tried that already doesnt work
So is it locked or unlocked , and do you have root. Sounds like one of those two issues....also what ruu did you use and was it upgrade ruu from prevoius. There is many threads on these issues.

You don't need root to install TWRP. For every One X variant except AT&T, the root method is to unlock bootloader, install TWRP, then flash SU or a rooted ROM (and this is also the way to get perm root on 2.20).
Go into bootloader, and verify that it says UNLOCKED.
So my onex is unlocked and supercid. But I installed the ota. My cid is still 111111 and my bootloader is unlocked. Is there any way to install recovery and root?

Can you get to bootloader?
If so, it's just a matter of fastboot flash recovery [filename], then copy over a rooted rom and flash.
Can I root my HTC sensation without losing any data? And how to that ?
All i want at the end is to flash a custom Rom so practically I need to unlock boot loader with htcdev the flash recovery and then what? Root ? And flash Rom ?
I am kind of lost :S
And I want to know if the htcdev will erase everything on my phone including sdcard? :d

with htcdev method after unlocking bootloader it will do a factory reset to the device
but your sdcard will be untouched
if you follow the S-OFF procedure first you must backup all your contents in your sdcard because during the procedure(in the moment of the wire trick) it will erase everything in your sdcard

Chill guys
Plz confirm one last thing, (just making sure)
No need for the unlock process using HTCDEV when using the file you pm'ed me with, I mean no need for HTCDEV unlock bootloader in order to achieve perma root
Am I right?

Only the last step is necessary if he had saved the Unlock_code.bin file
Otherwise get the file again by resubmitting the identifier token at htcdev.com
Finally type "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin" to unlock
Yeah, unlock again from the HTC Dev website. Same steps will do.
Just bought a used One x At&t..I want to Root it but i dont know if its bootloader is locked or unlocked.It has got the Stock Rom & Stock recovery.
It says S-off in the bootloader menu..I want to Root it..Should i just go & Flash Custom recovery then go for the Rooting?
Well if you flash recovery and the bootloader is locked it will fail so there's not really any harm in trying.
Though it says In the bootloader if it's locked unlocked or relocked

Bootloader is locked..Guess i have to unlock it first :crying:
Plug it in, fire up cmd prompt and type adb getvar cid
If it comes back as 11111111 simply unlock with htc dev, its super simple.
Then fastboot recovery.
You can always try the fastboot cmd
Fastboot oem unlock
Can't remember if that works or not lol. Probably not though just a thought since its already s-off
Since it is s-off you will ALWAYS be able to root very easily. :thumbup:
