i've been messing around with roms trying to see if there was any different results to my network going to sleep and all my roms do the same thing. When i lock my screen ten minutes later i get a X through my cell network as if it was disconnected and it is. Upon unlocking the screen my phone says "prepairing internal storage" then my network is back up. I have turned off the options that say sleep data connection when screen is locked and the other one that says sleep data connection after long periods of no use/idle.
S-Off
Bootloader unlocked
TWRP 2.6
superSU installed
Roms tried scotts clean rom 7 (4.2.2 JB sense 5) Viper rom same os and sense 5
Tried a couple 4.4 roms and they fail to install during recovery
Could it be a problem with a loose SIM tray? Mine used to do that back in July, and HTC sent me a SIM tray for free

Doubt it, its never done this when i was using stock rom past few days been using custom roms and it started doing this right away. Thinking maybe i used tool/s intended for the xl to unlock my phone, or its some where in the software thats bugged out cause i did some thing wrong. Although every thing seems to be working fast and cleanly except my cell network shutting off when i lock the screen. Being a noob just hoping some one keys up and tells me how to fix this like flash a diff radio version or some thing.
This is probably TMI but this is what the phone reports to me under info

I tried to flash that kernel with both roms i am using and it errors and won't go through, also the firmware aka hboot is 2.14 i believe on my device for the life of me can't find a download of a hboot for my device. Found a thread stating i need my cid to lookup proper firmware for my device but isn't my cid all 1s now from being unlocked? Any way i saw yet another post that said to turn my data connection off and on then turn data roaming on then back off, followed by a reboot this actually seemed to fix my cell network dropping but!!!.... lol now my wifi won't enable and the wifi is marked with "ERROR" i'm going nuts maybe i screwed all this up by originally not having S-OFF or some thing.
Oh and i tried the fix wifi app recommended here in the forums and the app can't start the wifi just says its stuck.

ooo says S-ON and it is hboot 2.14.0000
So if i manage to turn S-OFF i should be able to flash beastmode? Not sure why the tool i have didn't work for the S-OFF function.
Beastmode is OK for S On devices. It should fix the problems you mentioned.
It sounds like you have lots of reading to do. In general, you shouldn't rely on tools and one click methods. Know the processes that they are actually performing.

Thread cleaned and let's stay on topic from here thanks guys
No. Contact HTC for a sim card tray. That's exactly what it sounds like. I got mine and never lost connection again. But I do haft a say that u do need a good kernel when it comes viper xl ROM.
Chris B.
While that is true in some cases of signal problems, it isn't in this case. Changing the SIM tray won't stop the problem from happening as this isn't a physical problem. The phone is shutting down the cell connection when it's in sleep mode and is unable to initiate a connection again when it's woken. This is a case of mismatched firmware that's common on every single Sense 5 Android 4.2.2 ROM. The solution is to upgrade to the firmware package (2.15) that was shipped with the Sense 5 update and was supposed to be used in conjunction with the ROM for proper operation. Another option is to flash the Beastmode kernel. Please make sure you're giving the right advice.

Its not a matter of"advice" the sim card tray Is a known issue with the one x. It was a suggestion...not advice. Lol. I figured that hed like to be made aware of the tray issue. I already know Abiut the kernel, and yes that was a fix. Just thought i would share the info!
Sent from my Desire HD using xda app-developers app
Yeah ok, but my point was that in this case it's irrelevant because that isn't the cause of the problems. In fairness your first word was "no", in order to disagree with the previous correct solutions that were given.
The SIM tray isn't "exactly what it sounds like" at all. You hadn't considered the fact that the signal is lost during periods where the phone is sleeping. If it was the SIM tray that was the problem the phone would be losing signal at any random time, not confined to sleep periods.
I'm all for sharing fixes and advice, but the fix you mentioned is completely irrelevant to the problem that this thread is discussing. Imagine the OP decides to take your advice instead of the correct advice: he contacts HTC, waits a week or two for a SIM tray, gets it, pops it in, and hey what do you know it's still losing signal during sleep periods. That's a week or two of having to put up with signal losses because someone shared a fix that wasn't relevant to his actual problem. Yes the symptoms are similar (generally speaking), but when you look harder at it the diagnosis is entirely different and therefore the solution is entirely different. I'm not trying to sound harsh, but this is after all a forum dedicated to helping people by giving them the correct fix to their problem.

That seems like a ridiculous distinction to say the least.
Its pretty clear (as timmaaa suggests) that if the problem arises after flashing a Sense 5 ROM, and wasn't present before; then its a result of the Sense 5 sleep function and radio incompatibility (fixed with 2.15 firmware of Beastmode kernel).
So if i have TWRP 2.6 and S-ON is not a issue for flashing beastmode kernel how come it fails during flash?
WinDroid HTC One XL Toolkit 1.1 wants me to flash stock ruu as part of S-OFF process.
Below is what i believe to be the stock rom for the AT&T One X got the link from you guys at XDA
OTA_EVITA_UL_JB_45_S_Cingular_US_3.18.502.6_0.24p.32.09.06_10.130.32.34_release_3061616bcty3drvawwo01k.zip
Oh and what version of beastmode should i be using i have 3.0 and 3.5 reloaded and i can't find any install instructions to tell me if it has its own installer or i can use TWRP
The most important thing I have to say right now is do not run the RUU yet! If you have SuperCID (which I'm guessing you do) you will definitely brick your phone, we don't want that. There's a bug with the jb RUU that causes it to fail halfway through when it sees you have SuperCID, basically SuperCID + s-on + jb RUU = brick. So check your CID first using this fastboot command:
Code:
fastboot oem readied
If it comes back as 11111111 or 22222222 you have SuperCID. Post the result here anyway.
At this point your best and easiest option is just to get s-off so you can update to the 2.15 firmware package. The Beastmode kernel is s-on friendly but plenty of folks have had trouble installing it. There are two s-off methods for our device, Facepalm and Rumrunner. I'd suggest you try the Rumrunner method, it's brand new and I haven't personally tried it because I'm already s-off but it looks like a piece of cake to get done. Facepalm can be a bit tricky. You'll find a thread started by me in our general section for the Rumrunner s-off method. Once you have s-off you can update your firmware and you should have zero issues with Sense 5 ROMs after that. It also means you can run the jb RUU without bricking, SuperCID + s-off + jb RUU = no worries. Plus you no longer need to flash the boot.img from a ROM/kernel with fastboot and you have s-off. There are other advantages to having s-off but those are the main ones.

Do people not bother reading through the thread (at least the last few pages) for things they flash anymore? I do this before flashing just about anything, as it gives a good indicator of what issues others may have had, and the solutions.
This is a somewhat known/common issue. Apparently the solution is to flash Beastmode 2 first, than 3/3.5.
Don't use the Windroid toolkit, as I stated above you'll brick if you RUU, plus you definitely do not need to run an RUU to get s-off. I'm not sure why it's asking you to do that. Those toolkits are nice and easy and all that but in my opinion they're bad news. They allow users to get things done very easily, but the problem is they completely remove the learning aspect of the whole procedure. Trust me, it's better to learn how to do this manually with fastboot and adb, you gain a much better understanding of Android by doing things manually, and the day will come when you need that knowledge to recover from some mishap.

Its Ubuntu haha.. Pretty awesome setup I use 12.04... If you decide to use it, install
64bit just in case you decide to try building from source.... I agree with the above answer as well.. You can not flash an ruu that is below your hboot..

Easier to flash custom roms? I flash roms the same way on all my devices - in recovery. The only difference with the S is i have to spend 5sec on typing "fastboot flash boot boot.img" before first boot up. Yea, hard stuff that

Most wifi issues revolve around t-mobile phones I believe. It often relates to the 2.35 update. Others did not have these issues.
You can also solve via superCID and flash another RUU (that has a similar level of bootloader).
But yes, a bootloader downgrade will solve this, since then you can flash other wifi partitions (even the Jelly Bean ones).
Alternatively you can wait for the OTA upgrade to Jellybean.

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.

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.
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

Well something is different because I cannot install ViperX Because the kernal difference.
What are your bootloader details?
PS. At&t one x = htc one xl.

Nothing is different you are just doing it wrong. I'm not trying to start an argument just trying to inform you.

*** tampered ***
*** unlocked ***
evita pvt ship s-off rl
cid-11111111
hboot-1.14.0002
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.

I'm very sorry if I offended you or any one.
I installed the RUU My TWRP was removed, but I'm still Unlocked, SuperCID and my S-OFF are still on, and my kernal version says 3.4.10-g310e8f1

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.

Ok it looks like you're all good then. You can flash TWRP again now and install a custom ROM if you want to.

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.
Only ever download ROMs from our device forum which is here:

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.
Pls help me..
I have no sound in my HTC one xl at&t..not in call or notifications or speaker..even I can't play music..I have tried to change different Rom but still no sound..
I'm s-off , hboot 1.11 running on MagioRom R4
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium
What have you done to troubleshoot it? Try running an RUU, if the problem with sound still occurs it's a hardware issue, if not it was a software issue.

Thanks for reply..which RUU i need to use..?do i need to relock my bootloader..?sorry i am new to htc one x..
If you're s-off and SuperCID you can use any RUU, you don't need to lock your bootloader.

Im having this same issue. It started for me after flashing the 5.08 firmware on both sense and aosp roms. I RUU'd back to 3.14 and its still happening but it seems much more intermittent now. Of course my phone has been through hell so I'm not surprised that its having hardware issues.

Same here, did anyone find a solution? I went back and RUUed the JB release, still no sound. It recognizes when I put in the headphones, idk if that helps. When I got to youtube, the video doesnt come on and it says touch to retry, same with any audio programs.
If you have no sound after an RUU you must likely have a hardware problem and will need it to be physically repaired.

Yeah and the logcat will reflect the hardware failure. I don't know about you but I had also lost audio on phone calls. So I had to get a new phone. For what it's worth it worked a little better on kitkat but that means it would work for about 20mins before crapping out as opposed to 10.

Could I identify what part is not working with logcat (never used it) and replace it myself? or is all lost?
Same here but i lock my bootloader and now it's work fine
the problem comes when u install many many of custom ROM's
just flash RUU and then re-lock your bootloader
