yes, you must unlock your bootloader... and root your phone (via installing amonRA recovery is easiest)

then you are ready to s-off.

I was stock GB phone, I unlocked/rooted and s-off'd it didn't take long at all.

yes you'll have to re-set up some things on your phone, but that's ok, you'll be fresh! All my important stuff is sync'd with google so I'm pretty rapid at wiping and starting from scratch. The benefits after doing this will far outdo any inconvenience of setting your phone up again. You can run a nandroid backup after you flash amonRA before doing s-off as well if you want, but the unlock procedure does give you a wipe unfortunately :-\ use Titanium Backup for your apps if you want to keep specific data about them, otherwise just re-install after you get setup again.

s-offing with a stock GingerBread phone is easy and fast.
[HTC Rezound] derek4484:
Isnt the S-OFF method more hardware related than software related. That's why they tested it on all the S3 phones? Plus, I dont see VZW worrying about the few hundred of us that actually did S-OFF. We're such a small portion of overall users. I would think they would hold it back over greed rather than hardware exploits. Such as Droid Inc 4G is about to drop with ICS and Sense 4. They'd rather people buy that than this phone.
[HTC Rezound] brando56894:
It's both hardware and software dependent IIRC
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
This. But I think the exploit is both hardware and software, so theoretically they could patch the software side, if they cared enough to.
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
For new users, just my advice, worrying about this is pointless, it's kinda like us making threads that say next summer gas will be $7 a gallon (or $6 liter) and you keep yourself awake at night worrying about the "what ifs".
[HTC Rezound] dg4prez:
i assumed you already had an unlocked bootloader. you very much need to have one of these. in which case, yes, you will get factory reset.
[HTC Rezound] rezin:
so i just cloned and murdered all these dinosaurs for nothing?!?!
[HTC Rezound] putney1477:
ok so I leave my phone unlocked and rooted, put the file on a spare sd card. follow the instructions, install jbear hboot (whats the benefit to this as opposed to regular hboot), flash amon ra, and it will boot into whatever rom I was running?

then I can restore a nandroid?
[HTC Rezound] spitzaf:
Jbear hboot allows for more commands (i.e. fastboot flash recovery) than the regular hboot when you are S-Off. With a regular hboot, you need to unlock to use fastboot flash recovery.

However, if you stay on regular hboot S-Off locked, you can still flash recovery with a PH98IMG.zip.
[HTC One X] FatblokeUK:
I'm using my One X on Activesync which forces you to encrypt the phone's disk. I then have to enter my pin to unencrypt the disk whenever the phone is restarted.

My question is whether the one-click root methods mentioned in the Developer's forums will work on a phone with an encrypted disk (especially if the process required multiple boots of the phone).

Anyone have any idea?
[HTC One X] spvdeng:
Go to config.

go to disk options

switch off encrypyion of your disk

root the device

switch encryption back on.

Before you do this backup your data to your pc and restore after encypted again.

Your activesync mail is temporay not available untill encryptio is switched on again

[HTC One X] EddyOS:
If your phone is off then Windows won't see it. Just install HTC Sync (so you get the drivers - you can uninstall HTC Sync afterwards if you're not going to use it) then plug the phone in when booted into Android. Repeat process when in FASTBOOT to get Windows to see the phone in FASTBOOT mode as well

Simples!
[HTC One X] rajitsingh:
That is the thing -- IT DOES SEE IT! Try it yourself.

I didn't think it would but Jotha told me that it would. I tried it and it worked. I was surprised.
[HTC One X] broncogr:
Yes device is seen through adb when off.

This is because as soon as you plug the USB cable, offmode comes up with charging and ADB support

Offmode is embeded in the recovery partition

:)

PS: This needs latest clockworkmod recovery to work...
[HTC One X] ToddeSwe:
Latest ADB?

Hi!

When i was restoring my Sensation to S-ON i noticed that ADB was complaining about version out of date something....

Where can i get the latest version of ADB for using with my One X when i've decided if i should wait or use hTC bootunlocker... :)
[HTC One X] D0GuKaN:
Is there a way for Linux?
[HTC One X] ZeDestructor:
Android SDK straight from Google should take care of that.
[HTC One X] DoeBoi:
Also, use HTC USB cables, sometimes using non-standard USB cables can make searching for devices impossible.
[HTC One X] ZeDestructor:
No. As long as the cable is properly USB 2.0 compliant, it WILL work, otherwise HTC CANNOT certify against USB 2.0. Tried with proper Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Samsung and Google cables.
[HTC One X] tashunke:
that doesn't work for me.

I tried everything, adb only recognizes my phone when its ON.
[HTC One X] eyosen:
See here a few posts back:

You have to have the latest clockworkmod recovery.
[HTC One X] tashunke:
Can you help/guide me on how to install it ?

Sorry for being a dummy.
[HTC One X] RaVe-N:
Is there any way with an adb command that we can tell what bootmode the phone is in?

I.E: hotboot or fastboot mode?

Using adb get-state they both return "unknown"?

Cheers...
[HTC One X] rilorolo:
Huh? It's OFF. My guess would be that it's not in any BOOT mode. :p
[HTC One X] RaVe-N:
Never mind... I found the androidlib.DLL (I think that's wrong, but its a .net DLL available here on xda) and that manages to return fast boot so I can tell programatically what state it's in...

.

Please - anyone have any advice as to what could be stopping me from using adb ( from my phone to my PC ) ?

I been working on this for a couple days now, and gotten nowhere. Any thoughts at all ???

Thanks

============================

.

I have been trying to get adb working on my Win10 machine for a long time and just can not figure out what is wrong.

I have adb installed in c:\adb and my USB drivers are working. I can browse the phone from the PC.

But no matter what I try when I try to adb, I get this:

.

(Yes I do have USB debugging ON and OEM ON)

It is weird because it says daemon is nOT running then it tries to start

it and says daemon started Successfully ... then it says daemon still

nOT running. That makes no sense to me ?

Please any thoughts on this ???

Thanks

.

[HTC One X] thePhoenixMint:
I can understand the difficulty. This problem is pretty common because there are no official drivers for Win10. These drivers work best on XP. I also could not get the adb to work on my Win10 so I installed Ubuntu and rooting/installing ROM's from ubuntu is a breeze.. srry for not hvng a solution for this.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tjsimmons:
Now that we have root, what's everyone's favorite root apps and things to do with root?

I don't do much with root myself, but I do use Titanium Backup and SetCPU.

What do you guys use?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dimgl:
I'm using SetCPU but I'm trying to determine whether the clock speeds actually change on the stock kernel. Seems to be working for me, can anyone confirm?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] craig0r:
We almost definitely cannot overclock with the default kernel. At least that's how all devices have operated in the past. I doubt HTC would ever include that function on the kernel, as it can damage devices.

Underclocking might work though, and I'm pretty sure changing the governor would work.

To test it, run some CPU benchmarks while using various settings. If it's working, you should see a noticeable difference in your results.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dimgl:
I will do this now.

Not planning on overclocking at all! I never overclock phones, only underclock to improve battery life. I'm using the 'powersave' governor but it doesn't seem to be functioning correctly. Will post screens soon.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fugugaipan:
In my run to restock my Tab after trying CM9 on MTD so that I could do a full wipe and reset to see if I could clear up the problem I had with the unit not going to sleep I ran into an issue.

I screwed up the the reflash with Overcome, which ended up with a probably partial formatting to EXT4 on the /system partition.

Currently I can get to download mode and boot into recovery and it will respond to ADB commands and Odin says it's flashing when I try to send it images. I've attempted to reflash Overcome from scratch and see if it would format the /system partition but it still just hangs on the boot screen.

In Recovery I can't mount /system or /cache.

Is there a way to format the partitions in this state so I flash the ROM and Kernel?

Have you tried restock to gb stock safe v5 with pit selected?

[HTC One X] dlau77:
Hey guys,

I'm with Vodafone UK (notorious for their bad signal coverage) but this morning when I woke up, my HOX has had absolutely no signal.

I've tried everything I can think of to resolve the issues, standard restart, hard restart, removing the sim card etc. but to no avail.

I also wondered if it was maybe Vodafone having a bad day too and asked my friends who are also with them, if they had any signal. They all have full signal.

Then i checked the settings on my device, phone identity.

For some reason, the IMEI, IMEI SV, IMSI and phone number are now all unknown. I'm not really sure what this means, but I know they normally have something underneath them.

This has led me to believe its an issue with my sim card/contract whatever... maybe I haven't paid my contract so Vodafone cut me off, went online and checked. Everything has been paid for.

Got any suggestions as to whats wrong and how I can resolve this please?
[HTC One X] Crank2012:
Hi,

I had a similar problem (also on Vodafone, but it may just be coincidental). I had no signal for a couple of days and thought it was due to a screw up during my number porting from O2.

Anyway, after 2 days of calling customer services and having my SIM swapped twice I went into the store and they replaced my phone. It's fine now.
[HTC One X] shankly1985:
Funny enough I also woke up to phone having zero signal, but am with o2. After 1min or even less signal came back.
[HTC One X] dlau77:
just got off the phone to the Vodafone people.

After trying my sim card in my friends Vodafone HOX (black), I got signal. This has led me to believe its a hardware issue, but despite this the phonerep still insisted it might be a software issue (I have the latest OTA update, same as my friend and his is fine? NB: his device doesnt have the flicker issue unlike mine).

Will have to visit the local store to have the shop monkey tell me the dreaded, "we'll have to send it away for repair" probably. If this is the case, the phonerep said I would probably have to pay for any repairs/new handset as I dont have insurance. Is that fair because I'm still well within warranty..?
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
Sounds about right, if you within your 28 days you can ask for a replacement. As per rules. Even HTC say to replace. Anything after 28 days needs to be sent to HTC for repair. You shouldn't have to pay for any repairs it should be covered under warranty. They can refuse or charge if you have tampered with it, as in did the HTC unlock and installed a custom rom.

See what the shop says, if HTC do charge then kick up a big fuss.

No issues with my vodafone sim in mine, however had terrible issues with GG, kept losing sim card I assumed it was a faulty sim card causing the issues.
[HTC One X] WraithPriest:
Hey there, my girlfriend is on Vodafone with an iPhone 4S, she lost her signal yesterday morning and still hasn't had it back bar a five minute window this afternoon. she lives near a place called Devizes (its in Wiltshire) but her mum had it back from last night, I don't know anyone else on Vodafone so I don't know how far it has spread.

Edited to add: you can check for reported signal/mast issues here (http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/t5/Faults-Board/bd-p/69) the bit on the right of the first set of numbers in the thread title is the start of the postcode for the area the mast is based.
[HTC One X] dlau77:
Think I'm a few days past the 28 days, just my luck! And I haven't done anything to the phone whatsoever, everything is stock.

More evidence that something's gone wrong... After leaving it on charge all night (as per), the battery has dropped from 100% to 14% in the space of 4 hours with just some casual wifi usage. It's also extremely quick to heat up now, and thats just from leaving it on charge.

If they make me pay for a blatant hardware issue I will kick up a massive fuss. Why should I pay to have the manufacturer fix a phone that has clearly been made to an unsatisfactory level?

[HTC Rezound] diaco1974:
Just wondering if the dev's have to manually setup the phone after installing a new Rom that requires a full wipe/restore. It's not a big deal if you update your Rom every so often. But, I would imagine that it would be a pain if your factory resetting daily or multiple times daily.

I don't reset all that often. However, it seems like when I want a new Rom I first need to install a 3rd Rom first before the new Rom will take. Not sure if It's required but I will go through setup and let all of the data restore on the phone. Frequently, I'll need access to the market before I can go on to the next Rom.

After doing this a few times it just seems like there has to be an easier way.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
You should just wipe, install the new rom, log into your google account to let your data recover and use the market to reinstall your apps. Not sure why you need to install a rom twice...
[HTC Rezound] snowride20:
I have been using titanium backup for a while now though the developers will not offer support if you do. I only backup apps and their data. The only thing google does is add all my contacts back. I do not backup any system apps or system data and have not had any issues to date. My new Rom is literally back up and running less then 5 minutes after first boot. It takes longer to wipe and flash then it does to setup a Rom.

sent from my Clean Rezound
[HTC Rezound] sknight13602:
Dev just push new system apps to the phone with adb or whatever has been changed then reboot. At least I do but for your case when switching to a new Rom you shouldn't just be pushing system cus alot changes
[HTC Rezound] thatsricci:
titanium backup, ftw

-.|.- Rezound, ics
[HTC Rezound] diaco1974:
So can I use a titanium backup to restore app data after flashing to a new rom? Would it restore my saved saved logins from the browser?
[HTC Rezound] mjh68:
Not sure about the browser, but yes restoring app data with Titanium backup works great. Just don't restore system apps . Well, I am assuming if you deleted the new browser and restore your saved browser it would work just fine. Unless the browser is a different for the rom your using.
