The enterprising folks over at XDA-Devs have managed to make the life with your HTC handset a bit easier, outing v3 of the HTC Super Tool. The software is supposed to root, S-off, and unlock the bootloader on many popular HTC devices, like the HTC Sensation 4G or the EVO 3D.

The developer FRIGID says that theoretically it should work with all HTC handsets, as their firmware structure is similar. You need a few driver and software downloads, as well as well-charged battery, of course, as in all such cases, but other than that, the instructions in the source link are pretty straighforward.

Now you can root, S-off and unlock the bootloader of almost any HTC device like HTC Sensation, Evo Design 4g, Evo 4g, Evo 3d, Evo Shift, G2, MT3Gs, MT4G, MT4Gs, Inspire, Sensation, Incredible, Wildfire S and Amaze with the help of the application called HTC SUPER TOOL V3 created by FRIGID of XDA Developers Forum. Frigid said that it should also work on any HTC devices because they all have similar architecture.

Interesting, but I am already rooted, S-offed, and unlocked, so not really able to test. I will see if I can find a guinea pig among my friends though...

does anyone know if it will help or allow you to back off root?


In other words, there is an update for the stock roms from TMO. I am rooted with H_boot at 18. will this software help me update and keep root?


and, I see someone has updated and lost root on re-boot. does this mean its a teathered root? Meaning me need to boot with our computers in order to keep root alive?

Thanks for the help.

My guess is this isn't going to unlock or s-off any more devices than revolutionary does... Just without the hassle of entering the serial number and key...

Considering they're just using ZergRush...

Really, works with Wildfire (old one, not Wildfire S)? You now have root and s-off?

Can anyone else confirm it?

You sure about that?
I've been looking for a way to root this old Wildfire for months, since anything else seemed to have failed.

Do you have any prove that it's working for Wildfire?

I have rooted my old Wildfire two days ago with Revolutionary: http://revolutionary.io/

If your HBOOT is 1.01.0001 it must work...

thx, I might wanna try it again with revolutionary, few months ago I tried several things which didn't work for me.
But Revolutionary will only give me root, not s-off, right?
