Hi anyone!

I would like to set my phone to s-off

On an older device, I successfully did it a few years ago with the sunshine app ($ 25 :))

My current device is HTC U11 (HTC_ocnuhl).

Bootloader unlocked (htcdev)

Rooted with magisk (rootchecker pass)

I Installed v3.5.54 Sunshine app, I had tryed run...

root check passed, pre-test passed

during a full compatibility test the application stops always (permanently)

What can I do, what the problem is?

Hi,

I have a weird problem and obviously i didn't read over 500 pages of thread so forgive me if someone ask that before.

I have an HTC One E9+ device. It's a spare device so i don't use it at all. There was Android 5.0.2 installed on it with factory settings but i unlock the bootloader via HTC website first and then i root it, installed a TWRP and wiped the phone to the bone for trying some ROM's, just for learn these things. But can't handle to install any mod or stock over adb command line or TWRP. I tried these below but i got an error message about zip fille cannot read or TWRP just restarts itself sometimes. But none of them works:

htc_one_e9+_pure_stock_twrp_1.41.401_10.zip

recovery_HTC_Europe_1.45.401.2.zip

firmware_OTA_A55ML_DTUL_L50_SENSE70_HTC_Europe_1.4 5.401.2.zip

I also tried to install Bindroid but same "cannot read" error happens.

I guess these errors related with S-ON thing. I saw the screen as "software: modified", "unlocked" and "htc_a55ml_dtul PVT S-ON" written. So the phone is not set as S-OFF right now.

As i understand correctly, your software Sunshine works only over an installed OS as apk file. Obviously i cannot run or install any apk because there's no operating system. Is there any way to use your exploit with computer connected "adb" or "fastboot" command line way?

Thanks.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jcase:
Correct it is an apk, requiring a working or at least bootable device. No sorry, nothing available from us for adb or fastboot.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] JEANRIVERA:
If what you want is to restore your device to full stock I can't help you but I'll need more information from your bootloader, give me the output

In download mode:

fastboot getvar all

Also same command in bootloader mode

Give me the output in DM since this conversation is not related to sunshine at all
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jvox111:
Thank you so much. I can't find the DM section of this forum so i sent a message to your Twitter account.

Hi, I have a Moto G 2014 (titan) and I would like to install on it a custom recovery.

In order to do it I need to unlock the bootloader.

Unluckly SunShine failed the procedure of Temproot.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

i bet somewhere in this thread : https://xdaforums.com/moto-g-2014/help/unlocking-bootloader-2020-t4115263

there lies your answer, maybe :).

and if you'll search the General Forums there are numerous threads ; Q & A , development , etc. dedicated to your device.

good luck , happy flashing & if it were me make a backup. [emoji3]

Hi, I have a question that i also asked and sent to your sunshine - rootninja site but got no reply. Here is the problem.

I know it is a cold case but I need a solution. I recently bought a brand new verizon motorola droid turbo(xt 1254) on MCG24.251-5-5 firmware, android 6.0.1. (I like the phone and it was cheap). While trying to unlock bootloader, I use auto#initroot for temporary root( https://xdaforums.com/t/root-xt1607-xt1609-xt1625-xt1254-auto-initroot-tethered-jailbreak.3639316/ ) . It is okay, fastboot reboots. I followed the guide from ( https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-how-t...all-twrp-and-gain-root-access.3292684/page-42 ) Then while the phone is not connected to pc I try to run Sunshine app but it freezes and becomes unresponsive with a blank white screen. I found sunshine 3.2 version, Tried it, first it worked but after the first testing, it asked me to get the latest version and closed. So nothing...

I think there is an incompatibility somehow. Please can you tell me or find a solution. Thanks

are there discounts for old device s-offing? I found my old m7 hboot 1.61 - not really sure if it's worth s-offfing...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jcase:
We are not really setup for this at this time, and unfortunately due to some security design decisions the amount of time to change pricing or do model specific pricing is ... way too much.

To be honest, I'm not sure I'm contractually allowed to do any further work on it (if anyone has noticed, I have not published any exploits publicly in years). We are both wrapped up in some very important things, and are time strapped.

First of all: Thank you for your amazing work all this golden android years.

Then: I need some help to buy (PayPal) a Sunshine code/license (for HTC 10) 'cause I have an error when I tried in-app purchase. I leave a Ticket Request a couple of days but still no reply.

Thank you in advance for your help

That's correct. I couldn't pay. Turns out I had my VPN on when trying to connect so my phone was blocked for unusual activity. Hopped on the IRC and the devs took care of it right away. Phenomenal support. Now I'm S-off.

I'm from Germany, so sorry my english, but when i s-off my t-mobile m8 with sunshine, will i void my warranty?

After use the sunshine program, i should have install a twrp recovery (for example with flashify) and a custom rom?

This is my first android phone, before this, i used iphones, but htc (16gb variant) hasn't got so much storage, and without root i can't install programs to my sd card, i have got only 2,5gb free storage, ridiculous...

Thank you guys. :good:
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
With s-off you can emulate the boot loader to show as locked and s-on so it isn't directly voiding your warranty...but if you unlock first with HTC dev then you could get some problems... But here in Germany we have luck that arvato/ HTC are fixing almost all problems without let us paying...so it won't be bad to do this ;) had a tmobile branded m8 too, did s-off and yea changed to locked and s-on if I have to send it to arvato/HTC
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] daffie:
Just a quick thank you. Managed to make my new M8 s-off using Sunshine (firewater didn't work). Very easy and fast method. Money well spent :)

I keep getting NETWORK ERROR for ten times and i reinstall it again but nothing moved :( maybe cuz my device dual sim ??
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] beaups:
One of our license server hosts is down. Check back in a few hours. Sorry for the inconvenience.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nicholi2789:
I got the M8 the day it was released on Verizon and I patiently awaited S-OFF and used Firewater the day it came out and donated 25$ to Beaups. Since then I have used Firewater again successfully on a refurbished Verizon device and on a couple of my friends devices. Now I got another refurb device from vzw but when I used Firewater it gets to the first bottle and fails and says "sorry but firewater will not work at this time, no amount of re-flashing, RUUing will make it work blah blah blah." I've never seen this before and have used Firewater many times successfully. So is Firewater no longer supported? If I pay the 25$ again for Sunshine will it work on my Verizon M8? Software version is 1.55.605.2. I would happily pay again if I knew for sure it will work on Verizon. Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] beaups:
Anyone getting network connection errors, new apk is live at the theroot.ninja. Uninstall your current version, download the new version, and install it. Sorry for the server troubles today.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Puff1911:
If Firewater doesn't work, use Sunshine.. simple as that.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nicholi2789:
Alright. Well if I had the money right now I would pay for Sunshine right this second, but I'm a broke bastard and don't get paid til friday. I'm suposed to send the old phone back to Verizon within three days but they will just have to wait I guess, cause I'm not sending back my old phone until I know I have S-OFF. Otherwise I'll just keep my old one, broken bottom speaker or not. Sorry I hadn't heard anything about Sunshine until today when I tried to S-OFF this refurb they sent me with Firewater. I did some searching around and found this.

So I guess basically we just have to pay for S-OFF now?

Not that I'm complaining at all. I always thought Developers were terribly unappreciated. And I always donated whenever I could (including when Firewater was first released). I know that if I spent endless hours on something that was gonna benefit thousands of people I would very much like to be paid and appreciated for my efforts. And people are really unappreciative, especially around these forums. I totally understand making it a paid exploit and am happy to pay it.

So bottom line, Firewater doesn't work anymore. If I want S-OFF on my Verizon M8 then it's Sunshine and 25$?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nateboi81:
Yup :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] houston_:
Do you know if they repair it with an unlock and tampered s-on bootloader?

Or was yours made like "100% stock"? Not just relocked?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
You can set the flag to locked like you just bought it few days ago...but here in Germany repairing isn't the real problem...if the phone is damaged somehow and it's not our fault they repair it...so yea doesn't really matter if it's locked or not :D.. but in some other countries you really need that
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kashix:
Sorry but am I right to say that if I use SunShine for my HTC M8, I don't need to go through HTCDev for the token to unlock my bootloader? So there is no way that they know that my device is unlocked, s-off, rooted and stuff? So I can still retain my warranty If needed? thanks!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nicholi2789:
Well assuming it works the same way as Firewater (which I'm sure it does mostly) Yes it will unlock your bootloader as well as s-off. It says on the Sunshine site that it unlocked and soff though.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Faisal Alro8y:
thank you sir , now everything is Ok and my device dual SIM went s-OFF :)

You deserve my respect for the great job you did and do .

Thanx again
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] houston_:
If I just relock my bootloader it will say "relocked" and the "tampered" flag will still be visible.

If I have S-Off i can do that, thats right, I made that the last time i send it in.

I am thinking about sending it in and hoping they will still repair it...

Btw: on theroot.ninja version 1.7 is out, any changelog?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
If the problems with your phone aren't your issues, like overheating or so they should repair it...only like I said if you overclock and overheat the phone extremely they won't repair it or if you break the screen or so

HTC Remix

Hi folks, and thanks for your hard work on Sunshine!

I purchased my HTC Remix this afternoon from a Verizon store. Completely stock. No microSD card. I've not downloaded anything except Sunshine (v1.7). It did the compatibility check, and (sadly) reported "Incompatible ROM. Sunshine can not be used on your current rom/kernal combination".

Any thoughts?

Thank you guys for creating such a user friendly app to do things that others couldn't! My m7 is s-off and unlocked. I'm not sure why but I thought sunshine would give me root access as well.

Till the time you have the same device your license remains intact. If you get it replaced it goes for sure :cool:
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jcase:
Due to errors many rom devs end up making (easy to make errors) we can only officially support stock. I'm sure someone can recommend a rom that works, or you can go back to stock.

License is per device, if you buy a second device or whatever, you will have to get a new license.
