[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreino81:
Hi All,

i have used my galaxy 2 for months without any problem, but after an update to official ics 4.0.3 by kies, sometimes i was finding phone on pin request, even just out of my pockets without use any application.

After this i have decided to do a deep cleaning, and install official lph rom, and today i have discovered i still have the problem. :mad: I wonder how it can be even on a completly new and clean rom...

Did it ever happen to anybody?

Any idea about what can be wrong?

Thanks to everyone!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karriere:
Does anyone of you know if the Matr1k 19.0 (CFS) Kernel supports Loop Devices? I'd like to install Ubuntu on my NS :D

And if not, can you suggest me a good kernel that supports it? (If possible I'd like one that also supports Over- and Underclocking and BLN :) )

Thank you for every answer ;)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkhShadow:
Yes it does, as does 19.5

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] john9:
Seems Like a Good Idea.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kennethpenn:
​

What will this do?

This will root your One X, install Busybox, and install the SuperSU application for rights management.​

Instructions

Download and install the HTC mobile phone drivers. [Windows]

Download the mod edit: link removed

Extract root.zip into a directory on your computer.

Plug your HTC One X into your computer via USB. Recommended: Plug your device’s USB cable into the back of your computer if you’re using a desktop PC.

Enable USB Debugging on your HTC One X. Settings >> Developer Options >>USB debugging (checked)

Double click root.bat/root-linux.sh/root-mac.sh to run the script.

Congratulations! Your device will reboot a number of times and then you will have full root access.

Who do I thank?

Don't thank me. Thank sparkym3 for this exploit. Thank crisis187 for testing it out first! Thanks viperboy for the primetime tool!​

Linux/Mac untested. Should be working now. Let me know if there are problems.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Maroon Mushroom:
Thanks Kpenn!

You are a gentleman and a scholar
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] LGSilva:
Inside root.zip there's only "root.img"
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kennethpenn:
Now it should work. File host problem. My bad guys!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] designgears:
Restored with my retail RUU and ran this, worked perfectly!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Maroon Mushroom:
Tips:

-Disable HTC Sync when you do this

-Make sure the port is open

-kill existing ADB.exe processes

otherwise you can get adb server out of date messages and a few other errors
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] LGSilva:
If your adb is giving errors try to disable firewall - that happened to me
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] shadehh:
So this method is anonymous? As in htc wouldnt know?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] doin-it:
Can anyone confirm this is a working root for at&t X ?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kennethpenn:
Should already do that with adb kill-server command.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Maroon Mushroom:
Works on mine.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Maroon Mushroom:
I thought it would too.

Kept failing. Manually ending HTC Sync and adb.exe worked though
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kennethpenn:
This is not a bootloader unlock, if that's what you're thinking. It's just root access.

Yep. Works well. Uploading a proof picture soon.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] doin-it:
Mind if I ask, is any issues w/ it ? I saw another thread (perma root method) but read it caused phone to be sluggish. Is this all good ? Thnx
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kennethpenn:
Yeah I just forgot to delete a file that last time. It's not a problem anymore. ;)

Picture added to OP.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] doin-it:
Cool thnx can't wait to get home from work tonight. Good job bro
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kennethpenn:
Linux/Mac support added, although untested. Let me know if there are problems.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] GameDoctor:
Works! For ATT version

Many thanks! Super User app installed and updated itself. Reports good.

Not sluggish.

Had to stop the sync and adb in task manager to get it to work (or errors) as mentioned above. ESET antivirus wasn't a problem to the process. Windows 7 64.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Artimus009:
Well well well! This is something great to wake up to! This and Chuck Norris not killing me in my sleep. Thank you kpenn and baby Jesus!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Crappyvate:
yeah great. will try on mac later tonight.

Good job :p
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] fungflex:
Just flash the stock RUU to return to stock.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bikeracer4487:
Tried this first day I got the phone, no juice.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ifiweresolucky:
I opened a CMD prompt and used "adb kill-server" first, then followed the directions to the letter, and had success.

Win 7 X64

HTC One X for AT&T
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] :
Awesome work guys, took like 2 minutes and everything is great (except for the stupid red ribbon that flashes, really starting to annoy me LOL) and this will no doubt explode the Development work here!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] UnknownPleasures:
Root will not wipe the device correct?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] fungflex:
Looks like I am out of luck. My mac is running 10.8 so the dos2unix bits needed for mac users are not compatible. And of course 10.8 breaks compatibility with Parallels so I can't boot into windows at all.

Then, finally, my windows work machine, I am using right now doesn't have admin rights and therefore doesn't work either.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] The_Zodiac:
dont you need cwm to flash that?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] co.ag.2005:
it's a .exe. just run the .exe with your phone plugged in.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Root-Maniac:
Borrow a friends computer =)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flightsimmer:
Hmm.... I guess I'm lucky, as I don't have anything that flashes like that.

What I'm wondering, is that when I rooted my phone this morning, I ran into an issue where the last set of ADB commands didn't go through (I ran the .bat file inside a Windows VM on my Mac, and missed the last connect prompt for the VM). I modified the batch file to run the last set of commands again after disconnecting the phone and reconnecting it - I just removed everything up until the "AGAIN!!?!", leaving the command to wait for the phone and reran the script. Once my phone rebooted, I had full Root capabilities and no indication that I had modified it except for having the SU binary in my apps list. Maybe that would have something to do with it not appearing on mine?

Maybe we'll find a fix soon and your red flashes will go away.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kennethpenn:
Fixing the mac/linux stuff now. Thanks for your help!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] :
Ya everytime I make a call or back out of a app, it flashes red around the perimeter of my screen for a second.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kennethpenn:
Now that is an odd problem if I've ever heard one. Good luck fixing it. May have to flash an RUU.

Linux/Mac files should be fully working now.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] The_Zodiac:
also dont install the superuser app from the market, i did this and updated the binary and now root doesnt work at all lol.

gona try using this one click root tool again (uninstalled market superuser)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ptesmoke:
sounds like one of the options under the "developer options" in settings...had my cappy do that a few times on ICS . cant remember what the option was called but go have a look in there see if anything unusual is checked.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JSLEnterprises:
chainsDD Superuser does not work. The only superuser app that works is ChainFire's SuperSU
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] :
Aw crap, really?

The only thing checked is animations. Everything else is off.

Edit: Nvrmnd, "strict mode" was enabled for some reason. I has to disable it and reboot and Im now good. Thanks for your help though.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] The_Zodiac:
just wanted to confirm that this works

thanks guys, really missed having ad away =)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] HyperM3:
Just did this and it worked awesomely! Phone rebooted about 4 times during the process but had SU installed. Gave it permission then downloaded Ti Backup and got rid of the ugly bloatware.

Can I love this phone more?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] beef1218:
Thanks! Worked like a charm!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] catfarm:
Works great

Thanks for this, now to figure out how to disable the capacitive touch button lights. Anyone else have swype beta installed and found that it shrunk quite a bit after this? I sort of like it smaller, though it is kind of ugly. *shrug*
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mrvirginia:
already thanked you on the OP, Kenneth, but wanted to say thanks again after getting home and having absolutely no problems with it :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] joshuaadude:
I am utterly and completely lost on how to root this with my Mac. I understand that I need to install ADB but I dont get anything I just read in there. Nothing works for me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] co.ag.2005:
I'm not sure how to get it working on mac (I used my Windows 8 BootCamp partition) but you don't have to install ADB. ADB is included in the root.zip folder
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] SEscobedo:
I didn't get a superuser request shown in the picture. How can I tell for sure it's rooted?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jtwlbz:
just rooted mine. really easy. i see SU app instealled. so i think mine went well.

then now i don't know what to do with this rooting. lol
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zoltrix:
ChainFire and ChainsDD

wow what the hell lol

Also, whats teh difference between the apps? the way they load the su bins or something?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] joshuaadude:
I am trying it on a PC right now (winXP) and I am getting adb errors. I installed the drivers and the phone is recognized, but I dont have adb or htcsync installed. When I run the command, I see that adb.exe pops up on the task manager but it keeps coming back every time I kill the process. I also tried typing in "adb kill-process" in cmd and it didnt work.

EDIT: SCRATCH THAT I THINK IM IN!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kennethpenn:
Don't install an app at all. The root installation in the OP will install one for you.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Garmig:
I was thinking not to root my ATT One X really soon... but I was tempted and I did it today.

Thanks kennethpenn.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kizax:
hi, do you have the the script for the mac?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ratchetjaw:
Yeah I should have. Took mine back thus morning lol. It's okay though. My International one should be here tomorrow and already have Roms ready to load after I root
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zoltrix:
no i know that

im just asking in general
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JeepFreak:
LOL, don't know much about coding, do you? The line, "kenneth=adb-linux" means that typing $kenneth on future lines is the equivelent of typing "adb-linux". I'm sure he's faster at typing his name than he is at typing adb-linux over and over.

I got this method to work on my Ubuntu Linux box. Instead of dos2linux or whatever, I just opened the linux-root.sh file, copied everything in it, and created a new root.sh file with the same contents. Then I set the permissions with "chmod a+x root.sh" and ran the file with ./root.sh. Everything worked perfectly! I think I saw that Kenneth had updated the Mac and Linux scripts, but if not, try what I did.

Thanks to everyone that made this root possible! I really appreciate it!

Oh, as far as the TAMPERED flag... could somebody try checking for the flag in between reboots so we can see what actually triggered the flag? This would need to be somebody that can root it manually, instead of letting the script run

If we find out exactly what triggers the flag, then we've got a much better shot at turning it off or avoiding it all together.

Thanks,

Billy
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sparkym3:
You may be able to use something like OTA Rootkeeper which will tell you if the device has been rooted (it would also allow you to backup the root so you keep it on the next update).

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] SEscobedo:
Well I did the root and it rebooted around 4 times. The third time after it rebooted, the cmd prompt closed. The phone finished booting up and then rebooted a 4th time. After it rebooted again, the power to my laptop died (ugh). My phone came back up like normal. I see the SuperSU in my Apps. But when I go to install the FMRadio from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1632238, it gives me a 'application not installed' message. So I'm guessing it didn't fully root???

So is it worth re locking the bootloader and flashing with this method or just leave it for now? (Rogers version)

Also there is no .exe in the RUU file. The file is a zip so how would you flash it?

Unzip the file and it'll be a .exe

So, after 3 1/2 hours of troubleshooting trying to get the godamn HTC drivers installed, installing JAVA SDK's, Android SDK's, HTC Sync, and STILL not getting the HTC drivers installed, I gave up.

Went to my girl's place, and it all installed fine on her rig. What a bunch of ****. Proof the universe hates me.

At least I got it done and can now rid myself of bloat and ads. Thank you to kenneth! you are my hero!

Can we get a step by step tutorial for mac users.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] holtenc:
Sounds to me like he may be confusing the root tool kenneth posted (which unzips into many files) and the RUU in the other thread (which unzips into one .exe)

I can run 'adb-mac' but when I try to run 'root-mac.sh' in terminal it says 'line 5: ./adb-mac: No such file or directory' and continues to line 50...

If you want the "tampered" gone, dont you have to flash this to get rid of that?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JSLEnterprises:
you need to relock the bootloader ( 'fastboot oem lock' is the command )

and then you can use this to' fastboot update' the rom back to stock.

"Tampered" will be gone, the Bootloader will say "Relocked"

I think my root went sucessful since I have super user on there, but none of the apps are showing in superuser so is there something that went wrong. Guys please be gentel I came from apple and new to this whole rooting business
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ruqqq:
Hey guys, I'm trying this out on an International One X. Sadly, it doesn't work. Few details might be of interest:

/system mount point is at /dev/block/mmcblk0p12

busybox produced a seg fault

the symlink exploit still works

#1 is easily fixable. For #2, I removed busybox completely and instead perform copy with a 'cat' command. I checked, and the su files were all in place with the right permissions. I then issued the standard clean up commands and reboot. It boots okay. But the whole /system/xbin is cleared after reboot. So is SuperUser.apk.

I'm inclined to believe that with S-ON, the filesystem have a certain "check" and it deletes any unauthorized files. It is also questionable why busybox has a seg fault. Anyway to prove or disprove this?

Any ideas? I'm looking to soft root this baby.

Here is my modified script for Mac / Int. One X:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JSLEnterprises:
It's not ment for Tegra 3 One X's. The North American One X is the International One XL. Thanks anyways though.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ibby03:
kenneth and I just finished trying the root via my mac and got it working, he'll hopefully be releasing an update soon, be patient the guy is good... :p
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ruqqq:
I know it is not. That is why I modified the script to *try* to get it to work.

As stated in my post, I've identified what worked, and what doesn't. Purpose of my post is to get extra hands from more experienced devs around here on what could be missing while I try to figure it out myself.. It's a dev forum after all isn't it? :)

Thanks for the reminder though.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] holtenc:
install an app that requires root (root explorer, Titanium BackUp, etc) and run it. SU app should confirm root access the first time the app is run.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Evolutio686:
I installed titanium back pro, but it also does not show up..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] howsleyd:
Hey guys, for those who tried the original perma-root method in the original thread by crisis187 and can't get the root tool to work, try this:

adb shell

su

mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p33 /system

rm /system/bin/su

After doing this, re-run the tool and you should now have root and SU access.

All the credit goes to kennethpenn who passed this along to me in a PM after I was having trouble with it working after I tried the original method.

Should this be included in the OP for those few of us that tried the original method kenneth?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JSLEnterprises:
I only said it because imho it would make more sense to post this in the teg 3 one x dev forum and send a pm to kenneth regarding it so as not create any confusion.

... It is strange that you're getting the segment fault for busybox though.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ruqqq:
Well, I think I found the answer myself. The S-ON on Int. One X and AT&T One X works differently it seems. Very unfortunate.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zoltrix:
Its not going to "show up" until you do something with it that requires root

use some function that requires root

download a terminal emulator or a screenshot application (even though you dont need one anymore) and see what happens when it reuqests root :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] howsleyd:
Or you can even download a root check app if you want. Search for root checker on the Play Store and there are a few options.

Here is one.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kennethpenn:
Okay folks. I updated the zip file again. Crossing my fingers that Mac and Linux are fully working now. Tested on Ubuntu and it worked like a charm. Essentially the trick, if nothing is working:

or

chmod +x adb-linux

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] leletyM3:
This is great!!! I ll give it a try on my AT&T One X

I have a really noob question for you guys, so if the Bootloader is locked it means we cannot install custom ROMs? Will this ROOT for the ONE X will permit the installation of customs ROMs.

Sorry, I am coming from iOS and my Galaxy Note was my first Android :)
