Ive been asked numerous times for this root script, so i will just leave this......... http://db.tt/n0zNzBQL here.

Op, if this is not allowed, or u disapprove of this, please feel free to let me know.

If u guys use this give thanks to the op, and follow all directions from the op.

RATTLED FROM MY GLOBALIZED HTC DROID DNA WITH TAPATALK 2

Does this root script unlock the bootloader as well?

    EXPLOIT NO LONGER WORKING DUE TO OTA UPDATE. BE WARNED.

    Thanks to beaups for his exploit!

    Download the zip file below, unzip it somewhere, run root.bat with your phone plugged in and usb debugging enabled. Currently this is for windows only.

    Includes a fully working su binary and Superuser.apk, make sure to update the su binary the first time you run SuperSu!

    Follow the instructions on the screen, they are very simple, only one thing to do!

    HELP SECTION:

    After you are rooted, I strongly suggest you unlock your bootloader immediately!!
    http://briefmobile.com/how-to-unlock-att-one-x-bootloader

    Make sure HTC sync is NOT RUNNING (down in system tray)
    Make sure phone is set to "charge only" and usb debugging is enabled!
    Make sure Wifi is enabled and connected! (seems to help, but not required)

    If you are stuck at "waiting for device to reboot" for a long time or you get "/data/local.prop was not created, exit the script, try again." followed by lots of junk, reboot your phone and push your clock forward two days, reboot, and try again.

    If the update fails to check for updates, reboot your phone and push your clock forward two days, reboot, and try again.

    Hey all, just wanted everyone to know that I was still able to root with this process today 6-20-2012. It did take four attempts before it worked though. The first three times I did everything the same; the fourth and final try I changed from "Disk Mode" to "Charging Only" Not sure if that made the difference or not, but worked in the end.

    Thanks to all that created this.
    I need root :)
    No to unlock bootloader <--- Oh boy here we go again. :)

    That's why it mentions being set to "charge only" in the OP ;)
    Glad you got it working.

    Go to Settings, ATT Software update, check for updates.

    Press any key to continue . . .

    Any suggestions?

    check out the bolded part

    kick the date forward two days and reboot your phone, run the script again

    you might have to do that a couple times...

    I thought the software version being 1.85 means i can root it?

    the exploit requires you to initiate a software update, since there's an OTA out there, it no longer works.

    How do I get TWRP on my phone? Do I push it with adb?

    Download goomanager from the play store. Run it. Access the app settings (not the settings option on the main list, but the 3 dots), and pick install openrecoveryscript. This will install the latest official version of twrp.
