Outdated Root Method

A heads up to anyone just now finding this thread. You must have the original release ROM or the very first security update released two days after launch (1.19.651.0 -OR- 1.19.651.1) to use this method. If you have the v2.x (security) or 3.x (ICS) updates, you CANNOT root with this tool. Anyone looking to root on any of the newer software versions must unlock their bootloader and flash recovery/superuser to get root. Most of this is mentioned in the first post.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] KillerNut:
My thanks once again to all who have contributed to this thread.

I still have my HTC Evo Design 4G. Rooted it several months ago using this tool (it was called kingdomscript at the time). A while back I was able to unlock the bootloader and install a version of CWM recovery so I can flash roms. The only thing I don't have is S-OFF.

Sprint just released ICS to the Evo Design the other day. Has anyone who has the unlocked bootloader and rooted with this tool been able to do the upgrade? And if so, are you still root? I am not able to do either the v2 (HTC) or v3 (ICS) upgrades, my phone freezes on the HTC splash screen and the upgrade never completes.

If anyone has been able to successfully upgrade to ICS, perhaps you could create a rom and upload it. Otherwise maybe you could recommend a rom as I am able to flash roms in CMW recovery.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Skellinator:
My design 4g is not rooted because I had to swap it out for one with newer update on it a while back. The latests update , if it is ics, is total crap. You do not want to do it to your phone! If I had a way to go back I sure would. I am tempted to go to sprint and raise hell because the phone is slow as hell now. Just my 2 cents.

Virus in newly posted file?

I was excited to see a re-posting of the SuperTool file, but when I downloaded it, ESET Security terminated the connection and quarantined the file as a threat of the type "Android/Exploit.Lotoor.AT trojan".

Anyone else have this problem, or is this some kind of false-positive?

S-off

I don't know if I am doing this right, if so someone please tell me so. I would appreciate the help. I have an Htc Evo 4g, love the phone.

I am currently running decks reloaded and Amon-ra 4.3 recovery. Both great Rom and Recovery. My question is can I use this method to just get s-off, Already rooted using Htc method. Also how to go about it, without unrooting(I have read somewhere that rooting a rooted phone creates an unrooted phone. Don,t get me wrong, I can do everything through the sdk tools. But by having s-off I can flash everything through recovery.

Instead of taking the long way around. Thanks for all the help. :)

Finally got a HTC design and hate the slowness, wanting to just yank out all the Sprint crap out of it... maybe put the WiMax on my Clear account as a modem ;)

sooooooo from what i read here i can "root" it then yank everything out i don't want to muck up everything else. But i can't find the tool, no sweat New Mexico is nice this time of year, we can wait... but the question i have is will it work with the ICS update. And maybe frigid if you could update the first post of the thread (when you get time) too say if it will work with ICS. :D

Soo... no more support for this phone?? I have the ICS update (which is crap BTW) I would like to finally root this junk, but now reading through all the posts, it seems links are broken and what not.. And nothing I can do since I'm on ICS anyway? A previous poster said if on ICS I would need to unlock BL and do something else that was mentioned in the first post (which I didn't see anywhere) But do I even bother doing anything if no other DL links work?

I guess scrap the phone and deal with the fact that I have to get a new wall mountable sized phone? I love the Design, but the ICS update was garbage to the point where I switched back to my 9930 for now..

But what else can I do?

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Supaiku:
I'd like to put a response up on how I got my friend's HTC Legend loaded with CWM and subsequently rooted.

Again, this is for an HTC Legend! I don't know if it may or may not be the same for other HTC phones.

I didn't go through and read the whole thread, but when I was searching to a solution to the permissions errors when running supertool I later discovered that with HTC's (relatively new?) bootloader unclocking method (via their HTCdevs website), you can flash the otherwise "S-OFF" Clockwork mod image with no problem via fastboot (again, once *UNLOCKED* through the HTC website). This ultimately makes the Supertool scripts superfluous. Once you have clockwork mod flashed, rooting is simply a matter of flashing a rooted ROM, or root package through CWM.

FOR HTC LEGEND!

It's not as complicated as it once was, needing complex scripts, gold cards, and whatnot.

1. Unlock via HTC website (requires that you flash appropriate RUU image updating hboot, and register and perform other procedures which may void parts of your warranty)

2. Flash the S-OFF CWM Recovery img (not zip!) via fastboot as per instructions (but again, flash the previously denoted "S-OFF" compatible .img recovery onto your now *UNLOCKED* S-ON Legend phone.

*contrary to what it says in the thread, with an *UNLOCKED* S-ON bootloader, it's possible to flash the image, and everything works fine (as best as I can tell, and I don't see why it shouldn't. The zip format was meant to allow you to flash it through the native recovery, because security features were restricting fastboot's access to recovery files; with an unlocked bootloader this is no longer an issue, despite the phone still being S-ON it's unlocked and allows flashing of the recovery files via fastboot.)

3. Flash your desired rooted (or stock) ROM, or root package etc. Anyhow, once you've got CWM Recovery loaded it's just like any other phone...

Thanks frigid for your hard work! Though it seems HTC has become a bit more amicable:)

I have an HTC Hero S, which I've read is the same as the Kingdom and Evo Design, but when I try to root my phone I get completely lost. This is my first time ever doing anything special to my phone, so I'm a pretty massive noob at it. I've unlocked my bootloader using HTCDev already, and in fastboot my phone says *UNLOCKED* and S-ON. I've also used the SuperTool and it flashed saying it rooted (step/option 3), but step/option 4 (sim-unlock, S-OFF, etc.) does not work and tells me to place the bin file HTCDev gave me into the root folder...which I've already done. I downloaded the CWK file but have absolutely no clue what I'm supposed to do with that, either; I don't think it's on my phone and don't know how to put it there. Root checker says my phone isn't rooted, so where I went wrong is beyond my knowledge....maybe someone here could inform me? All help is appreciated!

Scratch the above. I just noticed that you have an HTC Pico Explorer not the HTC Wildfire S (maybe that doesn't matter but in case it does) this is the XDA page for the pico

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1750

And I will update with another link for the part you are looking for regarding unlocking the bootloader. On that note it may be that you have to use HTCs ruu in order to have the correct hboot version so that you can unlock the bootloader via their site. I had to do this for my Wildfire S phones before I could successfully submit the unlock token for unlocking my bootloader. I don't know for sure as I haven't researched about your phone further than getting the above link and looking at some images of your device. What a tiny little phone it is you must be hung like a horse

I tried to S-off my already HTC dev unlocked Desire S (SAGA) wir Hboot 2.0002. (option 4: S OFF).

The part with the unlock code from HTC dev was not necessary, so I ignored it, cause I did it before already. Or does the tool change it before applying?

Now it is unlocked but already S-On.

Do you have any ideas?

Hey all. I have an HTC EVO Design 4G that I am trying to root.

I used the guide at HTCdev after the SuperTool failed to work, and I was able to unlock the bootloader.

I then tried using the SuperTool to root the phone and I used both preps for Rooting, then I tried rooting and it didn't work.

The gist of the failure is that it wasn't able to change permissions to rw; instead the phone stayed read-only.

USB Debugging (and/or Developer Options) on Freedompop Design 4G?

Hi All,

Ok I looked all over the web (and XDA), and no luck here.

I'm trying to sim-unlock a Freedompop Evo Design 4G (basically a rebranded Sprint phone).

The problem is there are no developer options (including USB debugging). I even downloaded and installed 2 different apps that promised to enable it, but it didn't work.

So when I run this tool (HTC Super Tool v3) and pick option 4, it gets stuck on rebooting to fastboot.
