I got the one s and its working perfectly and smooth but only one thing is starting to irk me, and that's the bloatware...I want to get rid of it and heard that there's only a temporary root but correct me if I'm wrong I would like to know if theres a permanent root for the one s to get rid of the bloatware. Any type of advice is really appreciated.

You can use the available root method to remove bloat. Search the forum before asking questions and you'll find answers. Check in development. Congrats with your new phone hope u love it.

there is permanent root for the One S... flash it and use something like titanium backup to remove all the bloatware
--
depends if you want rid of portions of the bloatware..you could just use rootexplorer and knock off the apps you dont need. i do that with sense roms old and new..and get rid of crap like peep etc..
htc needs to get wise to that lol...never understood why they insist on filling there roms full of rubbish..saying that..some people like
Ze swings and roundabouts me thinks...ZE swings and ze roundabouts
Well thx and it would really help if someone would post a thread link so I can get straight to it, I would look around in the forum but my busy hours at work won't let me, and this amazing phone just needs the bloatware completely removed...oh and if you guys know any good roms for the one s, I know they are still in development, but if the essentials work that's all I need to know...thx for taking time to help a noob.

Unlock at HTCdev then use the above link(paulobrien method) it works with US T-Mobile also. Its as simple as connecting phone to PC and installing the file. Presto! Root!
I have US version and it worked fine. After rooting download Rom Manager from play store and use it to flash recovery.

What about the security, I saw it on some of these videos that they have their phone rooted with s-on still on the phone. Do we not mess with the security on the phone?

just got through unlocking the bootloader, everything went great, but just a quick question before i root it, is it safe to run the root from the hasoon2000 kit to the phone that is a tmobile version or should i try the O'brian method? im just curious and take precautions, i dont want to brick my phone at all.
quick edit: i used obrians method, worked good and everything works fine, started up normally with a little lag then smoothly continued, im figuring that thats it....now for a rom anyone has a good rom that is good, i like the same default one that was with the phone, but all i wanted to do was keep everything and just completely take out the bloatware....i dont mind having the themes changed i just want the bloatware out of this amazing phone. thanks for helping me out.

Now that your phone is rooted just use Root Explorer to remove all the extra crap you don't want on your phone. Look in "/system/app" That's where the bloat is located.

WARNING: Bootmanager does not currently support any SGS3 variant. If you don't know what you are doing do not try it.
Bootmanager (by init2winit) is an app that let's you boot multiple ROMs from your sdcard. I bought the full version ages ago for me ol' Moto Droid the original unbrickable of droid (oh those were good times mates).
Now that we have an unlocked bootloader, I'm itching to try it on my vzw SGS3. But, I thought I'd see if anyone else out there had already tried it on any SGS3 variant before I go and fiddle with it all by my lonesome.
Let us all know if you've tried it unsuccessfully or successfully and let us know your methods as well.
I'll report back if I get too impatient and try a manual setup myself.

Toggling through ROMs is a huge chore. Takes too long to load to be functional for me. Maybe that will change if they start support the GS3...
Anyone know if any progress has been made? It'd be fun to have boot manager back.
I was just posting this to ask if anyone had found a way to root gingerbread running the latest OTA, the one where HTCLinkifyDispatcher was added. I had rooted my old shift before (also running 2.3.4) using Vicodan's method, but I then had problems and had to get a new Shift recently, and someone else who was holding my phone at the time installed the OTA so I am unsure as to whether I can still root using any method.
Looking through the posts, I found that the ShiftySonOfA script had been attempted, but does not work on this OTA. However, I do not know about the other methods. If anyone can confirm whether they work or not, that would be great, before I attempt to root my phone and have to stop in the middle of the process. If not, I can attempt the other methods and then post here again with my results as to whether I was able to get root on this OTA.

Hmm yeah that was the one that I read through, the most that Indirect said about it was that he wasn't sure if it would work on this OTA, so I'm not sure myself...hopefully he is though
Also on a sidenote not related to this question...I would love to become a developer. Or even help a developer because I really like this sort of stuff. If anybody would be willing to apprentice me or something like that, that would be great because I would like to (at some point) maybe even make my own root for an Android. Any replies to this are welcome, or pointers as to how to get started and stuff. Thanks in advance!
next month i might be either upgrading both of my lines or cancelling my contract, not really sure yet but either way ill probably be selling both of my evo shifts then. or maybe ill donate to indirect (for root purposes) and pwnyourace (for development purposes (ROMS))
Ok first off, I want to say that yes I have looked at countless threads explaining and asking the same thing, and none of them have been very useful. Maybe that's my fault, maybe it's just want I'm use to in the past. So I want to apologize to people who see my thread and go "Uuugh another retard". I don't want to be a retard or a jerk or anything of the above, but I just feel like nothing in the forums for this phone is as clear or well formulated as the phones I've dealt with in the past on XDA and I don't know why that is. Maybe I just haven't really learned anything from my past experiences
I have the HTC One X (duh) AT&T at software version 1.85, and I'd like to root it and do whatever else I need to do to get to the point of being able to load custom ROMs. My issue is that even after reading several threads, including the ones specifically about rooting version 1.85, I have no idea what to do. I've rooted phones in the past and never had this much trouble understanding instructions, and I think it's just because in the past the guides have always been extremely clear and explicitly stated what I needed, where I got it, how to load it, and how to use it. I've only done a few phones in the past, HTC Inspire, HTC Tilt 2, and an LG model that I've forgotten the name of.
So ok, here is this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709296 What exactly am I supposed to do here, because to be honest the instructions there are terrible. I read through probably fifteen pages of that thread, and felt like an idiot because no one else needed help even starting. So I started looking around, and I found some other posts asking for help, but everyone had seemed to actually have gotten past the initial point. For me, I can't even properly download the su file because it has no file type and Windows is all **** you buddy give it a file type (I just called it a zip file so I could at least have it downloaded.) I also looked at this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672284 thread, and I understand what to do here but from my understanding I should be rooted first so that's a problem yes?
So could someone please assist me with a properly designated and clear set of instructions on how to get my phone to the phase where I can do more with it?
I fully understand if no one wishes to help me, or if this exact issue has really come up before. I've been looking for awhile and just haven't had any luck at all. Thank you for your help if you wish to help, and thank you even if you don't. Have a wonderful day.
I rooted mine with by "faking" an ota update.. that is you have to go to att update (go to settings and scroll all the way down) and from the console push some files to the phone via adb and then hit "update" in the phone.. I can't remember the thread though...
Hope that helps...

OP has linked the correct thread for rooting 1.85. The only working method, AFAIK.
I was completely new to the Android universe and also had problems getting started, but it helped when I figured out what ADB was.
http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html
Basically, what you want to do (per the thread you linked to : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709296)
FIRST - install ADB!
Then :
- pull the SIM card (i didn't do this, but I'm just reiterating the insturctions on that page )
- do a factory reset
- do not connect to the internet after factory reset. Just go into settings and enable USB debugging, and plug the phone into your computer's USB port.
NOW, you can (via USB and the ADB tool which you've researched from my link above) run the commands from that thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709296). So open up a command prompt (start->run->cmd on a Windows machine) and just type everything you see in the instructions in that thread. Doesn't particularly matter if you don't knwo what each command does as long as you follow them faithfully
I'd be happy to walk you through it. Your on the right track though. It'll have to be later tonight though. Pm me and I can get with you after 9pm mountain standard.

After its downloaded, will Windows let you rename the file so there is no file extension? My Windows XP system will allow it, so if you're on Windows 7, I'm not sure what the fix is.
Also, the root guide assumes you have some knowledge of ADB. As it seems your are pretty lost, I'm assuming you don't. Gunny's guide has some ADB basics (although I've been told even this starter guide is missing a few basics):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1754018
I rooted back on 1.73, so a different method. But I'll try to help as much as I can.
Also, if you haven't already seen my index thread, its got all the resources posted in Development, in an organized list. Your issue right now doesn't seem to be finding the right threads. But you may find it useful once you get unstuck from the root process, at least:

Thank you everyone! Wow.
So I'm reading up and doing my best to soak up the information. I found adb and have that downloaded, and I'm reading up on how it works. After looking at it and reading about it I realized that I've actually used it before and had no idea it was the same thing (that was on my older install of windows and when I was messing with my Inspire). I will hopefully later tonight be able to actually go through the process of trying to get all of this done to my phone. I will update once I'm home!

Can you link to the driver that you used? My PC is Win7 x64. Rooting is impossible unless Windows is using a device driver for the tablet right? (I'm 100% new to Android stuff. )
Tried that script but, nothing but "error finding device" or some such message. Yes, usb debugging is enabled and so is unknown sources (same thing as "allow unsigned apps" ? ?). :C :C :C
Searched around a bit and really haven't found the solution yet.
here other program should unlock the dopo 1010. i read and it say it work you can try to see if it works. but it Chinese. im guess there made chinese company lol
google How to Root Teclast A10 Dual-core it be the first link
@jazneo Tried that, nothing. That program won't detect my device and I'm assuming it's because there is no driver and I don't know where to find it.
