[Q] Bricked my HTC Desire X

So I was trying to flash this ROM and after doing the first step, it got bricked. I cannot find a proper RUU, since I have hboot 1.25.0002 radio 1.15.40.04. I would love it if anyone could help me out.
You flashed an ICS rom on a JB hboot?
Can you not boot into recovery again?

Yes, he has to edit updater-script and change 25/26/27 numbers to 24/25/26.

Follow this (start at step 4): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2213663
It will work for the rom you want too, and don't forget to flash boot in fastboot too

No, open Half-Sense.zip with 7Zip and open /META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script and edit with Notepad++ number I said.
Then repack all.

Really? Will it work with the whole boot.img thing? I'm kinda new to all of this.

Yep.

It will work, as you're changing the mountpoints in updater-script to be able to flash an ICS ROM on JB hboot. But you will have to flash an ICS kernel (use the one attached to the ROM thread).
EDIT: You have been faster, xpirt...

Well something just hit me like a train. How would I go about going down from JB to ICS? Forgot about the candy names and their abbreviations. Sorry for all the questions, I'm a noob at the whole android rom scene.

After you changed the numbers and flashed the attached boot.img you are on ICS (4.0).
To go back to JB (4.1) is just flashing a JB rom and the boot.img attached in the rom thread
After a few struggles, it did not work and it's still bricked :crying:

Since you're new and not familiar with all this thing, why don't you first unbrick your device by installing a JB ROM as I assume you don't make a nandroid backup of your JB ROM.
Before that, which recovery that you installed ? Not sure, download and install one from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2099513
Use v2.5.0.0 RC1.0 (For JB)
Then download this ROM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2239511 and install it.
Once your device is up and running again ... then you can try other ROM (again).

Well I did do a nandroid backup actually, I have tried it and it didn't work.
Before the brick I was using Paranoid Android
Aaaaand as typical Murphy's law, I just got it working. I had to change two more lines of code. Thank you very much everyone, for everything. This community is awesome.
