I have gone from TrickDroid to stock Rom because the OTA update.
Unlocked my bootloader and tried to root my device like with the 4.0.3
, but I didn't succed.
The SuperSu app is nowhere
Can anyone make the root for(4.0.4) or I must go again to stock(4.0.3) to root my device and flash a rom?

You have to unlock your bootloader and then flash TWRP with fastboot. Then you can flash the supersu bineries. Thatstge way I rooted mine.

I am running 4.0.4 and it's rooted the way I described it.

Thanks but i didn't finish anything yet.
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash TWRP
3. By PC opened the bat. file from superboot r1.zip(bootloader mode)
No supersu
Correct me if I'm wrong in the steps

bootloader says tampered and unlocked. when i use hasoon2000's tool kit an click perm root an then run it just brings up the prompt an says the file directory.
pls help
If you have bl unlocked just fastboot flash a recovery than a Rom....
I followed the directions. I used to do this myself but it's been a long time. A year or two so I used a tool kit but hey if I'm right then cool. So throw a rom in the phone storage an install from there?

3.18 ota question

I have been having serious internet problems on my pc. I can never get ruu to finish downloading with out errors. I do have the ota zip file. I'm rooted, super cid and s-off. Is it safe to update that way or should I keep trying to get ruu to download?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Man! Why do want to ask such hard questions? I know you can install zip from sd but I could not say how safe it would be.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I was able to when I had S-OFF and the bootloader unlocked. I RUUed to 2.20, then I applied the OTA update from the stock recovery. My phone is still kicking. I tried to get everything back to stock after that, changed to stock CID, wrote the secure flag, and then locked my bootloader. I regret doing that now as I no longer have a root method on 3.18.
That's why I'm hesitant lol I guess ill keep trying for the ruu to download. Unless I can get a 100% positive answer... I tried to dl it with my phone and straight talk just throttled me at about 450 megs so I figured I'd stop before they killed my data connection again. They shut my data off last most for like a week and a half
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
I flashed the ota before the ruu was released, and I've been fine. You do have to have stock recovery in place, so you'll have to run the 2.20 ruu first. You can't flash the ota with a custom recovery.

No need to relock since you're S-OFF, you can flash OTA via Stock recovery. I'm not sure what will happen if you're flashing over a custom rom... I've only ever flashed an OTA over stock ROM myself.

Oh s**t I didn't even think about that... Good call. I may have had a disater and no choice but to post a oops I f'ed up my phone thread lol I just may hold off till I can get RUU downloaded correctly.
The ota and ruu I think are like 2-3 mb different in size (ota smaller I think) what could be missing? Adb folders maybe?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Or... Would wiping everything including system in twrp then flashing stock recovery then flashing ota work?
Just off phone with HTC tech support, second teir I guess. The first guy transferred me. Told them I was rooted and all and s-off. Direct from them they told me the ota completly wipes the OS it just retains certain folders for contacts and personal info.

Unlocked 3.18 Now What?

Now that we have the exploit to unlock the bootloader on 3.18, I thought I would give you the run down on what to expect.
The first thing that you need to know is that your hboot version will not allow you to flash custom roms properly. You will have to manually flash the boot image: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2136172 . Flashing roms without doing this manually requires a method called S-Off in witch you remove security: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155071 If you are thinking about flashing aosp based roms you will have to s-off "FIRST" and downgrade your touch screen for them to work properly: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2159863
Hopefully this will eliminate some confusion and help you on your way.

Go here : [ROOT] HTC One X AT&T 3.18
I have been unlocked and have superCID, when trying to flash custom recovery via the fast boot it seems to install fine but when i reboot into recovery the recovery is blank any ideas? What are the steps i should properly take to gain Root,s-off etc. Any assistance would be aprpeciated.
Did you unlock bootloader via HTC dev?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Yes sir cid is 11111 via fastboot auth
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
What I am asking is if you went to the HTC dev site and received an unlock token to unlock the boot loader after gaining temp root. If so you can download goo manager from play store search for twrp and it will install it for you. Make sure you stay with 2.3..... 2.4 has issues wiping on our phones.

You will also need to install super user.

you need to hold the volume down button and power. once you get into the bootscreen choose recovery. This will load up TWRP. Once your in you can gain SU by going to advanced and fixing permissions I believe. Also note when installing custom roms you must do a complete data wipe/cache/dalvik/system or you might have boot loops or no boot at all.
You gain such by flashing su in recovery.

How do I put su on my one x I have unlocked it. No twrp. I tried s-off but there's no su. Need help

2.20 root help

this is my personal experience it is not my fault if it doesn't work and damages your device. i was rooted via the one click method before the jelly bean update on ics BTW. *I attempted to root via one click method but to no avail.I then used super-CID (onexroot, com) to change the Cell IDentification, ion number to allow the bootloader to be unlocked. I unlocked the boot-loader via HTCdev (htcdev, com/) .then I flashed TWRP( teamw, in/) custom recovery. after that i flashed the Superuser files ](onexroot, com) then i followed the instructions to get s-off ](android police, com/2013/02/18/s-off-now-available-for-the-htc-one-xl-and-droid-dnaheres-how-to-do-it) not a senior member so it won't let me post links.

What you answered me is if I want to install/flash a RECOVERY, right?
But I just wanna flash a stock ROM - I still need a special RECOVERY for that?
BTW - I searched for RUU but didnt find for HTC Butterfly.

You can got to bootloader and find out your device details..
Just restart your device..While restart just press volume down key to get it into bootloader where you can find whether it is dlxu or dlxub1..
Also you need to be very clear in your request so that we can help..
First need some info but why open bootloader and install twrp if you want to stay stock find right ota or ruu
