[Q] RUU problem

KakisHLoLz · Jan 4, 2014

Hey! I screwed up my root on my One X and now I am trying to apply an RUU update.

I downloaded the latest one I could find on androidruu.com
When it was about halfway done it aborted automatically and I got this message:

ERROR [158]: IMAGE ERROR

The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone.
Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.

My current version is 4.18.771.4 and it wanted to update/downgrade to 3.14.401.31 which is nowhere near my current version so the RUU must be wrong?
It said it was released 2013-01-30 15:48:53 and that's the latest one on that website, maybe there are other websites with more recent RUUs?

Here is also my "getvar" info

Yes it will, if you manage to get your hands on a 4.18 ruu

The problem is that I can not boot into OS.
I am stuck on the Cyanogenmod boot logo.

I don't know what went wrong, I unlocked the device and flashed with TWRP.
Then I got the problem where the touch did not work so I had to flash an older version of TWRP which fixed that.

Then I flashed my Cyanogenmod ROM and wiped both the dalvik and regular cache.
When I tried to boot it just stuck on the boot logo.

I tried to wipe the data but I managed to somehow mix up two different wipe options and obviously I wiped both the backup and everything on my sdcard. I'm screwed...

I used the adb tool to push over Cyanogenmod to TWRP and flashed the ROM ones again to see if that might fix the problem.

I still couldn't boot into OS and so I tried to follow Cyanogenmod's guide on how to root One X.
I flashed the recovery with Clockwork recovery and everything went fine until I try to flash a ROM from Clockwork recovery... I can't mount my sdcard?!?!
I tried to flash back to TWRP but when I try to boot into recovery from bootloader it just reboots back into HBOOT...

So now here I sit and think how much life sucks.

I never see you mentioning flashing the boot.img from CM ?

But if you start to flash this recovery

https://www.dropbox.com/s/yqzlpqo8illa53j/Philz recovery 5.15.9.img

It has touch and you can also mount the sdcard

I think RUU 4.18 will not

It seems that my phone won't charge, it's been charging for 4hr+ and it still says too low to flash...

Okay so I managed to flash PhilZ Touch 5, now you say I should flash boot.img, is that the file inside the cyanogenmod zip or is it a separate download?

KakisHLoLz · Jan 5, 2014

I got everything to work, I flashed the boot.img and I am now a happy owner of a rooted One X

Thanks for your help! Cred to Mr Hofs!
