You need to unlock bootloader from htcdev then you will be able to root.

he has s-off , no need for unlocked bootloader ! just run root from superoneclick found at here ... you'll guide yourself after downloading the file believe me ! It is the easiest rooting tool i ever seen !

Must be some kind of problem if he's s-off and it says locked oow.
Just double check in your bootloader and confirm if it says s-off or s-on.
If your s-off as I am then it should not say anything about locked or unlocked.

It looks like you successfully updated the bootloader [*** LOCKED (OOW) ***] but didn't finish the procedure at htcdev to get it unlocked. But in any case, it should root because you have S-OFF already.

SuperClick Root thing doesnt worl.
And yes and it is s off

have you tried zergrush, too?
Another theory would be, that the locked bootloader "overwrites" the S-OFF behavior somehow. You have 2 choices.
1) flash a hboot 1.08.0000 or whichever you want that is not from htcdev
or
2) finish the htcdev process and get your bootloader unlocked.

Hello i'm the person vinnyt is talking about, that is having the problem with rooting the HTC Wildfire S, it is a marvelc cdma phone from Metro pcs (USA service). I first used HTC Wildfire S - Unlocking Bootloader by Mstechify on youtube and i did this like the 2nd day i had my wildfire s and the first time i had an htc, so i had no idea about htc dev at the time, but anyway i did this method and i followed all the steps until the end when the program tells you to press any button to reboot, what i did was unplugged the phone but i noticed i was not rooted so i went to the the boot loader and noticed it said locked oow and it said s off so i tried almost all the root methods and tried to use htc dev, and htc dev just tells me that its the wrong RUU program so i don't know. Guys please help me all I want to do is temp. root to remove bloatware please help. thanks.

Follow this tutorial and remember to thank theq86

Did you tried out the the HTCDev.com Process.
HTCDEV.COM --> Choose Model --> Update HBOOT --> Now says "Locked OOW"
---> then Get the Token as directed by the HTC DEV.Com --> paste the token in textbox in htcdev.com ---> you got "unlock_token.bn" --> flash that using "fastboot" --> you got as "*** UNLOCKED *** ",
I hope that there is Nothing bother about S ON or Soff., My device is S-ON but Hboot is in "Unlocked" state, I already Flashed out Custom ROMS . Try out that

if you are s-off use simonsimons utility to unlock your bootloader and fastboot flash a custom recovery, then flash the superuser zip for full root

Is it possible to lock unlocked bootloader? I relocked it on HTC site and now it says RELOCKED, but I need it to be LOCKED. By the way bootloader is S-ON HBOOT 1.09.0099.

You could try SimonSimons34's Wildfire S tool, I think it can help with that, not 100% sure though. You can download the tool from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576844&page=25
^The download link on the first page is down so just scroll down this page, someone was nice enough to re-upload it.
If it doesn't help then you're stuck with the RELOCKED sign I guess.. :crying:

Thanks, I'll try

go to htcdev and find your current software version and when you go to unlocking bootloader you can find hboot update there.
update it and then you can unlocked it.
ps you need to unlocked bootloader first for doing anything like rooting,custom recovery,updating radio,updating hboot(1.09.xx.xx) etc

thankyou!
thanks....actually when i unlocked the bootloader of my WFS,its hboot version was already 1.09...but my friend's WFS was locked by bell...so its verson was only 0.9..i have already updated mine to 4.1.2 btw!
