Hi, I recently acquired this phone from my brother. I tried to play temple run on the phone but its not supported. I wanted to s-off to use chainfire 3D. Can anyone help me?
BTW can s-off have any negative impacts on the phone? Just wanted to know.

erm s-off can only be given via the xtc clip unless it has proper support from other developers else where.
yes it can....if you have done your bootloader then don't bother.
if you haven't done your bootloader and s-off u will require the bootloader to be unlocked afterwards...good luck.
as for temple run it will never run on this phone!
if this is all your wanting it for give up now!
Don't need soff just unlock bootloader from HTC site. Then can install custom Rom or fix low memory problems.ie:data2sd and bigbearevorom. Search and read development thread. Much better phone once unlocked.

hi i have the same problem - and my big one is that my usb port is broken and i fixed it but it can just charge the phone and the pc didn`t recognize it- now how can i unlock my phone without usb connection? is there any way like wifi or bluetooth or on sdcard .?
i have no space in internal memory and cannot move to sd cause it hadn`t been root.

erm with great difficulty. u maybe be able to root the device without usb ie uploading to the sdcard, but it may not work. USB is predominantly the norm and hasn't be tested fully any other way.
U will need a recovery installed to access the dta2sd script. as of yet the only working way is via USB to install recovery. I have personally tried many ways when we first got this handset. How did it brake? how did u fix? If the usb was faulty i would have repair shopped it myself. Also u require Unlocking of boot-loader
Summary
Unlocking of Bootloader >USB Only
Install Recovery >USB
Root >USB (possible Uploading a file to sdcard, but would need specialist program to Root the device)
Even if u got root with an external source, you couldn't have extra memory without the above!
maybe z4root works in salsa. you can test it if you want.

Am I to assume that this is for S-OFF phones only and isn't the S-ON exploit?

ClockworkMod is a custom recovery that allows you to create android backups, flash update zip files and wipe system partitions. You need to be S-OFF to install a custom recovery because otherwise the partition you need to write to is locked.
If you have come from a different HTC Android phone, you may have used AmonRA recovery's, this is very similar except it comes with an app you can use whilst in Android to manage your recovery and backups much easier.
This is good news as we now have official support and all the features should be working, where as the two ports gloating about both had problems.
Hope that clears everything up

Does this mean we can now temp root and then install the recovery. Or is that the goal? Anyway, nice to see l0st.pr0phet from the hero scene. Just won this phone yesterday at an htc event so still orientating the possibilities
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA Premium App
Gotcha. I am familiar with recoveries having used both on my old Hero, I think I was just hoping against hope that this was an S-OFF exploit somehow. Also I am very hung over and not thinking clearly, which only made things worse.

people for all your questions. search on google what clockworkmod recovery is
all i did whas gather al the info that was needed to realise to get this up and running, koush builded it and its fully supported now in the rommanager...
yes you need root...
no this is not an exploit
Thank you, working here
Now we just need a working wwe flashable rom with 2.3

I have the same problem with an S-OFF phone and temproot.
Can someone explain me what is wrong?
Try to go and clear data for the super-user application (Settings -> Apps -> Manage -> All apps -> Super-user -> Clear data)
Then reboot (just in case) and try to install Clockworkmod from Rom Manager again.
<warning, this is on your own risk>
anyone want to be so kind to test this on the INC2, it seems only the local partition wont be backed up, which shudnt be a problem tho
<warning, this is on your own risk>
p.s. yes offcourse u need s-off for this.......

Is there another way to get root with an S-OFF phone ?

Use SuperOneClick on your ROM:

That way you will permanently root, and you wont lose the settings after a reboot.
Hi all,
My USB port has recently broken (no charge, no pc connectivity, nothing) and I have been using an external battery charger to keep it going. My phone is un-rooted, s-on and hboot-2.02.002. I am on ICS 4.0.4 but I really want to flash Cyanogenmod7. I was wondering if there was an apk similar to gingerbreak to root my phone and install custom recovery, or failing that, some way to install cm7 without root.
Thanks, Jake.
I can't imagine that this could work, you need at first unlock via HTC dev, just works via usb. Than you need downgrade via USB. Than flash a s off boootloader you need USB and at least flash a recovery you need USB...

Nice guide, but as a info, the version of touch recovery included in the tool is from a chinese site, and is fully functional, only thing missing is mount usb , so, you can use with no problem, i have used it with no problem and flashed a few things with it...
Nice guide mate. Not being rude but a little correction here.. the code of updater-script to detect the hboot & flash vold.fstab accordingly is my creation.. i made it when ICS was relased for Runnymede.....

Yeah, people think, but that doesn't mean you must write that it doesn't do this or that, as you posted there, that was from another version of Touch Recovery, mention the version so people know this or that, many someone don't mind the mount-usb as there is a workaround, but when they see that cleand dalvik doesn't work or other things, they will surely panic )
For starters it is a good guide, just some polishing here and there
yesssssss you are the man.. tanks allot

Hi, i'm using Sensation XL w a Cobra rom, i got this problem trying to install various apps from market. For instance, XDA, its keep saying "Can't install on USB Storage or SD card", but some other apps can be installed just fine. Storage count: Internal 4Gb, Phone Storage 8.89Gb - So i don't really know what's going on.
Also did try to fix it with this solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1965039, but the XL doesn't have a removable SD card, so ... there's no "unmount"
So i heard about your fix, tried it, but it stays the same.
It would be really great if you can help me out.

Hi,
It's been about a year since I've messed about with my XL, I flashed it the day I got it as usual, but then a few months later the speaker broke. So I unrooted, re-locked etc, and after spending 10 months psyching myself up to be without my phone for a week, I eventually sent it off for repair. I've had it back a month or so, and got a bee in my bonet last night, and decided to go custom again. I decided to go for Evervolv, and went through the processes again (in a much easier fashion than it was in Nov 11 when I got my phone). Anyway, having made several mistakes, and attempted short-cuts, to eventually go back to doing it the way i did it last time (China ROM etc), I eventually got my phone booting again. It is all working nice (big thanks to the team behind the ROM - love it, and big thanks to Vertigo and Shinger5 for some of the guides), but I had no usable SD card. So more searching and came accross this thread, and got a little stumbled at point 6 of second method (XL Tool). So decided to d/l the JB fix, and side load it. This now gives me an SD card, but only 236kb. I have no idea what I've done wrong, and short of starting again to eliminate the lack of sleep having influence, I don't know what to do.
Any ideas anyone?
I have an HTC Vivid that was rooted with ICS that I attempted to S-OFF with the wire trick. Apparently my timing was never right because it didn't work. It would get to the point where is says its still sober... I tried about 10 times then all of a sudden it says phone not found or something. I then noticed that my phone was no longer being recognized by my cpu. I have tried everything. Multiple SD cards multiple usb cables with no luck. My phone was stuck on the boot screen then I loaded a PH39IMG file that wiped everything and took me back to GB. My phone still cannot connect to any of the 6 cpus (Vista/windows 7) in my home even after installing multiple drivers for HTC and PDANET. HELP any way to make my phone work with my cpu? It only charges when connected to cpu. Also any one have a PH39IMG for ICS? every link on XDA is expired

no only the factory recovery as I stated before the wire trick froze the phone and I had to use a PH39IMG from my sdcard that had the original gingerbread stock rom that the phone shipped with.
So are you on the gingerbread one now? If you are you can just root and flash a recovery on that. I think there is a zip that let's you update on here too

I have owned several htc android devices dating back to the g1 and I never had to hot wire a phone until now... that was my brother's phone I told him to get the skyrocket way back when he first bought his vivid on launch day but ah well... I can't give you a photo because he now has the phone. the blue tab is right beside the usb/charger port above the pin that you use to do the wire trick.

I don't think so. Actual 'rooting' takes place within a rooted ROM, but you have to unlock your bootloader first, and even that is not a one-click process. MAYBE if you get the HTC dev unlock code file via email, and place it in a certain folder on your PC, there may be a script out there that could do the rest, but that of course requires a PC with proper ADB and HTC driver setup. Bottom line is I don't think it can be done without a PC.
