Being sent a refurb again

My question is that if it comes with all the current updates can I root it by using the PBIMG and fastboot the rooted recovery image?

Yes. As far as I am aware any Eris is rootable using the universal method.

yeah it should still be possible

Thanks a bunch for the quick reply.
Take it easy and remember if its that easy take it twice

I got a refurb last week and the flashboot method don't work you'll have to use the new method

No, you will not be able to root using the PBIMG root ROM method. You will have to use the universal root method for HBOOT 1.49.

You will have to do the new method. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=724741 I got my phone just about a month ago and I had to use this method. But it still roots you and thats the goal here

Why we need super CID?

Why we need superCID on HTC device? what is the advantages of it?

It's stops OTA updates form getting installed on your phone. And I think its simunlock to

It doesn't necessarily stop otas from installing. It depends on the ota itself some check the did and some don't. I believe on our device it doesn't check.
Supercid is used to allow a user to flash any ruu for its device. So say I have a branded vodafone dhd with super cid I could flash the unbranded wwe ruu or say maybe I need Arabic support so I flash an ruu that has that

I haven't been able to apply any OTA with supercid.

You were full blown stock correct? No root. Just as if you have flashed an ruu and updated it on its own. Because I remember back in the firmware 1.32 days and even 2.x people were able to ota up.

Nop I was rooted stock with S-OFF and supercid.
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using xda premium

That's why you had issues. You were rooted. Otas don't work if rooted on our device.

Stop trying to OTA. XDA will always have the ROM up faster than most 99% of the time. Besides, it's easy to wait for people on XDA to get a safe package together. Especially with phones like the AT&T One XL.

So if I change cid to 1111111. Means I have sim unlock?

Even unrooted stock with S-OFF and supercid couldn't apply OTA. And now this was a long time ago.

Then, No. You're stuck.

And so it begins.....

Well stuck for now .. There will be another root method but by the time it is found interest in this device may be gone. I went something like 9 months waiting for root the first go around.

Another root method could happen sure... But unlocking not likely at all.. The only reason we got the 2nd chance we did is because someone at moto "accidentally" used the old tz code that's vulnerable to Dan Rosenbergs exploit

I'm in this same situation, however, my bootloader is unlocked. I tried towelroot again, it says my device is not supported.

I finally managed to get it worked out. One problem is that root checker was telling me I had no root even though I do. That lying skank! Now that I got that, I'm trying to deal with the VZW hotspot issue. The latest ota update seems to have made the problem more difficult. Thanks for advice, though!

Will the 183 mod work on 182 (which I'm on)?

It may but to be safe you could post your build.prop for Topsnake

Any hope in the foreseeable future? Or maybe it is time to upgrade my droid.

This last root was a blanket one that rooted most phones. I'm sure another will present itself but I had my phone nearly 9 months without root.

Unlocked on AT&T

Hello, I just bought an HTC 10 from someone, its unlocked,S-off, and rooted. Currently running NuSense 7.0 with no issues. ATT installed my nano sim, set up APNs and I get 4gLTE. Question is..can I also run US unlocked roms as well?!? Change firmware and/or radios?! If not, could someone direct me in what and how to do it being I'm on ATT?! Thank you for your time.

Yeah you can fully convert to unlocked ruu and then run unlocked based roms. In fact it would probably be better in your case.

I don't understand the issue. There is a very clear guide on how to root here https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/general/guide-how-to-root-pure-style-t3503958. I was able to install TWRP and root with relative ease. The hardest part is just making sure you read for the details.

I successfully downgraded from marshmallow to lollipop and unlocked bootloader installed TWRP and rooted,then bypassed the factory reset protection so I could log in to Google on the set up screen.
