Hey guys, it looks like the HTC Rezound is close to getting S-Off by Evil. If you didn't know, the Rezound has had a locked bootloader all this time just like us. Can we look to how they got root to help with our own efforts. The method of getting S-Off between these two phones can't be that different, can it?

EDIT: Apparently links to his site are prohibited. But just google "s-off think tank" to get to Evil's site.
They look close resembling. Worth a shot and try.

I'm pretty sure the internals are very very alike too. The only difference I've read is the screen size. They both came out around the same time, so I'd think they'd be locked in a very similar fashion.

If they are very close then you can take their way and use to the Vivid bootloader

I hope so... That seems to be a pretty good option right now. I posted this same thing in the "think tank" thread in the dev section, so hopefully a skilled dev can take it into consideration.
Just got a tweet back from the Evil man himself and he said "we can try"

So would we use his exact method? Or would we have to tweak a few little things? I know for many Samsung phones, you can use the universal SuperOneClick root. Would it work kind of like that?
Probably tweak it a bit

Apparently he is very very close. The link said days, if not hours away. Would he be the one to tweak it for us or would one of us have to? I'm not even sure if we could post our version on here though, XDA is pretty ant-anything that involves him. Maybe he could post our version on his site.

For the record, evil is not wanting it released here without his permission as well. You can link his twitter, but you can't link his site, due to him charging for a root exploit for the shift.

Changed the title, looks good to me now . The general section usually gets a little more action than the Q and A section. My intention was for any possible devs to help us out with this. My apologies for trying to help us all find root lol.
Now we play the waiting game

Look, I don't like the guy and I think his attitude is terrible and he deserved the ban he got. But can we refrain from saying stuff that isn't true? It does nothing for guiding people to an eventual unlocked rezound (or vivid in this case). Open is supposed to be was android is about... not squelching possible advancements based off a personal problem.
C'mon now you're a moderator. Please conduct yourself accordingly. You could have left it at, "You can link his twitter, but you can't link his site."

As I appreciate your enthusiasm for moderating me. The statement was made intentionally. As I have had this thread topic in multiple forums and the dev in question prompts flaming from discussion as to why we can't link his site. Most people on here either love or hate the guy, I am cool with him. My statement is made because that's the reasoning behind not linking his site. I can post it when I did or we could wait until it was asked, I chose the pre emptive approach to avoid someone literally saying something negative about the dev and xda. If you have an issue with my statement please address a senior mod or admin.
I'm not a douche bag here, I treat you all with respect and do what I can to help. Thanks.

If you choose to follow his work here I would HIGHLY suggest that you not be a douche and keep your feelings to yourself. Noob's should continue to stay here on XDA and complain as it will not be welcomed there. ROM development is at the top, but please read this page first.

I can't believe that someone would complain and actually blame the DEVs for bricking their phone. And if they weren't so nieve they would know that it isn't as easy to "brick" a phone as it used to be. They could have probobly recovered their phone's Rom instead of just throughing it away!

Well I am happy to report that this is a very stable Rom . I still have the time zone warning if I select automatic time updates but I just leave it of and thats that. The random vibration issue is gone finally! Excellent battery life even with LTE 7hours normal use and did about 2 of those playing angry birds (no profiles set on set CPU so profiles should help more) Not bad
WC, thank you brother, nicely done as always!

He likes to disable the board while he uploads builds cause when several people download while he's uploading.or throws the server out of wack ...just give it a lil bit then try again
I always love seeing the message about the board being down, it means we are getting an update.

I can vouch the latest build (9-10-2012) is FAST and stable. No issues on my end. All his builds are fast to be honest but the speed increase on this is insane lol.

I had an SOD issue with the 9/10 release. I have an entire pm for WC sitting there with what's installed on my phone with a logcat, I hit send and the boards down. I guess he found the issue and has an update. I just with he could disable the links and leave the board up.
I've never had an issue like this before so it's no biggie. If I wasn't traveling this morning I'd've hit hit up for an email addy to send this to him. Logcat is much bigger than usual...

Use a proxy server. I know that's what some users from Canada are doing.
As alot of you know wcx forums only allow people from within the US to access their site... Using a proxy you can view the forums but you can't download anything.... So does anyone know a way or proxy someone from outside the us can download the Rom because wild child is gearing up for the release of his sense 4.1 Rom soon.
