How to unlock HTC one x on Rogers

My brother recently got an HTC one x and I wanted to unlock his bootloader, root it and install a custom Rom for him bit am a little insure of the proper steps. I have a one s and am very familiar with abd and using twrp. A one click would be great.

Well I got up today proud of myself for having made the decision to go ahead and root my AT&T HOX.
I have a 32 gig 10 inch Toshiba Thrive that is rooted running ICS. Then I discover there are several HOX models....and several firmwares.With sweaty palms I swiped one finger down and shaking almost too much to hit ABOUT scrolled on to the bitter truth of 2.20.502.7...
This phone cannot be rooted.
Now I must try to gather myself and use the technique I am lacking the most in.... Patience.
So Fredfly, I'm sure someone here can tell you better than I but as far as I can judge if your bro's firmware is like or higher than mine just take a number and have a seat.

I'm in the same boat Jonathan... just got mine this week and it's 2.2. Does anyone know if there is anyone working on rooting 2.2?

People are working on it but that doesn't mean it will ever be cracked. We can only hope.

What version of the HOX do you have? The AT&T version? If the firmware is below 2.20, then you have a plethora of methods you can use if you simply look in the dev section. If you're so inclined, you can use the guide that I wrote for the Telus version in my signature. The attached software should work for the AT&T as well as the Telus and Rogers versions as well.

If you got your one X from Rogers then you're fine. First go to htcdev.com to unlock the bootloader. Then flash TWRP recovery (evita version) . Then put the zip file for a custom rom into the sdcard, boot into TWRP recovery, and install it. Then do a factory reset from TWRP and reboot. As a first rom to try, I recommend CleanROM or VIPER XL.

Hey guys thanks for the advice. I looked at HTC dev and its exactly the same as the one s. I checked my brother's firmware this weekend and its 1.8... I will attempt to root and unlock this weekend. Also thanks for the Rom recommendations. I will probably put viper on his phone as I am familiar with the venom team and know they do great work.

Its not firmware 2.20 and above. Its only firmware 2.20 that is unrootable (at this time). Its all about AT&T. Every other carrier is allowing the bootloader to be unlocked via HTCDev.com.
There have been a few version numbers higher than 2.20 (2.23, 2.29, 2.33). AFAIK, they can all be bootloader unlocked.

Help with root?

Hey what's up guys this is my first time posting in thus forum.. I'm not new to HTC devices, not new to flashing ROMs and what not.. I have a cousin that recently got dooped on a crappy trade, and now she's using an Inspire 4g. I've searched you guys threads, its hard to tell what's what, but I have a phone that's having a random reboot about every 7 minutes or so. So of course I factory reset from boot loader, it is s-on with 2.00.0030 hboot. Its running android 2.3.5 with software 3.20.502.52 71ord.
Can anyone point me to the most recently updated RUU for this software, or point me to a recently updated root method? I see you guys have s-off.. That would be sick also lol.. Any help is MUCH appreciated.

That Is the latest att update. To root that device, there's only one tool: The advanced ace hack kit..find it here:
Ñhttp://tau.shadowchild.nl

K I had already downloaded that.. I've read a whole bunch on that hack and I don't want to be stranded with a bricked device that isn't mine. Just looking to root, unlock, install recovery and flash some aosp goodness.. I'm no stranger to fastboot
Or would you have any ideas for my random reboots? I'm noticing a pattern of it rebooting when it sleeps.. Maybe 2 minutes after its locked

Have You flashed the insecure boot imege from the site first? If You did, Check that in the hack kit folder You have the zergrush file in the tools>bin folder. If it Is not there, then disable the anti virus And re download the hack kit agAin

Thank for reply but I'm confused.. how am I able to flash something with bootloader locked and no root? I don't remember seeing that in the effin manual lol. I'll do some more research and give it another go. I read it's more successful with abuntu so ill try it when I boot it up

Yeah, very helpful post bro.....what FAQs, from where? the hack kit is not longer hosted here, so....maybe you should read a bit more before answering...:good:

Yea when I get home I'll unlock and try to flash that. I I read in another thread there was success with that method. working with a new device is tough when a few things aren't really supported lol. I'll report back this afternoon, but thank you for your time and patience.. I bad thing is if we need team viewer you'll have to teach me that also haha.. my wife won't let me use her laptop with phone stuff, so I'm using an old desktop with Windows XP professional lol

He bricked it. SuperCID and jb update = brick. Thats yhe reason you search and read BEFORE flashing. Just because u find a file don't mean it should be flashed carelessly. and just here in q-a there has to be a easy 15-20 threads on the 3.17/3.18 updates bricking devices

well on a positive not it is now ready to be returned to HTC....

I am an intl One X user but one of my mates has the ATT One X. He upgraded to JB but now he wants to root but seeing here there is no root exploits so far for JB. Can he return to ICS in anyway and then root?

There are root exploits for JB.

[Q] how do you s-off AT&t htc one x plus

First of all I would like to thank all the developers for all their hard work.
I have an issue. I had soft bricked my Telus HTC One X+ a while ago. I have got it up and going again on wifi. But when I put a sim into it does not have any signal. I have checked to make sure the APN is correct. have tried all the APN's for telus and still no luck. So all I can come up with is there is no radio on it. So my question is is there a way to s-off the phone or another way to flash the radio onto it. I have tried an ruu.exe. But I can not find the newest update (which is the 3.15.xxxx) that is a exe to flash the phone. And since I do not have s-off I can not flash the zip it just keeps failing. I thought that way I would have a radio again on the phone. my H-BOOT is 1.40.0000 radio 2.14.55.11. Any help would be appreaciated.
