This is S-ON mobile phone. You need to change it into S-OFF mode. Then only it possible to do this rooting task onto your mobile phone. Making the phone S-OFF, means you reset the simlock, userlock and CID to factory state. It’s another meaning is your smartphone is 100% UNLOCKED. Bootloader and the Radio are two levels of this mobile phone. Keep these things on your mind. There is necessary to convert your mobile phone into S-OFF mode.

Once the HBoot (a.k.a Bootloader) on the mobile phone is S-OFF, we can write to all the partitions and basically do whatever we want. Hence there is necessary to make this mobile phone as to be S-OFF before doing any rooting task onto it. For doing this task you need to follow below mentioned process:

• Open Settings-> Power, and locate “Fast boot” mode. Un-tick the checkbox to disable it.

• A white screen will come with some info and top of the screen has info about the Security status of the phone. It is “ VIVO PVT SHIP S-ON RL”, mobile phone is security turned ON (S-ON) otherwise if it is VIVO PVT SHIP S-OFF RL, then the security is OFF.

S-on = a locked phone, can't root it. S-off = an unlocked phone that can have custom roms. As per the few articles published about this HTC Rezound mobile phone, this is S-On mobile phone and hence we need to first change it to the S-OFF mode. Then only we can perform this rooting task onto it.
