Why don't you go ask the guys over in the droid x section about encrypted bootloaders.
Says the guy that joined 2 months ago. GTFO.
You saying that its only a matter of time isn't helping either. In fact, its misleading considering that many phones in this position, notably the Droids, have yet to be cracked a year later. Besides, this is a EVO 3D topic on a home brew development site. It being incredibly limited to the purpose of this entire site is essential discussion.

Try saying this to the many of users out there still locked down thinking their phones would eventually be cracked. Ya they're still waiting...
I'm not going to waste my time on "it might be done eventually" If and when it does get cracked the next big thing will probably be coming out. Patience is a virtue for suckers.

100% agree. I was debating myself between the 3D and the SGS2 so that I can have a beast of a phone and continue with MIUI, but now that choice I guess got easier.
Maybe my post was a bit rude I apologize for that. Its not that I think we should not discuss this. I just don't think we need 10 separate topics a day doing so. I also feel this being the sole reason some people are protesting getting this phone is a bit stupid when u balance the pros and cons of this phone. I have also read that there is someone attempting to develop a way to unlock locked phones using a similar method to jailbreaking iphone. I dont remember where on google I read that. I'm not telling u that to start rumors just trying to show u it is being worked on it is not going unnoticed by the devs.

The problem with motorola phones isn't the encryption. its the fact that it re-locks once un-encrypted. they've gotten to the point of un-encrypting it, just the re-locking problem is the issue.

Doesn't change the fact that it's been well over a year and the problem still exists. The point is, yes it's POSSIBLE that this will be rootable at some point, but it's more likely that by that time there will be much better, easily rootable tech (i.e. Nexus 3) on the market.
It's not bad to have hope for a bootloader solution.
A bootloader unlock may never happen, though. You can hope for a bootloader bypass though. Just look at the Atrix. We have a bypass ready, we just need a kernel

You need to stop putting so much faith into the devs. We all love them to death but we just can't do everything. If it's anything like the way Motorola locked their devices down, the odds are against us. 256 bit encryption is crazy. LOL
wasn't android police the same site talking about how the tbolt was "locked down encrypted and unhackable" lol
why do people still pay attention to that site?

The T-Bolt was locked down tight, but aleaked RUU prior to release was exploitable. It's literally the ONLY reason they're able to customize it.

Our devs worked very hard to unlock our bootloader so I don't believe you are giving them enough credit when you say its been unlocked since day one. You acknowledge that the Atrix version is not stable. Well that is kind of a problem for us because the Atrix team will most likely be the ones who will port it over for us. There was a thread started about it on the cyanogenmod forums about two weeks ago so you might want to keep that thread alive. A lot of people aren't willing to sacrifice their 4g access for custom ROMs just yet but once the 4g issue is fixed then I think you will see a lot more. You might want to communicate with the Atrix team and show them your support and offer your device for testing if you wish to speed things up. Just make sure you have a nandroid backup.
First rule of Cyanogenmod is don't ask for an eta.
Sent from my Motorola Photon 4g
Not being a Dev (yet. I am eager to learn) my layman's/noob's suggestion would be for the Photon Dev's and the Atrix Dev's to combine forces to create CM7 for both phones. If I am not mistaken, and please correct me if I am wrong so I can learn, the Photon & Atrix are very similar and with the exception of the RIL and a few other minor differences the CyanogenMOD ROM for both phones would be practically identical. Sometimes too many cooks spoil the soup but most of the time the more great minds the better.
I understand that both the Photon & Atrix Dev's put in a ton of work to root & unlock the bootloaders. They did this out of a love for what they do and asked for nothing in return, they should be thanked and praised for their efforts and contributions to the community.

I think it has more to do with people getting annoyed with noob and uniformed questions. Since when did a a different phone with an unstable version and a bootloader that will break 4G become a prerequisite for the Photon getting CM7?

if you want something bad enough why not jump in and help rather then ask for it? my comment about we are waiting on you to make it still stands. its not going to happen without people stepping forward. with the epic touch coming out soon, face teh facts people this is the highest amount of development/users this phone will have. great phone, just overshadowed by two other phones at launch. once the et4g comes out a lot of people will leave here claiming development is too slow etc etc. what im getting at with all this is if we want this phone to succeed, we as a collective need to make it happen, no on eis gunna come in and start making everything awesome.

this is awesome news!
My goal was not to make anyone mad or to proclaim I had a fix. I simply wanted an answer to my question. I am sorry to those I obviously offended by asking such a question. Though I could have asked Yay before I posted I honestly didnt think this thread was going to go where it did. I dont know what happened to cause my phone to shw 4g coverage (or lack there of according to yay) but I wanted to get someone elses impression of my account and see if had been something I done. Like I said many times now my apologies. I dont come on here to troll or misguide anyone. I am a firm believer in helping out when I can which is what my initial comment was trying to do, but I was just simply called a liar (though I can understand skeptisism) I dont want to waste anymore time defending my character. If YAY or any other dev wants to talk you have my contact information. I will be trying the dsixda kitchen to see if we can build a rom with that kitchen since the atrix can, hopefully I can redeem myself so to speak...lol.. have a blessed day people.

I can tell you that the same thing happened on the evo when the kingdom roms kernel first came out. If you left 4g or wifi on while updating it would say error when you booted back up. Maybe this is the reason as well..

I knew that I wasn't unlocked. This is my second photon. The other was unlocked. I was thinking the source of the 4g problem was flashing the modified bootloader. Could it possibly be in Rom Racer's Recovery that is breaking the wimax keys? Has to be that or the oem unlock. Any ideas?
This was already one of the original ideas and I believe it was found out not to be it. There is a lot to be learned on the unlock bootloader thread.
For those asking for a video I will not be posting one as I don't have the luxury to take time to make a video to prove my phone has 4g. I simply stated what I did while unlocking and asked if others did the same. I don't need any credibility given from anyone as I have been helping people for quite some time now on here.
The reality of it is I have 4g after unlocking my device but I don't know how. It was a simple question to see if anyone else experienced it ..... if not then we know that, that was not the reasoning behind it! But I will post screen shots when I get back to a area with 4g...

Well i dont see the point in your post other than trolling the video is so we can verify that you are indeed in unlock status and have 4g. You could have unlocked your phone flashed rom nandroided relocked and recovered from bootstrap and think you still have 4g and unlock status but that wouldnt be the case. Its just to cover all bases, if you want to help others than that would be the first step then you could get with yay and figure it out.

Agreed, the fact that you just want to"kinda" help everyone out is bothersome, in that making a video is in fact the only way it can be proven. Creditable or not, it really is the only way. Screenshots do nothing. You don't need a 1080p hd video explaining all the ends and outs. Just a quick 40 second jobber showing us unlock status and 4gees.

You aren't understanding anything, that's your first problem. It isn't him you are proving something too, its everyone on that forums, every single person here is wanting what you supposedly have. Being a prick about it only shows that you really don't have what you say you do, because anyone that did would be going crazy right now trying to find a camera that records, which almost all do nowadays. You are the one being selfish here. If you truly wanted to help the community, you would be doing anything you could.

I believe you and hope its not a misunderstanding. Call it wishful thinking, but i dont think you would have those thanks unless you were actually helping others and you deserve the benefit of doubt. Hopefully you're able to help Yay shed some light on this dilema.
Why is my security still on (S-On) after I have unlocked my bootloader?
Your device is shipped with Security on (S-ON) to protect your system software configuration (such as the bootloader, radio, boot, recovery, system and others). After you have unlocked the bootloader, however, you will have lifted the restrictions on boot, recovery and system. This means you can customize boot, recovery and system images on your phone as you desire. You can easily see that you have successfully unlocked the bootloader by looking at the top of the screen when entering the bootloader screen. Security is left on to protect things like the radio, and SIM lock.
If you should require support, please feel free to contact us via the support section of our website, http://www.htc.com

We're all rooting for you, but as nice as it'd be for us it's kinda too late for HTC. The devs that would've bought this or the SGS2 already bought the other. Annoying. But still appreciate the effort!

Its never too late. The Amaze is too good of a device to let it go the way of the G2X.

Good. Let me know if i can be of any help.
For what it's worth, I'm still randomly emailing and tweeting them....hopefully they'll listen better this time. In reference to them "listening" to the dev community and letting us unlock bootloaders.

im getting them annoyed!! on tweeter and emails!! what gets me is that this phone aint cheap and we buy them and as android suppost to be a open source htc doesnt,
i told them that is my phone and i can do whatever i want with it, they answered me saying that with s-off will void my warranty, my answer was well ****... you by giving us unlock bootloader it still voided my warranty so let us take advantage of this amazing phone
I've also email them hopefully we'll be heard..I suggest everyone email them we need a joint effort from the community they wont have a choice but to listen.

So call back after your warranty and ask for it. They'll have no excuses then, right?
I wonder if HTC is waiting for ICS and then let something "leak" to obtain s-off.

That'a actually another reason why I don't want to rush to obtain s-off because even if we get it we may lose it with the OTA. Would be our luck. We know that HTC read these so what's to stop them from being like "Huh. This Binary100100 bastard figured out how to get around s-on. Let's patch that with ICS! That'll show them!"
you have a point.. but what about if your wrong? i hope your right though
forgive my ignorance, But has any phone ever been granted S-off through HTC? If so...I hate them for not giving us S-off

No, and most likely never will because it invalidates the very reason S-on is enabled. We've (the community) always developed a way to bypass the signature as far back as I can remember, but they've figured out a way to make it more difficult to accomplish with the Amaze.
I think if we make enough noise, perhaps they'll create a tool that allows overwriting the signature. My optimism always gets the best of me!

I believe its the lack of developers for the amaze, the rezound is newer than our phone and I believe they have achieved S-off, It's hard to say because that phone is a CDMA phone, but never the less if they have figured out a way to make it more difficult it should be for all the new HTC phones, which doesn't seem to be the case.

The rezound is S-on as well. It seems to me like every highend HTC device launched in the last 3-4 months have run into a brick wall in regards to s-off.

my mistake I was under the impression they had attained S-off, uh, HTC c'mon.
Maybe we should join up with some of these communities with recent HTC phones to fight for s-off

Halfcab was to root our phone - a simple process according to them. in 3 days they have managed to brick one of our phone and then not properly root the second. Now it is working very poorly. now they have blocked our emails and will not respond to us. According to them a simple download is needed so why are they not responding. Avoid as you probably will not get what you pay for.
Better taking the advice and know how from the xda site, rather than some dodgy phone guys...

They are ADX Developers. They never had possession of our phone. Any paid to have it rooted because we honestly don't know how to root the phone. We open to suggestions.
We just wanted a simple root but they have messed up. We were naive I guess.
correction: these guys are XDA developers.
They work under different names and email addresses so watch out.

Are you sure it's bricked? You can't get into recovery or use adb?
Personally, I wouldn't let someone I've never met remotely flash my several-hundred-dollar phone (if that's how it was done). But that's just me.

I would let the unlimited.io crew or con247 toy around with mine remotely; such has been done during the initial release of the JuopunutBear S-off method. But only because I have observed them to be legitimate developers seeking to better user experiences and knowledge for knowledge's sake. Definitely not some random XDA reader with a website storefront and access to other people's ROMs and tools.
Edit: read the post below this one. Then read it again; it pretty much sums up the situation.
I a firm believer that if you can't root your own device, you should be stock... Hell I'm even against the one click root utilizes for inexperienced users.. part of having root is the understanding that you are now tech support..the only way your going to learn is to do it the hard way. Not by plugging in and clicking root... Ever notice on any forum for a phone with a one click, there's a ton of "help I'm bricked" threads... Funny thing is you never see these before one click is available...kinda hard to become tech support if you have zero knowledge of what a Linux OS is and how to move around with terminal..
Basically I almost don't feel bad for the scam, shoulda took the time to learn what's involved with being rooted...sorry

Oh I think he already has. Kudos to him for warning others though.
well the droid DNA and the One S and the One XL just got s-off!! also i was just on twitter and jcase said that it will work on the evo 4g LTE also it it looks mad easy! he said if we want it they will support it :good: no sdcard needed either! check it out its called #facepalm S-OFF! for all modern HTC phones
this is what jcase said he needs...-jcase- "I need an update.zip, link to a supercid procedure, and a s-on user with supercid and root".. i have no clue what that is but im sure someone here can help get what he needs to get this goin
Why the hell do you want to waste an exploit on this device if we already have one? It's not a problem also we dont have a superCID procedure. You're sitting here wanting S-off on a device that's already been hacked not only that, you have no idea what most of this **** even is. How can you expect to be of any use when debugging something when you don't know what SuperCID is. This is a useless thread and completely unecessary. We already have an s-off exploit, lets not waste it until a future update we can't get past?

It's not a matter of him being mad, it's a matter of you starting an unwarranted thread about an exploit that isn't necessary for our device.
While jcase's method could possibly be adapted to our device, it would be unnecessary for jcase to dedicate time to a device with an existing, and fairly simple s-off method, when he could be dedicating time to devices that have nothing currently.
Feel free to ask if I'm mad, because I'm not. The only people that should be mad, were the ones that ever followed your advice, now that it is apparent that you don't understand the device you hold in your hand.

It's refreshing to see that you just prove my perception of you as an individual with your quick resort to the standard Internet tough guy and 'you wouldn't say that in real life' antics. Be certain, that I would, as I am no different regardless of my settings.
You made a senseless thread, because you wanted thanks or something. Then when it's brought to attention, you get all gangster as though anyone cares.
Your profile says that android saves and keeps you out of trouble... How about just growing up, taking responsibility for actions, and being an adult. Your ghetto, tough guy act makes you seem very unintelligent and uneducated.
I'll be exiting this thread now, as it has nothing more to offer besides aggravation due to your feeble minded ways.
