HTC Toestelle

Alock sal nie werk in jou toestel die sogenaamde S-ON stelsel gebruik nie. Hierdie 'eienskap' bestaan gewoonlik op HTC Toestelle en verhoed AdAaway om na die gasheer lêers te skryf.

S-ON/S-OFF?

S=OFF beteken dat die NAND deel van die toestel ontsluit is en geredigeer kan word. Die verstek instelling vit HTC is S-ON, wat beteken dat sekere dele ontoeganklik is en nie geredigeer kan word nie. Verder meer , die egtheid van die kern sagteware word verseker deur die S-ON vlag.

Het ek S-ON of S-OFF?

Boot into the Boot Menu on your device by holding down volume down button while pressing power and the text on top will show the flag status as either S-OFF or S-ON. A full root generally means S-OFF.

Omseil

Prerequisite: You have to install a working Android SDK with ADB shell on your PC.

  1. Boot into the Boot Menu on your device by holding down volume down button while pressing power.
  2. Use volume down to select recovery then power to boot it.
  3. In clockwork recovery go to "partitions menu".
  4. Select mount /system, mount /sdcard and mount /data.
  5. Plug in your USB cord and open a command line on your pc.
  6. Enter adb shell and type ln -s /data/hosts /system/etc/hosts (This creates a symbolic link, which allows Alock to edit the hosts file stored in /data while allowing the OS to use the file as if it were stored in /system.)

  8. Alock behoort nou te werk.
