[Q] Rooted HTC Desire X software update problem - HTC Desire X

I am using a rooted HTC Desire X. Recently I received an update notification saying there is a software update. So after download the update, it cannot be installed. Is there any solution to this?
The software package is OTA_PROTO_U_ICS_40A_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.18.707.1-1.14.707.1_release_295253uus4cbfd6ubkm2gm.zip
Any one face the same problem?
My phone Bootloader still remain unlock.
I have tried to lock my Bootloader and install the package and it can't work.
Hope to get some solution from all expert here.
Thank you.

You have to flash the stock recovery and lock your bootloader, then you'll be able to install the update

For me it worked with stock recovery but with unlocked bootloader. Provider: T-Mobile Germany, OTA _1.18.111.1

Oh okay, didn't really try to do that :3 So didn't know

I don't have stock recovery. However I have download the stock kernel from HTC website. Will this help to flash back to stock?

I don't think so, but try that... Are you sure you don't have a stock recovery somewhere....

Guys I have looks like the similar problem.
I've successfully updated to 1.18.707.1 via OTA on rooted asian Desire X (HTC_044) (didn't knew that it was rooted just got it from pall and hit update when notification popped-up) but after that sound speaker on my phone stopped to work. Any suggestions how to fix that?

OTA can successfully get installed only if u hav stock recovery and oem locked.

[Q] from 2.1 to 2.2.2 stock, some yes/no questions

I currently have aria with 2.1 stock and I've rooted it using unrevoked.
phone details:
Liberty PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT 0.57.0000
radio 7.00.35.06
questions:
if I install the 2.2.2 update from HTC site, will it erase the "rooting"?
if yes, will I need to run alpharev after it for rooting?
Yes.
And yes.

thx and thx.
but it seems that the update from HTC site doesn't work on a rooted phone? maybe because of the clockworkmod recovery?

The 2.2.2 update gets rid of everything and changes the hboot. Then you need to do the alpharev thing.

It will work without any problem on a "rooted" phone. If you're having trouble, try toggling the "USB debugging" option in your ROM. If that doesn't help, try running the RUU while the phone is on the FASTBOOT screen.
using fastboot solved the problem.
I also coming to understand that using linux for any update is much more convenient.

Update notification received!

Mmm...I just got one of these for my girl just last week.
Unlocked boot loader...rooted...and then checked out that there was an update...
faaark...
...but I'm unsure if it's something to do with bootloader...or CWM...
maybe using stock recovery will be fine to do the update?

Re-flashing the stock recovery and re-locking the bootloader wasn't enough, at any rate.

Trying to flash the update ZIP from CWM didn't work either. Re-installing the stock RUU (after relocking the phone) seems to have worked on the other hand; the update took a while to install but is now churning along nicely. Of course, this means losing all of your data; I'm using "Ultimate Backup Tool" (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1844032) to mitigate some of the losses. It's not perfect, but it does help.
Well I m from India and I received the same update,
then I relocked my boatloader and unlocked it again then i flashed the stock recovery and the update was installed successfully ....
U can get the stock recovery from 25th post in thread

Like I said, that didn't work for me; instead of booting to recovery that dropped be back to the bootloader instead.

Earlier it didn't work me too but when I tried this recovery, it worked for me.
Other recoveries didn't work for me.

are there any changes in performances ?? or camera as stated??
and i guess just using the ruu and updating will work as theres a problem with rooting and not bootloaders ??

You could make a nandroid backup, flash RUU, install OTA update, (unlock bootloader again?), flash CWM and restore /data.
Just extract the ROM.zip from the RUUs available maybe that'l work? Or is there an hboot update?

Dear all
I have international htc amaze, i desperately wanted to get it updated to official ICS for that i contacted htc Philippine, they regretted to give an update on Singapore origin phone.
finally thought of rooting it and to flash CM 10.1 on it, i got it rooted by Hanson 2000 root kit. but when i installed a ROM on it, it keeps on rebooting i had to change the ROM and get back to stock ROM which is GB 2.3. but i definitely want to try it.
my phone specs
using 4 ext recovery with smart flash enabled.
phone is s-on.
i haven't done super CID.
i am afraid of doing s-off because it may brick my phone and for super CID i have read full thread i did not get what super CID is and is it necessary to super CID.
it is not like i am new to rooting i have done rooting on Samsung phones and i must say they are and something goes wrong u can always use Odin to get an stock back.
HTC its horrible
please comment and help

[Q] Official Update

Hi,
I got my official update through Wifi.
After downloading i tried to install it but the phone just rebooting and loading into recovery .
I locked the recovery and tried again, now its going to boot loader.
Current version: 1.17.401.1
Got Version :2.18.401.2
Please let me know what i need to do for installing the official update.
If u have unlocked bootloader and install CWM / TWRP Recovery then you cannot install the update, ever. Anyways, the plate is quite useless so forget it even came.

Hi all. I am on stock Rom. My phone is rooted and I installed touch recovery. When I do a software update, the phone downloads the update and after that reboots into recovery. It did not proceed with the update. May I know how do get the update working? Thanks in advance!

You need stock recovery for the phone to perform the OTA
