[Q] Bricked my HTC Desire X - 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.

[Q] Error in updater-script

Hi guys! I have a error in CWM (Error 6), that I belive it's error in updater-script! Can anyone help me?
I will add my updater-script and my updater-binary in attachement!
Thanks,
pedrorubster
PS: I changed in updater-script my Rom name to ROM_NAME to don't have copys of my ROM's name!
What is the error actually? Just the code doesn't help, I need to know more exactly about it.
A quick overview, I noticed
Code:
package_extract_dir("system", "/system")
Missing a ; from the end.
And for some reason,
Code:
show_progress(1.0, "-74000");
seems a bit strange to me, haven't noticed such values(under 0) earlier.

I see you are making your own custom ROM.
What about custom kernel? Do you have it or not? If not, try installing one.

[e450]Custom Boot.img(Optima Team)

hey guys here is a custom bootimg for the L5 II (e450).
What has Changed?
ro.secure set to 0
added init.d support
What is to come?
Underclock CPU
Overclock CPU
a few people may have noticed that by unlocking the bootloader you can still get a security error is you changed a system file that LG doesnt want you playing with, in other words if you try port Lewa or MIUI you still get a security error. that is because there are a few additional things that need to be changed on the bootimg. I thought changing ro.secure to 0 would fix this but it didnt.

Happy Flashing

I am Guessing its a Yes. I dont see much difference between the two devices. but I would suggest making a back up first. when building this I flashed faulty bootimg 's and it didnt brick my device I was able to boot into recovery and flash back stock.

so i succesfully flashed it on e460 and it works but the led buttons dosent light up and i didnt find the initd folder in system/etc. so i think there are some differences between these devices and this kernel cannot be compatible. can you build one with the e460 source?

It was a problem with my updater script. I forgot to create the init.d folder. I will upload it not.
you can send me your stock bootimg if you want and i will add the same features.

you must have installed a custom recovery or have rooted your official rom that is why it doesn't download updates
you have to flash your stock rom through odin first then you can receive updates
if you are doing this just for installing stock MM then download latest firmware or MM firmware for your variant and flash it
enjoy MM
