:( since alphrev can't work on the lastest WWE_2.30.405.1, i search all over the world and can't find any method to root this rom on a S-on device, that means i can't downgrade to a old Ruu either, so i want to try another way, flash a higher rom that could be rooted, it's comfirmd that the HTC DHD rom RUU_Ace_Gingerbread_S_SoftBank_JP_2.37.762.2_Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_release_186075_signed.exe could be root, but i am afraid the Hboot will not work on my IncS, can anybody give me a answer if i can?

thanks.

XTC

Use an XTC Clip to S-OFF Your device !!! Right now thats the only option available to you !!!

HTC DHD Rom would not help your case 2 !!! You are locked on the hardware level unlock it first then move on !!!

This is a Higher Rom And the Radio is also Higher so you need to do the Xtc Method or wait till Alpharevx team comes up with some brilliant idea to Root your ROM!!!
[HTC Incredible S] doctorsax:
Do not flash a ROM built for a different device to your phone. It's at best a waste of time and at worst dangerous to your device.

Hi guys. I use the MIUI launcher by visionary which I really like and has a good amount of custom icons. However, there are a few I would like to see that I cannot find anywhere. If you guys have them or would be willing to make them it would be much appreciated. I'm looking preferably for the squared icons for these apps:

AMEX

MMS

What's App

YPmobile

USA TODAY

Spectral Souls

Samurai II

Backstab

Mobile fow its an extensive list but I figure MB someone has these already. I wish I knew how to do it on my own because alot of the default icons look grateful already....they just have to be enlarged and squared.

[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
With support for the Wildfire S being dropped by AlphaRevX, it looks like the only way to achieve S-OFF is using an XTC clip. For me, it's a bit too expensive to justify buying a clip and using it only once. This thread is for anyone that's interested in pooling together and purchasing the regular XTC Clip that could be shared and then resold. Post below if you are interested and want your name and country added to the list at the bottom.

UK (run by mphi)

The process:

I ordered the clip, and posted it off to the first participant who will post it back to me once finished so that I can post it to the next participant and so on. Everything is done through eBay reputation so that all participants have some protection. I'll set up a fixed price listing with payments through PayPal. eBay buyer requirements: At least 10 positive feedback comments, with 95%+ positive.

Instructions:

First round complete!

Thanks drddrd, AlsoW, jean001luc, bolec, techtalkonline, BoNUK and l00k!

Second round: complete!

Third round: complete!

Fourth round:

New? Here's the eBay listing for Nov/Dec. (Remember your reputation must be at least 10 with 95%+ positive and you must be in the UK!)

Europe

MindBurn010 (Bulgaria)

Insaned (Portugal) Has purchased a clip and may be interested in a similar group buy if there is enough interest!

seanw712 (Antwerp, Belgium)

alex1972 (Romania)

Africa

[HTC Wildfire S] MindBurn010:
Hi mphi,

My I ask you to change the thread name like ... without (UK/EU), I don't wanna spam the forum with more threads of this kind so if you please everybody can use you thread and request group buy for different countries. We can use this as a DB... Just wonder who'll update the info in 1 post...

Hope you like the idea, otherwise I'll post another thread...

Anyway - I am looking for group buy for Bulgaria/Europe

Thanks, by the way nice idea "mphi" :)
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
That's a really good idea so I've updated my post above. Let me know if there are any additions you think my post needs!

[HTC Wildfire S] bolec:
Hi,iam up for it as well.Based in Hull, Yorkshire. I do travel all over the UK 5 days a week so could even drop off the clip to another person if i would be in that area.
[HTC Wildfire S] sonicpromo:
Have you considered XTC Clip Pay as you go?

I can let you have one of these for £20, this includes 1 unlock credit.

Each top up credit would be £15

I hope this helps, let me know if your interested

Thanks

[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
Hi Darren,

That's a great offer; thanks! I've seen your eBay auctions and the £97.99 price I quoted in the original post is from one of your listings ;)

Though I can't speak for everyone else, I'm a real cheapskate. And buying the non-PAYG clip and sharing it works out much cheaper in the long run:

Revenue from selling used clip @ £10 discount = £87.99 - 0.034*87.99 - £0.20 (Paypal fees) - £0.40 - £1.57 - 0.03*87.99 (eBay fees) = £80.18

Initial cost each = £97.99/5 = £19.60

Estimated actual cost each = (97.99 - 80.18)/5 = £3.57 + postage

(Refund after eBay sale of £16.03 each)

Would you ever consider an XTC Clip rental service? Say £7.50 + £80 collateral (to be refunded after the clip is received back)? PayPal reduces its fees proportionally after partial refunds and I think it would sell quite well...
[HTC Wildfire S] techtalkonline:
Hi,

I am in Licolnshire in the UK and would be willing to sign up for this too, provided that it is cheap enough of course!
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
Brilliant, added you to the list.

One more person and it would be an initial cost of about £20, then a refund of about £15 after resale on eBay.

Is everyone happy with this?
[HTC Wildfire S] jutley:
I want in aswell from uk Birmingham
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
Added.

Has the cost come down to an acceptable level for everyone yet? We're looking at an initial cost of £19.60 each (less than £5 after refund though).
[HTC Wildfire S] jutley:
I think more and more people will want this mite be better to wait and add a few more people in the next few days.
[HTC Wildfire S] BoNUK:
Yean, and me too plz!! Desperate to get rid of all this bloat ware, and tweak it a bit too.

EDIT: Ooops, i'm in Cornwall :)
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
Can you PM me your eBay username before I add you to the list? It's just that since you're new here you don't yet have a reputation to rely on ;)
[HTC Wildfire S] BoNUK:
My ebay name is PM (I think) hate ebay and not used it in a while, lol.

And how is this going to work? Send it from addy to addy and then back to you, or send the phones to you? The second is a much more efficient way of dealing with it, but now sure if I can live without my phone either, lol!
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
Thanks, added :)

Yep my intention was that it was to be sent from address to address. If people wanted to send phones to me to be unlocked, I would insist on sending the phones back via an insured courier so it would work out more expensive.

If you trust me enough and don't mind spending a bit more to cover the postage, I'm happy to do this as well.
[HTC Wildfire S] BoNUK:
I can't be without my phone tbh... Use it for my internet n stuff, it's just it "could" take a long time. I have waited a couple months now and a couple more won't hurt. As for cost... people are going to have to post the xtc clip anyway, and if I was posting it I would do insured post as it covers me too. :)

Just turned S-OFF last night. Rooted it right after. Now I'm doing all sorts of dangerous things to it.
[HTC Wildfire S] EddieN:
I dont have an ebay account since I dont use ebay to purchase/sell things, but I do have a PayPal account and would probably be willing to participate if there's enough interest.

Where do you click "create goldcard"? This seems to imply there is software somewhere, yet no description of how you run this software. Please remember, in answering, that I use Linux so it is wrong to assume Windows. If it does mean on a Windows machine please state this explicity.

Also, I inserted my XTC clip into a laptop with XP (I had to borrow one). But it says the USB device is not recognised. So there must be drivers. Where do you get these from?

Thanks.

[HTC Wildfire S] BoNUK:
Is this all going to be done through paypal? The returns i'm not bothered about too much... Getting it cheaper to begin with is my aim. Get it around 10% of the cost of a new one will make it all worth it. :)
[HTC Wildfire S] AlsoW:
I'm interested Bedfordshire/Hertfordshire area (that said 20 min from London).

Got the Wildfire S on Three, which gives you free Skype and MSN- sounds great...

Until you realise that you need to root it so that ONLY Skype and MSN connect OTA and everything else is limited to Wifi!

Unless someone knows another way other than the "All or nothing" via wifi/OTA...
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
Yep, all done through eBay and PayPal: pre-approved users only. That way everyone knows I'm legitimate and I know everyone else is too. Just think of the partial refund as returned collateral.

Would you be able to PM me your eBay username? More than happy to add you to the list but first I need a way of verifying your reputation ;)

Might be worth posting a separate thread about limiting other apps to WiFi -- I'm not sure myself.
[HTC Wildfire S] BoNUK:
When will we need to pay for it? Monday would be good for me :rolleyes: ;)
[HTC Wildfire S] jutley:
Yea i think you should decide a cut off date for parcipants and set a limit to how many people though the more the merry.
[HTC Wildfire S] bolec:
I agree. We should decide some date. What about monday 25th?

Edit: Also small suggestion. After sending clip to another person we could take a picture of the reciept from post office and send it here as a proof that clip has been sent.
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
To be honest, I think we have enough people already. I'm tempted to stop new participants from joining from now and out the eBay listing up before the weekend if everyone is okay with this...?
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
Good idea. Making it recorded (for 77p with Royal Mail) is also worthwhile, since that ensures proof of delivery too.
[HTC Wildfire S] jutley:
I am ready when you are can I suggest when the item gets sent on just a tracking number so it can be tracked via royal mail will do and can be shown on this thread as proof.
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
Ok, I edited the original post to discourage more people from signing up. I emailed Darren from unlockingshop.co.uk and he gave us a discount on the regular XTC Clip, so many thanks to him for that :)

I'll post the eBay listing online, with a few more details either later tonight or tomorrow. I'll need people to email me their eBay user IDs so I can pre-approve everyone for the listing.

Thanks everyone!
[HTC Wildfire S] jutley:
is the clip unlimted credits or will it have allocated credits on it?
[HTC Wildfire S] jean001luc:
Someone let me know how we want to proceed - i was one of the early ones to put my name down but forgot to track the thread

I have now put instant email notification to track it

thanks
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
It won't have allocated credits, but the clip does record the total number of unlocks it has performed.

If you could PM me your eBay ID, that would be great. :) Only one other guy (techtalkonline) needs to send me his and then I'll put up the listing on eBay and PM the link to everyone. Looks like he hasn't been on the forum for a few days so I'll send him a PM.

The XTC Clip should arrive at my house by Monday so then all we're waiting for is for everyone to sign up and pay via PayPal. Easy :D
[HTC Wildfire S] jutley:
Will the procedure to do the s-off be included when the clip arrives or any chance to knock up a quick guide how to do the process.
[HTC Wildfire S] l00k:

My Wildfire-S can just S-OFF!!!

OK, I am here, so it's all systems go, go, go!

I had a slight hiccup with my PM's. I had replied to mphi's PM to me a couple of days ago but when I checked today for any progress I couldn't see my reply so I sent another reply today. I checked that had been sent and lo and behold the first reply had magically appeared! Sorry to mphi for the spamming but it wasn't deliberate honest!

Perhaps mphi could update the first post with a running update of who has been clipped, who has the x-clip at present and who will get it next etc?

Damn good idea this btw!
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
We've currently already got enough people signed up, but I've added your name to the original post in case there is enough interest in a second round!

Just sent a PM to jean001luc, asking for his eBay ID. Once we have that, the eBay listing is put online and everyone's sent payment, I'll post off the clip to the first participant!

And I'll definitely try to keep the first post updated with the progress of the clip ;)

Edit: Looks like eBay put up their minimum fees from 5.25% to 10%. Bit annoying...
[HTC Wildfire S] l00k:
Got your PM I am interested

Emailed back with my id.
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
I've updated the original post with a timeline that I'll keep updated.

Only 3 more people to pay (and jean001luc to supply his ID) and then we're ready to go!
[HTC Wildfire S] techtalkonline:
Oops!

So sorry everyone, I just dived straight in and paid without fully reading the eBay listing. I should've paid direct through PayPal but did it via the eBay link instead so it will cost a little more because of the fees. Damn impatience!!

Good luck everyone with the S-OFF :D
[HTC Wildfire S] BoNUK:
I did too, like an idiot :s

Hope it wasn't too much of an issue!
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
Not a problem at all, I'm more worried about HTC releasing unlocked bootloaders before we can sell the clip :p

I think we should go ahead without jean001luc for now, was really expecting to hear something by now.

There's going to be one (maybe two) changes in the list order due to events happening on short notice. Those involved will use next day postage, so if you're near the bottom of the list at present, any delay will be kept to a minimum. Sorry about this! I'm waiting on a pm, but as soon as I've heard back from drddrd, we should be good to go.

I've made a quick web page where people can enter their PayPal transaction ID and confirm receipt of the clip, see (only) the address of the person they must post it too and submit tracking details. Much easier than everyone messaging me and me trying (and failing) to keep the first post updated. ;)

I'll PM the link once everything is finalised; hopefully I'll be able to post the clip tomorrow and PM the URL to everyone :)
[HTC Wildfire S] jean001luc:
Hi - Jean001luc is very much alive.

Im sorry - I hdnt put email notificaiton on for the thread so had no ideas what was happening.

Please let me know what is required from me - Im not too worried about the extra cost - just let me know when I get my turn with the clip :)

Thank you so much for organising this and I am MOST DEFINATELY interested in taking part

Thank you
[HTC Wildfire S] jean001luc:
What's a 'PM'? and who do I send it to?
[HTC Wildfire S] wilco_sg:

Hi,

Is there still a spare XTC clip? Count me in there's one.

Please PM me thank you.
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
Ahh, sorry, PM = private message. Please send one to me here: http://xdaforums.com/private.php?do=newpm&u=4158033

I'm afraid we can't add another person just yet. Perhaps when everyone is finished -- and if there is enough interest -- there can be a second round. Where are you located?
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
Okay, updates...

The order in which people will receive the clip has been modified: drddrd and AlsoW had some unavoidable events come up on short notice, so to avoid big delays I have moved them up the list. This was done on the condition that they send the clip via a 24hour delivery service so the impact of this change on everyone else is limited.

I've also moved jean001luc to the end until payment has been received, at which point I'll move him back to his previous position (now 3rd) if the clip has not already been sent on to bolec. (The first post has been updated with this info.)

Check your private messages!

I've sent a link to a webpage where you can enter your PayPal transaction ID (check your email from PayPal) and see the status of the clip and perform a few actions, etc. Please take a look when you have the time.

Oh and I've just packed the clip and will be posting it to drddrd tomorrow!

Thanks again everyone.
[HTC Wildfire S] jean001luc:
Done. Paid via paypal and in the process learnt what PMs are and that Im supposed to monitor them!
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
Okay, looks like PayPal sends the sender and recipient different transaction IDs. Whoops :rolleyes:

So I'm sending each person a custom link that I've verified to be working.

Any problems or questions, just ask!

[HTC Wildfire S] jikantaru:
Maybe they got fed up of wildfire s users bashing their chat room asking when will the xploit be released. But now no love for the wildfire s, only way is through xtc clip I'm happy someone in my place ordered one. :cool:
[HTC Wildfire S] imlgl:
Well, I will happily sell mine for around £25 if anyone wants to buy it haha.
[HTC Wildfire S] AlsoW:
I love Royal Mail. NOT.

They "failed to deliver" despite someone being here all day and stuck a form through the door saying to collect after 12 hours.

I collected it today and will post on first thing tomorrow.

In terms of it's use happy to report that on a HTC Wildfire S on the Three UK network that the XTC Clip happily put it to S-Off and rooted.

It also unlocked the telephone (checked using a Beeline (Russian) SIM Card).

With Rootchecker it FAILS on the basic check, but passes on the Advance Check.

I've now installed SuperUser from the marketplace, however attempts to install BusyBox and Titanium Backup are coming back with errors saying that I've not got superuser/"su binary was not found on your phone".

So any suggestions on what I've done wrong...

All I want to do is Backup, DroidWall, delete some of the preinstalled apps, and move Contacts and Mail to SD card and all new installs...

Thoughts?

(And yes, writing verbose so that it's more likely to turn up in searches for other people who get stuck ;) )
[HTC Wildfire S] imlgl:
Use gingerbreak. Will do everything for you and make it so you can use Titaniumbackup etc.
[HTC Wildfire S] mphi:
Yep, this is great advice. (APK here.) You need a ROM version that is susceptible to the gingerbreak exploit though, so you might need to downgrade to a ROM like this official one.
[HTC Wildfire S] imlgl:
Or install a custom rom already rooted, the best is wildspirit.
[HTC Wildfire S] mars83:
One wee question guys. Pretend I have S-OFF and I've installed custom ROM. Now pretend I went nuts and I want to back to standard HTC ROM. I know I'll lost my root, but what about S-OFF thing? Is it changing too?
