No OTA until now, any other solutions? - HTC Desire X

Hello all,
There is still no JB update for me CID_J15 although some people with the same CID got it!
I am on JB custom ROM, i return back to stock ICS to check for the update, but no luck!
A guy "ahmad" made a thread for all the official OTA updates, which includes CID_J15, but when am on stock, my software version is -as i remember- 1.18.405.x
So, can i use any of the OTA updates mentioned in that thread to update to JB?
I just need my hboot to be updated as am going to continue using custom ROMs.
Thanks

I was about to ask the same.
How do I install the OTA zip file ? Can somebody please tell me.

Try looking for the ota files which are downloaded during the update. After that you can manually initialize the update,
Or the best way is to wait for another week. I got my update a week after others got

Firstly go to all stock by flashing stock rom stock recovery and stock boot.img
Secondly Copy the ota in download folder in sdcard and then go to bootloader.

You can flash the PM66IMG.zip through fastboot, and then flash an JB ROM with a JB kernel, that's done.

[Q] Rooted HTC Desire X software update problem

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

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.

Yes.
It's in the general section. Thread by designgears

New Question - How do I upgrade to 4.2.2 Firmware on Rogers HTC One?

I'm on 4.1.2 currently - Stock - But haven't received the OTA update yet. (My carrier hasn't pushed it yet, sounds like its still a month away)
Is it worth unlocking the bootloader, putting a custom recovery on and flashing a 4.2.2 rom? (Android Revolution as I want the stock experience) Just for the updates 4.2.2 brings?
I've used 4.2.2 on other phones I have (Xperia ZL Stock and Nexus 4 running PA 3.5) so I'm aware of what the stock upgrades are, but what does 4.2.2 bring to the HTC One over 4.1.2? Any improvements?
I want to try Android Revolution but have been hesitant on doing so - I have a Rogers Canada version of the HTC One LTE (Same as AT&T). Am I able to flash International roms like Android Revolution on my phone and maintain LTE?
I am S-ON, but I understand Most roms still use the Stock Kernel correct? So how would I go from 4.1.2 Stock rom to 4.2.2 Android Revolution as far as flashing? Do I need flash the boot.img first? (Doing it with S-ON is what I'm implying, yes I know there are S-OFF methods currently)
Update: I'm now S-OFF, Rooted, Unlocked Bootloader and on Stock 4.1.2 Rogers ROM.
NEW QUESTION
See Post #8
4.2 bring some improvements like native eqs and lockscreen widgets all you need to remember is 4.2 changes the file structure so it is best to backup and wipe before going to it all you need to do is follow the op for arhd and you will be alright

Thanks for the confidence haha.
I unlocked bootloader, Flashed CWM Touch and S-OFF'd using the Revone method.
I didn't realize S-Off was so easy.
Rooted as well.
I work very early (5am) so will try flashing rom tomorrow.
Is there anyway of upgrading the firmware from Rogers to the newest UL? Any help here would be appreciated.

I think there's a file in the firmware you can edit but I just changed my cid to HTC__001 and changed it back afterwards

What about the one having Stock Rom (Not Rooted) ? My CID is Roger_001 and currently running 4.1. But I haven't received OTA on my Phone yet. Does this make any difference if the phone is being used in other country ?

[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.

Can we flash this over stock rooted with twrp as a substitute for the OTA. Cuz if I wanna take the tradition OTA I would have to flash stock recovery take the OTA and then re root.

Don't dirty flash this one over stock. This is deodexed so it will screw things up. Been busy with getting the badseed Rom ready but I should have time to do an odexed version this weekend.

Awesome. Once its odexed I can dirty flash then?
Else I was just gonna wait for viper to update to 1.58 and flash that or worse comes to worse flash stick recovery and take the OTA but I know some have been having issues with that and the OTA would only get 40% done and fail because of some xml file differences

If you have a stock rom backup you should be able to take the OTA no problem. You just can't have anything modified in the system partition, if you do it will fail.
I just restored my untouched/unmodified stock backup and flash stock recovery and got the OTA from system updates.

I reflashed the stock recovery for the OTA, but my rom backup already had some of the bloat taken out, and other apps updated. For instance, when I tried to run the OTA is said that Kindle was not as expected, since the update was integrated into the system rom. Would I then have to wait for the odexed version of your stock version, and then have the OTA included anyway?

Shoot xposed framework had to be flashed from recovery since i still have write protection on and it needed to be a system app.

The word "firmware" is rather generalized and can apply to any type of program code flashed to a device. Don't feel dumb, because the term "firmware" is sometimes used on XDA interchangeably with the word ROM.
But their are other times when folks talk about "the firmware" (such as in posts 5 and 6 above) to mean "the other modules that are included in the 1.58 OTA aside from the ROM". I haven't looked at this particular firmware zip, but they can typically contain: hboot, kernel, radio, WiFi, media and possibly other modules.
These other modules are typically not needed to run a particular ROM. But it might be argued, if they cared enough to change them, there might be something in there worth installing.
Personally, I'm rarely in the practice up updating the firmware packages, and have only rarely seen it make much difference.
