When I get around to a computer I will turn on the donate button and money will be sent that way. Just make a note with your username and the amount so I can just check you off the list.
I will also make a signature of the bounty so that it can draw more attention.

How would be PayPal, who is to be determined. "They" want a Moderator here to keep hold of the "pot" for the Dev or Devs that finally crack this thing. Even though the cash is a nice motivator and I wish the people that are working on this luck, if it can't be done it just can't be done. Wouldn't it just be nice to talk to the team who developed Verizon's firmware update and just ask for the "key" to unlock it, it'll be our little secret and Verizon doesn't need to know who leaked it.

Sadly, from what I've read. Not much can be done unless HTC releases it.

Reverse engineer what? The problem is Su not the bootloader. Cant push Su binaries into system due to write protection. If root is achieved standard HTC dev n facepalm will work

Just to inform that is impossible to s-off and root the French EVO 3D because the HBOOT is not recognized by the unrevoked & alpharev's software.
French users have to wait now... again & again
I doubt the hole the alpha rev used has already been patched; you'll likely get the s-off after a week or so once they get a chance to look at it.

Get back on topic and stop bickering. Since your hboot is 1.49 it is not incorporated into revolutionary. There for it doesn't recognize your phone and you can't generate a beta key. Alpha rev has some very talented devs give them a little. They have their program setup in binary so even if HTC downloaded the program it would be very hard to decode from what little strings could be decoded. So with that being said, your hboot might still very well be vulnerable to their attack. So keep your hopes up
Hopefully that answers all of your questions and you can close the thread lol

Hmmm...i hope it wont take long...i really want a s-off evo 3d(netherlands).
Im in france on holidays right now, on the island corsica and maybe they sell it already? And btw i love france.
Ignore the trolls and keep on topic
I have not been able to find a single post that definitively states this, but here's my experience:
Switched from Sprint to Verizon Friday the 15th, got a Droid DNA.
As I walked to my car, I saw it start an OTA update and didn't think anything of it.
Came here and researched root, etc.
Followed instructions in HTC DNA SuperCID thread, CID still = VZW_001
I guess if we have an new DNA running 2.04.605.2, we'll have to wait.
Thanks to all who do the hard work figuring this stuff out - I'll wait patiently with my fingers crossed.
Note: This is for DNA users who have successfully achieved superCID. If you have accepted the OTA without getting superCID FIRST, you’ll need to wait a little while longer, we have something in the works for you.....

I was also wondering whether there is a workaround to return to stock prior to the OTA, and simply downgrade to the point where we can get the SuperCID working.....

To be honest, I have no clue and don't care . I never wait for carrier updates anymore, just flash the international rom and get updates that way. Just my opinion.

I agree with you sentiment. I can't wait to get android 4.2. I'll get it early because I'm already using Cleanrom 2.5 which is 1.29 based. I know it will eventually go to android 4.2, I'll flash and then I doubt I'll notice it on a day to day basis. If I get a little better battery life, I'll be ecstatic.

That doesn't mean you haven't spammed the forums with numerous threads that are of no value to anybody. If you don't have anything ACTUALLY useful to contribute then you should stick to lurking and flashing roms. And even if you did have something useful to say nobody was joking when they said delete your account and start over. You will likely never be taken seriously here.

It can be rooted but only with the moonshine s-off which isn't out yet. From what I've read moonshine will s-off and root your device all in one shot and once that's done you can flash until your eyes bleed.
It's coming soon and that's all we're going to know until it's released so just sit back and browse the ROMs and kernels until it's here.
Edit: you also have the option of sending your phone in to get jtagged which will unlock your phone so you can flash stuff if you really can't wait. Think that's about $50.

Don't accept the update until you hear from other people what happens. Many times something like that can make you lose root but not always. So be daring if you wish, me no.

Just for sh*ts and giggles, I locked my device back up, performed the RUU, went back to S-On and then took all the updates up to this new update and then tried to Moonshine again...it was successful. I'm back to S-Off, unlocked and 2.07.605. Apparently, Verizon didn't fix the exploit in this update. So unlike them.
I'm stock and downloaded the update. It havent installed it yet. Where do I find it? I can upload it if anyone wants to take a look at it.

Explains the htcdm error I was getting this morning. On a custom Rom. I never plan on taking any Verizon updates again. Last one bricked my phone (2.06) glad I was able to eventually moonshine and get off their horrible software. As far as the sense 5 update coming I could care less. Been running a sense 5 Rom since the release of tranquil. Wouldnt be surprised to see the new one Rom ported over very soon. My bet is we see it before the update.
