Proceed at your OWN Risk
I have compiled a simple and comprehensive guide on how to achieve root, or SuperUser permissions, on almost any ROM on the international One X, granted your bootloader is unlocked.
(This may also work on the AT&T and/or Rogers One XL, but I haven't tried it)
So considering your bootloader is unlocked, and you have a custom recovery, (steps for custom recovery here) along with fastboot files on your computer (used when unlocking bootloader) proceed with these steps:
1) Download the flashable SuperSU zip file (by Chainfire) from here:
http://download.chainfire.eu/204/SuperSU/CWM-SuperSU-v0.94.zip
And keep a copy of it in your phone.
2) When your phone is on, press and hold the power and volume down button, till it boots into the hboot screen (white screen with some text near the top), don't worry if it takes a screenshot, just keep on holding the buttons.
3) Select 'Recovery' from there.
4) In recovery, wipe cache partition, then go to advanced, and clear dalvik cache.
5) Choose install Zip from SDCard, choose zip from SDCard, go to the folder where the SuperSU zip is located, and flash that.
6) After its successfully flashed, reboot your phone.
7) You will find an app called 'SuperSU.'
8) Now, when you launch an app that requires root permissions, like Titanium Backup and Go Backup, a dialog box will pop up, and if you allow it, the app will be granted root permissions!
Congratulations, you are now rooted
Lastly, enjoy, and do let me know If it works for you, ask me any question in this thread and I will do my best to reply to it ASAP, also, do hit Thanks
