Key Points to Note

  • The Renovate Jelly Bean ROM and the instructions provided in this guide are compatible only with the HTC One X model only. It will not work on any other device. Verify your device's model number by navigating to Settings > About Phone.
  • IBTimes UK advises users to back up apps, important data and settings to avoid risk of data loss while flashing the Renovate Jelly Bean ROM on the Nexus 4 E960.
  • The instructions given in this guide are meant for reference purpose only and do not cover any warranty claims involving device damage or issues arising out of using the Renovate ROM based Jelly Bean update. Users are advised to proceed at their own risk.

Pre-requisites

  • Make sure that your device is rooted with ClockworkMod Recovery (CWM) installed on it.
  • Verify the HBOOT version of your device, as the ROM works with HBOOT version 1.31, 1.33 or 1.36 only. Attempting the installation of this ROM on incompatible HBOOT versions may brick your device with permanent consequences.
  • Keep a working Windows computer handy, along with the phone's original USB cable.
  • Ensure that the correct USB drivers are installed for your HTC One X by downloading and installing the HTC Sync software.
  • Enable USB debugging mode on your phone by navigating to Settings > Applications > Development.
  • Disable all security software including antivirus, firewall and antimalware. Also disable HTC Sync and other software that access your phone in the background. Such software may interfere with the ROM installation procedure and thereby brick your device.
  • Make sure that the device's battery has at least 75 percent charge to prevent unexpected device shutdown (due to battery drain) while flashing the Renovate Jelly Bean ROM on the HTC One X.
