[Q]How to S-OFF One S S3 - HTC One S

I bought new phone - One S - and is the S3 model.
Before this I had HTC Incredible S where the S-OFF was possible without HTCDEV. I did some searching on XDA and I couldn't find anything on how to S-OFF ONE S S3 without HTCDEV.
Can someone please help me or write a tutorial?
Thank you!
Cheers,
Matjaz

That's because you can't s-off without htc.dev
....or with htc.dev for that matter.

Thank you for fast reply.
Is there a way to get it back to the original state (S-ON) in an undetectable way for HTC if needed for warranty?
Thank you!

Yeah if we had s off we could edit the text to say anything

Ok seriously. Eleventh post in the development section that isn't development in a few days. That's what Q&A is for! And there is no S-OFF...and won't be for awhile.

..and even when you post in the correct section, with a title like this, please prefix with [Q].

I really wish the mods would ban these n00b users. That's the only true way to keep stupid posts from being made in the wrong section.

thanks! will report bugs. rom looks very good :silly::highfive::victory::laugh:

Mods please move this thread to Q&A section. Or close it.

Try reporting the thread and selecting maintenance/post moving as the reason, that might work better.
Mods of xda operate on report-only basis because there is are just too many threads/posts to proactively moderate

Please post questions in the Q&A section. Also added [Q] to make it clear to all what this thread is about.​

RUU Question

I have a T-MO branded Sensation with S-Off. I'd like to take advantage of the updates that the latest ruu's offer. Can I just go ahead and flash the latest tmous ruu? Will this result in s-off? Thanks.
Since you have a post count of 476 as of me typing this I don't feel bad.
Why the hell would you put something like this, ESPECIALLY WITH THE WORD QUESTION IN THE TITLE, here in the general forum? You've been around. You know better. Also, a simple search would answer your question. Things like this are the reason this forum is clogged. Mods please close.

You have s-off and wondering if applying ruu.. will give you s-off?
ps; that makes no sense

Thanks. Perhaps you can tell me where I can post a question then. I remember a time when you could post a general question in the general forum.
There is a whole other forum titled "Q&A." Questions go there, but always remember to search first. This same question has been answered at least two times that I remember.

Nope, flashing it won't put your phone to s-on. You have to do that manually. There's a how to in the main sticky in the dev forum. Can't link at the moment as I'm mobile.

Rooting a sensation 4 G and installing 4 ext touch recovery

I would greatly appreciate any information on this topic.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA
There are some really great guides to rooting here if you look in search. You will need to know your h boot version in order to follow that specific guide. You can download 4ext recovery here from a link also search, or you can even download it from the playstore. That's what I did, I think its 3.00 but worth it! So find your hboot then you can search for the proper guide. Hope this helps from my HTC Sensation 4G
Also you need to s-off first! Use revolutionary, not htcdev....if it works for you.
There are way too many guides here, you could have tried to search!
This guide will answer all your questions.
If you find it difficult, try this, it will do the same thing, except you won't need to do anything..

This is obvious trolling.
He is asking how to root on May 26th, but he has been asking about rom problems for 10 other roms since about May 20th.
So he has been rooted for a while. This thread is just pointless.

[Q] Getting S-OFF

I know there's a thread for s-off already, but it seems to have stalled? I am looking to start something, and figure it out before I end up contacting HTC myself. First question I have, is there such a thing as a DIAG file for the XL? I see on one x forum that they have been working on a way to use a white card, and this diag file, but they have only one problem, the CID needs to be be a superCID, which most of us with XL already have. I know I do. Please help me help find a way. Thanks.

Glad you wanna join in
I would start tho by reading what info is available, starting a new thread on project development should at least start with something not already being researched in the first thread. Not being rude, but read thru the existing thread, get as many questions as you can answered, and then figure out what questions need to be answered. It really is a practice that makes things simpler, information referenced easier, efficient and much much more productive.
The existing s off thread is in the general forum so anybody can post anytime too, so feel free to read and post, in that order

Yes I have read it over, If anyone can find any hboot that can be s-offed, does it have to be for the evita, or could we use an (ENG hboot?) from the jewel? I have read on one forum that this user flash successfully the evita on to his jewel, and it would boot to the bootloader, which is all you need for some of the o-ff tools, then once you write the S-OFF flag, you should be good to flash any hboot back and maintain that flag?
Anyways, I have read all over, I just can post in the dev forums... yet. I have read them all over time and time again. So this is yet another option to try out.

as 18th.abn rightly reminded us, the s-off thread is in general so you can post to it, just tread lightly...

You were asked to tread lightly in the s-off thread but no you go in there and bombard/pollute the thread with irrelevant comments. The S-off thread is not for you to ask questions. If you have a MEANINGFUL contribution to make by all means do but at this point why don't you sit back, take a deep breath and READ instead of pissing everybody off and making an already tense situation worse,
Please, pretty please. I'm f#$%&ing begging you.

Stupid question from a total noob

Hi there,
I'm coming from the iPhone 4, and I got my 1st Android phone last summer, HTC One S
I got it from Fido (canada)
Since I dont have enough posts, I was told to ask dev-related questions here
I want to root my phone with the All in One toolkit, but I'm not sure if ti works with the Fido HTC One S
Thanks in advance
You should of been told to post questions in the q&a section since that means questions & answers.
And future reference never post an individual question the the dev section unless you are asking in an already established rom or dev thread.
As far as wanting to root, I can't help you there as I no longer see the point in rooting since ics

I agree with you that ICS is good enough

I have a Fido One S and I rooted/unlocked my phone using the toolkit, you should be good to go.
Don't let the toolkit do everything for you, otherwise when something goes wrong you won't have a single clue. Get fastboot running and learn how to send commands and unlock the bootloader through fastboot.

I agree with usaff22. Doing the modifications manually is better.
It's OK to root your One S. The rooting process has nothing to do with the carrier. For example, my One S was locked to 3 UK and I rooted without problems. Good luck!
