Despite AT&T’s wishes that your HTC One X remain firmly locked and un-hackable, the fine folks at XDA have shown their hacking chops are still strong. To begin, all you need is a rooted AT&T HTC One X. Simple enough. Next, some knowledge in the world of ADB as well as a familiarity with a hex editor are necessary.

As with all great things mobile, XDA exists to make sure mobile enthusiasts always have the last say with their device.
