Root [AT&T] Root help please?

[InflatedTitan]

Definitely a noob when it comes to rooting, always jailbroke every device I had. I've tried to follow an article on androidauthority, it said it was rooting, and it rebooted my phone a few times only to find it still didn't have root acces. Can anyone point me in the right direction on the most recent updated root method for my AT&T One X? It's on version 1.85. Thanks to anyone in advance.

Hey Titan, it looks as though you'd need to unlock your bootloader following this: [UNLOCK] AT&T Bootloader Unlock Through HTC-Dev - xda-developers

Then root your phone using this: [ROOT] One Click HTC One X (AT&T/Rogers/Others) (Win/Mac/Linux) - xda-developers

I have the International variant so I'm not familiar with the AT&T process, but if you get stuck, ask and I'll try to help if I can.

WOW.... Went to unlocking link... Read it.. did a little research on adb and sdk... And sadly I'm just not advanced enough to even try something like that. I mean that's freaking ridiculous.. I would literally need someone sitting right next to me trying to explain to me like I'm a 4 year old haha.... Although it makes me extremely upset, I guess I have no choice but to pass on unlocking my One X's true potential....


Also, something don't quite make sense to me... In order to root my phone, I need to unlock bootloader... But in order to unlock bootloader, one of the first thing it says is I need to have root.... This process is complicated
