So I recently installed the stock Jelly bean update that was pulled from OTA, and then I tried to go back to ICS. I used the droid razr utility (1.82), and everything worked except flashing boot.img. It said something like infopreflash validation failure. Could anybody help me with this problem? Thanks.
There is no going back from JB to ICS.

You need to wait til Motorola releases the fastboot images
But if there was an unlocked bootloader, then I could flash a boot image, am I right?

Yes, there are 3 ways
1. Softwate/OTA update from HTC (Officially)
2. S-OFF your Desire X and use a modified P66IMG.zip to manually flash hboot update.
3. Use an RUU for Hboot update (if available)
Regards
Yasir
As far as i know option two (S-OFF) isn't possible for Desire X as of yet, and option three (a JB RUU) hasen't been released.
So we're just left with option one. Do i miss something?

You can only update hboot via OTA update, and for that, you need stock Rom, like it was before rooting, and stock recovery. Then you'll get the hboot update to 1.24 and then 1.25 hopefully.

s-off involves high risk of bricking the device thats why devs stay from it and its very hard to attain s-off as it requires lot of hardware knowledge.. leavin aside some fancy mods, we can still do alot of development without s-off
S-OFF
ohok didnt realise it was that hard to do also when a device is bricked due to this does that mean using a JTAG recovery thing, (I saw one of the guys in the elegancia rom post meantion this) would not recover a bricked phone ?

jtag should allways be able to recover any bricked device (thats kinda point of using it)
oohk just got the idea that it didnt always work although the JTAG thing I was looking at did several things like S-OFF supercid etc

You're not stupid, just not reading much.
Yes, you need a stock ROM with everything intact (not even a single file is missing).

@ckpv5.
I recently tried an experiment. My bro Huawei phone got ota but as he had modified system apps, the ota failed. His ota also had firmware and hboot update (89mb)
I opened the ota zip, in updater script removed all assert checks, and then flashed ota, and it completed, even his firmware and hboot got updated. Have we ever tried fooling HTC stock recovery ?

This is a valid OTA for the amaze, however it expects you to have a rom already on your device as it is looking for the build.prop to verify that you are installing the rom on a "RUBY" and not another device.

The rom "ota" that you tried to install would work if you flash any of the current roms, or possibly one of the newer OTA's released from march of this year.
Do as Ravike14 said and download one of the roms from the link he provided you.
Also, make sure you have updated your firmware to ICS, if not you cannot flash any ICS roms or jellybean roms!
Good luck

has anybody do this method?
Are in S-off big new features or what can I make more with S-off?
FAExZ
First of all: Nobody has done it yet as much as I know. And: With S-Off you unlock nand partition, that means you are able to customize radio and hboot and can flash kernels and recoverys via recovery and don't need a PC for that. But for now it isn't possible for us without special hardware, in this case jtag...
I can't post or leave a comment in development thread cause I'm a "newer member" (lower than 10 posts) so I create a thread in this category.
Consider my post cause it could help us to reach S-OFF.
Does Firewater S-OFF method help us?
I think yes cause it talks about "qualcomm-based" devices. Anyone tried it? I will try in a few hours!
Tell me or consider this post.
Great find.
Unfortunately closed-source but supposedly works on all Qualcomm-based HTC devices. In theory it should work on our device. Please let us know if you achieve S-OFF without the boot vibrations that happens with Rumrunner S-OFF: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2630531

Like you can split an hdd in partitions and set them a size, name etc. also android has its partitions to work on: one for bootloader, one for kernel, one for system, etc.
Changing the size it means you can set to which partition you want custom size, for ex. you can change /system partition size to 1mb and you will not be never able to boot a rom, for example..

It has to be done outside the phone on a PC. You have to extract the hboot, modify the image, and flash it back to the phone. Back at my old phone, the HTC Aria, we got someone in our forums who wrote a tool for that. But I doubt that it'll be much use for us. For the HTC Aria, it was important to get CM greater or equal 9 running because system partition was too small.
