I made this thread mainly for questions and answers about what we need to do to prepare for Beaups Moonshine S-Off. It appears there are a lot of members who have questions about how to go about preparing their computer and phone for the new method, and this should provide them a place to get all their questions out without bringing other threads off topic.
Actually a thread was already created for this by Kaliblazin which can be found here:

If you are looking for something to do while waiting for s-off, go ahead and update to 2.06. The tool will be released with 2.06 support only, for the time being.
edit: also, it wouldn't hurt to get a 32bit linux livecd or liveusb or native install ready. And familiarize yourself a little with it.

Hey guys, I decided to start this because sometimes you bump into some know it all people that think you're stupid for wanting to know things. I have an EVO 3d with hboot 1.50 and I canonot flash kernels with and. Any ideas ? If anybody else has questions about the 3d, you should ask here. Maybe we can all help each other. No smart ass comments allowed.

I got that a second ago, on another thread. I think there must be a system glitch.
Go to the 3D section, then q&a and in the app hit the stickies at the top and it will be listed there.

Just got my HTC One X+ a couple weeks ago and I've been looking to root the device. It's from AT&T though and as far as I have researched, the device right now can't be rooted? I am just making sure. Can it or can't it be rooted right now? Much appreciated!

You'll want to read this.

There are a few other threads you'll want to read for reference. You should be able to find those. You can go through this process manually which takes a little longer but you'll learn more.
Make sure your flash the TWRP recovery to your AT&T phone. The CWM recovery will result in tears.

Just flash a kernel and Rom based on the old firmware, and flash the old radios if you are s off.

Since we have the original file, has anyone tried to RUU back/downgrade to the previous version? I feel like this is too obvious and won't work.

Yeap there's safeguards in place to keep people from flashing firmware older than what's currently installed on a locked device.

I offered $20 to the first person to post a working exploit to unlock the bootloader after taking the OTA. Just thought I would repost this offer here. I prob won't monitor both threads. PM me if you posted first and want the cash! Thanks in advance.

You should contact the guy who was offering to s off via the oem jtag method. His price was very reasonable, and a quick turnaround. His thread is titled something along the lines of "S-off for the impatient"
His s off service wasn't much more expensive than the $20 you put up for bounty money.

Hello everyone!
Saw this on the Ruby 3.4 Kernel thread

I was thinking the exact same thing... getting too much notifications about activity on the thread whereas it is just discussion and general things, So I took the liberty of making this thread so that @sportsstar89 and all the other developers can spend more time working and less on replying ETA and general questions in dev area! Rather it's just a BUMP thread here so we can ask @sportsstar89 about his football and school routine I guess and so rest of Amaze4G forum stops frantically rushing to the Ruby 3.4 Kernel thread.
P.S. @kusso92 @ezdi I am as anxious as you guys are!!
Ciao!
In my honest opinion, Sports should just LOCK the 3.4 kernel thread until he is ready for something so no one posts useless crap on it. it takes only ONE person to bump it all the way to the top of the thread list. People don't understand.
That's just what I think. There's developers that have to deal with a lot of OT on their threads so they occasionally lock it to let it cool down. Then they unlock it.
Edit: Also, I don't see how this is going to help. Sorry to burst your bubble, Huzaifa.
Bump lol
