[HTC Desire 510] KrankyMadCap:
I also contacted HTC concerning this phone shortly ago and had a lengthy conversation with a nice young lady named Lea/Leah....something along those lines. I can understand everyone's frustration with this not being the 64 bit variant of this phone and so I tried to express this to her. Honestly we have all been mislead by the publicity surrounding this phone and assumed we were getting what was publicized. On this note I'd love to know what the reviewers were using for a phone when they reviewed the 510 in both Canada and the USA. Were they sent the 64 bit model to add to the North American confusion concerning the variant? So HTC publicizes the "first 64 bit android phone" and then sneaks into North America with a plain old nothing out of the ordinary 32 bit variant. They list on their own website for Canada and USA the exact specs for the North American variant. So there is no "false advertising" technically. There is just alot of confusion and alot of people who are buying this phone thinking its the snapdragon 410 when they eventually discover its a snapdragon 400.
[HTC Desire 510] acesavant00:
Smh this is sorely disappointing. At this point, I am only keeping this phone because it is receiving Android L, and in the hopes that this phone may get rooted. Otherwise, I'd ask Virgin Mobile to see if they could send me another version, with the proper 410 processor.
[HTC Desire 510] jmz:
I have one on the way to me. Will be here Wednesday. I will get a few things cooked up for you guys.
[HTC Desire 510] KrankyMadCap:
That would be very much appreciated. Where are you getting your 510 from? is it going to be the x32 or x64 chipset? Without having an Ruu to pull recovery from how are you looking to develop for this device at this time?

Looking forward to any development concerning the 510.

I'd love to get an active CM12 branch for this device as well as an AOSP build of 5.0.
[HTC Desire 510] jmz:
VM so prolly the 32-bit. Don't need ruu. Just need root.
[HTC Desire 510] KrankyMadCap:
So the question is how are you attaining root? As far as I've gathered there is no method for this currently? Just curious what your approach to this device is. I understand you only need root but it has been assumed that we'd need to wait until a RUU was released to attain that. You undoubtedly are knowledgeable about this so I'm curious.
[HTC Desire 510] jmz:
Well Sunshine **should** technically work. If not I can get with the dev to see if it can be done. We will go from there
[HTC Desire 510] jeffhutch.412:
i ran mine on art for a week and was laaaagy :eek: bummer!
[HTC Desire 510] LarryBoyG:
I don't even have ART on mine...
[HTC Desire 510] jeffhutch.412:
Sunshine is simply for unlock & s0ff [emoji25] it only temporary roots to do it's thing....

Somebody with some time try mod string combos in towel root [emoji2]

Tap welcome 3 times and a string comes up

1337 0 1 0 4 0 (default)

*yes spaces between the last 5 digits*

1337 don't change (just pretend it's not there for a min)

1st space- value 0-3 (method)

2nd- value 0-1 (align)

3rd- value 0-8191 (limit_offset)

4th- value 0-7 (hit_iov)

5th- value 0-1 (temp root)

Method and align are the best bet at success.. I've tried quite a few and haven't had any luck.

Example- 1337 1 1 0 4 0 or 1137 3 0 0 4 0 or 1137 2 1 0 7 0

The last digit is 0= perm 1= temp

Even if we got temp, we could use sunshine, dump recovery img and possibly not throw the phone in the street like a set of spike strips [emoji38]

The no lose root via adb to a tmp then rebooting to recovery and moving su to system with nautilus on ubuntu. ... Doesn't work [emoji15]

Anybody think this phone just sucks?

No cam flash

No autofocus

No nfc

No x64

I want my one sv back!

Jk haha

But no I'm being serious.

[HTC Desire 510] jmz:
Ok? Sunshine gives you temp root and s-off. Then dump boot and recovery, mod boot.img for perm root, and recovery.img for building a recovery. its not that hard
[HTC Desire 510] jeffhutch.412:
Sunshine doesn't work. When that's the case, you use towel root to temp root and allow sunshine to work... According to their instructions

Didn't realize it wasn't that hard. Or is it?....

[HTC Desire 510] jeffhutch.412:
You must not be trying hard enough. He said it's pretty easy [emoji122]
[HTC Desire 510] jmz:
Well, I will look into it when the device arrives.
[HTC Desire 510] acesavant00:
That's refreshing to hear that we might be acquiring root soon.

On another note, what exactly is the RUU? I'm assuming it must be a software source, or some rooted version of the stock software.
[HTC Desire 510] KrankyMadCap:
Any progress with the 510 is good to hear. Hopefully jmz and his contacts can acquire root and dump the recovery for this phone and then we'd be on our way with it.

In the mean time as to answer the RUU question, this post sums it up http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/13446/what-is-an-ruu
[HTC Desire 510] acesavant00:
Thank you! So from what I can gather, acquiring the RUU would give developers the base from which roms could be constructed? Either that, or it allows the developer to get accustomed with how to build a rom/recovery for that particular device.

Also, would any of you guys know when Android L will be released for this device? I read somewhere that the update would not be released to this device until May/June. I can only hope that I was misinformed.
[HTC Desire 510] KrankyMadCap:
From what I can gather, as I'm no expert on this either, we can get the recovery partition from the RUU file and use that to make a custom recovery like CWP or TWRP. Once that is done then we could push SU to the phone and have root. The hope is that with a little dev magic we get root or temp root to the phone and can pull the recovery from the phone before a RUU surfaces. Otherwise we are waiting for HTC and an RUU.

As far as Android 5.0L I also heard May/June but it wouldn't surprise me if there are 2 entirely different release dates one for the 32 bit variant and one for the 64 bit variant. Only time will tell.
[HTC Desire 510] acesavant00:
Dang, that means we're gonna be waiting for a while for Android L. I pray that the root situation is resolved, then. These storage issues are really a thorn in my side right now. 3.75 outta 4.11 GB, plus I can't uninstall any of the bloatware -_-
[HTC Desire 510] LarryBoyG:
This would be so much easier with S-off.
[HTC Desire 510] acesavant00:
This really would be much easier with S-Off. Doesn't make any sense that this 32-bit variant is so difficult to develop root for. Especially since, in essence, the software and hardware are both outdated. Maybe there's some factor that's being overlooked.
[HTC Desire 510] LarryBoyG:
Well it does have the new kernel. Maybe outdated hardware coupled with a new kernel has something to do with locking down root for this phone.
[HTC Desire 510] acesavant00:
Good point. Maybe comparing the new kernel to other HTC device kernels would be the key. Honestly, Im spitballing here lol. Between this, and waiting for Liquidsmooth to release a Lollipop build for my Epic Touch my thumbs are twiddling. The tweaking instinct is strong within me.
[HTC Desire 510] Burtrum57:
How can I tell if I have the 32 bit or 64 bit variant?
[HTC Desire 510] KrankyMadCap:
If your from Australia then you have the 64 bit variant. Best bet is to go directly to HTC's website for your region and look up the phone specs. Alternatively you can use CPU-Z on your phone and then check if the chipset is the snapdragon 400 or 410.
[HTC Desire 510] jmz:
Can I get 2 people? One that has an untouched recovery partition. This means you haven't tried flashing random stuff to recovery. But be bootloader unlocked. And another that is UL user. That means if you are 32-bit and not on USA CDMA carrier you are good. Both can be the same person, doesn't matter. PM me.
[HTC Desire 510] jmz:
So yeah I will just leave this here

[HTC Desire 510] Inside 4ndroid:
by the looks of it someone has done a bad flash and there is nothing on it, this will need a full firmware reflashing to get it working again...

there is nothing you can do until we get root and then roms will be eventually available for you to flash..

will it boot into stock recovery??
[HTC Desire 510] Twisted714:
yes it will
[HTC Desire 510] jmz:
I have no idea. We can test it if you pm me your hangouts. If it doesn't I can build one specifically for 64bit

This will work the boost mobile version too correct? I've been waiting patiently for root. The whole having no memory has been killing me. Thank you so much for the work you've done!

could you help me out and point me in the right direction so I can root my phone Using your recovery?
[HTC Desire 510] LarryBoyG:
UH OH

I think i may have messed up here. I was in that crowd that got there recovery messed up with the 816 recovery. So my bootloader got relocked (before the custom recovery today) actually its been relocked for a while with tampered above it. Does that mean I'm screwed for getting TWRP on this thing. It still boots (thankfully) but it when I try to flash it says "remote signature verify fail". I'm guessing thats because its relocked. What do I do if there is anything i can do. I'm also doing this on a mac.
[HTC Desire 510] Inside 4ndroid:
have you tried doing the unlock via htc dev again and then flashing?? or if you have the original oem_key.bin (or simular) you can just run the oem unlock again via fastboot.
[HTC Desire 510] LarryBoyG:
I still have the unlock token but I can't use it without a stock recovery. It just freezes after it asks me if I wish to unlock the bootloader at that point I need to pull the battery for the phone to go back to normal. Phone still says tampered and re locked. And I don't think I can even push a stock recovery if my bootloader is locked :(
[HTC Desire 510] KrankyMadCap:
The token is done through fastboot isnt it? Unless the fancy part where you have to accept your unlock on the screen involves recovery. I could be mistaken.
[HTC Desire 510] LarryBoyG:
You accept it then it stalls because the device needs wiped which is done through recovery.

[HTC Desire 510] PHRuiz:
Hi guys

Its very nice to see you guys working on this phone

Well here is my history:

I bought this phone, to use it as everithing else but as a phone, because its 30USD on bestbuy. the thing is that this is a virgin mobile version. So i dont think that it can run over any GSM network, however i dont know if this version has a working SIM slot, because if it does, then I would ask the same my friend vchoudhary asked.

Because it was so cheap that even if it doesnt work as a phone in my country (Colombia carrier: Claro GSM GPRS:850 4g:band 7 LTE 2500) i dont care, I mean thats what you pay in here for a Nokia 1100 stile phone and I was looking for a nice device for my kids. So any help on this topic would be truly aprecciated.

[HTC Desire 510] deckard0:
I picked up this phone for $30 on BF. I love the phone so far but I only have about 15mb of usable storage after installing a few apps. This is unacceptable! I didn't realize this was a 4gb phone but price is hard to argue. I have a 32gb SD card installed for music and some apps but not all apps can be installed to SD. HTC's website says there is an 8gb version so how do we get that version? Should I even bother calling HTC? :) Also, when I look at storage on internal ROM, 3gb is taken up by "Other". Assuming this is OS and bloat. Anyway to lower this? Will it take root to remove bloatware?

Thanks for any help.

"Hello,

My name is Linda K, a Sprint eChat specialist in receipt of the email you sent in requesting information on your HTC Desire 510 working in Australia. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to assist you today.

Your HTC Desire 510 does not have a SIM card. Australia uses the wireless GSL European wireless network which requires the use of SIM cards. Your device is not compatible with that network as it does not use a SIM card and will not hold one. I am sorry, there is nothing that you can do to make your phone work in Australia.

Where did you find the blue one? Where would i find. Other ROMS. Ave kernels for the 64 bit htc desire 510
[HTC Desire 510] dip_spit:
Dude, you seriously need to chill, spamming these forums will get you nowhere. The more you spam, the less interest people have in helping you.

Firstly [MENTION=4032323]Kolma[/MENTION] was talking about getting a blue HTC Desire 510. Not a blue ROM. Secondly, there are no other ROMS currently available for this device besides the modified stock ROMS and the Cyanogenmod 11 ROM that are all found in the 510 Android Development forums on this board, of which you can't flash any of.

Right now, the only thing available to you is [MENTION=4694870]rbheromax[/MENTION]'s stock rooted kernel, or [MENTION=1398545]Thestealth2[/MENTION]'s TheDreamer kernel.

To my knowledge there are only TWO 510 64bit devs. Also, right now everything is pretty much at a standstill and has been for weeks. Nothing is happening with CM 11 or 12, I can't take any time to work on PAC as my schedule has blown up, a couple of users are working on modified stock ROMS, and [MENTION=3990075]Pattyboi[/MENTION] is working his kernel. However none of this means anything for you because you apparently have the 64bit version.

Regardless, like I said: bumping, replying to yourself multiple times, editing your posts again and again, posting the same questions in every thread, and repeatedly asking devs the same questions that they haven't/won't respond to will not get you anywhere. It will only further seek to annoy. I don't mean this offensively, rudely, inconsiderately, whatever. None of us devs are paid by anyone on this forum, much less this forum itself. This is completely volunteer work and the majority of us are working alone. We have lives that we live and we don't check this forum every couple hours and sometimes not even every day. I'm pretty sure that some devs have walked away from the 510, others have temporarily stepped out of the light, some are busy, and some work simply in the shadows and you won't hear from them until they have something to drop. Progress-wise this device is pretty much dead right now (and I assume even more so for the 64bit), that's not to say there won't be a revival but as of right now--this moment--it's a rock.

I apologize if you feel shafted by all this, however this is the research you should have done before purchasing the device, I simply cannot stress that enough to people.
