[Q] Rooting my HTC One X - Issue Encountered - HTC One X

Hey XDA,
This is my first ever post here, so sorry if I mess something up, or this is the wrong section etc. If a mod could direct me to the right one, that'd be great
Anyway, I am trying to root my HTC One C, and I have encountered my first issue.
I have outlined the issue in the video here:
youtube/watch?v=lEXGO2pg_08
In short:
I am following this tutorial: no links..
Step 40 implies your phone would auto-reboot, mine didn't. So I did it manually.
Upon restarting, the tutorial says to connect the phone as a hard-disk. Mine used to do this fine, until I installed the software update this morning and I no longer have that feature, and now I cannot find the HTC file manager.
Any advice?

Can't see the video... From mobile... Here are the steps you need to take :
1. Unlock bootloader from htcdev.com (all steps are given in there)
2. Flash a custom recovery like cwm/twrp
3. Flash the Supersu.zip and reboot!
Done!
-Sent from my IceCold One X!

your video seems to be blocked for me as its private...
anyways 40 steps seems to be very long
simply do these
1.Go to htcdev.com,create account,select unlock bootloader and it will guide you through the unlock.(unlocking will wipe all your data)
2.after unlocking bootloader,simply download these two files
http://download.chainfire.eu/331/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.32.zip
http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
and flash it in recovery.by using " fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img "
3.after that reboot into bootloader again select recovery and select install from sdcard and from there select the UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.32.zip and install it.
4.after that reboot and done...your rooted

+1. Just gave you your 100th thanks
It would also be nice if the OP had mentioned that this is for Marvel, not MarvelC. There will be some frustrated noobs trying to figure out why this doesn't work. Hopefully they don't mess up and flash a Marvel recovery on their MarvelC phone.

More on the You-Tube rooting video....
Here's the process written down from the video together with a bit more info for newbies and a couple of fixes to make clear what is being done. After months of trying to root with many methods, this one finally worked and it's logical.

How to Root Android for the HTC Wildfire S
Date: 2012-0620
This process was originally published on YouTube at:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqCk2NiHTTg&feature=player_embedded#!
and this You Tube link is also posted on XDA Developers at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1616326
Before rooting the phone, the boot loader must be unlocked and this is done using the HTCDEV website at: htcdev.com. Select Unlock Bootloader and follow the steps provided on the HTC site.
Now on to root the unlocked phone...
The process is basically in 3 steps:
1. Preparing the computer setup.
2. Flashing a ClockworkMod recovery image on the phone.
3. Creating a SD Card with the rooting files (as a zip package) and booting into the recovery partition.
At this time, a Windows PC is needed because you need the phone to register on HTC Sync which is currently Windows only.
1. Preparations:
a. Make sure the HTC Sync is working and that you can connect the phone so that HTC Sync registers its presence. That way, you know that the Windows terminal can communicate with the phone.
b. Download the following file:
fastboot.zip from: http://www.mediafire.com/?50baad8rykng2j0
Credit for this file is given on the YouTube site.
c) Unzip fastboot.zip to create a new folder called "Recovery" which has the following 4 files:
i. AdbWinApi.dll (extension)
ii. fastboot (executable)
iii. install_recovery (batch file) and
iv. recovery (image file)
2. Flashing the recovery file:
a) Power the phone up into the boot loader screen by pressing Volume Down and Power on buttons together. (If you are new to this, you have to power down the phone, then remove and replace the battery before rebooting).
b) Open a windows terminal, navigate to the "Recovery" folder and execute the following command:
<fastboot flash recovery recovery.img>
You should see the terminal report: "writing recovery……OKAY". The process will install the recovery.img file into the recovery partition, so make sure the name is correct.
Reboot the phone.
3. Rooting the phone:
For this section, you need the root.zip file which can be downloaded from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=672519&d=1312...
Add this file to a micro-SD card. Power down the phone and add the SD card.
Boot the phone into boot loader mode using the volume down and power buttons.
Select recovery so that you boot the phone into CWM recovery. Then select "install zip from SD Card"
From the presented options, "Choose zip from SD Card"
Press the power button, then choose zip to apply…
Locate "root.zip" and confirm install with "Yes - install root.zip"
When the file has been read, reboot and check the phone to find the "SuperUser" app installed.
A final check is to download an app that needs superuser access to operate correctly (e.g. "Got Root?").
You're done )
I know a lot of people they root her/his WFS with help from this video.
On a dutch Android Forum the most people that ask how to root, i always tell look as this video and you're done....
Great that the video now on XDA :good:

Regarding to rooting

hi All,
i new user of android os i was used and make lot of roms of Windows mobile. i m new with android i broth htc wildfire to online and they are send i think rooted phone becoz my hboot loader showing following
BUZZ PUT SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.01.1002
MICROP-0622
RADIO-3.35.20.10
but when i install root checker software on mobile it find result this phone has not rooted properly.if it 's not then how to root this hboot version?
so i need help to flashing my phone with other custom rom.
First if all,wrong section.........use the Q and A section for questions
Second....your phone is just S-OFF(Security OFF),you will need to root your phone and install a custom recovery before you can flash roms
Firstly Welcome to our small(i feel its gettin' smaller everyday,nice to see new member :laugh: )community,but pay attention to this:
Wildfire Android Development-Threads for ROMs,MODs,PORTs,something that you made,something that you are developing and need some help,and some other things like guides for rooting etc.
Wildfire Q&A-Pretty self-explanatory,just questions and answers.
Your thread is for the Q&A section obviously,but on the question:
Your phone is S=OFF'ed ,which means unlocked bootloader. Now you should just install custom recovery (if it isnt installed yet, you should check it by getting into the bootloader and selectig recovery,use vol up&down + power button to select.)
For more information i suggest you to read the whole index thread:here.Everything is explained very well , just read carefully

sorry for wrong post but if i rooting my device so it will going to brick or dead ?
the members of this community was not given proper step by step instructions. android rooting i think lite hard. how many percentage to brick the device ? or is it safe?
Great, my phone is now S-OFF, meaning with a completely unlocked bootloader.
1] so i need to root it?
now i have to do this method first ?
◄●Instructions●►
Make sure you downloaded Unrevoked3 for your OS.
If you're on Windows, make sure you "uninstall HTC Sync or any other program that might talk to the phone over USB (doubletwist, etc). They will cause problems" (Unrevoked.com).
Plug your phone into your computer with USB.
Drag down from the notification bar on your phone and select "Charge Only" and "Remember this"
Make sure your phone has USB Debugging turned on by going to Menu>>Settings>>Applications>>Development and checking USB debugging.
Run the Reflash application that you downloaded.
Unrevoked will run its processes. Follow the few instructions it gives and thats it!
2] Then second is this?
Via PC49IMG.zip Process (Needs S-OFF) - Download anyone of the PC49IMG ZIP file of the recovery you wish to install, place on your SDcard, and reboot into HBoot Mode (Power Off, then Vol Down + Power Simultaneously). It will detect the file, and ask to install. Simply select Yes. If you wish to install another version which isn't present below, simply get the IMG file of the recovery version you wish to install,and replace in an existing ZIP. (Without Unzipping)
or 2] will first and 1] will second?
You need not use Unrevoked. Since your device is already S-OFF, you will just have to install a custom Recovery. There are 4 methods outlined in my guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1029318
How to Install a new Clockworkmod Recovery Image?
There are 4 basic ways:
1) Via Terminal Emulator (Needs S-OFF) - Guide Here. If you get an error "flash_image: Not Found", follow Steps 1-5 from Here, then, back to the original (first) link. Pushing of flash_image is a 1 time process. You need not repeat it everytime.
2) Via Fastboot (Needs AlphaRev / Revolutionary S-OFF or HTC DEV Unlocked Bootloader) - Guide Here. Refer the part called "To install Clockworkmod after Revolutionary"
3) Via PC49IMG.zip Process (Needs S-OFF) - Download anyone of the PC49IMG ZIP file of the recovery you wish to install, place on your SDcard, and reboot into HBoot Mode (Power Off, then Vol Down + Power Simultaneously). It will detect the file, and ask to install. Simply select Yes. If you wish to install another version which isn't present below, simply get the IMG file of the recovery version you wish to install,and replace in an existing ZIP. (Without Unzipping)
4) Via Unrevoked (No Pre-Requisites. Works on S-ON / S-OFF devices) - Guide Here

Personally, I go with the Fastboot technique since I feel its the easiest of them all. But you can also use the PC49IMG method if you don't have ready access to a PC.
Once CWM is installed, follow this guide to install Custom ROMS (Part 3 onwards)

I am donating USD 100$ to the person who will write a STEP by STEP guide

Hi Guys
I am currently on Mike's ARHD 18.2 Rom and I am thinking of reverting back to completely stock Jelly Bean Rom .
So I am donating a USD 100$ to the person who will write a STEP by STEP guide with links to the correct download points etc. But my stock Rom should be ROOTED and all necessary apps like Busybox , SuperSU, etc should be flashed too.
Also this guide should mention how to achieve those steps , for example
Insetad of saying , FIND OUT YOU PHONE'S CID , it should explain me how to find out the CID such as : Goto Bootloader Mode by pressing Volume Down and Power button > Fastboot USB > Then on your PC at ADB screen type - fastboot oem readcid etc. etc.
Currently I am on Mike ARHD Rom 18.2 , my HBOOT is 1.39
Regarding on how to choose which person will get the 100$ , I think the people who want to make this guide should post a message here and I will choose who and tell him to proceed with the Guide .
I am an XDA member since 2006 and my word is trustable . If you look at Mike's Donation list , I am the highest single donator as well.
I want to make myself clear once more , think of me as a person who does knows just a little on HTC and Rooting and Flashing and ADB and etc. So do not think of me as a professional like you guys.
I prefer somebody who already uses Mike's ARHD rom for One X .....
Thanks Guys
Procedure is very simple: relock your bootloader and flash JB ruu
Re: ROOTing my phone, want to make sure a few things
Sent you PM.
I said , the stock rom then should be rooted as well ......
Yes, yes. No problem at all.
I will compile you a totally noob proof step-by-step guide, just read my PM.

Sorry I didn't know that ...
Anyway TToivanen made a great guide and now in a few minutes I will follow it step by step .
I already preordered my HTC One , and while waiting for it I will play around with my One X and I hope to get rid of the LOW VOLUME LEVEL bug I am faced with by going completely stock .
I realised on some calls the volume level seems OK, but in some calls the volume is so low I can not hear the opposing person if I am in my car or outside ( where there are other noises around)
Since 1 friend has a completely stock HOX , I hope to reach his Volume Levels when I turn stock , another friend has the ARHD 9.8 and his Volume level is much higher than mine too.
I think the Step by Step guide that is made by TToivanen is just perfect, this is how a guide should be done , some peoble write guides too but I barely see one this clear and easy to understand .
I agree, it's perfect. But not everyone is getting 100$ for writing those guides

Hi there, let's go step by step without "shortcuts" that are typically working on PC/WIn.
1. Unlock bootloader of your phone at HTCdev[dot]com [replace 'dot' with . - sorry for confusion I haven't earned reputation to post external links yet]. All necessary tools (fastboot) will be provided to download during process as well as necessary instructions. You need Windows/Linux or OS X computer to complete this step.
2. Download custom recovery .img file and save it to same directory you have fastboot files (e.g. from step 1) on you computer
3. Start phone in fastboot mode (mind fast boot option in Power settings must be unchecked if you using VolDown [-] start option (not necessary if you use adb reboot bootloader). Battery must be charged over 10% (I suggest 30% to stay secure); connect to computer (phone shall display Fastboot USB)
4. Navigate command/terminal window on your computer to location of recovery image file from step 2 (fastboot files must be there or have a correct path specified).
5. On computer terminal window run command: fastboot flash recovery filename_of_recovery.img . Red section must be exact custom recovery file name.
6. You'll get some communication in terminal. If completed OK will be among them, if failure, there will be FAIL with description of reason (e.g. low_power). If only "waitng for device" dislays, check connection with phone.
7. Navigate phone to HBOOT, then select recovery. If recovery don't start, check step 1 and restart from step 3. If only icon with red ! appears, it means you have stock recovery installed. Please verify from step 1.
8. Once custom recovery is installed and working, use it to flash SuperSU or any other superuser app (must be flashable .zip to be applied). Install just 1 root application, to avoid problems. At this point, you may consider flashing busybox also if you plan extensive file modification, but it's not necessary for root. For any sake, clear cache befor restart.
9. Restart the phone - you shall view SuperSU application or any other superuses app you've flashed i step 8.
Hope now works.

6. You'll get some communication in terminal. If completed OK will be among them, if failure, there will be FAIL with description of reason (e.g. low_power). If only "waitng for device" dislays, check connection with phone.
7. Navigate phone to HBOOT, then select recovery. If recovery don't start, check step 1 and restart from step 3. If only icon with red ! appears, it means you have stock recovery installed. Please verify from step 1.
8. Once custom recovery is installed and working, use it to flash SuperSU or any other superuser app (must be flashable .zip to be applied). Install just 1 root application, to avoid problems. At this point, you may consider flashing busybox also if you plan extensive file modification, but it's not necessary for root. For any sake, clear cache befor restart.
9. Restart the phone - you shall view SuperSU application or any other superuses app you've flashed i step 8.
Hope now works.

Thanks for your answer, I have to say I properly unlocked the phone so I do not think there is a way I messed up with this step as when I start bootloader it clearly shows on the top of the screen ''UNLOCKED".
When I flashed recovery on my phone I had no errors prompted or any message of failure. The process went well until a success notification.
Now when I start my phone into bootloader I repeat, I clearly see that recovery has been installed but when I attempt to start it then I'll be almost instantly brought back to the bootloader screen... now I started to wonder if... if an update of android could cause this kind of issue? The point is my phone is using android 4.4.4 and not the factory version 4.4.2. I remember having updated my android version which was perhaps a mistake as this phone is not very old and I was planning to root it in the next days... Now I'm not expert just try to figure it out.
I tried different system to auto root via different apps, some using the PC some using directly the phone, I never get any success...

Ok, please try twrp from Original Android Development tread (it works for me, mind, I'd question it's stability) or Philz recovery (sorry, I found only Chinese, but it's for verivication only: h...ps://drive.google.com/file/d/0BygOvRquk4z8S05kRC1XMXdSbXM/view?usp=sharing - please adjust tt in address - rookie rules).
I'd suggest test running from Fastboot: fastboot boot custom_recovery.img - replace with actual file name from directory you're running terminal.
This shall verify if it's problem with recovery file or any remaining protection...

Does having S-ON bother? I was also wondering about that but all tutorials I found no one mentions anything about the S-ON or S-OFF thing.
But I do have a S-ON under UNLOCKED
what is stock recovery.img name
i dont know what is the real stock recovery.img name.
htc desire 820q dualsim
I can't root my htc desire 820q by this method, is any alternative way?
I just root my phone with same procedure but my phone still show s-on..... How can i s-off my phone.....

Blackview BV9000 Pro-F ROOT SUCCESS [TWRP + Magisk v16 + Stock Rom]

EDIT: included rough procedures for OEM unlocking, and updated link to recovery-verified.img (Sorry for uploading the wrong file ><)
Hi all bv9000 pro Users!
Recently I went on a journey to root this awesome rugged phone with one purspose: to remove that F*@(#&$ god awful loud annoying sound triggered by the OS when you use a camera app to take a picture + the boot startup sound (A bug blackview hasn't gotten around to fixing).
I successfully managed to port TWRP 3.1.1 from the Blackview bv8000 Pro and run it on the Blackview bv9000 Pro-f!
I've then managed to flash in Magisk to gain root access.
DISCLAIMER: I do not take responsibility for any bricked phones caused by the process, do so at your own risk (yadayadayada).
NOTE 1: Although I've got it running on the bv9000 Pro-F, this image should also work for the non-fullHD version, if someone can test this I'd be happy.
The link to the stock ROM (with the modified recovery img) can be found in the post below.
NOTE 2: No need to download anything other than what I've listed, Magisk is included in my custom recovery to circumvent the need to load the devices encrypted storage (or any other external storage) nothing stops you from mounting external usb storage.
What you'll need:
- USB Mouse (As there is no touchscreen input support, your device should have come with a usb-c otg cable so there's no problem here!)
- MediaTek SP Flash tools (I'd recommend the latest version) https://spflashtool.com/
- unlocked bootloader (You should be able to do this via the developer settings -> unlock OEM Bootloader)
EDIT: To unlock the boot loader, do the following:
1) Go to settings -> unlock OEM Bootloader (tick)
2) plug your device in (assuming you have ADB installed), use adb to access fastboot via. command prompt:
"adb reboot bootloader"
Then once the device is rebooted into fastboot mode
"fastboot oem unlock"
KEEP IN MIND THIS WILL REMOVE ANY FILES, so back them up
- I've done this with windows, but you should be able to repeat with linux no problems!
- A little patience
Pre-preparation:
First install any updates and back up your data (it's just easiest to use the google cloud backup as restoring becomes easy as pie, updating also fixes the setup wizard crashing on first setup). This is necessary because OTA updates cannot be performed with TWRP recovery, and flashing TWRP before doing OTA updates will flick the device into a recovery boot loop.
Install the SP Flash tools, and the MediaTek VCOM Drivers
(I won't link the specifics here, a quick google search should be able to help you, just note you might need to disable driver signature enforcement)
Two options for flashing:
1)
My Full Stock ROM already pre-prepared for flashing:
Patched ROM
No need for extra prep here! you should just be able to load the scatter
2)
My custom patched TWRP stock rom: recovery-verified.img
Blackiew's stock rom: stock rom
- Download the stock rom, backup the recovery-verified.img in the R06 folder, and then replace it with my custom patched TWRP stock rom (file name should be the same).
- Run "CheckSum_Gen.exe" once you replaced the file, it will generate the necessary checksum to allow SP flash tools to successfully flash recovery.
Once you've done with the pre-prep, switch off your device, take a deep breath and you're ready to go!
Steps!
1) Load up SP Flash Tools, select the android scatter file you've downloaded in the R06 folder
2) Select Download Only (I MEAN IT, FORMATTING WILL REMOVE YOUR IMEI AND RENDER THE PHONE USELESS)
3) Deselect everything but recovery (You only want to flash this)
4) Hit download
https://pasteboard.co/HkufwZZ.png
5) Hold volume up + power and plug in your phone, keep the volume up button held
6) very quickly the flash should be complete, and you should be greeted with a big ol' green tick to verify
https://pasteboard.co/HkuiTBB.png
7) Once you're done, remove your USB cable, plug in the OTG then we proceed to flash magisk
8) Hold power + volume up until you reach the bootloader, then use the menu to select recovery
9) You *should* be greeted with the TWRP recovery screen (Which is great success! )
DON'T PANIC IF YOU CANNOT USE THE TOUCH SCREEN, the kernel I've patched is missing this, seems the driver is different between touch screens, just plug in your OTG mouse to continue from here!
10) Use your mouse to first hit cancel, we don't need to decrypt the user data storage.
11) But oh no! it's all in Russian (no problem, Next step sorts that)
12) Use your mouse to navigate the menus as shown here to change to English! (or your preferred language) Change Language
13) Click install, then navigate up folder levels until you are in the root directory
14) scroll down and click on Magisk.zip, install it, allow it to install any apps as system apps (because this will then install to the system image, not the userdata)
15) reboot the phone (if it hasn't rebooted already)
16) You should be able to boot into your usual phones OS, if you don't see Magisk listed in your phone apps, just download it from here:
Magisk Manager
17) Congratulations! You should have complete root access :laugh::laugh::laugh:
Feel free to express your thanks, or list any problems you have, but keep in mind my studies take all my life, so I may not be able to help with all the problems you have
Congrats! Would it work on the BV9000 HD version?
Hi!
From what I've seen they both run the helio p25 chip
(Just a difference in RAM size) so it should.
You're more than welcome to try.
Just keep a backup of the original ROMs recovery. If something goes wrong during the boot to recovery you can easily re flash
hi i tried both optinos but they didn't work for me
I tried the first and the second options and it was showed me same error:
ERROR: STATUS INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER(0XC0010007)
I tried download only, format all and download, if i install original ROM its installing without problems!
In settings-> developer options -> OEM unlocking is enabled
can someone give me tips if I'm doing something wrong. thanks
My phone is Blackview BV9000PRO-F
Hello,
i have the blackview 9000 pro Hd (not full hd)
i first tried your prepared patched rom = not working (get erorrers in step 6)
then i chose step 2 and i was thinking to use the stock rom from the NOT full hd rom
now i get a green screen from the flashing: but after rebooting in recovery nothing happens, just normal reboot then
perhaps this is not so clair for me:
- Download the stock rom, backup the recovery-verified.img in the R06 folder, and then replace it with my custom patched TWRP stock rom (file name should be the same).
- Run "CheckSum_Gen.exe" once you replaced the file, it will generate the necessary checksum to allow SP flash tools to successfully flash recovery.
the file name you posted here " My custom patched TWRP stock rom: recovery-verified.img" is ramdisk-recovery.img
i replaced the ramdisk-recovery.img... it is not clair need to replace recovery-verified.img to?

Hi, you need to unlock the OEM bootloader, if this is still locked it will prevent the flashing of custom ROMS.
I might've missed this step, will update post as necessary.

I already did this step:
Enable developer options-> OEM unlocking is enabled
Is that enough for this MTK phone to be unlocked the bootloader ?
And tried the both options but the results are same.
I have been unlocking bootloaders on many phones but first time MTK phones. If i try with adb commands it recognize when is in the android with command adb devices and show my device but if I try reboot bootloader and check in device manager in windows its show its connected and drives are correct but if i try to show the devices, it doesn't show any device connected
Hi,
You need to install fastboot drivers once it's in bootloader mode,
then use fastboot, not adb.
"fastboot oem unlock"
Then follow instructions.
simply doing settings -> oem unlock won't unlock the bootloader, it allows you to do so later via. fastboot
Check the original post, I've added the extra instructions sorry about the confusion!
Thanks a lot. I finally succeeded to unlock the bootloader and root my phone and install the magisk.. I did without use your rom just I unlocked the bootloader and install your twrp file and after in the recovery mode i format the data and istall magic and i still have the last updated android.
I hope this it ill help to other people. Cheers

Congratulations .... I need a tip,.
And, brother, thank you very much. Worked perfectly.
But first I would like to get you a tip ..
One of the main reasons I have done all this complicated process was to be able to disable the crap of the loud music that plays when the device is started.
I want complete silence at startup.
How do I disable this ****?

Hi guys, lemme apologize for disappearing, life and whatnot!
For those stuck in a TWRP boot loop, simply restoring the original recovery then restarting the phone will be enough to fix the problem.
(Actually you really don't need TWRP after the phone is rooted, maybe I should update the guide?)
Many Thanks
First off, thank you for your hard work. Loved the "**** it we have an OTG cable let's use it" haha. It works fine for me.
Second, do you happen to know if someone has ported Oreo on our bv9000 ? Or do you know of any ETA ?
Thanks again,
Cheers
Anyone tried on the BV9000 Pro? Don't think mine is 'F' OR 'Fhd'.... I must have first model brought out...
Ugh.. Windows and Drivers?!?!
I keep getting Driver not Recognized in Windows 7 Pro X86.
I installed the latest vcom/usb drivers, in legacy also. No Go.
I installed from several other sources the drivers, including the Automatic Mediatek driver install. No Go.
So if anyone has a tip for me, please let me know because once more Windows is proving itself ridiculous. I can't even get to the storage of my phone. Did something change with a Windows Update that it's not allowed anymore?
I put my BV9000 Pro in OEM Unlock and USB Debugging. I backupped everything. My phone is ready for it. It's as ready as Amy having coitus with Sheldon for the first time.
