My buddy who always roots my phones moved. I can someone please tell me what I need to do to get my att hox able to flash roms? I know the one click root but then what? Sorry In advance if this is a repetitive topic.
check out the development section for this phone. Everything you need to know will be there. Read up before you attempt anything. Make sure you understand the process. Help is always available here, just search first and I'm more than positive you will have success.

Everything you need is in the Development subforum, as mentioned.
To see the threads in a organized index, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237
In particular, check out the links under "Root", and also the guides near the bottom of post #1.
Just start reading up as much as you can. If things still seem unclear after reading, and doing some searches, come back and ask specific questions.
I would learn adb and go the manual route. The guides are easy to follow. I never seem to have success with the one click root method on 1.85. If you're on 1.73 then use the one click.

Hey guys. New to this phone but not rooting. Looking for most recent unlock and root method with working download links pls. Search brought up many variables.
Thanks!!
Start with the thread that's stickied in the dev section. The one that says 'how to root'
Pretty sure that's why they sticky them. So you can easily find and everyone doesn't have to ask questions like this.
There's only two stickies in the dev section. Neither are about rooting...
My bad. Was looking in wrong dev section. Thanks!

Make sure to read about backing up your IMEI before flashing Roms.
I just rooted my phone two days ago with this method. It was simple and easy to do and shortly after I flashed cm10.

I hope I'm not asking too much but hopefully someone can help me. I unlocked my bootloader and rooted my AT&T HTC One X 2.20 with TWRP. Obviuosly I'd like to flash a rm like CM10. Can someone either give me a link to a you tube or website that can give me "step by step" instructions on how to do this safely. I really need the directions to be very specific as i don't want to lose my phone due to the process. I've searched online and just can't seem to find the directions. Or if possible just give me the directions here. Thanks in advance.
There's a thread on this on the first page of the Q&A section, try looking there

My phone is company owned so I've left it alone, but JB doesn't seem to be coming to me OTA so if I'm gonna have to wipe it anyways I'll wipe it and put what I want on it.
(yes our mobile security software will flag it as rooted, but I'm the only administrator for mobile so not really a concern)
the problem is the files seem to be gone.
I'm currently running 1.85.502.3 710RD
2.20 never came to me OTA,
I've searched these forums and google for 1.85 root, but everyone every points me to gigashare.in which results in a 404 error,
anyone know how I can get my phone rooted now and put on a rooted jellybean. hopefully an asop jelly bean if one is out there, lets worry about root first.
Everything you might need is in a resource list pinned to the top of the Development forum.
You should root and unlock 1.85 first before trying to upgrade, because later versions are more locked down.

LOL @ FAQ posted right at the top of this forum OP posted to.
Thank you..
I had found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709424 so many times even when looking on other websites that when I saw the FAQ linked to a thread that had the Words ACT NOW in the subject I just counted it out as being the same useless thread with the missing file.
I'll give it a try this weekend thanks.

Have fun. It won't work. As it says right in red letters at the top of the post.
Why did you not simply follow the advice in 2 of the above responses, and either look in the FAQ sticky at the top of the Q&A forum section, or my Index thread sticky on the top of the Development section? Either one would have pointed to the correct working 1.85 root method.
Obviously, the OP shouldn't root his phone, if he can follow simple instructions. Can this get locked?

I have the same question as OP.
My phone is also at&t htc one x, firmware 1.85
I have read your post :
[INDEX] AT&T/ROGERS One X Resources Compilation Roll-Up (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237)
and this one:
Frequently Asked Questions (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2136172)
Both of them pointed out to the post for rooting in 1.85 firmware :
[ROOT] 1.85 - New, working method - ACT NOW, MAY NOT LAST FOREVER (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709296)
I think this one is the right one to go For OP and other Noobs like me on firmware 1.85
Thanks for all the dev and seniors asking Noob's questions.:good:
If I am in the wrong way. Please point me out the right one. Thank you
who can show me s-off ?????
i find the best rom for htc desire s, please .......
You'll find guides to unlock your bootloader and s-off in the stickies of the development forum with a list of all the roms and anything else you need. We don't do 'best roms' we do 'best roms for you' in other words. Flash a few roms to figure out the best one for your usage. If you really run into problems then you'll find lots of help in the 'help thread' i would suggest using search first though (it's actually quite good when it works) otherwise use Google and just add xda to the end of the search.

Seems like new users don't take the time to read the stickies. Those particular thread are important as they hold some troubleshoots that previous users have experienced and solved.
Cheers and good luck to Op but u don't need luck as the methods work, many users have s-off their phones using the same thread.
FromBeyondThisWorld
As mentioned above, we don't allow 'best ROM threads' as they usually turn into a pointless argument.
Also, while we don't mind helping you we want you to help yourself so you should test out the ROMs for yourself so that you can discover what YOU like the most.
As also mentioned, you can find guides for S-OFF via the stickies.
Please search for your answers in future as that's part of the forum rules.

Read my How-To Guide For Beginners thread in my signature, it has detailed directions on anything you need to do (including flashing a recovery). Ditch the toolkit and do it manually, it will provide some much needed learning experience, plus it's super easy. You'll also find my Evita FAQ thread in my signature which you can consult for any questions you might have in the future. Then there is my q&a thread, also in my signature, just in case those two threads don't have the answer, or if you don't quite understand an answer that you find.
