Hi... You should really be more specific , what version of android are you using? As of the new update not all versions can be unlocked anymore ...
Make sure you close sync manager down all the way "EXIT" OUT ... As when I did my cell this had to be done to work

then you're stuck.
The Root method is only good on firmware version 1.85 android 4.03

Is there anyway I can go back to android 4.0.2?

Negative.
Like I said, you're stuck. At least until a root exploit is found or HTC allows us to unlock the boot loader without hackery.

Well ain't that a *****. Lol

[Q]root for villec2 (4.0.4)

I have gone from TrickDroid to stock Rom because the OTA update.
Unlocked my bootloader and tried to root my device like with the 4.0.3
, but I didn't succed.
The SuperSu app is nowhere
Can anyone make the root for(4.0.4) or I must go again to stock(4.0.3) to root my device and flash a rom?

You have to unlock your bootloader and then flash TWRP with fastboot. Then you can flash the supersu bineries. Thatstge way I rooted mine.

I am running 4.0.4 and it's rooted the way I described it.

Thanks but i didn't finish anything yet.
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash TWRP
3. By PC opened the bat. file from superboot r1.zip(bootloader mode)
No supersu
Correct me if I'm wrong in the steps

Helping with root method for 3.18

Okay so I am talking to a dev from the Incredible 4g community. We need all the steps to get a fully working exploit. He knows how to get temp root. What do we need to do after a temp root is established?
This is not me developing this is me letting a dev work with my phone. Any negitive feed back is not wanted. If you want to say anything negitive. Please inbox me.

-hexedit CID to 11111111
-follow the s-off exploit
Once you've got s-off, you can change your CID to 22222222 and use htcdev to unlock. After that, it's just a matter of flashing recovery and a rooted rom.

Thank you so very much. But can I run an s-off program even though I have a 2.14 hboot?

Why would I need to? And can't you only do that if you have a recovery made?

Don't pick on Doug, guys. He's paid the price for his lack of vision.

i liked Doug, i just always thought he was more knowledgeable until people started picking on him. he just seems to be acting like he isn't. i do like that he is being proactive about root methods for jb, which is pretty awesome of him. he does make alot of threads though =)

Looking forward to any news. I can't believe I upgraded to 3.18 without checking to see if there was a root exploit!

Is it possible to use supercid and then unlock bootloader? And then flash the recovery stuff and root like in this video?

2.20 root help

this is my personal experience it is not my fault if it doesn't work and damages your device. i was rooted via the one click method before the jelly bean update on ics BTW. *I attempted to root via one click method but to no avail.I then used super-CID (onexroot, com) to change the Cell IDentification, ion number to allow the bootloader to be unlocked. I unlocked the boot-loader via HTCdev (htcdev, com/) .then I flashed TWRP( teamw, in/) custom recovery. after that i flashed the Superuser files ](onexroot, com) then i followed the instructions to get s-off ](android police, com/2013/02/18/s-off-now-available-for-the-htc-one-xl-and-droid-dnaheres-how-to-do-it) not a senior member so it won't let me post links.

[Q] New to HTC One S

hello everybody! ive had a iphone for about 2 months now and couldnt take it anymore so i just bought a htc one s! i want to root it but i want to make sure i know everything that need to be done. i see the videos and the step by step processes but i have a few questions. every tutorial i see looks to be done on ics. i bought the phone and it was already on android 4.1.1. do the tutorials still apply? also when i plug my phone into my laptop it doesnt have the charge only/ sd mount (or whatever its says) like it does on ics version....it just says usb connected and wen i tap that it goes into hotspot and tethering options. it is a htc one s S4 so can someone please help me? thanks

You can still unlock boot loader the same way. To get s-off go through the development section till you find moonshine s-off
Sent from my One S using xda app-developers app

Ok now what exactly does s off do and do I have to do it in order to root?
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda app-developers app

No you don'tHAVE to do it. All you have to do is unlock boot loader. S-off just allows you to flash whenever you want. If your s-on you have to flash the boot.IMG from the rom.zip through adb

Oh ok. So how do I go by rooting this thing when I'm on android 4.1.1
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda app-developers app

You can use hasoon2000's toolkit to unlock the boot loader then install a recovery

You don't necessarily have to s-off except for certain things. If you want to flash custom ROMs, can be accomplished even without S-Off

There are these ROMs TrickDroid and zenROM. Sense 5 based. Head over to the Development section you'll find them there. Read the requirements for flashing the ROMs. If it says S-Off is a must only then should you go for it. Otherwise no need.

It's not that difficult. Also try non-sense ROMs like CM 10.1, ILLUSION 2.0 by $droyd$ (very good and stable ROM), PACman ROM.
best of luck.
