I'm having a little problem to S-OFF my HTC One S with rumrunner. When my phone reboots the second time into bootloader, it says:
FATAL: Download updated package at rumrunner's website.I read that I had to turn off my firewall and disable the anti virus but even after doing so, the problem is still there. Anybody a suggestion ?
Try rumrunner with Ubuntu. It worked on the first try for me. Live CD or USB drive should work.

You mean the ubuntu package or in a ubuntu device? Isn't that like trying to run an ios program on Windows?
Ubuntu is an operating system for PC. If you're familiar with any Linux then you can use it instead of Ubuntu. When you have a working installation of Linux or live CD / USB drive, run rumrunner in it.

Will you have to install the linux adb drivers before running rumrunner?

There's no need to install drivers on Ubuntu since the drivers should be integrated to Linux kernel. Just download rumrunner and follow the instructions. Remember to turn on root access for ADB in developer settings and run rumrunner as root user (sudo...).

I just made s-off my Vodafone Desire S European (Spanish). Works like a charm, indeed AlphaRev installed (with my consent) ClockWork recovery.
cool but my hboot is 98002
hi can you post a tutorial on how to s-off my device. I'm noob at this. I'm currently downloading ubuntu installer for windows. Thanks
1) have an ubuntu available (I use ubuntu 11.04)
2) install OpenJDK (java) on ubuntu (if you dont have Java yet)
3) download the Android SDK from developer android website
4) untar (tar xvf filename.tgz)
5) run tools/android
6) install 'Android SDK Platform-tools' and 'Android Compatibility package'
7) make sure your Desire is in USB Debug mode
8) run 'platform-tools/adb devices', and expect to see 1 device, I have one named '???????' but works for me
9) download and run alpharev (as root with sudo)
10) copy the serial from alpharev and get the key in alpharev website
11) introduce the key in command line
12) some reboots and get s-off!!!!
13) installs clockworkmod recovery if you want
xx) Profit!
no... wait we are not in slashdot
I wouldn't bother installing linux, just do it from a cd. No need to install sdk or adb or anything other than alpharevx.

Ho yeah thanks.
My HBOOT is 0.98.0004, so I cannot use AlpharevX? Is there a way to err, downgrade it?

My HBOOT was 0.98.0000, yes a Vodafone branded (from Spain, but I think is equal to UK version).
Okay, COMPLETE ubuntu noob here, so after downloading alpharevx.tgz which is aparently a GTAR file, what do i need to do? Because it wont open as if its an exe file because not windows (herpaderp). Is there a command line im meant to type or am i just being silly?
Thanks in advance.

Extract to a directory or folder of your choice, eg desktop.
Open terminal in this folder & type "sudo ./alpharevx" with your phone connected & in usb debug mode.
Should detect phone, follow instructions.

You don't need to adb.
Just open the terminal and cd to the downloaded alpharevx folder then type "sudo ./alpharevx"
You don't need adb, alphrevx works without it.
1. Exctract alpharevx to an easily reachable place (ex. Desktop)
2. Start terminal and get to that place (with cd command)
3. Run "sudo ./alpharevx"
I think you need to enable HTC Sync mode on your phone but not sure.
ok so i managed all that now it's stuck on alpharevx waiting for device...
I'm doing this on ubuntu through vmware. Could that be the problem?
USB debugging is on by the way!
oh it's also on HTC sync mode.
Virtual machine's hardware access may be limited, don't know. I've ran linux from USB flash.

Don´t need to activate the HTC, as well as any of the options, just connect usb.
Then follow the steps the left Evilmystic, i did it this way.
I can't figure this one out. My Nexus S was running CM9 when I went to wipe it and install a different rom. Now USB will not connect properly. The phone charges fine but no data/adb/fastboot.
The main issue is I no longer have a rom installed and the SD Card is formated too (as I though I could put the file on via adb at recovery but now I can't,
I can boot recovery and download mode but I have nothing on the SD Card to flash. I run linux so I can't use odin. Is there something I can use to flash this phone? Is it hardware?
Thanks!
ADB CMD
if you are on windows 7 you can use CMD to adb push the rom to the phone, just search for cmd on your start bar and right click it and then click run as administrator.
If you need more help then please search google or the forums for more help using ADB method

Why did you just bump a two month old thread lol I also clearly stated I am running Linux and ADB doesn't work either. If it was as simple as ADB it would have been fixed lol
I had to send it under warranty to get it fixed, there was a short in the USB port.

My question says it...
I know it is possible on Google devices, but what about our O1? I had my phone to the service just because I couldn't install the drivers on 4 versions of windows...
Is it possible to use them to save our O1 from a permanent brick?
Are you talking about using adb on Linux to connect to your phone? It's quite possible, actually. It's not Ubuntu, but I was using Arch Linux when I rooted my O1. I bricked it once, but was able to revive it using fastboot. Anyway, check out the Ubuntu documentation on installing the Android SDK on Ubuntu. Once you have the SDK, you should have no problems running adb, etc.

Ok thank you, my problem is that I have no security in case I get my phone with a corrupted recovery and ROM at the same time...
So the phone is detected in fastboot/adb without any additional drivers?(that's what I hate about windows)

For what it's worth, I didn't have to install any drivers at all, and I was able to adb & fastboot just fine. Just be sure to read the Ubuntu documentation on using Android on Linux, just in case there's any configuring needed.

Easy way to install ADB/Fastboot on ubuntu 11.04 to 12.04
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot
I am using VMware Player 7.1.2 to host Ubuntu 14.04 on a Windows 7 PC.
My N5 is recognized by Windows, but not by Ubuntu.
USB Debugging is enabled.
The strange thing, and maybe this holds the answer, when my N5 is booted into Fastboot mode or Recovery (TWRP), Ubuntu recognizes and can access it. It is only when the N5 is booted into Android (system) that it is not recognized.
Any ideas?

I have already followed this instructions from here for configuring ADB access, that is not exactly my problem. My problem is that VMware Player does not recognize my phone and so the guest OS, Ubuntu, cannot access it.

Did u configure USB access within Ubuntu? If Ubuntu can see the device while it's in fastboot mode then it's not VMware issue, its the USB access within Ubuntu

Yep, I configured USB access in Ubuntu like this:
Code:
wget -S -O - http://source.android.com/source/51-android.rules | sed "s/<username>/$USER/" | sudo tee >/dev/null /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules; sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
Hello,
I just got a new U11, hoping to use it to test/debug my Android apps. But I cannot get it connect to ADB reliably. I have tried everything I could, including
enabling developer options + USB debugging
adb kill-server, adb start-server and adb devices
revoking USB debugging authorizations
authorizing & remembering my PC
I've tried countless combinations of the above, but adb keeps showing unauthorized or offline. Very very occasionally adb shows "connected", but Android Studio freezes when I run my app. When I unplug, Android Studio immediately unfreezes. But again, when I plug my phone it becomes unauthorized/offline.
My other Android phone works without any issues. Is it a bug with the stock firmware?
The phone is running stock European firmware, with everything stock (including locked bootloader).
Could anyone please test/confirm this on their Linux laptop/desktop? Any fixes? Thanks a lot!
Strangely, it works on Windows. Maybe Ubuntu kernel update yesterday broke adb :crying:
I get my phone tomorrow and will update adb and try to connect. Have you tried starting the adb server as root?
sudo adb start-server

Yes, I did all adb commands after $ sudo -s
As it works without any problems on Windows, perhaps I should ask on a Linux forum?
For now I would use Windows until I found a solution

I have the same problem.
I have Debian in my computer (MSI GS40 6QE) and in my girlfriend's computer (Asus UX32V) . Same update state in both of them.
I'm unable to use adb or fastboot in my computer but it works correctly in my girlfriend's computer.

Haha, at least the issue is not unique to my phone (and laptop) :laugh:
I suspect Android SDK is most well tested on Windows, at least everything is already set up for you. But Linux allows you to run most dev tools in your HOME folder, so they don't mess things up.
Hopefully someone comes up with a fix.
My Xiaomi running LineageOS (basically AOSP) doesn't have any issue. Perhaps HTC Sense heavily modified some USB options?

I have no problem with my M8 and my computer.
Android "is" Linux. By that, at least, tools like adb and fastboot must be very well tested under Linux :angel:.
Try to open you computer file browser and to browse or copy some files from/to your computer/phone. I'm unable to do that also.
I tried to root my phone in the same day I received it and I was getting really worried because I was unable to use fastboot (I by that I was thinking that my device was defective), even the simple "fastboot getvar all". Then I remembered to switch to another computer and voilà, everything was working perfectly.
Maybe HTC has something broken in the USB3.0 stack.
File transfer and fastboot don't work on my Ubuntu either.

I don't know if it related with kernel (in computer side). I already tried version 4.9, 4.10 and 4.11 (the one I'm running right now).

What Linux distro/version are you running? I've been trying to get this working with Arch and it's driving me nuts!
I run various flavours of Debian and Ubuntu across my machines and have ADB working on them all..

Got it working by downloading adb straight from Google instead of using the Arch package.
