Hi all, I recently rooted my Magic using this guide (http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Magic_Rooting) and installed both Chinese and Japanese IMEs shown here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=512530).
All was fine until I noticed the battery and credits (I'm on prepaid => no unlimited network usage) draining faster than usual as the phone desperately tries to download the official system updates and fails.
So...
Is there a way to receive system updates while rooted and keeping the two input methods?
If not, is there anywhere to disable auto update and download the updates manually? The android.clients.google link = 404.
Assuming that I found and downloaded the latest update, will my phone try to download repeatedly again when there's a newer update later?
Or if nothing above is possible, is there a way to unroot the phone back to original everything? I've searched everywhere but have only been able to find Dream/G1 unrooting guides.
This doesn't seem to work for me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3846668
Here's what's under fastboot:

Hi,
I am a brand new member and have come in search of some help here.
I recently purchased HTC One XL from ebay and this was from a Hong Kong seller. I was very happy receive this phone and started to play around with the device. This device is 2 weeks old now.
When I checked the software version details on this phone, I found that it is the old firmware on the device and I encountered 2 problems already:
1. Sound is very feable even if I put the volume to its maximum level. It feels as a distant sound in a quiet room.
2. Whenever I use any app and come out of it, the home screen takes a long time to load (5-7 seconds! That feels eternity!!)
Now I tried contacting the HTC Folks over in Australia as well as in Hong Kong and they asked me to Hard Reset the phone. This resolved one of the issue of the home screen taking a long to load. But the sound issue still persists.
The fella from Hong Kong then told me to check the software version on the phone, and when I checked, he/she said that I am running on a old version of the software. And I cannot update the phone.
Can anyone please help me with this?
The details about my phone software:
1.77.708.2
File Timestamp: 18/04/12
Publically Seen: 02/05/12
Android: 4.0.3

adsp: 25.1.0.32.0405
This matches exactly in the description in the thread here in XDA-Developers forum here
I also see that the latest version listed here matches with what the HTC Hong Kong person told me:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10:26:04 [Yan Chung] :
I see. But the offical version should be Android™4.1 with HTC Sense 4+, software version:3.17.708.5. So you phone is not an offical version.

Also, I tried to go to the recovery screen by pressing the Volume Down key and the Power key and here is what I see:

Well, You can install a RUU.
Noteworthy you are supetcid with soff. As already said flash a ruu.
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda app-developers app
Note, if you have a custom recovery installed, OTA will fail.
If the phone is rooted and S-off, why install OTA at all? There are newer and better stock-ish ROMs that you can just flash from custom recovery.
In any case, I don't think firmware will fix your sound issue. Its worth a try to install a different ROM. But it may also be a hardware problem.
Hi,
Wow what a wonderful place. Thank you all, you wonderful people out here.
@redpoint73- can you please help me with the link of where to get better ROM for my device? And the procedure to install.
PS: I have a prior experience of flashing a custom ROM from Cyanogenmod for my Motorola Cliq XT. So that should essentially be same.
Also, to mention here, when I reboot to recovery mode, I could see Clockwork Mod Recovery already present. And using the Backup option of the recovery, I have already taken a full backup of the device, just in case..
I am looking forward to a better ROM for this device. Hope someone helps with some options.
Also, there were some few terms those are new to me like S-Off, SuperCID, don't bother to explain but one help- Is my phone ready to be flashed with a custom ROM or RUU ?
Do let me know?
To all wonderful people out here.
Best Regards,
Saabir

If you used Clockworkmod on your previous phone, its no different on the One XL. Just download the ROM either direct to the phone, or transfer from your PC to the phone. Then boot into recovery. Factory reset (in recovery only, not in bootloader) wipe cache, wipe Dalvik, select the ROM, and flash it. Reboot and enjoy.
But I would also look at the CWM version, and post it here. There was an older, unofficial port that caused some serious issues for some folks. But the "official" supported version is just great.
Good I need your help my HTC ONE S S4 T-mobile. We install a ruu MaximusHD 10 months ago Android 4.2.2 Sense 5 but I many errors like:
I do not mean link connected to HTC.
I do not grab any Wi-Fi connections
No serves Hotspot.
It has now very short tlf Memory applications and files like photos, images,
When I try to open the recovery is I restarted the phone
I need your urgent assistance this has me very worried
My HTC One S is T-Mobile's 4G Android

Do a factory reset,that will get MaximusHD at the point after flashing it. Or find latest RUU for your carier or phone version and flash it to get back to stock
