You would be able to re root 1.85 if you decided to update.

This is in the development section. If you are unlocked on any ruu 1.73 or 1.82 and rooted already with supercid you can update and re root. if however you were unlucking and didnt unlock using supercid before updating this is when you cant re root 1.85. 1.85 is rootable for people in your situation.

check it out: here
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bobtentpeg:
No, you can't root 1.85. The exploit that was used has since been disabled serverside by AT&T
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] eraste:
You cant if you have not unlocked your bootloader before updating this is correct. But if you have an unlocked bootloader on 1.73 or 1.82 with SUPERCID (important) yes sir you can root once updating to 1.85 ( currently running 1.85 rooted unlocked clean rom 2.0).

Now if you did not unlock and jumped the gun and updated to 1.85 you are as of now stuck with no root. The link i provided in the previous post explains this root for 1.85, all it is people is flashing superuser thorough CWM once you unlock after updating!

edit: you must unlock on 1.73 or 1.82 with supercid before updating (this is the difference for us on 1.85 rooted unlocked etc and those who jumped the gun and didnt unlock)

just rotted on 1.73 what are the best steps to go on from here? i want to remove bloat but keep reading its not safe or that atnt wont let me update, ect TiBu wont even let me freeze things on the free version lol besides that whats the most practical or thigns to speed up the phone i can now do once rooted

worked flawlessly on my rogers one x! Computer is running windows 8 consumer preview. Thanks a million for making rooting this phone so simple!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bloodrain954:
I'm running 1.73, everytime I check the bootloader it just says "TAMPERED" and locked, I searched the thread but can't find anything useful. Surely I'm not the first person with this problem?

Hboot is 1.09 if that matters.

Ignore me. After searching through numerous threads I found the app I used does not unlock the bootloader. On a side note, how long does it take HTC to send you the email after you register?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] joho5:
is this compatible with 1.85?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] robertmoore208:
Nope , no current exploit for 1.85

Help Me NOT make the same mistake (Picking Up A One X Today)

All:

I'm a bit confused on the RUU, Bootloader etc etc. All I know is when I get my phone today I want to root it. And eventually be able to install roms. For now ROOT is most important to me. In the past I thought you could get root without unlocking your bootloader. So that's why I'm confused I'm not a noob to rooting, just confused by this thread.

I'm picking up my One X today. Please tell me what to DO and what NOT to do as it seems from my reading some folks are stuck without root because they did something.

I don't want to make that mistake, or are you simply saying if I have firmware version 1.85 I cannot root yet?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dharani1234:
Yes... when you get a phone today ...goto settings -> about phone.

If it says 1.85 you are stuck on 1.85 ( locked and unrooted ) until someone finds an exploit to root it ...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DeathmonkeyGTX:
I would be amazed if your new retail box device has either of the ota updates. So long as you get your hackerizing done and never ever flash an ota update you will be good.

Also, look if att is blocking root server side, why not leave the sim out or take a laptop somewhere with no signal or make a ghetto Faraday cage?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] derrickonline:
Thanks for the info guys. Just what I wanted to know.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] derrickonline:
Thanks.

FYI, got my One X it was at 1.73. I rooted using these instructions no problem. Now I guess the key is NOT to update until an exploit has been found for 1.8x right?

Can I clockwork mod this ho'? :D
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jammysunny:
Hi Guys, downloadlink doesnt function:(

Does this Root be positive onRom 401.2??
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] freshleysnipes:
Now that you have root you can unlock your bootloader.

Most of the custom roms available in the dev section are based on 1.85, so I would recommend updating before trying to flash anything. But you must unlock your bootloader BEFORE updating to 1.85!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wrecked77:
Wait.. there are roms for 1.85 but there is no root for 1.85??? I'm on 1.85 and I have an unlocked bootloader..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] eraste:
If your on 1.85, custom recovery and you unlocked your bootloader you can follow this post to get root. It's simply flashing super user in recovery http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1673935
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wrecked77:
Everytime I try and go into recovery I see a black screen with a phone and green arrows..which then turns into a phone with a red triangle with an exclamation point inside..what does this mean?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] eraste:
You do not have a custom recovery, there are two available both listed in the development section, one is called CWM easiest to install, the other TWRP,

Question, i have unlocked the bootloader and i'm fully rooted....but technically i'm not, i am not showing ADB root. Am i the only one??? would be nice to back up my phone via android commander or modify stuff from my computer and push it to the device, but i can't.....what do i need to do to get adb root???
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] neworleans-7:
So lemme see if I understand where I am right now. I rooted when I was on 1.73 and I spoofed the CID but I didn't unlock the bootloader before I updated to 1.83. Does that basically mean I'm screwed? :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] eraste:
1.82 no just make sure you have supercid and you should be able to unlock via HTC dev.

1.85 as long as you already changed the cid to supercid you should be able to unlock.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] XsMagical:
as long as you have super cid you are safe. I ran the 1.85 ruu so i could have the new radios, unlocked via htc dev, flashed a new recovery and flashed a rom. thats it

this did not work for 1.29.401.11 which I just got from t-mobile hungary.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jh787:
Mine is still locked.

Unlocking is not required but it does bring up the "tampered" flag in bootloader.

After rooting you can change the cid and flash a generic ruu if necessary.

This will remove the flag but you will also lose root.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] derrickonline:
Clarification Once More

freshleysnipes or anyone. If I follow you, I have 1.73 rooted. I CAN update to 1.85 without loosing root but I MUST UNLOCK the bootloader BEFORE upgrading to 1.85 to keep root?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] deaconj:
Remove Root?

I'm trying to run the 1.85 AT&T OTA, but the installation keeps failing. I'm not sure why, but I want to narrow down the margin of error. I used this method to root, can you guys tell me if there is a link somewhere to unroot (if this method was used)?

BTW: I am still on stock with the locked bootloader as well.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zaisaroni:
It's possible to keep root when doing the OTA update from 1.72.

Another member tried it first, and I decided to guinea pig my device as well in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1695955&page=24 .

Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper is all you need. Install, run it, and "backup" your root. On my device I had to restore the root after the 1.85 OTA. Root checker has verified this works for me. Time to start modding..

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] robertmoore208:
It's stated all over the site that it indeed does not work for 1.85, hence the 1.85 think tank for getting root :)

Great answer, but a few more things ...

ok, this one is new. i have installed the drivers and stuff, and when i plug my phone in everything is fine. but when i enable debugging, i lose "android phone", says driver not installed. adb detects nothing, htc sync same... What the hell do i gotta do to get the driver installed correctly?!:confused::confused:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mrvirginia:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] LNKNPRKFN:
same result for both, both are PERMROOT, the advantage to the superboot is that it was early, the disadvantage with the superboot one is that you have to unlock BLer and thats a terrible thing right now...now the advantage to this method is you dont have to unlock BLer and you have PERMROOT with no disadvantages

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mikelebz:
So this is just root. We still can not flash custom recovery, correct? Thus no custom roms/kernel yet. Will performing this root method hinder one to use any bootloader unlock tool that may be released in the future?

dunno what firmware i would be on if i buy it in these days, and dunno what people are talking about 1.85 and 1.73 sorry ....

and if i unlock bootloader on one x will i lost drm files in it aswell and something might stop working?! like on xperia arc s if i unlock bootloader it stops its track id to work then we have to install it as an app from market then it works, etc.

would really highly appreciate the help! hope someone reply soon, tc

I bought my One X today and it was on 1.73. This process did work to root without unlocking the bootloader. I don't know if the unlocked bootloader would break any apps since I promptly flashed Clean Rom DE.

If you get one with 1.82 there are still root and boot loader options for the time being.

Basically when you get it do not update. Check your version in settings>about phone first. Rooting and unlocking is just a bit easier on 1.73
