[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dmac0o1:
Hello everyone!

Here's the short version:

I want to s-off my htc one xl using rumrunner. However, every time I run the sudo ./sujo (linux) script, I always get the same error:

ERROR: run rumrunner again and READ (no adb connection to device. Debugging on? Drivers?)

I have checked my fastboot and adb connections and they all work fine. I have also enabled root permissions for adb and applications, usb debugging and the 'adb over network' options in the 'developer options' menu of CM12.

Here is a more detailed step-by-step of what I do:

First, I check the adb connection with "adb devices": (I've also tried other commands, just to make sure everything's OK)

:~/Android/rumrunner_HTC_0.5.0$ adb devices
List of devices attached
HT248W301724	device

Second, I run the "soju" program in the rumrunner download file:

:~/Android/rumrunner_HTC_0.5.0$ sudo ./soju

I tried running the rumrunner script before flashing CM (i.e. while I was still using the stock HTC rom) and it worked all the way up to the "your phone is not rooted" part, at which time I flashed TWRP recovery onto my phone and flashed straight into CM (figuring it wouldn't make much of a difference).

I don't really want to get into the whole RUU mess. Anyone know what's going on here? How do I fix this adb issue? Help? :)

EDIT:

I fixed the adb problem I encountered above by using the following command:

adb kill-server

and then running

sudo ./soju

however, on CM12, I could only get to this point in the rumrunner program:

WTF: What are you doing?

I wasn't sure what the problem was, so I downloaded and ran the "sunshine" (formerly "firewater") apk on my phone (I didn't pay for it, I just downloaded it to see what it was about). Then, in the initialisation process it produced an error saying that my current rom is not "similar enough to the stock rom" to run the program successfully. Then, I looked for a "more simiar rom" -- in the end I flashed Kickdroid 5.0.

After flashing Kickdroid, I selected the required options (usb debug, supersu -- which I flashed manually, etc.). Then I checked to see if adb was running (it was), and then ran the kill-server command listed above. After that, I ran rumrunner with no issues!

adb kill-server
