I have the AT&T Htc One X in my hands, is there a Root method yet that I over looked. Is there anything I can do to help someone make a Root method?
Read first as there is about 20+ threads already discussing it... the AT&T model has a locked bootloader, so that means no root or customs roms right now.
Thread closed.

Just bought a HTC One X from At&t (I know, should've waited for the X+, but I can't go without a phone for a month). I'm new to Android from having an iPhone 4 for the longest time and I'd love to root my device. I've done lots of reading and I can't seem to find a clear answer as to if I can root my device. I've been to htcdev and I can't get the official unlock to work. I've found mixed results by searching where some people successfully unlocked their phones, others said it was impossible, and others said that they had just done the htcdev unlock incorrectly.
Android version: 4.0.4
Software number: 2.20

Sorry to be the one to tell you but at this point in time root for 2.20 is impossible until we figure out a to exploit to achieve root. Hope I didn't ruin your day. Hopefully we start getting intelligent ideal and get root to unlock bootloader.

If you had done some reading you would have found the answer very easily. Yet another 2.20 thread.
First off, I'd like to apologize for dublicating my own post The original's here: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40123979&posted=1#post40123979
Second, yes, the same question: Has anyone here tried to unlock this phone? the Infobar A02 is basically a modified version of HTC One X, so some one on 2chan suggest that we should follow the same procedure of unlocking AT-T HTC One X for this one. Btw, HTCDev already S-ON/OFF this device.
Thank you for any kind of helping here. I'm anxiously waiting for any solutions, since I like this phone:laugh:
The one x is completely unlockable thru HTCdev. Unless you own the att version because HTC blocks att cids

@wilkin: This is a very interesting phone. I like the UI, honestly, so I'm looking for a way to unlock this.
@area51: I'm not talking about the AT-T version of HTC One X. I'm talking about this one: youtube.com/watch?v=-6O1-y6x-Ko
Like I said, it's a very heavily modified version of the HTC One X, so someone from 2chan (anonymously chatroom for japanese) suggest that after rooting, we should follow the same procedure of unlocking the AT-T's HTC One X to unlock this one.

If it's heavily modified then it's not really similar. Are you talking about hardware or software

I know this is an old thread, but since there's unlock directions now:
This article describes how to SIM-unlock the Infobar after you've achieved S-Off. Pull misc.img and some modem files (follow the commands the site gives you, I'm guessing), use a binary editor to edit misc.img so that (address?) 00001020 reads 02, then push it back into the phone. Poof, unlocked. If the Chinese sites are any indication, this unlock applies to the CDMA side as well, if you're planning to use it on a CDMA carrier that does SIMs.
Hey guys and gals! My att one x is on the way. I trying to find out as much as i can, before it arrives, for development and custom rom usage on the new device.
I have been out of the forums since i sold my att note.
I know this is alot to ask for some, but...
Can someone please lead me in the right direction for rooting, recovery (cwm if possible), and rom.
My goal is to use a net 10 sim and unlimited plan with this device. This might/would require a carrier unlock code? I can get the code if i need it but id really just appreciate someone summing up these basic questions with basic links or knowledge of the processes. I feel my contributions to our xda forums warrant these inquiries.
Im sorry that i cannot take the time to read the entire att one x forum and subs. Im literally in constant overtime at work. If someone here has the knowledge and guidance, I would appreciate every bit of help.
Summary : Information needed for...
Root
Recovery
Rom
Misc. Information i need to know, including cross-platform rom compatibility (i. e. One X and att One X)
I want to thank you guys in advance because I know at the heart of XDA lies a caring and gifted community of talented people who feel good helping others.
I promise to run with the information and do as much research and reading as possible when time permits. I have done so with all of my devices and being a creature of habit, well...
Thanks again and please dont expect an immediate response of gratitude, personalized to individual replies, until this weekend when i can get back on here and start the one x root process.
Check out this thread, it's got links to pretty much everything you'll need:

What he said. Also i suggest twrp over CWM. It is touch based, plus it works with plenty of roms. You do want to make sure you are on a version where your phone can be rooted.
Good luck.

Is this an AT&T phone, as I suspect from your post? If so, I hope you can still return it.
There is no root method for AT&T One XL phones on 3.18, and there may not be one for months if ever.

This is very true. If the device is from AT&T and has the 3.18 Jellybean firmware, its can't be rooted. Although its possible there is some old stock at some stores with older firmwares. Anything but 3.18 can be rooted. I think someone posted on here just a couple weeks ago about getting a new phone from an AT&T store that had 1.73 (the version from when the phone was released!).
OP should check the firmware version in Settings, and go from there.
Just Done a reasearch on rooting htc one x at&t :laugh: and searched every video and blog spot available.so there is no proper method available to root htc one x 4.1.1 3.18 beacuse of the policies of at&t and also the superid method is also not available so i hope the XDA team will pay a head on this and get a fast and suitable method to root htc one x quickly so that we can use customized roms i am loking forward for the best of the development from the forum and if anybody have done this plz shere the methods thanks in advance
If you done the research as you said you know you can root 4.1.1, S-off, and flash custom ROMs......

Firstly, all the info you'll ever need is on this forum right here. Going elsewhere is a surefire way to end up damaging your phone, as some of these other sites don't clearly distinguish between the Evita (One XL) and the Endeavoru (One X).
Secondly, there are working methods to root and s-off this phone on the 3.18 firmware, and they've been available for quite some time now.

[Q] How do I Root my HTC One X running 4.1.1. AT&T? I am a complete noob to Rooting
Talk to you me like I am a 5 year old, and include links. I need a complete easy guide to root my htc one x att 4.1.1.
There are clear guides available, like the one you posted in, you just need to do some learning. You haven't even given any useful details about your phone. I guess that's irrelevant though, the guide thread that you posted in is the correct one for your phone.
