First of all, you have to unlocked your bootloader through HTCDev.com

secondly, Flash Custom Recovery, you can use either TWRP or CMW, the one that posted by [MENTION=1219335]jmz[/MENTION]

thirdly, flash superuser zip through recovery - u can find it here in XDA

Voila, you got a rooted HTC Desire 601

Well, we dont have any other threads. We should make some guides, the devs can make threads for their work and eventually we could have a section.

Doesn't boot for me (reboots after starting to make the dalvik cache), the prod2 version reboots too, but the prod1 works well. Really dont know what the problem is..
[HTC Desire 601] kairi_zeroblade:
can you dump me a last_kmsg..on what version are you??cl or ul??can anyone also confirm this??as i have said pages back i have implemented dynamic cache management means that all writeback and cache related values will be handled by the kernel..so anything that will override those values that kernel sets it will make a fuss..

Completely stock odexed ROM ZARA UL, of course with deleted/added some thing, but I dont think its from the ROM. prod1 version works flawlessly, but prod2 & prod3 reboot after starting to collect dalvik.

[HTC Desire 601] Orizence:
Well, yes and no... If you were to theoretically update to KitKat you will probably loose root and some things like busybox. But if you unlock your bootloader again and flash a recovery and superuser again you will be fine. If you haven't already I would recommend you S-OFF because with every new OTA comes a new HBOOT which will probably fix the exploit used to S-OFF.
[HTC Desire 601] -Duir-:

Please don't flame & torture me for asking this question...but I have googled and read through a lot of this thread & now I'm at a standstill...I have the Zara_CL & it is HTC dev unlocked, I have installed TWRP touch recovery, I have supersu working, & now from what I've read and understood.. I now need to use romrunner to get s-off? First of all am I right? Secondly, does anyone have the right romrunner that I need? And Thank you for any info that you can give, & any advice at this point would be greatly appreciated. This phone is far different from the HTC MyTouch 4g that I am moving from...
[HTC Desire 601] Akishima:
Here's a quick step to S-off your device:

1. Make sure you're already rooted and unlocked:

2. Download the latest Rumrunner (v 0.5.0) for universal device:

3. Flash unsecured_boot.img (this is needed for Zara UL, dunno for Zara CL) you can find it somewhere in this thread:

4. Execute soju.exe (make sure your screen is not locked with pattern or pass)

5. Wait until rumrunner gets into pouring (2), then your device will bootlooped:

6. Boot into fastboot, and then relocked your bootloader:

7. Voila, your device are S-OFFed

Hopefully this will help you.
[HTC Desire 601] jjbadd385:
Thank you, I will give it a shot, however can anyone with a Zara_cl confirm whether I need to flash unsecured_boot.img? I'm going to look for my answer, but maybe I'll get it here before I find it. This is a very informative Thread, its just a little difficult to find what you're looking for. I hope it gets its own section in the future. There are very intelligent people here in this thread..

EDIT****

Found my answer a few pages back, but I have another, Can you to avoid the bootloop by deleting the "hcheck" file before using romrunner?
[HTC Desire 601] jmz:
yes...removing that file at any point won't cause any harm

Please help before I throw this phone in the trash (Desire 601 cl)

Can someone please help me with getting my phone back to stock? I don't know what I did, but TWRP is telling me there is no OS installed. I tried to fix it so many different ways, but always get stuck on white HTC screen, then nothing. I can get into bootloader and the phone says unlocked, tampered. When I try to do factory reset, nothing happens but white screen. I did have it rooted, so SU is on there, but I am at my wits end and hate to spend another $300 if I can get this one working. Right now I am stuck using my old beat up EVO.

I have completed everything root, s-off, & I was wanting your advice, do you think it's better to relock the bootloader after s-off? And with s off can you flash roms with the bootloader locked?
[HTC Desire 601] mrplowdan:
yippy! now to change my mid and look into changing the horribly bright boot screen

[HTC Desire 601] modifhigher:
My bootloader is S Off and relocked,i flash roms just fine.
[HTC Desire 601] mrplowdan:
I'd just leave it locked and delete /system/bin/hcheck

you can still flash roms with custom recoveries while locked, but you can't from fastboot while locked.

The only advantage I can think of to relock is so its slightly more secure if its stolen and someone wants to access your data, but if you have a custom recovery installed your already insecure (adb can pull your /data partition)
[HTC Desire 601] jjbadd385:
1.15.557.1 is my OS on the hboot screen. Is that normal or should it be something else? I tried flashing ENG_ hboot & it said my "custom id check failed" but I think it partially stuck but I ain't sure? What should my hboot look like?
[HTC Desire 601] zha0300:
i have the same problem, i am using the zara ul
[HTC Desire 601] mrplowdan:
I'm guessing you guys are trying to flash the eng hboot, check out the android-info.txt file inside the zip file, look at the mids and model number required. In fastboot mode run the command

fastboot getvar all

Does the model and cid match any of those in the android-info.txt file? Mine didn't, so I altered the txt file to match my model, just 'cause I live to live dangerously, and its all good.

I see your a zara_cl (us virgin mobile) correct? If so go to [MENTION=4492889]-Duir-[/MENTION] Google drive and download the RUU, relock your bootloader first and boot into hboot and go to fastboot and plug your device in then run the RUU

Thank you, I will try that. The problem is when I plug phone into computer, it lists it as a blank, not htc desire or whatever., so I dunno if I can lock bootloader. Will try though. Thanks again.
[HTC Desire 601] Leafs99:
That's a first, usually the U.S.A gets updates before Canada.:D
[HTC Desire 601] beergirl2u:
Well, I tried that but cannot lock bootloader. Any suggestions? I can't take using this EVO anymore. If there is no OS installed, how do I install when if I am S-on?
[HTC Desire 601] modifhigher:
I also have the Virgin Mobile Zara.according to this info youve listed,thats the point where i flashed a custom recovery,then the su zip through that recovery,then rumrunner to get S-Off.

THEN run the RUU to get rid of the tampered flag in hboot.

To flash recovery,do it in fastboot.

"Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

I just renamed the recovery to recovery,because its easier.

If it succeeds,reboot into the custom recovery,and flash the superSU zip.if you get to this point successfully,youre halfway there.let me know and ill give you more instructions.

You can also try downloading one of jmzs stock rooted roms.if its saying no OS installed then i think you may have wiped your system by mistake.but if you download one of these roms,and save it to an external sd card,you can install it in TWRP.

My apologies for not asking it was intended for my personal use only. I had posted earlier if it was possible to use your rom on ZaraUL but no response therefore I figured you may be very busy and decided to give it a try myself. No harm intended. That being said. Yes I integrated multi-language keyboard and other apps from your ZaraUL DeOdexed rom to Your Custom ZaraCL V1 rom.

and replaced the build.prop from your ZaraCL rom with the one from the ZaraUL rom for it to work on the ZaraUL.

Note:I didn't remove any of the cdma apps because I was not sure if it would affect functionality. if you can remove them or if I can help in anyway let me know.

Thanks again for your effort and hard work.
