[Q] ATT ONE X with H-Boot 1.09

I just got an One x a couple days ago and today I was going to use the AIO toolkit. I noticed though that my h-boot is 1.09. Does this mean anything? Or am I ok to use the toolkit?
Go ahead.. try the x factor exploit and unlock your bootloader

1.09 is the best because you can flash kernels and radios in recovery

I appreciate all the help. Another question. Since I'm on 1.09 would that be the reason its not changing my CID to 11111111.
Your not special just more phones with 2.20 were shipped out recently...but that comes with hboot 1.14 .... Which you have to flash boot IMG seperately...what's your softwares number ....if it's 1.73 there's menu one clicks you can use if it'd 1.85 jusys search for it its very easy to find... Idk if 1.85 works with the 2.20 exploits absolutely grim would know a lot more than me

That shouldn't be a problem as far as I know. As yes, having HBOOT 1.09 means you don't need to extract the boot.img and flash it separately.
Yeah im on 1.85. And all i see is one way to root it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237. Thats a lot of directions. Damn almost wish I had 2.20 now.

Then update and use x factor? Bootloader can be downgraded so it doesn't matter.

Hey, I using AT&T Htc One X , 1.85 build firmware, android version 4.0.3, h-boot is 1.09. I am not able to root my phone using the above method. The CID wont change and it shows an error. Is there any way to fix it?
You're using the wrong root method. There is one specific to 1.85. The link is in the resource roll up at the top of the development forum.

[Q] How to update to latest HBOOT with S-off

With S-off achieved, it seems like it would be worthwhile to bring everything up to the latest version. Is it possible to just push 2.14 to your phone without relocking or any of that jazz?
Why would you want the latest hboot? It offers nothing useful.
Now the 2.14 users can downgrade firmware to get rid of the touch panel junk

well s-off turns off security.. so 1.14 users have no reason to downgrade, but 2.14 users can downgrade and then RUU downgrade to fix the touch screen issue

because 1.14 and 2.14 hboot prevented kernel/radio flashing in recovery.. with s-off, every partition is unlocked with no write protection.. so now you can flash in recovery on any hboot

Wait, I don't have to do anything special apart from achieving soff to avoid flashing the bootimg separately? Or do you mean that it's now possible, but waiting on a near future fix?

if you are s-off at this very moment... you can flash any rom right now, and will NOT have to worry about the boot.img.. except hboot 2.14, they have a few extra steps
say bye bye to fastboot and flashgui

Would be a good idea to try the updated firmware and see if it makes any diff/
At least for the ones that dont use aosp roms.

no.. the hboot has nothing to do with the touch screen. that's the firmware from something else
So if I ruu.... I Take the highest update, keep s-off, fastboot twrp and flash roms no problems?

Yeah,
but which ruu with the latest firmware?
I dont think there's any available.
I'm on 1.85, hboot 1.09..
I was just gonna run the 1.85 ruu... Take the 2.20 ota (or whichever one is most recent)
Once I'm updated, since I'm s-off, I figure I could easily fastboot twrp recovery... Flash rooted Rom.
Any objections? This is my first s-off device so I'm a noob

nope, no s-off
[16:26] <jcase> lux, get supercid on your device

[16:27] <jcase> no method for s-off at this time then

okay.. so lets just hope that someone will make s-off happen for our device
Maybe start with supercid first
i understood that we need to get supercid before we can get s-off?
So i think we have to start dig around mmcblks with a hex editor to achive that.
i did a little search and i think it could be somewhere in /misc, but don't let my n00biness guide you wrong. they have it in S4 on mmcblk04. i did same mod to my HOSs3 but cid didn't change so the S4-method doesn't work . Does anyone have any knowledge about the whereabouts of the cid?
yes, superCID is starting point for getting s-off

In fact, with this method cid will change. But spl will re-write it back at next boot. So it is not mmcblk0p4.

Just sitting there and doing nothing won't do anything. If you have basic knowledge of the Android/HTC filesystem and some adb commands you can try different things if they work. I'm searching on the internet how other HTC devices got supercid and I try the same thing on the One S. But it's not working out well because of the r/w bug on Trickdroid 6.

First off, if you're s-off running an ruu will not brick your phone. So, just run an ruu, relock, and generally s-off doesn't void warranty because some units ship with it stock.
