Develop Bugs

s_off discussion thread.

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
The LTEVO says hello!

Easiest way to unlock bootloader

Hi guys
I just bought my htc one x
And today i would like to install custom rom, so i wanted to unlock my bootloader(HTC Dev website) as i did for my previous sensation xe.
But when i research on the internet about unlocking the bootloader, I saw people are using different methods.
Now i would like to clarify whether i can use the HTC Dev website to unlock my bootloader or i should do something else to unlock it.
Thanks in advance.

I think the hboot is the same as 2.17.751.x, but my memory is atrocious, so I might be wrong. Worth a go...

Not sure what you mean about having in app purchases?
Try this video, took me 10 seconds to find using the search function. It contains all the info you need on rooting your phone.
You should really use the search function though as there are MANY threads on rooting the One X.

Better to have too much info than not enough though.
Just take your time and research before you attempt it. You'll find it easy after the first time. Have fun!

I had followed this thread when I first rooted my HOX.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069904
It's pretty simple once you have read it twice!

Its very easy:
1-first you should unlock your device using htc dev.
2-installing a custom recovery. (cwm is a good choice)
3-installing superuser zip from recovery.

*Help* Looking for someone to guide me.

I have straight talk (at&t sim), and I recently purchased the unlocked Pixel 2 XL 64 GB from the google store, and it will be delivered Tuesday, Jan 2. I've been studying the forums to be prepared to go to work on the pixel once I receive it. I need to unlock the hot spot function, and that is my sole purpose for being on here. I've read a few tutorials, but it all seems like a different language to me. I rooted and flashed my Galaxy note 2 with a custom rom years ago, and so it has been a while since I've even rooted a phone. I am completely lost with what is going on now present day. I really hate to brick a brand new phone, so I'm nervous about using the posted guides. Its not that I cant follow the instructions, I just don't like doing something when I don't even understand the terminology. Anyone willing to work one on one with me in a couple days?

Can definetly help with rooting and unlocking bootloader no prob just quote me
Cheers ?

It's a module in Magisk. I installed the tether zip and have been using as a hotspot for my tablet.
