How to know if my device is S-OFF ( locked bootloader? )

Some sensations come with the unlocked bootloader right? mine is one of the newest sensations, and i think maybe it's unlocked, but how y can know that?

Make sure Fastboot is turned off in Settings > Power
Power down the phone.
Hold down the volume down button and power at the same time until it takes you to screen
That will say Ship S-On (locked bootloader)
Or Ship S-Off (unlocked bootloader.
I believe that's it.

THanks my friend, this worked very well but...
Oh Fuc* i have no lucky... mine is saying...
SHIP S-ON... so its locked.... damn, HTC will unlock our locked devices one of those days?

So has anyone heard of bricking while....

So has anyone heard of bricking while flashing a stock rom on an rooted locked device?
I pulled down the official HTC AT&T ROM for the ONE X (original) this afternoon (a few minutes ago) and flashed it via my laptop and the HTC cable that came with the phone. It went along just fine and at about 30% it started going slower on the amount of time between percent increases then sped up around 34-35 percent to complete.
When it was done I had a success message from the RUU installer and a device that would no longer power on. Version CID__001 again an AT&T HTC ONE X
I'm getting the dreaded QHSUSB message in windows now

Wait, you have a dual-core AT&T One X? And CID__001? Because that is a cid for the Tegra One X.

It may have been CWS. Don't recall.
The only reason I even know what a "CID" is would be because I saw a list of devices for whom JB was available for and I had to know my CID to find out if I was eligible. I used the fastboot getvar cid to see what it was and It was either CID or CWS __001

If you never modded the phone, its CWS__001.
There have been some isolated cases of people bricking on bone stock, never-modded phones when updating. It happens when something goes wrong in the middle of flashing the new firmware so that hboot or some other critical element gets corrupted.
You're due for a warranty return.

Yeah, its in the mail to them already. The tech was nice on the phone but basically told me he had never heard of such a thing happening before so if I was sure it hadn't been modified then the warranty would be honored.

[Q] One XL outside the US

Hi everyone, i recently got my wife the At&T version of the One X and i live in Bahrain, ( i personally have the tegra3 version), the question is she still has the stock 4.0.4 with sense 4.0 and the phone is branded with at&t stuff, is there anyway to flash one of the latest sense 5 updates which will not brick the device? or brick the radio function?
Our GSM Frequencies are: GSM 900, GSM 1800 UMTS 2100
our 4G frequencies are: LTE 1800
i know the device is not 4G compatible here but i need the 3G to work... any help needed

It doesn't matter which ROM you're on, the capabilities of the radio hardware doesn't change. You won't be able to download updates via the Settings menu because you're outside the US. You can download the OTA updates and manually flash them though.
Sent from my Evita

ah thanks for the quick response, can you point me to the threads or to the latest version?

You'll need to take the OTA's in order, you can find all the information here.
Sent from my Evita

those are Sense 4.5 ROMs right? isent there an update with sense 5 out for the one xl?

There is no RUU for Sense 5, it's an OTA, but at&t haven't released it yet so the closest you'll get is Sense 4+ and Android 4.1 (until at&t release the update).
If you don't want to wait you could unlock/root and then flash a Sense 5 ROM of your choosing.
Sent from my Evita

ah ok thanks, i will wait for the official one from at&t since my wife doesn't need root..one last thing.
can i use this?

I'm not sure, I've never heard of a 3.07 update. I'd suggest sticking with the at&t 3.18 RUU on the page I linked to.
Sent from my Evita

yes its actually the 3.18 update, the 3.07 is the date it was released...
RUU_EVITA_UL_JB_45_S_Cingular_US_3.18.502.6_Radio_0.24p.32.09.06_10.130.32.34_release_signed_With_Partial.exe
so i just download that, get htc sync manager and im good? no need for custo recovery or other stuff?

Ahh, ok that makes sense now. You'll need to download HTC Sync Manager and that should be it.
We should probably double check your bootloader details first though to be safe. Turn the phone off completely, once it's powered off hold the volume down button then hold the power button (so you're holding them together). After about three seconds let go of the power button but keep holding volume down until you reach the bootloader (white screen with text). Please post the first five lines of text you see on the screen.

PS i don't think ota availability is region locked.
It is an idea that has been said many times before but from what I have seen the fota server does not block based on your current location or the mobile network you are currently connected to. Those details are sent but I have never seen it block anything you put in those fields.
Fota server does some simple imei checks to release updates in batches and to blacklist certain devices.
It checks model which comes from the build.prop of the rom and must be the correct HTC one x or HTC one xl.
It checks "firmware version" which we would typically call the HTC ROM version.
Most new updates check Cid which must be valid for that ota, eg carrier Cid of supercid.
That's about it.
Details about the radio, the current time and a bunch of other things are sent but do not determine if your phone will get the ota.

Wont update to sense 5 :eek:

Hey guys I was wondering if any one can help me here I have an issue and its bothering me like hell
So I bought my new AT&T one x and there was an update available (sense 5 update) and when I downloaded I pressed on update now and the phone turned off and just in the middle of the update , the installation shows an error triangle with exclamation mark and the phone restarted and nothing happened !
I need help updating it and without rooting my phone ...
thanks

I don't think there's an official sense 5 update from AT&T yet? What is your current firmware?

There is no Sense 5 update for at&t yet. Was the phone used? Does it respond at all when you try to power it on now?

So it sounds like you tried updating, it failed, and then you just rebooted back into android. I had this problem a while back. You can update via RUU, though it'll wipe your phone. Are you rooted? Also, there's no official Sense 5 for AT&T One X.

No my phone is not and was not rooted .. i bought newly yesterday
To be honest i dont know if its at&t but it is the one xl , the dual core one , unlocked (unlocked for any gsm network)
I really need help..
And if there is no official sense 5 then why do i get an update available when i scan ?? And it says sense 5 in the update info..

You don't know what carrier you're on? There is an update for sense 5 but not for AT&T. Anyways just fyi, but sorry don't know how to fix your issue.

How can you not know which carrier you're with? Before you think about taking an OTA we need to see your bootloader details first. To get to the bootloader turn off your phone, once it's completely off hold the volume down button and then the power button (so you're holding them together), after a few seconds let go of power but keep holding volume down until it reaches the white screen with text. This is your bootloader, please post the first five lines.

Oh , haha , sorry for the mistake.. i thought the dual core one x is nessesarly at&t...

And I do not want to root if there is an update , since there is i just need help installing it..

I already did check every single detail the moment I got my phone !
I even called my friend to come over to compare his ONE x with mine and no difference at all ! maybe the only difference is that my phone is faster XD , yet I am assuming it wont update because I have no sim card yet (no carrier)...
any more ideas ?

If you want help, you need to do a better job of reading replies and answering the questions that were already asked of you. We need more info before we can help. As timmaaa asked on a previous reply, we need hboot details.

So I got my sim card and I checked for updates and installed it , and did the same problem , got stuck with triangle and exclamation mark in it (in red color) and restarted after a minute or some thing and nothing changed ...

It isn't working because your CID was changed to SuperCID (11111111) by the previous owner of the phone. You need to change it back to the original CID fit the update to work. Is it definitely the at&t model? If so it should have the at&t logo at the top of the screen instead of the HTC logo.

Well... I bought the htc one xl from ebay , the dual core... It is unlocked and now my carrier is celcum since i put the celcum sim in my one xl... I am from Israel .. though the device i bought was brand new according to the seller... On top there is htc logo not at&t since its unlocked..

Sorry man, but your phone is pre-owned. If you really want the official update you need to change the CID to the original CID, the problem is you don't know what the original CID is. I'd contact the seller and firstly complain, and ask for a partial refund.

Ok I sent my seller a message of complain and he better answer me soon ! yet the device feels brand new ... even if it was pre owned I can accept it since I bought it for cheap money .. I get what I pay for .. any wayz I asked him for an original CID and when he gives it to me will it take me a long term process to change my CID back to the original ??
and thanks a lot for your help I appreciate it !!

The process to change the CID back is pretty easy, it's one fastboot command. Luckily the phone is s-off so you can change the CID as many times as you wish to. You'll need adb/fastboot installed on your pc, as well as HTC drivers.
The other option is to unlock the bootloader at htcdev, install a custom recovery (TWRP), and install a custom Sense 5 ROM (or any ROM for that matter). We have them in our development section and they range from completely stock to seriously tweaked, either way it's the same experience as you'd have by taking the official update.

Welll... The seller doesnt know the original cid and he still claims that all their phones sre brand new... Is there by any chance i can know my original cid besides asking the seller?

There isn't really any way to tell once the CID has been changed. You should be able to use any CID as long as you use the corresponding RUU to go with it.

I mean is there certain number of CIDs that I can try out and see which is original or its all random numbers and come with random phones ?
in that case I will try to push my seller to spell it out , otherwise I will have to root my phone ..

Bootloop trouble HTC One X

Hi all, having some trouble with my HTC One X.
I've had it for about 1.5 years with no problems at all, until tonight.
I was using Snapchat, put the phone down on charger ( was at 5% battery) and then had a nap.
Woke up and found it was boot looping, tried to get into the boot loader but it reboots within seconds of me getting to the boot loader screen and I can't select anything.
Any suggestions?
Cheers.

If the phone is bootlooping while in the bootloader it isn't a good sign, that usually suggests something wrong with the motherboard.
Do you have the HTC One X (Endeavoru) or the HTC One XL / at&t One X (Evita)?

Ok. You're in the wrong forum, this is the HTC One XL (Evita) forum. I believe it's a hardware issue but it's probably worth going and asking in the right place anyway.
