i might still but i got it to work.

I did nothing different.

Power cycled etc.

This time i turned the screen off waited ten seconds and it buzzed during it. Turned it off a second time and when i came back it showed good????

I repeated what I have been doing over and over and this time it worked.

You still want a ticket?

Edit did not S OFF LOL time to mess with it some more.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcase:
S-OFF/LOCKED is the same as S-OFF/UNLOCKED on the HTC 10 (With sunshine), so you are unlocked. If you want it to say unlocked, you could change your cid and use htvdev.com or you could go s-on and use sunshine picking the unlocked option, but both would wipe your phone.

Yes please submit a ticket, im guessing you have some app intereferring with wakelocks or something
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] TotallyAnxious:
Ah okay, thanks!

Can you walk through what you did? It's not working for me.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] TailsDROID:
Thank you for clarifying this! Just booted my VZW 10 for the final time setting up root, xposed, busybox, etc...I couldn't be happier, S-OFF "Locked" and everything is working flawlessly! This is the day I've been waiting for with this phone. :fingers-crossed::angel:

Edit: If anyone needs any help with (understanding)/what to do after using SunShine PM me! :)
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] willjohnson:
Thanks for the response, i found it. Got the app and now unlocking. I gotta say this was the first phone i bought thinking i would never be able to root(after switching back to Verizon). Since its for my business i started i didnt think i would mess with it anyway... man have i missed it. Thanks guys for making it such a easy process.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
lol no it says locked and S on still.

but after i got it to work the first time. I have gotten it to work consistently for 3 tries now.

letting it do its thing now but ill submit the ticket for your data anyways.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] TailsDROID:
That feel when you accidentally wipe dalvik/cache and your phone takes 20 minutes to boot
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] polaric:
Anyone who needs some assistance can also send me a PM or quote this post so I get a notification, that way [MENTION=2376614]jcase[/MENTION] can relax for a bit. I'll also intermittently check the thread. Here are some common questions and answers so people can just link this post

S-Off/LOCKED will NOT wipe data, but you are still unlocked, still can flash twrp, still can flash ROMS. S-Off/UNLOCKED will say unlocked and WILL wipe data.

As soon as you see the message telling you to lock your phone, do so and turn off the screen, wait about 10 second, and turn it back on. The vibration is to remind to you lock the phone.

To install twrp, grab the twrp-pme image from the twrp website, put the phone in the bootloader, and from a computer connected to it, use fastboot flash recovery twrp.img to flash twrp.

Happy tinkering!

Question: if I go into Verizon to upgrade whenever I see fit to upgrade, is there a method to make it full stock or will it be visible (root check?). I just don't wanna mess with doing this only to find out my warranty is no good through Verizon anymore. Thanks!! :)
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] polaric:
All you have to do is flash a stock RUU, and go s-on. I had a m8 and did the same thing when I gave it back to them.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] lancespahr:
Perfect :) thanks so much!
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aleggsue:
This is also important. If you have any root-dependent apps on your phone form backups or google transfer, you need to uninstall them otherwise it will hang at "Please wait..."

Might want to add that to OP.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcase:
If you have ANY root apps, like SuperSu, Superuser, Titanimum backup etc, please uninstall them. I will address this is 3.4.1. Most likely SuperSu isn't liking the way we are gaining root. They can be installed again after SunShine
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aleggsue:
when trying to install twrp for some reason, it hangs at [waiting for device]. adb works fine, and I have fastboot drivers. What would make it not work?
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] thefever:
Thanks so much for this. I'm glad you guys were able to get it packaged up. I'm already up and running with SuperSU installed. Now if I can just find the edits to disable that annoying ass WiFi notification nag and the device wipe policy.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] TotallyAnxious:
Install HTC sync manager, and keep it close after installation. Boot to the bootloader, then to download mode. Do "fastboot devices", confirm it shows a device then flash twrp

It's a driver issue. HTC sync manager installs one.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] bakemcbride21:
I'll be doing a full wipe and going with Viper ROM once I am Sunshined....so I imagine I may as well go the S-OFF Unlocked route that wipes everything anyway? It's semantics but I like having it say unlocked lol

And I am correct in saying that once I flash Viper ROM their SUperSU will replace the temproot from the Sunshine app?

Good to know about root dependent apps...I have some installed I'll need to get rid of first.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] LakesideWiseman:
Thanks for all your hard work jcase and beaupps. I will be buying sunshine when i get home today and am excited to see what i can do with root. So glad you guys got this handled. I was just about to mail in my phone! First order of business is getting this wifi hotspot working on my udp plan!

[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aleggsue:
I followed your instructions verbatim, but fastboot devices just doesn't seem to do anything and proceeds to just creat a new prompt line like it completed or something?

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img still hangs
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcase:
what output does fastboot devices give you?

What OS are you using?

USB 2 or usb3 port?

Can you try another cable?

Can you try another port?

Can you try another pc
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aleggsue:
It doesn't give any response just goes to a new line

Intel based MacBook running Windows 7 Pro

Usb3 I believe but will check

Will try new cable/port/PC when I get home

[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] lancespahr:
Sunshine successfully worked :) now to install twrp and root!
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] polaric:
If you have OSX on the MacBook pro, try running fastboot from OSX with sudo so it runs as root. Make sure the phone is sitting at the bootloader as well.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] pball52998:

New build coming later today that will fix some issues, including the "i cant reinstall bug"

Bad news on the cant reinstall bug, if it doesnt go away with a few reboots, you wont be able to install sunshine again without a factory reset.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Evocm7:
Not really size, it's already almost a 100mb apk, they just have to figure out how to add their exploits into the app and make it all automated vs manually entering the commands. I'm no developer, but I'm sure it's not an easy task.

---------- Post added at 06:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:29 AM ----------

Don't think you'd even get that long of an answer. If they have the exploit, it's only a matter of time until they add it to the apk. I haven't seen anything specific, but from what it sounds like, they did find a way without Java card or clip. I could be wrong

Lol can we pay the $25 and they send us the secret formula to unlockimg the bootloader.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] thegrants82:
Same here. Shipping it off is a little risky and extreme. Hoping that someone with a different method steps up soon.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] polaric:
It wouldn't be a half bad idea to charge extra for a early not-done yet release of sunshine that requires a little more user work, for those of us like me that are impatient.

Added a link to the mail in.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Evocm7:
Yeah I'm not really afraid to get into complicated processes for s-off. Remember the rezound and taking a wire to two jumpers on the back? That's scary but I did it lol. I don't blame them for not wanting to release the exploits. Then it could get passed around

I say let's pray for an update very soon to our Xtc2clips to unlock and s-off our HTC 10's it's only a matter of time then the s-off xtc2clip network of unlockers will be back to freeing our devices :) we have a network of clips users all across the USA I say just bring it please please please get the S-off unlock update pushed out to our Xtc2clips !!!!

Talked to the xtc dev the other day--said he's working on it (I have a clip too)...but honestly, I'm pulling harder for [MENTION=2376614]jcase[/MENTION] to get a software solution out there as I've noticed that the quality and quantity of development seems to go hand-in-hand with the number of people rooted

[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcase:
3.4.2 released, should make temproot more reliable.

Those that cant reinstall the apk after uninstalling, please reboot 2/3 times and see if that clears it up, if not you will have to factory reset to install sunshine. We did fix the issue (i hope), it was quite rare and hard to reproduce.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] jweber228:
Just want to say thanks to jcase and beaups. I jumped on it last night and got SOFF with no problem. 10/10 would buy again!

no luck

:(........

Got my M10 today.... only app I install it was speed test.... after that I download sunshine v 3.4.2 from http://theroot.ninja/download.html .... it fails for me trying to get temp root.

I'm with verizon and yes i did shut off the screen after 3 seconds like the app request...

Sunshine is always been good to me, used in a least 5 different phones and this is the first one it fails.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcase:
submit a ticket for me, with all this info, you can also try a factory reset

So known issues with 3.4.2:

For the release firmware (htc/HTCOneM10vzw/htc_pmewl:6.0.1/MMB29M/735218.9:user/release-keys) our temproot is busted, we are working on fixing it. Solution to this problem, take the OTA (htc/HTCOneM10vzw/htc_pmewl:6.0.1/MMB29M/749324.22:user/release-key), then use sunshine.

If you are on the OTA and root is failing, then this means you need a factory reset right now, we are looking into this issue.

ok.... then maybe I should OTA to 1.19.605.22; because mine is 1.19.605.9..........

That might be the problem....

Let me try

---------- Post added at 04:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 AM ----------

Confirm!!!! Success after the OTA update to 1.19.605.22

Now I need to be permanently S-OFF .... install TWRP, etc ...

question I should pick S-OFF /LOCKED, right?

---------- Post added at 05:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:44 AM ----------

uuurrrgggg!!

I pick S-OFF LOCKED..... but phone keeps rebooting.... sunshine says "your device is being unlocked/s-off....." then phone reboots; sunshine opens again and the same process repeats..... going to bed now.... will be back tomorrow

factory reset it then
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tybaltus Prime:
How long should I leave screen off during temp root? Instructions say 3 after vibration starts... However when I count three and come back it still vibrates...?if I leave it off it begins vibrating after about 5 secs of screen off. I I have screen set to lock on off. Process takes much longer so should I be leaving screen off for the duration of the script? Otherwise I've failed thrice, but this could be user error. I'm on .22 FW. Any help is appreciated.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] polaric:
The vibration is just to remind you to pay attention. Leave the screen off for about 10 seconds.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] sgtslaughter64:
I've followed the instructions and it appears that root was installed, however, Root Checker says root was not installed correctly. Root apps cant access root. Any suggestions?
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] polaric:
Sunshine doesn't install root for you, it gains s-off. All you have to do for root is flash TWRP and then flash super SU
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] sgtslaughter64:
I have flashed TWRP successfully and Super SU, now i am stuck in a boot loop. Any suggestions would be great.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aleggsue:
How did you go about doing that? I've never had this many problems with recovery and I'm used to safestrap.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] disconnecktie:
You flashed an old version of supersu. Flash a newer version and you should be fine.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] bakemcbride21:
Have run twice...gotten temproot both times...selected S-OFF/Locked...on reboot waited for sunshine to comlpete as stated....it popped up again did its thing again and rebooted the phone....but when I reboot to my bootloader it still says S-On...

Peculiar...
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] androiddude81:
Sunshine temproot is not working for me. During the vibrate screen off phase do I turn it off and on every time it vibrates, just do it once, or leave the screen off the whole time?

Is there another method for temp root. Just got the HTC 10 and I have stock with version 1.19.605.9.

Edit: Apparently I need to upgrade to 1.19.605.22. Is that correct? Just hesitant since usually you are stuck on a higher version not a lower version.

Edit2: Upgrading to 1.19.605.22 worked for me. I now have S-OFF. Thanks for the help.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] bakemcbride21:
It is recommended to take the OTA to .22 and then try SunShine (from a few posts/pages back).
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] androiddude81:
Ahh. I had just read that. Thanks for confirming. Will do
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] bakemcbride21:
3rd time's the charm...lol It powered down the phone after the first reboot, did it's extra special sunshineiness as it should then powered down the phone (as opposed to doing a 2nd reboot)

Phone encrypted after Sunshine process... don't have password

So I did the process what felt like a few times over, then when I finally was at the point where it (seemed) everything went well. I powered on my phone after it was shut down and a "Your phone is encrypted" message came up. In order to de-crypt my device I need to enter my pin screen lock password, except the problem is I used a finger print/pattern. What to do??

[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcase:
3.4.3 is out

Greater compatibility with the HTC 10 temproot, all Verizon firmwares tested and working.

Temproot is known to work on all Verizon firmwares,

If you are on verizon and it is failing, then you will need to factory reset.

Temproot is known to work on current us unlocked firmware, untested on others

Temproot is untested on 1.90.xxx.xx international firmware.

There is a notice at first run about this, if you go S-OFF/LOCKED from S-ON/LOCKED your device wont need wiping, any other configuration and you will need to wipe.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] lancespahr:
I'm curious, what's the difference between S-OFF/Locked and Unlocked? Or is there a difference?
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] androiddude81:
Once you have S-Off you can unlock the bootloader at anytime (right???), but it will force you to wipe your device when you do.

P.S. Is there a known echo command that will switch the bootloader flag to Unlocked. I have the command for the M8, but it's probably not the same.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] andybones:
I'd not use an m8 cmd unless you want a brick...

P. S. From sunshine website.

Version 3.4

HTC 10 TempRoot added

Verizon HTC 10 support added (to app!)

No wipe/format for HTC 10 (when choosing S-OFF/LOCKED)

S-OFF/LOCKED will behave as S-OFF/UNLOCKED on HTC 10
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] 4rsenal:
Yea no biggie... but I did use Root Checker to see if I had root and it came back a negative for root.. Should it say I do have root? This is right after I set up my phone after it was wiped.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aleggsue:
Not until you flash SuperSU.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcase:
First dialog when you run the app tells you S-OFF/LOCKED will not require a wipe, but S-OFF/Unlocked will.

SunShine only unlocks/s-off the phone, you still have to flash twrp and then supersu for root
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] lancespahr:
Is there any practical difference, or do they both have the same abilities/functions?

So with s-off, I can flash the Unlocked 10 firmware on my Verizon 10 and have all the supported bands that the Unlocked 10 supports? I'm using a Verizon 10 but I'm actually in Canada.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcase:
According to the docs ive read, the bands are identical, but yes you can s-off, change the CID and flash the unlocked/dev ruu and everything should work, may need to clear the modemst partitions
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tarima:
OK thanks for the info. There are a couple LTE bands missing from the 10 on Verizon's website compared to HTC.com. Maybe it's just a question of re-enabling them through software.

I'll get to firmware flashing later, my main focus now is to get rid of the gimped Verizon OS and install ViperRom, so I'll be getting Sunshine for that.
