[Q] please help, i'm planning to buy hox but three dots menu issue?! - HTC One X

please help me
I just need to know plain and simple if i do this:
1) root my phone.. (i don't know how to if i will get 1.85 in my phone. I would always want to keep it stock version without unlocking bootloader so please anyone provide me files to just run a batch file in debugging mode that will make me get root please?!)
2)then going in /system/build.prop
Add: qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 to the bottom of the file
and Reboot .
this will remove the three dots menu option right?! (as i just need this to be removed only)
but the three main capacitive buttons after all this, will they work all normally as they do, like back button will make app go back, middle home button will work same as home button and last button i guess it opens recent apps? and it will work the same way aswell?!
and as if the three dots menu button will be disabled/gone... so when playing game and i would want to exit it, then by just pressing back or home key will do and close the app or will it still be running in backgroud?! or what should i be doing then?!
please help so i be prepared i promise to thanks many posts who would help
waiting impatiently for replies ...

You can already instal a custom ROM and do that if you want (because there are already ROMs with this new software base) ... but if you dont want to root your device (so you dont loose your warranty) it will be fixed in the next update

The menu button isn't that much of an issue, but fair play on HTC giving us the option to change it

yes u are right i just read this: new solution for the 3Dot menu! we can change it on the fly in the display options, with option for long hold recent apps for menu or vice versa or the 3dot menu, display menu is now called display gestures and buttons
and there would be changes with that, and really should be... so will update when the stock update will come
sir i want to root my phone, but dont want to unlock the bootloader.. So please can u tell me the files or thread if there is a way by which i can root my phone easily by being in debugging mode and running a batch file, which will make phone restart several times and in end i get root?! so i be able to remove bloatwares

nevermind ill keep the phone unrooted then and will remove some apps from it which can just be uninstalled normally if possible.... and as its "quadcore" wow my pc isnt quadcore lol !! so i don't think so i would need that....
and further update will give options to diable three dots stuff, etc
so that's pretty much it...
but just one thing here's a thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709424
why this guy said this ?! " After you are rooted, I strongly suggest you unlock your bootloader immediately!! "
what will happen if i don't ?!

nevermind that i guess the root is for HTC One XL (otherwise known as the AT&T HTC One X)

Keep my fingers crossed for you
And for the rooting ... keep an eye on this thread, we are really close to get S-OFF for the OneX ... after that, you can do with your device whatever you want (just the sky will be a border)

I know roughly what you are talking about. I know command prompt, although I never used fastboot, as I only owned X10 (until I dropped it and USB port snapped ), so never had to/wanted to unlock bootloader this way. But I want to learn, that's why I am reading all this now, and I need to ask about something I am not sure of.
Just go through the unlock bootloader process and then you will know what fastboot is
After that just type my comamnd with my file in the same directory and you will be done.
Regards
If I were you I would wait till I get ICS on the phone then unlock the bootloader and root the phone.
Quick question. It just wonders me. Sony "supports" unlocking bootloader, which is more dangerous than root. Why rooting is not supported then? Is it because we could unistall third party aplications and Sony has some sort of agreements with them and are obligated by law?

No you are getting the idea wrong
Long ago we discussed alot with SonyEricsson and together decided this is the best way of doing it.
The reason is simple:
Rooting alone does not give you access to all partitions etc. pp See X10 Forums for that. Sony is very good in hiding partitions
With a bootloader unlock we get fully workable fastboot. We are able to write all partitions and change what we want. (Root too)
Also Sony(Ericsson) is able to track who unlocks and who not AND is able to provide a check mechanism to forbid unlocking of phones which are not owned by the user (for example provider branded phones in contract, the phone is usually property of the provider).
So this is the reason. Unlocked bootloader gives us nearly full access, so no need to worry I am in this game since X10 times (like you or not ?)and we always got the phones working like we wanted.
Our work for CM9 on XPS has started now too.

See, I was not aware of that "agreement". Now everything seems to make sense. I am android user since I bought X10 back in August 2010. I was more or less following XDA since then as well, but this forum is worldwide community and is almost imposible to keep a track on everything. I would consider myself somewhere between rookie and advanced users. I know how to do certain things (root, how to use ADB, I was changing framwork_res.apk for my own purposes, etc.). My point also is, I am more hardware sort of guy, rather than software. That's why I am glad you guys are here with us.
Will this wipe the phone data or only the system partition ?

Well no. But the first step is that you need to unlock bootloader and THIS WILL wipe your data. To flash the systempartition itself will not wipe userdata.

Yes, I agree. But myself, I will wait for root for phones with locked bootloader as well. I assume I will be happy with phone speed, but when CM9 comes out, then I will consider unlockin bootloader.

So you restored with Titanium. Since Titanium is a Root app and you don't had Root before i think you are trying to restore a backup from another phone.
If you do that you have to assure that you ONLY RESTORE APPS and NOT SETTINGS! Settings from another phone will be most likely incompatible.
So this wil be your problem!

I don't think it will, otherwise somebody would already confirmed that I think. At the moment the only way is to flash appropriate firmware (only with unlocked bootloader).

to whom it concern for call recorder over this rom works like a charm both sides very clear and great loud
just use callrecorder by SKVALEX(green color) from market with choosing recording calls from kernel with 2 way recording patch(root required) option

Help with root!!!

Hi all, I'm a newbie with HTC devices. I've just bought an HOX and I want to root it to move a file to make the battery last longer, and then to disable soft touch lights that always stay ON ( even with screen off ). Which guide can I use to root it without unlocking the bootloader ? If there's not, can I unlock the bootloader in an unofficial way ? I don't want to lose the warranty. Thank u all.
You cannot.

Really ? WTF!!! It's normal that soft keys's lights are always ON ? Even when the screen is OFF ? Lights are OFF only when the phone is switched off...
How can I disable lights without root ? I read some tricks but didn't work for me
No, that's not normal.
I meant you cannot root it without going through htcdev process.
Before you unlock the phone, make sure it's fault free firstly. Get those soft lights fixed.

Dude, you can't root without unlocking the bootloader (-:
Thank u all !
the htc warranty center in my country is very disappointing .. I have heard of many phones brought in for service and back with other more serious defects. So I would avoid to bring it there. I read around on the forum a way to get the temporary root, which disappears after restarting the phone. Could you kindly link me the guide? I would like to do an experiment and see if I can turn off these damn led of soft touch buttons with root.

[Q] Has this phone been Rooted or manipulated with in any way??

Hello
I found a used HTC One X that I wanted to buy , I decided to test it before I buy it, so it's been with me for the past few hours.
What worries me is that when I went to 'About Phone' to check the version, I saw something that worried me.
In Settings > About > Software Information > More, Kernel Version states the following "3.1.10-ga4f2a44 [email protected] # 1 SMP PREEMPT", it's the "root" in the name that worries me, has this phone been messed with or not??
Also, when I take screenshots by holding the Power button and Volume Down button together, my laptop says the .png files are empty, the two 'Software Information' screenshots below were taken by pressing Home button while holding Power button, while the BootLoader pic was taken with my Sensation XE.
Also (again), is there a way of checking the history of Root, S-OFF/S-ON or ROM flashing of a phone??
The reason I'm worried is because the first Android phone I bought was a used one, and the previous user had rooted it and unrooted/de-rooted improperly. So after no matter how many Hard Resets and Soft Resets, I was never able to root it again :crying:
Nope. It has not been messed with, they all say root
If it has been messed with it would say RELOCKED or UNLOCKED in the bootloader
Its locked ! So that means original. Not tampered with ......
The kernel is original.
ScreenShots?

HTC One X G-sensors not working all of a sudden!

Hey guys... My friend bought an HTC One X second hand. It is rooted with what seems to be stock 4.0.3 Sense 4.0. The phone is also S-OFF and everything.. I will post pictures of it.
So here's the deal:
My friend was watching a movie but suddenly he felt as if the screen wasn't rotating... Now (According to AndroSensor App) the magnetic field, orientation, gyroscope, accelerometer etc... In short.. All of the GRAVITY SENSORS and the orientation sensors aren't working.. They are DETECTED by the app but say "Waiting for event"
tried hard resetting and everything. I have put many Custom ROMs in phones before. So i can flash ROMs etc if i have to
I have attached the pictures about everything and need help.. Alot appreciated thanks.

you should update it first, that is a very old version, you should have updates available. as it is s-off you can flash anything you want but I think you will need to update the hboot first, once that is done you have a lot of options available to you

Go to settings and check for an update. What we all recommend is that you send it to HTC, all untampered One Xs should still be in warranty, so send it to them, if it can't be fixed they'll send you a One X or a One X+, or sometimes they could send a HTC One if you're lucky :/

Oh i'll get right on it when i get my hands on the device can i request you to stay put to this thread? Cuz i will report back here
if you flash a custom recovery you can do anything you want, ie flash a rom, sense or no sense, or flash back to stock and because you are s-off you can even change your cid to install an update from a different region.
this can go on and on and people are starting to repeat themselves and you have had all the information you need to move forward. so what you need to do, as you say you cannot fix under warranty, is :- let the phone update via ota, this will update everything including the rom, the version of sense and the hboot. then once it is finished with all ota's available you can install a custom recovery( I recommend philz touch recovery or the latest twrp) and then you can flash all the rom's or mods you like.
and if you find you still have a problem with sensors check @HTC Venom signature for a possible solution

Try to do the hard reset after couple of days. Once you feel your device is warm enough. Chances to get them back gets better with time

working fine uptil now, i dont have restarted or powered off after that. so dont know if they will keep working after restart or again same problem will occur
all the people having same problem, just keep on trying restarts, safe mode, factory reset etc etc most probably they will start working. its just hit and trial

Downgrade from Marshmallow to Lollipop

I recently upgraded to marshmallow and its been a nightmare. Phone lags, its slower than it ever was, battery drains quickly. I loved this phone now its turning into one of the worst.
Can anyone please post a guide to safely downgrade to lollipop?

Did you try formatting the phone and setting it up again? That usually solves issues with major Android releases.

Yes, factory reset. Still no changes. The phone is slower than ever and the battery life is horrible.
I just want to downgrade it back to Lollipop.

Hey, thanks for replying. I'm a total noob at this. I don't know what these terms mean s-off or flashing. I did tried to google them but to no avail.
Can you guide me a little as how do I turn s-off?
My device is the middle eastern version.
I'll follow rest of the guide.
Is it safe though? Any risk of bricking?
same here

htc desire eye returned back to stock but now HOME BUTTON is missing + Unable to install any apps. Plz help
I still have a lagging problem and unusable camera after numerous factory resets, cache clearing and removing disabling apps. Is there a definitive solution out there? I'm willing to downgrade to lollipop if it means my phone is restored to working properly. My phone is not rooted and I'm a complete newbie as to attempting to do that. Any tips/suggestions would be greatly received as I'm at my wits end. Thanks in advance
Dude go to play store find the app called "HTC Speak" uninstall it from. There and see if it fixes. If not then u r probably suffering from mobile data active error fix It Install exposed module Mobile active fix

Thanks for tip. I tried uninstalling "HTC speak" but still getting problem. Where can I install Mobile active fix?
Thanks again.
Install Xposed installer and install the framework. You can find guides about it all over the desire eye forum. Then open the installed app i.e Xposed Installer. Go to downloads and search MobileRadioActiveFix. Download and install it. Then go back to main menu. Go to framework and reboot device from the framework.

Is your phone rooted? have you been able to flash a custom ROM by now?
I'm rooted and I'm using mini's ICE 2.0.0 MM rom
I'm also using Mini's kernel 3.4.0
And didn't get any bug yet apart from nfc not working on this rom

Did you try running any hardware diagnostics? If not try that and see what it says.

for Home button:
go to Setting --> Personalize --> Change navigation buttons --> and tick Home
then rearrange the sequence for the shortcut (say Back-Home-Recent apps or Recent apps-Home-Back)
As for Unable to install apps, try this:
Setting --> Security --> Unknown sources, and tick it
hope this help

My phone is still not rooted as I'm unable to work out how to do it. I try and unlock bootloader but cannot manually enable OEM unlocking in Developer options. I can see Developer options but no OEM unlocking. Do I need to do this?
