Hi, I bought a 2nd hand phone that is factory resetted clean. But when I wanted to update the kitkat version from 4.3 to 4.4.2, it won't update. I researched and concluded that this is a rooted phone because I saw in the hboot that it's s-off. I've also read that when a phone is on s-off, our OTA updates are blocked. I would really need some help. I don't mind being a developer(cause I might sooner or later but not now because I'm new to HTC and I want to experience it first.) or not. I just want to get the latest version of kitkat 4.4.2 so I can get Sense 6. I would really appreciate help!

i need t a tutorial im android stupid i need details
i really need bulletproof cause now my htc mt4gs is freezing and overheating and have to constantly remove the battery
you can flash roms if your already unlocked.....s off and root are two different things.you can root with mr root then flash a rom through cwm. however there is one more step to flashing a rom which is flashing the kernel. which you can find out in how to flash roms s on unlocked in development
I told you exactly how to do it in the last thread you made. Upgrade to the newest OTA, unlock using the HTC Dev tool, flash CWM, then flash the superuser .zip through CWM. There you go, now you have a rooted phone that is still S-ON Unlocked.
The only real benefit to doing S-OFF is the ability to flash kernels without being connected to a PC.
You couldn't even post in your old thread huh?
Sorry, but this question does not deserve a shiny new thread
Especially when you already got an answer last time ^^^^
ok sorry
im a pain just send me a link and ill do my best.......sorry for the inconvinance
The link to what?

It's in dev. If you can't find it, then it may not be wise to root your device.

I'm just glad I never unrooted just to get the updated bootloader.

Hey there,
I want to update my phone to 4.3 soon. How can i install the update? Do i need to unroot?
Ive tried different guides to unroot but they all need an ruu to restore to stock. If someone can provide me instructions or help me i would appreciate it very much.
Btw in a noob lol. I also followed a tutorial on youtube (user flamingairo) that used supersu and twrp to root.

I swear I've read somewhere once that it is possible, though more tedious... but after hours of searching, I can no longer find the post I read that said I could do it and how to. I'm very new to Android, and 'somewhat' technical, but am nervous about going S-OFF and not entirely even sure my phone can be S-OFF, after finding countless posts saying I can't do S-OFF on the newer HTC One because of my version of HBOOT something something.
I'm preparing for Android Revolution HD v52.1 when it's released, which will have T-Mobile WiFi Calling implemented and am loving using a Custom ROM. If there's a way to update to the latest Firmware, that would be wonderful.
I have a Mac, but can switch to Windows if necessary using Parallels or BootCamp. Thank you in advance for any help provided.

I got some help in the Android Revolution HD IRC Chat room and found out that a newer tool, Firewater, is capable of putting HTC Ones into S-OFF and quite easily, so for anyone that needs the help, it worked on my HTC One with the newer HBOOT, etc... Here's the link: firewater-soff.com

Hello everyone,
I purchased a HTC HTV31, also known as Butterfly 3 ot HTC J. It works fine in Europe (Romania exactly). I have full signal, full mobile connection at 4G.
I have two main problems.
First,it seems that I can't send any text messages. I've doubled checked the text message center and if there are no sms restrictions with the local operator.
Second problem is that it's full with Japan au bloatware.
Do you think it's compatible with the last rom for HTC OneM9 because the specs are almost the same. Or can somebody help me with a clean rom for this phone?
Here are some informations :
Android version 5.0.2
