Hi Guys,
I am running my phone on android 2.3.5 and hboot version 2.00.00.2. I was exploring on the net, how to root android but could just find that the hboot version on htc desire s has to be 0.98.0000 which is suported on revolution.io website. Is there any other way to s-off my phone to go for rooting.
Thanks in advance for your help.

unlock your bootloader via htcdev site
and than just flash superuser from recovery
Hi guys, I don't mean to hijack the thread, but just to avoid making an unnecessary one, I thought I'd ask my question here.
I've been looking at htcdev, and I understand that it doesn't officially support the ds, but it works. It's probably a stupid noob question, but assuming I select 'desire' on HTC's drop down menu, how imperative is it that I get the exact RUU? There isn't one listed for my provider (o2 uk). Googling, and searching on a few forums has turned up nothing, but my software details are:
2.3.5 with sense 3.0
Soft. Num. 2.10.401.8
I was under the impression the 3 digit string pertained to the provider, and o2 tends to use x.xx.701.x.
Is it completely necessary to find a specific RUU, or is the region the only real important factor? Would the HTC eu one be suitable?
Thanks in advance for your help guys. Never got.round to rooting my old desire, but 'upgraded' to the s before I realised it wasn't as easy to root!

Well, I got a AT&T HTC ONE X( it's xl actually ).:victory:
I need to ROOT that.It said that if I want to root that.I need to unlock that first. So I try to unlock the phone by HTCDEV.
One click root not work.
One click unlock not work.
Then there came a error with a error code 160. MID ERROR.
Well,then I read some materials and know that unlocking the phone need to root first...
Okay, now I have been totally confused with that.......
Anyone can tell me how to deal with that?
Oh, my version is 2.20.502.7 710RD.
It said that it is a root-available version?
Please help me , I am not so familiar with them.

If you really searched you would simply have to type HTC one x 2.20 root and find that it is unrootable yet
Hi lucentworld
You don't need root to get a custom rom onto your phone. Once you follow the HTCDEV instructions, then you can unlock the bootloader.
Once the bootloader is unlocked, the phone is unlocked to be able to put whatever custom recovery on it you want
Once you have a custom recovery installed then you can put whatever custom ROM on it you wish.
Just because 2.20 is unrootable, this means you cant get root on the standard ROM. But once the bootloader is unlocked, that ROM goes in the bin anyways.
The HTCDEV way DEFINITELY works. I did it on my sisters One XL telstra without rooting first, she was on the latest unrootable ROM.
Good luck

Thanks for your insult. Hope you get banned for your rudeness.
I did not know ATT blocked unlocking. Here in Australia, we don't have such anal carriers. I was able to unlock my sisters One XL by the HTCDEV way. I was simply mentioning the way that I achieved unlocking. Nice overreaction.
Damn, after reading the guides myself. It looks like you are pretty screwed if you have the ATT One X on that version. I was a bit thrown by the mention of One XL. Here in Aus, we have the One X (international tegra quad core) and the One XL (qualcomm dual core). Its a little less confusing, One X = quad core One XL = dual core. It seems in the states, you have ATT One X = dual core, Rodgers One XL, and International One X

Sorry I had to wake up to do hw and pretty tired...so both versions are in Australia? Why didn't you go with the tegra.?
seuppt hollow
LOL, no probs dude,
The Telstra ver. has LTE
And 3G coverage that covers most of the country
Vodafone, Optus and virgin are left with the One X (tegra)
I am happy with the performance and battery life of the One XL, the missus has a Tegra One X, and I really cant tell the difference. Both were just as hard to Root/Unlock
Good Luck OP :good:
So the only thing I can do is to wait for a method to root the 2.20?
Damn AT&T...00

Goo manager is the EASIEST and LEAST SAFE way to install recovery.
I would help german guy but I don't understand german.

Hey guys. Im new to Android (and HTC) so pardon me if i get anything wrong.
I recently bought an HTC One S - career unlocked. It doesnt seem to be able to find the android 4.0.4 and sense 4.1 ota update. Im on 4.0.3 and sense 4.0.
I do not know the region of my one s (i'm using it in Pakistan). The build number is 1.11.415.124. Perhaps anyone of you can tell me what is the region of my one s?
Moreover, Since it is career-unlocked, can i flash a European ruu that would allow me to get the 4.0.4 update?
I need to change the build number (i.e. flash another ruu WITHOUT ROOTING or S-OFFing) as my one s does not offer my language, which is "English (Pakistan)". It mainly supports arabic and middle east country names are listed.
I hope i made myself clear. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Go into your bootloader. (Power down and when powering on the device you press the power button+Volume down.) Get the hboot number and get a europe ruu that matches your hboot.

My hboot version is 2.09.001.

Hboot 2.09.001 is S3 device and you can check CID before flash RUU by fastboot command (Search in google)
"fastboot getvar cid":good:
my cid: HTC__038
which RUU should i prefer ?

I know my One S is the s3 version. However, i do not know where to download the ruu based on my hboot. Any help there?
You need a Asian/Indian ruu with the mainver greater than your current version 1.11.415.124 , just run the ruu greater than 1.11.415.124 it should be named HTC asia , no you can't run a HTC Europe ruu ,
