[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

You posted the same thing twice......... And both in the wrong section...... If you look just a bit around, there's a Q&A section here...
Also...... IF YOU WOULD HAVE READ THE FAQ AT HTCDEV.COM...... YOU WOULDNT ASKED THIS QUESTION

You can S-off only by using a XTC clip yet. HTCdev only unlocks bootloader.

If you want to root your device, you don't need to S-off. Unlocked bootloader is enough. You can proceed with root and enjoy the hack.

This is the response I got from HTC'es tech support. After asking them why are they not providing S-OFF solution:
Romeo: As long this action is cancel the warranty of the phone, our engineers decide to not provide support to remove the phone security, as most of our customers are not advanced users to know wich programs may harm them phones and cancel the warranty.

Anyway, I have S-ON too, have bootloader unlocked and rooted. This is almost all you need for installing mods like CM7, CM9, CM10, MIUI etc...

[Q] How to S-OFF and ROOT m8 software 3.28.401.7?

Hi, I know that this is a very basic thread and it has been answered before, but I couldn't find a procedure that addresses the 3.28.401.7 software. Can someone please explain to me how to get root access on HTC m8 kitkat (4.4.4 sense 6) software 3.28.401.7 ? Thanks alot

The easy way would probably be to just use Sunshine app. It costs $25 but will do both things for you(and unlock your bootloader too I believe). The app will tell you if it can work or not before you pay for it as well.
Otherwise I would think you could unlock bootloader through htcdev, then flash twrp recovery, which will itself root your phone as part of its install process. You would still need sunshine to s-off though I'm fairly certain.

Sunshine is the only way to s-off.
Rooting is explained above perfectly. ?

I dont think sunshine will root the phone, as I have tried doing sunshine unrooted on 3.28 and it says I have to be rooted in order to actually try the app to see if it can s-off it. I havent rooted my phone and tried sunshine after that, but as i understand it can s-off even the new 3.28 base.

Sunshine is for S-Off, not to root the phone.
Have you tried VomerGuides?

Rooting, after unlocking the bootloader is simple, but OP asked about s-off also. ?
