[HTC Sensation] shadowofzeus:
Also he has been sick for the last few days so he hasn't been on the net much.
[HTC Sensation] NYCguy2020:
Just one bad news after another.Oh well,so much for a "flagship" device.BTW any news about a US release of the Samsung GS2 ??!
[HTC Sensation] shadowofzeus:
Not on T-Mobile. We are getting the Samsung Hercules. Which is pretty much the sensation samsung style. Same Qualcomm cpu family bigger screen smaller resolution. So on and so forth.
[HTC Sensation] motoman234:
It made me sad seeing him say he's not working on fre3dom anymore. No one knows for sure if alpharevx is even coming for sure. I know its been said but that doesn't mean everything. I've seen a ton of people on the fence lately about if its true or not.

On another note, did anyone notice in the leaked alpharevx video, the Sensation goes from S-ON to S-OFF to Alpharevx S-OFF. Hopefully that's just the process. I am getting really bored of being locked :).

Hope you get to feeling better man.
[HTC Sensation] stoneyjonez:
I follow agrabren on Twitter and I don't remember anything about stopping working on Fre3dom completely.
[HTC Sensation] smoochiezz24:
Its in the OP
[HTC Sensation] dubie76:
If I remember correctly, he got pretty upset and said that Alpharevx stole his work and he would not be moving forward anymore.
[HTC Sensation] nooge9:
"agrabren: Since @alpharevx has admitted to having s-off on both the Sensation and EVO 3D, dev on #Fre3Dom is officially over."

http://twitter.com/agrabren/status/93334461697105920
[HTC Sensation] jackpearce:
He didn't say or insinuate that they stole his work. He said that he shared his info with then while but that they never shared theirs with him. As it turned out they had already achieved s-off all the while.
[HTC Sensation] karnovaran:
You should edit this because it's completely false and we don't need to have others thinking it's true. He never claimed anyone stole anything.
[HTC Sensation] Bxsteez:
Its just a bit strange that this thread was closed and it has been reopened. I wonder why.......
[HTC Sensation] cpittman:
Accidental click by a mod most likely. Thread is dead and so is the drama between developer's. Move on and let the thread die.
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
I really hope fre3dom continues despite what alpha does.
[HTC Sensation] vabeach454:
Well... If Alpharev has it then were the F*** is it?? This waiting for S-OFF Sucks!!! :(
[HTC Sensation] frankinstine:
I know it sucks but we have no choice but to wait, I have turned my focus to modding other peoples phones just to get my flashing/dev fix,lol
[HTC Sensation] motoman234:
I know it sucks waiting but being hostile won't help any. We shall see hopefully the beginning of this week ;). I can only imagine the madness its going to bring to the Sensation forums once its here :):):).
[HTC Sensation] Shaquiel Harris:
Alpharev already said its going to be here this week. Now stop whining about it. I really hope they dont give it to everyone.
[HTC Sensation] smoochiezz24:
Not saying I doubt you, but there's alot of speculation going on, you gotta show our have some source of proof with a statement like that.
[HTC Sensation] Jimmah555:
I am doing the same thing. My Wife inherited my old G2 and hates the stock crap, so she let me put CM7 on it. Now she loves it, but I'm jealous. I had so much fun modding hers that I want to mod mine.

Have patience everyone. It will get here when it gets here. Getting mad at Alpharev is like getting mad at your parents for not giving you money you never actually earned. Be thankful there are people out there working hard to get it unlocked, and give supportive comments rather than angry ones (I'd bet that donations are fine too). I'm sure you wouldn't like it if people were rushing you and getting angry at you for not working fast enough, would you? We've all had that a$$hole boss breathing down our necks at some point in our lives. Not fun.
[HTC Sensation] joemm:
Sensation-Devs > HTC Facebook post posted 7/24

Arz Bhatia is suppose to be in contact with Alpharev since he is the writer for Sensation Devs.

But it gets here when it gets here,

I cant believe the sense of entitlement people have in the Sensation Forums....baby's trying to rule the world from their high chairs...be productive and try adding to the pot instead of taking all the time..

^^^ Not directed at you smoochiezz24......:)
[HTC Sensation] silentsnow31802:
I heart the above post...
[HTC Sensation] Jaywan:
When and where did they post that. All i saw was " there will be a lot of work going into it this weekend that may or may not result in a release" can i see a link to that post.
[HTC Sensation] Shaquiel Harris:
Post or two sbovd yours. Its in the sensation devs irc channel as well.
[HTC Sensation] smoochiezz24:
Its not actually on Sensation-Devs Facebook but Htc's http://www.facebook.com/HTC/posts/10150377325923084 And thats not Alpharevx saying it, its the writer of Sensation-devs. No hardcore proof that Alpharevx said it, but then again there is none that they haven't so I'm gonna remain neutral on that news.

My friend let me mod his captivate and it turned into me flashing 3 different roms that night because I missed it so much...
[HTC Sensation] agrabren:
We ran into a snag in our method of s-off... A completely bricked device. It has slowed us down a bit.
[HTC Sensation] fiendskillz:
Its alright! try and try again! we appreciate it <3
[HTC Sensation] Joolz03:
Does this mean that fre3dom is still alive?

joolz sensation
[HTC Sensation] DarkManX4lf:
Damn, yeah definitely do not want a bricked phone.
[HTC Sensation] wombat131:
I certainly hope so! The more the merrier! ;)
[HTC Sensation] k2buckley:
Thanks for continuing work on S off, and for the sacrificed device. Good luck.
[HTC Sensation] eXceed:
That's a shame agrabren but good luck in finding the solution and no rush :)
[HTC Sensation] HannoSLM:
there are not enough thanks buttons for you
[HTC Sensation] miniterror:
did you also have succes with other sensations?
[HTC Sensation] GabrielSousa:

"found it agrabren@yahoo.com hope its enough cant afford more atm :)"
[HTC Sensation] Jaywan:
Good to know someone is working on a real S-OFF. You know one that exists.
[HTC Sensation] hmoroni:
Agreed. Tired of several rumors without basis and unreal ETA's.
[HTC Sensation] gcng:
agrabren, check your inbox.
[HTC Sensation] Sloopjoshb:
Where did you get this info? Not saying I don't believe you just would like to see it with my own eyes.
[HTC Sensation] RestInPieces209:
I don't know about this week... But on Twitter he said he's pretty sure they will beat htc to it.
[HTC Sensation] smoochiezz24:
Its a rumor from the sensation-devs writer and has already been addressed in the following posts.
[HTC Sensation] cmyasika1:
I'm Sorry if this is in the incorrect thread, But I had a question. Since HTC is unlocking the Boot loaders for the 3d next month, is it possible to get s-off on the 4g?
[HTC Sensation] nccu_eagles:
Google is your friend
[HTC Sensation] mexxxico:
Yes, will be possible and will be easier

Swyped from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
[HTC Sensation] dlads:
Beating HTC to it means within next month, doesn't matter because it's in the pipeline but a reg update would be nice and would hopefully stop all these threads which make you think it's been released.

We're all so used to having a rooted device with S-Off, having one which is stuck on stock is kind of a come down, that's why everyones so exited about it being set free.

Like i said a regular update would be nice.
[HTC Sensation] chevy383surfing:
I don't quite understand the question.

:confused:
[HTC Sensation] GabrielSousa:
we dont know that is bootloader unlock to HTC

we can have bootloader unlock with s-on..

i hope NOT
[HTC Sensation] Marreboy:
I don't know either what bootloader unlock is to HTC. But I would not put any money on them releasing it with complete s-off also.

Unlocking the bootloader with s-on should still allow us to flash custom roms. But unlocking it with s-off could allow us to do "dangerous" things to our device. Or at least things that the mobile operators don't want us to do.

IMHO ;)
[HTC Sensation] tenbeau:
I must agree with you!!! Also I am very skeptical of the unlock coming anytime soon to the Sensation regardless of what they say at this point. I hope they prove me wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
[HTC Sensation] zonyl:
I'm guessing that htc will allow us to flash only partitions involved with kernel, initrd, and system. They will probably still lock radio, hboot, recovery.

This would be fine for most, but not for everyone.

The delay is them likely writing a new hboot and recovery for all of this, and a tool for carrier to reset the device for troubleshooting.
[HTC Sensation] cmstlist:
Keeping recovery locked would not go over well with the dev community. I think if HTC were to take that route they would be seen as breaking the spirit of their promise.
[HTC Sensation] tenbeau:
I agree with your statement. My only question is since when have HTC or Samsung etc. worried about breaking the spirit of their promise? I really hope I am wrong but I have a feeling that if and when it does come it will not be what all expect. I guess I have become a "I believe it when I see it" person.
[HTC Sensation] zonyl:
Just a guess.. I'm with ya on having freedom across all partitions, just don't think that will happen.

Who knows, they may make a really kick-ass recovery for us. Backup / restore, format / clear data that always works first time, touch screen interface, dual boot, etc ;)
[HTC Sensation] Jimmy Flip:
There would be no point at all in HTC locking recovery. Unlocking the bootloader means you can load custom firmware. The Nexus One demonstrates that HTC know exactly what an unlocked bootloader means. I can't see any benefit to HTC locking recovery if they are explicitly allowing custom firmware to be flashed. I think that HTC will allows to users to get full S-OFF but it will be done with a remote service so that HTC (and carriers) know exactly which phones have been unlocked using the HTC method.
[HTC Sensation] motoman234:
I completely agree with what you said. I hear WAY too many speculations about this stuff. There is nothing we can do but wait and see. I do though have a feeling that we are going to be seeing HTC release S-OFF first, I hope I'm wrong.

Great. Now i hope no one will create like 10 threads on it. S-OFF here we come!
[HTC Sensation] crx4xharder:
Hopefully getting my second sensation today. I went back to the g2x so I could crackflash muahaha!

Oh and i realised HTC released the source code for the Flyer and the Desire Z for kernel 2.6.35 but no sensation!!!

What about the 3D

Awesome, the best for today, this make my day goo nicely.....

[Q] S=off but can't root

Hi Fre3vo team, Thank you so much for your work.

Someone @ the MT4g root forum reccomended I use fre3vo or gingerbreak because my 2.2.1 (ota update) seems to be blocking Visionary+ (R14)

Please help, should I use gingerbreak even though it says it may sometimes work on Froyo? or should i use fre3vo?

Words like may and sometimes make me hesitate. Is this fre3vo method safe for an HTC glacier with 2.2.1 ota from tmobile? Even though the top article specifically says: "Fre3vo is a temp-root acquiring tool, allowing users access to a root shell on their HTC EVO 3D and Sensation devices."

BTW:

Tysvm2: the folks that wrote: the true root article @

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=858996

I am trying to flash a custom recovery and rom (hoping to do: panache or CM7 and twrp recovery

(PG86IMG.zip) My end goal is to run netflix app on htc glacier)

I have succeeded in setting up ADB/SDK drivers, etc.

On hboot i see: S=off

I am having a PROBLEM with TRUE ROOT gfree method

At step 12. It says:

"If this is the first time you have rooted your device you will need to run visionary again (temproot w/set system r/w after root checked and then attempt permroot) to make root privileges permanent and then reboot again. Now "su" should work properly for you."

I've run into a problem :

Visionary R14 not working nor is visionary 1.0 (is that the same as R11, btw)

Suggestions please.

thank you,

CP

HTC GLACIER

Tmobile ota android 2.2.1

s=off

bootloader version 0.86.0000

also: HTC DREAM aka Tmobile g1 rooted with cyanogen old school

Ps: I'm new to the forum culture and I want to be sure to be respectful and post properly; if this is not a proper place for this kind of question please redirect me patiently
[HTC Sensation] emm_stra:
Today my phone updated to 1.45 ota.

After that I tried this tool to temp root and it didn't work.

Is it due to new update? is there any updated version of this tool? fre3vo tool i mean.
[HTC Sensation] nardone24:
Man u should never take n update for any electronic that u want to hack... First u should always read the forums and let another idiot try it first
[HTC Sensation] eisteh:
Calling the devs idiots is a bit harsh, isn't it :p
[HTC Sensation] nardone24:
You totally missed what I was saying. I wasn't referring to any developers
[HTC Sensation] emm_stra:
Ok

Is there an updated version of this tool that works or something else. I want to temporary root my phone without s-off.
[HTC Sensation] nardone24:
Why temp root? U know it is only good until a reboot?
[HTC Sensation] tko_gx:
Application as root.

I have read 90% of posts in this thread..and i couldn't get an answer for my question...

Am I able to run an application as root? (with or without locked bootloader)

With temp-root I was not able to run the application (as mentioned by some people).

Thanks.

EDIT: I have found this can someone confirm it's legit?

addictivetips.com/mobile/permanent-temp-root-for-htc-sensation-now-available/
[HTC Sensation] Sdobron:
You can if you push the su binaries and busybox.

There is a script by Eugene to do just that.

However, only some root apps will work.
[HTC Sensation] tko_gx:
Thanks I will give it a shot. Will it void warranty or does it return to original state? Checked the thread and didn't seem to find any info.

All I need is to run a simple command... "echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches"
[HTC Sensation] savysb:
Fre3vo file

Edit: found it, it worked. If anyone needs the file, contact me, I can make e big archive and email it or something.
[HTC Sensation] KernelDev101:
this wont work with your device. Please use a goldcard and that will let you downgrade :) use the search button and search for " how to create goldcard "
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Gold card doesn't work on sensation! Goldcard is for nandroid flash devices

Sensation got EMMC
[HTC Sensation] cmstlist:
Downgrading a Desire Z from Gingerbread requires both Fre3vo *and* a gold card.
[HTC Sensation] savysb:
Actually it worked. Not this method, I was just searching for fre3vo file for my HTC Desire Z.

Avast seems to have something against me, as soon as I disabled it I was able to download it from cyanogenmod.com

Sorry for the disturbance in the force!
[HTC Sensation] Shatterv2:
Explained perfectly.

But lets keep the thread clean.
[HTC Sensation] phonegod:
your right just tryna make a point to a point sorry
[HTC Sensation] wrxtc714:
Edit

I was wrong. I ll just take my own advice

We should really stop asking questions and wait for him to update the op.

We don't want a cluttered thread here.

If you would like to say thank you then feel free to use his thanks button but don't post just to say thank you. Some of you may be new around here so just know that these things are frowned upon.

I am just as excited as the rest of you.

Let's just keep the thread clean and wait for him to update us for now.

All of your questions will eventually be answered in the op.
[HTC Sensation] HashTagHell:
Hahaha. I'd have to agree. I like the phone, the Sense 3.0 and the whole nine. I just want root for reasons like: screenshots, bloatware, etc.
[HTC Sensation] dantosxd:
Please read the original post.

Fre3vo is for temp root on the EVO 3d and SENSATION

Freedom is for S=OFF on those devices
[HTC Sensation] Sdobron:
Change the damn launcher if you don't like Sense. I prefer Cyanogenmod, but having upgraded to a Sensation from a Vibrant I'd take Sense over Touchwiz any day of the week.
[HTC Sensation] mike105105:
Because some of us bought the phone due to the design and great hardware specs and would love to run a different Rom on said hardware....
[HTC Sensation] galaxys:
Great to see this thread and team! Can't wait for root!!
[HTC Sensation] r3awak3n:
Thanks to the guys that are working on this. Htc is lazy and we will get root before they s off the devices. Devs always ahead of this huge multi bil dollar conpanies!

Edit: stop complaining on this thread. This is a good thread, there is nothing to ***** abt.
[HTC Sensation] Eng_Hassan85:
really awesome topic :D ,waiting for download and testing on Sensation ;)
[HTC Sensation] wadill:
"agrabren: We're just waiting on the results of one last test and fre3vo will be made available to the dev community! #teamwin" 4 mins ago from twitter

Be looking for fre3vo!
[HTC Sensation] nugzo:
WTF Lazy? Do you see how many phones these guys are releasing all the time? unlocking the bootloader is low on their very very very full calendar. HTC is lazy that just makes me laugh. You think HTC was racing the devs here? Wow! i really don't think you should be rooting a phone, even with video instructions. Lazy HTC will have to replace your bricked phone... Thats the reason they are taking so long, trying to protect their livelihood and unlocking the right way. I'm sure they have lawyers, analysts, engineers, developers, hundreds of people doing work on unlocking the bootloaders.....The way a smart company should. They arent trying to figure out how do to it, they are getting all their ducks in a row, dotting i's crossing t's and doing it the right way.

PS i'm sorry about contributing the worthless post count in this thread, only one worth anything is the first one, the rest should be deleted. Use the Thanks button or donate.
[HTC Sensation] Flippy125:
No, its like buying a computer and complaining that you can't install another OS on it. Either way, we will be able to very soon. Let's stop the infantile behavior and get back on topic.

Fre3sation ;)
[HTC Sensation] mpmilestogo:
I'm wondering if the temp root solution will be something like visionary on the G2 phone. That was quite useful but it really whetted everyone's appetite's for gfree. I really like that name too! I think temp root is very useful at a few levels. I really enjoyed the entire development environment after gfree came out for the G2. Thanks guys for this. I'm donating. I'm always amazed at how disruptive this process truly is and how we all benefit from the efforts and dedication of these guys.

Much appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] RestInPieces209:
The op says that fre3vo is for evo 3d and sensation, and fre3dom is for evo 3d and sensation. So shouldn't they be done at the same time?
[HTC Sensation] Flippy125:
They may do an update after but we probably won't know until release. The fact that he posted here gives a small hint that it probably will be released at the same time.
[HTC Sensation] Squeaky369:
A little off topic; but since the exploit seems to be the same with both phones, and they are virtually the same phone other then RAM difference and the two cameras; when ROM's come out, they should be pretty easy to get them to work on both phones, right?
[HTC Sensation] azsl1326:
I have to believe it will be suitable for the Sensation, otherwise I doubt the OP would waste his time and ours by creating a post.
[HTC Sensation] jermx:
Check out his twitter : http://twitter.com/#!/agrabren

He says he needs someone to test for the sensation so maybe not yet for us.
[HTC Sensation] RestInPieces209:
I think myaybe he got a hold of a sensation. I really don't think we would have started a thread saying it was for sensation until he tested it.
[HTC Sensation] azsl1326:
That's from yesterday. After the post, a few board members who own Sensations and live in Austin were supposed to have contacted him.
[HTC Sensation] dubie76:
I live in Austin and PMd and tweeted him to offer my Sensation for testing but never got a reply.
[HTC Sensation] jermx:
Oh well, we'll just wait for the result to come out then :) We'll know in awhile :)
[HTC Sensation] AndroTMO:
Test is being setup now. Soon my friends we will know.
[HTC Sensation] KeeperOfThePizza:
You mean porting Evo 4G roms to Sensation(and clockwise)? Then yes... may not be easy but i would believe less work would need to be done.
[HTC Sensation] Five0nIt:
Yea me too.
[HTC Sensation] dubie76:
@agrabren just tweeted that we will have some exciting news within the next hour!

[HTC Sensation] dubie76:
ANy confirmation if this is temp or perm root?
[HTC Sensation] jermx:
temp root. mentioned before. S-OFF then we'll get perm root.
[HTC Sensation] frankinstine:
+1 like he stated, temp root, s-off, permanent root, then happy flashing!

That'll make me really happy for now, freeze some bloat, place some data for my saved games. Happy camper here.
[HTC Sensation] Lakeshow423:
You should tell him to post! I would hit the thanks button infinite times if I could! Thanks brotha!
[HTC Sensation] AndroTMO:
Temp Root achieved.

Agrabren is the real one to thank. I just typed in what he told me to.

:D

Now, we need the su binary, hboot, recovery, and we are free to flash to our hearts content.
