Yes, bit only with s-off

Is there a thread you could point to? or a link to a walk through. I've searched and can only find instructions for rooting with an unlocked bootloader.

Hey all, I was looking to find a guide about how to root now that we have ics. I was rooted but unrooted to get the OTA. I have s on and a relocked bootloader. I assume I just unlock the bootloader again and I flash some sort of recovery then install superuser, but I would like to see a guide to make sure I am doing things right. Thanks!

Hey guys im looking to get help and a tutorial on how to root the 4g lte on 2.13? I've searched online but still haven't found an answer to my question. So if you are reading this let me know how to root it thanks.
Your only option is to use the htcdev.com method. You cannot get s-off though.

Go to htcdev.com and follow the instructions. It's really easy. And there are plenty of tutorials in the development section - stickies.

HTC dev. It's fairly straightforward, then flash recovery and then rooted Rom . At least that's what I done

You've already been given a couple links with step-by-step guides.
I suggest reading this guide first to help you understand the terminology better: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1869377
Then if you have any specific questions please let us know. Saying simply that "you still don't know what to do" after being given a couple of direct links to guides will get you nowhere.

Unlocking your bootloader using HTCDev Unlock will allow you to flash a custom recovery. With a custom recovery, obtaining root is easy (plenty of flashable ZIPs for this). This has nothing to do with your version of HBOOT (or firmware or OTA version).
Read the guide I linked to above and it will answer these questions...
Added relevant info pertaining to dev unlock!

I have read through each link provided on here but the all say for software 1.22, and not 2.13... please help
I've seen a few developers posting in this forum saying once root comes (and more users changing roms because of this) they'll port their rom to this phone.
Can we get a list of the devs that pledge to port their rom to this phone?

I think getting people to pledge anything rom wise is a bit extreme
Also, this probably belongs in general or q & a as its not development
If the bootloader is locked can we even install custom roms? I am rooted on dev edition but did not know how to unlock bootloader.

you are s-off, you don't need to worry about the bootloader, you are done, ready, etc.

Dev unlock doesn't give s-off if that's what he's talking about.

i think he has one on the factory s-off phones, and his bootloader says locked, i presume this is the situation.

Yep, he has S-OFF from the factory.
Is this possible and if so, can you point me to the right direction?

Depends on your hboot I guess. If you're on 1.22.651.1 and older, i guess you can use the method below

Pretty sure htcdev is the only route unless facepalm bypasses it . I haven't checked out that method. HTC dev works so why would anyone spent countless hours trying to gain root when a perfectly fine route exists.

Because I'm concerned about relocking my bootloader, if I use that method, and having it say LOCKED instead of RELOCKED.

My HBOOT is 2.09 and my software version is 3.16.651.3 710 RD. I guess I can't do it?
You will have to unlock and s-off in order for you to have the option of locking back to stock without the relock message.

Couple questions:
Do you s-off first and then root or root then s-off?
What guide did you use?

This guide is a great tool to follow. Basically, you'll need to use HTCDEV to unlock your bootloader, than use the DirtyRacun/BabyRacun to RUU back to 3.15 than you'll be able to get S-Off

I got mine rooted and s-off. Do the firewater method. It took a bit of common sense to get it all going, but I finally did it. It's not letting me post the link to the video so just DM and I'll get it to you.
You also might wanna learn a bit on entering commands.
Good luck!:good:
