Need some help please...

Hi guys,
I bought HTC wildfire S... Its a branded Australian version as i see 'NEXT' network logo on phone and box...
It has been unlocked coz i am using a different network in Asia...
Since it doesn't come in warranty, i want to Root it, and start installing custom roms on it..i know much about HTC sensation coz i own that too and have good knowledge of Android stuff...
Can someone tell me what should i do to Root it?
I saw in forums here that unlocking bootloader is via HTCdev and xtc clip...
I don't care about loosing warranty stuff but i want to enable ROOT and flash custom roms and remove the NEXT network animation on boot and remove all bloatwares..

Unlock bootloader and then root the phone. tutorials are in the forums.

HTCdev method is only option for me as i don't have xtc clip
i don't know of HTC Dev will have bootloader unlock for a branded Australian wildfire s....

To be honest, if you look around on all the topics their are plenty of solutions on what to do with unlocking and rooting....

The problem with this version of HOX is that I can not unlock by htcdev. With respect to the root need some way to achieve this without unlocking the bootloader obvious. Greetings and from already thank you for your time.

unlocking bootloader by htcdev is an htc official thing, so it's available for every hboot/ruu>>> you can upgrade it problemless! without s-off you can't downgrade... it might be problem for s-off because if someone release s-off for an old hboot, and not for new one, you'll probabilly stuck without s-off.

Unlocking bootloader without HTC Dev (s-off required)

Linking you all to the thread in the main HTC One M9 section. The script seemed to work fine for mine.

T-Mobile can unlock using HTC dev and then run sunshine. Vzw is still waiting for sunshine to update it. Other option for the vzw m9 is send it to someone with a javacard.

I second the above. Mailed mine to somebody with a java card. Fortunately I had the Nexus 6 to hold me over while that was being done. If needed, I am sure you can find somebody in the java card thread.

I am sure this was clarified somewhere, but I read this thread and the one linked;
I have a Verizon M9 with S-Off from a Java card, locked bootloader and no root.
Assuming I root and then do this method, will my data be wiped?

No it will not. What kind of slacker did your s-off?

Hah. I decided I'd do it anyway before I saw your reply.
It was a coworker, and I had only asked for S-Off, rather than the whole deal.

Gotta have a java card to s-off, and I assume you gotta be s-off before you can unlock the bootloader and root. Check out the Java Card thread to find somebody with a java card and send your phone to them, or if they're close enough, meet up with them. Stand up guys, all of them are. Many many multiple success stories from people sending their devices and having it back within the week all ready to flash.. for just the cost of shipping and a donation..

You must be S-OFF to unlock your bootloader.

I can help with root, I need someone with a basic understand of adb/fastboot and a willingness to follow directions.
In return, I will want some basic information off of the phone so I can add s-off support to sunshine

How were you able to root it? I still haven't been able to find a way.....mines from Verizon and it seems to block anything I try.

Sunshine is the only current working method. That was already stated, and ignoring that statement and trying to offer up other (obsolete) methods is just wishful thinking.
Firewater stopped working once the devs (same devs as sunshine) stopped supporting its online component (needed for it to work) in Dev 2014.
What do you think you need s-off for? Its not needed for most mods, such as root, custom recovery, flashing custom ROMs, flashing kernels, and a great many things.
What s-off is needed for, is to flash modified hboots, manually flashing radios, changing CID/MID, and a few other things. But for most folks, s-on and unlocked bootloader is just fine.

no
if you want to flash a custom rom you are fine with s-on device ( as mentioned above )
and it's more protected than s-off device ( for beginner )
about the HTC 10 ported rom ( s-rom or ViperOneM8 ) are fine with s-on
GOOD LUCK

This doesn't work unless you have a CDMA version of the M8, which yours is not.
You can try to flash the radio firmware with the version of the M8 that supports the desire LTE band. This does require s-off. However, I've seen a lot of cases where it still won't work (LTE band not working on a particular carrier, even after flashing the radio that supports it). So money spent on sunshine s-off may be wasted.
You should have bought the M8 version with the proper LTE band support, preferably intended for your specific region/carrier, if that is availab.e.

I am not talking about radio flash method which is widely use for samsung and lg devices in which bands are ediited QXDM. To qxdm i need to put cell in qualamcom diag mode. Lg and samsung have codes but htc has no code. I want to know is there any way i can put my cell in that mode.

I know exactly what you are talking about. And it won't work on your device. You can put the phone in diag mode, and change the NV values. But on the "GSM" version M8 (most any version except CDMA Verizon version, even Sprint has been reported to not work) the changes won't stick when you reboot.
What you can do with your version M8, is flash a different radio if you have s-off (may need to change CID/MID depending on what radio/firmware you flash). So that is why I mentioned that method.
