Prem root dinc 2

Hey found this link is this unreal or real?
http://htcdroidincredible2.com/root-your-droid/
Dinc2

I read on clicked the link there is no option for the dinc2
Dinc2

That must be a mistake. If it was possible it would be all over this place. Would be nice, though.

Has anyone tried it?

If anyone read the site, it's for the inc1... unrevoked only supports inc1, not inc2.. nothing to see here.

I did find something interesting on the internet. I googled VIVO_W XB SHIP S-OFF and came up with a few threads in chinese of people that have this. I don't know if contacting them for their information would help us. Their software is the same as ours but showing s-off

From what I am reading, a lot of them were trying to flash IS roms onto S-OFF I2. They were *I AM GUESSING* probably told that they are buying an imported IS and doesn't realize it's actually an entirely different model.
Nothing really to see here in terms of breakthroughs... there's a way to S-OFF these VZW I2's... there's a list of address on their forums, but China is kind of far from NY.... haha
EDIT:
PS. There seems to be couple of reasons why they really like our I2s over their own domestic S710d. First being that ours are made in Taiwan instead of China, I am guessing the quality is better? and the Second being that it is said the domestic S710d are not S-OFF able as of right now, and only the VZW rom can support WCDMA on top of EVDO and 1X.
My own speculation, it seems like it's an XTC-clip based method from how people are describing it. I will be following their forum closely and will post here if found anything new.

Haha! my bad.

HTC has publicly said they will now be going with unlocked bootloaders.

Think this will be retroactive?

Bah. I wanted the Incredible 2, but maybe my OG Droid will have to keep kicking until they announce a phone officially with an unlocked boot loader. I don't think they'll do it retroactively, but I'd love them more if they do. I want an Inc 2!

i just got my inc2 from my second insurance claim this year, so i can't 'break' my phone to get one of the new unlocked ones, i really hope they unlock it with an ota, or maybe 'leak' the keys to some devs, so they can do it for us..

I've only had mine a couple weeks. I'm not the type to commit insurance fraud to try to get an unlocked one. I was just joking but I know claims will go up with some people trying to get a new unlocked one.
I have another upgrade in October so I can wait if necessary. I have a feeling they won't be retroactive but the codes may be leaked somehow.
Yup...Tapatalk'd

Ya I'm not either, I've dropped my phone off my balcony twice now in a year, but even if I was super tempted I couldn't anyway. Realistically they won't be retroactive but we can all hope they will leak the keys.

I don't see why all you guys are so doubtful that HTC will unlock phones that have already been released. The Inc 2 is less than a couple months old, there's no reason to believe that HTC would not apply their new stance to it. My worst case scenario is that we have to wait for the first OTA update (hopefully to GB) before it is unlocked. Even if they for some reason choose not to unlock it, the newer unlocked phones will almost certainly provide some insight on how to unlock this one. Have patience, this phone is pretty amazing without root anyway, there's no reason to be so desperate for it.

Here's to hoping that the policy reversal is retroactive! *clicks champagne glass to yours"

There's someone in the IS forum claiming they got prem root (heh, see what I did there?) without hardware. So far all that's been posted is a youtube video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aK_V7xo3qug
I'm taking this with a grain of salt, however. When I see the process reproduced by other people, or instructions I can follow and see for myself, I'll believe it then. Hopefully if the process is publicized it will also work on the I2, given how similar the devices are.
WE WILL SEE!
(I'm not posting the link to the thread because it's full of vitriol and has no substance nor information outside of the video concerning this revelation.)

Actually, where have you been? The IS has XTC Clip working on all but the Bell branded version of it, and that is the only unlock method available. The video seems to indicate, and the person who posted it implies, that a non hardware method was found, meaning no XTC Clip required.
I do read that forum on occasion in hopes that whatever they find works on our side as well So far almost all of the exploits found to work on the IS work on the I2 as well. The one difference in filesystems is probably the only thing that separates them enough for soft perm root on IS to fail on I2. I did say that I hope it works for us as well.

[Q] Help me with my Evo,Please!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello,
The purpose of this thread is to seek assistance with what has become a major issue.I have a rooted EVO 4g device(for several months) and I am not sure as to how it exactly happened but my phone now complete commands by itself.For example when in typing screen,it automatically starts writing letters,when I try to erase them they repeatedly come back.It will not let me complete many commands before taking over and clicking random selections.
**Things I have tried to remedy the problem include clear cache,data several times,install other roms(same problems with Cynagogen 7, syngergy and MIUI).
Powering off and powering back on.
Nothing seems to work and I would greatly appreciate it, as i am extremely close to unrooting and going back to the old fashion way.
What should I do?
Please help
Albert

Are you using the stock keyboard? or is this on a 3rd party keyboard?

Sounds like the touch screen is going bad to me. Does it also randomly open aps? Or is it just when you are typing?

wow! Incredible response time. I have tried several keyboards as well, stock, swift keyboard and the one that comes preloaded with cynagogen 7.

Are you having issues with response times any other times you touch the screen? Could be your digitizer going bad?

Curious, do you know how much a screen cost? Nothing else that can be done prior to this? excuse my ignorance.

I've seen anywhere between $11 and $28.

Call a priest, rabbi monk or other clergyman because your phone is possessed by a demon!
Actually, it sounds like a hardware problem. My wife's touchscreen android phone had a similar problem..it was hardware related

Thanks, a milliion times for your feedback. I actually looked it up after asking impulsively. I was thinking about taking it to sprint, but because I had such a difficult time getting my evo rooted in the first place. wanted to rule out all other options before going that route.

Does anyone have an updated version of the unroot process?

Go to unrevoked's site and download the s-on tool, then flash that in recovery. Then download the newest RUU available. You can download it in .exe form to run from your computer or as a zip to flash through the bootloader. If you decide to go the zip route, rename it to PC36IMG.zip (don't add a zip, it's already there) and put it on the root of your SD card. Boot into the bootloader (vol down + power) and when it asks you to update select yes with the volume up button.
I wouldn't flash the s-on tool though, and would just run an RUU. If you used unrevoked or unrevoked forever during your root process then you'll keep s-off. They should still fix it as long as you're back to stock otherwise. That way if the tech gets the crazy idea to update your phone you can still get root back. If they replace it then maybe someone will get your s-off device

I had this issue, gave the bare screen a nice cleaning with an glass cleaning wipe and changed screen protectors and the issue never came back.
If you have a screen protector on, check this route first. If not, then digitizer it is.

I wouldn't unroot, just flash a stock, rooted ROM. I doubt they're going to look at your Hboot or anything. This way, if they get jumpy and update for you, you'll still be S-Off.

[Q] Defect or not?

Hey everyone, I already used the search funtion, however I wasnt able to find a thread matching my problem.
I've got my 3rd HOX now, the first 2 were HT23.. - phones, both had that screen-flickering-problem. My 3rd one, a HT24 - version, doesn't have that problem at all, however there is some serious light bleeding on the bottom, you can see the the backlight - LEDs.. I've got some Photos for you:

Thanks in advantage

Does noone have this problem too?

Mine has none of that problem, mine is an ht23 as well, been faultless.
i would ask for a replacement.

Get this for bad, before my One X I replaced 3 Sony Xperia S phones and in the end they gave me a HTC One X that has a gsensor failure. This new one seems ok apart from the small yellow smear that seems to be fading. So I am happy now.
Smart phones really need better testing before release to be honest.

You're so right!
So I'll replace mine, however, I'm going to do it with some more intelligent timing.
I got my 3rd Unit from Amazon on April 27th. Due to Amazon's 30-Day replacement-rule, I can ask for a replacement till May 27th.
So if I get my replacement on May 25th or somewhat, chances of getting a May-Device, which should be "perfect" after 2 months of production with mistakes, are good..

I think you are making a very wise decision there, also with luck you may even have a newer firmware on it too.

I have this on my phone too Did you replacement come back perfect?

HTC One X's part of touch screen not working at all

I brought my HOX about a month ago, no issues at all after updating to 1.28, no built issues zero software issues, it was perfect.
But today morning i installed a game and tried to touch the menu bar(the vertical bar with 3 dots just above capacitive buttons) and it does not work.
Not only in the game but everywhere you try to touch that area nothing happens.
This problem is not only limited to the menu bar, but also till very slightly above it.
The 1.29.7 update for asia just came out, i thught this would fix it but it didnt.
Tried to factory reset but still doesnt works.
Is this a hardware problem? Should i take to htc?
And do you think i will get a replacement or a repair job done?
Also, i have never dropped the phone even once, it was aways in soft silicon case away from any rough use. In fact, it has hardly been used.
Thanks

I would send it right back to HTC for a replacement.

Exchange it. I had a simular problem with mine but it was the top of the screen that stoped working. In the end I had to get a exchange.

Same problem here, but I've unlocked mine voiding my warranty : (

Defo not fixed with firmware updates as I had the same issue with my first one and had to return it for an exchange

had the same problem and gone for a replacement. I have tried many things with the guidance of HTC support center none worked.

same problem here
took it back to shop where it was purchased from, it took over 6 weeks for repair centre to return it.
just got it back today and the problems are still there
im sooo unhappy with this phone.
ive emailed HTC and waiting on a response.
i want a new one or my money back.

I am expireincing the exact same problem, except the non working part of digitizer is just above the middle of the screen. Is flashing a new ROM would fix it? I think i have nothing to loose, since i cannot send my phone to AT&T because i bought it used on ebay and i live in Canada. I guess it could be 50% chances ROM issue, my old Sensation was having a speaker issue, witch was playing very weak, i sent it to HTC and they flashed a new ROM, it got is spaeker fixed.

I too had this problem although it was intermittent. Sent my HOX to be repaired on Thursday, waiting to hear back.

Vibration sounds "loose"

This just started yesterday, US unlocked model. Never dropped it either. All of a sudden, the vibration when clicking buttons, typing, etc, sounds loose and there is an audible "click" sound (not touch sound click) accompanying it. Anyone else have this happen? Unlocked, S-Off, rooted. I may have to send it in, just wondering if anyone else has it.

Looks like no one else, makes me think it's definitely hardware related, guess it's replacement/repair time.

Got the replacement all set up, this is the first htc phone I've had to send back. I kept looking through the threads about the right process for this - go back to s-on, then relock bootloader, and then run the ruu. I think that is the correct order, correct?

Yes, you may need sunshine to make it S-OFF LOCKED, then go back to S-ON LOCKED, then flash the RUU, there you go.

Honestly I have always felt like HTC phones have had somewhat of a loose vibration feeling, compared to say a samsung or iphone, where its basically the opposite.

Yea, it's not very strong, but it is definitely different than it was last week. Something came loose inside.

Ummm my Sprint variant just started to do this. I have the profile widget on the left side of screen and when I toggle vibrate mode it sounds "loose" or rattling. Now it doesn't do this all the time, but its there. I have also noticed it when typing a text. So you took yours back? I'm already on my 2nd 10 as the first one drained 3% battery every couple minutes straight out of the box. I'm way passed the 14 day mark at Sprint and would prob get a refurb anyways.

I bought mine from HTC so I had to send it in and they are sending me a replacement.

Another problem I continued to have is the SD card would continuously unmount. Hopefully the new one is a better quality unit.

Went into Sprint tonight and showed the tech the rattling noise from vibration feedback. He said yea that's not right. They ordered me another and will be here Tuesday. This will be my 3rd!

That's good. Sucks that you are on your 3rd one already though.

Hoping the 3rd one has no issues. Really digging this phone, but man if I keep having issues may have to move on to something else!

I had the same vibration problem. Almost like something rattling inside against the body of the phone.
As it was only 2 weeks old I got a direct replacement next day.

Yea, that's exactly what it sounded like. Got my replacement yesterday, back to rooted and S-Off last night. Hopefully it's not an ongoing issue.

This is ridiculous. Now my camera is borked. Gotta get ANOTHER replacement
