Great to hear that it work with towelroot, but now it no longer supports the HTC One mini 2? Where is the problem?
We got a report of it not working, however since it confirmed it will work before charging, feel free to give it a try
I gave it a try and it says, that my ROM/Kernel combination is not supported. All original! But I have to say, that I have many Google Apps and HTC Apps deactivated.
Best s be on stock runs like a butter

adaway cant modify host file?
Hi I s-off my device with sunshine on stock rom and then loaded arhd m8 8.1and also elememtalx 0.19, I checked boot loader still showing I am s-off but for some reason adaway can't write host file updates, the faq of adaway app mentioned this because of not s-off but it is s-off as shown in my boot loader ... Wondering why this can be happened?

Send your screenshot to adaway. That's the right place to seek place not here. Once Soff is always Soff till u put it back on. That's a app specific issue.

Could be:
Messed up rom
Messed up kernel (even some stock)
Messed up app
If it shows you as being s-off, you are s-off.
Quick question... new to S-Off. Stock, rooted with Weaksauce. If I run sunshine does the phone factory reset? Just curious as I wonder if I'll need to save all my files. Thanks!
No, it does not. But having a backup before you do these stuff is always a good idea!
Firewater does not work on all M8s while SunShine should. Also SunShine is much easier to use.
Okay, running into some trouble and can't think of a workaround.
I am running stock and rooted with Weaksauce. Purchased SunShine, it went through all testing without issue, and then returns the error that it can't access root. Went back into Weaksauce and it provided no options. Followed the Weaksauce walk through, uninstalled Weaksauce, uninstalled SuperSU, adb reboot, reinstalled Weaksauce, reinstalled SuperSu, and now SuperSu won't allow be to update the binaries. Each time it says I should reboot and try again. So I am stuck. Root was working okay before attempting SunShine but afterward it wouldn't stick. ANY help is appreciated. Thanks.

1.) uninstall supersu and do not reinstall it
2.) weaksauce takes 1-2 minutes after each boot to get root set up.
After #1, reboot, wait 2-3 minutes, then run sunshine again.
Worked tremendously! Thank you! Happy to throw my cash your way.

One more question. I went into the Play Store to grab TWRP manager to flash recovery. Downloaded and when it request root, root fails. So I rebooted, waited 5 minutes, used root checker and I have lot root after successfully S-Off. Do I uninstall and reinstall WeakSauce? Thanks!!!!!

I have the same problem. To fix this every time I update the hosts file I remount the System partition as R/W and change the permissions of the hosts file to 777. After the hosts file is updated the permissions are fixes. Just make sure to remount system as r/o after that.
Once s off, uninstall weak sauce. Flash twrp through fastboot. Boot into twrp, choose reboot. It will prompt you to flash (permanent) root.

I've unlocked my device through htc dev and flashed twrp through fastboot from the beginning. Probably it's just the app. Maybe it's not mounting the system as r/w correctly.
There also are some wp issues with the stock kernel, but this is probably not the proper thread for that.

Will Sunshine work with Weaksauce root but without SU binaries installed? Cannot for the life of me to get the binaries to install with SU however Root Checker says I'm rooted and apps prompt fine for root access..
I've tried the firewater method, but the chmod 755 is not allowed and when attempting to run firewater I get the "whelp" statement. I have a fully stock/clean Verizon M8

As you Stated :

Why is CHMOD 755 not allowed - How are you trying to do ?

SunShine is winding down, the cost of keeping it online has long been more than it brings it. Expect it to probably go free for a period later this year, then be turned off.

88Turbo Support has been merged into the main APK, and no longer needs mofo/Kingroot to work.
This version requires you to be on the 5.1 SU4TL-44 with the matching 3.10.40-perf-g90ddf4a Kernel.
Code:Happy Holidays ! [B][COLOR="Red"]SunShine 3.2 BETA for Droid Turbo [/COLOR][/B](All other devices use the 3.1.XX release for now, as this is untested on other devices). Again DO NOT USE THIS ON ANY OTHER MODELS. This is a beta, why? It needs more testing and has some bugs, but it is safe and it works. We wanted to get it out today, over the next day or two we will patch some bugs and push another version. (No need to upgrade if you get unlocked). This version requires you to be on the 5.1 SU4TL-44 with the matching 3.10.40-perf-g90ddf4a Kernel. You must either be rooted with Mofo, or Temp rooted with the latest kingroot from [url]http://kingroot.net[/url] (yes it works on the 5.1 SU4TL-44 release, it may take a couple tries, and is free). When Kingroot finishes rooting, go to the setting and uncheck and recheck the option called "Root Authorization" (or something like that), than go into Sunshine, You MUST have wifi on, even if not connected to wifi. If it gets "stuck" for more than 5 minutes on a test, turn phone off, then check your bootlaoder. If its not unlocked, try again. It can take a couple goes (you only get charged once, and we guarantee it will work). KingRoot can also cause it to fail if their root bugs out for some reason, solution is to just try again. Uninstalling Kingroot , rebooting then reinstalling may be needed in some cases if it fails. SunShine 3.2 BETA for DroidTurbo ONLY:k[/url]26
Actually, no lets stop that. Your post was not made with all due respect. The moment you came to this thread, and knowingly went off topic, the respect left the window. With who you were, and your history, you know better than to do this.
The respect was also out the window when YOU broke confidentiality and leaked the existence of it. You have no place to complain when you behave the way YOU did.
The support for this decision to go pay has been overwhelmingly positive. We have had less trouble/rudeness with SunShine than with free releases, almost everyone has been great (real eye opener for us). No customer has had a bricked or damaged device from it. It is fast, it is easy. I do believe this will be the future, and I want to thank everyone who has been great. Especially those that have helped others.
Doing paid releases will allow us the ability to release more, and better quality releases. Money is available for us to pickup bugs from other researchers needed to complete our projects instead of devoting months more time to research to find an equal bug, money is available for us to pay for another programmer is we are too busy, or out of our zone. We can hire support people if needed, to run support, so we can do what we do well, instead of helping someone who doesn't know how to use adb. Overall this has been great in every aspect that the free releases were disheartening, and well not fun. When we get less complaints about a paid release, than a free one, you know something is going right.
Reasons why:
- Bounties don't pay, they are often full of fake pledges and that is a well known fact. I collected about 30% of the last one. Solves that problem.
- Scumbag thief's repack and resell work (http://www.gsmcocktail.com/ is mostly consisting of things beaups and I released for free). Solves that problem.
- People believe they are entitled to our time, and are rude when they are told they are not. Well, now if they pay, they are entitled. Solves that problem.
- Cost of test devices is too high. I'm not even an HTC fan, and I have purchased 4 HTC phones in last month. I've purchased for research over 30 phone since the start of this month. This field is expensive to play in.
- Cost of needed software is too high, I spent 10x (no kidding) the cost of the car my son is getting, on the software used in developing WeakSauce. Not counting the three phones I ended up buying to further research the bug (since we can't just let anyone test anymore, because people seem to give away our work and not care about confidentiality).
- More but I have no coffee cup at this hotel, and my head isnt working.
Maybe when a better solution to bounties is developed, we will return to collecting bounties.
