DONATION FOR Root v1.47.651.1 - THREAD CLOSED

This thread is closed.

new evos come with this installed?? wheres your source on that, first i heard of that.

Id say that where ever people are getting the phone now, the reps there will install the updates before they give it to you.

My source is me. My friend got his from Best Buy this morning, he asked me to root it for him. Then I discovered v1.47.651.1 on it.
My EVO is currently smashed, I am awaiting a replacement. I pray my replacement doesn't come with that version on it but I'm probably SOL on that.

There are still NEW Evos that are coming with stock ROM. I bought another Evo last Thursday from the Sprint website and got it yesterday. It has the 1.32.651.1 firmware and 003 Novatec panel.

I have no doubt that is true. But it's simple logic to figure that eventually those older versioned phones will run out and get replaced by the new v1.47.651.1.

I thought about offering $ as well. Which I may be willing to contribute. But I have the fear that it will cause the free flow of ideas between the devs to stop if they think another dev will crack it first.
They deserve the $, no doubt. But I'm hoping they would be willing to work together and split it up. If that's the case, lets see how high the pool can get.

That's an excellent point. Perhaps it should be donated to the xda forums instead.

Sure, it's possible. But he said the guy handed it to him in the box, and the plastic protector was still on the phone screen.

Can you not just downgrade to a previous version then root? (like what you had to do at the beginning if you already got a phone with the first OTA?)
And since you didnt specify that it needed to be full root or NAND unlock.. you could just use this:

Goes good with that avatar of yours. Want to add to it?

You can count me in for $20, mine had the first OTA already installed.. but I didnt read up good enough and thought root wouldnt be possible so I just said the heck with it and installed 1.47.651.1.. Loving this phone but I know ill love it more rooted with a custom rom..

Yes
Sent from my HTC Panache using XDA Premium App

Yes unlock Sensation Bootloader.

yes unlock bootloader... but this will not help... what will really make htc unlock their bootloader is if we boycott them and say we will not buy the sensation at all if its locked and convince others not to buy it... but its a longshot so i vote yes

Ofcourse Yes!

Yes unlockable.

Remeber the petion made for the ATI drivers? absolutely no use!!

Sorry it's not possibile for me, we must ask for a moderator to change it

I doubt this is the best way to make a petition. Can't we make a petition on Petitiononline.com or something? We would reach a wider audience and get more signatures. We could send it to Android and tech related websites for people to sign. So we can make a more powerful statement to HTC and maybe also Motorola that the public wants to have the choice to do whatever they want with their devices.

Agreed, but the threads in this Sensation section aren't getting many hits. I'd say ask moderators for a petition on the homepage or something that catches more eyes than here.
But great idea, I was waiting for someone to start a petition. Keep up the good work! Let's maximize the potential of this petition!

I agree that the use of a petition web site outside of XDA would be useful. Not everyone who would want to vote is a registered XDA member and I'm not the type of person to be inclined to register somewhere just to cast a vote.
Now, if you were to use something like Facebook... I'm sure you'll get more votes there. Plus, other web sites probably wouldn't have a problem linking to it from their web sites (Android Central, Phandroid, Engadget, etc.).

wont buy a locked sensation
this device sounds like the promise of the year,
but i wont think about buying it till i see the development threads filling with custom ROMs .
i love HTC hardware , but i hate the sense !!!!! and although the sense3 looks better it will still be far behind Cyanogen mods, performance wise .
and as a HERO owner ( hopping soon to be ex ) i know how HTC neglects the old devices . had 1.5, HTC promised 1.6 and then they promised 2.0, and finally when i got 2.1, everyone already had froyo. ahh
I dont want to see their stupid flipclock weather thing ever again
bottom line is:
only when HTC sensation will run CM7 ill buy it..

Why is it locked in the first place? Noobs won't know what bootloader is and so won't be messing up their phones and people like us who mod our phones know what we are doing (or at least think we do) and so won't mess up our phones anyway... Having it unlocked just saves us the time of having to hack it to unlock. Really don't see what they achieve??!?

116 (yes) is better than 5 (not) but I want to know who voted not?
If you don't like Sensation just don't vote... (samsung fans)...

Radio leak / removed threads

A few threads have been removed the past few hours. These are regarding a leaked radio which is known to brick devices and has been taken from a compromised server.
Reposting will not be tolerated. Distribution through PM, or even hinting that you may be available to spread it through PM or other methods, will be treated as open reposting. "Vacations" will be dealt out to those who do so.
This is both for your own good as for the good of others. Some of you are able to read between the lines - I have read it in your posts - and good for you.
Have patience, it will come.

if you build it they will come...

Thanks for posting. This should really be a stickied topic as its a highly talked about subject.

I think the important thing is to protect sources. Not sure if it is bricking or not. Though I don't want to be the one to find out.

I'm not sure, but this probably means GB release is very soon? Wouldn't that make sense?

It got pulled off every site within 2 mins. I just got lucky enough to snag it. But I will not distribute so please no pms asking for it

I decided not to download it I'll wait and see what the devs say on it.

bamf team is coming out with a new sense 3.0 rom(there is a preview zip available in the bamf 2 beta thread) so im guessing there is something coming soon, he seemed to stop once the brick issue came about, so why else would they and others update and create new roms for GB radios.

It wont brink you, its just to protect sources and legal issues probably. Im using it and its much better than the first leak, only got one reboot in the few hours my phone was on

The fact that we have an MR2 Radio means GB could be right around the corner. I have had one reboot with it, (although that might have been a fluke, as the phone had 3% battery left), and so far it is very stable, and I wouldn't be surprised to see an official build out soon.

[Q] Will HTC keep its promise?

As we all know that HTC has promised unlocked boot loaders
as per sources here http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_drops_locked_bootloarders_policy-news-2677.php
As time is passing and no response for company..Even to resolve the issue with HTC sense...My confidence is now a little shakey... Kindly ur sesponse might jst help in thinking the next step

where is the "this post should be closed because a MOD said not to post any more bootloader posts" option?

but bro c the votes...i wanna bring out the losing hopes of buyers...... dont u think so...htc is very slow in keeping promises like 2.3 for desire is not yest out..will b later this month..bt why so fast product roll out and so slow updates roll out.....?

They didn't promise anything about the sensation. This phone was a month from release when that was announced. U had to know they meant phones after the sensation and Evo 3d

He saying people getting tired of waiting they could just let people know if it's getting unlocked or not so people can abandon this phone for a rootable devices. As of now it don't seem like apps are utilizing the duel core power anyways thinking about pulling out my nexus s and enjoy being untamed.

The fact that even new shipments are S-ON just shows that they will not unlock it in the near future.

I really wish people would stop crying over the fact that this phone will have never have it's bootloader unlocked. It's depressing.

Jesus Christ u guys are f***** babies.
This is like the 8th thread about the same thing. There is one Rom avail. If s off was availble u will be complaining about the one rom that is present and u want more. U have root and u have the overclocking ability now. U know what u were getting into during the purchase. The ones that are complaining should have just held out till s off has been implemented.
U want it so bad develop it.
Humans are working on s off not robots. The phone isn't even a month old so pull down your skirts and stop complaining. They already said the developers are bricking their phones trying to get s off correctly. So do u still want them to rush it? Than that will be something else you guys can ***** and moan about. Than 100's of threads will pop up:
I Bricked My Phone Trying To S-Off...It's HTC Fault.

No, we don't have the overclocking ability with the Sensation, only with the Evo 3D, get informed before taking such a superior-I-m-more-adult-than-you tone.
We can only downclock so far, it won't go over the stock 1188Mhz.
As it was said here before, whether HTC unlock the Sensation and the Evo or not, they could at least answer YES or NO. It has been one month with not a single official piece of information from HTC about this.
The work of devs on these devices is amazing, no need for them to rush in, they already did better than HTC did, when for HTC unlocking our devices would just be so easy.....

No offense meant, I also understand your point of view. I just wish HTC could be clear and communicate........

its hardly old news since it happend TODAY.
Sorry but thats a random thread with a stupid name,im supposed to just magically know theres a post mentioning it in there?
I searched it came up with nothing so I posted it because there is no thread about it.
People are not going to find a random post in an unreleated thread.this is news in its own right so it gets its own post.

Sorry for this. I'm kind of gaga today. That wasnt nice .

Two possibilities - DHD update cancelled for the Telus carrier, or the update cancelled for ALL DHD models. None of these should affect the Desire S or Incredible S. We already have ROM leaks. There is no way in hell HTC would release the updates in China and not the rest of the world. We'll get the update, I'm 100% sure. (and seeing that you're from O2 Germany, you may be among the first to get it )

Thats about Desire HD not Desire S....lets keep it Desire S talk in here guys...least in terms of worrying if X is going to happen in the future...
