Is it possible to roll back my HTC One X evita to JB 4.0.4? I updated to JB 4.1.1 via RUU and have since unlocked the bootloader and s-off. My work email is on Exchange and when I enable encryption, the One X can't finish and then locks. Tried many times and downloaded many variation of 4.1.1 and even tried 4.1.2 custom ROMs. They ALL do the same thing. However, with stock 4.0.4, this worked just fine. I'd appreciate any help with getting me roll back to 4.0.4.
Thanks!!!
Yeah just run an old ruu.
Though, if your talking about encrypting your device, it won't work.

Thanks!! Are you saying to download the official AT&T RUU and reinstall??
Not sure what you mean by "After unlock encryption breaks"?? Can you provide more details??
I do know that when i first got the phone, with 4.0.4 I was able to sync with company Exchange server which required encryption to be enabled and it worked fine and I was getting all emails...
Thank You!

OK. I wasn't sure if you meant that or encrypting the device. Yeah just download and run the older ruu to go back to 4.04 but I believe viper with exchange mail mod should work as well. I think the exchange mail mod might be downloadable by itself in the mods section of the resource compilation thread stickied in the android dev section.
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
Oh, interesting. Are you referring to the ViperXL ROM? You think with this I can get around the encryption problem that I've been experiencing?? If at all possible, I would obviously like to stick with more recent JB builds.
Thank you for your assistance on this! I spent the entire weekend trying ROMs and searching for workarounds and am finally about to give up...

Ok people, Here is a couple of Questions for you. My AT&T One X is rooted with an unlocked bootloader however, I am running a stock Rom. I just started getting this AT&T message that is giving me the option to update my software. But! It gives me a choice of 1, 2, 3, 5, and 8 hours to remind me if I do not do it now. If I let the update happen, will it crash my phone? Will it take out my root? Permanently ?? I am afraid to update because I have been reading that AT&T has been trying to fix their back door.
Also, How can I stop the reminder from coming back???

I will do that. I have to get up early for work so I will be back on tomorrow night. One last thing though, you said to flash the Rom then the Kernal? I thought the Kernal came first.
Oh and what if I flash the Kernal without updating to the new Rom? The reason I'm asking is that My wife has the same phone However hers is Rooted but not BL un-locked. so if I flash just the Kernal would it work? Then, would it solve the AT&T reminders to upload their Rom?
Sorry for all the Questions, Gary
These kernals are recovery flashable. Meaning from CWM so ordet doesn't matter, technically the Rom will flash a kernel, but some users say one is better than another so just throwing out options. I don think there is a way to get rid.of.the notification unless you could.freeze the updater app with something like titanium backup, or go custom Rom route.

I want to thank you for the recomending this Rom it all went in beutifully! I ended up flashing my wifes phone also.
Today AT&T sent us messages that stated that there would be no more reminders and that if we did not choose to update they would update anyway. So I shut down the phones until I got off work and took out our access cards then turned off Wi-Fi. Finnally when I could this afternoon I started flashing.
Nice, I'm glad it worked out for you. CleanROM lite is nice too, if you want a leaner Rom.

I have flashed two custom ROMs now and both have been glitchy and slow. (stuttering, freezes, FCs, etc)
I found my original nandroid from just barely post unlock/root, and restored it. I'm on 1.7x and would like to stay that way if at all possible.
Does anyone know what to freeze in TiBa in order to get this to stop? I just want to stay on stock/rooted for right now.

Try cleanrom now, you need to give it a day to build up caches, but it was rebuilt on a more stable Rom.

So if I have 1.73 rooted with bootloader unlocked. Can i just install clean rom to update to 1.85? or do i first have to update? If i have to update first is it better to use the Peter's guide post or can i just use bootkeeper and to the ota update?

Anyone figured out a way to remove HTCLinkify on the new rom? The old method doesn't seem to work.
Are you rooted? You should be able to with an app like Root Explorer, Rom Toolbox, or Titanium Backup.

Yep but when you remove it all links stop working. On 1.85 there was a setting in build.prop that needed change. It no longer works on 2.2

The old hack is not working anymore, at least I could not get it to work, I even tried adding the second extra line to the build prop. That sucks! Especially when just about all the other mods are working. Friggin apple!
I was planning to move to the rooted stock 2.20, but I won't move from 1.85 until there is a fix for this nonsense.

I think the build prop edit will still work on any rom without the new hboot. Which is anything not the OTA or RUU. I would verify that but I think that's correct.
How do I know if it is removed?
One way is to go to settings and see if there is an App Associations menu item. Another is to email yourself a YouTube link, And when you click the link when you receive the email, if it asks you which application you'd like to use, then great success.

I'm on the 2.20 stock rooted rom and the build.prop edits do not disable linkify. I used to do it the same way on 1.85/1.89/etc and it worked fine on those, but does not on 2.20.

Not sure what I'm doing right or wrong but I have not seen Linkify come back on any rom after the first time I removed it. I'm currently running stock 2.2 with no hotspot hack, generic icons, no EQS, and the Sense 4.5 camera. I never wipe 'system' when flashing new roms either. Not sure if any of this could be a reason but I'm just trying to help.

Removing the apk just means you can't change the app associations. It doesn't fix the inherent issue, which is that we want a menu to pop up and give us options for what to do when we touch a link.
Previous to 2.20, all the AT&T base roms could be fixed by adding one line to build.prop and changing one other. This doesn't work any longer.
Well,
The link that I posted on the previous page solved that for me.
I have an apps associations on Settings, and when I click on a link on gmail it asks me if I want to open it with Chrome or the stock browser.
The thing is there are 2 entries in the build.prop for 'ro.da1.enable=true'
one at the top and another one on the bottom of the file.
I tried the method you just mentioned and it still doesn't work.
Can someone please tell me if I can your this RUU for my HOS CID:HTC__038 (India make). I want to go to stock in order to update to 4.0.4 but dont have a back up. Please help!

I guess the same will happen with the Asian RUU.
Why cant we change CID inside the RUU?

Thats ok. Once I get the nandroid I will be able to play along with it i guess. I tries installed the CID__044 but it got stuck in the middle as it always does for the wrong version ones. I dont see why it has not been possible to tweak the RUU to be fooled into feeling it is a different CID and not the other way round. Like change the CID code for the RUU. Just a random thought.

Well If you wanna install TD its simple. Make a backup of your present system. But SAVE A COPY OF IT ON YOU PC, it will in you TWRP folder. This is where I went wrong. After upgrading ROM I got bootloop. Just restarted the phone to recovery and the SD card got locked. In order to unblock the SD card had to reformat and kaput!! I know there are ways to fix the issue I told earlier but chances of hard-bricking becomes high. This will be simpler! remember to back up the entire phone on PC before messing with ROMS. :silly:
So ya, TD is safe and stable. If you already on 4.0.4 go for TD v4. else you will have to start from v2 and move your way up!. if you need more help just post back.
Happy to help.
PS: Do you have a backup of you older version of stock. If possible can you upload whatever stock you have. I will PM you my public dropbox address if you need it!
That's the thing... since there was no India ruu i never tried to mess with the roms.... Have been on stock always.... The only reason I want trick droid is for Google now... But won't if there is a chance that I may not be able to get back to stock plus I'm fed up of restoring apps and data from my previous phone every time I change ROMs

Well I have managed to screw more than once while trying to install ROMs and the TWRP backups have always delivered. Not once have I had a problem. So if you follow the steps the way I mentioned I believe you wont be sorry. Just keep a backup outside the phone. Something people dont mention while installing ROMs!!
Plus google now is completely pathetic if you ask me. havent used it once and had to revert back to normal google as it kept popping things without need!! Guess its more guess for people always on the move.

Well you are on stock as long as you don't install a custom ROM! Using a custom recovery will not kill your OTAs so just Unlock bootloader using HASOON's Method. I think it is the easiest. you could try adb if you are comfortable with it. Use goomanager to get TWRP. any other method will be a lot more complex. then have all the rooted privileges without loosing stock. Just make sure to lock bootloader before getting an OTA. thats all.
PS: The above it just speculation from my own reading through the forums. I was on a rooted stock system for a while and it worked fine. Theoretically what I have mentioned should work but post it on some of the dev forums to get a proper reply!
i was updating to 4.3 using this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2573479 but as i was rushing ive ended up locking my bootloader with twrp and now i cant enter recovery at all or even reunlock my bootloader to try and fix this, is there anyone that can help me with this "/

I've tried myself and I ended up saying that I have something modded or something from the ota download. I finish downloading the ota for sense 5.5 and I've tried to lock the hboot and unlocked. Same results no matter what. I think it's the missing apps. The calculator and some others. Just download the stock rooted. You'll end up rooting the phone anyways. What is the point of that?
I did manage to download the first 16mb "pre-update" but every time I go to check for updates it won't do anything at all. I've tried restarting and even changed between a few apns and nothing helps? Ive seen people having this problem but no solutions. Can anyone help me?

Either way, you're gonna have to download it somehow. The RUU is the easiest way. If you ever want to modify your phone though it must be done before taking this update because the current exploit has been patched in the update. You'll get a much better experience on a custom ROM but that's entirely up to you.

Could be. Delete it and try to check for the update again.
I tried that and deleting the data on the Google services framework too, got nothing. So I guess this weekend I'll do the ruu.
