I have recently bought a desire s and an xtc clip pay as you go. I followed instructions and everything completed ok.
Im now s-off and debranded and rooted
But the sim unlock did not work, im still locked to orange uk.
If anyone has had any experience with xtc clips i would appreciate it. I dont want to buy another credit for it to fail again
Thanks again

I do not think the xtc clip does a sim unlock. Debranded ROMs have nothing to do with carrier locks I'm afraid.
XTC clip usually fully unlock the phone, including simlock.
For those wanting to have a look on the PAYG clip, check here : fonefunshop.co.uk/cable_picker/96007_XTC_Clip_PAYG_(Pay_As_You_Go_-_Red_XTC_Clip).html

I saw their website, and seems that they are selling Payg without debranding option and you need to pay extra fee to get that.
that's what I understand from website
contact them to be sure
Hi what you do is unlock using the xtc clip and then on the goldcard created u put a generic htc image that u can extract from exe of this forum and then enter bootloader again with card in and the bootloader will then initiate the "upgrade" to generic software for you.
If u not sure theres a guide in the desire s forums.
Ive done it this way and im running generic software

XTC clip cannot root, XTC clip makes your phone S-OFF, you can after that downgrade the phone and root it!

Hello raskal, please tell me what should i do to make fastboot flash command working.
I unlocked my desire by XTC, security is off CID is Supercid, but fastboot flash is not working. i cant flash recovery.
Itried to do this by putting PB99IMG.zip on sd, and flash over recovery, and fastboot flash recovery ....... and both of the doesn`t work.
I can also confirm it works, i have had mine done and very chuffed!
A CoreDroidMoD rom is on its way
P.S
You can root it with GingerBreak after S-OFF
is there any other way to make it S-Off apart from the Xtc clip? or is there anywhere you can get it done, instead of buying a Xtc clip?
Xtc it's the only way currently, people Are working on a software method....
Some people offer a mail order xtc service, where you send your phoner to them, they s-off it and then post your phone back, should be about quarter th the pricE of buyinG xtc online
you'll need to find an unlocking shop that does this in your country

Some questions about the clip itself:
Are there more types of clips? if you buy one will it certainly give you s-off ?
If you buy one, will it work for future model phones (then it might be worth the money)
If you buy one and get s-off, is there allready the certainty of getting root?
Thanks

Only 1 type of clip - Although a payg clip is in testing elsewhere on forum.
It will certainly give you s-off.
noone can accuratly say whether it will work on future models.
Yes you will certainly have root after s-off

As ben_pyett already said it's the only way right now - unfortunately as I see it they (HTC) do the same with all the new ones coming out...
If I'll have time - something I'm always lack of - I'll make up a proper rooting guide with pictures.
In the meantime if somebody needs S-OFF just send me a PM.
BTW see you soon Ben

naybe use a goldcard and downgrade?
i don't know...
Currently the Desire S can only be unlocked by the XTC Clip, however i dont know if the software is public yet (dont have one). Since the release of the Incredible S alot of people have tried breaking the code, but at the moment of writing no-one has gotten trough.
Downgrading is not usefull, since there are no older builds which have the wpthis exploit in it. If you got a signed rom that has an Eng Hboot in it, it will be possible but currently its not possible....
does any dev have Desire S?
None does as far as i know, and there are few with a Incredible S so testing is also hard to do...
But i can assure you if the IS is s-offed, the DS wouldn't be that hard to port to

If you live in London then read this thread and visit one of the xtc clip owners that are in London (there one in West and East) that offer the service for a reasonably low cost.

But my question is how to check my phone is s-off? Volume down + power doesn't helping. Only fast booting.

If not, then I have to buy one for my self.
Hi guys
I am about to buy a chacha. However now the custom Tom fun seems to take off, I'm afraid to get a chacha that doesn't have S-Off and therefore makes me miss all the fun. Is the a place that is known for selling S-Off units? Or should I not be conserned about this at all as it might also be possible to turn a s-on unit into a S-Off unit?

You need to have luck to get your device delivered in an S-OFF state. You can however turn it from S-ON into S-OFF, by buying the XTC Clip from here It costs about 50 dollars, so it's not quite free.
I think I could be willing to spend the 50 dollars on that xtc. The only thing that would make me hesitate is that HTC might just unlock that bootloader as it with the sensation. Or would you think that that would be unlikely?

Seen that there are no custom roms yet, I wouldn't buy it yet. Two parties might release a free unlock: AlphaRevX and HTC. Though I doubt HTC will unlock the chacha, it is one generation behind the Sensation.
I'm going to get an xtc clip tomorrow,
I would say people could post me their chacha and I'll s-off for a small fee. But not sure I would post my phone to some random bloke on the web (i could be anyone!)
Then again the payg version is only ￡22 on eBay anyway.
I'm getting the full one as some people at work want theirs done.

There is no software option for this (atm)... Look for somebody with an XTC Clip nearby! This will remove Simlock and S-Off your device...
There's a list of XTC Clip owners around in the forum, but I can't find it right now, sorry!
