Hello,
I have a question ... can we root Htc One X+ from FASTBOOT , that is installing the rooting .zip file from the FASTBOOT rather than flashing the zip from CWR or TWRP...
AFAIK no. without S-off we don't have permission to flash unsigned .zips from fastboot.
Although you could build your own pre-rooted kernel and flash that from fastboot....

Well I do have S-OFF on my device (dev phone) .. so in that case is it possible to just flash the zip.. and also by doing this can I permanently harm my device.

Did you follow globatron's guide for Honeycomb and s-off?
If so, why didn't you just flash the ROM zip file in recovery?
Edit: Okay, I see, did you flash the ROM zip first, then fastboot flash the boot image?

If you get into problems with ROMs/flashing, it is essential to include your hboot version in the information you give. Without this nobody can tell you how to proceed.
I plan on flashing CWM recovery for my AT&T One X+. I know that if i use Hasoon's toolkit (which i plan on doing) you have to place in Data then recoveries. Do i need to do anything use before i flash CWM over TWRP (My current recovery)?
No. U can just flash over the current recovery anytime anywhere.

I have my bootloader unlocked how did you flash twrp I have a Mac
Got my Desire X yesterday and unable to install the software update pushed on phone from HTC (its a brand new phone non-rooted) because stock recovery is damaged (In my country we do not have phone warranty, so unable to send it to HTC for repair). I have stock recovery.img downloaded from another thread. Kindly guide me how to flash this file(recovery.img) to my phone........
Thanks.
Find fastboot binaries.
Boot phone in fastboot mode.
Then use,
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Done

P.S, your boot loader must be unlocked for above.

make sure that you have installed htc sync manager in your pc,
download adb package
then fastboot flash boot boot.img
usually, boot.img you need is in the zip of the custom rom
Just as the title says,I've got an HTC One & I've already unlocked the bootloader but had to give the computer I was using up before I could install recovery or SU. SO, is there any possible way to get a recovery onto my One without a computer? Then I can just flash a rooted ROM. I am also still S-ON. Thank you XDA Community!

I'm not super familiar with the HTC one but I believe you need to use fastboot to install a recovery, unlocking the bootloader allows you to flash to this partition. You could try to use a terminal emulator if your stock ROM supports the flash image binary but I'm doubtful it will.
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
This would be if you name the recovery image recovery.img and have it on the root of your sdcard, but can't recall if you phone has an external SD or not so check the path
Or you could try dd commands, this is more risky and I wouldn't recommend it
Really I would suggest waiting until you got to a PC that has fastboot installed on it, then in just a few minuets you could flash a recovery and ROM and be on your way
