Are there any root methods that work for 1.85? - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I've tried the 3 or 4 that have been in the dev forums, all with errors and failures, and abd out of date or something.
Ive tried the one clicks
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/root-htc-one-xl-att-one-x-1-85-update-with-just-one-click/
and methods from OneXRoot.com

The one click root in the dev forum DOES work, and is currently the only root method for 1.85. I have used it 4 times now without issue. If you are having trouble getting it to work, ask for help in that thread, it's what it is there for.

This one?

Il do it, and post the errors. Maybe i can get some help

Yes, that one. If it doesn't work you need to set your date ahead 2 days and try again, as it says in the OP. You might still get a couple errors but check to see if SuperSU is installed and check if the SU binary is installed.

Ok, this is what I'm getting. SuperSU still isnt installed.

Okay, after that second failure, SuperSU actually got installed. But root checker says I do not have root access.
Gonna try again
...Ok, 3rd time was a charm
Thanks man

Progress! The next time will work, I can feel it

Haha, i edited my previous post. It worked, thanks again lol!

You just have to keep trying and make sure that each new try you move the date up 2 days. I actually had to use the 1.85 RUU to restore my phone because of some problem that made the storage read/write speed nonexistent so the launcher wouldn't even load.
So if it continues to not work for you, maybe you just have to use the RUU to restore your phone and then try it again.

My pleasure. Now unlock your bootloader and flash CleanROM SE

Speaking of unlocking my bootloader
Following these directions:
http://briefmobile.com/how-to-unlock-att-one-x-bootloader
It tells me to click on Unlock-Bootloader.bat, but that file isnt even included in the zip that I downloaded.

Yeah they need to update the instructions. Click spoof-cid.bat.
And you gotta stop going to these other sites for this stuff. Everything you need can be found in xda's dev section. It's where everything originates from anyways so might as well go right to the source

I'm pretty sure I'm rooted because I see SuperSU on my app list (I opened it and clicked update).
Here is the output from Spoof-CID.bat... FYI, I have fastboot off and USB debugging enabled.

This is from the RAZR forum I guess.. seen it there..
And those guys couldn't reboot or boot normally after doing this.. they had to use bp tools every time or use custom init with bmm or ss3 after the rooting process.. guess that issue is only for att phones..

no failure possibility is 0 if u followed instruction correctly

No buddy but u too got fooled by it
i too downloaded the zip before this but it uses other method and i tried that zip and got stuck in fastboot mode and had to boot all time from bp tools u ma tr it or just compare the zips haha juss jokin but it will not work for us

What do you mean "update manually", do you mean by checking for the OTA in Settings?
Download the 5.18 RUU and run it on a PC with the phone connected. See under "Manual system update instructions":

If you want help, you need to be specific about what you have done to this point, and answer the questions that are asked of you.
Anyway, I already told you how to get the phone working. At least based on my (assumed) understanding of what you have done to this point.
I follow the step for make the manual system update from HTC. So when i finish show the fastboot menu, I reboot the phone but just stuck in htc logo and show this back to HTC logo.
Dude , at this point I think redpoint73 is saying that all u can do now is run the 5.18 ruu.

You've asked the exact same question 3 times now (once in my PM), and its already been answered several times above.
If you do not understand what we are telling you, asking the same question over and over again isn't going to help you.
If that's a picture of his phone, it doesn't even look like a One X. Looks more like a One too me.

True. Didn't catch that.
The pic itself looks really weird. It looks like he used a flip phone to take a picture of a computer screen, rather than his actual phone. So whether the picture even accurately represents his phone, is questionable.
In any case, it probably doesn't matter. The OP clearly hasn't bothered to read or follow the responses, or provide any meaningful information; and hasn't been back for a while.

I know many here at XDA frown on using toolkit's, but if you having problems try
Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit. Its free and works fantastic.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766475
It will install custom recovery. Just install the toolkit, select your phone model and let it download the needed dependency's then click the advanced button,
then look under Fastboot Flash for the recovery button and follow the prompts to install TWRP.
Best of Luck

One other thought.
Because It looks like you are doing things correctly.
Sometimes changing your USB cable to Hi quality one will help
as cables can sometimes work fine for charging but not work well for flashing.

Here is much faster alternative to the current Odin Tar that is hanging around. Not to diss anyone but putting an important file on a server that makes you pay for high speed access is LAME. This took over 3 hours to download from that server...
This takes you back to: G920VVRU1AOC3, Wipes everything! Like a new phone
Here it is on AFH.com
Fast for every one!
ALL_VZW_G920VVRU1AOC3_G920VVZW1AOC3_CL4318389_QB4424773_REV02_user_low_ship.zip

How to use!
Load Samsung Mobile Drivers
Connect Phone while in download mode (Hold Power, Home and Volume down to get there)
Unzip Odin to desktop
Unzip Odin Tar from post #1 to desktop
Open Odin
Select AP and load Odin Tar
Wait a few seconds (depending on PC Speed)
Hit Start then wait until its done.
Do NOT touch the phone while this is in process!
When completed phone will reboot to recovery, do some "stuff" then boot up fresh like out of the box new!

Looking forward to seeing what happens and it's good to know that a lot of us here "know you" and your credibility/reputation for producing great work. Keep it up buddy! =)
Having trouble ladies and gents. Hoping for help.
I am soft-bricked ATM.
I was running fine, rooted, and have paid for Flashfire.
I downloaded our friend scrosler's flashable rom with root and I somehow soft-bricked my phone on the first try.
So....I downloaded Odin and the stock rom from this thread, even got the latest drivers just to be sure.
no matter what I do, Odin reports: "complete ( Write) operation failed." and "all threads completed, (succeed 0, failed 1)"
Have tried it multiple times, even switched to S6 factory USB cord and moved around to different prts on my system, all are motherboard driven USB ports.
Any ideas?
Cant get MD5's to match. Have downloaded multiple times, have tried multiple programs to unzip....no luck.
Never mind...was checking MD5 against unzipped file. Zipped MD5 is correct.
Going to try Odin again.
Nope.....Odin still fails.
Would love some ideas of what to try next.

Screen is light blue and says "Downloading..." with a big down arrow. Of course, Odin doesn't see the phone until I hit vol-up button.....and I am doing that. Factory cable. Have tried it in multiple motherboard ports....not an add-on card. I have used Odin on my S4 from this machine without problems.
Any other ideas? Thanks for trying to help me.

Hopefully the one in the OP but that is a good question as well.

Rooting MM 6.0.1 m4b30z with faulty power button

Can someone please help me in rooting my Nexus 5 on 6.0.1 m4b30z; the issue is that power button is not working so rooting from recovery is not possible. Looking for 1 click root option, i have tried kingroot apk but didnt worked
Reason for root is to add power options in the phone using several app so phone can be restarted when needed
PS: I believe the Bootloader is unlocked because i have seen unlock image in boot animation

I had issues with my power button too. But one can install any custom ROM, where it's possible to use the phone without touching the power button.
I've been using s-aosp n version, for almost over 3 months or so. My phone works just perfect.
I suggest you to find rom's of your interest. Good luck:good:

You can do it without power button, you know, "adb reboot recovery".

use this thread for reboot into recovery via adb, it's safest and don't try non-trusted root methods like you mentioned.
PS: don't forget to turn on adb debugging in developer menu ! (don't know how ? search )
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1853159
also for future reference, on android every command is possible via adb you just need to search for them..Google and XDA are your friend
So get familiar with basic adb there are some good guides here in Nexus 5 sticky therad as well as on general xda just search for ADB

which menu ?
just reboot into boot loader and flash TWRP & root using SuperSU then go to play store and find some app for advance reboot.

Okay here's ultimate solution for you and future similar cases...
extracted attached zip in PC.
Reboot into fast boot via adb and
double click root-windows.bat
and you are root !
now do whatever you want.

Oh...i just went ahead and did little more you.
anyway no problem...it'll help someone else in future.
btw if you can, change you root to SuperSU or other providers from xda as king-root , 1click and other Chinese companies are nasty with privacy
