what about installing the bug2go.apk and using the atrix hd exploit? will bug2go.apk install on the one x's? maybe att's motorola bug2go.apk?

just a thought.

the ruu also does the signature check when trying to update rom, now I never got an update rom failed msg when I alter the main ver, mine just hangs at the HTC alternate screen .. it looks at the build prop for the keys, wondering if altering that and making the key super long, long enough maybe to error out the key check can it cause a type of overflow or memory error allowing moments to alter the wp dir?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] GuyIncognito721:
No. The exploit uses Motorola bug reporting software our phone doesn't have.

Root achieved

I have successfully rooted the HTC One X on AT&T running build 2.20. I will need another tester before I'm able to publish. If you are willing to be a tester, please post a reply saying you are volunteering to test, and I'll contact you via PM or email. Please do not email or message me.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Mister J:
Care to tell us how? It would be more beneficial to the community if there's more of us using your method rather than having a select few testers. I also would like to see some screenshots or something to show you're telling the truth.

Not doubting, but some pictures or anything would be nice to see if you're legit.

Also, good job if you're telling the truth!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] :

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xaey:
because I'm sure even the slightest hint will give the whole exploit/method away to those who understand. I'm sure he's doing the right thing here to get the credit deserved. I really hope this is a sure thing tho, as I'm probably sure many of us are. just be patient. He said he'd publicize it if it works with others.

Im willing to test too if need be, but it would appear that you have plenty of testers already. So ill just wait n see.

Hopefully this works finally, those testing please give us an update
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Gandalf:
This would definitely be an amazing breakthrough for us HOXL users. If it is indeed a successful root, then congratulations and damn good job.

As far as proof goes, I would very much like to see proof as well. Perhaps post a video of you showing that root is enabled on the stock 2.20 AT&T firmware and then run some apps that require root to function such as Root Explorer, Titanium Backup, etc. Maybe just use Root Checker that's free on the market

Just curious but is this root method legal? Since aren't we somehow tricking the HTC server into granting an unlock token for our device? or something like that
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wlmeng11:
It uses SuperCID to trick HTC that's it's not the AT&T model.

No one's going to arrest you for rooting YOUR phone that you paid for, if that's what you're worried about.

Nope worst that will happen is a voided warranty
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] TheEmpyre:
I understand that my phone is my property and I can use it however I please -- I guess I was just making sure this wasn't somehow a "hack" on HTC's servers to grant an unlock token or something...sounds ignorant but I don't understand how these exploits are achieved but suppose I didn't want to do anything questionable just to push a few custom ROMs to my device for fun.

Thank you for answering my question....on to the root!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Poetique:
Legal? What... you didn't notice the van parked outside of your house all day?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:
It probably breaches the user agreement with AT&T, and technically they could cancel your account and hit you with an ETF for the phone. But they'll never do that because they don't want to lose customers. The only time I've heard of it happening was with someone who jailbroke their iPhone to tether and used like 100GB of data a month for a couple of months.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] TheEmpyre:
Good to know, they already tried to add on tethering for me for using a tethering app...somehow they caught onto it even though I stayed below 2GB data....who knows...but I have unlimited anyways, one of those lucky grandfathered in users

Any ideas or testing as to whether this will work on 2.40? (Telstra HTC ONEXL - Software 2.40, Android 4.0.4, Sense 4.1)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] :
Really the only reason this was needed was so At&t one xl owners could spoof the cid to unlock the bootloader via HTC dev. With a Telstra one xl you can go direct to HTC dev and unlock the bootloader then root the phone.

Sent from my Nocturnalized One XL using Forum Runner
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] bpear96:
The telstra one xl can be unlocked from HTCdev without changing the cid. What this exploit does, is change the CID on AT&T devices to 111111 (superCID) allowing its bootloader to be unlocked on HTCDev, and then inturn rooted, roms installed etc. But with non AT&T One XLs this exploit is not needed to unlock the bootloader (HTC blocks AT&T CIDS from using the bootloader unlock tool)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Nocturnal_50:
No need to use it on the telstra variant, just unlock your bootloader and you are good to go, however if you are after temp root I am waiting for my 2nd telstra HOXL to arrive to work on something in that aspect
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] auspony:
I understand the unlock bootloader and flash rooted ROM approach. But I am asking as I currently am still running stock ROM and don't necessarily want to unlock bootloader yet. Have just updated to 2.40 and just want to get Titanium Backup working :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] :
You can just flash an su zip package from recovery and then download the supersu app

Back in May 2011 Peter Chau said they would no longer lock boot loaders on HTC devices.

Of course that was a lie, but it did begat the HTCdev.com bootloader unlock

I blame AT&T, not HTC. But thats' my opinion, take it or leave it.

I blame both companies, but AT&T is clearly behind the HTC Dev unlock being blocked.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] omario8484:
So in this situation is it at&t that has the final say? If so I don't think this baby will ever get root ...or can HTC let us unlock if they really want to

If you ask HTC about unlock, you'll get a response very similar to this:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] eraste:
Fail

Just tried same response, error 160 mid not allowed. Its HTC's phone they are allowing ATT to dictate what security measures are in place. Which I think is a poor move, anytime you develop something and then give a re seller authority over it those items usually fail, maybe this is why the HOX is now only $75 at a local walmart here ( 2year contract).

Apple would tell ATT to shove it ( did this when contract for Iphone exclusivity ran out) took THEIR creation to other carriers hence banking more money!

HTC needs to grow a pair and say hey this is out phone not yours you simply re sell it!

Is it possible to root the device using an nfc exploit? I've been reading on how some hackers could trigger a webpage share that diverts to another site that could compromise the device security.

Not saying it's an ethical solution for root lol, but it is quite interesting to think of the possibilities. I have seldom touched upon nfc experimentation, and there is a dedicated topic for it, but maybe there is a way to exploit the way nfc handles shares on the device... Just a thought
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 18th.abn:
I didnt harp anything. When 1.85 came out we were stuck without root for a LONG time and there was a LOT of people jumping ship because of it. People saying that it was unrootable ect.... but then........root......im simply making a joke because people are in that position again.......

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wlmeng11:
The AT&T One X never had an unlockable bootloader.

1.85 and all previous versions were all rooted by exploits.

^^^^^Yes....because we need root to change to supercid, thats how bootloaders get unlocked thru htcdev.

In a nutshell all im saying is a lot of people completely gave up hope last time we lost root. And then beaups was able to find an exploit. There are brilliant people working on it believe me. I just tested a root method this afternoon(tho i dont fall in the brilliant category) and nothing, but people should just remain positive and keep thinking, all ideas are good ideas. I havent owned a hox for a month n a half and im still infatuated with exploiting the damn thing. Its a disease

Trying to work on root

Quick question, in order to obtain root, do you HAVE to write within the /data/local/ or just in /data/? Or can you write the files anywhere onto the system and be able to obtain root? Sorry about this. Thank you for your guys' commitment with this.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 18th.abn:
Su is binary, so it has to get into the bin/xbin directory. /data, /data/local is just the most common path of being able to exploit in the past
