Without S-OFF you can't flash ROM's, right? So why there are these ROM's on the forum? ;-;

Please read through the forums.
If you couldn't flash ROM's without S-OFF, there wouldn't be any. You don't think anyone would've stumbled across that fact if it was true?
Follow the guides.

The 816 can have its bootloader unlocked, thanks to HTCs website and some guides that can be found here. There are more roms around if you look hard enough. Some of the roms are not posted onto these forms, but most of the popular ones will be here. S-OFF/ON would be nice so we dont have to void our warranties by unlocking the bootloader, but without S OFF, its alot harder to brick your device, which is nice

Hello. I would like to do the s-off too

How to get Stock India ROM.

I am currently using CM 7.0.2, since i'm planning to buy Nexus S. I need to revert the phone to stock to sell it. It would be great if someone could post the links for stock rom (India).
Can you amend your thread title please to reflect that you are looking for a stock India ROM.
Your thread title question is answered several times in the development forum and I guess you know how to make the phone stock, you just need the RUU.
Many thanks.
I remember switching off the radio using a utility but i can't recall the name. Where do i find a step by step guide to revert to stock? What is RUU ?
btw, I have edited the post.
Search the forums, use the link in my sig or just browse the development forum. All your questions have already been answered.
RUU is what the stock ROM's are referred to. My mistake, I shouldn't have used the term.
Thanks.. will search the forum..

I know exactly what you mean.. i miss the benchmarking scores and overclocking to 1.8ghz.. It's because of the battery i'm selling the phone.
Secondly, The custom roms are an addiction . I had a galaxy s earlier and man i was always addicted to flash the latest darkky's rom. I don't think i'll even root my nexus s .

Downgrading HBOOT 1.02

Hi,
I recently flashed the upgrade to Android 2.3.3 and it has upgraded my HBOOT to 1.02 so I cannot root my phone
I tried following a guide for downgrading a different HBOOT with Evo but it obviously didn't work!
Any suggestions?
use search button... and you picked a wrong board for asking such questions i think

Apologies if I have. I assumed this would be more of a development issue than general Q&A
have u tried unrev0ked? latest version?
if u still unable to root, just try running older RUU.. getting back to 2.2 and then Root.
Edit: and this isn't the right forum to ask Q like this

i'll be relatively kind: try harder.
there have been ruder responses than mine, but trust me, many people have asked how to root 2.3.3...............

Maybe we should all resolve NOT to answer any qn asked in DEV. We can answer when it is moved? Just a suggestion.
I have reported it. I have considered that approach before but as it had already been answered correctly and incorrectly, I thought it only best to help.

Easiest way to get 1.29 ?

Hi
I am locked on Three and have issues with storage (using about 3GB but tells me i am using 24GB) and I understand that the update to 1.29 should resolve this.
I have been reading around and trying to figure out the safest and simplest way to do this but I must admit to feeling a bit overwhelemed with the different options and possible steps.
I have never rooted a phone before (if that is what I need to do) and would appreciate it if someone could advise what the minimum is I need to do to allow we to get updates without relying on Three?
Thanks
I guess your best bet is to root it and flash a custom ROM.

Use Joe's link to root it. I can personally recommend you ARHD as the ROM.

[official lollipop] [help] cant install ROM

Hi guys. Recently updated lollipop, and now I have rooted, boot loader unlocked but s-on m8 with official lollipop. After installing Rom it automatically. Reboots to hboot. I thought manually flashing boot.img would help, but it's still the same. Any ideas how to install Rom, or how to s-off without sunshine . Thanks
What version TWRP?
What ROM(s) did you try to flash?

how to s-off without sunshine

Sunshine is the only way. Don't ask this again. The questions gets asked several times a week, and is easy to find the answer to by searching.
You also don't need s-off to flash a ROM.
You also never need to flash boot.img separately to install a ROM on this phone. This only applies to older devices, so erase that notion from your brain, as its incorrect.
thanks for answer, but why so aggresive

I'm not being aggressive. Everything I've stated is fact.

Your hboot and TWRP version should all be okay. Try a different CM12 (12.1?) nightly.

That might be your problem right there. You need to flash gapps right after you flash CM, in order for it to boot.

It absolutely matters. Do you have the dual SIM? If so, you can only flash ROMs that specifically support the dual SIM version. S.ROM is the only one I know of, off hand.

Hmm, interesting. Are the dual SIM versions of those ROMs posted in the main ROM threads (Maximum, ViperOne, etc.) or somewhere else? I haven't seen any of these. Again, just an FYI for me, for general knowledge and sharing, as I don't own a dual SIM M8 and not too intimately familiar with it.

Are there any custom ROMs for G920P that are not dead?

I have looked all over on the forums and other websites. Can some point me to a custom ROM that will work with my phone? I saw this question was asked already, but almost all of the ROMS people suggested where dead.
