@WindyCityRockr, @markwoo, I have both the smaller and larger OTApkg.zip files that came with the update. Would either you like me to send a PM with the links? I'm not sure how to make something useable out of them. Below are screenshots of my software and build info.

Unable to flash stock recovery

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I was rooted with stock ROM and TWRP. After being unable to successfully install the first small update, I did some reading and relocked the bootloader. Somehow managed to break recovery. Installed stock ruu successfully but cannot get either the stock att recovery or TWRP to install via either fastboot command or hasoons toolkit. Help! Both operations appear to run successfully but still have the red triangle when attempting to boot into recovery. Thanks in advance for any direction you might offer.

If u ran the ruu then u have the stock recovery already read the OP.

So this should be added to the OP. Just relocking the bootloader is not enough. You must have a stock recovery as well or it will not update. Please add a guide to flashing the stock recovery to the OP

    Update Details: http://www.htc.com/us/software/software-updates/htc-one-x-sense-5-update/

    AT&T RUU: https://s.basketbuild.com/filedl/de...5_18.27.11.35L_release_341689_signed_0220.exe

    Sense 5 ROMs: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=36091570&postcount=1

    Q&A

    I am on the stock ROM, but my bootloader is unlocked and I am rooted. Can I accept the OTA update?

    No, you must relock your bootloader before taking the update. Otherwise, it will do nothing.


    Can I accept the OTA update while on a custom ROM like Viper, Elegancia, Blackout, etc?

    No, because the OTA checks to see if any files have been tampered with from stock, so your phone will refuse to update. You will have to go back to a stock ROM or flash the RUU to get the update.


    Will the Telus One X+ be getting the OTA update?

    It looks like Telus isn't getting the update according to this update schedule, which lacks any mention of the X+.


    How do I get said update if I am not on the AT&T network?

    Your only options at the moment are to flash a custom ROM based on Sense 5 or flash the RUU, as you cannot receive the OTA from AT&T while on another network.


    Is there a way to get the update without updating the bootloader?

    Yes, flashing a custom ROM based on Sense 5 will give you the update without updating your bootloader.


    I tried updating, but it downloaded a 13 MB update and I'm still on Sense 4+. What gives?

    The Sense 5 update is a two-part update. The first small update gets the phone ready for the larger and fully Sense 5 update.


    But now I have to wait another 24 hours before I can check for updates again! What if I want it NOW?

    You can go to Settings > Date and Time and uncheck Automatic Date/Time, then manually set the day ahead by one. This will allow you to check for updates again.


    If you still have some unanswered questions or want something clarified leave a reply and I'll see what I can do. :fingers-crossed:

    Ok guys, there IS A WAY to flash when you have "error 158"

    I got someone to test this out 1st, so i know it works (AT&T device tested)

    Here's what you need ;

    Minimal ADB\FASTBOOT HERE saves downloading THE WHOLE ANDROID SDK
    The OFFICIAL RUU (download is in the OP)
    and a file that i own, also known as the HBOOT. DOWNLOAD HERE

    1st you will need to backup everything from sdcard,

    reboot into FASTBOOT-USB (bootloader) make sure the USB is connected

    Run the HBOOT exe file 1st, let that run, once that has run and done, run the RUU in fastboot-usb still with bootloader locked.

    AND TADA

    sorted

    I have successfully captured both the preliminary 13.8mb OTApkg.zip as well as the second 532mb OTApkg. The smaller(first) update caused me to lose root so I had to back through the steps to regain it. I am currently waiting for the files to upload to dropbox and will share the link when the upload is complete.

    It is strange, but the text file named version in the first OTApkg shows version 1.19.502.1 CL161932. Is this the older update that they might have accidentally left on their servers?! Regardless, I will still link to both packages.

    Schedule Update!

    I sent an email to Jason Mackenzie at HTC, and he was able to narrow down the timeframe for the 4.2.2 update to early January!:D A little far off, but it's great to finally hear some more definitive dates.

    New Information and Speculation

    I've been keeping up to date on the Twitter-sphere for any new HTC update info. The AT&T 4.2.2 update is still stuck in the certification process with AT&T. :( It appears though that the EVO 4G LTE will get an update via OTA to 4.2.2, then will have a 4.3 update given through PC only. This seems like a good possibility for the One X+ as well (at least the AT&T version). Also, the Droid DNA has a confirmed 4.2.2 release in November, with a confirmed update to 4.4 in Q1! This is also a possibility for our phone. Again, this is all speculation, but by the looks of it, 4.2.2 will most likely not be the last update for us! :laugh:
