You have to download the android SDK to your pc and install platform tools or contains all the stuff you need to use adb to cmd. U will have to command from your platform tools folder to do this.

The HTC unlock page should walk you through setting up adb. It may seem like gibberish if you're not familiar with the windows command line. You need to have the correct files in a folder, and then open a cmd prompt in that folder. Just start over and follow every step to the letter.
Get to know "adb devices". If it doesn't list a random looking number, adb isn't detecting your phone, and nothing will work beyond that step.
can't unlock the bootloader
Hi there,
I have trouble unlocking the bootloader on my One S. I've been trying since Saturday and I'm stuck.
I've tried the HTCDev moethod but got stuck at "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin" after this it just stays at "sending 'unlocktoken' (0 KB)...".
Sometimes it stops saying "too many links", but mostly it just stays like this.
I tried 5-7 Unlock_code.bin files which I got from HTCDev, but none was working.
Is it normal that the "Identifier token" differs every time I "get" it?
Yesterday I tried out the All-In-One-Kit by Hansoon2000, got a new token, sent it to HTC and got another Unlock_code.bin.
Then I ran the Unlock bootloader procedure, the phone rebooted via adb to the bootloader, switched to fastboot and got stuck at the same position as mentioned above.
Just now I tried deinstalling HTCSync (read that it could help in an other forum), rebooted my PC and used the All-In-One toolkit again.
This time I got something new:
After "sending 'unlocktoken' (0 KB)..." it said "INFOstart check_usb: usb_ep0: type=128 request=6" but after this nothing again...
Trying it now, I don't get that message anymore. It's just like "gone".
Also tried:
different usb cables
different usb ports
Here is what I get from the cmd prompt:
c:\Android>adb devices
c:\Android>adb devices
List of devices attached
SH241W403657 device
c:\Android>adb kill-server
c:\Android>adb reboot bootloader
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

I bought the phone used. Already asked the previous owner if he had the phone repaired or did it unlock/rot/whatever already. His answer was no to both.
I hope I forgot nothing, if so please tell me
Thanks

edit: just tried it on my laptop via the All-In-One toolkit and it worked fine. problem solved, though i don't know why :S.
The unlock token was probably not in same folder as fastboot.exe OR you weren't in the right directory in cmd prompt. Either way... glad it worked

Is it possible to get the phone back to S-Off when I have no ROM installed. The unrevoked-program is just "waiting for device".
I had my phone S-Off before, but had plans to return it to warranty so went back to S-On but without a ROM installed. So now I cant do anything with my phone, or is there a way to get a working ROM without making it S-OFF?

Run 'Fastboot getvar all' in fastboot to get your misc version

Have connected the phone with fastboot. And installed the android SDK only on my PC, did install it on my secondary HDD. (A:/Android)
In Cmd, what should I type there?
edit: maybe I need to install the Android SDK on my C: (primary partion with windows on)?
EDIT: Have re-installed the SDK with adb and fastboot on C: and its working, but getting "error, device not found"
When typing "fastboot" I got a menu in the cmd with different commands...

Is there a tut on how to downgrade that?...found them, but there are more than 1 to follow, wich one?
Sorry I missed something there. You need at least stock rom, but im not sure whether you can install it or not.
find it here. find the oldest one based on your region.
this is the best place for Desire S 101 ( Guide )
I've sent my DS off for warranty, and it was returned with the new ics update installed on it. I immediately found out that the method i used to downgrade it from hboot 2.00 to 0.98(zergRUsh/tacoroot) wasn't working anymore. Are there any alternatives to unlocking the bootloader with htcdev, rooting and then going thru the whole downgrading procedures? Are there any other temproot exploits or are them under development?
Try this

Trouble getting htc dev unlocked
I've submitted the unlocking request on htcdev, and was sent the unlock_code.bin file. The trouble is I can't get it flashed thru fastboot.
I type
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
and it stucks on sending 'unlocktoken'. The bootloader does something, as to reboot it I have to close the command prompt, reopen it and type fastboot reboot-bootloader and it rebbots just fine.
I tried several times, but without luck. What can I do?
Anyone?

Maybe you can try to flash a eng hboot from your SD card on your phone.
You also need a resent version of busybox
Shut down your phone and pull the battery and wait 5 minuter before you put
your battery back. In the mean time install the lastest HTC-USB drivers on you computer.
Start your device in bootloader mode and plug it in to your computer.
You now got bootloader-usb. Now flash your Unlock_code.bin.
"fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin"
Boot your phone in recovery
Make a nandroid backup of your ROM, reboot your phone
To make a backup of the hboot by entering this:
1) open terminal on your phone
2) su
3) dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 of=/sdcard/backup.img
download a eng hboot.img and copy it to the SDcard/
1) open terminal on your phone
2) su
3) dd if=/sdcard/hboot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
4) close the therminal
reboot in bootloader an see witch version of bootloader you got
If it has workt go to recovery and do a factory resset, reset dalvik and install a new rom and reboot
It works for me because my phone has revolutionary root but you can give it a try because I have not
found anyone has done this with HTC-dev, I also got no experience with HTC-dev.
Good luck ( I'm not responsible for any damage on your device )

From that page I gave you the link to there should be all the information you need to read and understand what/how to do and why.
Don't expect people to spoon-feed you the answers as you need to learn or you will simply screw your phone up and then start blaming everyone else on XDA for it.

don't forget to enable usb debuging mode from settings
have you installed htc drivers?
also use usb 2.0 ports
and make sure that in your bootloader screen it says fastboot usb(when you connect the device to pc)
Depending which method you use, but I would suggest to remove all usb devices connected to your PC (not keyboard and mouse) before you start.

1 just tell me did you got your motherboard changed as after changing motherboard you cannot use htcdev.com unlock method
2 If you cannot use this method to unlock your bootloader its totally fine use the link which i have given you before ,you can s off with that meathod and then their will be no need for unlocking bootloader

3 i just checked that your token shows 0kb are you sure as mine was 1kb it dosent make a difference but i think download the unlock token again and see
I had to send my phone off for repairs so maybe I will try the method you have posted, and yes its wierd the file it 1kb but its saying 0kb in cmd

Yes, if you just couldn't get the fastboot to work, you could flash rom fastboot in linux. First, you need to open RUU.exe, and continue till see the image version. i.e from image: 3.18.xxx.7 to ....... Then, in windows 8 open task manager, and find ROM Update U....(in win7 is ARUWizard.) locate the file. you will find in the folder there is rom_01.zip and rom_02.zip. rom_01.zip is hboot only. you could flash that first. then flash rom_02.zip(you could skip it of cause) [SOME of the older RUU only have rom.zip]
keep in mind, is "not a safe" method to do so.
Best of Luck and Sucessful get RUU.
Use a windows VM. You'll need to remember to force the USB reconnection since during the ruu the phone reboots several times and if you don't reconnect it you risk bricking.

Yes. When I boot into fastboot mode the device comes up as malfunctioning and it says something about the device enumeration failing. When I type in fastboot devices no devices come up. Have installed HTC sync. Will that install HTC drivers on windows 8.1? Also how dangerous is it to flash rom_1.zip? Could it possibly brick my device?

Don't bother flashing that. the RUU is the only way to update properly, HBoot/firmwares and all.
What happens when you try to RUU on windows 8?
Did you try running the RUU while the phone is in fastboot mode?
When I am in the android OS the ruu brings up my device info but thinking that it will require fastboot to work I didn't try. When I boot into fastboot mode it gives the error 170. So I go to cmd and type in fastboot devices and it returns nothing just a blank list. A windows also pops up saying the device is malfunctioning and something about the device enumeration failing.

My windows 8.1 64-bit does that too. I think I ended up using a different PC to RUU. I can't remember if I had fastboot working on 8 or not before I upgraded. I've tried different ports and cables. I've uninstalled and reinstalled drivers over and over.

Can't run it in evaluation mode?

No since I can't get the fastboot drivers working

Just use a windows 7 or xp virtual machine -_- it will take time to install and you'll need to force reconnect the USB connection but it will work just fine.

Don't bother flashing that. the RUU is the only way to update properly, HBoot/firmwares and all.
What happens when you try to RUU on windows 8?
Did you try running the RUU while the phone is in fastboot mode?

What is the difference between flashing Rom_1.zip and Rom_2.zip compared to RUUing? For the sake of installing CM11 does it really matter? I'll have no alternative pc or virtual machine to RUU within the near future...

To install cm you must run the proper 3.18 ruu exe program. It isn't the ROM component that's important, it's all the other parts that are required for aosp ROMs.
