root your phone
Install a custom ROM
Google for further help (e.g. Xperia play ICS ROM)
Or wait till end of this month or next for the official ICS upgrade.
I'd wait for a someone who knows what he's on about more to reply to you though if you want more information

well theres two ways you can do this by paying 24$ to have someone do it which means he takes control of your pc uses se tool 2 and locks it, which i have done and it was magic , hes safe, i know because i let him do mine for me, or the official way of unlocking
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/ read instructions carefully pls
also this is jinx http://phoneunlockserver.com/forum/index.php?/forum/14-bootloader-unlocks-certificate-conversions/

You'd need an exploit in ICS 4.0.3 itself to do that and we don't currently have one.

lol...please NO!! brainwash
you cant do root here easy way because HTC doesnt wont us to do so. ... thats all and simple as that. with another brands like samsung is the process short and easy. blaim HTC ...
android is open source... ICS 4.0.3 its not the problem at all!

If you really want root follow the tutorial at htcdev.com to unlock your bootloader and then follow one of the tutorials on how to install a custom rom (those are basically always rooted)... I'd wait for an S-OFF though.

Some pretty useful guides in Development section...
I found them fairly straight forward with no hi-cups along the way.
Always prefer a challenge over a click of a button

Well for me I would like to root, but I dont want to loose warranty. Altough I want to get rid of soe annoying apps HTC brought with the phone like flickr and 7digital.

You will get back your warrenty if you un-root your phone.

Not sure what you're on but you can't root a Samsung phone from inside Android without using an exploit which is exactly the same as HTC and what the OP was asking for. You need to restart the Samsung and put it into the bootloader same as on a HTC.

Not if you use HTCdev to unlock your bootloader, they keep a log of your device, regardless if you re-lock it.
They'll still replace your device if it's a hardware problem though.

As long as you revert back to stock rom and flash stock recovery you should be fine. Don't see the need to relock as it'll just show unlocked what signs will we have that we've flashed a custom firmware? On SGS devices we had a count number but using a jig we could wipe this back to zero and return to complete stock.

Help with root!!!

Hi all, I'm a newbie with HTC devices. I've just bought an HOX and I want to root it to move a file to make the battery last longer, and then to disable soft touch lights that always stay ON ( even with screen off ). Which guide can I use to root it without unlocking the bootloader ? If there's not, can I unlock the bootloader in an unofficial way ? I don't want to lose the warranty. Thank u all.

You cannot.

Really ? WTF!!! It's normal that soft keys's lights are always ON ? Even when the screen is OFF ? Lights are OFF only when the phone is switched off...
How can I disable lights without root ? I read some tricks but didn't work for me

No, that's not normal.
I meant you cannot root it without going through htcdev process.

Before you unlock the phone, make sure it's fault free firstly. Get those soft lights fixed.

Dude, you can't root without unlocking the bootloader (-:

Thank u all !
the htc warranty center in my country is very disappointing .. I have heard of many phones brought in for service and back with other more serious defects. So I would avoid to bring it there. I read around on the forum a way to get the temporary root, which disappears after restarting the phone. Could you kindly link me the guide? I would like to do an experiment and see if I can turn off these damn led of soft touch buttons with root.

custom recovery . any source to get development updates?

Hey guys,I was wondering if theres any development blogs ,sites, that may get us an indication about what's going on with the custom recovery?
I'm looking for it now and then but all I get is antique topics about how the phone is just out to market and we should give it a month to see custom roms/recoveries .

T-Mobile is the only one with the bootloader unlocked so they have full access to using recovery and roms, I don't know if other variants are using a recovery yet since I am a vs985 (verizon) user I don't watch them closely
For vs985 we can't get into fastboot mode because verizon decided to remove or disable it, so we can't use tethered recovery (temporarily booting the recovery from adb shell)
I can tell you that Recovery's aren't hard to make at all. its just we don't have a way to use them right now &
Roms will quickly follow after Recovery's are able to be flashed

Any personal thoughts /guesses about how long will it take?
I'm really excited about it , because when I bought my g3 I left my note 2 for experiments, and hell isn't the name for what my oldie note went through.
My point is that I finally learned how to install custom EVERYTHING. from kernel to build.prop,and my hands are itchy to do the same on my g3

Unfortunately and until the bootloader is unlocked, we have to patiently wait for our great devs to unlock this retarded bootloader. It may take a couple of days, it may take a month, it may never happen. We just have to wait. Oh, and friendly advice: never ask for an ETA on xda

Very true , I'm going to get a nexus as I'm not completely convinced an unlock will come and even if it may be awhile.

jcase already found a Loki-like exploit but won't release it till he is sure a complete unlock is impossible. So, we will have an unlock and if not, then we will 100% have the exploit.

I hope that it wont take long till they find a way to unlock the bootloader. The stock rom is loaded with a lot of bloatware and lg apps that i never intend to use. I want to see how fast the g3 is on a cm 11!

no news, this are older "news". you can find them in at&t lg3 forum section with forum search.
be patient, the devs don't like to get stressed and the whole xda drama about unlock.
jcase already said he is able to run custom images but time is the problem to release it. when everyone is stressing them, they will lose interest to unlock under pressure.
when it's ready you will know it. until release be quiet please. thanks.

There's the "news"

Hellou! I am new here, but straight to the point! I just picked up a z5p and i wanna root it asap. I updated it to the latet update cus on yt there was some talking about the update, they said it fixes some overheating issues. How is the root developement going? Has anyone found a simple easy way? I really wanna switch to my z5p ,but if its not rooted no way. I have a rooted z3 and i simply cant have a phone without root. I am not a pro on android. Ive used ios for 5 years. Allways jailbroken, theres not a single thing i dont know about ios, thats one thing i cant say about android. I know alot more than the basics of rooting an android, but probably for most of the users here im a noob lol. So needing help asap! Thx to everyone who answers!! :good:

I haven't tried this method.. I just posted it to answer your question.. Personally I wouldn't root using this method because I don't want to unlock my boot loader since you lose DRM-keys (TA Partition) and yes that will affect the low-light camera quality etc... Don't know about lag, but you'll definitely lose some of the premium feel....
If I was you and I didn't want to lose any of the things mentioned above, I would probably wait to see a new method to root without unlocking the bootloader. (Root for locked bootloader) that way you don't lose DRM KEYS and can make a backup of the TA Partition..

If you unlocked your bootloader then your DRM keys are lost forever.. And there is no way you can get that back even if you lock the bootloader again.. Everything mentioned earlier is lost forever and can't be accessed back ..
