Theres been an update to Sunshine, now it will auto root your along with S-off and unlocking bootloader. Just need to d/l SuperSU after the process is complete.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] ahfu25:
Thank you. I just wanted get all the information on rooting the m8 before jumping into the pool lol.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Liskrig:
Just wanted to put in my two-cents; I tried Firewater, couldn't get it to work.

Decided that I would pool my monthly dev donations into this, and give it a shot... PayPal link within the app worked flawlessly, and what has been taking me several hours a night after work to achieve (through various failed methods), took me $25 and less than a minute.

Great great method; and it was money well spent!

See you all on the Dev forums! ;)

need help, PLEASE

I have a new M8 because I pitched a fit to VZW and they gave me $400 of the device and free shipping in order to keep me from T-Mobile or ATT. I now have a problem because now I cant get permanent ROOT and Cleanrom on my device:.(.

This really does suck, I even tried Weaksauce and the Sunshine and No Love there either. Can SOMEONE/ANYONE please help me?

Tips for you

Well i would recommend you to watch this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOaRQoJWWDw and after that, i would assume that you have twrp recovery , head to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2694994 and download the the odexed or de-odexed rom , and wipe data before flashing that rom . After you have done all of these steps sunshine should work on your device and help you gain s-off :)
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] pwr1999:
This thing rocks!

So, I don’t usually write on walls or make replies. I’m also one that is very skeptical because I’ve been played. I’ve seen this a few month ago and my first thought was “ya right, this is too easy to be real” so I moved on and kept trying everything else. Well finally I said what the hick let try it, it’s only $25. THIS THING WORKS!!!! It took about 5 minutes and my phone was S-OFF and now I’m kicking myself for not doing it month ago. If any of you are skeptical don’t be!! and don’t waste any more time trying other stuff to get S-OFF. If you want S-OFF this is the way to go.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] ppgregory:
Actually for most it's the only way to gain s-off. $25 well spent especially if HTC updates block s-off exploits in the future.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] demonkc135:
I have been sitting on the fence regarding sunshine. If they charged $25 and it included the ability to use the root method more than once for the same paypal id and the same device id, not identical imei, I would have purchased without question. But here-in lies my objection: If I pay $25 to root my M8 and use TBU to backup my apps, if my phone dies and I need a replacement device, I have to pay another $25 to root my replacement phone...just to get TBU running and restore my apps.

I used to root my devices to increase battery life, improve functionality (tether), and use TBU to backup/restore my apps....since I've moved to TMO, the newer devices have much better battery life and tether is included in my plan. The only reason I would have to root my phone is to use TBU to backup/restore my apps. Since I change phones about every 6 months, using TBU saves me a ton of time to restore my apps. As such, I can't justify the $25+$25+$25 cost of sunshine entry.

I wish that they would consider a new price model...my 2 cents...Nick
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] syntropic:
I don't want to start a new thread, but if I get Sunshine s-off (I'm currently rooted and did the HTCDev unlock), then I can get a factory bootloader lock?

I would like to do this because: (i) I want to get all updates, and; (ii) I want to get the HTC free 100GB Google Drive promo (and they better give it to me!)

Then of course, I'll just use sunshine to reroot and re-unlock, and s-off again.

I am running stock with all applications (including surprisingly the calculator and flashlight which never were deleted as I've read could happen when you did an HTCDev unlock in other threads).

If someone could just confirm these steps for me to make sure this is right. (I feel a little unsure of my path here because I'm already rooted and have a unlocked bootloader).

1. Get sunshine, get S-off

2. Do nand backup

3. Use sunshine to lock bootloader.

4. Flash RUU to restore stock firmware and stock recovery.

5. Use sunshine to change to S-On

6. Get updates, attempt (vigorously if necessary) to get HTC Google Drive deal.

7. Use sunshine to unlock bootloader, get temp root, s-off

8. Flash TWRP and SuperSU.

Thanks very much in advance!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Alex-V:
works nice on my t-mobile de one m8

...i only can say...thx for this s-off method
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] suleimankhan:
I bought sunshine

And so now I've got the S-off working but there's no root?

I thought this was an all in one solution. I tired using towel root and weak sauce, neither of which worked. Sunshine had a temp root process in the beginning that it went through so I know it can be rooted.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] gustav30:
Look at step 8, 2 posts above yours to achieve root.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] robbi24r:
Did step 8 work for you? I have root but it's not sticking when I try to flash a rom for some reason. I haven't pulled the trigger on sunshine yet.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] syntropic:
It's really the easiest way to have permanent root--plus there are no worries that an update might unroot it.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] robbi24r:
Should I be concerned that my root doesn't seem to be sticking? I rooted using the one tool by Hassan (sp?) and I keep having to flash su periodically, and it won't let me flash a rom at all no matter what. I have not used Sunshine yet.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] syntropic:
If you are running 4.4.4 (i.e., the latest OTA) then you could be losing root. I am just basing this on other posts I have read...but it seems that the update might make getting root more difficult. Try running sunshine and before you enter your PayPal info, get out of the app and install SuperSU. At this point in running Sunshine, you have soft root, and from here SuperSU should give you regular root.

However, even with regular root it's not necessarily permanent until you get s-off.

I just bit the bullet and bought it. running now

cyanogen mod worked for me

Heyyo,

I have a Telus HTC One M7... moonshine didn't work, firewater didn't work and rumrunner didn't work... turns out my stock kernel on 4.4.2 with Sense 6 was blocking S-OFF.

Here's the only way I was able to achieve S-OFF :)

I did the HTC Dev Unlock... then flashed TWRP to my recovery... then copied and flashed Cyanogen Mod to my phone. Once in there? I followed the firewater instructions and it worked for me.

So yeh... anywho? I went to the webpage of the guys who made firewater and the donate link is gone... I dunno, I guess I'll buy Sunshine as a tip I guess even though meow I have S-OFF via firewater lol... hmm, apparently my device fails the Sunshine compatibility test and doesn't give me the option to buy it... oh well.

Now my phone's ID is GOOGL001 and flashed 5.0.1 without issues. Sweet.

Hope that helps anyone with similar issues, especially a Telus version of the phone from Canada eh?

If sunshine doesn't work for ya? Maybe try running Sunshine from Cyanogen mod? The kernel in that doesn't seem to block S-OFF... ElementalX kernel didn't work for me on stock sense 6 tbh.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashish8:
Whats up guys, I'm facing one hell of a dilemma. I purchased a Nexus 5 from craigslist. The person said it was bought from Google. None the less I did a IMEI check on Swappa when I bought it and it came out clean. The person was using it on T-Mobile pre-paid so I went with the hunch that it was not bought on the JUMP program. Unfortunately, at that time they didn't have their sim in the phone so I could see it working on T-Mobile.

Since, I'm on Verizon I couldn't test the phone out in person. The phone is for my mom who is on AT&T. When I popped her SIM in the phone was showing "No Service", despite having the correct AT&T APN. I googled and googled and noticed people were saying the battery cover could affect it. Well this phone has a loose battery on the right side (when looking at the phone with the screen up) so I pushed on the battery cover and still "No Service". Lastly, I flashed the factory images from Google. When the phone booted back up it was still saying "No Service" but then showed empty/gray bars and detected it was on AT&T. Every now and then I might get one blip of white inside the bars, but then it immediately goes back to empty gray bars or "no service". I can't make or receive calls from the phone. Let's not even talk about cellular data.

I called Google, low and behold the phone wasn't purchased from them. Then I called LG and LG said its a T-Mobile phone. By chance do you guys know if T-Mobile sim locks the Nexus 5 when you're making payments? I can't figure out if this phone has bad radios or it has some lock in place by T-Mobile. Is "No Service" or empty gray bars a symptom of carrier lock?

TL;DR: Does T-Mobile sim lock the Nexus 5 when you finance the device from them?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tlopez1973:
My first suggestion would be to check if the phone is blacklisted from this website http://checkesnfree.com/
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Citizen_Snips:
Wait the N5 doesn't have a removable battery, or a cover that comes off. How'd you push it in?

Anyways, I purchased my N5 from T-Mobile directly. After some issues with service in my area I went to an ATT store and asked if I could use it on their network. The rep at the store said yes, it would work, but since they don't actually carry the phone I could not insure it with them. She seemed very confident it wasn't carrier locked which is what I've heard all around. I can't confirm that though, I stayed with T-Mobile.

P.S. Questions belong in the Q+A section, not general.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattyboyo:
I don't think Verizon have approved the n5 for their network. Try a SIM from another operator or call Verizon to confirm.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
the n5 from tmobile is not carrier locked. no nexus 5 are carrier locked. i have had an att sim in my tmobile bought n5, and phone/data signal worked fine.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Citizen_Snips:
Did you even read the thread? He said he couldn't test because he has Verizon. N5 doesn't operate on Verizon. He was asking about ATT... He tried an ATT SIM already and it didn't work.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattyboyo:
Sorry I'll assume the op hasn't been scammed.

Does the phone display an imei and baseband in the about phone section of settings?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashish8:
Guys, I understand it's a unlocked phone. I just want to know if T-Mobile puts a lock on the phone when you finance from them.

Yes, the imei is in the settings and yes its clean.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lokke9191:
Not a smart move, buying a phone from somebody on craigslist without checking to see if it works. No receipt, didn't check to see if it was blacklisted, and it has a loose back cover...Could have faulty hardware, might have water damage, might be blacklisted...lesson learned. Good luck.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vin4yak:
No, they don't. They can blacklist the imei by which you won't be able to use a T-mobile sim. But they can't carrier lock the device.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashish8:
Thanks Vin, then I assume it's a hardware issue. If anyone wants to buy this N5 PM me I just want to cut my losses.

No doubt about that, but I have bought numerous phones from Craigslist, Always for Verizon though. This was my first venture into the GSM realm.

Already checked the moisture sensor in the sim tray and it's white. Like I said earlier I checked the imei at the time of purchase and that was clean as well. My mistake was not having a GSM sim and thus not testing the device

I used both methods, first tried with philz and not start to see that I used fastboot
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
After you flashed the kernel using fastboot, did you then boot into the included recovery and flash the entire zip? That's the usual procedure for flashing a custom kernel, as there are usually files needed for compatibility in the zip.

I just checked the kernel thread and it looks like v25 has been released, so perhaps try that also. ?

Welcome to Shift Kernel

Here we have custom toolchain build Linaro 4.7.4 Aosp custom kernel.

This is based on the Cyanogenmod SMDK4412 updated source.

Kernel uses STweaks which should be installed as a system app with the zip as it's included. If it doesn't just download and install

Starting with 5.0 this kernel supports all AOSP KitKat ROMS for the I777/959G

Downloads: Shift

Also feedback is very welcome. Also I will CONSIDER requests if I find it useful and not too strenuous to implement. Again Enjoy yourself guys!!!!

Thanks goes out to [MENTION=3279788]ZaneZam[/MENTION] for the amazing zzmoove that is included that we all love.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
Just for future reference having this feature activated will cause the battery to discharge at a much higher rate, even when idle. The knock code is optimized for the G2/G3, and while the N5 is based on the G2 it too suffers from battery drain because the screen is always "looking" for the knock.

All that being said, it is a really cool feature. Great job getting your kernel up and running, rogersb!

Going to keep an eye on this thread as you move forward with it. Does this give us the option to set a separate sleep profile from the awake profile in Stweaks? I remember that from using AJK with an old 4.2.2 rom, and it really made a big difference (at least it seemed) in battery life, not running the normal profile when the screen was off, or phone was in deep sleep.

You have a link to the kernel with this feature so I can look for the source? I've never heard of this but sounds nice and possible very useful but I I worry this mat be an issue with the SOD(sleep of death) issue from the AJK kernel. Don't get me wrong, I love his 4.9 kernel but stopped using just for that reason
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TheGeekyNimrod:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2110542

There's the link. I've been running v4.9 ever since I started using CarbonRom (prior to SlimKat). Never had SOD issues. Maybe because of the profile I used or the way I tuned it. AJK took some getting used to with all the available options. I don't know how advanced it is to implement in a kernel though. I imagine it's no easy task. I could do it now using SETcpu, but I just prefer Stweak, hints why I asked about the option.

I wish I knew more about kernel building to help implement some requests, but it's beyond my knowledge. That's why I leave it to all you fine folks. :)
