This is for those using the XTC clip, NOT for those using alpharev. AlphaRev users will not need to do this.

(Always check the md5sum first)
Download this file, and save it to the root (/) of your sdcard.
run
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
choose the bootloader option (if available) and allow the IMG to flash. Reboot, delete PG32IMG.zip and you are ready to use fastboot and recovery.
Attn1 built this recovery from CWR repos.
This is what it will look like when your done (actually the version number will be 0.96 until i update the zip)

Works like a charm, running great, DEF download the GB ROM he cooked up, very stable.
just ordered a clip so just preparing for when it comes.
when you say to run that command - adb reboot bootloader,
where exactly are we running that? in a command prompt with phone hooked up to the computer?

pm me. I can explain it to you.
I might be reading wrong, but it seems to load recovery is the same as we usually do on the Inc once S-OFF is achieved. Copy the downloaded PB31IMG to the root of the SD Card, power the phone off, then power back up with the Volume Down and Power Button Method. The phone should look for the new PB31IMG on the SD Card and start the installation automatically.
Is that correct?

if that's the case, then I can probably do it ....that is where bootloader auto-recognizes the file and asks if you want to flash update...right?
I still am a bit unsure of myself using the xtc clip though. Got spoiled with one-click root!
If I'm right, this is very similar and shouldn't be a problem at all. I'll see about ordering my clip tonight soon as I make sure it is the supported software from the seller and will get it on the way. I'm getting the one credit but believe it can be renewed. Not sure what the top off amount is. If so, you're welcome to the clip when I'm done if the other is still a ways out.

jcase,
is it required to do your steps in order to flash back to the STOCK SHIPPING software via RUU? or can i just xtc / run ruu?
thanks again man. you and a few other guys have been a pure godsend on this site so far !
Quick question and i know it's not the place for it. Hypothetically could we root with xtc clip and do this would it be the same as alpharev s work and would there me any benefit to using one over the other? Any way to s-on after xtc clip?
Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk
XTC clip FULL NAND S-OFF, will never turn back to S-ON. alpha I think you can get back to S-ON but idk. but XTC clip your S-OFF for the remainder of the phone.

i hate when they do come back, but ask the same question right after you gave them a perfectly good answer.
everything is worse in paragraphs as well.
Please help me.
1. I was S-off.
2. Then I went flashed a recovery PC316img and went to stock. Then I downloaded the 4.22 GB update.
3. Now with the update we are locked out of the bootloader and you cant hit the volume down button and power button and pull up the boot loader. I even tried to to do the one click unrevoked and it wont let you go into bootloader sequence.
Am I screwed or is there a way to reflash to a previous version the 3.70 update? If so I will do it.
Here's my bounty. I will paypal 50 bucks to anyone who can help me flash to a previous version before Gingerbread so I can be unrevoked.
Thanks,
Mark
PS I was messing around with my phone and I was able to get it to go into some kind of Safe Mode that showed up on the screen and I even took pics of it. But I dont think that will help me...

Just flash the same PC36IMG you had to begin with. Put it on sd card, pull battery and then hold vol down + power.
turn off the fastboot option. it's somewhear in there so once you find it uncheck, and your boots will be normal speed (no longer superfast) but you can get into bootloader.
Go to settings, applications, and uncheck fastboot. Flash my linked file (amin_ra 2.3) from bootloader. Reboot into recovery and wipe and flash as you usually would.

Thanks guys. It worked. I unchecked fast boot, and was able to get to the boot loader screen and then flashed PC316img and it took me back three updates and then I simply updated to 3.70 and used Unrevoked and wireless tehther. I'll try to find a way to work out loading the new update and then adding unrevoked again and wireless tether...I just want to keep wireless tether I dont care about Gingerbread right now. Hopefully someone will come up with a way to load a form of GB without having to lose wireless tether and unrevoked....?

Heya. I've been browsing the forums back and forth and I wasn't able to find the specific answer I wanted for my question. Here goes:
First of all: Great program!
I have a HTC Desire running 2.2.2. I’ve been running Unrevoked 3.32.
I get the following error message ““Error: failed to get root. Is your firmware too new?”
So, my question is. Do I have to downgrade my firmware? Or will there be a new version of Unrevoked that supports 2.2.2 any time soonish?
Or Might I in fact be doing something wrong?
I know about revolutionary.io but that doesn't seem to give me root access, which was what I really wanted.
I heard about this amazing program, for the first time, to days ago. Ever since I’ve been really curious and impatient about getting root access.
So, in your experiences eyes, what should I do?
Sincerely
Naggert
If you got revolutionary to work but didn't have root, then why not just download superuser app on the market?
I never tried installing revolutionary since the forum said I wouldn't give me root access. Thought it might cause more problems if I had to remove it again and all...
But you're saying it's possible to use revolutionary and then download "superuser" app from Android market? I mean, that would totally solve my problem :O
EDIT:
Been looking on Android market. It seems like superuser requires root access.. So that won't work, if revolutionary doesn't grant root access, right?
Revolutionary will give you s-off. You can practically do anything afterwards. Just read up before you go do the actual process.
Ah.. Yeah currently I have s-on...
Hm. I will most likely try and install revolutionary once I get back home from work. However I don't think it will work with the root access and all...
Superuser is the first app a user should install after rooting, if the rooting method didn't do it already. "Rooting" a phone allows a user to establish total control over the device, but Superuser is the app that provides the button for that control. With Superuser installed, any app that needs root privileges to run will have to ask permission, and an informative pop-up will display with the option to give it those privileges. This app is an absolute must for any of the other apps on the list to even run.

Read this. http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/revolutionary
Specifically read question #4 on the Common Problems & Questions section.
Hm.. See that makes my heart beat a little faster! Thank you so far... Think I'll spend the last half hour at work, playing with this little tool.
Thanks for your guidance so far! I will report back once my telephone is totally broken
Sure no problem. I've used unrevoked and never had the chance revolutionary so hopefully everything would run smoothly. As i've said earlier read up
Depending on how much tweaking you'll do with your phone, you'll eventually would want to s-off your phone anyway. Good luck.
I made it work!!!
Getting the revolutionary beta key was really hard! :O All those I / l and = 0 / O 's...
I tossed it [NIGHTLY][ROM][GWK74] CyanogenMod 7 for vendor Bravo (HTC Desire GSM)
So far it's running smoothly. Phone contacts have been loaded and I'm currently copying all my old music and photos back over on the phone!
Only thing tho... No android marked... Guess I have to do a little reading on this.
Cyanogenmod doesn't include the market app but you can flash it or manually copy the apk to the /system/app folder since you are s-off. Just dont forget to change the permissions.
Flash google apps

Yeah I see this quite a lot... Still not sure how to... I think I've installed Android Marked but I get an error.

Says I'm supposed to add an account to the unit. If I press "yes" it just closes back to the previous screen.
EDIT:
Btw I made dir called: system/app/vending.apk
I think it's installed correctly

Revolutionary fixed it for me too!
Running android 2.2.2 on HTC Desire, did eveything unrevoked told me, and then found this thread, revolutionary finally gave me S-OFF
Thanks!
Okay guys, I have a question, too!
So, I bought a used Desire (though the only sigh that it was used are a couple of schratches on the covers) and I just thought a good thing would be to root it...
So, revolutionary did its thing just about 5 mins. ago... Hooray, I have S-OFF!
But how the heck do I get it rooted with the stock ROM? I don't want to lose any data on it (although the only valuable data is the Temple Run savegame)...
I only need root to repartition my SDcard so apps could be installed there...
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Hey Fellas, i used Revolution to root my phone, i have since put many roms on my phone, the rom i currently have is shooter sense 3.0....i love the ROM its awesome, i am in a 4G coverage area and my 4G just says scanning but never connects, just says scannning, so i restored back to some stock rooted rom that i d/l online, 4g still doesnt work. so i then d/l the latest radio by Caulking or whatever, and still no 4G, just says scanning, oi am now back to the shooter sense 3.0 rom and still no 4G, and im in a 4G coverage area, how do i fix this?
Just used WiMAX RSa key checker, says my keys are there
Reset to factory RUU using the supersonic RUU utility, on the hboot screen it still says s-off and revolutionary at the top...Sole Conslusion is that this phone, per revolutionary CANNOT be unrooted, now that i have the bone stock rom on my evo, the 4G doesnt work, i know this because on the stock evo rom, while searching for 4g you get in the top left part of the screen it states "4G!" which means there is no 4G, well that little symbol is not on the top the screen in either my new rom or the stock rom, stating something is wrong with my 4G...i think i have a unique situation that i need to be fixed...and i cannot find a fix for this
just updated to a new rom, sinister Rom, with the aggressive freedom kernel, says 4G is scanning, still, so what i did, i went and downloaded a stock kernel and used it on my sinsiter Rom, then is said "4G not working" so i put the Freedom kernel back, and now it says 4G scanning, but still no "4G!" symbol in the top left....
oh and 4G mac acddress is good too, just checked it.
where do i go now? i've tried everything
Look Here

Look between 1:08 and 1:20 to know what i am talking about, in reference to the "4G!" symbol

from goo.im, click save as and save it to the sdcard that you will put back in your phone (left me know if this is what you are doing). I have never recieved that error, so trying to figure out what you are doing that could be causing this. Other thing I would recommend just in case is from the download page, scroll all the way down and download the bottom zip.

Great news that you found that! disabling that will let you download the ruu and you should be golden.
Edit: if you are turning it in, it really doesn't matter, but the most current is 4.67 as I have not recieved the newest update and goo.im doesn't have it either.

I have what you need in my sig in the unrooting instructions.
And yeah, you shouldn't be unzipping the file .
The 4.54 or 4.67 versions should work fine.
is there an exploit for hboot 1.57.0000 to s-off this phone?? tia
Not yet.
You can s-off hboot 1.57.0000 by firewater

Unless you're on the OTA that includes Sense 6 and the like. Then you're still SOL until someone releases a new exploit.
is there someone working on this actively, or did those people move to the m8

Haven't seen or heard any posts abount an m7 exploit popping out of the wood work. Jcase even said he wont burn another until more than one phone needs the exploit. Rock and a hard place since towelroot works on the m8. Still hoping he'll update sunshine to support the new m7 update since that route actually makes them money.

First of all, JCase said he wouldn't burn another ROOT until another phone needs it (btw, there is a working temp root on the M7, if you're not aware), not an S-OFF or booloader unlock. and second of all:

That's exactly what I said, nigh word for word. Temp root is pointless without the ability to S-Off. Only good news comes from that twitter post.
you guys are talking about 2 different things.
ROOT VS S-OFF
although there isn't a new Root method, firewater works for S-off on Hboot 1.57

don't you need to have root in order to s-off?

But without root, firewater doesn't work. ("SU or FU!" it says.)
So, they are pretty much interlinked, sadly.
And no, there is not a working root, temp or otherwise, for the Verizon M7 if you have the Sense 6 OTA. Towelroot does not work. WeakSauce does not work. "temproot" does not work. So, there is no way to S-off, unlock the bootloader, etc, etc. Basically, if you want to do anything such as install CM (which is what I want to do), you are S-O-L for the time being.

Actually using towelroot to temproot does currently work, but everything else is patched so that doesn't change the fact that Sense 6 users are still SOL

Didn't work for me. It acted like it did work, but using root checker indicated that root failed.
And yeah like you said, doesn't matter, still no way to S-off or unlock the bootloader, so ... stuck.

Yeah, tap the banner 3 times and then change the last 0 to 1? It acts like it works, but root checker says no root.
