[Q] RUU question - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

i just want to know how you use a ruu? i want to upgrade to 3.18 just dont know how to use the ruu

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.

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?

[Q] One X (evita) not booting CM10/10.1

I have an HTC One X sitting here that I bought from somebody. It came rooted with an unlocked bootloader running CleanRom. I downloaded CM, wiped like usual and flashed the rom. I can't get it to boot now, it endlessly shows the CM boot logo (but doesn't appear to be restarting) and I was wondering if there was anything special I had to do to get CM working.

If you are on hboot 1.14, and have flashed CM10, and not the boot.img, than yes, this almost certainly your problem.
It doesn't matter whether you flash boot.img over fastboot before or after the ROM.
Whats the diffence between the boot.img found in the 10.1 zipfile for htc one x and the one linked in download :
Boot.img (secure=0): http://d-h.st/vzF
Which one should I chose?

If you bootloader says Evita, stay here. If not, run away... far, far away and never come back.
If it is evita go to a cm10/10.1 thread, grab the correct version and pull the boot.img from it. NEVER google for anything, now that you have found this forum. That's one of the quickest ways to break your phone.

Thanks. I'm downloading it now from a reeeeaaaally slow connection so it'll take time to see if this works.
Also I've unlocked my bootloader but it also says "TAMPERED." Should I be worried about that?

Tampered is an indication that you unlocked the phone. You can remove it by RUUing after S-OFF if it bothers you.
I followed Myrder's advice and loaded CM 10 for evita and it got me back into my phone but the touchscreen isn't working now

If you have hboot 2.14 you need to downgrade your touchscreen firmware to get touchscreen working in AOSP ROMS
Sounds to me like you really need to do some reading. And really, reading should be done before attempting any of the things you're doing to your phone. You're lucky you haven't bricked it.
Sent from my Evita using XDA Premium
I'm kind of in a chicken before the egg situation. I found the files and commands needed to downgrade my touchscreen, however I think this requires the phone to have usb debugging on, which I can't select because the touchscreen doesn't work.
If that's not necessary because it's all in fastboot anyway, then I have to figure out why I'm getting a "remote 99 unknown fail" and a "status read fail too many links" error message when I try to run the commands for S-OFF and touchscreen downgrade in bootloader.

[Q] unable to revert to stock

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?

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.

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.

Problem when installing Cm 10.1 based roms

I didn't have this problem before.But now everytime i flash a cm rom,it flashes with no problems but when it finishes flashing and i reboot,it gets stuck on the htc logo,then reboots and does the same and the same all over again till the battery dies.I tried getting on recovery mode/bootloader but it doesnt seem to work.It's kinda as if the buttons didn't work.This happened to me already 2 days ago and fixed it,but had to wait till the battery died,then connect to pc,that way my phone was somehow reconized and i was able to adb(even though i wasn't on recovery or bootloader,just plugged to the pc)
what is causing this problem with cm roms?what should i do?
Do I need to downgrade/upgrade my hboot or something?
Thank you guys,and sorry for my english.

This is the 3.18 RUU, it'll also update your hboot to the latest (2.14), so you don't need to do that manually:
http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_..._10.130.32.34_release_signed_With_Partial.exe
You will need to s-off first though, here's the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155071
So flash a Sense ROM like MagioRom Sense 5, Viper, Hatka, Cleanrom, or one of the stock Sense ROMs. Then get s-off using the method I linked to above. Then run the RUU. Then you should be good to go.

[Q] Post root unable to access phone through ADB

AT&T HOX from Android 4.2.1, with 3.18 firmware. Attempting to get to CM 10.1
Rooted and flashed TWRP via http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41830252&postcount=201
Moved on to Facepalm S-off http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155071, was getting error 99.
Used the Viper solution from ChongoDroid on page 17 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38186473&postcount=163 using viper from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2087443
Install Viper from TWRP, Viper install stops at 0.00%, will not progress. Hard restart via power button battery remove sim, attempted s-off again. At some point I ended up getting the correct error 92. Success! Run 'fastboot oem boot', get list of errors, wait for boot into Android. Boot stops at white HTC splash screen, android will not boot.
Panic, hard restart back into bootloader, and this is where things go hazy (it was 5 in the morning by now). At this point I'm sure I put in some commands I should not have via adb (don't remember which ones), and did a factory reset via hboot. Recovery now brings me back into the bootloader. Bootloader shows *** TAMPERED ***, ***RELOCKED *** and *** Security Warning ***. I'm still S-ON with hboot 2.14.0000.
When in fastboot, my phone will not list via 'adb devices'. FAQ Q16 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2136172) says if I did a factory reset in hboot, my SD mem is wiped and i need to format it from device manager. Device Manager shows my phone as Android USB Devices > My HTC and options are Update Driver Software..., Disable, and Uninstall. Updating drivers gives me a drivers up to date notice. No option to format the SD
Word is that if it turns on, it isn't bricked, but if I can't get my adb to recognize my phone, what is there that I can do to fix it? I'm on 64 bit Windows 7.
alright, first off, you flashed a ROM for the international quad core One X and you're lucky not to have bricked your phone. Secondly, what you're gonna need to do is run the 3.18 ruu and restore your phone to factory settings with that. That's the only way to recover from factory reset in bootloader. Before you do, you need to be S-Off. Which you are, correct?
Edit: re-reading this, it appears you're not s-off. I'm gonna need to call in some help here because 3.18 ruu with SuperCID will brick you, but I don't think you can use a lower RUU since you're s-on. Anyone know what to do? If you are s-off and I just misread your post, then go ahead and run the ruu.
If it turns on, there's always a way to fix it!
Adb requires an os to work, since you can't boot to your os, no Adb
That being said, in bootloader, you should be able to access your phone with fastboot. Boot to bootloader/fastboot with your phone plugged in to your pc.
Do: fastboot devices and confirm that fastboot commands reach your phone, then we will move on to the next step.

Correct, I am still s-off, and 'adb devices' gives an empty list, and does not list my phone. I cannot send commands to my phone via adb commands.
You just said in your first post you're still s-on......

Yes, sorry. I realized my mistake as soon as I posted, but since I'm a new member I can only edit or reply every 5 minutes.
Yes, I am S-ON. S-ON, not S-OFF.
And aha, yes. 'fastboot devices' does list my phone.
Good good. So first you'll want to unlock your bootloader again since it's relocked. Just flash the unlock_code.bin or whatever it's called again that you previously used.
Sometimes if you're relocked it does the unlock process like it's going to unlock but then leaves you relocked. If this happens press and hold power to simulate a battery pull and try again. It should work eventually. Might take several tries.

You should be able to S-OFF with viperxl without any problems just by flashing viperxl and following the S-OFF thread right after.
So ViperXL finally finished downloading, and I've sent the command to push the .zip to /sdcard in prep to install it with TWRP, but it's been stuck there for 15+ minutes. Should I be worried? Should I restart?

Return to stock

Guys
I have to return to stock so that i can my phone back to HTC for factory work. It is not going back to TMOB.
With all that i have done i want to make sure i follow the steps and do everything.
I currently have upgraded to the latest firmware 3.14 and have HBOOT 2.15.0000. I'm S-OFF with Super CID.
what do i need to un-do in order to return to stock?
Can i simply flash a stock RUU and relock or do i need to put TMOB CID back on, go to S-ON, etc?
all help is appreciated.

HTC is shipping me back my phone but i'm curious.
what are the odds that they repaired my version vs just sending me a refurb device?

Unlock/Root using Hasoon's AIO tool
if you don't mind answering, why exactly do you want to SuperCID/S-OFF?
I want to install the latest kernel and run cm10.1

For that you need unlocked bootloader, custom recovery and root. No S-OFF/SuperCID needed.
In fact, largely, some folks have reported bricks running CM10.2 (4.3) with S-OFF.
