ok i will keep trying i just keep getting errors dev keeps saying cant unlock bootloader
i cant remember the exact errors but after copying my code it says something to that effect about not being able to unlock it
thanks for the reply

You need to get SuperCID first:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672284
(there are more ways to do it, but I think a tool may be easier)
Then you unlock with htcdev.
Then recovery, etc

No cid/root required for a non AT&T Onex.
Just unlock at htcdev.

Download this. Plug your phone in and just run the exe. Should have no problems since you say you're s-off.

NO. you are s off. Just run the ruu, then push a twrp recovery. After that just flash a Rom

You shouldn't be having any problems changing roms if you're s-off and doing the wipes.

OK so just d so I got this straight. Ruu back to stock, unlock boot loader, flash recovery. And can this be done in Ubuntu?

Ya do I have to lock bootloader to do this? Then get it unlocked after? Cause its telling me to charge ny phone when it is.

If you're s-off bootloader unlock no longer matters. You can just run the ruu and away you go.
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium

I believe you still need a locked bootloader to run an ruu

Bootloader/Custom Recovery question

Hi, I've read and searched about rooting or unlocking a refurbished phone should be okay to do, i just want to know for sure if I will be okay. My one x is refurbished and would like to know if I can install viper Rom with no troubles, will I be able to unlock bootloader and flash custom recovery? I just want to be safe

Is it an AT&T phone?
If so, you can't unlock the bootloader, and thusly you cannot root.

Yeah :/ it's at&t lol so I guess I'll have to wait to do this. But if and when I do, should I run into any problems being that I now own a Refurbished phone?

The fact that it's refurbished has no bearing over whether or not it's rootable.

The main point of the question was if I should or shouldn't... If they didn't reset the bootloader or main circuit board I can end up with another brick. That's what I'm trying to avoid this time

One of the various reasons why the "one-click" methods always look suspicious to me. It often ends up being "one-click root method for every phone . . . except HTCs".
But by all means, OP should try it, and let us know.

Actually, this makes perfect sense in theory as you use that to root. It says nothing about unlocking the bootloader.
Once you have root, you could then SuperCID and then unlock your bootloader.

The ruu tells you step by step what to do. These phones are more tempermental than Samsung stuff. If you rush it and miss a step you will probably end up with a paperweight

I agree that Samsung+Odin makes life easier. But I like the challenge in AT&T (and Motorolas). Whatever floats your boat. Glad you got it rooted. Can you put a [fixed] or [solved] tag in your title? That way people can easily find the answer instead of making a new thread
