I want to S-OFF om htc vivid witch is already rooted. So can i just do the wire trick and it will be s-off ?? thanks for the help
Yes but you must be on a stock GB or stock ICS rom and then you can. Read the OP in the S-Off thread and you will be fine

OK so if got this right you mean I can just do the wire trick and im set? I used the all in one root for the vivid a few months ago. I dont have to use the HTC Vivid S-Off All-In-One Toolkit v1.0? Android version 4.0.3. Any advice and help is appreciated

This will help you get S-Off, then you will need to re unlock bootloader using htc dev

As a new user to this forum, you need to learn how to search. There are plenty of threads that discuss what the XTC Clip is, what it does and where you can get one.
Please link please

OK, if you can't take a hint and use the search facility of this forum, the least you can do is Google 'XTC Clip'. You should be able to do that.
if he cannot use the search button or google, I don't think he would even know how to use an xtc clip if he even had one.
the safest thing for him is to stay S-ON I think
I thought it wasnt possible to flash a ROM on your phone without being S-Offed???

You can flash HTC signed ROMs using the standard bootloader as long as the ROM you are flashing has the same or large version number.
The GoldCard method should set you S-OFF.
But it's a bit complicated...
It won't work as his software version is too recent.

Forgot he is still S-ON, i was talking about how to Root 2.30.405.1.
HTC & Bootloaders
You may want to review this link.
http://www.facebook.com/notes/htc/update-on-bootloaders/10150305151453084
It may satisfy your needs. Or maybe not.
Nah that doesn't help unfortunately, htc are only unlocking the boot-loaders of the evo 3d and sensation. You used to be able to flash roms with S-ON I did it when I had my desire.
How about Revolutionary?
It seems to work with the Sensation on android 2.3.3, so why not with the Incredible S?
I'm in the same situation right now, android 2.3.3 stock rom on Incredible S with s-on and no way to go s-off software-wise.
This does not work either as the temp root methods revolutionary used to S-OFF the device have been patched in the 2.30.405.1 update.
What is this?The following is another new updated HTC RUU for the Holiday. This will be valuable if you're trying to restore your device from a soft-brick. I know nothing about this update other than the fact that it's Ice Cream Sandwich.

Does this do anything for me... Or do i just wait for it to be used as a Rom base?

It's up to you. If you cannot use stock, then wait for the folks to split it open and make a base out of it for a custom ROM.
Looks like Bell Mobility's (BM) HTC Raider RUU, same version number as my stock Bell HTC Raider.
At any case, thank you so much for sharing, will save me some time if I want to restore to stock.

Correct, my HTC Raider is from ROGERS however I'm running the BELL RUU being S OFF. There is a well written account on here for how to gain S off, its worth it!
Confirm this is Bell,
Using it as a new base for Dark Raider.
Thanks Kenn
Is there heavy Bell branding on this rom?

Hey guys, my HTC Incredible S today gets an ICS OTA update. I have updated it. The version has become 4.0.4.
I have never S-Off or Root my device at all. My Hboot 2.02 and locked. Now I want to root my device.
Can anyone tell me how many ways I can S-Off my device? Are there any other ways beside HTCDev Unlock?
I'm looking forward to hearing from you guys soon.
There is a guide in development called All in one for noobs made by me. That's as easy as your gonna get if you want s off

Thanks for your reply. I have read through your post. However, I saw the topic is for 1.16 and 2.0. That's why I feel reluctant whether my hboot is 2.02 which is higher than the topic you posted.
So you mean I can do it by your instructions?

Well since you have upgraded your HBOOT to 2.02.0002, the HTCDEV unlock method is your only choice right now. The tacoroot exploit that is used with the downgrade script does not work with HBOOT 2.02.0002.
Can you tell me how to get s-off after unlocking by HTCdev? As I know, it just unlock the device, cut the security is still on.

With the HTCDEV option you will be able to install custom recovery and then root the current ROM by installing su-3.1.3.zip, but you will not gain S-OFF.
Technically there is a difference, but people tend to use the terms interchangably.
Thank you for your suggestions.

The latest version will work with the stock ICS ROM as long as you unlock the bootloader at HTCDEV.com first

S-Off will always stay, unless you decide to go S-On yourself.
