Relock your bootloader through fast boot "fastboot oem lock" then download ruu 2.20 or whatever yours is and run the ruu through fastboot usb. Then when done "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin" then your unclocked boot again and just flash a twrp and the supersu again and your done.

Just saying if nothing works this takes easy ten min to do.. after that it's just the flashing twrp and Su that takes the longest.

What ROM?

I had the same issue. I ended up relocking the bootloader, running the ruu, unlocking the bootloader, and flashing CM10.1. I suspect flashing CM10.1 was all I had to do though, as I was on CM10 previously.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] captaincanada84:
Funny enough, I was on 4.1.2 AOKP and flashed 4.2.2 AOKP and it fixed the problem. I didnt have to do the whole relock, ruu, unlock thing though.

Battery stuck at 77% after S-OFF

I was having issues directly after applying S-OFF to my AT&T One X. I successfully completed the steps in the OP and when I rebooted my phone, the battery was stuck at 77% and the phone seemed very laggy. Is there anything that I am missing that it would cause this to happen to my battery? Also, another xda member is experiencing the exact same issues, so this incident is not isolated to only me. I reverted back to S-ON (fastboot oem writesecurityflag3) and the issue was gone.

*edit3*

Took the suggestion of others who were on CM and flashed AOKP. Tried it again and it worked! Not sure what the difference is, but it worked for me. I'm leaving the rest below just in case it may help someone in the future...

+++++++++++++

My attempt seems to be running fine, but I'm not getting S-off.

Everything went flawless up to the last command in step 7. I'm running CM10 so access was denied on my first few attempts - I searched and found the reason for that. I've allowed Apps and ADB in Development settings, but I get no prompt to add "shell" to the the allowed list (this was coming up "denied" before - I'm using Superuser FWIW). The command takes just fine, as in no errors and I did all three in step 7 again just to be sure, but when I reboot, I'm still S-on. I'm sure it's just the littlest thing...

Any suggestions?

*edit*

I ran through all the steps again. I noticed after flashing the OneX file, I get this at the tail end:

I'm not sure if this is one of the expected errors or not, but thought I'd offer up the info just in case.

*edit2*

Looking at it again, I don't appear to be seeing the error "FAILED (remote: 92 supercid! please flush image again immediately)” when flashing the OneX zip file. Not sure why not though

Finally got this to work!

Instructions were easy. Had a problem in that I hadn't used adb in forever and didn't know I needed the latest adb for devices running 4.2.2. Once I got the latest adb version it was cake. Only small issue I had was after it rebooted into android adb wouldn't find my device. I just unplugged and replugged. Then it took my adb commands with the soffbin3 file.

PS: I did this in linux with the terminal if anyone using linux wonders or has any problems!

Just wanted to let you guys know that I managed to flash the very first stock Telstra rom and then took all the OTAs the official way. Three updates all in all.

All the way up to the JB 3.17 version.

S-Off survived the whole process :)

Must admit I was a little worried about it but it went fine.

Now I have all the latest firmware and am back on Viper.

Phone has never been better. Using flars latest kernel with no issues as well.

I don't know if I would recommend that you do this but it proves what a good job S-Off does.

Didn't even have to re-lock bootloader.

Pledge is on its way. Thanks for a great piece of work guys.

This has been confirmed multiple times, by many people and even beaups himself. Think of S-OFF like a global hardware-specific flag. It survives random ROM flashing and even manufacturer/carrier RUUs.

Based on the reports I've read: once you have S-OFF the only way you are going to lose S-OFF is if you specifically use fastboot to set S-ON again.

I had that same issue. From there you should be able to reset phone by holding in the power button. There are a couple things you can do to make sure the device doesn't go offline.

1: make sure all you binaries are up to date on phone = ei superuser, PC= adb, fastboot, SDK

2: RSA key fingerprint security for 4.2.2 could be an issue.

3:if possible make sure your USB is plugged in the back of PC. 3.0 USB have been known to cause headaches.
