do the wiretrick for s off, PINK paperclips work the best for some odd reason

and you must have misunderstood i think this tool is on the news is because of me and possibly a few others pressed that button, if you need help with S-Off and other issues feel free to PM me as i have done over 50 Amaze S OFF ROOT processes =) cheers
[Android Software Development] wlmeng11:
Probably not.

The newer devices block a lot of older exploits.

[Android Software Development] lyriquidperfection:
I understand but this is primarily a rooting app. Nothing else. If someone has the ability to unlock their bootloader and flash an insecure boot image then this app will root your device.

I may consider removing the option to flash the hboot after rooting as this relies on flashing an emmc block device which I forgot to consider that not all HTC devices have.

[Android Software Development] 18th.abn:
No, if you try to downgrade firmware(need supercid) with ruu, both firmwares still must have identical hboot versions. At&t One XL, you cannot downgrade hboot versions period. No flash, no ruu.

With root access, dding will typically seem successful with a XXX+0 in XXX+0 out. Bottom line is its either signed or write protected, so nothing actually writes at all:/

Would be GREAT, but not happening

Most HTC devices I've seen, hboot absolutely has a partition. Always either signed, or write protected partition. When devices soft brick, recognized as qshusb_dload mode, in a lot of cases we can unbrick them simply by flashing a new hboot to them in a brief, 3-4 second window when emmc_wp is disabled (emmc mode)

HTC Desire C / Error: Make sure you have flashed an Insecure 'Boot.img" what does it mean???
[Android Software Development] lyriquidperfection:
You need to unlock your bootloader and flash an insecure boot.img which basically has ro.secure set to '0' in the default.prop file.
[Android Software Development] lyriquidperfection:
Yes because you need to flash insecure boot.img on your device.

Hello,

I'm facing this error on the image attached.

My device is HTC Sensation XL GSM, Ice Cream v4.0.3, S-ON and it was rooted but i faced problems with it so i unrooted and relocked it.

Currently i'm using the official ROM.

Please advise me how to proceed with rooting my device again.
[Android Software Development] no.human.being:
Yes, the Radio and HBOOT see it as a "partition" (e. g. you can do "fastboot flash hboot ..." if you're S-OFF), but Android does not. At least that's the case on the Wildfire S and on the Aria, but I'm pretty sure it's the case on all NAND devices. The devices that use eMMC memory MAY be different, I don't know about them, but A LOT of HTC devices still use NAND and not eMMC, so claiming this is a "universal method for HTC devices" is very misleading. That's all I wanted to say.
[Android Software Development] tominetti:
Hello, where i can find boot.img and HBoot for sensation xe?
[Android Software Development] lyriquidperfection:
As long as your device is S-OFF, you can flash an insecure boot image which allows root shell to perm root the device. Don't see that as misleading to be honest.

I am trying this method with an old HTC G2 running 2.3.4, however it is stuck at the main screen and says "waiting for device" and "please wait while your device connects with the ADB server" followed by "Device Not Connected!".

How to root/downgrade
[Android Software Development] downwiththebanksters:
I was wondering if anyone replied to this. My wife's BRAND NEW WIldfire s is out of memory and won't install google maps updates with only Swype and an office suite installed. It was bought in Taiwan and so has a bunch of chinese bloatware I'd like to uninstall (KKbox, ebuddy, and HAMI apps) to free up a bit of space. The above question makes me wonder if I will encounter the same problem of not enough memory if I try this exploit.

It is:

Marvel PVT ship S-on rl

HBOOT 1.09.0099

microp-0451

radio 7.57.39.10m

Feb 08 2012 18:29:31

I'd just like to get root temporarily so I can delete some of the crapware somehow. I'm not wondering reading various posts here if any of the deletions I make under a temp root regime will be permanent, or if on reboot all the crapware comes back?

So 2 questions:

1.Will this exploit work on a WIldfire S with nearly full memory, or should I delete some stuff first?

2.Am I wasting my time, as short of a complete new ROM flash, the device will restore itself to factory, including bloatware, at each reboot?

I'm glad my Sammy is a hella lot easier than this...HTC is just shooting itself in the foot lately, they've essentially missed 2 cycles with foolishness like this, and no SD on the ONE X. I and a friend wanted a ONE X for the screen, but no SD killed it for him and me. If I'd known about this I would have said no way too.

I say this not to troll, but so the HTC folks, who I'm sure watch here, get the message...their company just isn't executing at the level it needs to to compete in this viciously competitive marketplace. Sony is doing AOSP, who knows what Googorolla's next move is, but I'll bet bootloaders loosen significantly, and Sammy makes rooting easy, and has huge hardware cost advantages. C'mon HTC!

[Android Software Development] Wizard2K:
Hi, I have HTC Desire Z, with last update from HTC.

I want to use this tool but I don't know what method I must use.

I have also some question:

If root operation works ok my phone will wipe or I still found everything as before root procedure?

If somethong goes wrong there is some possibility to brick phone?

What kind of option I must select the reboot options, what option I must select?

I can also not select "Flash HBOOT Image" right?

And the last question, If I want to install Cyanogen Mod after I gained root access Can I simply use Mod Manager right?

Thanxs for the anwsers! :)

If you unlock your bootloader and flash an insecure kernel, it will root your device!
[Android Software Development] asp2010:
Yeah, but that kinda defeats the whole point, doesn't it? If you unlock your bootloader, you can just flash a ROM, which is most likely already rooted. People are expecting a tool to get them from stock to having full root acces, like revolutionary, when they read your title. IMHO...
[Android Software Development] lyriquidperfection:

I just upgraded my phone to android 4.0.4 and it's alot different than whatever i was using before. It's from Bell. I can't find an option to add or remove desktops (or canvases as they were called on my old os)

I've tried pressing and holding on an empty desktop to remove it, but it just displays all desktops, allows me to scroll through them, and select apps and widgets to add to them.

There must be a way to do this, when I first upgraded I only had 3, like I did with my old OS, but some settings were screwed up and apps as well so I did a reset, now I have 7 or so.

Anyone know how to remove them? I only need 3 maybe 4.

UPDATE: figured it out after 2 hours. If anyone else has this problem (i'm probably the only one to ever have it) pinch the screens, then you can remove them.
