Oh yeah baby. Very good news, very good news indeed. Will be trying this out a bit later. Again, Ty for bringing this to us.

Make sure to thank (or at least give a thought to) the people I listed in the OP. They came up with the exploit that was used!

Yay!
Way to go!

Im a happy camper! Does anyone know if Titanium Back up works? All I get is the overview screen.

Edit: I'm an idiot. Disregard. All is well in root land.

If you don't want to restore, simply do the following:

Code:

adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p33 /system
rm /data/local.prop
rm /data/local/tmp
mv /data/local/tmp.bak /data/local/tmp

That will bring back your lock screen and make the phone not sluggish. You'll have to re-try the root batch file. Make sure not to play with the phone or unplug it while rooting.

Edit: or just re-run the batch file. Looks like that worked just fine.

Thanks to everyone involved worked perfectly

The mac script is saved in Win format and needs a couple other tweaks... However running each command individually worked a treat for me on my MBP / AT&T HOX. Unless someone beats me to it I'll tweak the script and PM it to you kennethpenn for your approval.

"You have our gratitude"

What if you already rooting using ...

Okay, perhaps an ignorant question, but what would happen if you use this method, yet you already used the Superboot r2 method by Paul Obrien?

Are there any differences?

Thanks,
Peter

There's no need to use this method if you've already used the superboot one. The superboot.img only works with an unlocked bootloader, which means only Rogers users can utilize it. The method in this thread works on all One XL devices. It doesn't involve swapping the kernel (like the superboot method), so we don't need an unlocked bootloader to use it.

Great job to everyone evolved. Looks like I have some things to do tonight... Hopefully jcasr will release the bl unlock ad well..

Had to stop the ADB.exe process manually but after that, everything went fine. TiBu is working fine for me. Thanks for everything

kravguy · May 9, 2012

Another quick question (and maybe something that should be mentioned in the OP for other folks), does this reset the device? Any backup of settings/apps needs to be done prior?

No it does not.

Edit: heading to bed (5:36 AM) so I'll be up in 8 or so hours for more questions and support.

So glad I checked XDA before I shipped back my One X to AT&T

Thanks to those for the exploit and kenneth for the tool.

On the other thread they were saying that after rooting this method for ATT the device will be laggy. Any thoughts ?

I believe kennethpenn was able to resolve that issue.
