AT&T HTC One X Install Custom ROM

These are the instructions and helpful links to unlock AT&T HTC One X Bootloader, install Custom Recovery and Install Custom Rom.

Here are the list of things you need to prepare or download.

  1. First you need to get Root access
  1. To unlock Bootloader
    • AT&T does not allow to unlock bootloader so if you tried instructions from HTCDev.com, it will not work. You need to follow this instructions.Your phone will be wiped out and you will loose root access but do not reboot your phone, stay in fastboot or bootloader mode.
  2. Install Recovery (Follow the same instructions, just change the name of the recovery file.)
    • I tried to flash ClockworkMOD and it didn't work so I used Team Blackout recovery. It is as good as ClockworkMOD.
  3. Reboot into Recovery from Fastboot
  4. Backup Current ROM
  5. Wipe Data / Reset
  6. Install Custom ROM and Google Apps
  7. Reboot

  1. Thanks for the 8 Step program! IF you are having trouble with the 1.85 Script try doing it manually (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27376557)

    1. you can do this on Mac if you have android SDK and one x driver working on it. Try to get custom recovery first and backup your existing rom before doing anything.
