Quick question regarding root from stock 1.85

Hey everybody, coming from a Atrix, loving the phone so far. I've been doing some reading and want to confirm what I believe I'm seeing: if the OneX I bought from AT&T has 1.85 already on it, I can't root or flash any ROMS yet? All of the root/CWM stuff is just got users on earlier versions, or who are on 1.85 AFTER rooting/unlocking, is that correct? Am I stuck for now?
Thanks!

That is correct if it is for sure 1.85. I think I read somewhere they have a root, but weren't releasing it till after official release.
Someone said at&t hasn't released an update yet, check and see if you bootloader is unlocked, someone did say you may have got a returned phone.
You could also try the one click root and see what happens.

Man I really hope your right that there is an exploit in waiting! I moved to 1.85 by accident and lost root, and I keep hoping a developer gets a break!
here's hoping it is soon!

What happens if we try the one click root? Any damage or bricking?

It will just fail. Won't hurt the phone.

Is it possible to root in the new update?

I had this phone since it came out, and rooted and S-Off and I had tons of issues. Such as Wifi disconnecting and needing to restart the phone in order for it to work, also sometimes Wifi slowed down to a super crawl. Random reboots, etc. But this probably could of been credited to me dropping it all the time and messing up the internals.
I returned it and got a new one, updated to the latest and haven't rooted. Battery life is amazing, but too much bloatware!!!! Can I root and s-off the latest tmobile software? Cause I tried running the older RUU and that failed to install on my phone.

Um... S-off? The One S?
But yeah unlocking and rooting should be no problem, just use htcs unlock method...

You are saying that HTC them selves provided a rooting guide? If so can you provide a link for HTC Unlock method.
Thanks in advance

No HTC does not provide a rooting guide. They simply make it easy for you to unlock the bootloader using http://www.htcdev.com/
Once the bootloader is unlock you can root via a few method. There's plenty of sticky thread in the dev section.
This is just one thread

I recommend you install TWRP recovery so that you will find it simpler to flash roms. No need to fastboot flash boot.img.

Please read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24806342#post24806342 especially the first part of that post, where a reasonable user kindly seems to suggest that a fellow user read very easy to find info instead of starting a thread. You must have posted that in anticipation of this thread?

I see you already created thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31548049, why this one again. Please use "bump" or wait for reply
Did you follow what superchill mentioned in your thread
"Not true, I posted a method in the one click root thread
Just run the one click and put the date forward
If all else fails you would need to factory reset and I should work second try "
I too had same issue and I put the date forward & it worked ḥ- Try the date thing
And in future use existing threads related same topic and please post in them
