Any devs working on this phone?

Seems the whole dev comm is on the TB

Looks like the Inc2 won't be as robust as the original, tis a shame

Worried about that myself, but I love the phone. I don't particularly need the 4G because I'm pretty much always on WIFI and the T-Bolt, Charge, etc are just to large for my daily usage. The Inc 2 is a great little phone with a good battery. Lets just hope the dev scene picks up.

You guys are in the same boat the thunderbolt, desire S and incredible s are in (Except the thunderbolt has an older vulnerable radio).

If you can locate a RUU with a radio from ~ jan 7th or earlier, odds are in your favor.

Htc devices use nand/emmc write protection, preventing write access to much of the phone's internal memboery

On top of that the latest HTC phones (thunderbolt, inc2, inc3, desire s) released check for a signature on the recovery and kernel images, and throw the device into a "security warning" mode if the signatures are wrong or absent. If it is the recovery that is missing the signature, the phone will still boot but deny access to recovery. If it is the kernel, then the device won't boot.

Older HTC radios had a vulnerability that is exploitable (via scotty2's wpthis), to remove the write protection. Seems to be radios dating before January ~7th.

If such firmware exists and can be found, you guys can go the same route we did with the Thunderbolt, and replace the hboot with an ENG hboot, bypassing the signature checks.
