Still having troubles booting to andriod os though. was kinda hoping that i can flash a custom rom from recovery and itll work itself out. but i need to let SU do its job in android and give me root access, but like i said its hit and miss with android os. any other suggestions that i can try
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You don't need root to flash ROMs, all you need is TWRP recovery. Do you have that installed yet?

Sent from my Evita.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mpulford311:
yea as a matter of fact i do, and i mounted my sdcard through recovery and have a rom and gapps on there. so do i flash them?? also do i have to be s-off to not get bricked??
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
S-off stops you from bricking when running a jb RUU. It won't stop a brick if you flash a ROM/kernel/radio that isn't intended for our device though. If you make sure you only download things from our device forum though you'll be fine.

Before you flash the ROM I'd suggest making a backup of your current setup, do this by hitting the backup button from the TWRP main menu, then check system/data/boot and swipe to backup.

Once you've done that you can perform a full wipe, hit the wipe button from the TWRP menu, then hit advanced wipe, check everything except internal storage/sd card and swipe to wipe. This step should be performed before you flash any ROM.

Now that you've wiped you can flash the ROM and gapps. Hit install from the TWRP menu, navigate to the ROM zip and select it, then swipe to install the ROM. Repeat with the gapps. After flashing you'll have an option to wipe cache/dalvik and an option to reboot. Wipe cache/dalvik first and then reboot. Now the phone will boot into your new ROM.

Yes it does, and it has many other advantages too but at that point I was talking specifically about bricking and not bricking.

Sent from my Evita.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Yes, because you're s-on you need to flash the boot.img from the ROM zip with fastboot. Extract the boot.img from the ROM zip and copy it into your fastboot folder on your pc. After you've flashed the ROM and/or gapps, reboot to bootloader and connect your phone, make sure it says fastboot on your phone screen. Then you can issue the following command:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

Now you can reboot your phone into the ROM.

kernel recommendation for gummy ROM 4.4.2

Don't know how long it'll stay running. That's why I thought maybe it's a hardware issue
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
I can't answer that. Asking for a recommendation for a ROM or kernel isn't allowed on here. If I recommend one over another it infers that the others are inferior in some way. That isn't fair to the devs. I believe you only have one choice of kernel anyway for 4.4.2 ROMs.

1. When making a backup you only need to select system/data/boot.

2. Basically, yes. If you fully set your ROM up the way you like it and then make a backup you can restore that backup at a later time and it'll be exactly the way you left it (widgets will disappear from your home screen though).

no root?

I'm so confused right now.

I thought when I followed this guide ([ROOT] HTC One X AT&T 3.18)

that I would have root access on my device.

I was able to do the facepalm s-off method and did a custom recovery in order to flash a custom rom (shoredroid 4.4)

and have been running fine for a couple weeks now.

I just installed android tuner app today and its telling me it has no root access and also this root checker app from the play store confirms there is no root.

whats up? did I forget to do something in the sequence of unlocking bootloader/custom recovery/s-off/ ??

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
The 3.18 root method gives temp root in order to give you SuperCID, which then allows bootloader unlocking at htcdev. Root comes via flashing a rooted ROM or flashing a root app (Superuser or SuperSU). Are either of those root apps currently installed on your phone?

No I can't. Asking which ROM is best/most stable isn't allowed. To say one ROM is better than others infers that the other ROMs are inferior in some way. This is unfair to the devs who give us these ROMs free of charge.

Not necessarily. That will only root the stock ROM and will be overwritten as soon as another ROM is installed. Plus, ROMs often come pre-rooted, and sometimes the root app need updating.

Sent from my Evita
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
I don't use a single "battery saving" app apart from Greenify, which isn't really a battery saving app as such. There's a fair bit of debate about them, many people claim they consume more battery than they save. Greenify is an excellent app though, you can "greenify" apps which basically stops them from running in the background while you're not using them. Other than that just make sure your screen isn't too bright, turn data off when you're not using it, the usual stuff.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You just flash the kernel over the top of the ROM. If you flash the ROM again the kernel that's built into the ROM will overwrite the custom kernel. There's a guide to flashing a kernel in the Beginner How-To Guides link in my signature.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
1. In my opinion, no. Even though it has two more cores it doesn't perform any better than our dual core CPU. People are often mislead into thinking that more cores means better but it isn't the case. The amount of times you'd actually need to use all cores is absolutely minimal. Plus the software is constantly fighting to shut down cores to save battery.

2. I can't remember setting up Greenify the first time. Do you have a screenshot?

3. To install any 4.4 ROM you need the following things: firmware of at least 2.14 or higher, modified version of TWRP 2.6.3.0, or latest Philz Touch recovery, or Phoenixita's CWM recovery. Torched kernel isn't absolutely necessary, but I flash it with every ROM I flash.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Yes the RUU should go fine. You don't necessarily need to flash a "stable" build of any ROM, most of the time nightlies are perfectly fine for daily use. The hboot minimum hboot required for any aosp ROM is 2.14, but it's actually the firmware as a whole (that contains that hboot) that's really needed. That's what you're gonna get from running the 3.18 RUU. If you have s-off, SuperCID, custom recovery, you can be almost positive that your phone is unlocked. If you want to make sure just boot into your bootloader and it'll tell you at the very top of the screen.
