That is correct. I went into rebootRUU mode and flashed the .img's seperately from the firmware folder in the decompiled RUU. That's the method that will brick you.

Just simply run the 3.18 RUU and all is well. I'll post the link to the RUU in the OP from HTC's site to end some of these questions...

EDIT: 3.18 RUU is in OP now from HTC's site.

Thanks,

Hey, I mean no disrespect, but why were mine (and others') posts removed? We were having a relevant conversation which still is unanswered. Instead of running the full RUU can we simply upgrade hboot with the tool that's available?

To much OT intermingled with questions.... This is a Original Development section for Development! If somebody would like, create a Q&A here http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1572 this would be more appropriate.

Much appreciated ^-^ I'm happy that things are much clearer now for me.
Go users woo

arghh.. never been in 3.18 land, so I have to ask, after flashing the RUU, will i have the flash the boot.img's in other roms? Or do anything different from before when flashing roms in the future?

other than hd video recording, everything else is groovy! and i mean rreeaallyy groovy. I'm loving it so far. Great work h8! :D

edit: actually, if I were to get nitpicky :D there seems to be quite a noticeable delay from pressing the power button to the screen turning on.

just a question...why do we have to update to 3.18 RUU just for this ROM with 3.4 kernel? or is this the legit/correct method to do so for every ROM from now on?

Yeah, came from the unofficial releases... it does seem... smoother and faster. It's only been a few hours though. Tomorrow will be a good test.

I was just on the sense 5 port wiped and flashed this rom and everything is working. I never had to flash ruu 3.18 at all not sure what that's about. I do have s-off, but other than that nothing special is setup.

I'm on Hboot 1.14 with s-off and flashed this several hours ago, so far it is running great, no random reboots or problems of any kind so far, I have been playing with it and pushing it hard, I really don't want to upgrade to 3.18 and so far I see no reason to. I will continue to play with it to see if any problems occur outside of those listed,but so far so good.

    CyanogenMod 10 is a free, community built distribution of Android 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean) which greatly extends the capabilities of your phone.

    This is the official Nightly Build of CM10.1 for the AT&T HTC One X / HTC One XL.

    To hear about the latest updates and changes to CyanogenMod as a whole, please follow +CyanogenMod on Google+!
    Code:
    #include

     *
     * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
     * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
     * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
     * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
     * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
     */

    Installation Instructions (These are all required)

    @h8rift please check PM

    Thread has been cleaned out. While I realize Development has slowed, I have created an OT thread in the General section HERE For all to decompress ;)


    Lets try to stick with CM talk here.

    Thank you

    Thanks Tony, and sorry for the very late reply to your PM. You did what I would have asked :).

    Development is still going on for this device, but we're trying to work on m7 (HTC One) and this family and get them merged so they always stay up to date with eachother. Its a fun, but daunting task...so please bear with me :). Once we get this kernel cleaned up it *does* have working HDMI and no refresh lines too. So basically, it will be near perfect and solid for this device. Just need some time as alot of us have had work stuff, personal stuff, (and myself) medical stuff going on.

    We still love our S4 8960 devices, so they aren't forgotten :). We're learning alot about things we can fix here from what we are learning about the m7, so its a great experience for us and for you, the user. So kick back and relax and I will definitely put a noticable post up when nightlies return to normal and we move on to the other kernel which drops the lib that got us DMCA'ed.

    Thanks everyone,

    I believe everyone is correct and a status update is required at this point. This was my first CM device to maintain and I have a deep love and respect for it.

    We just merged up our 3.4 stuff to CyanogenMod and each of the four devices in the family have a few leftover issues before we start nightlies again.

    Here's the scoop on our phone on 3.4 at this moment:

    All features work except:
    *720p/1080p video
    *random reboots
    *increased battery drain over 3.0 kernel as it is not optimized or has a stale process chewing battery. Its nothing catastrophic, but noticeable.

    Issue-by-issue:
    #1: this is broken on all four devices at the moment and as all of you remember from cm9, cm10, cm-10.1 w/3.0 kernel....we do camera last. Stability first, features second, polish third.

    #2 I bricked my Evita while fixing this issue so it could be released in an alpha status to you all. Luckily, XsMagical has been very very kind and offered to donate me a new motherboard ($150) to revive my device. It should be in the mail coming my way on Monday. We believe we found the fix, I just need to validate.

    #3 this issue will be addressed after reboots and camera are up. Hell it could be the camera or reboots causing it. That's why we polish last.

    **Sidenote: in 6-8 months I will most likely get whatever new htc device is out there and maintain it too if its on at&t. Why? Because our 4 (now 6) man squad are all CM has for HTC development officially. Period. There's nearly 10 people on the GS3 and GS4 series of phones just by themselves. No one wants or loves htc devices more than us so damn right I will do my hardest to maintain as much and as many as I can. Every new device I encounter the mire I learn how to fix up the others. We figured out HDMI out for this device by working on the HTC One, for example. We are also looking at merging kernels so that yes, thus device will be continually carried through new versions of android as well as the newer devices.

    Some Evita users moved to the HTC One already and I was already there having their back. I would feel more appreciative that you get an easy-going, hard working person like me to give up all this time to work on devices knowing dang well that if you upgrade to another AT&T HTC device, you can expect me along with it. I feel I am dependable and actually listen to complaints, kudos, and feedback and respond appropriately, while other developers might not really care to respond to anything. My PM box fills up daily with questions and queries about how to build android from source for random devices like Huawei, or older devices like the HTC Flyer tablet. I literally work 45 hours a week at work, then put in another 5 hours minimum every night (or 10-15 on weekends). If you have been wondering what I have done with my 25 hours on android this week it has been trying to find a way to un-brick my Evita before that motherboard arrives so I can get to work this weekend. Rohan has been helping out a lot since my device died but he is very busy at the moment.

    Last but not least. As soon as I can confirm the random reboots every 5-10 minutes are gone and it is a stable phone (I'm talking voice and data, because phone call availability is #1 priority...I mean...its a phone for crying out loud...), I will be blowing this thread up with test builds to see if we catch other bugs.

    But I would rather see you on a stable build from March than an unstable build today and something happens to a family member and you don't get the phone call. Or maybe you get hurt badly and your phone reboots in mid-dial.

    That's what I think about. That's why there are no test builds yet. Be patient, I want to see everyone excited again once this is released again. Lord knows I could use a few hours break by having all the devices on nightlies so I can work out bugs!

    Sorry for the length, but that's what's on my mind after I read the last few posts so I wanted you to know *everything* that is going on.

    Thanks,
    -h8

    Little update for you guys, the remaining issues are almost done for the 3.4 kernel. the permanent black screen unless USB is plugged in is gone now. We are now dealing with a screen on / off delay of a half a second and getting camera working again :).

    Sit tight, eat some popcorn, you will enjoy the update when its available (then nightlies will start up again shortly after, bc we wont need the file that got us DMCA'ed). This also sets us up for quick updates to the next version of android since we're mostly CAF, with minor HTC bits needed to run the vendor-specific hardware.

    We're making major headway on our 3.4 kernel. No tearing and such, super smooth. Only problem right now is Camera, screen on/off delay, and if you dont have a USB cable plugged in, after about 10-15 seconds, the screen will not turn back on until you plug a usb cable back in. Otherwise its pretty much fully CAF code :).

    Sorry haven't been around, we took a break for about a week, we'll still waiting on our vendor repo to come back. That break did us well, we're making major progress now.

    There is no "giving up", its just "how long will it take". We are going to miss M3 but are trying to be ready for cm-10.1 stable. We'll just have to see.

    Thanks guys!
