I really need some help with HTC One XL

I bought this phone outright, and I don't like the Telstra network so I put an Optus SIM in. Which works just fine, however I now have an issue which may or may not be related. I have unlocked my bootloader, and have obtained root. I cannot get s-off however, tried all the methods in this forum. And when I try to install a new Rom, such as cm10 and all nightly versions, venom viper, and all other Roms I have tried I cannot get passed the start up logo (or I just get a pure black screen). Yes I have waited and waited for extended periods of time but it won't load. No I'm not new to rooted phones, and have followed all insructions properly. Pls help me, I really hate all the Telstra bloatware on my phone.

you have to fastboot flash the boot.img when you are s-on

Only problem is I used that stupid one xl one click toolbox for my root. Which has completely stuffed me up.I should have done it the hard way like I did with my incredible s. I just got lazy. Don't suppose you know how to get s-off, without the one click fixes. Unfortunately they arnt working on this phone to acheive s-off

Not necessarily. It depends on your hboot version I believe.
I've never had to flash the boot image and I haven't done s-off.
@OP - did you need to s-off for any specific reason? You don't need to do this to flash a custom ROM. It's not required unless you want to reove the tampered text from the boot loader.

It makes life easier to have s-off. Besides I have issues with not having full access to something I have bought outright....lol

I s-off'd my HOXL because it makes it much safer from my own boneheaded mistakes. If I had done something silly like flashing the OTA RUU then I wouldn't be completely screwed.

S-OFF then run an older RUU if there's no RUU with the latest software.

Hmm.. I will use my psychic powers to figure out how to fix your issue!
Or you could just tell me some more information.. Hboot, software version, what method are you trying and what exactly is happeneing?

i am currently running viper rom and h boot 2,14 and i am s on
and have super su installed
tried this method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317536
i wonder if the issue is sd card related as google music isnt seeing my music stored on the phone where as the stock player is
when trying to do the super cid its like its cant write to the phone memory

That method won't work with S-on on 2.14 hboot lol
Whoever made that post should have made that clear.
In any case 2.14 has write protection, stopping you from writting the CID and the exploit for 3.18 doesn't work for non-at&T phones.
You would need to make a linux boot disk and run JET tool to downgrade your hboot and then Super CID, then S-OFF then RUU.
Also, that method is for the HTC ONE and you are in EVITA one xl forums... what phone do you have? You're all over the place -_-

Start from step 5 onward since you already have an unlocked bootloader and Su.

HTC One X thinks its an HTC One XL

I installed ViperXL on my HTC One X and I was going to install ElementalX kernel on my one X and when it semi bricked I went through the viperXL installer and installed the Stock XL kernal and ever since then it's had a lot of random reboots on whaterver Rom I put it on.
I'm on CleanROM now for one X and it still reboots.
It thinks it's a one XL and I have no idea what to do.

HTC one x from at&t is the same as HTC one xl

It is an AT&T HTC One X With Super CID and S-OFF
But the kernal Is what caused the random reboots cause it did not start till I simi bricked and I installed a XL kernal through the viperXL installer.
Im going to use the official RUU updater so it can reset back.

Just reflash the ROM and you should be fine.

Ive reflashed roms many times. Im pissed cause it keeps reseting and its annoying. So Im trying to use the official RUU Updater to see If that will work, Also my USB is not connecting to my pc corectly. I can only add music or pics from the htc sync manager and its ping me off.

Ok I'd suggest you try using the RUU then, but you'll need to diagnose why it isn't connecting properly via usb first, the last thing you want is for it to disconnect half way through the RUU process.
PS. I understand you're frustrated, but profanity isn't allowed on XDA.

My USB is now functioning as it should but it is now thinking it is a camera instead of a storage unit untill clicked on, Then I see internal storage.
And what is this wierd N in a square by my 4G?

Weird N = NFC. Unfortunately Samsung's had that for a while, and I think Sony and LG have to have that in their notification bar as well. It just means your NFC is toggled on.
Which is a real shame. NFC barely takes any battery power (unless you're back-to-back with another ICS+ NFC phone 24/7) and should always be kept on. Sucks that more space is wasted to the notification bar just to notify you that it's ready for action.

Hang on, ViperX or ViperXL? You have the Evita, if you flash ViperX you'll brick your phone.
You need to remember your phone IS NOT the HTC One X, it's the HTC One XL / AT&T One X.

Were you on an old version of TWRP? Because TWRP 2.5 was known to always fail flashing ViperXL and other ROMs (CleanROM and others). More recent versions of TWRP (2.6) work fine. So it may have been the fact that you had to re-install TWRP that made the difference.

S-OFF!

You can lock and unlock or even relock your bootloader. It's just htc's security. And also flash ruu.

Edited, link updated.
Sent from my Evita.

first i use this solution :
There's your problem, you need error 92. When you get error 99 you need to force a reboot to bootloader by holding volume down and power then start again (without the adb reboot bootloader command because you're already in bootloader). Now you should get error 92.
and it's not work:crying::crying::crying::crying:
and i use this way :
Ok folks thanks to c5satelite and other helpful folks at S OFF PARTY AND IRC we figured out how to fix this whole "error 99" shenanigans.
Step 1. Download the latest stockish ROM (I used Viper 3.2.3)
Step 2. Boot into bootloader and fastboot flash the kernel.. then reboot back into recovery
Step 3. Wipe /system and factory reset in TWRP
Step 4. Install rom in TWRP
Step 5. For *Viper Only* Don't wipe in Aroma, and uncheck reboot at the end.
Step 6. Reboot into bootloader from recovery (Don't boot into the ROM)
Step 7. Follow the instructions in the OP to a T ... read reread.. go get some coffee.. and try again.. hopefully you see Error 92 and not 99
This worked for me with ViperROM on hboot 2.14
Thank you to all the folks involved you guys are rockstars from Mars!
and it's not work:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
please any help
