[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wdkingery:
How did you exchange the phones? Att wants $35 from me for an exchange..

Also, in light of the new OTA, it's advised you use the manual method

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RussianMenace:
Looking at your code above it looks like as if it worked (says Superuser.apk already exists) . Did you actually try an app that requires root? Like titanium backup?

HTC One X 4.0.4

Does this work with the AT&T one x with the 4.0.4 update? If not, does anyone know how I can unlock the bootloader on my phone? I really want jelly bean. Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ckombo:
December! I can't believe your persistence didn't pay off. I don't know what to say. Sounds like you were doing everything the same way I did.

Try setting the date back to today by allowing the network to automatically set time and date.

Run the bat file and check for the update again on your phone.

Start adding days again and rerunning the bat file.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] aooga:
I got it!

What you have to do is say OK to the update and while its downloading ( I actually had to disable my routers connection so it wouldn't actually download) then run the .bat. that worked for me...maybe that's the way now?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RussianMenace:
If you're already on 4.0.4 (aka 2.20 OTA) you are unfortunately hosed at this time as far as getting root, which inadvertently means you are hosed as far as unlocking the bootloader as that requires root.

Sorry bud. Good news is that 4.0.4 is actually a pretty dang good update all in itself.

---------- Post added at 12:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:42 PM ----------

You could have just put in in airplane mode :P . Though in my case, once I started to push forward the date, the OTA would keep failing to download, so all was well in the end. I did enable airplane mode at alI times when booted to the OS once I had root so that it wouldn't have a chance to update, that is until I unlocked bootloader, loaded TWRP and a custom rom.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wdkingery:
I check this thread like my life depended on it :(
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] XNine:
Uh, what? No, you can't. You need root to unlock the bootloader. Unless your bootloader is already unlockedand your token still works.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mjwitt2:
Oops. You're right. My mistake. I had root to unlock my bootloader before I updated to 2.2 and borked myself. Apologies.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nhshah7:
Me too, dude. Me too.

I bought mine last Thursday so I'm debating just taking it back and saying there was some issue with it to exchange for another one. That way I can unlock and root and flash a dif rom and never look back!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wdkingery:
Yes, this. But there is a $35 restocking fee sticker right on the box.. I'd rather pay someone to root 2.20 $35 for the rest of us if I could

But I do have an LTE device that has been rooted and has tethering, and we don't even have LTE out here yet so..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nhshah7:
I don't think there is a restocking fee for defective devices...I called the store I bought it from and they didn't mention the fee when I said I want to exchange it because I'm having "wifi issues".
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] eraste:
Restocking fee at 99% of retailers refer to items that are being returned for money because customer does not want it. A return for defect is different and covered under law you cannot be charged a re stock fee, this is why when you buy items such as grills, etc from Wal-Mart they say do not return to store of purchase for warranty issues contact manufacturer. If this notice Is not posted they cannot refuse a return for defect.

I just want to confirm that this will work on the Aussie Telstra One XL. Ive read through most of the thread but cant find anything specific..

Thanks guys in advance
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] XNine:
Did you take the box and charger and stuff with it? Or did they just take the phone back and give you a whole new kit?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nhshah7:
Returned EVERYTHING and they gave me EVERYTHING new :)

This worked for me! Had to run it twice. First time it rebooted but couldn't remount/gain access. Second time it worked. After the script finished it restarted 3 times. Since then it keeps telling me there's an update I need to download but I keep hitting back. Time to get to unlocking :D
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] XNine:
Awesome. I'm going in there first thing tomorrow before classes. Tomorrow night, I should be Rooted, unlocked, and Rom'd, like I should have done in the first place. Never just Rooting a phone ever again. Gotta go all the way :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nhshah7:
What method did you use to unlock your bootloader?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] UseYourIllusion:
I did mine with the One Click SuperCID script, got my token from HTCDev.

And you're on 1.85, right? Did you install the HTC Drivers?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] UseYourIllusion:
Keep setting your date forward, I had to do it several times before it worked properly.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gago_89:
yes.... htc drivers are installed
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] XNine:
Manually enter your date in system settings (2 days ahead)

Reboot phone

Plug your phone in, make sure it's in CHARGE ONLY mode

Head to System Settings, Developer Options, make sure USB Debugging is enabled

Go back to System Settings and let your phone sit there.

Run ADB

Run Root Script

When it says "Waiting of Software Update Check" do that through System Settings>Software Update>Check for update

LEt your phone reboot SEVERAL TIMES and do not touch it unti everything is complete.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gago_89:
I press button "check for updates" then "checking for new sw available now" and the phone do nothing :(. I'm so sad
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] XNine:
Try one of the other Rooting methods around the forum. As long as you're on 1.85 and you follow the instructions I gave, you should be good to go.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gago_89:
yes i have 1.85.... but i don't no why the stupid software update don't work :/, I change the date, restart..., check again, and nothing happens! T_T :(
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] XNine:
Mine did that a few times as well. Try switching your USB wire to a different USB port, preferably on the back of your PC.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gago_89:
Wow, now I have other errors.... :(

now whattt T_T
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RussianMenace:
In your previous posts it looks like Superuser.apk already exists, have you run any apps that require root to check if it worked?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] XNine:
^What Russian said. You may already be rooted. Download rootchecker from Play store and see if it OK's root.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] akates:
I went through the same thing the other day and thought something was wrong. Turned out I was rooted already and it never gave a confirmation so I kept trying to run the script. I'm guessing if you do rootchecker you'll find you're already rooted!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] XNine:
Well, at&t wouldn't give me a new one since its over

30 days since original purchase. Guess I'll see if the service center will. Guess we'll see this weekend. I have a feeling 2.20 is gonna take quite some time to crack.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gago_89:
thanks guys!! :D I'm already rooted, and i have the bootloader unlocked, now i have other problem :(

I installed GooManager, and press button "reboot in recovery mode" and the phone showed up a phone with an exclamation
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RussianMenace:
You need to install custom recovery (TWRP). Exclamation is the stock recovery.

Download the above file. Turn off your device. Turn on the device and keep holding volume down until a menu shows up. Select fasboot from the menu list. Plug the device into your computer. If you have the right drivers installed, your screen should now say FASTBOOT USB.

All good up there!!!

how can I do this! "Run the following command via the command line:"

Hey gago, check your Facebook messages. I sent instructions there. Should help :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sk806:
Sooo...

People are returning phone with 2.2x and then rooting the 1.85 ship ROM, is that the deal? I got my phone replaced because I dropped it in the water and the asshat at the store upgraded it for me.

I want to get back into developing ASAP, so any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Steve
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] XNine:
That's pretty much the deal. If you have 1.85 you need to root, unlock, and ROM it so you don't have to put up with HTC's policy of making it a locked down iPhone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sk806:
Thanks. I was more wondering the details, I say upgrade stinks, need to be within 30 days, etc.? Thanks again....
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wdkingery:
From what I understand you can just go in to an att store no later than 30 days after purchase and say "I got white wanted black" and pay $35 restocking fee and walk out with a new one. Random occurance they might try to update for you just make sure it dont happen.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] eraste:
Roots being worked on but no ETA, people say they took phones back that came with 2.20 may have to invent a "white lie" but you'd be better off with 1.85 for now anyway probably.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nhshah7:
That's what I did. Said my phone had issues with my wifi router at hpme. if you do this and just exchange for same color there's no fee.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] d3thstalker:
Okay so I did the following:

1. Run the script.

2. Run AT&T update

My phone reboots and the CMD window outputs the following:

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here, but I have even tried forwarding my clock two days ahead.

EDIT: My bad, but I should have searched the thread more. It seems like it's already rooted after checking with Root Check.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] zounduser:
Did u update the binaries? Open up super su, and update binaries. I had to run it three times. I got super su but not the binaries. Eventually it wouldnt let me check for updates anymore, after canceling the at&t one. Heres how i got past it. I just factory reset my device and ran again......bam..... got root! So if anyone has problems, back up sd card, and factory reset, and rerun. Got it on the first try after doing this.

I didn't do all that. After checking with Root Checker whether I have root access, I unlocked my bootloader, flashed a new recovery followed by a custom ROM, and then updated the binaries. BAM! It all works perfectly now.

I keep getting permission denied when I try to run the root. I am on 1.85.502.3 with usb debugging on.

do you have the Android SDK installed on your PC? Java ? the correct windows drivers? if you are plugging this on the front side USB ports... hook it up to the back directly to the motherboard. I was having problems with connection too... i switched my cable to the port in the back of my PC and voila... it works... i guess my front USB ports dont have a good connection because when i plug in a flash drive... sometimes it would come up as "did not install your device properly... or not read at all.

^THIS! You can LET IT download the update... its a large file... it will ask you later to push the update which you can postpone... at that point you can again do a Factory Reset and try again.

Make sure fastboot is disabled!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BIGDADDYXXL:
Thank trying it now.

Edit: everything works downloaded TIB it asked for permission and granted. Thank The Device GODS. Also thanks to all that helped me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] XNine:
Do not let it download. The risk you run of not being able to root is greater than letting it download.

Make sure you clear downloads from the download app in the drawer, clear cache from Updater.app, and set your date forward two days. Try again. It took me a couple of hours to get this script to work on my phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dan09wrx:
LOL i let mine download.... IT WILL PROMPT to ask you to push the update... DO NOT CLICK NEXT... click back or postpone it... You can still do a factory reset here... and when its done... you can recheck for update again and it will redownload the OTA. I did it this way probably about 5 times.

JUST DON'T PUSH THE OTA
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] BIGDADDYXXL:
After you are rooted, I strongly suggest you unlock your bootloader immediately!!

I picked up the HTC One X because it was a great deal at the time and is a great phone. Now I want to try some other ROMs and am running into roadblocks. I have the most up to date OTA update. I suspect that this is a problem as I can't access root.

Any new updates or code out there which will work?

Plug in your phone

Launch the .bat file

Go to settings > ATT update > check for updates

The phone should/will reboot

The script will have some output then close

Open the script again

The phone and script will interact

Auto reboot

Auto reboot

Auto reboot

...

...

Phone will be rooted once the reboots stop

That's how it worked for me.

I now realize there is no MIUI :(
