And this is the correct section. This post has to do with android software
Literally everything on this site has to do with software. This is better suited for general or possibly question&answers.
Anyway, Verizon has more Android phones sold then Sprint, they can't spread it thin.
Ok cool thanks for not being mean lol
I haven't cared about official updates from Verizon since rooting. My phone with KaosFroyo runs better now than it ever did with official firmware.

So which of you two pointed this thread out to the mods/admins to get it moved ?
Alright so I can root my Evo with a MAc, but how can I get custom roms if my bootloader is still locked...?
IS there a way for me to unlock it on my Mac?
You should be able to do it thru htcdev.com
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Is the Evo under a different name? I looked.
Here's how you do it with a Mac. Go to TigerDirect.com, buy a PC, unlock.
In all honesty, had you researched (as you're supposed to do before doing anything remotely risky with your phone), you'd know this answer. Choose "All Other Supported Models."

Alright nice to see a fellow MAC user + Android lover. I also do everything through my MAC and it was easier than windows because you don't need to install all those stupid drivers for everything.

Well let me know if you were able to unlock the bootloader ... Been reading up on it but nothing. I thought rooting would be harder, but it doesn't seem that way.

I've been rooting since the G1 just never unlocked a bootloader, it can't be that hard, I'm just having a hard time getting the instructions.
Chainfire needs help on twitter with testers for triangle away. Check with him on Twitter. I may test for the Sprint version.
Wait, what? I thought he gave up on the US GS3's? Now he is making them for us?
And you may want to update the thread title to not look like yet another nube looking for triangle away help, this thread is hopefully different.

It says it works on all US variants now. :good:
Tested it on my Sprint GS3. Worked like a charm. I did it on CM10 but users on stock ROMs are reporting it works as well!
My counter was at 2. It is at 0.
That's what it says. As far as I'm concerned, it hasn't been tested yet on Tmobile...at least with a counter >0

Hey Paul Blart Mall Cop... let the mods deal with it instead of spamming up the search engine and giving people false hope for a resolution.

Agreed
Apparently the only solution at the moment is go to the notification bar, long press the wifi notification, hit app info and force stop it. However it comes back after reboot.

I will probably make a flashable to remove it. I haven't even had time to root my s4 but I'm sure I can remove it the same way I did on the s3. Probably be Monday though because I working 12s all weekend.

Strange!! Eager to know why nobody cracked it yet...
still nothing for xt830c?
I would love to see this version of the phone opened up too!!!
I converted to ART and am seeing real storage problems...I do not have that many apps installed.
Include me on this list, I'd really like root for this device.
Mee tooo
Someone Get These Pricks!!!
I figured why not give calling em a shot. It was a thousand questions and then redirected to their security department then several more questions resulting in them saying "I'm sorry sir we do not even have a code to provide you and we do not allow or support device unlocking or rooting." I was like.. Byatch! What a mess! I should have researched this before buying... I looked it up, saw moto e was rootable and looked no further. Sucked in by the deal. Now I can't even return it. I've had it too long. I'm sure no one is even attempting it anymore. Think I might craigslist it for 40 and get me one to have a little fun with. Oh and not only that Tracfone has a site and under their name it says something like, when you have our phones you have the power. Ha! Straight talk just lost a long time customer. And this phone is just bloated out to the max with Google and Motorola CRAP! If someone out there in this mod world have this phone... Get it!!! Hit it hard! We can use this as a lab rat! I'm sure no one will buy it! Lol

So here's what I would believe, the CDMA version on straight talk is a cdma-v phone.. I assume that means its a Verizon phone, if I had a back up phone I'd be willing to try to root this one using the Verizon one click root app... Does anyone have any thoughts?
I would be willing to try it. Tried searching for it but couldnt find it. If you have link to the Verizon 1 click root app Ill try it asap. I just bought it and have a 30 day store warranty. I did try the LG Stump root 1.2 and did not work.

I will try it, I dont mind messing with my device, I can probably look at the apk as well and find the exploit to see what it is.
Look forward to hearing how it goes. Need this XT830C rooted. Never had a non rooted phone. What a big difference it makes and not for the good.

Is this the Version One Click root you were looking for? This is the updated version.
I found it via this article. Chrome detected the Verizon apk as a virus, but that's probably a false positive. The apk does come from XDA.
Blah blah blah, if you install that, I'm not responsible for nuclear war or bricked phones.
I'd try it tonight, but I need to be up for class/work tomorrow.
I don't have much to lose, although I do love this phone. Right now I use it as a server with VIM via Terminal IDE or as a web server with KSWEB. Although I recently converted an old 1.6GHz N270 Atom netbook to do the same thing, it's much louder and hotter, but way more powerful.
I'm just pissed what StraightTalk did to this phone. It's absolutely amazing, but those bastards had to ruin it.
