S-OFF Achieved for Permanent Root (AlphaRev Team)

[Devinhfox]

Umm sorry to be the party pooper but where can I find the link to perform this permanent root?

 

[applejacks108]

s-off isn't root. neither are out yet. they're still finishing up testing and making sure nothing crazy will happen so you don't brick your phone. s-off is just so that root doesn't get erased on reboot like what would happen with teh temp root. so perm root should be out soon.

let's hope so. this would make a great phone even better.

We already have the root. Once you get S-off you can use the temp root and it will stay perm. Get the clockwork recovery installed and your rotted and flashable.

So applejacks was lying (misinformed?)
Permanent root is done? Installing clockwork is all it takes?

nope.. nothing incorrect at all about applejacks's post. inc2 is not yet supported to be s-off'ed. so you can't install clockwork or do perm root.

It sounded like we could.
Quit making declarations that aren't true, people.
This is the inc2 forum, not the incs

 

[bik2101]

no.. i think your just misunderstanding other people's posts. abtxpress was saying that once you get s-off, which should be coming soon, you just have to get clockwork installed and you'll be rootable. please read more carefully.

Confusing

Now just waiting for CM7

what is CM7?

 

[Dark Wizard Matoya]

what is CM7?

Cyanogenmod 7. It's one of, if not the most, popular Android Open Source Project ROM's out there. I'm running it on my OG Dinc and I love it. I wouldn't want to run anything else.

CyanogenMod | Android Community Rom based on Gingerbread

 

[abtxpress]

Personally I like to just tinker with the shipped rom making my mods to it and eliminating the VZW crapware. I hate city id and Vcast. I would share my customization publicly but some of my mods include legality issues if you know what I mean. So I am scared to share them.
I do not like the asop roms. I have to have sense.

Has perm S-off been achieved since someone posted a ROM? I assume so but not sure how to find out. Are there instructions with AlphaRev X? Sorry to be a noob!

the ones posting the roms are the people who have perm root. they have perm root because they were part of alpharevx's beta testing, they're just starting on making roms and other things for us so that when s-off is publicly released we can do stuff with it right away.

 

[skyboxer]

From looking at the AlphaRev website it looked like you have to achieve root (temporarily i guess) before running the S-off installer? I don't know, I'm just another recent BB convert who knows little about this stuff. Hopefully i can learn to do the thing properly without destroying my phone first . I'm sure when the tools are ready, someone will post a step-by-step guide.

 

[Last Ride]

Okay, I may be ignorant, but are there instructions somewhere on how exactly to get S-Off?

 

[bik2101]

nope. not available to us yet

 

[thawkth]

So beyond excited...

Can't wait for more ROMs to come out. THANKS!!
