That I do not work for me, only changes gps.conf.

The problem with us CID_622 is another unfortunately.

We hope to find a solution!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] noname_europe:
thanks i tested it but it only change gps.conf
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] emilcioran99:
I don't think that your GPS will work ever, if you use chinese roms for this phone.

Try one of 4PDA roms and see that I'm right or not. :)

Hi, please give us your feedback.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Mrozik1990:
I downloaded it but unfortunately I don't have password to unpack zip file (inside it is rom in zip too). But I found another custom ROM without stock apps in chinese forum. I'll test it tomorrow cause I need to do system backup about 2600MB and I don't have so much memory :P
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Mrozik1990:
Ok guys, good news!

I was looking for any custom, even without my native language, just wanted a fast one without lags as in stock rom. And finally my 606w works excellent :victory:

1. Download this thined ROM (without almost all chinese apps) from here - tap on a blue rectangle

http://www.romzj.com/resources/default.html?view=rom&id=11225

This rom has even transparention on a dock and drawer on Sense5.0 :good: It's also rooted. Languages available - only english and chinese.

Flash it normally via recovery (install zip from SD card).

2. This rom has no Google Play Store and even a HTC marketplace. I was looking for a working one for two days and finally I got correct gapps. Download it from here and flash via recovery (install zip from SD card) http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip

3. Log into your Google account, GP should work. If you will have an error of any other gapps like G+ or Keep just uninstall it and download from Google Play again. Should work correctly.

4. I'm from Poland and i wanted to have a polish language in my new ROM. All I could do was to install from GP app "MoreLocale2". I set polish there and over 80% is translated. Try this app to translate menu at your languages.

If you'll have any questions just ask :) Hope it will be helpfull.

Guys, our friends from 4PDA found a method to S-OFF our phone.

I tried and everything is ok now.

Congratulations for 4PDA and Rumrunner guys!!!

Preparation:

- unlocked bootloader;

- SU installed.

These 2 are must have condition to S-OFF!

To S-OFF:

1. First of all, you must clean your phone (I tried 3 times with the rom like in my everyday use and didn't work, so I wipe all and after wipe, all things works like a charm.) so:

- backup your rom and move the backup from your phone to PC or SD card;

- wipe data/factory reset;

- wipe cache;

- wipe dalvik cache;

- reboot.

2. Go here and download "HTC Desire X (proto/protou) Windows" - rumrunner_proto_0.7.1.zip - 21.4 MB

3. Go here and follow the instructions.

4. All process for Rumrunner to S-OFF your phone lasts 5-10-15 minutes with multiple reboots and If all things works well, at the end you will have an S-OFF phone.

5. After you S-OFF your phone, reboot normaly. Let the phone boot and wait 1-2 minutes. Off your phone and boot in recovery.

6. With ADB launch this command:

fastboot oem writecid 11111111

Now you have an S-OFF phone with supercid! :good:

Th only disadvantage (which is also annoying) is that upon bootup (when you off the phone, on the phone and/or reboot) your device vibrates 7 times.

But this is as I said, a minor drawback compared to the gain of having a phone S-OFF.

If you want to go back to S-ON:

1. Download the above Hboot bootloader (firmware.zip);

2. Put the downloaded zip file into the folder where you have installed ADB on your PC (ex: mine is at c:/android/);

3. Launch these commands:

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

4. After you flash the Hboot, enter the following commands:

fastboot oem writesecureflag 3

fastboot reboot

The result is that you now have an S-ON phone again.

Enjoy and ... good luck my friends! ;)

Again, I am not responsible for anything other than piecing together this informations and posting them here.

All thanks and credits go to our friends on 4PDA and those from Rumrunner!

Refferences:

- PDA

- Rumrunner

Have you tried the China's ROM and is the GPS working?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] emilcioran99:
Yes, tried Shotme's roms and GPS works just fine. :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ozikat12:
Great, I will give it a short. Hopefully it does works on Desire 600 Dual Sim (sometime I confused 600/606) :mad:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ozikat12:
Arggg... No luck for me, GPS still not working..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] emilcioran99:
Think that your gps firmware in your phone is messed by you.

To have an working gps you must flash a complete firmware (with Hboot, kernel, radio,etc).

Over the internet you can't find an non chinese (european) complete firmware.

IF YOU HAVE AN S-OFF plus SUPERCID phone

you can flash this firmware.

It's 1.20.1402.1 chinese firmware.

Download it, rename it to PO49IMG.zip, copy it to the sd card, reboot in bootloader and let the things works.

Good luck.

I had some problems with my phone because in the past tried to S-OFF it with different programs from other phone models.

When I found that is a solution to S-OFF our phone was very happy and after S-OFF and supercid my phone, flashed many roms/firmware , european (from 4PDA) or chinese and everything is ok.

On my phone now I have installed same chinese complete firmware (China Unicom 1.20.1402.1) plus 1.21.707.4 (Asia WWE) plus 1.22.707.1 (Asia) and after all, flashed a chinese Shotme's rom and everything it's ok.

The phone works like a new one. :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ozikat12:
Thanks mate! Let me try s-off my phone :cyclops: I like the ShotMe ROM, it's super light!

I haven't done any config change on the GPS.conf, hopefully after S-OFF the GPS works ;)

S-OFF-ing now...

---------- Post added at 03:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:57 AM ----------

Woohoo... Now my phone is S-OFF! But... GPS still not working... need to look up for some GPS.conf for the phone I guess....

Delete on a flash drive (SD-card) in the folder clockworkmod everything except the folder Backup (if it exists). 4. Unpack the downloaded file on your computer (the folder will also clockworkmod with attachments). 5.

S-OFF Faild

S-OFF faild please help

I have tried Universal Rumrunner month ago

please help me what to do
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] emilcioran99:
S-OFF and supercid are nothing to do about to be able to remove sys apps.

You can remove sys apps even with and S-ON phone if you have rooted it.

With apps like "system app remover", "system tuner", "root explorer", etc. :)

IF you follow my instructions and rumrunner instructions there are 99,99 % chances to get S-OFF and supercid.

Did you see and understand this rumrunner instructions:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] emilcioran99:
Don't know what to say...

You can try this: wipe everything (factory reset + cache + dalvik cache), flash a custom rom , root it and try after this to gain S-OFF. :)

Finally got my HTC 606w from Ebay. The phone was rooted by the seller and there is some old NewBee custom ROM inside. I am living in Europe and the GPS is working fine, probably the problem is not ROM related.

On this ROM, there are some Chinese apps still installed. Currently I have found three different custom ROMs. Which one is the best? Is some totally free of the Chinese apps?

- NewBee ROM HTC 606w Rom V3.0

- romzj DOT com/resources/default.html?view=rom&id=11225

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] fshek:
Had flashed "Custom_rom_htc_desire600_cp3dug_deodex_gps&root_SU_QS_call_rec_sd-rev_moded_IMG_v1.3.86" from SPSPaWn and it is basically working fine.

- Google framework are readily available (DOn't take it for granted, official 606w being sold in Mainland China does not have any Google service.... :P)

- Icons & battery gauge on the notification bar become better looking

- The quick panel bar now becomes editable

- Seeder also comes with this ROM for lag reduction. Some degree of improvement observed.

By default, this ROM kind of swaps the ext SD and Int SD (i.e. all apps to be installed on ext SD card, but not the internal one). I don't like this configuration, and SPSPaWn actually provided patches to resume to the normal memory location.

S-off is NOT implemented on this ROM. All file changes in SYSTEM folder will resume after re-boot. So Ad Block or Adaway are not working normally >.<
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hmskrecik:
Well, most probably it does. By any chance, did you find english version too? ;)

Looks interesting. I would try it myself but I'm a little afraid because of not being able to turn back. I couldn't find 606w images and CWM backup/recovery is not working (see my earlier posts: it can't mount any storage).

BTW, is S-OFF achieved on Desire 600?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] fshek:
The CWM recovery I am using is a Chinese version and it mounts both int and ext SD flawlessly. There are also a number of official RUU roms available on some Chinese android phone mod web sites.That's why I have the courage to flash the ROM :P

I have been following almost all available online resources for 606w from China, Taiwan, and XDA... but no S-OFF as far as I know... >.<

And int to ext sd swapping. is it required for custom rom?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Dark-Wolf25:
No. Custom Rom swap your memory but your device's Memory (mean int sd) can't be used anymore and your sdcard will be your int sd. New status bar just like samsung (easy to switch on/off Wifi, mobile internet,...)

Hi all,

I just signed in here at XDA, but I'm not new into these kind of forums.

I previously searched for directions on how to root the HTC Desire 606w on an Italian android forum, but with no results.

I received the 606w as a present from a chinese friend, and I wolud like to use it...but before I wolud like to clean it from all the preinstalled chinese apps that are currently impossible to remove (and, of course, install then the google play store).

So, I unblocked the bootloader (that was easy :p), but I wasn't able to root it.

I tried to run the 4EXT recovery and then AmonRa...but both failed :rolleyes:.

So I found out here on XDA that the argument has been trated, and I read all the posts about it, but I didn't really understood how is the procedure to get it rooted and what's about the ROM used (and eventually wich one seems works better and how to put it in).

Could someone please help me out to understand what/how has to be used?

Thanks in advance.
