Root [AT&T] New rooters discussion

Did you read the whole article? The title is very misleading...

The article just says the new HTC One is set to be released on March 15th.

It does not state any date for the JB update for the One X. :mad:

Did YOU read my post? I said I was a moron.
 
Hey bigCiX, can you post the link and basic instructions when you have a few minutes? I want to do this this weekend.
 
Thanks, hopefully I have time. If I like viperXL I'll stick with it, otherwise I may try cm or aokp

Viper is pretty smooth. The only thing that changed recently is that when u push on the camera icon a lot of the gallery pictures won't show up for some reason. Also.....remember jellybean got rid of mass storage.

So what does that mean for storage? Everything is integrated (probably like raid 0 style) into one thing? Because I would be totally okay with that.

So technically this doesn't go here but it says it failed when i tried to get it to push superSU to the phone... I am hesitant to go to the next step before i confirm that it's there... do you remember what yours said when you tried to do that?

the command prompt script says "permission denied"

ave u flashed SuperSU? Remember u need to copy and paste it to your phone. The SuperSU file is in the folder that you downloads. Check one of those folders that you downloaded. Copy it to the phone and flash it via TWRP.

I looked at this, and it is like reading German. I wish I could do it, but man does that look confusing.

I was definitely like you the first time I rooted. I am a visual learner and the XDA forums made no sense to me. It was not until I watched the how-to videos on OneXRoot.com - Your Source for HTC One X Root, ROMs, tips, and more! did anything make sense. Now I have rooted my phone and am running custom ROM. I got tired of waiting on AT&T. And let me tell you, stock android on the HOX makes this phone crazy fast.

I rooted with Viper XL but kept Sense. It gave me the option to remove it completly.

I'm at that stage. What would you do without sense on there? :P

Hey Big, did you flash the kernel after you installed it? I haven't yet and it hasn't seemed to mind...

I didn't flash it. Have u played around with Google now yet? Compared it with my wife's iPhone (Siri) and Google now is faster and smarter.

I'm still working on getting all my stuff back on it, but i used it to check the weather and it was fast and awesome :D I still feel lame for basically getting lost during a step by step process (see the 5 posts i made last night all over the place) but this is so much nicer than 4.0

How have you found battery life to be? I'm almost done setting up all the essential stuff, then i'll disable everything i don't want/need and reboot

I think battery life is the same if not a tad better.
 
Guitar, here's where I got to. I got the tool kit opened. I think I downloaded the HTC drivers and left the
Website open. I restarted the computer, plugged in the phone. Then I hit bootloader command and nothing happens. I don't think the phone is being recognized.

You're still on ICS right? You need to make sure that you have it set as a disk drive (you have the option under the USB menu in the notification tray) and that you have USB debugging enabled under developer options. Are you following this guide? It has the steps pretty close to the right order. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069904
 
Yeah, I had that enabled. If the phone is recognized when you plug it in, do you get some kind of message about it? It doesn't seem like there is any change on my phone screen.

You should be able to view the sd card if you go into windows explorer/your file browser of choice. Did you restart after installing the HTC drivers?
