[Q] S-OFF?

Hello,
I have a Wildfire S a510e unlocked with HTC Unlocked (code).
Put m1ndh4x8r rom on it and is working great.
Now ive read some time ago that S-OFF was only possible with a XTC-Clip
But since the bootloader is unlocked, does that mean that S-OFF is possible in other ways?
Or do i still need a XTC Clip to do so?
I want S-OFF to change my boot screen
I did search some topics but cant find the exact answer (yes/no).
Thanks.

You still need XTC Clip to get S-OFF

Have you tried this tutorial? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1308169 don't think you need s-off

Looks to me like it requires S-OFF. The people who couldn't get it to work all had S-ON.

You can make your device ROOTED with your bootloader unlocked with S-ON. Why do you need to S-OFF?.
It can achieved by only XTC Clip and you have purchase it.!! (around $50 i think so)
This is the possible and easiest way to explore the device....

I've managed to get my hand on the the file I need from the HTCDEV but its a .tar.bz file.. and I am only used to the RUU method..
please can someone guide me? do I need to change the CID? if so would should it be HTC_001 ??
Appreciate your help guys

Have you tried asking in the Desire C forums?

Dont think u can change cid but for supercid its 11111111 (i think)

island3r, when I started the thread I couldnt see the Desire C section.. perhaps mods can move this thread if the sections exists
jmcclue, does this apply to Desire C? as I have been able to change CID using adb tool commands before.
Please advise.. appreciate your helps guys..

I know it works for the sensation but other devices i do not know. Look try and see, it will either work or not lol. I tried with the desire but didnt work.
Just use the same command that u already used
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
Sent from my HTC Desire

I wasnt able to change the CID whether its due to S-On on somthing else.. so I got rid of it.. it wasnt a great phone anyway..
thanks for the help anyway guys

Question upon s-offing a device

I haven't seen a thread in this phone section where it shows how to s-off an htc desire 820u (qualcomm) without using an xtc2clip.
May I ask, is there an option to s-off a phone without using a gold card/xtc2clip?
If not, can you give me a way to s-off my phone?
Is it possible to create a gold card to s-off my phone?
I need s-off for my phone since I need to upgrade to lollipop and I have modified my OS without doing backups.
Unfortunaly, for my device which I think is 0PFJDIAG (it is the zip that is searched by hboot) or 0PFJ120(the model number that is written on the back of my phone), there is no available stock kitkat ruu. But if you do have one, please tell me where I can download it.

i don't think there is a way to s-off without xtc2clip
and for the kitkat ruu
i have an d820u and it came ithink with Chinese or Taiwanese software and i used the Indian ruu and worked for me (but mine came already s-off) this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-820/development/ruu-stock-fw-desire-820u-dual-sim-t3217030
i don't know if you can do it while s-on
but why you don't get s-off with xtc2clip it costed me about 15$ in a local mobile repair shop

Hey man, thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I've gone to the phone unlocking shops that are near to my place but there is no single person who has an xtc2clip there. Maybe I'll just wait for a software s-off for me to be able to upgrade my phone
Anyone here from the Philippines who know a shop where I can s-off my phone?

Sunshine S-OFF can work in almost all HTC Devices and it is Software only but it will cost you 25$.
Which RUU are you looking for anyway, or can you post a photo of your bootloader, I might help with with that

Sunshine does't support Htc desire 820 yet, the only way to S-off is xtc2clip

I'm not in France :crying: I actually own an 820s, this phone does not need s-off as one is able to write every partition with SP Flash Tool without s-off or unlocking bootloader
