The Android community has come through once again to bring down the oppressive walls of the big name carriers. While the AT&T HTC One X will not accept tokens, that didn’t stop the awesome developers over at XDA-Developers.  We all knew it could be done, just a matter of how fast. I don’t know about you but 3 days is freakin awesome!

Hit the break for more info!

1. Download and install the HTC mobile phone drivers.
• Windows
2. Download the onxr.zip file. (Mirror)
3. Extract onxr.zip into a directory on your computer.
4. Plug your HTC One X into your computer via USB.
• Recommended: Plug your device’s USB cable into the back of your computer if you’re using a desktop PC.
5. Enable USB Debugging on your HTC One X.
• Settings >> Developer Options >>USB debugging (checked)
6. Place the phone in Charge Only mode.
• Pull down notifications bar, click on USB connection type, and switch to “Charge only.”
7. Double click root.bat to run the script. (Windows)
• Linux users: double click root-linux.sh.
• Mac users: double click root-mac.sh.
8. Congratulations! Your device will reboot a number of times and then you will have full root access.
