same but with root if im not wrong :)

i dont know if the version we have is the latest, no?

Thanks!
[HTC Desire 601] jmz:
For ZaraUL users. Please test the kernel I posted. There really is no reason it shouldn't work for you. But backup first
[HTC Desire 601] Orizence:
Im sorta scared to flash knowing that it says that the kernel is for the HTC First.
[HTC Desire 601] jmz:
HTC First?
[HTC Desire 601] Orizence:
When you launch the zip, once the Aroma installer runs it says "You're about to flash Jmx Kernel for HTC First (mystul)". Is this just because you use the same installer for all your kernels? I just wanna make sure im using the right kernel for my device.
[HTC Desire 601] jmz:
Yes I copied the installer from my other kernel. I will fix that right now. Next release will have that fixed

Its purely a missed typo
[HTC Desire 601] tonydd:
Do I need to be s-off to flash kernel?
[HTC Desire 601] jmz:
Yes
[HTC Desire 601] tonydd:
I'm not ready to s-off just yet. BTW am I wrong in assuming my software is older. It says I'm at 1.10.661.8
[HTC Desire 601] Orizence:
I flashed the kernel on my Zara_UL it boots, and oc works.
[HTC Desire 601] Hedied4me:
Just wanted to say thanks again to jmz for your work. Really awesome to see devs working on the 601.
[HTC Desire 601] Akishima:
I wanted to try jmz kernel, but I can't have a S-OFF for my Zara UL, rumrunner just can't do its job. Does anybody here with Zara UL successfully got their device S-OFF?

edit.

after I tried to S-OFF my device the bootloader has the *TAMPERED* above the unlocked status, and my superuser start to act weird, I can't update binaries and I can't use busybox.

is there any solution to fix this?

thanks a bunch
[HTC Desire 601] Kolma:
Just got my HTC Desire 601 and absolutely loving it!:laugh:

Going to keep it stock for a while as it hasn't driven me crazy yet but didn't bother to even give blinkfeed a try as I instally put Nova Launcher back on.

I'm hoping this phone turns into the next Optimus V/Evo 3D with awesome support but unsure since lack of a Sprint Model.:good:

Also hoping for HTC to officially sell double dip flip cases. I saw one on amazon but HTC customer support said they didn't sell them *shrugs*

[HTC Desire 601] arindam.palit:
Hello Mayank I also have htc 601 dual sim and from india too. Please tell me from where you got d RUU for htc desire 601 dual sim? I want to root too!

---------- Post added at 07:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:09 PM ----------

Guys, use these steps to set your ext sd card to be the default location for all app installs. ****No Root Required****

1. Ensure you have the usuals (USD Debugging, adb shell etc)

2. Navigate to the folder you extracted ADB to

3. Type adb shell, press enter.

4. Type pm{space}set-install-location{space}2

5. Type Exit

And you are done!!

You can now move apps that are already on the handset to the SD Card. Head to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> All -> Click an app -> Move to SD Card. All new apps will install to the SD Card.

No Root required. Working smoothly on my HTC 601 dual sim. Now I do not need root at all!

Let me know if you face any issues!
[HTC Desire 601] mayankneil:
dude......i can move apps to sd card without this shell things.....and i got the RUU here link - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B--CL4BDwaTtaUgyX05yQkhYZ1U/edit?usp=sharing

Hi. Here is jmz kernel in flashable zip ( in recovery ) for S-on Zara UL users ( Min Frek 384 MHz Max 1,674 GHz )
[HTC Desire 601] jmz:
Mine really doesn't do anything different than that. What would make this flashable for s-on users? Or do these devices allow flashing of boot in recovery being s-on?
[HTC Desire 601] -Duir-:
Difference is there is a boot.img which can be extracted and flashed via fastboot, while the zip will still flash the modules.

Has there been any new information on obtaining permanent root? Or do we have to wait for HTC to release source code.
[HTC Desire 601] russellvone:
Have you htcdev unlocked already?

!#quote my post if you want to get my attention more quickly
[HTC Desire 601] Obeezy562:
No luck yet , HTC is taking their sweet time to release the sources

There's not much of a point yet of HTC unlocking since there's no root guide or custom recovery yet
[HTC Desire 601] russellvone:
#EDIT#
[HTC Desire 601] Hedied4me:
I had no idea we would have to wait so long. I would have stuck it out with my old phone (evo V) a little longer, especially now since cdma has a cm 11 rom now. Bummer
[HTC Desire 601] Akishima:
hTC always priorities its signature phone like the One series in terms of releasing the kernel source code.. and cause Desire 601 is not one of their signature phone we just have to wait then.

I've just got my Desire 601 (yeayy!!) :D

So if anyone have any tips regarding maximizing this device (before we got S-off and root of course) please share it here or PM me.. :highfive:

[HTC Desire 601] `Ghost`:
Im having an issue with my Desire 601 that i wonder if anyone else is having. Mobile ID keeps trying to download essentials every time i restart the phone. I want to just let it install so i can delete whatever it installed and so the annoying message would stop displaying. HOWEVER when its installing the VM Iconpack it tells me that theres not enough memory on the phone. however it does this on a complete bare factory reset phone. ive even put a 32gb microsd in the phone and it still does this. at this point im waiting for root so i can titanium backup and freeze mobile ID until the cold hard end of the universe
[HTC Desire 601] Obeezy562:
YES!!! I'm having this issue too ! All I can do is force stop it and force stop sprint installer, hasn't popped up since
[HTC Desire 601] jj411:
Just got mines today. Really liking it so far. It's definitely an upgrade from the One V. But I too am having that download issue after a reboot.
[HTC Desire 601] jj411:
Also, i had no idea this thing has NFC.
[HTC Desire 601] Obeezy562:
I hope we get root soon I want to debloat it so bad lol and I know right this phone is amazing!
[HTC Desire 601] jj411:
you can also browse the net or download from the play store while in a phone call.. does anyone know if it's possible to toggle from 4G to 3G to 1x?
[HTC Desire 601] Obeezy562:
There's no option to unfortunately, switches from 3G to 4G(LTE) when available.

When u have 4G and you receive a call you can browse the web and talk at the same time yes but when your on 3G you can't
[HTC Desire 601] standak14:
I asked [MENTION=4350492]neXus PRIME[/MENTION] to help with recovery :) Big thanks
[HTC Desire 601] -Duir-:
I'm having that same issue with my phone. After forever on the phone with VM's "Advanced" Tech Support, they are sending me a new phone. Hopefully that solved the problem because right now it retries every 90 seconds. I tried force stopping both the sprint installer and mobile id (had only done mobile id) will see if that works for stopping the retry attempts. Worse part is, I don't event want that crap on my phone, but without root no way to remove the mobile ID app.

EDIT: I think I had it stopped with just stopping mobile id, I saw it downloading again and was like "crap" but it looks like it does that no matter what - it'll download and say touch to install (vs. just auto-installing) so I just cleared the notification and so far no more retry attempts.
[HTC Desire 601] Obeezy562:
whats up -Duir-!! nice seeing you here from the one v! and yeah that happened to me also it kept retrying and retrying to install every few seconds but i kept force stopping and unticked the notifications option on app info. Hasnt popped up in days now but mobile id app still runs in the background but thankfully doesnt attempt to reinstall the stupid VM apps. We need root ASAP. :crying: lol
[HTC Desire 601] -Duir-:
Yep, it's a really nice phone. Loving it over the One V - which already seems so much smaller now lol. I edited my post - it's stopped for me now so far. Hopefully if we can get root and a custom recovery xda will give us a forum section too :fingers-crossed:
[HTC Desire 601] Obeezy562:
I miss my one v lol i still have it , it did its job lol so did my evo 3d and now its the desires job :victory:

we really need our own section on xda it would be really helpful and would get a lot of attention for our development :good:
[HTC Desire 601] jmz:
I get that. Its just the way it was worded I guess....

Thanks for the zip file dude (I also clicked thanks), should we flash this zip in recovery or fastboot?
[HTC Desire 601] standak14:
In recovery :)
[HTC Desire 601] Akishima:
thanks dude, anyway do you have any solution to disable write protection, because I'm trying to debloat using Titanium Backup, but it keeps hang and stuck.

Thanks once again
[HTC Desire 601] standak14:
In this kernel write protection disabled. Use root explorer
[HTC Desire 601] Akishima:
Waw this is news, so after I flash this in recovery all need to do, is erase the apps through root explorer?

CL user were able to s-off. If you look back through the thread only UL & DUG users are unable to s-off. And it still looks to be that way although I don't know for sure.
[HTC Desire 601] ClockworkImpulse:
I remember it had that bootloop issue. Unless you relocked. Is it still doing that, and does locking the bootloader mess up s-off?
[HTC Desire 601] Hedied4me:
Yes you still have to relock the bootloader and no that doesn't mess up s-off. I haven't tried but I follow this thread extremely close hoping to see good news.

rumrunner.us works fine, not sure what you guys are talking about. Just make sure your bootloader is unlocked, you have an unsecure kernel and are rooted.

So your s-on with jmz kernel correct ?

[HTC Desire 601] tonydd:
Not sure what the benefit of being s-off is at the moment:confused:
[HTC Desire 601] ClockworkImpulse:
Its more for preparing. It allows us to have AOSP roms on our phones. I know JMZ is working on a AOSP Rom. And I'm working on a Unicorn Rom for us as well.
[HTC Desire 601] tonydd:
I know that's why we need one, just don't see the rush to s-off yet. BTW, can't wait for you guys to publish something.
[HTC Desire 601] ClockworkImpulse:
Well it just allows us to get that Rom building going. Most people should be fine without it and I'm thinking that many will wait till KitKat is out to S-Off their device.
[HTC Desire 601] Akishima:
Waw awesome dude, could you please tell us how you got it worked? What is unsecured kernel? Is it different from unsecured boot?

I already unlocked my phone and tried almost 10 times but still not working.
[HTC Desire 601] mrplowdan:
I'm assuming your refering to an unlocked bootloader when you mention unsecured boot? If so no an unsecured kernel is not the same. An unsecured kernel will allow you, or a program in this case (rumrunner), can remount the /system partition as writable. A quick way to check if you have an unsecured kernel is to try the command

while the phone has adb debugging enabled and connected to your computer. You'll get a remount failed error message if your not running an unsecured kernel. I got the kernel from this thread somewhere, good luck finding it! If you can't find it after a thourogh search I'll see if I can find it.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention you also have to have usb debugging enabled to get s-off working.

S-off checklist:

root

unlocked bootloader

unsecured kernel

usb debugging enabled

Run rumrunner.us to s-off

Good luck,

PS we really need a section for this phone so we can get guides up without having to read through +100 pages for tidbits
[HTC Desire 601] Akishima:
thanks for the quick respond man, I already got everything except the unsecured kernel and I'm not sure which one is it in this thread.

Hopefully you can find it and posted here cause maybe that's my missing link in the S-OFF process, and yeah I got the message:

c:\android-tools>adb remount

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

remount failed: Operation not permitted
[HTC Desire 601] mrplowdan:
found it, you even responded to his post lol

unfortunatly his link is now dead, good thing I have it on my computer still!

Note this obviously was not created by me but it worked fine on my UL

[HTC Desire 601] Akishima:
I've tried to flash this unsecured boot and my zara got hang in the bootloader, then I pull my battery out and reboot it again, when I clicked adb shell the result is this:

c:\android-tools>adb shell

shell@android:/ $

Does it means that I failed flashing the unsecured boot?
[HTC Desire 601] mrplowdan:
How did you flash it exactly? What do you mean 'hang in the bootloader'? It freezes while in fastboot after flashing it? The original poster says to test the kernel using fastboot boot desire601_unsecure_boot.img

that doesn't actually flash the kernel, it just boots it for testing purposes and I don't think you can actually boot an external kernel unless your s-off, I'm not totally sure though. But that could explain why the bootloader is freezing

What you want to run is

fastboot flash boot desire601_unsecure_boot.img

Not neccisarly, you'd have to check with adb remount rather than adb shell
[HTC Desire 601] David Roid:
Even with unsecure kernel, as long as S is ON, you still cannot make permanent changes to system partition, am I understanding this right?
[HTC Desire 601] Akishima:
I followed russellvone's instruction, my steps are:

Enter the fastboot

type: fastboot boot desire601_unsecure_boot.img

it says something about boot and something like "finished, time: 0.90 bla bla bla"

and then my phone start to freeze.

still remount failed: Operation not permitted :crying:
[HTC Desire 601] mrplowdan:
Kinda of, you can make system changes from recovery with s-on, s-off is needed to make changes any time

Unsecured kernel is pretty pointless while in s-on mode except it's a necessary step to run romrunner to get s-off

---------- Post added at 08:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:42 PM ----------

Awesome! Thats exactly what I thought was happening, reread my post again.

---------- Post added at 09:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:43 PM ----------

Alright here's a hint, add flash after fastboot
[HTC Desire 601] Akishima:
so, I should type: fastboot flash boot desire601_unsecure_boot.img or fasboot flash desire601_unsecure_boot.img?

is it safe enough to flash?
[HTC Desire 601] mrplowdan:
Yes the first one

fastboot flash boot desire601_unsecure_boot.img

That is exact file and command I used on my ul
[HTC Desire 601] Akishima:
I've flashed it and now I'm trying S-OFF rumrunner again.

still in pouring <2> for about 5 minutes, and my phone keeps bootloop, how much time does it need to finish the process?

and in my boot screen there is a red text says that " This build is for development purpose only bla bla bla"

what should I do now?

edit.

I finally got my Zara UL S-OFF and I locked it again using the method that [MENTION=1381619]duir[/MENTION] have mentioned before, so now my device is S-OFF and LOCKED (not relocked) but I still got this TAMPERED flag, does anyone here knows how to get rid of it?

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Desire 601] mrplowdan:
Pull the battery and boot to the boot loader, you'll notice your now s-off!

Boot to recovery and mount the system partition.

adb shell

And then delete /system/bin/hcheck by typing

rm /system/bin/hcheck

Then reboot and you should be good to go

Your bootloader must be RELOCKED , the RUU won't work if your bootloader is UNLOCKED as far as recovery and kernel goes it doesn't matter as the RUU will reinstall all original files as if it was in box again ;)

[HTC Desire 601] -Duir-:
You need to lock the bootloader before running the RUU. Or you can stay unlocked and manually flash it. If you S-OFF, you can unlock the bootloader again using a command and not have the data partition get wiped.

Let me repeat again.

1. If you flash a random boot.img here you are likely to break WiFi. I didn't look at what device that boot.IMG was for. But if it isn't for your variant you will break WiFi.

2. If you want s-off and unlocked then RM the file at /system/bin/hcheck
