Database Develop

*See here for Vivid root progress*

Hey guys, our own GSLEON3 has just started working with EvilDevnull. Evil has a pretty good track record with being able to exploit devices, so I think we might be in luck. However, EvilDevnull was banned from XDA for reasons I won't go into. So please, do not link his site, but you are allowed to link his twitter. TO FIND HIS SITE, google "s-off think tank" and you will find his forum with his name in the url. Register with the forum and you are in. Recently, Evil was only working on the HTC Rezound but GSLEON3 was able to get him to add a Vivid section on the forum since the two devices are so alike. So check in on the Vivid or Rezound sub forums to see what's going on. This thread is for root discussion only, please do not start drama about Evil or you may face the consequences with a mod.

Very cool. Thank you for the update. Just signed up

Thanks slapshot30. Things are going in the right direction

Hoping to learn more and more specifically learn enough to help with rom development...
I'm a Web Developer by trade, but pretty excited about the 'Holiday', finally being a real device.

Excellent!!!

I am really dissapointed because this is the first HTC phone I get that I can not modify to my like. I like it hardware wise but miss the overclocking and twicking and so. I just wish it was rooted. So I am going to fork some cash for a moto razr from local carrier that has the same freq than Ma Bell and put this baby In its box until its been rooted. I like it enough to hold on to it and I realy don't like the Sammys, I remember my cappi being unstable and feeling like a chinesse counterfeit of a nicer product.
The razr is rooted so Ill have Enough
To stay busy and entertainned until the beast is finnaly out of its cage.

No, he didn't. On the 17th he said he MAY have great news in a couple of days, not that it was definite. Not once has he given an actual eta.

Nice to see another dev for the Vivid.
Why would someone rate this 4 stars or less? Hasn't even been released yet.

It's based off the official att ics ruu...first build will be nothing fancy...as this is my first build to share with others....and I'm a man....not female....
And I'm still sitting in court
Also it will be tweaked themed and nodded as time goes on

If you don't know what it does then why would you S-OFF your device? Doesn't sound very smart to me. Like above said... It just helps YOU possibly break you device but since that's a lame answer I'll help.
You can flash modded hboots, custom splash screens, remove the red warning text on boot, remove bootloader tampered sign and lock/relock/unlock bootloader.
You can probably do more but that's what I use it for. Happy bricking

Sky go

Just been trying to get this on my HTC one and have found that allthough the app loads etc fine when I go to play anything it comes back saying sky go is not supported on rooted devices.
A) how does it know I'm rooted?
B) anyway around it?
Thanks

It's apparently one of the most sophisticated apps for root detection and security. There's no way of bypassing it apart from unrooting.

That's a bit dissapointing
Why does it matter to them if I'm rooted or not? Seems stupid.

They say it's something to do with their contract with content providers - I think it's because they're just c*nts. It's the same with jailbroken iOS devices.

Rumrunner for S-off

Like a bonehead i posted this in the At-t forum,
Just curious if anyones tested rumrunner for s-off on the M8 yet. Reading through it, it says it should work for most Htc devices that are Qualcom based and the Sprint Htc One is listed as confirmed. Just wonderd if anyone has actually tried it yet.

Didn't work for me as my desperation to get my S - OFF (lol) led me to similar reasoning. I have one of the M8's that gets the Whelp message in firewater though so it may still work for others...
