Where did our devs really go? Why is the Sensation development forum far superior to the 3vo?
pretty sure most of the ones in the sens forum are actually 3d devs. apparently one of the mods ran them off from here...

Can s-off come out and play? You run but you can't hide
It's not that devs were chased off, it's that someone (who was doing their job) didn'tlike the sensation people hanging out in our forums, so everyone, including teamwin, went to the sensation forum since it was more "cross-phone friendly".
Devs will come back to the 3d forum once s-off is established and the time to cook up Roms and mods comes around. No one is going to be posting 3d roms in another forum

Lol, I like this guy
It is hard to develop for a machine with s-on. Once we have it rooted and this bad boy is flashable...I believe the gates will open. Also...the sensation has been out a month before 3d and by looking at the threads..some have s-off. The developers did not go anywhere...they just cannot develop.
A mod was trying to keep the first root thread free from a lot of non dev related stuff but also wanted to keep the sensation owners out as well. So he locked the whole thread hindering the communication between teamwin and this particular section of the forums. Teamwin then picked up their ball and went to go hang out on the sensation forums where we can ask questions and talk about our phone without the fear of being banned.
Lets not turn this into another thread like the "update" thread. Just know that they went to the sensation threads and will more than likely be back soon. I don't want to see this get blown up again.

I have never been banned from xda until this forum was created. Then I got a 1 day ban for saying thanks to the guys for all there hard work. The mod posted a "warning" post in the thread which I didn't see because I linked in to the thread on a later post. I'm like really xda!? A true warning should have been PM'd, I can understand a mod wanting to keep prescription drug sales or porn off the site, but for just saying thanks! I mean get real.

Crap happens.. Mod was doing his job and you got caught in it. Whose fault was it that you didn't read the mod's post? It was yours.. It was only a day and the world didn't end.
As a group we can't have it both ways.. It's either let everyone do what they want and deal with the mess, or regulate it. If we could leave it up to everyone regulate themselves, it wouldn't of been an issue in the first place.
Edit: I just want to make it known.. I'm not really trying to single you out with that. I'm just making it a point that you gotta be responsible for yourself.
Here we go with yet another unlock solution.
This one applies to almost (if not all) devices which are radio S-off, it’s fairly easy to use and doesn’t wipe data/settings nor have that ugly side effect (when using diag files) in which you lose conectivity to mobile network.
Supported devices so far:
HTC Sensation (pyramid)
HTC EVO 3D GSM (shooteru)
HTC myTouch Slide 4G
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(by the use of revolutionary)
and:
Sprint EVO 4G
Droid Incredible (HTC Incredible)
(by the use of unrevoked 3 – not tested)
These are the required steps you have to take:
1. S-off your phone by using Revolutionary (if you haven’t already done that).
2. Fill in the form with the required data. This will generate an unique Config.dat file for your device. Please enter a valid email address, as you’ll be sent there the link to download the file.
This step you'll have to take here
3. Put the file on the root of your sdcard and reboot your phone into HBOOT (adb reboot oem-42). Once you’re there, navigate to Simlock and press Power. The phone will load the file and remove the simlock. Some text will appear on the screen and at a certain point you’ll be asked to press Vol-Up to restart the phone.
4. Just do it, and you’ll be done!
PLEASE NOTE!:
This solution is heavily linked to the device it's being applied to by the use of IMEI, which can be considered a breach in security.
DISCLAIMER:
This solution provided for you on this site is given AS IS and in GOOD FAITH and is based on the research I made. I may not accept any liability or responsibility for the use of this applicaton.
ANOTHER IMPORTANT NOTE!:
This is still an experimental solution, it may or it may not work! I didn't have all those devices to test, that's why I ask you to post your experiences, either bad or good. If it didn't work for you, reply here in the thread with the errors you had and in the mean time pm me your imei and the .dat file that was generated on the site and I'll manually review it.
ANOTHER ANOTHER IMPORTANT NOTE!:
As this method isn't 100% proved to be working, please do not hurry out and judge it / me; I've spent time to figure it out and I'm offering it out for free. Reporting this thread because it didn't work for you (scam-like) is actually quite rude and it's only making a bad advertising of this community. If you have something against it, just don't use it; let others who need (and maybe appreciate) it use it!
If you find this tool useful and appreciate my work, Paypal me a beer, it helps development a lot..

thats because it is pointless for the 3D on a CDMA network and will not work. the OP should have stated this is for GSM 3Ds and posted it in the GSM Development section instead of here.

no idea but you cant sim unlock a phone that doesnt have a sim card. you can however, flash to metro or cricket but thats about it.
You do realize, I hope, that I don't have all those devices and I couldn't do all the the tests to make everyone happy. Don't judge me wrong, I just shared my work with those who might benefit from it..

Yo, "that ****" will make the difference between you bricking your device and doing it right. Read the steps, because if you don't people won't be polite to you when you come back with problems.
I did read it bro, it says at the beginning "Step 1 - backup everything on your phone, nandroid backup"
that's what I'm not sure how to do yet, I haven't used it since about May and it looks different than the original Evo, so I'm completely lost!!! The menu has changed completely since I last used it...

What? It is just like any other recovery, go to "backup" from the first menu and backup. If you can't make it past that point in your own, maybe you shouldn't be attempting this.
And did you pm a mod to move this as it most certainly should not be in this section.

I haven't contacted anyone to move it yet cause I didn't know who to contact... I posted from the mobile app, it was on accident... but yeah on the evo it was different... I seen backup partition in the recovery, but I didn't see how to backup the rom specifically. like I said I haven't done this in MONTHS and I'm trying to remember/learn how to do what needs to be done, I'm sorry if I'm annoying anyone I just need to learn this
seriously man, you need to do some more reading. you are going to end up bricking your phone. you are trying to rush into this without knowing what you are doing. read the stickies in the forum, then when you think you know whats going on, read some f'ing more.

I wonder if the root process will be as simple as the HTC One and One X?
I would think it would be similar, since the phones are so similar.
But what do I know. I'm not even close to being a dev.
dont mean to kill the mood, but this is the dev section guys. lets move the discussion to the general section. lets not give our new moderator a tough time before the phone even launches

I had read the One X had a locked bootloader... is it already cracked open?
I plan on getting this Evo, so hopefully it isn't a couple months before s-off and root is attained again. I would rather not have hindered development this time around.

When did you get your evo. it had root before day 1. A couple of times it got lost, but only to people on new devices and people who couldn't wait for the devs to get a hold of the new Stock ROMs.

Is there any doubt this is the next benchmark phone. The OGEvo is still in my opinion the only SuperPhone. A first of many standards, and the only phone i know you can plug directly into the TV for watching Vids.
I have lived off contract for the last 4 years. Yes i finally used my Upgrade for this phone.
Who is the forum mod anyways?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA
I would imagine root would be very similar to one x international. Use HTC unlock, fastboot recovery, flash superuser.
I am sure other ways will come as well, but I suspect that will be the first

HTC dev is flash friendly. So is regaw one click program that you can find in the development forum. Lazypanda s-off is the only known program that causes bricked devices....oh and if you don't have a clue what you're doing. Read read read its your best friend

of course the best way to not brick is to do your reading, but if you had the epic touch you would know all the reading in the world couldnt save you...no brick warnings in the OP aside, people were bricking just by factory resetting YUCK!!
glad i got the htc evo lte and glad that its harder to bricl, just wish the community here was a little bit more warm ya kno
Haha its probably the side of bed they woke up on. Believe me, this is a great community filled with informative and and helpful individuals. But when you begin to talk about a phone that isn't the LTE (specifically samsung)
People become a bit irritated. Aha or so it seems.. just read a bit cz samsung and HTC are different regarding flashing and techniques on unlocking. Goodluck and enjoy

That whole recovery thing on the epic is the reason I despise the Samsung phones and the New kernal and modems every week with no change at all. There's only a few ways for ur phone to get bricked here. Experimental roms/mods (unlikely) or a simple bad flash (not likely either as recovery just says failed and u can flash something else)

I also had my elte rooted and rom'ed within the hour I was looking for some general tips, tricks, best behavior and routines when dealing with the elte to avoid issues...knowing only way to brick is purely poor judgment or possibly a bad download is comforting.
Alllllllll this thread was for was to collect data to compare to other devices which have had issues bricking or getting ruined by easily doing something small or specific
