although it doesnt say this when unlocking the phone, it does however say in their warranty statement that the warranty is still intact for problems not caused by unlocking the bootloader. feel free to check it out..
not to say you won't have to argue with them to get a free repair, but if you persisted you should be able to get it
i had to wait until couple of days ago to root (had hox since launch) as i've been waiting to get the phone actually fixed first from wifi issues etc so hopefully won't actually need the warranty now.. and IF the worst happened and there was no way i could get htc to repair without conning me, then vodafone would repair themselves under the seller warranty. failing all of that, then i could just claim on insurance i guess. but to be honest htc would probably end up reparing anyways.

yeah or unrepaired, took me 4 months and 6 different hoxs and 2 failed repair jobs, then the final repair job which finally sorted everything
shouldn't be this bad, but its the companies htc are contracting out to do this, not htc to be fair. htc should fire em and use someone else.
anyway, although you shouldn't have to, just persist with them, if they send it back in worse condition, then send it back to them again and again until they get it right.
most recent repair job for me, they had it for 2 days, and repaired several issues, both times before when i sent it to them, they had it for longer, and only reflashed software, so maybe over last couple of months they've sorted their procedures or somethign...

Are you having issue's in Europe or the USA returning your HOX ?

Just wanted to shed some positive info since it is most likely the case that only negativity is more ominous than positive results.
In my case I unlocked my phone, rooted , a week later I realised I have a WiFi issue. Couldn't help but think damn I'm screwed. Sent in my phone rooted with supersu and a custom ROM (ADHD) at that time, got my phone fully functional after two weeks. No warranty lost and all good and well. Not saying your experience will be the same. But up to you I'm the long run. I love taking risks .. part of my personality

s-off updates

guys where are we to s-off?
we proceed?
There are currently a way or something to get s-off?

An s-off thread already exists on this forum.No need to make a new one.And "no" we do not have s-off yet.Please take any further questions to the s-off thread or the Q&A section.

Dear lord....I mean, no. Not at the moment and by the looks of it, not ever .

The problem is no real developer is looking into this....
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

my hox is branded vadafone, my fear is that tomorrow will not release updates, so I have to change cid, and without s-off you can not.
jb official update is already out for a while but Vodafone still has not released anything.
if we do not change cid I see it hard for branded devices.

My phones CID is Optus001 which means I'll be on ICS for a while longer, ICS does not stop my phone doing what I want it to do. Relax a bit, it will come.

I think he's on about wanting to use an unbranded ruu which has already had jb released, which is not possible without s-off as we can't change our cid.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

I believe an experienced developer needs to have a deep-look into S-off and then we might have some hope. But for now, we have to take use to this.

can i say something regarding XDA in general??? I am freaking pissed off with people now days not freaking going by the rules no more...
OP..Have you actually tried to bother to search firstly before opening this thread? No you have not.. Cause if you did you would know what is happening regarding s-off...So as regarding that we do not have it..Big deal..Learn on how to flash a custom rom without s-off. Also regarding JB..There are so many threads which discusses the whole situation regarding CIDS and so on..
So again why was there a need to open this thread. None at all..Just another pointless wasted thread and space and it is really starting to piss me off..
And to others here as well...You moan about this being another thread but you lot are just as bad as well by carrying on debating about stuff in this actual thread..Report the damn thing and move on...
I really miss the days back in the S2 forums were if there was a useless thread opened it was shut within an instant of it getting opened..Nowadays here at this forum you get nothing but bundles of useless threads and the attitude of a few members on this community has started to suck big style cause they freaking do not know the meaning of respect and they also do not know the meaning of freaking searching for something instead they expect to be spoonfed on how to freaking do **** on there smartphones...i really hope someone bricks there **** due to the stupidity of not doing the proper research...

XDA has changed. More mainstream. It's normal looking at how communities grow, develop and change.
I viewed XDA as a non member for 2 years before joining after getting an Android phone. Things have changed aplenty.

As much as I hate to say it I agree with Xmoo, theres been e-petitions, signed letters, huge letters to the CEO's etc. They aren't going to give it us, too much of a risk. Atleast not until theres enough new devices around that the HOX isn't so popular.
But I'd give it 2 years + before they give S-off to HOX.

Would love for this to actually do something, but I'm with Xmoo.....
The carriers just won't stand for it. I reckon HTC would do it if it weren't for the beating they'd get from the carriers.

S-On makes it hard to brick a device.
S-Off makes it easy to brick a device.
I don't think HTC want to deal with the warranty issues of people who cant follow simple instructions. Many of them don't even know what phone they have.

You have to think as well htc haven't thought it through. With s-off you completely loose your warranty so if there making cash of fixing s-on phones they would make more with s-off,as people would send the phone in with no warranty. So to me it sound like htc didn't think there whole security through in the 1st place.
Or am I not right, btw I'm all for s-off and want it bad I don't care for my warranty at all

I'm curious, do HTC have any reps on XDA? You'd imagine they'd be picking up on the mood if there were.
I'd bet that anyone on XDA etc, is the type of person people ask about phone recommendations. Power users may not directly be the biggest piece of the pie chart, but i could almost guarantee they are the type to make recommendations to their friends and family.

HTC doesn't care about xda ,we represent less than 1% of their customers according to HTC

[Q] Return to "locked" signature

Hi everyone,
I am new in the modding world of android and i am enjoying myself to try different ROMS on my HOX.
I think that me, like a lot of other people, have the problem of wifi signal: the HARDWARE problem.
Everybody of us know that the problem is joined to hardware because when we press between the camera and the volume up of our phone with ours fingers the signal goes up.
QUESTION:
Is there the method to make return our One x with the LOCKED signature in order to have no problem with htc warrently?
I would like to have a specifical guide, not a general guide if it is possible, because i read somewhere that there is an idea of the operation, or that someone have sent is phone in Russian for to relock with the LOCKED signature, but i've never found a good guide like for example the good guide of the installation of a rom.
If someone could help me I would be very grateful for it.
Thanks =)

There are services that offer you to soff if you send them your phone.

[Q] Return to Stock

I looked through the HTC One forum here but I couldn't find a full explanation. I need to return my HTC One for warranty work on the camera.
How would I return it to stock?
I'm S-OFF (via Sonic)
I'm bootloader unlocked (via HTCDev)
I'm currently running the Andybones ROM BoneStock.
Thanks all.
-------
I understand that this is super basic to many of you, but I don't want to risk bricking it while trying to get it back to stock... to prove that I have done some research.. here is what I was figuring that process might look like...
Restore nandroid backup from immediately after S-OFF.
Unsure if I need to flash RUU at this point.. basically I need the default HTC recovery.
Probably need to relock the bootloader?
I know S-ON would be the last step - if I actually need ot bother with that - but I need to make sure all of my ducks are in a row because I know if I have anything unsigned on there before I do that then I'm in a bad way.. unless I rumrunner, I suppose..
Basically, I could really use some help to make sure that I don't botch it when I just need a decent camera so I don't miss more pictures of my kids.
Thanks all.

If it were me, I'd mod the hboot with this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2496023
This doesn't relock but I don't think they even look let alone dig. Esp. given the huge amount of camera probs.
and then ruu back to stock.
I used the RUU in the development thread, but you have to be s-off.
I used these instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2251800
Of course, just my two cents. You know the risks.

If it were me, I don't know if I would go through all the work to send it in and get it replaced. Especially since my HTC is flawless besides the purple tint.

No, I think I could deal with that. I can't get the thing to catch focus on my intended focal point. Even when I tap the screen on my subject it just finds whatever is closest and focuses on that. I have to play peek-a-boo with the lens (cover it and uncover it with my hand) to get it to try and fall on a new object of focus.

+1 this. Same boat. Flawless except for the camera tint. Seems like a major headache to send it in. Also my device is s-off by Sonic so that'd throw $40 in the crappier and I like the piece of mind of java s-off over software.

I noticed that this camera isn't like my rez which could take almost macro close ups. I have had to make use of the focus lock to get the right thing in focus a lot. It might be software related. By the end of the week you might have a new camera app to try. I'd personally wait for that before going through that trouble.

Well, s-off is s-off regardless. You can't patch s-off with an update. You can patch the exploit so no one can use the exploit if running the newer software, but you cannot, to my knowledge, update someone to s-on. But also, if you're like me, I'm not worried about any updates making me lose root cuz I'm not gonna let vzw update me. I'll wait for a ROM so as not to risk losing something as valuable as root.

That's what I thought. But correct if I'm wrong if we're s-off and have an unlocked bootloader can't we still load custom Roms and whatnot even if they do patch an exploit? Granted it would suck if we lost root BC so many apps need it.
Keep in mind guys, for those that wanna be ballsy with the 4.3 ota: Voodoo OTA isn't compatible with 4.3 yet. It won't save root. That's according to the Dev.

Yeah, I mean those who are already rooted don't have to worry about it. We won't lose root unless you take the update, and even then its as simple as (assuming you're s-off) flashing recovery, then root.

Yeah, I mean those who are already rooted don't have to worry about it. We won't lose root unless you take the update, and even then its as simple as (assuming you're s-off) flashing recovery, then root.

Indeed. My question is if Verizon patches rumrunner does that effect those of us that are java card s-off if someone makes a mistake and gets the ota without thinking? I've been wondering that just out of sheer curiosity. I generally wait for OTA zips.

No. Because like I said before, s-off is s-off. No matter which way you look at it. The only way to lose it is to turn it on s-on yourself. But even then, as long as you're not taking otas left and right, you should be safe.

Right on. That's the impression I got from reading through all of the forums but I never outright asked about it. Thanks man
