What kind of Sensation do you have? You could always change your CID to super CID and then install a RUU from any region.

My sensation software model is 1.45.707.1....I can't find any ruu for this model...

Ahh, OK thanks for correcting, I wasn't diligent enough.

yes I'm s off...I need to send it to htc for warranty purpose....

Are your model purchase origin from sis?
what are you claiming? just to care as i'm from KL
How do you get to know or check the software model no?
mine has the dust under the screen right hand at the centre. i would also wanna make a claim.

So the EVO LTE just got S-OFF

I wonder if this will help our devs get it too.

what are the chances that it will actually work? is it as compatible as the desire hd s-off was with the inspire 4g?

Internally the Evo 4g LTE is our phone with a different radio same chipset and I have to believe the emmc is compatible

Yeah, im definitely holding off any attempts until there is an official S-OFF thread in our own dev section. Right now I could care less about it anyways. I can flash ROMs, kernels, and radios so I'm quite content with my measly unlocked bootloader.

Yep just took a look at it in ubuntu. It appears to write a modded hboot, and considering the evo ships with a different version to begin with, I would not flash this unless you want a brick.

BUT...the goods news is, it can be done Only issue I see is they have an external sdcard and we don't....
BTW...it is for Windows too...I just ran it...not with phone connected of course lol

[Q] S-off on htc one XL ???

hi dear friends I have a dude, I was reading the htc one x intertational version forum and they said that is so hard to get the S-off because the Nvidia has a lot of restrictions, so my question is ..our htc one xl with snapdragon s4 is so hard too??? why not appear the S-off or nobody is working on this?

If you have a look in the development section you'll see there's a thread devoted to this topic. It's a work in progress.

sorry friends my english is not perfect for now, i from peru and spanish is my language, anyway, what i meant is i have a doubt, in conclusion i wanted to know if snapdragon is so hard to get s-off than nvidia tegra 3 ??

It's so easy even a spanish caveman can do it!

I may be wrong ...but its not dependent on the processors...HTC makes it very very hard( think 1000000 x harder than your hardest test you've took) to get s off because they don't want it...we can usually find where theflag is but to crack it is another story that requires incredible amount of intelligence and luck like redpoint said.... There is and never will be a time frame for it just whemeve its figured out its figured out and us not having an sd card isn't really helping us

[Q] Phone bricked! Can someone point me to the right direction?

So I was restoring to a RUU a while ago in an attempt to get S-Off. Well it didn't work out and it failed half-way during RUUing.
When I connect the computer, Windows detects it as "QHSUSB_DLOAD". Parallels detects it as a "Qualcomm Composite" device and I can tell Ubuntu and OS X is detecting it by running dmesg. I've tried two unbricking methods on Ubuntu, am I doing something wrong? I just wanna be able to be able to turn it on and have it working. Can someone help me?

Couple of things. First witch ruu did you run. Second what unbricking methods did you try. And third were you s off before the ruu or s on.

I tried "HTC Unbricking Project" and a fix from here
I was S-ON before running the RUU
I tried the fixes in 64bit ubuntu 13.04 via parallels.

Could you please provide a link to the ruu
Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk

You've bricked your phone, it's very well documented within our forum that s-on + SuperCID + jb RUU = brick. Your only option now is to have a jtag repair done unfortunately. Out of interest, what made you think you needed to (or could) run that RUU in other to get s-off, or before having s-off?
PS. I see now that only after bricking your phone are you reading the PSA that states not to run that RUU while s-on. It's a bit late now, but this is case in point why research needs to be done before the fact.

There's no need for a link, it's the 3.18.at&t RUU that bricks phones if they're s-on + SuperCID.

I cannot remember because it's been quite a while before I attempted this, but I followed a Tutorial on xda of how to do s-off.
----edit
and I didn't believe I could obtain S-Off through just running the ruu, according to the post I read it had to be done. Also I remember resetting my CID (if that's even possible). I did something with it before doing this as the post said to do so.

I hate to say it, but there isn't a single tutorial within our forum that states you need to run that RUU in order to get s-off, I know because I've read every single thread in our forum and am experienced with this device. The only mention of this RUU in regards to s-off is to avoid it if you're s-on, because clearly it bricks s-on devices.

Alright, could you point me in the right direct for jtag repair? Or to buy the tools to do it myself? I wanna learn this type of thing because I may get a job repairing phones soon. (which it's really just replacing screens but I'd like the knowledge anyway)

Well I'm pretty sure it was reset but since you said the only way to fix it was through jtag repair, I figured it wasn't possible and what I read wasn't true (since you seem to be an active member and know what you're talking about)

I wouldn't suggest you even attempt doing a jtag repair unless you're already well versed in the process. In the US it should only cost you about $50 through xda user zarboz.

I remember the CID said to be what it was supposed to be. I wouldn't have attempted the RUU if I wasn't for sure I was doing it exactly like the post said. I wish I could find the post, it's been a while since I've attempted this. The only reason I didn't really work on it after I bricked it was I got caught up in doing other things and I forgot about it.

Ok, well if your CID did indeed revert to the original CID there's no logical reason why the RUU would brick your phone. You could have just gotten very unlucky, it's very rare but an RUU can brick a device for seemingly no reason. Contact zarboz and enquire about him doing a jtag for you, he's a good guy. If you can find that post/thread though it'd be great, I'm very curious to see what it says.

Sent from my Evita

Alright thanks! I'm actually debating on if I should go through with this. $50 is a great price but it also has a crack in the screen and I was intending on eventually selling it.
I'm not sure if after getting it repaired via jtag and replacing the screen that it'll even be worth my time in the long run ha
But I'll keep this guy in mind, let's say my Galaxy S4 gets in a similar situation (gosh I hope not, I'll take more precautions from here on out) but incase it does can he repair all phone brands that need jtag-repaired?

You'd have to ask him which models he supports, I'm not sure.
Sent from my Evita

I'd suggest contacting HTC as well just in case. I had a QHSUSB_DLOAD brick & I called them and they fixed it for me. I know another user here who had similar results with a bricked device. I called and told them it cut off and wouldn't cut back on. They completely reset the phone, but all I had to pay for was shipping.

Listen here. I never once mentioned the type of ROM he wants to flash. I told him that its ok to flash ruu as he's s off.. Its not bad advice. Now if I said "hell yea..flash that insert coin ROM, you would have a valid point.

You told him he doesn't need to flash the boot.img using fastboot, which in turn means he can flash the ROM via TWRP. The point is that you didn't pick up on the fact that this ROM isn't for this device and continued to instruct him on how to flash it. You're the one who isn't properly analysing situations before posting advice, not me, so it's on your head when something bad happens, I'm just trying to save you from bricking someone's phone.

Yeah, like I said, that ROM isn't for our phone. You got it from the HTC One X (Endeavoru) forum which isn't your phone. You need to stay within the HTC One XL (Evita) section and only download your ROMs from there.

Sent from my HTC One XL using XDA

Asking which ROM is best/most stable/fastest/prettiest, or asking for a suggestion isn't allowed so I can't answer that, here's why. To say one ROM is better is to infer that the others are inferior in some way. This is disrespectful to the devs who spend their spare time bringing us these awesome ROMs free of charge. Each user has different tastes anyway, the best way to see which ROM suits you is to flash a few and find out for yourself.
But, you know that 'H' is better than '3g', right? So having that connection is better than having a 3g connection.
