He bricked it. SuperCID and jb update = brick. Thats yhe reason you search and read BEFORE flashing. Just because u find a file don't mean it should be flashed carelessly. and just here in q-a there has to be a easy 15-20 threads on the 3.17/3.18 updates bricking devices

well on a positive not it is now ready to be returned to HTC....

I am an intl One X user but one of my mates has the ATT One X. He upgraded to JB but now he wants to root but seeing here there is no root exploits so far for JB. Can he return to ICS in anyway and then root?

There are root exploits for JB.

Rogers One X Updates???

Guys,
Have there been any updates for the Rogers One X other than the original release? I couldn't find anything after searching.
Thanks,
Y2J
Nope, just custom roms

I am assuming there is no way to get back to original Rogers stock out of the box since we don't have s-off yet, correct?

Just run the Rogers RUU
if my phone is only rooted, can i just double click the rogers RUU and follow the instructions to return to stock? will it still say that it's been 'tampered'?

Man I dunno what the effing secret is but I've tried all the rogers ruu threads and that **** don't work. Att and other ruus work fine (supercid) but that effing pos rogers ruu is rediculous... Always spits out some random error... Usually "incompatible bootloader error 140"

So I made the mistake of not backing up my original stock software that shipped with my telus one x. Does anyone out there have a link to the telus stock software?

Well there is the ruu so if your really willing to go all our you could relock keeping your unlock token safe, then unlock, flash the SU binary and bingo. The ruu is on the HTC Dev website.

I am in the same situation as the OP. I rooted the stock rom and I don't backup the RUU, I am still a beginner and I had no idea I should back it up

Ok, here is my dilema:
Right now I have software number 1.93 (ICS 4.0.3), but pretty soon the OTA update for ICS 4.0.4 is going to be rolled out. From what I understood because I have an unlocked bootloader + rooted phone, the OTA update will fail unless I revert to "stock" (I am not sure here what this stock is supposed to be exactly).
1. Is it true and if yes what do I need to be able to receive the update ?
2. In case I decide I want to flash a custom rom, what should I do to be 100% sure I can revert to the original rom?
P.S. Some mod please modify the title from Tells RUU to TELUS RUU, it prevents Google from finding any posts regarding the Telus version. Thank you.

Ya sorry guys my phone autocorrected Telus....annoying.
As far as I can tell...us Telus users still don't have an option to get back to stock
Unless anyone is willing to prove me wrong
Well, I am rooted with an unlocked bootloader, but if there is a way to extract the stock RUU from my phone I'll uploaded once it is done.
Thad be great and I would direct you on how to do it if I knew how lol.

And that means what? I always update Q&A threads whenever. People other than OP might be looking still. Also, seeing this thread made me wonder for my own purposes seeing as I am a Telus user as well. Who cares if it is a year old. Mods would have locked/deleted it if it was old/outdated/etc.

You're not supposed to revive old threads. They won't ever be locked. There's a sticky with all the RUUs so there's no reason not to find them if you're searching.

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.

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.

As you're with Telstra you will be able to unlock the bootloader on your device through htcdev then install the custom recovery then flash a rom with root as there is currently no root exploit for Jellybean.
As suggested above though do your homework first.

[q] htc one x future updates

Hi, I recently purchased an HTC one X and I get a message with red letters saying "this build is for development purposes only do not distribute outside of htc", also my htc has been ramdomly rebooting, I want to go back to the stock ROM because I think I might have a custom one and that can be the cause of the random rebooting.
I have the 4.1 oficial firmware but I am affraid to flash it because my phone can become a brick.... The phone was rooted with SuperSU but I have uninstalled it and checked with titanium and I can no longer get superuser rights(I suppose I have succesfully unrooted my phone), I have also checked on bootlader and I have S-ON so I dont know if I am under conditions to flash the oficial firmware without risk(I dont want a brik). I want the original firmware because of the upcoming 4.2 and sense 5.0 update HTC will be releasing.
Thanks in advace for your help.

Is that all??? with S-OFF there is absolute no risk of briking??
Nonononono there's a tradeoff. Because once you supercid you brick if you ruu while s-on. So you need to s-off so as not to brick while RUUing. Technically because there are no longer security checks you have a greater amount of risk If you do something stupid.

Just flash a stock rooted Rom would be my advice.. what are you gaining from ruu? Look at cleanrom, it's forsurely the most stable for this phone... Just my 2 cents cause if ya don't know what you're doing or are comfortable using adb odds are is you will booger up your new to you phone..

Updated firmware that is not part of the ROM. If you read the top post of CleanROM, its recommended to RUU first. Its not "required", but some folks have found it helpful to resolve some issues, like random reboots.

Nothing you do to your phone can remove all risk of bricking when you flash. There is always a risk.
But if you have S-On and SuperCID, and try to install certain OTAs or RUUs, a brick is certain (known brick condition).

If you are S-on and SuperCID (which your phone likely is), and try to take the 3.18 Jellybean OTA, or run the 3.18 RUU, you will brick.
S-off will at least prevent bricking from this particular condition. The other option is change back to the AT&T CID.
