best way to get s-off and root is the wiki guide:

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_Vision_.28G2.2FDZ.29_and_DHD

part of it is how to install cwm recovery ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doc76013:
This is the best that I have seen. IF you follow the directions you will have this done without hassle. I am so much a noob and I was able to root and s-off my g2 in less than two hours. I did my wifes phone in about an hour.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebreo:
Thanks i will try it.

Homever can i install just cwm for flash any ics' rom or i must root my pda too?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DruKe:
I'm trying to root my brothers Evo again and running into some problems.

Back story: I had rooted his device with Revolutionary and he was running CM7 just fine. He started to have troubles with his screen so we unrooted it and got S-ON back. He took his phone to Sprint and instead of replacing the device, they decided to just replace the screen on it.

Current story: Downloaded Revolutionary and ran it and got this;

=============================================
| Revolutionary S-OFF & Recovery Tool 0.4pre4 |
=============================================
Brought to you by AlphaRev & unrEVOked.

Waiting for device...
Found your device: PC36100 (supersonic-6.17.0001, Android: 2.3.3, ROM version: 4.53.651.1)

Your device is already S-OFF, what exactly do you think you're doing? Not setting S-OFF.

Do you want to download (Internet connection required) and flash ClockworkMod Recovery? [Y/ny

Downloading recovery for your phone (supersonic)...Done.
Rebooting to fastboot...
Flashing recovery over fastboot...INFOsignature checking...
FAILED. Unable to flash recovery. Please download custom recovery yourself and flash it over fastboot.

So here I am with the HBOOT saying that S-ON and Revolutionary telling me it's off and won't turn it off.

Not sure where to go from here!?

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flowsick:
When it tells you that your Device is already S-OFF, you should have an option to turn it off regardless.

If that doesn't work, I guess you could try and use another method to do it.

and if THOSE don't work, I guess you could just sbf flash it it
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DruKe:
I don't have an option to turn it off regardless.. it finds the device and logs the fact it thinks S-OFF is present and asks to download the recovery.

I thought revolutionary was the only option for HBOOT 1.6 at this point. Is this incorrect?

Also what do you mean by sbf flash it?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
You didn't do the last step after getting S-ON, which is flashing a stock ROM. Because of your HBOOT version, Revolutionary thinks you're already S-OFF. You need to flash a stock ROM to normalize your HBOOT version, and then Revolutionary will work.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flowsick:
He cannot flash a stock ROM if he is S-ON. Sbf basically resets everything on your phone back to its "out of the box" state
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imheroldman:
@Druke, can you get to recovery? If there is no recovery you may want to RUU back to 4.54 then try revolutionary again. Or just go through the un-rooting steps again.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] intrlude:
Just remember to not do any updates after RUU'ing back to 4.54! Then you'll have to use other methods to unlock and revert. Good luck.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
This is incorrect. You can flash a signed HTC stock ROM in PC36IMG format (or RUU on a PC for that matter) just fine. As I said, that's the last necessary step to returning the device to stock conditions. Trust me, I've done it probably almost 100 times.

P.S. Since I'm the one that came up with the unrooting method that was used, I would know :rolleyes:.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DruKe:
I did try an RUU yes. I will need to try an RUU again. The one I used must have been unsigned or unofficial somehow. Anyone help me out? With the megaupload thing it seems all the links around here have dried up. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
The unrooting Revolutionary root link in my sig has links to some PC36IMG zips that can be flashed in bootloader.

I recommend the 4.54 version. Sometimes it won't work if you're using a version that's too old, or if your SD card isn't a high capacity card or got corrupted somehow.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortydoggg:
4.54 RUU or PC36IMG is the most likely to work, however, 4.24 and 4.53 contain the same HBOOT needed for Revolutionary to work again as well.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
Of course, but my recommendation was referring to the ones posted in the link :rolleyes:.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DruKe:
I tried grabbing the 4.54 version from you post however the link to it is dead.

Got dropbox? :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
It shouldn't be - I refreshed those links earlier today and changed them to 4shared. When did you last try?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DruKe:
So weird.. works now! Thanks a ton! I'll give it a shot this weekend. Hopefully everything goes aces!

Thanks again.
[HTC Rezound] ih8mydroid:
This was common on my droid x for so long while flashing but is it a good form of practice on the Rezound? The reason I am asking is I flashed Bamfs Cubed rom and my charging led goes from orange to green at 98%, never making it to 100. Would it be wise to go ahead and wipe battery stats and see if it fixes it? I presume there would be no harm to the system or battery in doing this.

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
There's really no harm in doing it but Google has come out and said that wiping battery stats doesn't do anything.

http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...-battery-stats-does-not-improve-battery-life/
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
I always got a good laugh when people would post how "bump charging" & then deleting this file gave them an immediate dramatic increase in battery life.

This has to be the ultimate placebo effect.........
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
Don't agree. Just like I don't agree with people saying task killers are bad. I guess with the way I use my phone I get different results. I have always noticed better battery life wiping battery stats. Now it could be that the OS will fix battery stats itself over time, but when you ate bouncing around a different rom every two days then the OS doesn't really get a better feel for the battery.

Plus...I came from the evo 4G where we uses trickle charge kernels and I want those back. Never had better battery life than when I had those. Was doing 35+ hours a charge on the stock battery.
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
tried telling our kernel devs about the trickle charge?

sent from tapatalk on my rezound
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
Haven't bothered since I never could get the thunderbolt devs to try it. There was "reported" cases with no proof that it caused some batteries to go bad. Even then they were cheap Chinese batteries that 2 people total I think it was claimed went bad.

It was always nice to pull your phone off the charger in the morning at 100% instead of it showing 100% and you pulling it off the charger to say 92%.
[HTC Rezound] Marine6680:
Well there is the fact that Li-Ion batteries can not be trickle charged after reaching full charge...

Well they can, but it will hurt the battery. And that isn't me talking from a few bad battery posts... but from knowing how Li-ion batteries work and charge... and reading engineering papers about Li-Ion batteries.

Luckily trickle charging is slow and most people only leave the battery on the charger over night at most. Plus they charge while the device is running and using power. Should someone leave the charger going for 24 hours, with the device off, we would probably be hearing about a fire.

What is probably happening with these trickle charge kernels is:

The phone is going to use some power at all times, the trickle charge is probably just enough to keep the phone running and preventing the battery from draining slowly.

This works because there are two ways to handle full charge status while the charger is still connected.

1) When the battery reaches full charge, the battery is isolated from the device preventing the device from draining the battery. The device then runs solely off the power coming in from the charger. (this method would not benefit from trickle charging, and forcing the battery to continue charging will at best slowly hurt the battery over time, and at worst cause a fire/explosion)

2) When the battery reaches full charge, the charger is isolated from the device. The device runs off the battery until the charge drops to a certain level (usually around 90% or so) before charging starts again.

The second way is how the Rezound does it, and most other devices as well.

The first way requires the ability to switch instantly to the battery from external power without any drop in voltage. This is difficult to do, as a drop in voltage could cause the device to crash/freeze, so many devices do not use this method.
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
Well if the device was off then the kernel wouldn't be running and trickle charging the battery but when turned on and the battery fully charged they would very slowly charge the battery as it dies. So there should be no risk of the battery catching fire. And anyway, the way the evo trickle charges worked is they would charge your battery to a certain voltage. Once it hit that voltage it would stop charging until it dropped. So it wouldn't be hard to protect the battery.

Did this for 6 months on the evo with no issues.

ok, so i have ACS and CWM installed on my phone, along with the impaled keyboard patch to correct the lagging typing. With that said, I try repeatedly to download and install the EL30 update from the sdcard, and it begins to install, then aborts and says failed. Has anyone experienced this and what am i doing wrong???
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjben:
You are trying to install a system update while on a custom rom. That IS what you are doing wrong.

Just let it fail and you will be good to go. Without EL30.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mookiemoo:
well that is the thing, the only thing i have done is unlocked my phone. I have the stock ROM still installed.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monke30butt:
The OTA will not install if you are rooted.

You will have to Odin back to stock if you really want the OTA.

I'm waiting for the Dev's to get the ROMs out before I change.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikon120:
But you're rooted. That means you aren't on the stock kernel and might have had the Asphalt game removed to conserve space on /system.

You would have been able to find out why you couldn't update with some initiative on searching and reading threads here prior to posting. There's tons of these threads in pages 1-3 on both Q&A and General sub forums.

Research a bit more, then upgrade to CWM v5 and flash an EL30 based rom. There are stock-like roms available so you don't have to lose your comfort level of look & feel.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mookiemoo:
ok, nikon, thankyou, but i did search around. hence, why i finally posted a thread. threads are free and probably answer a great number of peoples questions who are afraid to ask questions for fear of feeling stupid. i am an airline pilot, so i am not stupid, but not as educated on rooting phones as most of you all are. Thanks though. so, are you saying that while my phone is unlocked, i will not be able to install EL30? i wanted to fix the speaker phone feedback issue that was to be addressed in this patch..
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikon120:
Correct, you will not be able to install the stock OTA update while being rooted. However, there is an easy solution to your problem. What you're looking for is probably this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1461377

I'd still recommend you make sure you're on CWM v5.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1357655

For your "get back on 100% stock" purposes, here are Odin and Heimdall packages that Toadlife made for EL30. These are not the official .tar files, but this is close enough for right now. The files here will not flash the EL30 modem, that is currently a manual flash.

Alright. My mistake. I took "ACS and CWM" to to mean that you were using an ACS rom. But it still seems that your problem is the same.

so I log in to check my bill at sprint.com, wanted to browse as i am looking for another phone to play with.. LOl

it's been a year, got my deposit back! wahoot!

seeing a little credit in there is nice, I have to say form all the stories i have heard about sprint being on these boards for almost a year, I have had a pleasurable experience with them, the financing department is first class, had some billing issues with them and they were as pleasant as can be. I do feel their service can be better in their stores, as My trusty evo's charging port let go back in november, and i had some rough spots tryin to get sprint to help me, so i went to htc and they resolved my issue no problems, so in a nutshell i am a happy customer!

now, do i want a design4g, epic4g touch, or photon4g? LOL
[EVO 4G General] alaman68:
Totally agree with you. I have had a very pleasant experience with Sprint as well. Had a couple small billing issues that were fixed very quickly and drop less calls now than with Verizon. I used Verizon for 9 years but the cost was getting out of control. So far over the last 20 months, I have saved $2256 by switching. Total win
[EVO 4G General] Charleshrg20:
Sprint is great for the price. Just wait til network vision rolls out and coverage increases.
[EVO 4G General] ben.nesheim:
hah +1 for sprint gotta admit cept i just moved and i have ZERO coverage :(

note its northern wisconsin so i shouldnt expect to much i wish my evo had a unlocked sim slot i'd just grab a voice plan from att (closest tower is across the bay and its att of course)
[EVO 4G General] rocket999:
I have been itching for the epic touch 4g....
[EVO 4G General] kingdavidbaker:
Grats! I remember when I got my deposit back...was stoked to have 2 free months of service basically. As far as upgrading your phone I would hold off on that. I just recently purchased the EVO 4G because I really wasn't too impressed with the newer phones. Granted they are better than the EVO but just slightly which to me isn't worth either the upgrade credit or the extra cash. Wait for some more ICS phones and then upgrade....i'm betting Samsung and HTC will come out with something great.
[EVO 4G General] JDM Civic EG8:
Which part of northern Wisconsin? I use to live in a small town(Miladore) twenty minutes north of Stevens Point.

[EVO 4G General] imheroldman:
Brad, I would wait until MWC. I am having the same debate, I am going to wait for my 2 years to officially upgrade but if I get the chance to try a different handset I will. My wife needs a replacement EVO but I am kind of hoping they wont have one and we will have to get something else... we will see. But HTC is going to be launching something BIG this year!
[EVO 4G General] tropicalbrit:
I'm waiting it out too. Galaxy Nexus, sure it has LTE but it is last year's technology. I have very high hopes for MWC and shall be revealed there.

Out of Design, Photon, or Epic Touch?

Design has basically no development community. Smaller screen, and single core just doesn't cut it for me.

Photon has Motoblur and it is a worldphone, if you're into that kind of thing. It has a small but quality development community, jokersax has put out some good stuff for them. Unlocking the bootloader borks 4G. You can relock to fix 4G, and you can't relock with custom kernels.

Epic Touch used to have Loss of Signal, which was an absolute pain. It is pretty much gone now. Took a while to get AOSP on it, but they have accomplished. They have the strongest development community out of the three. I think it is BML but I'm not sure. If it is, hopefully they will be able to convert it to MTD sometime in the near future.

OR wait :D
[EVO 4G General] ben.nesheim:
i can never wait for my upgrade :P i have about 4 months til my contract is up ... sadly i maybe switching to the evil empire (at&t) :/
[EVO 4G General] brad560:
thanks guys! think im gonna wait, love my evo to death, and i just got a kindle fire so i got a new device to hold me over haha!

you guys are the best
[EVO 4G General] kingdavidbaker:

[EVO 4G General] wc_outlaw:
Have you considered calling them and letting them know that you have no service at your house. I was having the same problem as I live in a small town in southern california and they sent me a free airave. Granted its not the best solution in the world but it will provide you with coverage in your home as long as you have high speed internet.
[EVO 4G General] MFOsaka:
I've had a few minor ups and down with Sprint as far as billing went, but next to nil issues with repairs or phone service. I wish it was my first year again. I've been with Sprint for close to a decade now.

As far as a new phone goes, I'm with one of the previous posters. There's yet to been a phone released that has made me want to make the switch. Especially due to many of the awesome ROMS that been developed for our phones in the past year or so. In some cases, it's literally like having a new phone every few months. lol

I've been with Sprint since '99... And I've definitely had my ups and downs.

But I'm really hoping to see some quad core hotness released in the next few months...
[HTC EVO 3D] :
..... . .. . . .... . .
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
Simple answer: Probably not but depends

Longer answer: The main factor I forsee is how to gain root access. Given the locked bootloader on this device, the process has been much more complex. Which version of he bootloader do you have? Does revolutionary work or is the only option HTC's unlock method?

The answer to these two questions will probably determine your fake. Either way, for the most part, having gained root access on the device and still running a stock ROM, will more than likely guarantee there are no tower/carrier issues.

Generally, with most custom ROMs, there should also be no carrier/tower issues but unless the ROM has been tested to work in Japan on those networks, there is no guarantee.

The only big conflict I would imagine would be taking a rooted device into the carrier for service. Probably best at this point to reload stock software and remove root access in order to ensure the device the hardware is using completely stock software and thus eliminate any odd issues from custom "unofficial" software.

As a side note, if you're read this far through my message, if the htc unlock process is the only option, my app, Flash Image GUI, works very well in helping flash kernels due to the HTC unlock limitation of not allowing kernel write access while in standard recovery mode. Have a few guides in the OP to my Flash Image GUI thread.

Hope that helps! Good luck!
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I have the 1.5 bootloader and I just read all about the difficulties with it.

Thanks so much for the reply by the way

So your saying to do the HTC dev method to unlock to flash roms and then use your program to flash different kernel's?

I do for now want and kinda need the Japanese rom

So ill keep this rom if I use the HTC way?
[HTC EVO 3D] dastin1015:
Yes he is. You can change the ROM even if you use the HTC unlock method. Some things may not work properly if you flash the ROMs on here because of conflicting files. I learned that when I ported the Japanese Evo 3D ROM to the Sprint version of the 3D. You will have to flash custom ROMs based off the Japanese HTC stock ROM
