S-off and s-on question - Flipside General

I'm new to HTC but not android.
And have never heard of s-off or s-on.
Can someone explain what they are, I've searched it but don't understand techy terms much...
Any help would be much appreciated.

Nevermind found a thread that explained it in dumb-ass terms!
Mods please remove!

Root? Why not?

For what reason would I not root my phone, besides the possibility of owning an expensive paper weight...

This question has been answered many times, and should be in the QA forum not in the development forum. Please use the search feature of the forum.

Biggest problem is you could brick your device. The other is yes technically it does void your warranty but I have never heard of anyone being denied warranty exchanges on a root device.
It's always been my experience that bricks aren't likely. I've flashed quite a few things. Is it any more likely in this case?

If you can read then you won't have problem rooting. Everything is writing in steps. Unless you are a retard then don't try .
Hahaha I think I'll be alright. Other than almost dd'ing a hard drive the wrong way once I'm pretty astute. I'll probably root next week.

Anyone have favorites on roms, while we're at it.

Hey mate, if I can root anyone can, if u need help pm me. As roms go, u can't really go wrong. Iced and the DHD (desire hd) roms are much like what your running stock just with slightly improved graphics and other customizations. Miui is from another planet where android and ios had a baby, slick smooth and very dif from any other rom ive ever tried. I like it but its kinda like a plymouth prowler, kinda cool lookin but just not quick enough. Cm-6 is prolly the best and def the cleanest android experience. Ive had a couple issues with it but its still what im running.
Awesome reply srivers33 good info. I was leaning towards iced (seems pretty popular) I am looking for something more vanilla but def not a requirement. I might just flash a few and try them each for a little.

Backups
Always make sure u do a true perm root and use rom manager and its clockwork mod recovery to back up the stock. That way if stock 2.3 releases before a good 2.3 rom releases you can just flash and update to 2.3!!!
Thanks dont think I read that in any posts, its a good idea. Definitely sounds easier to go back

Cm7 or royalglacier?

Maybe becuase your post doesn't make sense and its useless.
Your title says cm or royalginger but your first post is a myspace address that's not even clickable.
Which I'm guessing its your sig. So basically you started a thread without post.

lol I like it camalus... but to answer the question it varies on what you want. sense is bloated. sense is like a fat chick in a room full of super models. (originally posted by neidlinger i think..)
Sense is like a fat chick... both lag IRL.

Camalus nailed it. Thanks.

Well... You should, if not already, put ROM Manager on your phone and try both out.

Are any developers moving on to the sensation?

Maybe
I will be porting my AOSP Rom over to the sensation if and when they get the bootloader unlocked. I know I know HTC announced they are not locking the bootloaders no more but the sensation is still gonna be locked until either a dev unlocks it or htc unlocks it which I hope both happen
I'll be keeping a close eye on the sensation.
That said with the mt4g being updated by the great people here I could see myself with this phone for quite a while.
I'm not a gamer or power user so for me it would be for bigger screen and other liitle perks. The battery is a big issue for me.....its going to be a hog.

I hope the Glacier doesn't get abandoned by all our devs when the sensation comes. Im not ready to part with mine yet.

[FOR SALE] HTC Wildfire with AlphaRev S-OFF

Hello,
You may know me for my work on Wildfire, particularly kernels and ROMs. I bought a ZTE Blade a few months ago and now I am selling my Wildfire.
It comes with rooted with AlphaRev S-OFF (HBOOT 1.01) and a ROM of your choice.
I'm looking to either sell it or maybe part exchange it for a better device (e.g. Desire Z)
Email me at [email protected] with offers if interested.
Thanks,
Jacob
