HTC With S-OFF Now What? - Verizon HTC One (M7)

So I just performed beaups s-off hack to my phone installed TWRP and created a backup file, now my only question is what is needed next? Do I need to get Superuser Permission, do I need to Unlock the Bootloader, etc...
Thanks

No, check the Verizon HTC One Android Development and Original Android Development sub forums.

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

[Q] HTC One (M8) - CWM or TWRP Recovery?

Hi Guys,
I got my new UK/Euro version M8 delivered yesterday. I'm upgrading from a rooted S3 i9300 running CM10.
I've already unlocked the loader using the HTC tool but I can't find any versions of CWM or TWRP for it yet (not surprising as it's so fresh).
Has anyone managed to gain root access via any other means yet?
Cheers,
AsciiSmoke

Thanks, but that's for the 2013 version of the HTC One (M7). Has anyone managed to root the M8 yet?

I wonder is the Sprint M8 going to get it's own forum like the old HTC Sprint phones did, or are these similar enough to keep grouped in one forum?

Yes...and the recovery CaptainThrowback has posted in there worked on my Sprint M8...after a lot of frustration with other versions.
It is easy to install as it is now included in the toolkit from squabbi located here.. http://goo.gl/UoMXgW
The guys over in the AT&T neck of the woods are running TWRP 2.7.X.X. Say its compiled from source not a port. I have a AT&T m8 so I can't speak to it working for you, but I don't see why it wouldn't.

Rom question

do all of the roms in the regular htc one m8 work for the verizon m8?

In General, yes. The steps to turn s off are a bit different though because verizon does not allow you to unlock the bootloader through htc Dev website. If you need help rooting/s off, google is your friend.

No problem! Most ROMs will say somewhere that it works with all carriers but it's smart to check just in case.

That depends on your setup....you can simply flash any 4.4.2 Based ROM in Development PREVIEW by team d3rp or Team 420's OpTimuS, but you will need to make sure that you have the KK based modem....found in Autoprime's thread. The instructions for everything are the threads....That's all I got.

Typically, questions are not posted in the development section, this is something that could have simply been searched for, even from a phone...There are different sections to the Sprint G2...<<<---this is a link!!!

Again, you have failed to clearly state what you mean by, "unlocked", which also is the main reason why you're still over here asking questions in the wrong section of the forum...
The link provided to you is the latest Official Sprint release Stock and Rooted...direct questions regarding that ROM to that specific thread.

If I avoid all of the reply you gave me was because all does threats you post, was for CUSTOM roms where you have to root and instal no official things on your phone.....What I need is CLEAN OFFICIAL STOCK FIRMWARES. Thats what I am asking for.
No offense but he was trying to help you stating that you're in the wrong section of the forums to ask this. He directed you to where you could go to ask these things and even offered an alternative. Quite frankly he went above and beyond to help you considering this section is only for custom ROM development. You should direct yourself over to the Q&A section of the forum for these things where you'll get whatever help it is you're seeking which sounds like what you need is to just use the latest .tot and call it a day. I'm going to report this thread to have it moved. It really doesn't belong in this section dude.

How Do You Install AOSP On VZW HTC 10?

Hey guys, I saw a thread a while back and I can't find it now but it was a method to get AOSP onto the VZW HTC 10. It involved adding some files into the radio or firmware or something along those lines. If anyone could point me to that thread or a tutorial on getting AOSP on my VZW 10 that would be awesome. Thanks!

S-off is needed if have a Verizon 10, it's the only way of flashing anything on it as Verizon disables bootloader unlocking by default on their devices.
But even sprint says have to be soff and do a firmware with no radio then u can use aosp I'm on sprint I just say that every aosp for spr and vzw need soff

This was fixed just a few days ago, see post #5 above. @tabp0le found a solution for the firmware problem affecting Sprint/Verizon users. S-off/modified firmware is no longer required. All ROMs built after April 28 should boot for all users thanks to https://review.lineageos.org/#/c/170030/
