Guys, what is the current free method to S-OFF the HTC One Mini 2 without having to buy Sunshine? I would like to upgrade the firmware to solve this problem and was hoping there exists a free method.
I've tested rumrunner 0.5.0, but always get this message about missing 32-bit libraries - but which?
Please wait....
ERROR: need more 32-bit libraries
FIX IT, yes, YOU fix it now!!!FIX IT NOW!!!!!

How'd your do this? this is the first report I've seen of successfully getting s-off on 1.56. This gives me hope.
What method and how many attempts did you make? Mac or Windows?

I tried all kinds of methods best known to me but none worked while I was on kitkat version 4.06.651.4) using firewater.so this is exactly what I did,
I upgraded to software version 4.06.651.9 (kit kat) before firewater actually worked.So if you really want to achieve s-off using firewater,then you have to upgrade to the latest version number of kitkat.
1.Upgrade to the latest version of kitkat(4.06.651.9)
2.Unlock boot using htcdev.
3.Install custom recovery and superSU to get root access.
4.use firewater to achieve s-off.
Infact firewater worked the first time I tried after installing the latest software(4.06.651.9)
So I advice you to install the latest software and keep your eyes on the phone to grant super user access.
hope this helps.
Hi there, sorry for my first post being so needy...
I am trying to root my HTC J One and it seems that I first need to S-OFF the device. I'm trying to use Rumrunner as my bootloader is at 1.54 unfortunately...but I get the error "looks like device is not rooted AND lacks an unsecure kernel. su or FU!!"
I'm using the HTC Universal version of rumrunner as there doesn't seem to be a device specific version for the HTC J One.
I've uninstalled HTC Sync Manager and uninstalled my virus scanning software and turned off my firewall. Anyone have any suggestions on where to go next? Thank you for your help!

Firstly, only the Verizon HTC One needs to be S-OFF'ed prior to root. All other models need to be bootloader unlocked and rooted to get S-OFF.

I have unlocked the bootloadres using Revone... otherwise you may try Rumnummer.

It seems as mentioned here that Revone / Rumrunner are needed to unlock the bootloader, but neither seem to be working (revone doesn't work as my bootloader is version 1.54, I did try it anyway though...and rumrunner gives me the error mentioned above...
Or is all of this unnecessary to root it? I kind of hope it is!
I'm sorry to bump...does anyone have any suggestions?

If you have exhausted the many combinations for firewater and you are receiving the whelps this sucks message then your another alternative is the paid S-OFF Sunshine.

Is that a guaranteed s-off? I wouldn't want to waste 25$
It isn't wasted. It does compatibility checks before it does anything. Most important thing is to have stock kernel for it to work

Try flashing a newer firmware?
[Guide] HTC ONE Hboot 1.57 Root S-Off Change CID Downgrade Hboot & OS
Search the above phrase on google. The first result should be from the site forums(dot)gsmhosting(com) with the title same as search.
I am a new user so I can't post external links.
I used that guide to achieve S-Off on my HTC One M7 UL with Hboot v. 1.57.
I had to run the final firewater commands several times before firewater launched finally. Enough tries to make me memorize those commands so I stopped copying and pasting them and instead actually typing them. But it worked for me.
I hope it helps.

Have you checked settings to see what network mode is checked? Check each one separately to see which one gives the best results. Auto generally works best! Did you have a GSM or CDMA phone?

I want something free, I don't have any credit card or paypal things.. and I went to a service in my town and guess what, they didn't know how to unlock it. (they guessed it has a hardware malfunction if the device doesn't require any unlock code when you insert another sim..)

Sorry you won't find much support on your phone here
your only the 2nd person I've heard that has one.
If HTCDEV.com doesn't unlock it and the temproot methods don't work I'm lost.
HTC Dev won't work.. because I need Super CID and for SCID I need Super User, about temproot I don't know much.
Maybe I could use temproot combined with rumrunner? (is there any tutorial of using temproot ?)

Hey guys, so I have this device rooted. The problem is that I am unable to remove system apps to free up space due to not having S-OFF. I have tried to use Moonshine and Firewater so far. Moonshine does not support this device and Firewater failed. I am thinking of trying out Rum Runner. Can anyone suggest a possible way to get S-OFF? Thanks in advance.

I tried Revolutionary and got
Code:
_rawadb_handle_msg: unknown command 48545541
Granted it's hboot 3.19, which is unsupported in favor of 1.06. Rummrunner, firewater, and moonshine all fail/unsupported and unrevoked is mia right now.

S-Off is still not working for our devices. I've tried different things again and again but there are kernels on the forum (I'm not sure which device you have), that will allow you to remove the write protection (VM/Sprint/Boost, Cricket). Sunshine, moonshine, revolutionary, and rumrunner don't support the device. Firewater is discontinued. Unrevoked doesn't work, kinda figured that. Haven't given AlphaRev a try because I couldn't get USB connection through VirtualBox. Just got that to work the other night so I will give that a go but given that the device has been released less than five months I really don't see it working. AlphaRev doesn't work.

Revolutionary (http://rev.alpharev.nl/) supports only Desire not Desire 510.
Sunshine should work (they confirm it does). at least for the Desire 510 CDMA 32 bit. It just is just not free $25

HTC 0PCV1, is this the same as the 510 ?
Will Sunshine work on the 0PCV1 version as well ?
Once the S-OFF is set, does Link2SD work ?
