[Q] Hboot questions - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Hey Guys,
I'm currently with hboot 1.11.0000
Here's what my bootloader says:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
EVITA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.11.0000
RADIO-9.32a.32.09.29
OpenDSP-v31.1.0.45.0815
eMMC-boot
I apparently need to update my phone to 3.18 to install H8rift's CM10.1, but After running the RUU installer, I got an error 159.
Isn't there a way I can update my hboot through the Android SDK?

It's not just the hboot that needs updating the idea other things in the RUU as well. Which RUU did you try running?

Oh psh I'm dumb... You'll need to s-off first and then run the ruu. You should be good after that.

Well, tried S-OFFing it, got an error 99 during that process.
Looked around and found that I should SUPERCID my phone, And I keep getting ROGER001 instead of 111111111 ...
FML :C
EDIT : After a log of yelling and keyboard smashing, I CID'd and S-OFF'd my phone. I'm attempting to run this now!
EDIT 2 : Everything is done! Thanks for the hint! Can a mod lock this thread?

Wrong it needs the 3.17/3.18 firmware files, it is not about hboot.214, just the same as the touch screen driver issue was never hboot 2.14.
RUU your phone. Easiest method is to supercid, s-off and then RUU.
You will likely want access to a Windows machine at some point during that.

Is it possible to just flash the OTA JB update instead of ruu? I already have supercid, s-off and unlocked

Yes.. but you need to extract the recovery.img from the update zip file. Then fastboot flash the stock recovery (after making sure the ota is on your storage) then boot to bootloader. Then recovery. Press volume up and press and release power to access recovery menu. Then pick the ota and flash

And on that note, I will no longer be helping on xda for this device. My posts are getting increasingly aggressive and I'm tired of helping people who have no interest in helping themselves. If I ever post here again it will only be as a dev for my own aosp rom.
Bye all.

Upgrading hboot
On hboot 1.14 on my AT&T Evita device, S-ON. Are there clear instructions anywhere for getting this done? Easy enough to do this from stock, but don't see the upgrade scenario. Thanks in advance and really appreciate the solid contributions in this forum.

Having trouble with stability and features when running some of the newer AOSP roms. e.g. when running Carbon AOSP, having trouble with data connection, torch, and reboots. Devs feel my older hboot is the culprit, as that is the only difference they are seeing in my device.

I've been on 1.09 and run just about every Rom available on xda and never encountered issues other than the known bugs in the roms.. I would s-off and then run ruu to get on latest firmware.

[Q] S-OFF on Sensation XE with Revolutionary

Please would someone be able to advise as per the following:
Im currently running stock GB on o2 unlocked and used revolutionary tool to S-off only and h -boot 1.117.
Eveything else is stock...
Will i be able to OTA the new ICS when HTC release or do i have to do anything to the phone to get it.
regards
rich
You should be able to but from this thread > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487521
They say don't mess around with it.
You should do. I was able to receive an OTA update when I was s-off but that was after reinstalling an RUU which must have been an old version and the OTA updated to the latest version. That was a month or so ago though

please advise if i can just reinstall an ruu or do i have to do anything else beforehand.
Or Will i receive ota when HTC release the new ICS

If you are still on the stock gingerbread that came with your device then yes you will receive the ota update, unlocking and s-off don't make a difference.

Help wifi error on ARHD roms!

Just rooted my wives TMOUS Sensation with the unlocked bootloader, s-ON. Everything went fine. flashed 4ext then super wiped then flashed the ARHD roms and all had errors or would not connect to WIFI. I tried the Beats one, the Tmobile one and same issue!

Just noticed! no radio is listed! Could this be the problem and how to fix it?
not sure if this would be the problem but it does say you need s-off to install ARHD. i installed the t-mobile version with s-off and everything worked fine with me.
Really? I need to be s-off? I though I could be unlocked bootloader! Could not get that damn wire trick to work! What now?
Keep trying don't give up. The wire trick is touchy and I believe it's a matter of timing. Read the instructions again and get the timing correct and you will be good! I wish you the best! You can do it ! Have patience. Good luck!

For some roms you need to be s-off. There's a thread here on xda that will help you with the timing of the wire trick, if you don't get it the first tries keep trying you'll get it

No you won't lose s-off with RUU installation. BTW you don't need to run RUU to update hboot and radio, you can just flash firmware

cant s-off

I can't s-off my HTC one x, I tries firewater, rumrunner and moonshine but all of them fail to work. My htc one x is running 4.1.1 and has hboot 2.14.0000. It is perm rooted and has been unlocked through HTC dev.
You haven't provided enough information. Just saying they fail to work is the same as saying nothing. Exactly what happens? How do they fail? Do you have SuperCID? Have you tried Facepalm s-off?

I have supercid i did it by modifying the cid file with a hex editor then pushing it to the device. Firewater chugs all the bottles but still no buzz as it says after many retries. rumrunner cant download update package even though i rebooted pc and turned off windows and antivirus i tried each many times. As with moonshine i couldnt find a compatible version for me device the only ones listed are the htc one,one s, one vx, one s, one sv, htc evo, droid dna and htc first. Isint facepalm not compatible for my device? i could only find for one s,one xl and droid dna. i hope i provided enough info if not just ask for more.
I'm pretty sure you do have the HTC One XL, judging by the fact that you're posting in the One XL forum, and by your hboot version. What are your bootloader details?
