So now that we have S-Off, I decided to do a bit of research on how to get rid of the red HTC disclaimer and the word "Tampered" from the bootloader screen.
Seems that there is only one way to get rid of "Tampered" and that's to re-lock your bootloader and then flash a RUU.
Whether the word stays gone after you re-flash a custom recovery and ROM/kernel I can't say for sure.
As far as the HTC disclaimer you see on boot-up, It can only be removed by flashing a RUU. As soon as you flash a custom recovery, it'll come back.
I found a thread called RegawMOD which allows you to either delete that red text or change it to whatever you want.

They also have a thread that has instructions on how to make a plugin for your device so that you can also use his tool for your device.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1776900
And yet another thread with a list of current plugins. Maybe one could be used as a template for us?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1786498
I would absolutely love to see this tool become a reality for oneS users and I know I'm not alone in this.
Would probably donate if it worked perfect without issue.

I tried making a plugin, succeeded, but the tool bricked my phone and put it in QDL mode.
That sucks I made the plug-in too but haven't flashed yet. now you got me worried. More than likely you accidentally messed up a digit of one of your offsets but I don't know that for sure.

Can't Tecardo fix that with the riff box? and if he can he be best to test it.
Do we need a seperate plugin for each h-boot version?

It's entirely possible. But I had triple checked it. So you might think that everything is correct, and then try it, and you have with you a paperweight.
And when you don't have the money to get it fixed, it's going to prove difficult getting it done freely.

Now that's a great offer!
Also my plug-in will be going into testing soon as Tec can revive his device should I mess it up, however, i feel cautiously optimistic it will go fine and you will be customizing your bootloaders in no time. Now Tec just needs his test device up (not his s3).

Although my parents say I'm not allowed to send it over, because of issues of sending an expensive item overseas. At this stage I think I will visit my carrier, but thanks anyway for your kindness
edit: I deleted the plugin I had made out of frustration with myself for bricking it, so I can't send it or try it somewhere else

but i do think we should get our devs up there :]
I maybe wrong but it looks like the only thing you can flash for the CDMA Hero is a recovery image, no ROMs yet.
Seems similar to Flipz Kitchen...which is out to donators now! Hopefully this doesn't start another donnybrook around here!

nothing wrong with choice unless he borrowed some stuff from flips?
Is it just me or does everybody just way prefer to take the few extra steps to do this stuff myself I never trust one of these so called auto anything basically
I trusted the Kitchen to root, because I mean what harm could it do. But Flash a Rom? Not a chance I am trusting anything but my self.
I think I will stick with the fresh kitchen until some more reviews hit about this. Wonder if the dev has any sort of checks to make sure you aren't about to really screw up???
ill do it whats the worst that could happen... bad flash? no big deal just boot into recovery lol....
dont be scurd
Something gets labeled wrong in the app you flash it thinking o it says its OK to do and it bricks your phone so yea called me scared but I prefer my phone useable not in paperweight mode
I downloaded it. Looks promising... I hope it works!

I dont know about this one, seems to say Sprint hero, but who are these people ? I think id rather stick with flipz fresh kitchen. Get the donate version for testing. Help the kid out. It is def worth checking out.
I'm hoping that this isn't something dumb on my part, but my touchscreen only worked for about an hour and then it just stopped working after that - I had it in sleep mode for awhile. I tried a data wipe and even drained the battery dry, but so far no change.
Has anyone seen this issue? I'm hoping it's something fixable and not a hardware problem. Or if anyone has any other ideas, that would be appreciated -- thanks! I'm also trying to track down that new update to see if maybe that might help me.

Not even rooted. I had used it for about 20 minutes, put it in sleep mode, then tried it a few hours later and the touchscreen stopped working.
I also tried the Modaco update (later on), but that doesn't reflash everything - it's more of a supplement (I made nandroid backup so I can undo).

Dang... Get a new one! Glad to see you on this device, not going to lie. I was about to pull the trigger on a vgt until i heard about this device.
Other than the fact that the touchscreen is borked , it seems very nice. A little larger than the Xoom, but feels lighter. Screen ratio seems similar.
I was hoping to do some screen comparisons versus the Xoom, to see if this IPS is superior. Kinda hard to do that now - my hope was that this would replace my slow but reliable R10.
Have you tried doing a complete factory reset?

I was going to do the same thing that I did with the Xoom, which is post on Slatedroid and then link from here - in my mind, the sharing of knowledge being the most important thing. But I don't think XDA rules permit that unless I support both areas - I think I could manage that, though.
Of course, my device is in no shape for any modding right now. Still, I might try a Ventana image just for the heck of it. I'd just like to know if my problem is hardware based or not.

He's a troll, I suggest putting him no ignore.
So, I got 2 TBolts off ebay with cracked screens for $245 (total, for the pair). Figured it was a good buy since I could replace the screens myself for fairly cheap, then sell one and keep one. I get them, and I notice that there's no VZW branding anywhere on one of the phones. I boot it into bootloader and it says "S-Off", whereas the VZW branded on says "S-On". Did some quick googling for "unbranded thunderbolt" and read this
(damn, ca't post links. Google for "unbranded thunderbolt" and click the first link to see pictures of the bootloader and phone that I'm referencing)
The bootloader screen pretty much matches what it says there.
So, here's my question...is this phone an extra-special one that I shouldn't mess with? Should I not replace the digitizer/screen with one that has a VZW brand on it? Should I resell it? I'm not a developer, so perhaps it better served in the hands of a developer? I'm really not sure what I should do with it, but I figure that you guys might have an idea.
(looooong time lurker [since WM 6.1] first time poster)
what is the hboot number? if it is 1.04.2000 eng s-off then prolly it is a device that someone has previously rooted. if the hboot is the 0.95.0000 the it prolly is an unbrnaded test phone.
its kinda neat to have foound such a thing,maybe worth some searching to see if all 0.95s were s-off,or just some. if only some came that way,id try and find a way to pull the hboot image off the phone so youd have it to put back if you ever wanted to.
if all 0.95s were s-off,maybe its not such a big deal.
at any rate,theres really not much special about it other than that,and its not worth any extra $$. id fix it and take advantage of the s-off to flash shadomites permanent patched hboot,wich is all around better.
the 0.95 is not an engineering hboot,just an unlocked phone used by pr-release testers.
The only other thing I could think of is it has some cool development/debugging apps on it if it is in fact a pre-release phone. Although I think a few of our devs already had their hands on some pre production test units before the phone was released. So it might be a kinda moot point now but don't take my word for it LOL.

Also, neither one of them have active accounts, yet the unbranded one still shows a 1X connection and can (slowly) browse the web. Weird...

Didn't the phone have "with htcsense" on the info pages on best buy's old online advertisement and ces? Then changed to "with google"?

This is a set of rooted and unrooted Odin One-Click Packages. If you're unfamiliar with these, it is the factory firmware loaded in a compacted version of odin and flashing is executed in a single click. No need to check boxes, or worry about what slots to load etc. I do not own this version of the s3 so these have not been tested. They're packed in self-extracting 7z archives. They will not affect your flash count.
Windows PC with Samsung Drivers installed is required.
Shouldn't be any problems but I am not responsible for any that may arise.

Main reason being is that sxtpdevelopers is the only reason I got the tools and instructions to make these. In addition to that, sextape is a big contribitor to alot of great stuff including most of the leaks we recieve and the site survives off of ads and donations so I do what I can to increase traffic. (plus Im not a big fan of this site as it ****s on the people that contribute most of their time helping others so I dont mind directing traffic elsewhere.):laugh:

Thank you very much billard412 this has sticky written all over it.
There are a lot of people that came to the GIII from other devices, and the big bad foreign God Odin seems to scare them. IMOA it's a very underutilized and overlooked tool. 1 click and you have a new base band (modem), kernal, ROM, RPM, PIT and as long as you can get into download mode it doesn't matter what state of confusion your phone is in at the time, it's saved my arse more times than I can count.

Being a sprint user I am not 100% on how the locked thing works. To my understanding tho you needed something special for an unlocked bootloader to flash so there was no way to load it into this. So no

I am having this issue since day one. I bought the Nexus primarily for testing out the developer preview. I flashed to it, everything worked fine. But as soon as I entered my sim and restarted, phone turns it's radio off and displays "Please turn off Airplane mode to place a call" when dialing a number and displays no service.
Also through the code "*#*#4636#*#*", I noticed I couldn't turn on the radio through the "Turn On Radio" button. Whenever I press it, nothing happens.
If someone can help with this, then that be great!

Sorry, I should have mentioned in the OP, I have tried every factory image available for the Nexus 5. Nothing changes. Even tried relocking the bootloader and unlocking it. No clue what is wrong. :-/
Very strange... Do you have another SIM card to try? Not sure if it would make a difference, but it's worth a shot.
Edit: Haha I thought I was the only one crazy enough to consider getting a Nexus 5 just for the Dev preview XD
I didn't go through with it though.
...Not yet anyways

I am not regretting my purchase. Love the phone on Android L. Just that if the phone functionality worked.... xD Anyways, I have a secondary phone in use now. Plus yeah, tried other SIMs. Same issue. :-/

Huh must be a hardware defect then.
Are you considering an RMA?
Oh, and do you think I should go ahead with my idea to buy one for Android L (was it worth it)?

If flash factory image don't work, tray other SIM, if don't work use warranty.

No RMA. I would recommend you wait for the final release. I don't wanna blame Google neither I am sure but I think Android L messed up my Radio in the first place. So yeah, wait for release and try to see if the final one has it all sorted.
