Yeah, you're overthinking this one a bit. Just write a formal letter, letter explaining your a piece of *** and that you rooted your phone when you were a kid bc you didn't know any better but your daddy whooped your ass and taught you a lesson and you solemnly swear to never do it again. Just kidding. Write a letter explaining your phone was stolen and when you finally got it back you had found the phone was infected or something so they wont suspect you did anything and you'll be good to go.

My Z was rooted when I sent it back to repair the powerbutton. I got it back for free with the stock-ROM on it. I heard nothing about root and I did not have to pay a penny.

but htc has released the boot loader unlocking tool (root?) so doesn't that mean its okey for htc that we have custom roms running on these.

Yes and no. The thing is, with the unlock bootloader thing they made it so that if you get it they keep track of who you are (in order to properly void your warranty) so if you rooted in a different way to them it's just as "bad"

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....

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.

although there have been [unsuccessful] attempts at a soft[ware]-unlock, the only known way(s) to unlock or s-off [gsm] one v is through a hardware solution. lg(e) tool or riff box both offer methods.

HTC won't give us S-OFF ever so forget about it. They won't even change CID if you pay em, this been asked already why not search before posting?

SuperCID and S-off can be obtained through various jtag methods: known lg(e) tool, riff box & medusa for gsm variant.

[Q] Does anyone understand Chinese here? This is about HTC ONE X

I need someone that speaks Chinese and has basic knowledge of Flashing roms, this is very important and might be a break-though for the HTC ONE X.
Please let me know by PM, thanks.
P.S. This might seem irrelevant, but it really is, and if there is success, what I am doing will donate greatly to the HTC ONE X society.

This doesn't hold information about S-OFF, but a glitch or something that supposedly works.. I know for a fact that the Chinese can S-OFF, trying to find out how.

Hey Mr Hofs, if you remember, I had an issue with a messed up HTC ONE X a while ago, that HTC ONE X was S-OFFed for sure. I found out that they use a "GoldCard" and "HOX Files" so S-OFF devices, but this method is what a guy that does S-OFF gave me, he doesn't really cooperate with me, just gave me the link. The physical "GoldCard" is very expensive, costs almost like a new HOX, but I do wonder if this method should work.

This is for the Galaxy S4 or something, and it mentions HTC ONE S too.. dunno
---------
My question is (to the Chinese understanders) what are the exact instructions, I edit the TXT file that they mention, but do they say that I can change the Main-Version to whatever I want, and the CID to whatever I want??? or something else?
P.S., if you look on the last reply page on that Thread, you can see it is quite active, i see posts from "3 hours ago" saying "thanks" and what not. But you need to reply in order to download the file so it's not really an indication of this method working. :-\

Good luck, this stuff has been looked into time and time again. I don't give a flying hoot about s-off, flash via pc and plenty of custom roms to pick from.

Well we do appreciate your contribution, it's good to know you don't give a "flying hoot", thank you kindly.
Some of us are stuck because there is no S-OFF, I have two devices that are pretty much screwed until I can do the S-OFF.

The first step is already an epic fail,, downgrade the hboot to 0.95.....Uhm no way without s-off.....

Secondly can you elaborate how the two HOX's are screwed.

Google translate messes it up, i think he didn't say to downgrade to 0.95, i think it's the last step or something. It really needs a good translation from someone who knows Chinese.

Like I said, the two HOXs came with an Australian CID OPTUS001. And a Version-Main: 4.29, which does not exist in the OPTUS001 CID RUUs, which means I couldn't use RUU to get back to stock in order to update later to JB.
I went through it with Waseem on this forum and we found out that the phones were definately S-OFFed. God knows why the heck someone did this, but Chinese have an S-OFF technology.
I coule buy the Goldcard for S-OFF, but it costs like 400$... So I am trying to find a cheaper way in their forums.

Yeah and I am sure people that are much more talented than me in development are working on it. But the Chinese have a way of hiding stuff from the world, and they might've done something that works.
I had an idea to buy the Javacard and then "rent" it to anyone who needs S-OFF. But I am not sure people will be interested

[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 =)

Not possible without s-off even then not sure anyone knows what to change

There are services that offer you to soff if you send them your phone.
I wouldn't trust it, shipping your phone around the world just to soff honestly not worth the risk.
Even if you got it back to locked they still have Imei number when you unlocked.
