So I rooted/unlocked bootloader etc..., but dragged my feet on installing custom ROM's. So i see that Rogers One X is getting an official Jelly Bean update. I am on AT&T so I would assume that the AT&T update is coming soon. Do I need to unroot so I don't risk bricking my phone or will the OTA update work anyway?

yeah man, you need to unroot, get back stock recovery and relock bootloader then use the correct RUU,.
it sounds like alot to do but it really is just a few fastboot commants and letting the RUU run its course, there is many guides but i think you are in the wrong forum, do you have the international one X or the dual core version?
if you have the dual core version then the correct guide for you will be here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1538
Can you point me to a guide for this for the international HOX? I'm running into an issue with the last part, it fails when trying to update. Thanks!
Thanks for that info and yep in the wrong forum. Didn't realize the forums were specific to carrier. :0
thanks again,

hello,is it possible to permroot 2.3.3 desire z (official update) and then flash custom ROM(im thinking about cynanogen) on it?
It's hard as hell, but I'm going to restrain my impulsivites and give you the short answer.
no.
No not yet, not until the developers find away past the security.

so the new rom doesn't have the unlocked bootloader they should be working on at HTC, and it's only locked tighter?
I doubt they are worried about implementing that for the Desire Z.
what about any downgrading possibility?

Nope, downgrade won't work either (for now). Its the same with the G2 Gingerbread ROM. Someone needs to crack it and figure out how to downgrade or root.
If you accepted the OTA, and want root, you screwed up.

I have my phone rooted with this only. I used Odin and this file. CF-Auto-Root-d2spr-d2spr-sphl710.tar.md5
I do have super user and that's it. I was wondering with this new update rolling out from Sprint soon for 4.3. Will I need to un root or can I just update it and lose root.
If I have to un root can someone tell me the easiest. I'm new to this.
I have the Sprint SPH-L710
What I've read is that you have to be on stock ROM doesn't matter if it's rooted/non-rooted. But my suggestion is to wait because there is no coming back to an older version once you upgraded to 4.3. (I maybe wrong on the rooted part ) But it doesn't hurt to double check the threads

I would recommend checking out "High on Android" video's at youtube, that guy got me started and I haven't looked back, he makes it easy for noobs like us.
Honestly I would go and read up on the general section. There is a ton of info over there. This has been discussed beyond end. The answer is yes you can be rooted but you have to be 100 percent stock! Meaning you have to have stock recovery and stock rom. Once you update to 4.3 OTA you will be stuck on stock for awhile! You will not be able to flash roms or kernels. PLEASE BEWARE! Cnexus has an entire thread explaining knox!

I would do what is recommended and wait..it's being worked on and we will be set free of the Knox Ness monster soon enough.

Vandietuts VDT-V26 Super Lite Lollipop has root.
Thanks for the warning, Rev, but we really have to wait and see. If the lollipop update makes the phone more locked than an iPhone, LG has shot themselves in the foot since they don't serve the developers community. Quite frankly if everything seems to be locked, I hope that LG provides a way to unlock the bootloader.

Which 4.3 ROM bricked your phone? Does the phone have a locked bootloader?
I am +1 on looking for original AT&T 4.3 ROM for ODIN.
The original 4.3 rom will be hard to find because AT&T only released 4.3 as a ota update, just like they did for the note 3 and s4.
If the bootloader is not locked, you could try flashing a stock 4.1.2 rom from sammobile.com. If it is locked, you'll have to keep looking.
Up
Can I extract 4.3 ROM from the device so it can be flashed to another one with 4.1?
Up for opinions
Does the phone with the 4.3 rom have a locked bootloader?
From what I remember 4.3 phone can be downgraded to 4.1 no problem
