[Q] unable to revert to stock - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

So I tried to install a custom rom on my phone, yet I was stupid and did not back it up. The phone is stuck in a boot loop. I tried using the 1.85 RUU, but kept getting error 155 (i tried everything). please excuse my noobness, I have absolutely no idea what I am doing.

Where did you get to? What hboot are you on? Did you flash recovery? Can you get to recovery?
If you don't know what the hell you're doing why the hell would you root your phone? If you wanted to juggle fire would you just start or look into the risks and safest ways to do it first?

i've gotten into recovery and my hboot is 1.14.0002

When you flash a rom, because you're on hboot 1.14 you need to fastboot flash boot boot.IMG
The boot.IMG would be extracted from the rom you're flashing.

I tried going from stock ics to ice cold. I flashed the boot.img, and then in cwm it gave me an error and could not flash the rom

Be sure you're using the right version of IC. There is only one version, a jelly bean port, that works on this phone. Everything else will hard brick you. There is no evita version of IceColdSandwich.
You can't use the 1.85 RUU with 1.14 hboot unless you're s-off. You're probably on 2.20.

suggestion to re lock his hox was mentioned but his reply didn't say if he locked it, just said he tried to run the ruu. Bet it still needs locking! Also OP do you have super cid? If so he doesnt need 1.85 right? He can use the 1.73. I would still probably use the 1.85 like rpopo recommended though. Also if you have done everything correct (re locked and 1.85 if not super cid) the USB drivers can make a difference. I was super cid and locked and ruu kept failing. uninstalled my HTC drivers and ran the HTC sync program and used those drivers...Worked first time after that! Just have to remember to not actually have HTC sync running!
Wats a super cid..? Srry I'm new to rooting

Try the 1.85 ruu. Relocking and running the 1.85ruu usually gets you back up and running.

You have to be able to use adb on your computer to relock. There is a sticky with the info on how to install drivers, use adb and relock your phone.

Then run 1.85 ruu, make sure you have the USB drivers for the phone installed and then once you do that, re-root and unlock the bootloader.
It works ran the 1.85 ruu. Ten minutes later running perfectly/ :laugh::good::good::good:

If you flashed a good ROM and your stuck in hboot, use fastboot and use the following command 'fastboot oem boot' that will force your phone to boot.
Stay unlocked push recovery in fastboot again
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Start the RUU. Finish the install, then back into hboot, select recovery
Invest in a copy of titanium backup and use between rom flashing hence there isn't a micro sd card slot in the HOX

fyi, This is an old thread. It looks like he got what he needed the 2nd day of august.

Just got Android 4.0.4 with Sense 4.1 - How to intall it on my rooted One S?

Hey. Pretty much what the title says!
When i try to install it, the phone reboots at some point and enters recovery, which in my case is a custom recovery (Team WIN).
Obviously it cant work like that.
Any tips?
you have to relock the bootloader, then flash the 1.78 RUU.
after that you can find the OTA update in system information
how do i relock?
I'm getting very confused here
I have downloaded the ota zip provided elsewere on the forum and in the version.txt it says '1.78.401.2 CL58751 release-keys' so obviously this can be installed over stock 1.78.401.2.
I have already installed 2.21.401.10 RUU and am running a custom rom from this.
Is this update being offered to those running stock 2.21.401.10 or do I have to wait until a 2.31.401.5 RUU is available.
Seems a very odd update system that HTC is employing here.

Never do what some guy on the web says. Its unnecessary to relock and flash ruu. Flashing stock recovery is enough.
Dont listen to this guy. Thx to him my bootloader is now relocked and i cant flash stock ruu. Nice.
could someone please tell me here can i get the stock recovey?
the only one i can find is the TWRP 2.2.1 and Official ClockworkMod Touch Recovery 5.8.3.1
or relocking (fastboot oem lock) does the trick?
Just to tell you: This OTA can not be flashed over 2.21, wait for the RUU please if you are on the 2.21 base

Run the RUU again after locking will do the trick but, if you do it this way, remember to back everything up as you will lose all of your data.
Hey, today I get a scratch on my One S whereas it's always in my pocket. So I decide to buy a screen protector. What is the best one ? (-10 dollars :angel: )
I repeat: If you are on a rooted but stock ROM, it is NOT NECESSARY TO RELOCK OR FLASH AN RUU.
Just reflash the stock recovery. You will lose root, but none of your data.

After you unlock and flash twrp, make a nandroid of your setup, then do a factory reset, then make a nandroid of the clean 2.31, and zip it up and post it! Then you can just restore your first nandroid and you won't have to set everything up again. And the rest of us will have a clean twrp recovery of 2.31 to flash

Can only boot to bootloader and all RUU failed
I am in a bit of trouble at the moment. I will try to describe what I have done to end up where I am now.
I have a Telstra HTC One XL. Recently upgraded an already unlocked, rooted HOXL to JB using the OTA update (big mistake I know now). This upgraded the hboot to 2.14 and software to 3.17.8xxx.
Spent a lot of time trying to re-root. TWRP didn't work (no touch response). So I eventually found the Interim CWM Recovery (no touch) by Modaco. This seemed to work well and I managed to root the phone.
Then i followed the instructions to flash to KingBeatZ 1.2.0 ROM. Booted fine but had no touch response too.
So I wiped KingBeatZ 1.2.0 and went for the nightly CM10. Again, booted fine but no touch response.
OK, so I figured I should just go back to my restored data. Tried that but apparently no restore data (didn't realise a wipe wiped the restore data as well, what is the point of that?)
So I decided to wipe CM10 to try flashing the Stock Rooted Telstra ROM by pablo11. This wipe however seems to have wiped incorrectly and this is where my real problem begins. I can now only boot to BL and Recovery. I cannot mount the sdcard so I have no way of pushing ROMS to my phone. I have tried a Telstra RUU and the latest Asia one. About to try the 1.89 Telstra RUU but I don't think that will make any difference. The setups do not detect an existing version on my phone, and all fail with Error 155. I have read that this error generally occurs due to unlocked bootloader so I have already relocked it.
I do not know what I should do now to restore any functionality to my HOXL. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can't run the RUU for a different carrier (CID), and you can't run an RUU for an older version. So neither 1.89 Telstra or an Asia RUU will work. You may be stuck waiting for the 3.17 RUU (don't think its been posted yet?).
You might also be able to make your own RUU by sticking the ROM in the Development forum in an RUU package. I don't know the specifics, and haven't done it myself. But I think it was done for Rogers, which never had a proper RUU package. So others might be able to advise you better on this.

You would need the .img files EX: system.img boot.img
Since our ROMs aren't packaged that way it won't work.
There's a way to create the system.img but its beyond me, and I do believe if it isn't signed it will fail
The only thing you can flash in hboot by ruu without s-off without being signed would be a boot.img
I would suggest trying to flash a stock ROM and a different kernel, or waiting for the ruu

Take a stock ROM and pull out the boot.img
And fastboot flash boot boot.img just to make sure it flashes

[Q] From ICS to JB

Hi, I have a HTC ONE XL for AT&T with S-OFF and unlocked bootloader. I have the nocturnal ROM based on ICS. Also HBOOT 1.01.0000.
I want to install a rom based on JB (This particular CleanROM 6.5 - ★ | Jellybean 4.1.1! |).
My question is with this hboot, can i flash a jb rom from ICS? Because I'm not sure if flash from recovery the zip of this rom bricked me.
It won't brick you. I'm not sure if you'll experience issues using such an old firmware with a ROM based on the latest softwate

Yes install the Ruu, then push twrp, then install CR. This will give you the latest firmware. CR by itself does not so it, and some gave experienced random reboots with older wifi firmware. Just be aware that a small subset of HOXL phones do not work well with Maps/nav under JB

thanks for reply! I did brick my phone when i try to install an official ruu 2 months ago, but i did fix this ($$$$). The problem is that I can not install because I have CID 111111 and CR root, bootloader unlocked etc
With s-off you won't brick running an ruu. Though my phone will no longer ruu properly but that's another story. I may post a thread about it in case others experience it so they know how to recover.

Something went wrong while RUUing and my hboot partition cannot be written over without clearing the cache first. So the RUU will get to the end and then fail. Everything flashed except the hboot. It's kind of funny because it looks like a brick when it happens but it remains in RUU mode so I can just fastboot flash the hboot seperately after and everything works but RUUs will no longer complete successfully Always half bricks.
How did it happen? Well I think it's because I was RUUing in a VM as I was running linux exclusively at the time. But during RUU the phone looses connection and I have to manually reconnect to my phone and I didn't realize so it interrupted the RUU. I'm just lucky I didn't end up with a full brick! ^_^

[Q] RUU question

Just plug in your phone and run it. It's an exe file.
Be sure you're s-off, though, unless you're stock.

i am s-off will i have to re root my phone after i use the ruu?
The RUU will return your phone to completely stock, so of course you will not have root anymore. But, your unlocked bootloader and s-off status will survive the process so all you need to do is flash TWRP again and then you can flash a rooted ROM.

You are putting the ".img" on the end of the command right?

I S-OFF'd and ran the 3.18 RUU in order to run CM 10.1 nightlies. I'm thinking about selling this phone, so would I just run the same RUU again in order to return to stock AT&T status?

You could relock if you want to, but it doesn't really matter.

Maybe a stupid question but does the phone have to be in fastboot mode to run the ruu?
