UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER WILL FACTORY RESET THE DEVICE AND YOU WILL LOSE DATA

Introduction

Now the Hack Kit is gone for good, S-OFF is not an easy task to achieve. However, root access can be gained unlocking the bootloader with HTCDEV tool.

If you are skilled enough, then you can gain S-OFF by following this: http://tau.shadowchild.nl/attn1/?p=411

This tool WILL NOT S-OFF, get superCID or unlocksim your device but help you to unlock the bootloader, flash CWM recovery and flash SU to get root privileges .

Instructions

Disable your Antivirus or any other protection software in your PC
Uninstall HTC Sync
Download the EasyAceRootTool
Extract the zip file
Install the Drivers in the tools\windrivers folder WITH THE PHONE UNPLUGGED!!
Plug the phone and let the drivers install properly
Run the EasyAceRoot.cmd as Admin
Follow instructions on screen
Enjoy!!

IF YOUR BUILD VERSION IS NOT SUPPORTED TO UPDATE THEN:

Create a goldcard using this tool: http://d-h.st/VMw, once you have the .img file patch it using the SimpleGoldCard Tool included in the tools folder. (you need a working phone for this)
Find a RUU which main version is supported and higher than yours and flash it in the PD98IMG.zip way, that is what is the goldcard for. If you have a .exe RUU, then extract the rom.zip file using this method: http://www.xda-developers.com/xda-tv-2/how-to-take-apart-an-ruu-xdatv/
Re run the tool and you will be able to update the hboot and unlock it

fre3vo is missing in the tools\tmp folder. That is the exploit that gains temp root. Try downloading the tool again and make sure that you disable the Antivirus first. Then, check that fre3vo is there...

pc4heinz · Mar 4, 2013

Thank you for the quick respond. Sorry to say, but still no success. I had already made a copy of fre3vo from the AAHK-tools to your Easy Ace Root Tool and got the mentioned error. On my Netbook is no malware scanner running.

With a new download of your tool, including fre3vo, the error is still here. After copying the directory "tool" to the root of my PC I got a new exploit error 21.

My DHD has rom 2.3.5 and sence 3.0 and I found a link with the advice to downgrade this ROM. Can it be that this downgrade is necessary?
So I think something is not finaly settled.

Regards
Heinz

I'm pretty new to this phone, I was hoping to put CM10.1 on it for my girlfriend. Will using this tool be enough to do that, or will I also need to gain S-Off? Thanks!

Yes. S-OFF will only be useful if you want to flash radios.

Alright. I probably don't need to do that. I have no idea what that does anyway.

So basically my steps are, use this tool and I'll have root+cwm, back everything up with TiB or something, and wipe and flash CM+inspiremod? And everything will be good, no need to change radios, whatever that does?

Seems easy enough

Thanks!

Read the OP. This is a root tool only. There is no S-OFF at the moment, if you are skilled you do it manually following the link in the OP.

glevitan · Mar 7, 2013

UPDATE

New update. SU flashing in CWM for those who are experiencing issues with the perm root. Flashing is done manually but file is pushed to sdcard by the script.

kcls · Mar 9, 2013

You might want to add to the OP that unlocking the bootloader will wipe the internal memory. I didn't know this and ran the tool on my girlfriend's phone earlier today and now all her apps, contacts, messages, everything is gone. She's just a tad bit pissed at me. Oops.

Other than that though, the tool worked great!

Lol no problem. I should've assumed it would do that... It did on my Nexus, and everything got wiped. I just assumed that was a Nexus only thing.
Needless to say I'm in the doghouse now. No fun for me tonight

Just as a friendly notice the included touch recovery did not work for me and one other user that I seen. The non-touch version works just fine. I do not have this phone but was just helping a friend.

Have a great day
