how do I undo the temp root? I've rebooted my phone but still no root access.
how do I undo the temp root? I've rebooted my phone but still no root access.
reboot would generally do it..
What error are you getting? how do you know u dont have root? did you flash SU and it said aborted? if so.. give it a few tries.. i succeeded the third time..
This has been asked and answered countless times in this thread. Copy and paste the key. You will always get the same key as it is generated for your serial number and hboot version. To paste the key into revolution click on the icon in the top left corner, select edit and paste. You are entering one of the letters incorrectly such as using an uppercase "i" instead of a lowercase "L", or a 0 instead of an "O"I've followed the steps and submitted my serial number, Hboot and device type several times. Each time I have gotten the same exact beta key, yet 15-20 times Rwevolution has given me an "Invalid beta key, aborting..." error. Any thoughts
Once rooted you probably won't get an OTA update. You will either have to revert to stock unrooted, or wait for a dev to release it here as an update. I prefer that option as one never knows what htc may push out in an OTA and they may try to close the vulnerabilities used by AlphaRev to get this s-off in the first place.Hi!
I must ask, i have now used this method to unlock my bootloader.
When there's a new update for my stock ROM over the OTA, can i update my phone that way or must i wait for someone to post it here and then flash it?
And one more thing, WHEN i flash a new update, must i root it all over again?
Thanks for your time

If you did flash a stock update, then I believe you would need to root again.
Why waitOk, thanks! And i did flash a stock ROM to get my device to be a non German device, that was my main goal with rooting my device. And when i was done i had to root it all over again. So i'm lucky now. BUT now i hear about custom ROM's that are far better and faster. So my guess (knowing myself) is that in a couple of weeks i will be flashing a custom ROM to get even more speed on my device.
Thanks for the answer!
dont you guys think this is confusing... I have done the steps but i think the recovery now is the same as old, or i am unable to differentiate between the color... but definetly orange is not showing up as above...
If it shows Discharging, then your version is not working.But you can check if it's loading by connecting your phone to the pc, powering off (not fastboot power of... the real poweroff. Pull the battery if you want to be sure), and execute this:
it should put out:Code:adb shell cat /sys/devices/platform/htc_battery/power_supply/battery/status
Code:Charging
The new recovery says revolutionary in the middle

MANY thanks to all who made this possible iám enjoying my sensation so much more right now.
But am getting confused about this guide now. i've v4.0.1.5 running atm, but which is newer ? :| normaly i suppose its v4.0.1.5 only this link is not supplied anymore.. and now v4.0.1.5 has issues ?
sorry for this many questions but i dont get it al all anymore xD
THNX!
....
both clockworks 4.0.1.4 and 4.0.1.5 do the same thing
4.0.1.4 is from revolutionary who gave us s-off
4.0.1.5 is from clockwork
...
So why does revolutionary not detect the phone? I select HTC just like the instructions say and it doesn't detect it.
