Hello everyone
I hope someone can help me; I've been reading some topics on here about rooting but confused whether my phone can be rooted or not as I can't still post in the development area.
I have an HTC one x+ uk sim free and would like to root it, does anyone know any good tutorial that will help me with this?
All I did at the moment is backup using the adb command line, is the backup used through that command line a full backup? I'm asking this because if something goes wrong, will that backup me fully restore the device or i need a different type of backup?
Thank you
my phone is sim freem using hasoon's toolkit,which option should I use - I believe is TWRP but confused after reading the posts

Here is a tutorial that works with HOX+ Internation version and will root your phone easily. You just need to find a ROM to flash after you followed the steps in the tutorial. Hasoon2000 even made a video to show you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604439
I'm aware of the video and tutoral but was confused about the option twrp etc.
I used rootboot to root it and checked with root checker,it says is rooted
How do I make full image backup,if I'm not wrong the term is called creating a rom
When I used rom manager it doesn't let me do it,it says I need clockworkmod recovery and that there's no official version for my model. What can I do now to make a rom of my phone with everything
Thanks

If I'm not misunderstood you rooted your phone but didn't flash a recovery? What ROM are you using?

I believe what you said is what I did
I rooted the phone using rootbot the phone was rooted after the process as I downloaded root checker and it displayed that my phone is rooted.
How exactly would I install the clockwork recovery?
I remember using the toolkit provided in the link you gave me but after the reboot the phone shows a read triangle with an exclamation mark.
Go to this link and just install recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34173694

Thank you, my mistake was that I didn't flash recovery, sorry still not familiar with the terminology which is why many things sounds misleading to me.
After flashing with twrp recovery I did try the backup again and it worked, now I got the backup and I think that's all I need so far.
I'm good to go with installing full rom
does anyone know good roms for htc one x+ ?
Elegancia & InsertCoin & Maximus in development
I'm thinking of using the following rom
Android Revolution HD for HTC One X+
There's a topic about this rom but I didn't find any download link; can someone tell me where I can get all the roms and their links.
Also, now that I have a backup, if I install the rom and something goes wrong, by restoring the currenct image file that i've created using rom manager, will I get everything back, included settings, apps etc. right?

Hi
I'd like to know if the tutorials (root, bootloader, roms,...) are fully compatible with the HTC One X+.
Thanks for sharing your knowledges.
Comparable to what, where are the tutorials from ?

Yes same deal pretty much but you must choose the right recovery or you'll soft brick. At&t is different from international HOX+ so you have to get the right recovery to flash SU zip and be able to boot up

OK thanks for your reply. I'll give the information to a friend because the question was actually for him.
That's possible that I'll be back
I've unlocked the bootloader and rooted my HTC One but over time, it quits working. None of the apps can gain root and Koush's superuser states su needs to updated but can't gain root to do it.
A simple reboot fixes it. I'm still running the stock ROM with no need to switch.
Anyone else have this issue?

Hi there, I'm facing the same issue with my HTC One SV, it looses root and a reboot regains the root. Like you, I don't want to change my stock rom, but I'd like to have root access and remove the bloatware (again, which comes back after reboot). Any help is appreciated.

Go to Cyanogen Mod official website ... You can get a whole lot information there... !!! its is the only rom which is providing jellybean 4.1.2 on AMAZE 4g
Please read the "pinned" threads located at the top of the various forums. All of the info you seek is located there. The brief reader's digest version is as follows: You need to download and have a working adb setup. You also need some drivers from the HTC website. While there you need to register as a developer and follow the instructions. If followed correctly they'll give you a binary blob that you need to push to your phone from windows to unlock your bootloader. You'll still be s-on but unlocked. Then depending on which version of the amaze you have and which version of android is currently running on it there are different procedures for attaining s-off, which is a requirement if using a non-T-Mobile US device. After you've gotten those things in order you can begin flashing.
None of this is difficult, but it does require reading on your part, and nobody here is going to hold your hand, especially if they see you haven't made any effort by at least reading the instruction threads.
Just flash the SuperSU.zip file via recovery. For some customs roms, you won't need to root your phone before flashing, your phone will automatically get root access one you flash them. All you will need is having a custom recovery .

Actually you're not quite on point. Without unlocking your bootloader you can't flash a recovery and smartflash on 4ext doesn't work properly without a working busybox and superuser. So after unlocking and flashing or pushing a superuser apk you need to also install busybox too or smartflash can't write to the protected partitions.
I think everyone knows they cannot flash a custom recovery without unlocking the bootloader first.

LOL you'd be surprised what kind of questions get asked here and how often the same ones are repeated, especially in this forum where newbies can post until eligible for the other forums. Look and see how many threads and individual posts are here, the vast majority are the same basic questions asked over and over by those who've never bothered to read the information posts pinned to top of each forum.

There is no need to root just to flash a custom rom, just unlock bootloader, flash a custom recovery and flash the rom. The custom rom will come with root access enabled.

1. A good way to go about rooting your phone would be to have a look around the forum, and see if any help topics have been posted. Even the most cursory look will likely get you what you seem to be looking for.
2. If you have done the above, then do tell us what you have tried, where you got to, and what error'ed out. That would help people help you.
A wrong way to go about this business would be to post a new topic in the help subforum, asking someone to help you root, without having done any of the above.

Sorry about that. I attempted to flash several ROMs and managed to somehow delete my os. I was able to restore my phone with a RUU after 12 hours of trying to bring it back lol. My phone is currently relocked. I would love to put a ROM with sense 5 on my phone, but I am worried about bricking my phone again. I tried to find threads to help me, but I for some reason was unable to find a thread that actually explained how to root, and put a custom ROM on the HTC One X+. If someone could explain step-by-step how to approach this I would very much appreciate the help.

Download and copy across a Sense 5 ROM - I use Insertcoin and its great
Just use Hasoon's toolkit to unlock your phone and flash TWRP. your old unlock.bin should work
reboot into recovery, wipe (dont format your storage), and flash the ROM
flash the boot image
Done

Download whatever recovery .img you wan't, and the custom rom.
Copy the custom rom to your internal storage.
Then just boot into fastboot and use the command "fastboot flash recovery xxxx.img" reboot into recovery and flash rom.

I'm assuming you're not S-OFF or SuperCID.
Hmmmm... Okay here's what to do I need you to follow these exact steps.
Extract the CM10 rom to it's own folder
Take the boot.img and place it in the windroid kernel folder (assuming that there's a kernel folder)
Open the windroid tool and select "Flash Kernel" and select the boot.img from the rom.
Now follow the instructions (I think you have to be in fastboot mode, I'm not sure.)
I think this procedure is right, I'm not entirely sure. I haven't had this problem in almost a year, since I decided to get S-OFF and SuperCID.
OK...the boot animation for cm is still going 2 hrs+ probably the recovery isn't right though no? Flashed last cm official with 5.0.2.9. I'll do as u suggested the for your input. And no idea for s-off sorry this phone is foreign to me

It won't boot, it's stuck in a bootloop because you haven't done S-OFF or SuperCID. It's what makes the custom roms work.
Please try my suggestion. And performing S-OFF is really not that hard, it's very very easy. Although most times I know that it's done on the Asian or Unbranded version of the Amaze that's stuck on GB.
Your recovery is fine, I can assure you that. Only KitKat roms require 4ext version 6 to flash properly.
Another idea just popped into my head, go into your recovery and enter the advanced settings, scroll down and you should see something called "Smartflash"
Make sure that this is enabled.
Do a full wipe (factory reset>cache>dalvik>all partitions except SD card) and then re-install your CM10.
Ok...thanks again for taking the time to help. I know it can be frustrating if the same probably basic issue comes up but phones do vary. Learned something new

Well you see this isn't the same exact problem that everybody else has, ultimately it's the same cause but like you said, it varies.
You're on ICS, from Telsus. Most of the people who create posts are from the Unbranded Amaze crying about their device being stuck in a bootloop or that their phone unexpectedly blew up and killed all their hopes and dreams.
I don't think there's much posts about Telsus Amaze, hopefully someone will see your post and know more than I do and provide more information.

Any kitkat Rom for amaze won't flash on twrp/cwm recovery since those recoveries are outdated and haven't been updated for our device. Since your device is S-ON with ICS Rom Telsus it just needs 4ext touch recovery with smart flash on. Kernel won't flash on cwm/twrp recovery with S-ON since there's no smart flash option in them that's why your phone was stuck in cm boot screen. Good thing you figured it out.

Read my previous posts if you need to flash a kitkat Rom, you just need 4ext recovery with smart flash turned on. That's the safest procedure. Good luck!

If you want to flash any KitKat Rom we have for the Amaze, you need the latest version of 4ext recovery.
I'm really not sure how S-On devices are prepared for this so hopefully just having smartflash on will work. If it gets stuck in the bootloop again, you can try flashing the boot.img and see if it boots up properly
Thx again guys...kitkat installed woohoo and didn't need to flash boot worked from install zip
