Yallo.

Just out of curiosity, what are the symptoms of the intermittent data issues? Guessing they're drop-offs/hangs? I'm currently HTC unlocked S-ON and running cm9 a5 and haven't noticed any (I think). I live less than a mile away from an airport (relevant?) and in an area of town where TMo coverage leaves a lot to be desired yet data seems to work fine for me other than the random drops to 3G or EDGE. I experienced this with my MT3G 1.2 running various ROMs with radio-2.22.28.25 the in the past so I never gave it a second guess, also S-ON btw. When venturing into the more "affluent" areas of town though, data speeds are absolutely awesome and H is all I see near the signal meter, same with the old phone.

Soooo, now that I've rambled and almost forgot the point I was attempting, I mean it IS awesome and all, but if data is working is there any real benefit to this method of achieving S-OFF considering everything works for me? Now that I'm actually asking I feel the answer is glaring right at my face. :banghead:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jjbz:
I had the intermittent data issue on CM9 Alpha 5&6 and MikMIUI. On other ROMs (both ICS and GB), data works fine.

When you get the intermittent data issue, data stops working for a random period of time and the "H" symbol appears and disappears every few seconds. Wifi still works, but mobile data is basically broken.

After doing JB S-OFF, I stopped experiencing the intermittent data issue. I thought JB S-OFF fixed the issue. However, the issue came back after a month.

The main advantages of JB S-OFF is not having to flash the boot.img for ICS ROMs and true radio S-OFF for flashing different radios and kernels. More details here and here.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] the.hagop:
Thanks for the response. Maybe I'll eventually build up the courage to give it a shot, but I think for now I'll just leave it alone simply because it works well enough for me. It seems most who have tried have been successful other than the few posts I've seen that left the impression that something went seriously wrong.

I've always practiced the 90% research, 10% work so maybe I'll just be patient and wait to see if another possible/less risky route comes along. Not assuming there will be, but at the same time, waiting was what saved me from the pain in the neck that was the "gold card" method for the mt3g. Universal Androot came along and made the process ridiculously easy.

Apologies for the long post.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] beano311:
So I loaded the 1.28 img through hboot and it reverted to stock, but I still get S-OFF in my hboot header (it doesn't say Revolutionary anymore though). I tried to follow your guide and when you get to the HTCDev part, it doesn't work. I get

INFO[ERR] Command error !!!

when I try to

fastboot oem get_identifier_token

... I looked into that and it appears that that command is missing in the hboot I'm on, 1.44.0007. Even though it had said S-OFF in the header, I could't flash a custom recovery or root. I tried factory resets and going back to S-ON, same error. I'd would try flashing another HBOOT, but all the links in Blue's post about HBOOT are broken (looks like his goo account is gone or something). I even tried re-Revolutionary S-OFFing, but JB sees it as already S-OFF and quits. Any ideas?

Edit: okay, I went back to rev-s-off. After I did that I figured I might as well try pulling the hboot from the 1.63 PG59IMG and fastboot hboot it. So now get_identifier_token works, but unlocking with fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin still doesn't seem to work at all (it looks like it works in the command prompt window, but nothing ever happens on the phone). On my bootloader screen I have

*** LOCKED ***
DOUBLESHOT PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.45.0013

But JB won't work because I'm S-OFF again, so how do I do this? I can't flash 1.63 before doing JB S-OFF, and I can't unlock the bootloader with HTC dev without the hboot from 1.63, which I can't flash without S-OFF or installing the whole 1.63 radio package. Am missing something/I doing something completely wrong?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] bit1:
son of a.. this was tough but finally got it to work. had no speaker so i used some speaker wire braided into a thin braid. took forever but it worked after twenty minutes or so. I did it barebones no insulation in case your wondering. Pretty sure I have some sort of Soff disease now.. lol
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jjbz:
If you're Rev S-OFF now, you need to go back to stock AND S-ON before doing HTCDev.

At this point, use the PG59IMG.zip to go back to stock 1.28. I know you've done this before and it didn't change the hboot, but that's because you need to 'fastboot oem writesecureflag 3'. To do so, FOLLOW BLUE'S POST HERE. Make sure to do everything he says.... In the post:

-start at: "This is very important to do. The factory reset after the flash is mandatory and must include the sdcard"

-end at: "STOP HERE IF JUST FOR HTC SERVICE."

After doing this, you'll be S-ON and stock ROM. HTCDev and everything else should work fine after this.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] beano311:
I will try it again, but I have been doing writesecureflag 3 to get S-ON as well. After I S-ON and the boot loader shows " *** LOCKED *** ", HTCDev doesn't seem to work to unlock the bootloader.

Also, should 1.28 have the 1.45.0013 hboot? Blue does specifically note that 1.44.0007 (the hboot I'm getting) doesn't support the flashboot oem command required for HTCDev. At the bottom of this post he has:

Thanks again for the help, even if I can't seem to get it working that easily, I do really appreciate it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
I did blues full instructions ( even after he said to stop if it was only for HTC repair ) to go from the rev s-off hboot to stock then did the ota to 1.63.xx so I had the new hboot and radio then I HTC dev unlocked, rooted then did the wire trick. It was a couple hour process to go from rev s-off to JB s-off but I felt it was the right thing to do as to not cut corners and cause issues.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] beano311:
Instead of doing all that you could have just installed 1.63 straight off the bat without having to deal with all the reboots, flashes, and downloads for the OTA updates. I finally got JB to work by simply flashing 1.55.531.3 instead of 1.28 or just the 1.45.0013 hboot. HTCDev unlock worked, flashed CWM6, flashed SU, rebooted and ran JB, after three times at the wire trick I finally got it... using the video for timing helped a lot :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jjbz:
Nice, I'm glad you got it to work. So HTCDev Unlock doesn't work on 1.44.0007 hboot. It only works on 1.45.0013 hboot.

For some reason, I thought I had done HTCDev Unlock before on 1.44.0007 hboot with another Doubleshot. I guess it was actually on 1.45.0013. My mistake.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
I could have, but in my last post did you see it was my choice?there have been so many bricked doubleshots that I just didn't want to risk it. Plus I did it as a test for when I reflash Sense 4 because on that ROM I have an x for signal bars :beer:

[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Hello, This post is intended for users where the following list of conditions below are true, although I'm obviously more than happy for any others to put in any input....

You own a Desire S

You live in the UK

You have a SKY TV subscription (or the house you live in does)

You have a SKY ID user login and have registered your device to access SKY Go

You have installed the SKY GO applicaton

Your device is rooted

You are running a GB based ROM (ie not ICS)

SKY have written then application so that it won't work on rooted devices, even though some people on other devices have managed to bypass this. Some users have had success in using the application OTA RootKeeper which backs up and then hides a devices root (su) - which out of interest will permit rooted users from successfully using Google Play (aka The market) for downloading and watching movies. :p

No matter what I do now, use the hide root (su) app which works fine, clear the data from SKY Go, de-install it and then re-install the app, when I put in my SKY ID credential I always get the following erorr "PIN Error You have entered an incorrect PIN" (see attachment for screen shot) even though there is no PIN to enter as part of the setup (its not related to my SKY box PIN as that is working fine and I've configured SKY Go to not require any age restrictions)

I would really love to resolve this as want to be able to watch Football from my wonderful device when I'm away from home, and I can't even consider returning my phone to stock in case anyone suggests that. :(:confused:

This application annoyingly hasn't yet been updated by SKY to function on any ICS ROMs.:eek:

This is the official link to the SKY Go App thread but is is multi device and therefore in excess of 50 pages with greater than 1500 posts mostly of people saying doesn't work on my device...so I thought I would trap up my local resources (eg you).

[APP] Sky Go for Android (UK ONLY)

As always many thanks to anyone that's even read this far :D, let alone who bothers to add anything....Cheers ;)
[HTC Desire S] SimonTS:
Much as I'd love to help you mate, I'm kinda stuck. It turns out that you can only use Sky Go if you re a direct Sky customer - no use to me as I subscribe through my Virgin Media package. Bit peed-off at that discovery to be fair.

The app fires up OK on my Desire, but I obviously can't sign in. I'm going to chat to a mate of mine about 'borrowing' his Sky details so I can test it on my phone and I'll let you know if I get anywhere with it.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
That would be much appreciated. When I first downloaded the Sky Go app I was able to log into it ok, but I was unable to access the channels through it (as the device was rooted).

At that point I had an entry in the Settings-> Accounts & Sync for Sky Go

If I now attempt to add the sky go account through settings add account, when logging in with the correct credentials (that work on the sky website) I also get the same PIN error as shown in the attached screen shot on post #1

it seems that since I've un-installing and re-installing the app (or it may have been auto	updated by the market) I can't seem to get that account back as I get the PIN error on entering my sky credentials now, even though previously they went into the app without any issues.

Let me know if you get hold of your mates SKY details and that would assist greatly, this may be a non-starter but would appreciate at least one other person trying!

Thanks

Hello Ben, I can confirm it works fine on our iPad (non-jailbreak) and computer.

I'm yet to try it on my rooted Desire S. When I get home later, ill try and give it a go and report back!
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Errhhgg!! bloody iBollox, unfortunately I know it works on that pile of ####...thanks all the same though. :(:confused::mad:

For some stupid reason SKY have had an iPhone application for years and have only just realised that the majority of the world actually uses Android so have finally released a poor quality Android based application (which doesn't even work on ICS showing their real level of commitment and the degree in which they're taking Android seriously!)

My selfish prime concern - is all about rooted GB though, much appreciated that you're willing to try to give it a go though....Much Thanks :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Ok, sorry for the late reply!

Believe me, it wasn't my choice on the iPad :p

I'm already frustrated with the lack of homescreen customization on it! And lack of utility apps (widgets, shortcuts etc)

Ok, didn't get a chance to try it on the Sky Go app, I can't find the bloody ID stuff, so instead I downloaded Google Movies.

This app requires you to NOT be rooted.

I ran the app first, and it came up saying I couldn't use it, as I was rooted...

Then I ran the app you said, and 'disabled' root. Then I ran Google movies, and it is working now! It's detected my device as unrooted! I didn't even reboot after 'disabling' or close the Movie app!

So, the app definetly works... But I couldn't test it on Sky GO, only Google Movies. But the sane theory should apply right? Maybe you could try it on Google movies? Then we can See whether it May just be sky Go not detecting.

Hope that is of some help!

(Running Endymion) :)
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Some screenshots if it helps!

1) I first ran play movies app

2) I used the app to 'unroot/disable root' the device

3) I ran Google play movies, and it worked!
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Appreciate the effort Oly,

Unfortunately I'd already tried the un rooting and google market

Was just the sky id and sky go bit that I needed verifying

From home using your sky box which will show your viewing card number and other details that along with some personal stuff like name and address should enable you to get a sky id setup

In order to test sky go or no go as it's been for me

No hurry, thanks all the same

Fortunately my wife has an un rooted DS so I can use her phone if I need, but you know how it is, I want it to work on mine

[HTC Desire S] bam82:
I don't get the pin error so can't help with that.

I can open the app and view channels but they just buffer at 0% forever. With the exception of sky new which restarts the app.

I tried flashing a pre rooted stock rom and hiding root using voodoo and I was able to watch sky news but premium channels still didn't work. From reading the thread in the android application and games folder it looks like you need to edit the default.prop within the kernel as well as hide root.

I don't have a clue how to do this but I'm going to give it a go when I get time later! Hopefully we can get it working I'm surprised more people aren't working on this as it has the potential to be one of the best android apps out there

[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Well that's well worth it, brilliant work.....THANKS :D

If only I hadn't recently deleted my old backup of that ROM, I suspect one may still be on my PC :)

I wonder how it checks to see if we're on stock? Did you see if it works on stock sense v3.0?

Is it worth editing the build.prop file and replacing values, in an attempt to fool it further? without having to switch bases?

When I get an opportunity (probably the weekend) I'll try that.

Just hide root BEFORE you install the sky go app and it should work fine.

[Kindle Fire General] Kafluke:
I was one of those sorry suckers that somehow got my Kindle Fire stuck in TWRP and I couldn't reset the bootmode to normal. ADB wouldn't recognize the Kindle while it was in TWRP no matter what I tried. Here's how I got it booting again.

1. Download Kindle Fire Utility here.

2. Unzip and open a command prompt in the "tools" folder inside of the unzipped kindle fire utility folder. Do this in Windows 7 by double clicking on the KFU folder and then doubleclick on the tools folder. Next find an empty space in the folder and hold down "shift" on your keyboard and then click your right mouse button. Select "Open command window here".

3. Type in this command and hit enter:

fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000

When that properly executes it will say < waiting for device >

4. On the Kindle Fire inside of TWRP select Reboot -> System.

5. During the reboot process the fastboot command will execute and set you back to normal mode. Now type this in your command window on your computer and hit enter:

fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot

That ought to do it for ya.

*edit* Wish I could change the title somehow. I misspelled "recognize"
[Kindle Fire General] tremeree:
Thank you!!! it worked perfectly. I think this happened because once in the ICS rom I select to reboot into recovery using Room Manager and got stuck on it (bootmode 5001). Anyway this solved the problem in a blink!

If you feel like you're motivated, let's try to reach a critical mass with signs on this petition!

Please, if you feel inclined, don't hesitate to share this on twitter, gplus or facebook, where ever you feel it's appropriate. Don't forget to put @htc in your tweet if you link the petition, or +htc in google plus. :)

Well, removing the gallery app is actually quite simple. What makes it seem complicated is that it isn't an app on its own. It's a function of the stock camera. So uninstall the camera and the gallery goes as well!
