UnRevoked Forever?

With the DInc Froyo OTA still on deck, what could this new software possibly mean for us?
Any ideas, folks?
Yes, I know in a few hours it will be unveiled probably, but I want to know what YOU think.

one word....s-off
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

Wow finally, eh? Thats a break from the more usual f_off lol.
Since this thread is already made, would anyone mind telling me 1 or 2 benefits of this? I'm a noob and really only know about rooting, flashing ROMs and some standard stuff in adb. How will having s_off help the herd of people like myself, or is it only for the devs and super nerds (no offense).

From what I understand, it allows you to flash new HBOOTs/radios at will, delete components within the /system folder while the phone is up and running, etc. I'm sure there are a host of other things, but that's what I'm aware of so far.

I guess all things Unrevoked Forever/s-off are in the "Unrevoked Tweet" thread in General topic. I'd link to it but am using the app and I don't think there's a way to do it.

...so having s-off will help the real nerds be able to develop more ROMS and themes and such for us?
I can flash a patch or a ROM, but I dont have patience for dev like some of you guys on here. Ill definitely stay close to the forums tonight though to try and learn more.

ill be up all nite on xda and irc refreshing the unrevoked forever page

Story of the Incredible's short life...

j/w, they are holding the fort down because of bricking (which I appreciate, I rather not have software that could cost me my phone and from what I've read it's almost a 50/50 rate bricking rate at that, not a <1% issue), however I'm curious which phone(s) it's affecting (the initial release was suppose to support Evo's and DInc's... so are both phone having bricking issues or only one of them).

Regarding the now-released Unrevoked Forever tool...

Nexus s cm7

Do a little reading before you make a fool out of yourself and a brick out of your phone.

LOL. i will be fun to read the thread after you do it and your phone wont boot and you cant recover it. well you can but it a real pain.

I think he should do it
Sent from my rooted froyo Fascinate

do it.
do it, then maybe you'll stop posting ridiculous posts in the development section.

Can't he just ODIN back is it ****s up?

as long as it will get back into download mode it should be possible to Odin back. not sure what can break the ability to get into download mode.

I hope he bricks his phone and his pc

he cant just odin back. it changes some important things. adry figured out how to fix it. its a big pain in the butt.

Seriously, instead of all the asinine comments, why not just say it won't work, and that it may brick his phone permanently? It's comments and flaming like this that make it near impossible to find helpful info in these forums. So if ur comments are not meant to help then don't post them!

guys he can i did the same thing once on my OG droid i flashed a miui update for the htc incredible on it and it really screwed a crap load of stuff up but u can fix it

This thread doesn't belong in development....and obviously gsm roms would not take on your phone

Works for me, I think your phone is toast

Short story, they still need a custom pit for mapping. And its would still be a serious challenge for the epic atm.

Unfortunately I don't think we will ever see it though it would be pretty kick ass.

Well we need to wake the devs up! Looks like waiting for source is not the only option! I would love deca's or noobnl's views on this!

All source does is make it easier for the devs...they can do without source, but they'd have to write evrything from the ground up, which, funnily enough, should've been done by now if the cm devs didn't keep falling back on the sauceline.
But its completely understandable. Its like when I used to play pokemon yellow. I've gone through mt.moon numerous times without flash, but flash makes it A LOT A LOT A LOT easier,so I go and get it.

FYI we need a donor device to get UnBrickable Mod onto Epic.
I thought I found someone but haven't heard back from them in a while.
BTW, "donor device" means a device which will have it's CPU (destructively) removed to find the correct pins and do the mapping.
See here for more info.
Keep an ear out for any dead / bricked Epics that someone might want to donate to the cause.

Oh, I like that, Abby. I'm saving that link.
Blazer, I always thought patience was a virtue, but we can do it your way too. How's this:
HEY TRAILBLAZER, GET OFF YOUR BUTT AND GET TO WORK!!! YOU SLACK A$$
Or would you prefer:
excuse me, mr. Trailblazer. Can I have another? (If you've ever read Dickens, you'll get it. If not, not so much.)

I literally Laughed out Loud bahaha
Done, and Done
And yeah, i got the reference, haha Nice
But yeah, it's up Go check it out guys, make sure it works P.S: Update to the Trailblazer101 Softkey Themer coming soon!

Haha, sorry guys. I was only trolling. Can't believe this phone got moved to this section with so much activity. You know, I have the HTC Hero, and the first time we got moved to legacy devices there were so many people causing an uproar that they moved us back out. You could try the same and make a thread, and if enough people complain they may move you back out in the open...
Worth a shot anyway.

ICS?

What happened to the ics thread?
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App

This is the ICS thread I had been reading started by MattCrystal (a continuation of Jaybob413's ICS):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542639
I think it was closed due to trolling or something, but I didn't really get what was going on tbh. Other than that, I'm not aware of much more going on as far as ICS goes.

Don't ask. I will open it when I feel like it. Nuff said.

Wow, that wasn't rude at all.

Didn't mean anything bad when I said that. I know it's none of my business, which is why I haven't inquired as to what was going on after I saw it was closed, I was just letting him know what I know, which isn't much.

The only did that because cm was including the gapps inside if the ROM, which unlike Android, are closed source. So, Google told them to stop that, and make it a separate zip.
On a separate note, is it possible to flash back to Matt's version from ajrtty's? I can't hold a phone conversation with his, it drops when it didn't on cm7.
