[Q] Need verification...lots - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

GOod night. My main issue is the sheer number of ppl with the HTC OneXL in this forum. Lot of posts i see say 'sent from my HTC OneXL'..i read something on this very site telling me that when downloading ROMs or anything really for a device, make sure you get the correct files. This forum contains info on the AT&t and ROgers HTC OneX annddd the Telstra OneXL..the only real ROMs i am interested in would be the latest KitKat update from AT&T, CyanogenMod11 and MIUI. Ive got the necessary info on my device here. Ive already unlocked my bootloader, rooted, SuperCID. Root fully working with TWRP recovery. Still on the stock ROM. Im from the Virgin Islands, and with my HTC devices in the past as well as the Galaxy S4s, CyanogenMod ROMS always seemed to provide slightly worse WiFi performance in terms of distance. Also was a fan of CM from the Inspire4G due to its Torch app with its dual LEDs, utterly unchallenged on high-brightness, lol. Anyways, here are the specs on my current HTC OneX from AT&T:
Android vers. 4.0.4
Sense 4.0
Software # 2.20.502.7 710RD
SDK Level 4.23
Kernel - 3.0.8- 015 58-g7f75e5b

SMP PREEMPT
Baseband: 0.19as.32.09.11_2_10.105.32.25L
Build Number: 2.20.502.7 CL79936
My Bootloader Info:

HBOOT - 1.14.0002
RADIO - 0.19as.32.09 11_2

My questions basically are:
is there a CM11 ROM for the AT&T OneX?
yet possible to download the latest OTA for KitKat for the AT&T OneX?
Does my phone NEED to be updated to the 3.18RUU for either the official KitKAt from AT&T, MIUI or CM11 ROMS to function?
Thanks so much.

The att HTC one x and the HTC one XL are the exact same phones. Everything you find here will work on your phone

And yes, you have to run the 3.18 ruu, unlock your bootloader, achieve s-off, install a custom recovery, and install the Roms that you want.

my bootloader is already unlocked, s-off with TWRP installed. does this mean i can just run the RUU?

gotcha. anything i need to do with SuperUser prior to this? i expect to have a stock recovery after this, but what of bootloader lock status, s-off, root and superCID status afterwards? promise this is the last question. just need 2 be sure so i know if i can root the phone with the same 3.0.1 Evita All-In-One toolit. thanks in advance bro.

All the answers to your questions are in that link I posted.
Yes you will have a stock recovery after the RUU. You will need to flash TWRP or CWM recovery in fastboot mode (bootloader mode) after running the RUU.
You will need to enter your recovery after you flash it and flash SuperSU (or equivalent) to root the Rom.
Your phone will remain unlocked, SuperCID, and S-Off after running the RUU.
As for the toolkit, you can do these things without it. A tool kit at this point is a crutch. You a far enough along now that you should understand how these things work. (OK. off soapbox now.)
Read through the link I posted. I detailed all the info you need to be successful. Good luck.

Agreed. Forget the toolbox, it's a crutch and is totally unnecessary. If you need instruction on flashing a recovery, installing a ROM, among other things, have a look at my How-To Guide For Beginners thread in my signature. You should also read the Evita FAQ thread in my signature.

Any of the radios in the radio thread are okay to flash on the EVITA. The Google map may be a good start, but only trial and error will tell you for sure which one is the best for you.
Any ROM but the stock AT&T ROM will let you turn off LTE in Settings. This is what I would recommend. What radio you use has no bearing on turning off LTE, if that is what you are asking.

question

ok, i am a experienced android flasher. i have been using cdma devices and my friend has a t-mobile sensation. he is jealous of my ics roms i have been running this weekend. on my cdma i just flash the rom after wiping. firmware updates are optional and they are generally one for all types. i keep seeing super cid and mid stuff having to do with firmware in the sensation dev section, and from what i have read u need special firmware to run the ics roms on his phone. but u have to choose the right firmware according to your mid or cid whatever that is. so if he is using a gsm t-mobile(usa) sensation what firmware do i need to get him?
he is s-off with clockwork recovery and we have flashed roms before i am just confused on the firmware requirements for these gsm phones.
i am the one who rooted his phone as well. i just don't want to f up his phone
thanks
btw i asked him for his current firmware version and he told me 4.0.1. he is going to come over tomorrow and we are going to try and get him on ics so any help is much appreciated
No 4.0.1 is the version of the Android OS he has on his device, it is not the firmware. If he has that as his OS version then he should have the 3.32 firmware as you have to have the 3.32 firmware for any 4.0.? ROM to boot.
CID stands for Carrier Identification, this is specific to each carrier. If the CID of the ROM does not match your device's CID, it will not flash to your device. If you Super CID your device, you can flash any stock ROM you want too. But CID is usually only relevant to stock ROM, although if the ROM is based on a stock ROM you might have to have Super CID to flash it. Cid does not apply to ASOP or AOKP ROMs.
Pm coming your way
Sent from my Sensation using xda premium
Never heard of a 4.0.1 firmware
His cid should be supercid with 11111111
And his firmware should be 3.32, good luck.
I think he is on a sense 3.5 rom so the 4.0 must be his rom.thanks for the responses and pm. Starting to understand. Going to shoot for super cid if he comes over today

In setting, where does it say about Base 2.3x etc?

I'm new the phone and had spent a lot of time reading, still not understand yet. Hope some can guide me. I have US T-Mobile carrier HTC One S and currently rooted and unlocked BL. What I don't get is, how do I know what is my Base version or where to look for in setting? I know my radio since I flashed the EU ration as listed on my sig but I did not flash RUU.exe.

T-MobileUS HTC One S
Oh.. I'm using Unofficial AOKP JellyBean and there's no Software Info under setting--about.
not sure what you want
it should say 4.1.1 and your radio version
you won't see 2.31 etc
my question is how i know if i'm 2.31 etc? does it go by what radio version you flash?
for cm10 i believe so

[Q] Downgrade to Jbb to ICS

Hi friends,
i have a litte question i have HTC ONE AT&T and i live in costa rica, my htc don´t work correctly, no conection shared and no wifi and i have software version: 3.18.502.6 710RD official de at&t
it is possible to downgrade to version ics?????
Only if your phone is s-off you can check that in you bootloader
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
no it's not possible.
Connection sharing is blocked on AT&T Software as per AT&T. As for Wifi, not sure why that wouldn't be working... most likely not related to software anyway so downgrading wouldn't fix it... You can try rerunning the 3.18 RUU, if the wifi not working is a software issue, that will fix it. If it's a hardware issue, it won't work no matter what software version you use.
*edit* jerry is right, I just assumed you were completely Stock.
thank you for you respond
information for the htc one x at&t is:
EVITA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.14.0000
RADIO-0.24p.32.09.06
OpenDSP-v34-1.0.45.1219

thant if possible root my htc one x for installing custom rom????
or not possible?
unfortunately not by traditional means.
Only via JTAG service. Typically costs about $50USD
*edit* I also feel like I should add that if you have to ask if 2.14 is rootable, you shouldn't bother rooting your phone.
then you can not do anything with my phone
know if at some point to have root access oy and I stayed with this system?

Not known at this point. I'm sure it's being worked on but AT&T locked 3.18 down hard.
ok thank you i waiting for this solution

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying but if you're asking if you should update if one comes out. Don't update unless you want to stay stock. Whenever an update comes out you have to wait for that update to become rootable if an exploit is found. Stock updates are a rooter's worst nightmare.

[Q] Update hboot and firmware?

After some extensive searching both in and out of XDA, I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for. So if the information has already been posted, please cut me some slack - I did do some leg work first before posting.
I am currently on hboot 1.09 and have s-off, running ViperXL (Sense based ROM). I was wanting to flash some of the new ROMs with the 3.4 kernel which all require 1.14 hboot and 3.18 firmware. While I was looking for instructions I did stumble into some threads where people have bricked their phones flashing the 3.18 firmware updates and etc so that gave me some cause for alarm.
Bottom line...I couldn't find any exact instructions on how to update the firmware and hboot with steps to insure I don't bork my phone. If anyone's got a link or care to help me out I'd appreciate it.
You're s-off so you should be fine. The cases where users have bricked their phones happened they were SuperCID and s-on and ran an RUU, bad idea.
Is your phone an att model? Or Rogers? Or an unlocked Hong Kong version?

[Q] Question: Possible to update HTC One firmware without S-OFF?

I swear I've read somewhere once that it is possible, though more tedious... but after hours of searching, I can no longer find the post I read that said I could do it and how to. I'm very new to Android, and 'somewhat' technical, but am nervous about going S-OFF and not entirely even sure my phone can be S-OFF, after finding countless posts saying I can't do S-OFF on the newer HTC One because of my version of HBOOT something something.
I'm preparing for Android Revolution HD v52.1 when it's released, which will have T-Mobile WiFi Calling implemented and am loving using a Custom ROM. If there's a way to update to the latest Firmware, that would be wonderful.
I have a Mac, but can switch to Windows if necessary using Parallels or BootCamp. Thank you in advance for any help provided.
T-Mobile HTC One 32GB purchased in December, 2013.
Phone: M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
Status: Rooted, Unlocked, TWRP v2.6.3.3
HBOOT: v1.55.0000
Kernel: 3.4.10-gfa33c1e
Radio: 4A.21.3263.03_10.38m.1157.04L
Current ROM: Android Revolution HD v31.6
I got some help in the Android Revolution HD IRC Chat room and found out that a newer tool, Firewater, is capable of putting HTC Ones into S-OFF and quite easily, so for anyone that needs the help, it worked on my HTC One with the newer HBOOT, etc... Here's the link: firewater-soff.com
