Okay I'm a bit lost when do I try the wire trick? Program never told me to. I'm getting the common sober message.
You couldn't miss it, it gives the message over and over again until you touch the GND at least once with the wire. Make sure the files are in the same folder as your ADB and that your HTC Sync is disabled.
Moved it into my adb folder and not I'm getting this...
======== ControlBear version 0.1 for Juop
Old beer detected...... Please wait......

did you move all three files there? You have to move all three.
there's controlbear application jb_boot image and jb_hboot zip right?
I was running it just unzipped from a new directory. It was kinda doing things, but never told me to do the trick, but now since I've moved it that's all I get

Yea they are all there...
aww yeah! s-off took 4 tries. this is what i did just saying.
downloaded files. put them into the all in one toolkit v2 data folder (where adb and fastboot was.
pluged my rooted gb rom phone that has the updated ICS radios installed into charge only mode with debugging on
ran control bear as administrator waited til it said wire trick, and IF IT SAID S-OFF FAILED, I DIDNT REBOOT MY PHONE AT ALL I LEFT IT ON THE SCREEN. AND JUST CLOSED THE CONTROL BEAR AND RE-RAN IT AND KEPT TRYING THE WIRE TRICK. and after 4 tries walla.
now all i need is someone to reupload the stock gb ruu cause i have the crappy ics leak radios and i just wanna be stock as i can be.
Okay... Somehow it worked... I randomly did the trick without it asking and on first go it worked!!! So I guess... somehow... I'm fine?
Your lucky, it wouldn't let me re run it. I would have to fastboot flash recovery every time and reinstall a rom just to make the program run again. It kept saying "No more beer for today" if I didn't.

If it says S-OFF you are.
Prerequisites said:Prerequisites
In order to use JuopunutBear you must meet the following pre-requisites:
Be unlocked using the HTCdev bootloader unlock
Be rooted (have superuser and/or an unsecured boot image installed)
Have a spare microSD card, or to have backed up all contents of your SDcard
Have fastboot and adb drivers installed and working (windows)
Have usb debugging enabled
Have a legth of insulated wire of sufficient length to join the contact points for your device. See images and videos for device specific information.
Instructions said:Instructions
(Optional) Perform a full backup and replace your sdcard with one that you are willing to wipe.
Ensure that your battery is fully charged.
Choose the correct download for your device and operating system
Extract the zip file to a new directory
Verify the MD5 checksum for your download
Read and/or watch the video for the device specific information for your device
Run controlbear as admin(windows) or root or using sudo on linux
Follow the on-screen instructions from ControlBear
Do not press any of the buttons on the phone during the process.
After doing the “wire-trick” yor phone will reboot. The sequence of the reboot may vary somewhat from that you see in the videos as these were taken during various stages of development.
If you see the following message from ControlBear after doing the wire trick:
ErrorMsg: Still sober.
This means that you have been unsuccessful in implementing the wire-trick. Run ControlBear again.
The usual casue for this is that you failed to perform 2 clean contacts or mistimed the wire trick.
Your phone will reboot several times during the process, this is normal. ControlBear will tell you when it has finished whether sucessfully or not.
Wire Trick said:Wire Trick
The “wire trick” is an essential part of the JuopunutBear S-OFF procedure.
When instructed to do so by the program you must perform the “wire trick” which is done as follows.
Obtain an insulated wire of appropriate length and gauge
Insert one end of the wire into the hole where pin 1 is indicated in the picture below, ensuring that a firm contact it made with the metal contact at the bottom of the hole
Briefly touch to other end of the wire to the contact marked GND in the picture below.
Wait approximately 1.75 seconds and then again touch the wire to the marked GND.
Allow the program to continue.
Note: it may take several attempts of running the program in order to obtain the correct timing for the wire trick.
The contact points for the “wire trick” are shown in the picture below.
Fix for external SD is as follows:
- Install busybox
- adb shell busybox fdisk /dev/block/mmcblk1
- type o
- type w
- adb shell busybox fdisk /dev/block/mmcblk1
- type n
- select primary, then 1
- chose default sizes
- type w
- adb shell busybox mkfs.vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1
For those of you having problems with internal storage, my apologies. We accidentally included the GB hboot.

Put the phone in fastboot mode, then run the follwoing commands:
Code:fastboot oem rebootRUU fastboot flash zip jb_hboot.zip fastboot reboot
