Hi guys, this is a noob question but how can you s-off a DX and what does it require?

No s-off methods yet...

Hmm, there was some method, but no one checked it for this phone...

No methods for Desire X. Don't try methods for other phones.
Indeed, that was something for HTC phones, but.. not safe..
Any idea how long it'll take?

AW: S-OFF
Going to buy a HTC DESIRE X with my girlfriend TODAY and would like to S-OFF and ROOT it right afterwards. Therefore, please answer quick: How to S-OFF it the fastest way? Note: I would like to avoid using the HTC-Dev method. Although not officially documented that it works, did anybody try REVOLUTIONARY to unlock its bootloader? All fast answers are thanked for!

Just want to second that.
It isn't possible yet, there's workarounds for deleting system apps etc.
The community is very small, but picking up, and there are some great devs beavering away quietly.
Patience or bricking your phone are the options atm.

revolutionery was great for olders phones like bravo, dhd and saga etc but there are new measures in these 2012 phones which ,might get bricked if you try those old tools.
BTW, I myself used revolutionery to S-OFF by desire (bravo)

Do you guys think it's safe to root my HTC One X+ right now? Or should I wait a little longer

Root now. It's pretty safe (I mean, nothing is 100% certain) but so long as you follow directions, you'll be fine. Use this toolkit and you should be good.

Just unlock bootloader, flash TWRP, flash SuperSU, and make sure the phone is well charged beforehand!

Im assuming you have ATT.
Upon rooting, make sure to stay away from anything that says INTERNATIONAL. If it does not state, make sure to check the posts in the thread, or post yourself to see if its for ATT or INTERNATIONAL. Most of the development in this subforum is for the INTERNATIONAL HOX+ so be aware and be cautious.
Other then that. Rooting is simple and not dangerous at all. Toolkit works perfect, MAKE SURE TO FLASH ATT TWRP RECOVERY
Ok thanks a lot, I'm probably gonna usr haboon2000's rootkit but I'm not sure which one to DL. The normal HTC one x+ version or the one below that which says HTC one x+ for evita (Rogers,ATT,Telstra)

Okay thank you, I just don't wanna brick my phone lol. I was this careful even when i rooted my Inspire 4G couple years back. You can't let your phone die when you root right?
Nope, root alone does no.harm! But you gotta have unlocked bootloader
What exactly does the unlocked bootloader do? I'm pretty much a noob right now. still learning but right now i'm a hardcore noob lol. I'm gonna go on HTCdev.com to unlock my bootloader now.

If you unlock your bootloader before understanding what it's for or what your doing. You really will be a noob.

It's really hard to get a device S-Off, look at the HTC One X and One X+, they still don't have S-Off too.
Although you can get HTCDev unlocked, look at the tutorial by nloooooo to see how to do that.

O well i really wanted this but I'll try my luck asking htc support
HTC support will definitely not get your device S-Off, they don't want that.

damn, this security thing sucks. but hey, if you want to remove system-apks /****ty bloatware you can do so by using aroma file manager in cwm. check "auto mount...." in settings and there you go
just be aware that removing the wrong apks may f*ck up your rom (oh, really?), so a nandroid-backup is recommended :silly:

I wonder if setting S-off would help the camera problem i am having with my One. I posted the problem a few minutes ago. My question is what is S-On or S-off mean? I saw when I was rooting my phone and flashing a custom kernel....
Can I ask what the two of you are even talking about ? I don't think you know .
No htc phone requires soff it's optional thing when available .And not always easy to achieve with HTC.You must gain an unlocked bootloader before you can root once you unlock and root you then can soff if it's been achieved for the specific device that one is attempting soff with.
It has nothing to do with needing it for root or needing it at all, soff just gives us the complete total control to flash kernels roms and a ton more of tech stuff.

You can't change soff or s on the way u think .It's not anything to do with what you are thinking.
Soff is very hard to achieve it takes great minds to do so . This is why HTC is greatly difficult to hack over the Samsung devices .
You don't need soff so stop worrying about it .trust me ,cause the HTC one is like the nexus models they work the same soff isn't needed really where as any other HTC soff phone is needed to flash roms in there entirety.
Without soff on most HTC phones you have to flash roms in pieces like boot.img has to be done from a pc before flashing the rom ,whereas the One can still do all that with s On.

Good day guys, I have noticed that a s-off solution for the desire x has not been achieved as of yet and seems to getting the way of this phone being ignored and at the bottom of the pecking order regarding a s-off solution.
I thought it might help you guys who want and is desperate for s-off on the desire x to make a request to moonshine as there is this email address to requesting a request for s-off asking to leave make and details for a request for s-off. ...email to with make and hboot version..etc to:-

I believe that moonshine as done a fantastic job in making the moonshine for s-off on devices but the more folk that request s-off for this device we stand a better chance of a solution

Many Dx users Have already messaged the moonshine team, and i imagine If their inbox starts getting flooded with s-off requests they will start to mark them as spam, we will get s-off when à member of such à team gets our device.

I'm sorry, wrong forum (HTC Desire X here only).
Well. Today I decided that rooting and flashing my flyer would be a good idea. So I decided to go to the dev site, and all I got was error 173. Which I ended up with, no matter how I many times I tried.
My flyer is currently running 3.2.1, stock hc, locked , and has s-on. I'll find the build number and the rest later. But I've spend 7 hours looking through various topics on downgrading, unlocking, and rooting, but it all stops at HTC dev, and I the only other way to unlock bootloader seems a bit too advanced for me. So, please guys, I really need a piece of advice, or help, and I shall be grateful. Contacting HTC on their Facebook, and on their Twitter, hasn't helped so far.
What is the best way to unlock the bootloader? Except htc dev ? And rooting it?
Thanks in advance.

Exactly. I just got contacted by htc about it. They don't know why it isn't working either. In order to downgrade my h boot, I need to have an unlocked bootloader or root, ne?
