I still have the original bootlaoder and firmware that shipped with my device (1.44, I believe) and have never had an issue flashing various ROMs and radio images. Is this because an issue hasn't arisen yet or is it something that comes up when upgrading to a new iteration of android? I haven't flashed a kitkat rom yet and after reading this, I am worried that having s-on ciuld start to become an issue for me as to this point I haven't had a need to s-off my phone and subsequently update my firmware package.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3561477567278903065.post-14164892567092804412013-11-07T11:36:49.720+01:002013-11-07T11:36:49.720+01:00my htc sensation is stuck at htc logo coz of kerne...my htc sensation is stuck at htc logo coz of kernel bad flash .. so how can i repair my phone any adviceAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10088313318861195712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3561477567278903065.post-70294303143459557282013-10-30T11:03:02.519+01:002013-10-30T11:03:02.519+01:00Why you was reading this? :)Why you was reading this? :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3561477567278903065.post-78598295358094363502013-10-25T10:49:57.677+02:002013-10-25T10:49:57.677+02:00why would you flash boot img on soff device ?why would you flash boot img on soff device ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3561477567278903065.post-40372323989626188912013-10-16T02:30:30.502+02:002013-10-16T02:30:30.502+02:00Did you read the article?

I take your point, and I agree its a pity that we have to take the risks to achieve s-off, but it is necessary today. Until HTC change this s-off, is still necessary, that why so many have it. <br />Also HTC repair (at least in the UK) will see that your bootloader is/has been unlocked and deny warranty. It was the first thing they tried to do to me, although I eventually convinced them otherwise.<br />In my opinion HTC would do well to re-architect its current security functions to allow the functions detailed to be user managed, along with bootloader unlocking. Save s-on for where it is really needed, but if it gets in the way of what users want/need, s-off IS necessary.<br />Getting s-off, and having a phone that is s-off undoubtedly causes many problems for HTC repair ulitimately, so I have never understood why the complicated s-off dance with HTC is necessary. Its their design after all.Zaphod Beeblebroxhttp://changeco.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3561477567278903065.post-5687458669412747332013-09-23T11:03:06.966+02:002013-09-23T11:03:06.966+02:00Ken, you can't S-OFF HTC One X anyway :)Ken, you can't S-OFF HTC One X anyway :)mike1986https://www.blogger.com/profile/08817559995534095640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3561477567278903065.post-4017799604701905992013-09-23T10:53:00.305+02:002013-09-23T10:53:00.305+02:00Thank you very much for such an informative articl...Thank you very much for such an informative article.
