Hello
I have a AT&T HTC One X, and i have tried to relock the bootloader and unroot the phone. I have only relocked the bootloader. It had the stock rom in it. Now, whenever I try doing anything to the phone, it goes back into bootloader. I tried going into recovery but no luck. Need help.

HBOOT 2.14.000. S-OFF, and I'm new to this, so I don't know
You have a custom recovery on it, I assume? Once you relock, you have to run a RUU or unlock. It won't boot up on a custom recovery after you relock.
basically, just ruu. youll be stock while retaining s-off.

It's S-ON, not S-OFF
Wait, no. If you're s-off, that shouldn't happen. You can boot on whatever when you're s-off. But running a RUU will get you back to stock regardless.
Edit: That explains it. When you're s-on, you have to RUU after relocking.

Alright. Please guide me on what to do.
Check your CID first. Running a jelly bean RUU with SuperCID (11111111) will brick your phone.

S-Off is okay...in fact it's recommended...but you need to unroot. Also your CID must be T-Mobile's one...

Is the error when you try to relock or when trying to flash ruu? If when trying to flash ruu you need to first relock bootloader and then flash ruu. If it's when you are trying to track make sure you are following the correct steps

Ya use TWRP recovery and flash TrickDroid but make sure you get the right one.
So, I have done a lot of research and I am hung up on one bit.
I have the stock RUU file on my PC.
I also have superCID . I am rooted with S-OFF
Think i used Revolutionary etc. Currently using ARHD 6.8.0
I want to return to Full Stock with S-ON. I looked at this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
But it doesn't say if I need to change my CID back to VODAP001 before or after (Or at all) I flash the Stock RUU. <hope that makes sense?
Could anyone help me?
I basically have the RUU. and need to know about the CID. Does it need to be changed?
Thanks
Just seen this actually
I can confirm SuperCID is successful as i just flashed a Tmous Rom (1.25.***) to my EU unbranded device to check. (added t-mobile tv and other carrier stuff to my apps list)
Does ^ this mean I can run the RUU with my SUPER CID?
Then just S-On once done??
thanks again.

Hi,
If you are returning your phone for warranty purposes,you need to return your SuperCID to normal.
This should be done after running your RUU,but before going back to s-on.
Look HERE for more information.

Cool, well the RUU I have will need the VODAP001 *** (I think it's that, will check before I attempt lol)
So I flash the RUU then I can use this:
Code:
fastboot oem writecid ******* Replacing the *'s with the CID I need.
Once done, can then return to S-ON

also about S-ON read carefully what it is saying about bootloader
your bootloader must be LOCKED, RELOCKED or UNLOCKED otherwise don't do S-ON

if your bootloader says locked now(as you are mentioning) then you can continue with S-ON
edit:what to do for S-ON?
from the same guide it has a tutorial for it
but i think it is a simple command and then you are done

Sorry, I actually mean, before I restored the RUU it said locked. Now it doesnt mention anything.
It no longer says that, or unlocked / relocked.
So I haven't proceeded with the S-ON command.

Hi,
No.
If you ran a RUU,then,everything would have returned to stock.
S-off is not affected.
So,to get back up and running,you will need to do all these things again.

If you change your CID back to CWS_001, theoretically, you should not brick running the 2.20 RUU, I'm not sure what will happen if you were to upgrade to 3.18 at any point. Probably brick in that case.
Safest way to RUU is to S-OFF first.

There is no way to S-OFF without a ROM.
So your choices are
Unlock, flash recovery, flash rom, fastboot flash boot.img, S-OFF, RUU.
Or
Fastboot writecid CWS__001, RUU 2.20, Never upgrade for fear of bricking.

Do whichever one you want. Just remember without S-OFF, I'm pretty sure you will not be able to upgrade to 3.18+ without bricking.

2.20 RUU will run with SuperCID, bootloader locked and S-on. With the 3.18 RUU, you will brick under those conditions.
If I flash an RUU does that make me S-On and relock my bootloader? If so where can I find one? If it doesn't relock or do S-On can I get some instructions? I just see instructions on how to root etc but not vice versa.
