Hi I was wondering if some effort was going into enabling s-off for the One V?
The reason I ask is because I wanted to use AdAway with my One V with CM9 but there instructions given are horribly out of date referring to previous HTC phones, not the One series. Is it possible to enable s-off currently using other methods or do I have to wait for a One V specific solution?

use adblock, but I don't think that adaway needs s-off.
What you need is root. You dont need S-Off. It's possible to root one v.

Anyway, I use adaway and it works just fine (rooted of course)

HTC One x us quad core
HTC One XL is dual core at&t version
wait so just to confirm when i buy the phone the one with only x is the international version and the one with xl is the at&t version.but is there is there any need to unlock bootloader?
I like unlocking my bootloader so I can backup my data partitions with Clockwork Mod. You can't Flash without unlocking the bootloader (don't see why everyone is up in arms about bootloader unlocking).
Also technically the AT&T version is the XL, but they call it the X. The only way to tell really is to check to see if it has Tegra 3 versus the S4. Though if it's AT&T it'll be chalk full of AT&T crapware.
To keep the development clean you can discuss here all related things concurring s off benefits and more.
Huh?
There is a huge thread that's never far from the top.
think he means that the thread is now development not development and discussion now.
Yes because that thread is cleaned a several times i do not want to risk its getting closed or the developer is getting sick of it and stops.
So please if you have something to say about soff that is not helping in anyway to get us nearer to a soff device please post out here if you want it of your back :good:
Just wondering, can we safely flash radios without S-OFF?

Yes unlike early version the radio is within the ROM. So if you flash a ROM with new base you are flashing with the new base.
What are we wanting from s-off then? If we can change the radio, remove carrier branding, change roms and sim-unlock, what else is there?

People want S-OFF so they can do stuff to their phones without having to use HTC's tool to void their warranties. I would assume that's one of the biggest ones.

The ability to flash boot.IMG from recovery is also a good perk. No need to get to a computer to flash a new kernel or ROM.

You can remove carrier branding without s-off by rooting and installing a custom rom but, for sim unlock, s-off is needed.

The LTEVO has s-off guys, go check that out, I think it would benefit one x. We technically don't need s-off tho, we can flash everything from recovery. No need to keep running to a computer

Buy a phone that isn't locked.
Hi all,
sorry for my lack of knowledge, I'm a brand new HTC One X owner. I'd like to have the very standard software (ICS in this case) without the branding of T-Mobile. I've bought my phone in Poland (Europe Version).
Any step-by-step tutorials in here? I surely don't want to brick my new phone
not 100% sure on this but think only one way to debrand that is to unlock bootloader and root then install custom rom could be wrong tho

Well, I've got no problem with unlocking the bootloader etc. but I would like to have the normal ICS with HTC's Sense on the phone rather than some cyanogenmod or something along those lines. If anyone can help me out with the needed files and a step-by-step how-to (I'm not dumb when technology is involved, but I have absolutely no contact with the moding scene of Smartphones).

I think ARHD is meant to be pretty close to the standard sense experience. Cyanogen is a good release though, but maybe wait until its more stable on one x?

While i might instal this rom one day, I'd like to give the stock version a try. I don't want all the bull**** from t-mobile though The bootanimation alone is kinda ruining the experience for me

ARHD is a stock Rom tweaked to make it even better. you will find it much better, that is the only way to remove it, or rooting and flashing another boot animation
Easiest way I found was to unlock bootloader, root then delete all the carrier bloat you don't want and then flash a new bootanimation

Since you still opt for ICS the ARHD is the best alternative choice! Just search the thread on the XDA Developer you'll find it.
I have a T-Mob as well but flashed on CM10 for JellyBean and so far works great!
Ok, so I have a VZW HTC One M7 that has been updated to HBOOT 1.61 running Droid 5.0.2. Am I dead in the water with trying to root and s-off this phone? I've been searching for a while now with no luck. If it is possible to root this phone please tell me so I can stop whining about it!

Your stuck, as Sunshine does not work for Android 5.0.0
Search Google for someone with a Java Card.
Also your post is better suited in the General Section.
Good Luck.

Note at this time.
Verizon locks the bootloaders, so you can't use the HTC Dev website.
The M7 is over two years old. So I don't it is a priority now.

Hi! I'm not OP, but I would also like to root my M8 so please don't mind me intruding..
I have a T-Mobile M8 on Android M (6.0), sense 7.
Is there a root available for it?
Thanks
