Any way you can explain that in a way that someone who knows nothing about rooting and bootloader unlocking and development would be able to understand.

Basically our phone is branded as the att version. With a cid number that does not match the one that the dev edition possesses. The only way we can spoof the cid to match it is to achieve s off.
Your phone comes s on(security flag on),meaning you can't touch lower level things like hboot, radios, and cid numbers.
S off is a difficult process so it will take some time until it's available, and even when it is available its only recommended for advanced users who know what they're doing. It's very easy to brick a device when it's s off

Incorrect, it will restore and run just fine on att. S-off isn't necessary unless doing ruu.

Do you guys think it's safe to root my HTC One X+ right now? Or should I wait a little longer

Root now. It's pretty safe (I mean, nothing is 100% certain) but so long as you follow directions, you'll be fine. Use this toolkit and you should be good.

Just unlock bootloader, flash TWRP, flash SuperSU, and make sure the phone is well charged beforehand!

Im assuming you have ATT.
Upon rooting, make sure to stay away from anything that says INTERNATIONAL. If it does not state, make sure to check the posts in the thread, or post yourself to see if its for ATT or INTERNATIONAL. Most of the development in this subforum is for the INTERNATIONAL HOX+ so be aware and be cautious.
Other then that. Rooting is simple and not dangerous at all. Toolkit works perfect, MAKE SURE TO FLASH ATT TWRP RECOVERY
Ok thanks a lot, I'm probably gonna usr haboon2000's rootkit but I'm not sure which one to DL. The normal HTC one x+ version or the one below that which says HTC one x+ for evita (Rogers,ATT,Telstra)

Okay thank you, I just don't wanna brick my phone lol. I was this careful even when i rooted my Inspire 4G couple years back. You can't let your phone die when you root right?
Nope, root alone does no.harm! But you gotta have unlocked bootloader
What exactly does the unlocked bootloader do? I'm pretty much a noob right now. still learning but right now i'm a hardcore noob lol. I'm gonna go on HTCdev.com to unlock my bootloader now.

If you unlock your bootloader before understanding what it's for or what your doing. You really will be a noob.

I am very new to this, but my Droid DNA, that i just got, is giving me troubles with unlocking the bootloader. I am used to samsungs, and HTC's are confusing to me... I just rooted my uncles HTC One S, and that was pretty simple, but this is still mind boggling to me. If you know how to fix this, please PM me. I have tried the SuperCID app, and it doesnt change my MEID, and HTCDev wont work until I unlock the Verizon Bootloader. I've tried HTCDev, but i keep getting the error code 160, MID Not Allowed. Please help me. thank you for any advice you may have.

If you just bought the phone and it has the newest update, you can't unlock or root. There is no method for the new firmware.
smh... doesn't anybody read anymore? I thought it was normal to gather information before diving in to Unlock bootloaders... Guess not.
Sorry to be so harsh but there are a ton of threads here that would have let you know this is not possible

No. SuperCID broke with the 2.04 update. There is no way to downgrade. There is no current alternative.

Lets see...
Like the difference in s-off and unlocking the bootloader.
What s-off does.
What is hboot?
What is an RUU?
(Not a term but...) In case of an emergency how would I flash back to stock if I needed to? (Gonna miss Odin for that)
Those are the things I can think if off the top of my head.

Unlocking the bootloader = able to flash custom recovery, roms, kernels.
S-Off = lets you flash all of the above, plus radios and downgrade hboot
hboot = underlying firmware of the device, without S-Off its not possible to downgrade this and you generally you want to mess with hboot as little as possible(or not at all) as there's a high potential for hard bricking your device if you do a command wrong.
RUU = basically an ODIN executable oh****button.
Most of the stuff is going to be the same across Android devices, however.
Thanks for the help. HTC seems confusing... Lol

I wonder if setting S-off would help the camera problem i am having with my One. I posted the problem a few minutes ago. My question is what is S-On or S-off mean? I saw when I was rooting my phone and flashing a custom kernel....
Can I ask what the two of you are even talking about ? I don't think you know .
No htc phone requires soff it's optional thing when available .And not always easy to achieve with HTC.You must gain an unlocked bootloader before you can root once you unlock and root you then can soff if it's been achieved for the specific device that one is attempting soff with.
It has nothing to do with needing it for root or needing it at all, soff just gives us the complete total control to flash kernels roms and a ton more of tech stuff.

You can't change soff or s on the way u think .It's not anything to do with what you are thinking.
Soff is very hard to achieve it takes great minds to do so . This is why HTC is greatly difficult to hack over the Samsung devices .
You don't need soff so stop worrying about it .trust me ,cause the HTC one is like the nexus models they work the same soff isn't needed really where as any other HTC soff phone is needed to flash roms in there entirety.
Without soff on most HTC phones you have to flash roms in pieces like boot.img has to be done from a pc before flashing the rom ,whereas the One can still do all that with s On.

I'm not using Sense so no screenshot, but go to settings and at the bottom look for "About Phone" and one of the numbers should be 2.06...
Most likely the updates will automatically give you a popup when found, or you can manually check for updates.

Moonshine will S-Off and unlock your bootloader all in one snap. I recommend factory resetting the phone before attempting to rule out any issues. It will work, I've moonshined 8 different htc devices and all worked 100% without issue.
