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

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.

No need to think, they definitely have a thread about this, its not hard to find.
Its possible only if you know an HTC employee who does it(probably lose their job if caught), or simply until developers find a way to do it.
There are S-off One X's out there. But very very very few of them are existing. I'd say just over 100 handsets. My One X is S-OFF. I got it as a prize from HTC!

lucky you
It can be accomplished. But you can't fix S-OFF with a few bucks.
You need alot of things. Mine has been unlocked by one the developers that is trying to accomplish this by a software solutions.
Now you need is a encrypted javacard and more stuff... In other words, try to rob the HTC repair center in your country and you have the stuff to S-OFF.
thought footballer and xmoo both got s-off at the same time as x-moo got hold of one of the javacards or what ever they are

Xmoo did the S-OFF method on mine phone. But like I said, it is not done for everyone to S-OFF with Javacard. If we could copy the card... then everyone already has his HOX S-OFF.
Think about it
All I know for now, they are working behind the scene to get a software solution to S-OFF like the HTC Desire...

s-off is a need not a minor thing
and taking much time for dev to do it may lead to abanding the phone eventually :good:

[Q] S-Off without HTCDev?

Hi,
I'm really confused.
I'm looking to get S-Off. Is it possible to do so without HTCDev's bootloader unlock, on the HTC One (M8) international GSM model?
Thanks!
No I don't believe so.

I believe you might be able to do it with weaksauce and firewater or the temproot method. I haven't tried it myself so can't confirm.
Also note that the s-off from firewater doesn't work for all m8 devices right now.

quote from website
Your device must be HTCDEV unlocked/rooted or have a working temproot. A temproot that works with many modern (not all) HTC devices is provided below.

i had the same issue as well. don't know how to find out exactly which model works and which model doesnt.
i am from australia and some other aussie guys got their ones s-off'd.

I think in general thread or so there is also a method and zips to temproot don't know if it's the same like for Firewater temproot but someone could try getting my m8 next week -.-

S-OFF ? Alternative to "Sun-Shine"

Hi guys...
Is there any way rather than Sun-Shine method to achieve S-OFF on HTC 10?
I have a WWE 10 with .401 ROM
I'v unlocked my 10 through HTC-DEV site and go rooted.
Regards.

You don't need soff if you have a wwe device, it's useful for locked branded 10 to get wwe roms. You can get OTA if you follow captain throwback tutorial

S-OFF is needed if I brick my device and want to downgrade or run lower version of RUU
Thank you.
I remember back in the M7 M8 days using a terminal and root to S-OFF with some other free program
Sent from my HTC 10 using XDA-Developers mobile app
there is no other method available at this juncture, Java cards havent been "leaked", XTC clip2 hasnt been updated for the 10, and the creators of rumrunner, moonshine, sunshine etc... are the same folks. Good people too. they are currently taking in verizon HTC 10 devices via mail in, as it is the only way for us at this point.

Bricking your device with S-ON ..... that's like impossible ! Software brick yes. Hardware brick will be a hardware failure

World Wide Edition
No, s-off can be beneficial to anyone whose carriers are bad about releasing firmware updates. But it's not necessary for anyone to have s-off. You just could be a little more limited in your rom options and you can't flash a radio from another region or customize your splash screen (the black screen with white HTC lettering.

Thanks for the info.
The last time I flashed a ROM was way back when I had my M7 and I've pretty much forgotten how to do it. I'm looking at Leedroid but I can't seem to find instructions on how to root/flash. I'm not allowed to post a link to an external site but if you google "graphic city leedroid" it will show up as the 1st result.

WWE is world wide edition.
If your in the US you should flashed the US unlocked RUU if you want faster updates than a carrier version of the phone.
SOFF means you can flash full firmware and software RUU for any region.

There's a video guide in the other section of the forum. I suggest if you choose this route unlock your bootloader at HTC Dev and keep it unlocked.

You need S off to change cid and to load the US unlocked ruu
$25 well spent
So those of us with Verizon s-on locked bootloaders Verizon CID can only change to soff unlocked bootloader rooted by mail in service right now.... is this correct?
