Sky go - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

Incredible S snubbed by Skype?

Despite the uncanny likeness in specs between the IncS and Desire S, Skype have opted not to give us 2-way video calling. A bit harsh to say the least.
I know. The whole S line should have got the Skype upgrade.

They will be rolling it out to more handsets in the future.

hopefully support comes soon

I just used that patched version on my IncS.....works perfectly!

i would love the two way video calling via skype, but the data plan here is slow (eventhough it's 3G) better of just using voice here.

*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

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

Not doubting you, but skeptical. Can you provide a screenshots to show off your Festivus Miracle?
Can anyone (like a dev) replicate your success? Someone who is an established contributor?
There are only 10 kinds of people. Those who understand binary math, and those who don't.

It ought to work, but there are better ways to get perm root if you're bootloader's unlocked. Temp root methods use exploits to break things and get root, but if you've got an unlocked bootloader, you can use legitimate methods to flash su to the proper location. Check the sticky for info on using the SuperTool.

Trick the Play Store

Is there an easy way to trick the market into thinking my Htc one is a different device? There's an app that I want but it's only available to S4 users.

You are looking for an app called Market Helper. I believe it requires root to work.

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
