[Q] Is there any easier way to get s-off then the JuopunutBear method? - HTC Amaze 4G

Im thinking of buying an htc amaze, but i ain't gonna do that if to gain full root access i have to do that whole 'wire trick.
but if there is any easier way i will go for it...
thanks,
Aryeh

Key_logger is making a toolkit, in which i think would answer your question. But you're gonna have to wait toll he releases it

Jbear is only option for now... The way HTC built this fanned phone made it that way. If u don't feel comfy and need s=off, u may wanna try an older device

If you get the white amaze, I'd trade you my already s-offed device on second thought, naa, lol.

Let me clarify you want s-off if you want kernels to flash at the same time you flash a Rom, also, having s-off will allow you to change the splash screen (HTC white screen)

Dude it is really not that frikkin bad. Seriously. I ran the tool one time and it took me maybe 4 tries. It coaches you through it. If you are this scared then why even root or do anything to a phone?

Option 1) Just unlock the bootloader HTC style.
Option 2) Get S-OFF yourself, it wasnt that hard, I got it first try.
Option 3) Mail me your phone and $20, ill send it back S-OFF with 4EXT recovery.

2 things I need to correct you right there. The name's Keylogger. Keylogger_0.
On a more serious note, my toolkit is FOR s-off users. It does not help one achieve s-off.
And to answer OP's question, currently, the only way to s-off the amaze is through the JuopunutBear method. From what I've heard, the J-Bear method may be tricky, but as long as you follow directions, it is pretty straightforward. Took me many tries, but as long as you use the correct insulated wire, and follow instructions, it isn't too difficult. You just need time and patience.

[Q] Help on rooting evo 3d phone sprint

Hey guys. I ve rooted the samsung epic 4g pretty easy. I just got the evo 3D from sprint. Is there a one click root for this. What is the easy way to root this phone. Can anyone give me so good information.
Depends on what version of bootloader you have. Which one you got?
Sent from the CM powered 3d
Betting its 1.5 if ya just got it. There are some good walk throughs out there. Have to use fastboot, but its fairly quick and easy.

Well I just got mine from sprint and mare sure they didn't update it outta the box..had 1.40 WOOT!!so what ya gotta do is pull the battery, put I back in and gold the VOL+DOWN & Power at the same time until it takes u into the Hboot...at the top it will tell u which Hboot u got
1.30xxxxx
1.40xxxxx
1.50xxxxx
Now the first two i listed are good...but if u got 1.50 u have to use HTC's method which still isn't bad...in the dev section there are a few great guides on how to use HTC's method and get u your recovery and everything. If u got either of the first two the Google _revolutionary_ and it should be the first selection that pops up...u will need the SDK Installed on Yur PC but I think it may give u a link on there page if u need it. But on the REV page they give great directions. I'm head to bed but I'm sure someone else here can help when u find out which Hboot u got. That's very important. Good luck....Jon

It doesn't suck if u know how to use it. It gives u full access to root, but there is an extra step to flashing custom kernels. scrosler I. the dev section made a program for the PC that makes it ten times easier to flash the newer twrp recovery and get u on Yur way. So for kernels u have to fastboot your CUSTOM kernels....

No this in not the S-off method. This is just something you are able to use once you gain s-off. Check the general section for the s-off method.

What exactly are these? what do they do? edit:nevermind, i figured it out
Is this to replace the HTC image?
You can drop a boot image into it and it will flash it via recovery. It is more of a template/reference for rom/kernel devs now that we have S-OFF. However, it can work for the end user if you put your boot image inside it.
Hey Con,
I'm running stock GB. What command would I use to make a copy of my boot.img in case I Bork my s-off attempt?
Thanks in advance.
Edit...Never mind I got a copy from scottsroms.com
I used to be a developer like you. Then I took an arrow in the knee...

Bootloader

so, i just flashed the ics ruu, and now my hboot says tampered. should i worry, how do i fix it if it is an issue
I'm assuming your unlocked, even if you relock it will say relocked, tampered cones from having a custom recovery and ics. I have a stealth hboot it requires s-off but will make it look stock for warranty issues.

You got off easy. Sometimes it can get a little nasty in here when you ask an already answered question.
Everyone must still be happy about S-Off or the new leak or something.

Ehh I Think I Bricked....

Flashed a build I made. Booted. Set up rom. Rom froze. Pulled battery. No boot, no hboot, no led light.

you are correct. all vzw is going to do is see if they can boot it. if not they will plug it into a machine and then go into download mode where they will flash a copy of everything back onto the device. but if they cant get into download mode they will just use it for parts.
i couldnt get it into download mode, nor did linux see the phone.
