Im on Rogers and im not sure how that will work. Im seeing all the new roms/mods based off 1.85.
Do i need to upgrade to 1.85 from 1.73? How do i go about doing so with the Rogers phone? Im already unlocked/rooted. Thx
Isn't root currently broken for 1.85?

not for me, i'm on 1.85 and rooted with an unlocked bootloader. in summary, the method i used was (a) applied SuperCID as the Device ID and unlocked, then relocked bootloader, (b) flashed the 1.85 RUU, unlocked the bootloader (again), installed CWM recovery, flashed the SU (superuser.apk) and now i'm on rooted on 1.85.

I had a question...
So I've been rooted on both 1.73 and 1.82 but now I'm running completely stock 1.85 (for the new radios) and I've never unlocked my boot loader.
Can I unlock?
you are going to have to search the threads first.....then after that, downgrade to 1.82 then root then unlock then relock then upgrade back to 1.85 then unlock then root....if this fails...search

Looking for the stock evita recovery image so i can update my unlocked, rooted One X to 1.85 (yes i have ota rootkeeper). I don't want to flash the RUU or use a custom rom as I did that already and felt that stock rom was the best for me.
TIA!

RUU = ROM Upgrade Utility. Running the RUU, be it 1.73, 1.82 or 1.85 will return your phone to bone stock of that firmware. Be sure to re lock your bootloader before running the RUU.
Yeah just re-lock the bootloader, flash the 1.85 RUU, unlock it then push a recovery and root.

Yep that's what I did. I just wanted a way to be unlocked and have the stock recovery.

Im on 1.82 rooted/unlocked, but i wanna update to 1.85ruu so my question is, how can i update and keep my device rooted? I don't want to take any risk with the new 1.85 one click root...
You need to read more. This information is easily available in other threads. You don't need to use the one-click root to update to 1.85 if you already have bootloader unlock. Just relock bootloader, run RUU. Re-unlock, then install CWM and flash SuperSU from CWM. You will then be on 1.85 and rooted.

I haven't seen anything specific to 1.94, but you could always unlock your bootloader through HTCDev and flash a custom recovery with ADB and flash the SU binary. I think you may be out of luck if you want a root option that doesn't involve unlocking the bootloader.

That's right, there no method to root on 1.94 at this moment. Only way I got my HOX rooted was by unlocking the bootloader using HTCDEV and flashing TWRP recovery and then flashing Cleanrom 4.5 which gave me root access. There might be a few other roms out there that will give you root after you flash them but I've tried a few and Cleanrom 4.5 was the only one that gave me root. It's a great rom so I'm happy with that.

With custom recovery/unlockedBL you just flash or push root right from recovery.
I have my phone rooted since the first days of having it.
Never taken OTA update so it's still on 1.85 and it's unlocked but S-ON.
Has TWRP 2.4.3.0 and custom kernel and ROM.
Wanted to try some new roms that require new 2.20 and S-OFF.
Found a method to root 2.20 and get S-OFF, but my question now is how to safely upgrade from my existing condition 1.85/S-ON to 2.20?
Thanks
Why don't you just s-off, then RUU to 3.18, flash TWRP 2.3.3.1, downgrade touchscreen firmware, and then you can flash whatever you want.

Agree. Just S-off now, then run the 3.18 RUU.
If you are on 1.85, 2.20 is just an obsolete and unnecessary middle step, at this point.
Thanks to you both. Would you point me to see off procedure for 1.85?
Or it is the same as for 2. 20?
Thanks again

Soff is the same regardless of software version. There's a sticky in the original android development section.
