Hey everyone, I've been using my hox+ rooted for some time now, never flashed a ROM and was wondering if I update to the new att software will I lose root?
Yes. Just make sure you have a custom recovery and flash the root installer zip. Or if you have TWRP, after a the flash, it will ask to install root.
Hey thanks for the response, I'm running twrp 2.4 the thing is I don't know whether to to let the phone update through its regular way of updating or do I flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2235248, the problem with flashing this is I don't
Know how to flash boot IMG. Sorry I'm a noob any help would be greatly appreciated.
Use this command in fastboot.
fastboot flash boot /location/of/boot.img
If your bootloader is unlock and your phone has a custom Recovery, the official AT&T update won't install on your phone. If you want the update, or you wait for a custom ROM with the update to be available, or you relock bootloader, and flash the latest RUU to recover the original state of your phone. Then you can still unlock with the same token and install a custom recovery to root your device.
Thanks much fellas, you've been a great help!
Hello, I am the owner Desire X, unfortunately after unlocking bootloader and install the official firmware is not updated, the phone downloads the update but the installation is necessary to restart (after restarting the phone boot into recovery menu). I tried to re-lock the bootloader but after restarting the phone does not load firmware (ends on HTC logo). Please advice how to install the official update without modifying the update-script.

Have you installed any custom recovery or custom rom....if yes you must have full stock rom to update...
Today had unlocked bootloader, made everything and ended up in V20F with official unlocked bootloader, but, for noob's reazons I can't flash cwm. flashed V20D for root and install recovery for locked bootloader, and there, flashed cwm.zip (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44300426&postcount=358) installed succefully, reboot and then it gave me security error. Got into S/W And realized that it wasn't unlocked.
After some researching, found that the unic way to save my phone was by official LgMobile Support, it didn't recoignaized my phone.
Dindn't gave up and tried crazy things, flashed cwm in unofficial fastboot, then p760 JB uboot and x-boot(Lelus fastboot http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292828), then I reboot into CWM touch without problem! Thought about getting
unlocked bootloader and flashed CM10.1 Unofficial, and it flashed , reboot and had LG bootscreen inverted, but everything else okay, so I don't know
if this can help to anybody, maybe can be a new method to unlock without making crazy things.
By the way, as you can notice English is not my native languaje, so sorry if I made mistakes.
you forgot this one

this will fix the inverted lg logo at boot, flash in cwm
all you needed was to flash the u-boot.img for 20f in fastboot, you would have had no security error.
I've made a terrible mistake.
Unlocked the bootloader successfully then tried flashing superuser, then wiped all, then tried installing CM11
Apparently I never got root successfully and now the device has no ROM at all.
It won't write CM11 and I can't throw a stock rooter tmobile rom in the TWRP directory to try that.
"Error executing binary in zip"
did I just wreck the device?

You might try to run the RUU 5.14.531.11 of course it will wipe all of your data if you didn't save it before your issue. If you are S-ON, you will need to lock your bootloader after you successfully run the RUU you can unlock it again using your same unlock code.

You might try this: HTC Unbricking Project
