what is the PayG clip and what is the one I recieved as a beta test. does that mean like u have the clip but need ti purchase more credits? I ahve one test and then raskal is giving me 5 more so if this pans out ill help the inc2 community with the remainder clips. and thanks so much for hooking him up with ur inc2!! this is very exciting!
Planning to buy one once it supports the DInc 2... looking forward to this. Would love to get CM7 on it.
I just wanna unlock this baby so bad!! start the deving!, itll be slow even with XTC because it isnt software but this is still great news!

The one you received is the XTC PaYg... Yes, you will need to purchase more credits after you use the six you were given for testing.
Seems like XTC Clip is definitely a viable option if raskal can get it to work. Since they will be releasing the PayG pricing model we could basically do a group purchase of one. E.g. buy the a single PayG. Each person is responsible to pay for whatever unlocks they use and then shipping to the next person on the list. It seems like you could get your phones unlocked for a reasonable price.... then we could get some fun ROMs going. My $0.02.
Thread cleanup, back on topic please.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my clip is still version 1.3.8, no inc2
Has the inc2 been added? Or is he still working on it?
I think he is still working on it, touchpro said update added, but my clip still isn't getting an update, so I'm not too sure what he meant.
"Update: The device has cleared customs it should be in his hands real soon.'
I think this is what he meant.
Ahhhhh. Gotcha. I didn't think to look in the op.
I already bought my clip a few weeks back so I'm hoping raskal can get it working soon...or at all. I need my permanent root!

hi,guys,I got my inc2 S-OFF、Root、Recovery with chinese and network unlock！
The method to get s-off on the inc2 is not the same as incs, the S58 file is not the same. I haven't the s58 file for incs2,but today ,i found a person to get the inc2 s-off,but not to use xtc clip,now my incs2 is s-off and unlock.and can use gsm、WCDMA、CDMA SIM、USIM and UIM card，in china ，CDMA Network must use UIM Card，but he didn't tell me the method,I pay for it about 50 RMB,you can see this web，there are photos of my inc2:
the outsidelinks "ACD168 " had told us
I am a new user are not permitted to post outside links in their messages，
who can tell me how to post outsidelinks and upload photos??
Best way is to make some posts in other threads

He paid someone to unlock the phone. Most likely used a sim unlock clip. Nothing to see here.
it is the first known inc2 S-OFF though.

XTC doesn't support the Incredible 2 yet (it supports Incredible S). So the fact that it has been unlocked is at least a step in the right direction. XTC Pay-As-You-Go might be worth the money at this point.
I'd gladly pay something to have my inc2 S-off!
Please keep the discussion development-oriented so that this topic isn't locked. Please take any meta-discussions to the General area.
Thanks!
If we can get S-Off on our Inc2's, would the temporary root as stated before, be used to gain full time root access?

So, this might be a stupid question, but in regards to s-off, I know that up until recently on my INC (ADR6300), I did NOT have s-off on my INC, (until when I needed to flash my radio firmware so my video camera would work) and I was able to load whatever rom I wanted. Granted, I did use unrevoked initially to get perm root, so I am assuming that is the reason that we are stuck on the INC2's? (ADR6350)
Obviously, the end goal is to get S-off, but before that we would be OK (more or less) if we could just write to /system, right?

It isn't promising because he took it to somebody else who looks to have used a hardware clip to unlock it, whereas we're looking for software solutions.
in that sense, then yes... looks like it. but i was pretty ready to get a clip to get it working. the way i see it, as long as we are not too far behind IS's root development, then it's good news
It reminds me of the dss days. People would pay alot of money for "Special hardware and software" to unlock. Then a few months later a cheap software update would come up for free to everyone. Lets just hope this is how it goes with the new lock downs companies are implementing with their new phones.
With support for the Wildfire S being dropped by AlphaRevX, it looks like the only way to achieve S-OFF is using an XTC clip. For me, it's a bit too expensive to justify buying a clip and using it only once. This thread is for anyone that's interested in pooling together and purchasing the regular XTC Clip that could be shared and then resold. Post below if you are interested and want your name and country added to the list at the bottom.
UK (run by mphi)
The process:
I ordered the clip, and posted it off to the first participant who will post it back to me once finished so that I can post it to the next participant and so on. Everything is done through eBay reputation so that all participants have some protection. I'll set up a fixed price listing with payments through PayPal. eBay buyer requirements: At least 10 positive feedback comments, with 95%+ positive.

I'm thinking I'll order the clip and post it off to the next person, who would post it to the next person after use and so on. When everyone is done with the clip we can attempt to sell it on eBay it and then split the proceeds evenly. It could work out to be quite cheap if enough people are interested.
We'd also have to set some rules to ensure the trustworthiness of the participants (and me) and I was thinking that everything could be done through eBay so that all participants have some protection.
I'm in the UK but don't mind posting to the EU if there are not enough interested people in the UK and everyone else agrees to this.

Have you considered XTC Clip Pay as you go?
I can let you have one of these for £20, this includes 1 unlock credit.
Each top up credit would be £15
I hope this helps, let me know if your interested
Thanks

Hi Darren,
That's a great offer; thanks! I've seen your eBay auctions and the £97.99 price I quoted in the original post is from one of your listings
Though I can't speak for everyone else, I'm a real cheapskate. And buying the non-PAYG clip and sharing it works out much cheaper in the long run:
Revenue from selling used clip @ £10 discount = £87.99 - 0.034*87.99 - £0.20 (Paypal fees) - £0.40 - £1.57 - 0.03*87.99 (eBay fees) = £80.18
Initial cost each = £97.99/5 = £19.60
Estimated actual cost each = (97.99 - 80.18)/5 = £3.57 + postage
(Refund after eBay sale of £16.03 each)
Would you ever consider an XTC Clip rental service? Say £7.50 + £80 collateral (to be refunded after the clip is received back)? PayPal reduces its fees proportionally after partial refunds and I think it would sell quite well...
Hi,
I am in Licolnshire in the UK and would be willing to sign up for this too, provided that it is cheap enough of course!

One more person and it would be an initial cost of about £20, then a refund of about £15 after resale on eBay.

Yep my intention was that it was to be sent from address to address. If people wanted to send phones to me to be unlocked, I would insist on sending the phones back via an insured courier so it would work out more expensive.
If you trust me enough and don't mind spending a bit more to cover the postage, I'm happy to do this as well.

see now this could be the start of a great movement for our forum here. someone buys the xtc clip, uses it, sends to to the next person, they use it, they send it to the next person in line....see what im getting at here? all you have to do is pay for shipping and the credit.
Of course all it would take is one Dbag to mess the whole thing up.
But it would definently be one hell of a community movement. The whole inc2 community helping each other out to have everyone on root.
who knows.....its a damn fine idea though.

Glad to hear that! Service rep told me it would ship between the 28th and 4th of next month, i got a UPS tracking number about an hour later, its currently on its way i cant wait!!. Yea im hoping its not blocked from htcdev. but if it is, i dont think we need to worry much as it looks like alot of devs are buying the device and there is also s-off work being done as well. Firewater may possibly work but it has a different SoC so firewater will have to be adjusted for that. So I dont think we will be locked down very long if htcdev dont work

First of all, I just recently switched from IOS to Android so I don't know a lot of the correct terminology or parts of rooting yet. But, as I've searched around it seems there is no way to root the Verizon model of the htc one m9. All I want to do is be able to root my phone and get cyanogen mod 12. Any help or feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
As of this moment, the only way is thru the use of a Java Card. There's a thread in this forum devoted to that, where you can get with one of the members that has a card and ship your phone to them for the procedure. Other than that, just waiting for beaups and jcase to get their method safe and available for public release. There's also a discussion on that.
Thank you so much for responding so quickly! I think I will just wait for the devs to release something. But, what would they be releasing and how can I keep an eye out for it?

You can also make an attempt at finding someone close to you who would be willing to meet, the procedure is quick and painless from what I hear and it will unlock your phone, it is called "S-Off" in the HTC world and allows you to unlock your bootloader to make the possibilities endless, giving the ability to flash custom ROM's and custom kernels. It is most definitely worth it.. Here is the thread for Java card
OK thanks! Maybe I can find someone on Craigslist to do this.
Please don't look on Craigslist. If you need root that bad, I know someone that can s-off your device with a Java card. Shipping costs both ways will be your responsibility though.

I have never had a bad thing happen to me through Craigslist. Actually quite the opposite. I got deals I couldn't find anywhere else and I met people that were absolutely awesome! Actually the roommates I live with, I found through Craigslist and the job I currently have is because of Craigslist.
Of course 99% of the time you'll be fine but that other 1% will land you in a body bag. There have been a couple Craigslist transactions turned homicides on California in the past few years. If and when I do buy or sell something on Craigslist, I always meet in a very busy public place and bring someone with me. Can't be too careful these days sad to say.

Try ping-pong root in the Samsung s6 thread. Beta 6 will root the m9??
Sent from my SM-G925V using XDA Premium HD app
Simple root on this phone won't really be of much use to the regular user with the way write protection is on this device. The real deal will only arrive when s-off and unlocked bootloader happens.

Please don't look on Craigslist. If you need root that bad, I know someone that can s-off your device with a Java card. Shipping costs both ways will be your responsibility though.

Can you send me info on this? I have been holding off on the M9 since there's no root. If I can get S-Off for just the shipping costs (cheaper than Sunshine when it becomes available), I'd pick up an M9 ASAP.

Would you work for free? No.... It's common courtesy to tip the person who bought a several hundred dollar Java card for their time and effort.

I suggest a search, your info is already available.

I could have sworn I read that the Sunshine would work on the Verizon M9, but since there is no root, it doesn't get past the initial part of the Sunshine process... I very likely am mistaken though since all other variants were unlockable on HTCdev.
