[S-OFF]Rumrunner S-off works for Rezound!!!

Chillerman · Dec 26, 2013

If anyone is interested, the universal Rumrunner s-off exploit works for our Rezounds! I just got a new Rezound and used this method to obtain s-off. NO MORE WIRE TRICK! NO MORE WIPING OF INTERNAL OR EXTERNAL MEMORY! THE CURRENT ROM YOU ARE ON WILL NOT BE ERASED! YOUR CURRENT RECOVERY WILL NOT BE TOUCHED!

Disclaimer: I am not a Dev. I have no association/affiliation with Rumrunner and can provide no support. Try this at your own risk. It's not my fault if you Bork your phone!

www.rumrunner.us

The download for our phone can be found on page three of the Rumrunner site http://rumrunner.us/downloads-2/. It is under "Universal Downloads" and is called rumrunner_HTC_.0.5.0.

A few notes:

-You must be HTC dev unlocked
-You must be rooted
-You must have an unsecured kernel installed and a custom Rom
-HTC Sync has to be removed from your computer
-Proper HTC drivers installed
-ADB set up
-USB debugging enabled
-Fast boot disabled
-Internet connection
-Turn off all antivirus and firewall software! I can't stress this enough! (If you get rows and rows of dots and the program never finishes it is likely that you forgot to disable one or the other)

Make sure you have a backup on your SD card just in case something goes wrong!

Hook your phone up to your computer in "charge only" mode and run the soju.exe file as Administrator. It will reboot several times and do its magic. It may take 10-15 minutes (or more) to complete.

It took a while for me to get it right, but it does work!

EDIT: I WOULD HIGHLY SUGGEST USING EITHER TWRP OR CWM AS YOUR RECOVERY WHEN RUNNING THIS PROGRAM. THE FEW PEOPLE HAVING PROBLEMS SEEMED TO BE USING AMONRA AT THE TIME.

Verified to work with: EclipticRez, PAC-man, Tachyon, Ineffabilis, Infection, CM, Carbon, and LiquidSmooth so far.

Your results may vary. Please post in this thread if it works for you!

Your hboot version will remain the same and will still say "Tampered" and "Unlocked"!

To eliminate the "Tampered" flag see scotty1223's thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2589763

This is the original thread in the HTC One forum that I used for my HTC One http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2473644.
Please note the instructions are not the same for the Universal exploit. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THE HTC ONE HBOOT!!!

I will not share any files from their site. Use the download links they provide, they work just fine:

"rumrunner s-off is the results of hundreds of hours of hard work by beaups and fuses. The binaries contained within the rumrunner package you download should not be shared, rehosted, bat’d, integrated into a one-click, repackaged, or otherwise distributed or reused. This software is NOT open source."

wow thanks for this , could never get the wire trick to work for me.
What kernal and ROM did u specifically use? what classifies as an unsecured kernal?
And also you just downloaded the generic download since we don't have a device specific one and just followed the instructions?

Can anyone else verify if this works

Chillerman · Dec 27, 2013

It worked for me. I used EclipticRez with the included funky kernel. HTC Dev unlocked and AmonRa recovery.

Yes, I just followed the generic instructions.

Just did this before leaving to work, and my phone is now S-OFF. How cool, no wire trick or anything, I started the process then got dressed for work and came back and it was done.

This is great news if it works without any possibility of bricking!

You mean bricking while running this rumrunner or flashing a rom?

I believe he means while running the exploit. Once you are s-off, you are s-off! The chance of bricking at that point is totally up to the operator

I don't mind. So far we've only had two verified that have achieved s-off with it though. I would hope to see more.

And again, this is not my work.

For those of you having trouble with the site, I don't know what to say except try a different browser or computer. I have never had any problems accessing it.

As far as whether it will work with Pacman or not, I have no idea. I was on EclipticRez when I ran it. All you can do is try it. From what I understand it won't hurt anything if it doesn't work.

I will not share any files from their site. This is on their front page:

I can confirm I was able to achieve s-off with this. Had a few problems in the beginning but I was able to get it to work after awhile

Can you describe the problems you were having so I can update the OP if necessary?

What rom and kernel were you using?

Thanks for verifying it works.

Thanks for verifying it works.

The first problem i had was that the first rom(using funky kernel 4.2) i was using got stuck at "must sanitize, skunky rum is nasty
hold please" and after that message it told me to exit the program. So i flashed eclipticRez with funky kernel and I was able to get past that but then i got "FATAL: Download updated package at ". Although i had disabled avg, i forgot to disable firewall as well. After disabling both of those the program was able to get me s-off

....and I am successfully S-OFF. like they said before me the only problem was i forgot to disable stuff.

I am running Pacman the latest build 4.3 with whatever kernel that comes with and it worked beautifully, it took a while so make sure your disable timers have half an hourish just to be safe for me it took about 15-20 mins.

Thank you for posting and verifying. It looks like Pacman works just fine as well :good:
