do I need to update my RUU if I'm installing a CM10.1 based rom?

I was running ViperRom XL, and it messed up my phone. I was thinking about going back to stock but wanted to give another rom a try before doing that. I was considering installing Avatar Rom which says to follow the Cyanogenmod directions for installation. The first line when looking at Cyanogenmod's installation instructions is:
The CM 10.1 builds require you to be updated to the newest 3.17/3.18 RUU (for the updated firmware and the 2.14 hboot). You also must downgrade your touchscreen firmware, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38304611&postcount=1
That line seemed a little ambiguous to me, and I wanted to make sure I absolutely understood before continuing.
I'm only running hboot ver 1.14.0002 with S-OFF and SuperCID. Since I never updated to 2.14, does that mean I don't need to update my RUU to 3.17/3.18? Do I need to downgrade my touchscreen firmware?
Or can I get right into flashing the new rom?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Yes, if it has the 3.4 kernel you will need to RUU up to 3.18.

I need to edit this because I have a choice overload with all of these RUUs. I went to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191477.

In fact, the only AT&T RUU is the 1.44 version (RUU_Evita_UL_ATT_US_1.44.502.1_Radio_0.15.3201.09_ release_249105.exe).

If you look at the first post in the Dev thread, you will also see that it is no longer necessary for you to downgrade your touchpanel firmware. H8 had that removed quite a while ago.

Thank you, I am more reassured
You or someone I could confirm if the version
is 3.18 best for my phone? or they have any better?
The 3.18 RUU is the latest at&t RUU that has been released. It will update your hboot to 2.14, which is good because if you plan on running any recent aosp ROM you need that hboot. If you plan on staying stock though you'll have JB 4.1 running.

Timmaaa,
If I've upgraded the firmware and flashed Turge's 4.2.2 sense ROM, do you think it's safe to RUU back to stock?
The combination of the new ROM, the new firmware, and Beastmode kernel seem to produce bad behaviors like going to airplane mode during calls and random shutdowns.

I haven't seen anyone report running an RUU while on the latest firmware, but if you're s-off you should be safe to do so. Please note I'm saying you SHOULD be safe, this is not a guarantee as I haven't tested it, but I'd assume that the theory is sound.

If you've upgraded your firmware you might not necessarily need to use the Beastmode kernel, you could try dirty flashing the ROM. This will in effect just replace Beastmode with the stock kernel.

Htc One X 4.0.4 need flashing help

I have my at&t htc one x with ics 4.0.4, rooted and bootloader unlocked, hboot 1.14.002 S-on,
how can i get rid of the at&t and flash a normal rom like cm 10.2,
i read some post and tried to flash rom but gave me error 7.
can any one help me in update to 4.2.2.
The reason the ROMs failed to flash is because your firmware is too old. It does state very clearly in the cm threads that you need to run the 3.18 RUU to upgrade your firmware before installing the ROM. You absolutely must get s-off before you do this though or you'll brick your phone. Head over to the Facepalm S-off or Rumrunner S-off threads and get s-off. Then you can run the 3.18 RUU, if you need help with that look at this thread. Once you've done that you can flash any current aosp ROM.
PS. It'd help you a great deal if you did some research before flashing a ROM, the requirements for flashing cm ROMs are right there in the install instructions. Plus, it's rule #1 here on XDA to search before posting.

I know you mean well but recommending one ROM over the other isn't allowed on XDA. To say one ROM is better infers that the others are inferior in some way, which isn't fair to the devs. He didn't even mention a Sense ROM anyway, he mentioned CM. He also needs to take care of the things I mentioned in my post first. If he did what you said he'd end up in a bootloop because his firmware is too low. I know you mean well but maybe you need to learn a bit more before you start giving out advice, advising people when you don't really know what you're talking about can result in damages phones and nobody wants that to happen.

@TimAAa I actually advised him because I am on the same firmware that he has and mine bootloader details are exactly same as his ,and I am running the Rom with no issues as well so thought of helping me that's it

I know why you did it, I was just letting you know that recommending one ROM over another isn't allowed, for future reference. Plus he didn't ask for a Sense ROM. Plus his firmware version is too to run a Sense 5 ROM.

thanks in advance for explaining and the help you are giving me,
i will start doing all what you said step by step and read the threads , and will inform you where i reached.
i found REVONE for getting the S-OFF, and it is very easy to use, what do you prefer to use and which one ,
You can't use revone, that is the for HTC One, it won't work for our phone. You really shouldn't be wandering into other forums, it's a bad idea, the exploits and software for other devices could very easily brick your phone. Here's our device forum main page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1538
Bookmark that and make sure you stay within it. You can only use the two s-off methods I gave you links for in my earlier post, as for which one is easier, probably the Rumrunner method. Both will work though.

i tried the Rumrunner 3 time and end up in the pic a attached. "press Enter to exit"
also granted all the SU requests.
i dont know what happened or what to do else.

It's possible that it's because you're on older firmware that it didn't work. Although sometimes it says it didn't work but it did, check your bootloader just in case. If it turns out you're still s-on, try the Facepalm method instead.

The reason the ROMs failed to flash is because your firmware is too old. It does state very clearly in the cm threads that you need to run the 3.18 RUU to upgrade your firmware before installing the ROM. You absolutely must get s-off before you do this though or you'll brick your phone. Head over to the Facepalm S-off or Rumrunner S-off threads and get s-off. Then you can run the 3.18 RUU, if you need help with that look at this thread. Once you've done that you can flash any current aosp ROM.
PS. It'd help you a great deal if you did some research before flashing a ROM, the requirements for flashing cm ROMs are right there in the install instructions. Plus, it's rule #1 here on XDA to search before posting.
