I see where he's coming from though. Not being able to develop on the phone is probably a deal breaker for me too.

Facepalm s off was released like yesterday for that :p Look it up :) (facepalm is the name)

Yea, but you realize that it's almost a year after the release?
I now bought a new phone, and my HOX still has S-ON. If I had a qualcom HOX, I'd be enjoying S-OFF for.. not even a week, because my Nexus4 just arrived.

The new HTC One really is amazing. Perfect hardware and the design is awesome as always from HTC.
But as long they treat our devs like that, I won't buy a phone of them again. :/

Just saw a user named lime, something in general section. He already has the device and his is S-off (he works for a mobile phone company, I guess). I would think having S-off, or maybe even ENG hboot available for dump would help greatly toward S-off. Evo lte got S-off months ago, and every hboot update since then revolutionary has been able to crack. Now the HOX and DNA and One S just got S-off yesterday. I'd say it's pretty likely.

From my Evo LTE, yup.

I know that as soon as devs get their hands on it, the work will start on getting S-Off. But asking when is the same as asking when (fill in the blank) ROM will be released/ updated - No one can tell you because no one knows how long it will take. Also, there are no professionals doing this - They all have day jobs and this type of dev work is a hobby that people enjoy doing and they're not on a schedule.

It will happen when it does and I'll be fine with stock rooted for starters myself. :good:
