s-off s-on? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
just to ask how can I go into bootloader of my G3 and see if it's S-Off or S-On? (I want to see that with my own eyes... )
I tried the good old way removing battery, putting it back and pushing power & vol - ... but I doesn't work..
Am I missing something or.. ?
Thanks in advance

I dont think LG use S-on and S-off, the bootloader however is locked on all G£s except the t-mobile US version.

Yes coming from HTC... I thought all was nearly the same... So how can I see from my own eyes that my phone is locked?

[q] root- basics htc wildfire s

i read the posts regarding rooting ur phone.... but how do i come to know whether my bootloader is S-off or S on...
Make sure fastboot is disabled.....
Take out your battery, hold the VOL DOWN button and then hit Power....
Up top of that screen should tell you if you are S-Off or S-On
Follow the instructions by Ko_Ka after replacing your battery of course . You'll see the version of hboot.
At the beginning I don't succeed after trying several times, but when you'll see that screen : Kudos !
What are the advantages of rooting? My phone doesn't detect ad hoc WiFi created using windows 7 .... Will that problem solve after rooting?
I checked it... It's S On... And that tutorial said it has to be s off... Now what do I do?
You'll need to use a XTC Clip to do it manually.
Have a look at this thread - there may be someone with one near you who could unlock it for you, or you can buy one yourself. Mine was about 30Euros.

i tried that... some on has told him that he can root using superoneclick. so he just tried it... i'm clueless coz it is not detecting when plugged into the pc... factory reset not working... it doesn't boot at all other than the green light....
The easiest method to root is Unrevoked. I really don't know what happened with that phone , wait till someone can tell you what to do next. Good luck !

if your friend does get it back, revolutionary is now much easier than unrevoked. it will s-off device + flash custom recovery. then he can flash superuser.zip to root existing rom.

But is Root? Or not?
And. ... can you enter at Hboot? (pushing Vol Down+Turn Off at same time)
He withdraws the batteries a time, and come back to putting. When you put it, you enter Hboot and do Clear Store. You will lose the information of the Rom, but perhaps start.

Look at my guide if you can get it into the bootloader

now there is a new issue... after creating a gold card and trying many things some how the phone is working... but the power button is not working.. have to plug it in to a power supply to get the screen... any idea?

[PLEASE HELP] no my apps, market, cant install apps etc

hello
just got HTC wildfire today, and it is firmware 2.1-update1 baseband 13.51 kernel 2.6.29 buildnumber 1.06.xx softwarenumber 1.06.xx and browser version webkit 3.1
my problem is i think its not really a htc normal firmware rather a dev firmware (i think) because there is a icon called devtools. apart from that it doesnt have market, my apps,scenes in personalize option crashes if i click them, no weather etc widgets, no file browser, cant install any apps which are transfered from PC, if i download from web browser of htc it doesnt reconigizes the package...
in simple words cant do any thing more than the pre installed apps which are also not all..
please tell me whats the issue.. im a first time HTC user.. loved iphone wayyy better atleast it wasnt that complicated..
please tell me how to get all apps back and fix crashes
i tried software update option but it was stuck on checking for 30 mins... tried many times.. no luck
so also need to know any other alternative method
and what version can this phone can support latest that doesnt lag and is also good...
PLEASE help me guys
Thanks
just to add... my phone itself it fine.. i mean wifi, calls, sms, bluetooth camera etc everything is working.. i dont see any hardware issue.. all i see is software issue, so please tell me the solution..
also i saw HTC wildfire some saying its HTC BUZZ and some saying its desire mini.. what is it actually? i simply have HTC WILDFIRE
If you flash the ruu for your phone you should be sorted.
You can find a list of RUU's, instructions and troubleshooting info here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275680
Woh!!! Hold on there,let's not jump into an ruu straight away !!! We need more info..... can we get bootloader info for starters ? Power phone off then hold volume button down and then still holding vol down press power button.......inform us what you see on the next screen. At first impressions I would suggest first trying a gapps flash,but let's wait.

His rom is booting per op so I would assume he can get into bootloader. It is the first day he has the phone. He hasnt asked about rooting so why not flash an ruu? Seems like the simplest solution to me unless he wants to root.
Ok,I know he didn't mention anything about rooting but do you know of any stock Rom that has devtools app !! No nor do I ,so I'm guessing he is on cm7. Also now with more info we can see that he has a strange bootloader,I've not seen before either.
So which ruu are you going to recommend with his hboot ?

what does rooting means? and what are the advanages..???
i want a normal phone that has 7 different desktops witha weather widget (this has just 3), market google play , can install apps and do all the things that a normal htc user can do...
rightnow i can just use the apps that are preinstalled and nothing more...
this really sucks...
tell me did i get a faulty OS?
Can you tell me what the front of your phone looks like? Under your screen you should have a set of soft buttons which are, home key,menu,back button and then a magnifying search icon button ? Under them you should have a round trackball button yes ?

Mfg is an abbreviation for manufacturers warranty. Its probably expired by now though if the phone is secondhand.

Good point I don't know about that strange hboot. If he is s-on (which is unclear strangely) and locked to a particular carrier he will need an ruu with a cid that matches his phone. I would personally go with a froyo WWE Rom and see if he gets a cid error and if so try to find out the cid of the phone which I think you can do via fastboot.
It might be cm7 if the phone is second hand.
OP - from your bootloader screen, choose recovery (vol buttons for up and down, power to select) and tell us what it looks like. Also do you have an app called superuser in your app drawer?

yes please, hans moleman, you seem to be one of the "shoot first - ask later" type
It's kindly appreciated by everyone in the forum - those who seek for help and those who want to help - that you try your best. But please - before you suggest a RUU (which really could do a lot of harm in many cases) try to find out what's the problem, what hardware/software is involved, s-on/s-off etc etc - you mention it yourself: you have no idea about the HBOOT version - nor do I. And we already had that problem with a HBOOT version that looked at least similar to the known Buzz values - in the end it has been a bee and it looks like it's bricked due to an RUU...
Back to the topic: your latest suggestion was better
So texh could you try to do the following
- power your phone off
- press "volume down" and "power" and keep holding until something happens
- write down all the contents of the screen you get there

What are you talking about? an ruu is much safer than rooting and flashing custom roms. The ruu program carries out a lot of checks before flashing. It won't flash if the device id or cid don't match and it also checks the HTC signature before flashing. It is HTC's own software.
So is flashing an RUU not going to help? If not what do you think will help? The phone is not rooted, he cannot access recovery, I don't think he cares about root access so why risk it. He just wants to get his phone working.
Look back at the earlier posts if you want to see his hboot. It says buzz. And as said before if it is not a buzz, a buzz ruu will return a device id error.

That error pic isnt really an error but more a warning to say don't go any further, if you press vol up+power on that screen it should take you to the stock recovery i think. Not much to do in there though as its noobproofed........
Is it a desire a, i seem to remember some people from south america i think having problems getting root a long time ago on what was believed to be a wildfire but wasn't.
Check under the battery to see if it says desire a, I'll see if i can find a link to the topic if it is.
Edit: forget the desire a part i just found the topic and the hboot info is different to yours so i don't think its that. And hans is correct about ruu if it isn't a buzz or it needs a certain ruu it will give an error and stop the flash.

this hasn't been absolutely clear as he reported having dev tools showing up which is not part of the stock HTC ROM IIRC - BTW you mentioned yourself that it's unclear if he's s-on or s-off

yes but either the HBOOT and the radio version are unknown
And as said before if it is not a buzz, a buzz ruu will return a device id error

IIRC it did run on a bee (not sure about the error msg but it did run on a non-Buzz)
Anyway - and again: no worries - what I just wanted to say is: let's find out more about hard- and software and the problem before suggesting the stuff that is usually known as a last attempt. This is an Android forum - I personally don't want to see something like in all those Windows noob forums where the no.1 suggestion for all problems is: "format your drive and reinstall"...

[Q] Does anyone know of a way to force on USB debugging?

I have just been given an old Wildfire that is unrooted, s-on and network locked that has somehow managed to get itself into Qualcomm diagnostic mode. I am unable to get anywhere, adb - device offline. Is there anyway to force on USB debugging so that I am able to use a goldcard?

bottom line is nope. how is the device reacting? is it just black screening with vibrations?
totally of topic but 1000 posts XD
I'm a bit confused with this diagnostic mode?
If i remember correctly i was able to go into it with vol up + power but then after a battery pull it would reboot just fine........
Maybe as Lesicnik mentioned not so long back the volume button might be stuck or faulty hence pressing the power button will equal vol up+power and start diag mode.

qualcomm diagnostic mode happens when you f**k up the phone so bad that it doesnt know what else to do, and reverts to what i think is the backup firmware on the nand chip? not 100% sure. it usually results in the phone powering on but not showing anything on screen. but vibrates a few times depending on what the issue is. sometimes you can "blindboot" which is where you take a stock rom.zip from a ruu and place it on the sdcard and boot to bootloader. then by using time (ie waiting) and logic (when to try push volume up to update the rom+reboot) you can sometimes manage to restore the phone. as far as i am aware the guys over at the evo 3d forum are very advanced in how this mode actually functions. the htc sensation unbricking project, which helps people fix their phones after an attempt to s-on kills it was made with the help of the evo 3d guys knowledge. also i think jupuntobear s-off puts the phone into download mode before you do the "wire trick" to drop write security. so it is possible to fix this issue but it is quite a hard nut to crack.

Have already taken phone apart and checked all connections as my first thought was that something may have worked itself loose after being dropped or something.
Vol up + power and the phone buzzes/vibrates 3 times.
Managed to do a blind factory reset - vol down + power wait for a bit, then vol down etc, etc. After about 3-4 minutes I was able to push the soft buttons which light and vibrate. I am unable to do anymore than this due to usb debugging being off as I need to use adb to make a gold card and run a ruu. Thanks anyway.

do you know what network the phone was locked too? you could hunt for the offical ruu from that network with the 1.01.0002 hboot and try to blind boot that to restore the phone. if you can tell me the network its on i will help you hunt for the ruu 3 vibes is better than 5 as far i know. ive heard of people recovering from 3 vibes.
also, if you have access to another wildfire you can use that to make the goldcard and then use that on the damaged phone then it should run any ruu that has an equal or higher hboot ^^

The phone is locked to Vodafone UK. I've just spoken to my sister whose phone it was (she's not the most technically clued up of people) and she can't remember whether she upgraded to froyo or not. She's now got a GS2 and hasn't even done the official OTA update to ICS (and Touchwizzed Jellybean is on the horizon). So I'm betting its still on Eclair, but I can't be 100% sure. I've looked on the Vodafone UK site and the latest Wildfire software version is '2.24.161.2', which they are only giving out through an OTA. I'm not having much luck googling it either.
I don't have any access to another Wildfire, so the only thing I can think of is if I can find someone else who would be so kind as to make and upload a goldcard for me :fingers-crossed: (highly unlikely), otherwise I think the phone may be taking a trip to environphone (they give £20 for a working wildfire). I'll spend another couple of hours on it, seeing what I can come up with, but it's looking bleak at the moment .

ok i have found a vodaphone rom that is from denmark, or germany it may be enough to do it. also, the goldcard is specific to the sdcard that is used to make it buddy :/ but! although i may not have a wildfire i do have the xtc clip so i can make a goldcard for the wildfire. so if you were willing to post a small micro-sdcard to me i could make it for you i am currently uploading the rom to mediafire now. will edit this with a link asap
EDIT: ok here is the rom.zip i was talking about, rename it to pc49img.zip and try do a cold boot up to fix it.

[Q] HTC Desire HD won't boot

Hi all,
I just joined this website. I got a HTC Desire HD, with Cyanogemod from this website cyanogenmod.org
Since yesterday its stuck in boot screen. The cyanogenmod booting animation keeps going forever. I got into the recovery mode once, and somewhere on another forum someone wrote that I had to click Fastboot. But now I cant get into recovery mode anymore, and my phone wont boot too.
What can I do to make my phone work again?
All help is highly appreciated!
Please provide what steps you followed before current state of phone, are you s-on or s-off, bootloader unlocked or not etc. So that it will be easy to understand the state of ur phone and helo

Hey ramdesai,
I really appreciate your post(and it was really fast too). It was a long time ago that I put Cyanogenmod on my phone, and I used some tutorial to do it. I think this was the tutorial that I used. I also don't know what s-on or s-off is. techgeekal.com/2013/01/14/cyanogenmod-10-1-jellybean-4-2-1-for-htc-desire-hd/
Edit: i know my phone had its original OS before cyanogenmod

Are you S-OFF or have an unlocked bootloader? if you don't know that then I suggest you do some reading first. There is a guide in my signature where you will find all that stuff.
Check the hboot and see what it says...it is not the same installation for S-OFF than being unlocked

I already told you what to do. A good piece of advice is to avoid messing around your device if you don't get what you are doing....when you are online let me know and we can arrange so I can connect to your PC via teamviewer to have a look at it.

Hi, you are such a good person that you are willing to take the time to help me. I really appreciate that. It is midnight now, so I need to go sleep. Will post here when I wake up.
Reboot into hboot by holding power and volume-down. What does it say?
has supdlco
It got fixed by teamviewer. thanks!
Hiho , i have a problem that my DHD wont start anymore after installing the newest update of the Jelly Time ROM.
USB Debugging is off and i cant turn it on and fastboot was allready on before i flashed it.
If i connect the device to my PC the CWM starts but i cant select wipe/factory reset by pushing the power button because the device will boot then.
