i see that a lot of people are asking about AlphaRevX and info about AlphaRevX is spread in several topics in several device forums.
actually i spoke to guys working on AlphaRevX.
i learned that AlphaRevX is tested on HTC Wildfire/IncredibleS.
BUT i was told that DesireS should be also unlocked with AlphaRevX - but closed beta testing was not done on DesireS yet.
only sensation should not work with AlphaRevX for Wildfire/IncredibleS because its setup its a bit different(but im sure someone will work this out eventually).
AlphaRevX could be released until end of this month. at least that seems to be the consensus.
all we need to do is wait (and donate)
great news!
wow great news!!! yahoooooooo! I can't wait for this!

just what i wanted to hear
I still believe that S-Off Desire S would be the same way as S-Offing the Incredible S
The AlphaRevX is a modified bootloader right ?
I hope it will be reversible..(unlike xtc clip) so you could S-ON for warranty purposes.

Congratulations! I sure you would love this phone.. and yeah.. we all waiting to get a software to S-OFF our phones!
Software S-Off? Bring it on!
I'll be looking for more developments hopefully in the near future ...

I would love to learn all this stuff... but i dont know where to start.. so development is not for me.. thinking i know programming in a lot of languages... and i know a lot of hardware stuff... but still... well.. lets hope that someone who knows will make it!

Who told this to you? Was it the developer of AlphaRevX ?? Are you SURE that this will come to the Desire S ? I don't care when, but are you positive this it will support the Desire S? From your post, it seems like an assumption. Thnx
Well.. send the developer a pm and ask him... i pretty sure that it will work on the DS or it will help to make one for DS

yes, i believe they are the main developers of this utility. IEF and KMDM.
KMDM is also posting here on xda-devs forums. you can PM him, but im sure he will not be able to provide more information like i did. we will need to wait until AlphaRevX will be released and someone will test in on desireS or someone will betatest it with desireS.
as i wrote in 1st post, they said it SHOULD work on desireS without any problem.
i sure hope so

Thanks for the info bro. I'll wait about one more month for this. That's the PEAK of my patience. If it's not out by then, I'm gonna have to use the XTC Clip.
Technically the Incredible S and Desire S share the same bootloader security so there really shouldnt be a problem with it working on the DS.

Not out, Desire S support will probably be added after the initial release.

No, from what I understand this is a software method that will make your device S-OFF (the same as the XTC would, except reversible) and then you'll be able to achieve root using either the gingerbreak or superoneclick method.
EDIT: I now believe that you'll need TEMP root to apply the software....continue to read the next posts for more information.....
Hey guys,
Paul O'Brien just tweeted that he received his sensation this morning! That's awesome.
Also, HTC sent him a s-off version!
That should give a massive boost to sensation development.
This is really great, really gives HTC extra points if they give such a big handover to community. That´s the spirit, give an unlocked phone to such a dev.
Just wishing they would do the same for Cyanogen...
I can't wait to see what he has in store! This phone has so much potential once they get it unlocked, it's crazy!
This is wonderful, damn I'm looking forward to see him doing his magic!
HTC shud send him device with S-ON so he can figure out how to S-OFF it.
If he already hv S-OFF device, nothing much todo then
Let's see how fast he roots..... He's usually pretty quick. Go Paul go!
He's running on 1.34.401.1 - new ROM version
I did ask if he was ENG S-OFF or SHIP S-OFF but he didn't reply

Hmm, maybe that is the ROM that is S-OFF by default then, ie the unlocked bootloaders
I think it's SHIP S-OFF, he posted a pic here
If it's ship S-off, he can flash to ENG S-OFF jsut like I did when I flashed a stock ROM
Excited Then, what does HTC do...giving out free devices?

If unlocked and rooted first, I'll stick with HTC. As has been the ongoing theme, the best hackers make stuff for HTC, hence the topic of this thread.

Fantastic news. Htc sent him it with s=off. Hopefully we receive the update as well to turn s-off on our devices (which mines probably isnt) so this phone can turn from beast to godlike.

We have to wait for the public to get their bootloaders to be S-OFF. Once we have S-OFF (whether its through an update pushed by HTC/your US carrier, or an exploit such as Fre3dom through a developer on this website), we'll be able to develop and flash custom roms such as MIUI and CyanogenMod onto our Sensations.

OTA stands for O.ver T.he A.ir and yes, it does have to do with software. Sometimes when you have a smartphone, like a Sensation there are updates to your phone which consists of installing software via the OTA.

theres a beta test program called HTC elevate which is a closed group of 300 or so people, they registered their phones and got the OTA update that way, so its not a leaked RUU, its a final beta rom update before the main public ota release but you can bet its gonna be pretty much like this for final release..

People have been attempting to contact HTC and letting them know that they are in breach of the open GPL compliance act by not releasing the kernel source, which would allow s-off (I think, that's what I get from it..)
See this thread for more info http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1629933
They're pretty much saying it will be out in 90-120 days. Don't get why it takes so long when the one x and one v both got it already, but I'm assuming they have some kind of reasoning for it.

I'm not sure that Kernel Source will do anything for S-Off as the kernel is not part of the HBoot. Unless Kernel Source also includes a new S-Off HBoot, which I doubt it. To obtain S-Off an exploit (like with the Sensation) will need to be found or an HTC signed HBoot that provides S-Off.
Kernel Source will allow custom kernels with speed tweeks, OC/UV, OTG, etc. etc.

What I meant was I hoped HTC released S-OFF HBoot after the kernel sources were released. I doubt they would release a signed HBoot before the kernel.

For those who are interested on getting S-OFF there is a current petition that is requesting this for all HTC devices.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dEVOaXl4R09QV0hqYVFKbElUQ1RZWmc6MQ#gid=0
Give your name to the document if your interested.
Signed, I've no idea why they can make the bootloader unlocked but not give S Off, what other harm would it do, we already invalidate the warranty.

Exactly. That's why its being requested. All they would have to do would release a signed HBoot with S-OFF for each device. Or provide a universal tool. Either way would work for me.

If you could provide S-OFF for the One S that would be amazing.
I hope that S-OFF for one x can be used to develop s-off for one S. I've a vodafone it branded one s and so I can't restore original firmware with RUU_Ville_.exe file.
Iff there is any other devs wanting to work on it I would be happy to get something started?
