If your phone has an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery then it is possible, even likely, that there will be a pre-rooted version of Marshmallow made available for your phone by some developer in these forums that you can download and flash yourself even before your carrier pushes the OTA update to your phone.

I've seen it happen.

I have never understood the panic to unroot for an update. I never have and still always have the latest android version on whatever phone I have at the moment.

Just FYI - Motorola is now unlocking the XT1096 Verizon Moto X 2014 bootloaders BUT of course it voids your warranty (and wipes your device).

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] thoctor:
I can help you with the first part. You can get a free Google wallet card and link your checking account to it, I did, and it's safe and secure like a credit card because it only has access to the money you transfer into it and uses a token system from Mastercard to handle all transactions so there is no digital trail to your checking account from the payee , just the token from Mastercard. I don't use credit cards so that's why I have one but there's many reasons someone might use this service. I paid for my S off this way. As for other S off methods, this is it I believe .
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Einsteindks:
Quite frankly, if you ask me, it is much more well worth while to pay for removing the bootloader lock using Sunshine, and avoid that damned wipe!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] JulesJam:
But if you are on 5.1 already and have a MX14, Sunshine doesn't work b/c you can't get root on 5.1.

For me the issue is the warranty - I paid for the extended warranty and the accidental damage policy. I would rather use Sunshine and not have to deal with voiding my warranty but I shattered my screen so when I get a refurb, it will be on 5.1 so I won't have a choice but to go through Motorola for an unlock.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Einsteindks:
My lack of experience will really show here, but I thought that root was taken care of with the latest version of SunShine? Or maybe that's just for a few select phones?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] JulesJam:
I don't think that is for the MX14 - I think it is for the DT and M8 only.

Please how can i flash custom rom on Huawei mobile phones?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] JulesJam:
I would check the Huawei forums for information on that.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] charlae4ive:
Thanks i await for your reply
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Paul.ryan:
I think what JulesJam meant is that if he were "you" he would check the Huawei forum. I doubt that you will be spoon fed information that you can find on your own.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] JulesJam:
I'm not going to reply - you need to read the Huawei forums to find the information you are looking for. This is not the correct thread for the information you are seeking.

So, sunshine is the only method to s-of HTC m7 by paying 25 USD. Is a great phone but 25...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] beaups:
You might find someone with a javacard to do it, or find some other vulnerability and exploit it.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Uzephi:
This has been discussed before. If you don't want to pay for sunshine, you can buy a Java card to s-off. Last I checked they run 500 USD for 250 s-off tokens....

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] KB2VYZ:
This software is worth every bit of the $25. With Sunshine and some root tools I was able to unlock, s-off, root and rom my M7 without my phone EVER touching a computer. To this day this phone still hasn't been connected to a computer.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jcase:
Lots of options in this world, each has it's own drawbacks. Lets please keep this thread on topic, meaning SunShine support.

Know that sunshine is made with hard work, we don't steal anything from anyone. We also support more than just HTC, and we do our best to be very "clean", meaning we see no purpose in flagging devices as having used SunShine.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Uzephi:
Apologies. On topic I would like to confirm for those out there, sim unlock worked while s-off a friend's AT&T One M8. He was able to swap to a T-Mobile sim with only htcdev for bootloader unlock and sunshine.

hello iv just got my son a htc desire 620,,but its only 8 gb,, 4gd ov that htc partion,,i was just wondering if i s,off this device with sunshine would i be able 2 fully format the hole 8gb partion as off so i can gain the full 8gb,,thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Einsteindks:
One of the time-tested questions; can I repartition the phone's memory. The answer is that requires sophisticated know-how, and isn't practical. It is the main reason why many of us like removable SD cards. Fortunately, most phones are coming out with larger memories now. You may want to look into exchanging for a bigger memory foam, if the SD card option isn't available to you.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] thoctor:
I don't have your model but I do have the HTC Desire 816 with similar storage issues and I believe that you could but that partition has the stock firmware in it and room for any stock updates if I'm not mistaken so that would be bad. Some, once S off, use a root file explorer or Titanium Backup app to move some non system apps to system apps to improve storage space and although that has made me think about it I've never personally done it.

What I and allot of people do is partition their external SD card using EaseUS partition manager exe program on a P.C. then install Link2SD app from the play store and move non system apps that work when moved, which is most all, to the external SD card thus freeing up space in internal storage.

I use the paid version of the app for a couple of dollars and it allows you to move all the app files over including data and that is what really frees up space for my device. Instructions for partitioning a card properly using EaseUS are found online and the apps faq page has all the other app answers. My phone offers some free mods here in XDA to do most of what is needed to the phone system permissions that allow Link2SD to work properly but I prefer full S off for several reasons but mainly because it leaves my phones SElinux permissions alone and I can easily do stock updates if I want without having to undo any mods done to my system first.

So a Droid Mini running 4.4.4 can't be unlocked with Sunshine? Is that correct?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jcase:
correct
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andTab:
Sorry, if you spend the extra money to get a dev version of a phone and then you have to pay AGAIN to use custom ROMs, it feels very much like a rip-off.

Especially, since this used to be free!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jcase:
SunShine was never free, not one bit of it was ever free.

We don't force you to buy it, or use it, SunShine is not a requirement to use your phone.

We also dont prevent YOU (or anyone) from investing money and time into making a similar app, and releasing it for free. In fact, we have probably released more training, exploit source code, and vulnerability details than anyone else (on Android). Feel free to grab the material (that we provide for FREE) and get to work. Heck, [MENTION=711482]beaups[/MENTION] released full vulnerability details of the most recent unlock we added, Droid Turbo.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bygrave:
geeeeezzz people still complaining about having to pay 4 sunshine,,iv always had htc phone and always s,off them and belive me the hassle ov it b.4 sunshine was a nightmare ,,,sunshine is a god send and worth every penny,,,but its also a option off your own weather u wont to use it,,,,
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] thoctor:
I'm going to say this and then I'm going to drop it because we're all entitled to our opinions and I truly respect everyone's right to have a different one than me but Sunshine app devs are NOT the bad guys here! HTC and other phone manufactures ARE! They are the ones who lock down their nand storage partitions without a stock easy way of getting into them. They have their own reasons for that but let's not get it twisted.

It's like a car manufacture that won't let you look under the hood of your own car. One guy comes along and says I can stick my screwdriver between the hood and the latch and jimmy your hood open for free but you might need some touch up paint after I'm done and another guy(Sunshine app) saying I have your model specific tool that allows your own in car hood release to work the way all other car hood latches work and it's permanent but will cost you $25! I know which way I'm going but some people need free and I respect that . Just don't be mad that you've got touch up paint and I don't.

This particular exploit is hard. The way I know that is these guys keep "begging" for competition from the indignant seats and it's crickets every time! Keep it up and we're going to end up like some other phone manufacturers customers that have zero options for S off and there are some. Then $25 will seem like nothing because that's what we will have, NOTHING!

Also, with text not speech this post could be read as being "mad" with all the exclamation points but it's absolutely not. It's more like" exasperated". Everything on the internet is not free. Thank you Sunshine devs for giving me a choice. That's all this is is an option.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] KB2VYZ:
You hit the nail on the head thoctor. $25 is a bargain for what Sunshine does. I often see people complain about having to pay the $25 (it's too expensive, it should be free, etc.). Did they ever consider the amount of time that Beaups, JCase and crew (if any) put in to this exploit? Obviously it's not very easy to accomplish because no one else is doing it. Maybe instead of complaining, they should try writing their own exploit. I myself am on a fixed income and have purchased Sunshine for 2 different phones, and when I get my next HTC One, I'll purchase Sunshine again. I appreciate the fact that Beaups and JCase are generous enough to share their hard work with us.

I'm done with my soapbox.

Thanks Beaups and JCase for keeping our HTC One M7 relevant.

Frank

Edit: For anyone that would like to root, s-off and unlock the HTC One M7 without a computer, just send me a PM and I'll tell you what tools I used to accomplish this.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] thefuryofZ3US:
I paid, sunshine had hiccups with 626s, update came and still no dice. Now 626s support has been put on hold and I'm not worried. These guys work hard to do what they do. I support them and stand behind sunshine, regardless that my s-off dreams have been put on hold. The 626s is a stubborn trick! In the end I know that should this 626 nut not crack, Jcase and Beaups will give my money back. Don't worry guys, I'm in no rush.

I just installed this on my HTC One Max. After about 8 tries, it finally ran the test and said it was compatible. Before that, all it did was crash and restart my phone. :crying: Needless to say, I will not be buying it! :(. I am probably going to upgrade this phone in a few months anyway, so no big deal!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jcase:
If you want to submit a support ticket, I will gladly look into the issue.

SunShine is an exploit, it supports dozens and dozens of models of phones, each with a dozen firmware variants, some like your's have multiple hardware variants and firmware variants, each one of these with different combinations of software. Sometimes bugs happen, its life. When we get detailed reports of them, we look at and fix them.

For instance, your report here doesn't tell us which variants of the HTC One max you have, what android version, what firmware version, or does it tell us if the crashes showed any error message. You dont say if you are pre rooted, or using our temproot. You don't say what root related apps you have installed etc.

If you want to visit our site and submit a ticket, I will track down the bug, but I need detailed information on the issue.

We certainly dont want you to buy it if it isn't working, but we do want to know about it so we can address it.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] mikekoz:
It is the Verizon version, Has been an Android 4.4.2 since I got it almost two years ago. This has been the only Android device I have ever owned that did not even receive one update, but I am digressing! It was temp rooted using Weaksauce, but I removed that before I tried Sunshine.

That's all for now

1) Temproot, yes. Not very stable, goes away each boot, probably crash a lot, once an update comes you wont be able to root again

2) What link are you using? The site works fine http://theroot.ninja/ and the download link http://theroot.ninja/apks/SunShine-latest.apk works fine too
