2.20 root help - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

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.

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.

Wait so the latest update version from Tmobile can be rooted?

[Q]root for villec2 (4.0.4)

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?
Sent from my stock HTC One S c2
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

[Q][SOLVED] 2.20 rooted, Now on 1.85 / ROOT QUESTION

I was previously on 2.20 but downgraded hboot and RUU downgraded to 1.85.
My question is, since I was previously rooted on 2.20 do I just unlock the bootloader and reflash TWRP? Or do I have to re-root my phone?
and to unlock my bootloader, can I just use the unlock code from when I rooted 2.20? From the looks of reading the guides from redpoints index thread I can't. I just want to be sure.
Just unlock with your old token

flash your unlock token again, then flash twrp, then flash a rom or flash supersu zip
So as long as my bootloader is unlocked I can do everything as normal like install other roms, etc right

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.
