[GUIDE] Juopunutbear S-OFF NO HTCDEV UNLOCK | ROOT (1.2x HBOOTS)--NEW: ONE CLICK ROOT

[layercakez]

Hi,

Yes.
Have you considered installing 4 ext?
It does all that with one button.


Sent telepathically from my pyramid

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give 4EXT a try once everything stabilizes

This didn't work for me. I ran control bear and it told me to manually type the adb reboot oem-78 and it closed. I typed the command, the phone restarted and I was never told to do the wire trick. I tried restarting control bear - Device S-OFF already Press Enter to close. So I tried the wire trick anyway when the black htc was showing, then phone restarted and I removed temproot. Now the bootloader says s-off but still has 1.29.0000 instead of 1.27.0000. Control bear still will not run again, saying Device S-OFF already Press Enter to exit.

Phone still works fine but I cant change my radio...which was why I started this process. Device has not been unlocked using HTC Dev. How do i fix?

Thanks!!

This is the message I get when I start the process.

What's the hboot? What rom are you having?

If problem persists, factory reset.

I have figured out that issue I have no rom. Now I'm trying to master the wire trick? Any tips? Or is their a ADB way?

Tips... Reduce the pause tome a bit

0.5 sec tap - - - 1.5 sec pause - - - 0.5 sec tap

And more tips.. Check troubleshoot point #3

Hi,
I am a noob and this is my first post (so be kind to me).
I have been wanting to s-off and root my phone for ages so get rid of the bloatware and increase the speed of it plus install a custom rom but haven't plucked up the courage as I am scared I will brick it

Basically I have a UK Vodafone HTC Sensation with the following HBOOT info:

***LOCKED***
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.27.0000
eMMC-boot
Jan 13 2012, 17:33:34

Software Info:
Android Version: 4.0.3
HTC Sense Version: 3.6
Software Number: 3.32.161.11

I have a few questions which I would like clarifying:
- So I follow the steps for JB Control Bear
- Follow the steps for the one click root tool
- Then how do I install a custom rom?

Thanks in Advance

Cheers I have now S-Off successfully with 1000's of attempts lol

For the rooting procedure I am slightly confused:
STEPS:
1.get the new root tool from root-sensation-zip
DONE

2.extract the zip
DONE

3.remove the files adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll , AdbWinUsbApi.dll
(if you dont have any adb/fastboot setup don't delete these and skip step 4 )
*** What do I do here, I have followed your guide completly for s-off? Do i just not delete any file.

4.copy the rest of files to the your adb/fastboot folder
-> if you did SOFF using this guide then copy the reset of files to the temproot-sensation-windows folder which you
have downloaded during SOFF procedure
***when you say "the rest of the files" does that include: adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll , AdbWinUsbApi.dll

5.connect your device normally (from lock screen or home screen) to pc
(NOTE: avoid usb hubs and usb 3.0 ports while connecting ..just connect the device directly to pc/laptop)
*** when i connect my device does it obviously have be turned on (just checking) and then do i connect as htc sync or charge only etc?


6.double click on root.bat file
-> when the message "PRESS ANY KEY WHEN THE PHONE BOOTED PROPERLY/COMPLETELY" pops up in the command window
press any key once the phone is completely booted
-> wait until root is success and once success message "EVERYTHING DONE..ROOT SUCCESS...ONE FINAL REBOOT NOW" pops out
without any errors...you are rooted completely

Thanks again

Do step #3 and #4 (rest of files means the files remaining after step #3)
For #5 both modes will do

Check the troubleshoot point #3.. There is a way to install juopunutbear hboot was mentioned.. Do that.. The the rest would be easy

Ganesh! Just wanted to say 1000 thanks .. make it 1001. Beer is tasty!


btw is it possible to unroot temporarily. Not a big deal but I have one app that won't run on a rooted phone so It'd be good if there was a workaround for that.
