what did you copy and paste?
copy exactly what you did and post it here. it could be that you didn't copy the complete token.
OR
you could try rooting via this method. it has been successful for me many times (i've rooted about 8 one s phones)

Hi.
I recently started to see if I could root my phone, but no succes..
I can't seem to unlock my phone using the HTCDev site. When the CMD program try's to load the unlock.bin I get a error that the installation failed.
I would love some help here on how to bypass that!
I currently run the latest android that came with the phone, this would be my first time rooting.
It's not bought with a provider so that should't be a problem..
I would like preferably run Android 4.3.
Is there ANY good RECENT tutorial showing how to unlock my phone and root to 4.3? All other tutorials I found were not very well understandable..

I have to check firstly, do you have fastboot and adb installed on your computer and working properly? If not follow this guide: http://www.redmondpie.com/how-to-set-up-android-adb-and-fastboot-on-windows-tutorial/
Unfortunately you cannot proceed any further without unlocking your phone. The instructions given in the HTC Dev website are very clear and precise (because you are trying to unlock an OEM phone, you MUST follow the instructions given in the HTC Dev website). If you follow the instructions correctly, you will be able to unlock your phone. Installing customs ROMs and Kernels only come after unlocking (and there are a lot of tutorials online that teach you).
Ok, so after some hit and trials, I was able to root the new htc desire 501 dual sim and i am sharing the infromation about doing the same here.
Note:Unlocking bootloader is necessary to root this particular phone.If you are unwiling/incapable of unlocking your bootloader then please look elsewhere.
Also, before beginning make sure that you have all the adb and fastboot drivers installed for your device.
The fun part:
Unlock your bootloader:
1. Goto http://www.htcdev.com/ and register yourself
2.Click 'unlock bootloader' on the home page>get started.
3.Choose 'htc desire*' from the drop down list.
4.Follow the steps.
After the unlocking is done , download the vroot application from http://www.mgyun.com/en/getvroot and root your device.
Sweet!

I did everything as was mentioned and tried to unlock bootloader of my Htc desire 501, but at very last step of copying the token and hit submit button, it showed the error.. "token length is too small", i guessed token length was invalid. I copied the whole of token length as said from start of token to its end, but was in vain. In snapshots oh htcdev, it showed token with info as well as bootloader column. But in my case it showed only bootloader token. Help me short this out, there is error in my token length, how can i fix that, please help me. Or do u have unlock.bin file? Will that work for me? It it can help me out can you upload that file. Please help me to short this error.

Hi can i use this method for all android devices?
Hi, I tried to unlock my HTC One S on 4 differents paid websites, but all say "unfortunately your unlock code cannot be calcuted, please double check your IMEI blabla" ). Since yestarday I kept trying these methods with NO SUCCESS.
Terminal emulator and ADB Shell say String not Fount / No IMEI
I try the method with ES file explorer. The bad news is The file "mmcblk0p6" is crypted when i opened as text. but when i open with notepad++ on my laptop THE IMEI in the file "mmcblk0p6" is completely different when I type *#06#
I calculate the NCK code with both IMEI, phone says "incorrect password" I pay for the IMEI i find in the file, the server send me the same NCK with the app in method 2.
All necessary information about IMEI, model, carrier are in the attachment
Please anyone have an idea?

No, you can only use this method for HTC One S S4 processor

Exactly where is this location in android ?
/system
simple but very confusing. Everything is /android/device etc.. Thanks
Need unlock code again after reboot
benJX said:
Thanks for your great and very useful work !
I'm actually on Orange FR carrier.
When I insert a sim from another carrier the phone asked me & I wrote the combination.
It said it was now unlocked and when I press "Reboot" the phone freeze instead of rebooting
Any idea ? The CID perhaps ?
Device : hTC One S
About : Facepalm S-OFF -- Hboot 2.16 -- CID HTC__203 -- Radio 1.20
Rom : MaximusHD -- SENSE 5.0 ANDROID 4.2.2
Kernel : ElementalX v6.1
Thx in advance
Edit : I get this error while running the script :
sh: /system/unlock.sh[65]: length: not found

I think I have a similar problem.
I have an HTC One S (I think S4 - 1.5Ghz). It is locked to ORange. I unlocked bootloader, rooted and finally managed to get busybox etc installed.
Method 1 and 2 provide the same code-
IMEI: 2547014 (last 7 digits)
Un lock code: 062975078
(sim unlock 61522531)
Method 3 didn't work as I got stuck after loading grep etc via busybox.
When I entered the unlock code I calculated the phone said unlock successful and that a reboot was necessary, but when it rebooted it asked for the unlock code again! I tried a different recovery (was using clockwork, went to twrp but still asked for the code on reboot.
I am scared to re-enter the code as I know I have limited tries - so far I have only entered it the once. I have factory resetted the phone - should I try and enter the code again?
I have now lost the boot screen after the factory reset so I don't think I can check the hboot.
As far as I am aware I did not install a new ROM at any point.
Thankyou thankyou and thankyou :->
We cannot thank you enough for sharing this brief 'tutuorial'. It worked like a charm once we had rooted the phone (which was the tricky part).
In case of it being helpful to anyone else, our device was prepared using:-
- CWM Ville with Touch Recovery ROM image.
- Chainfire SuperSU.
- BusyBox (must use Team Trickster's 'on Rails' initially so as to install from ZIP/SD storage,) followed by an immediate upgrade using the stericson version).
After installing that little lot, the acquisition of the sim unlock code was was a breeze. Thank you again.
Tested on HTC One S (S4)
Locked to Spanish vodafone
Worked like a charm
Had a little trouble installing busybox so installed viper S rom 2 and things went straight
Thank you very much
Cincinatti Bell Wireless
SIM unlock worked great after my crashcourse on rooting, recovery, and the bootloader all last night. But even customer support with HTC and T Mobile told me since it's from Cincinatti Bell Wireless, T Mobiles internet service WILL NOT WORK. :crying:
There's gotta be a work-around. Any way to move a Cincinatti Bell Wireless exclusive phone to T Mobile? There ought to be considering their wireless service is ending in a month. That carrier wasn't even in my area.

Tried all methods, outputting wrong IMEI
Hi guys, I've tried all the methods and I'm ending up at the same unlock code which doesn't work. I noticed the stated IMEI in the bash script is different to my actual IMEI, and so I guess the Un_Lock Code is wrong as well. I've checked the mmcblk0 files using a hex editor and the correct IMEI is in there. Does anyone have any ideas?
I am unlocked, S-off, SuperCID, clockwork Mod recovery, busybox installed, running the Stock ROM from factory reset.
Thanks
hi,
so i can't get unlock code with this command
su [enter]
strings -n 8 /dev/block/mmcblk0p6 [enter]
but it work well with this one
1. Note IMEI *#06#
2. adb shell
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 of=/sdcard/mmcp6.dump
3. Open mmcp6.dump on SDCARD
4. Look for in this file your IMEI
5. Just in front of your IMEI a 8-digit code which corresponds to the unlock code
may help some one
with regards

Hi guys
i just received it.. i found some informations on How to root but i'd love to be sure before
Which one of the different methods is the best?
thank you so much !
P.S. will i really lose the " black gold " theme once i root??
OK i reply to myself
i followed this steps:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56004439&postcount=1
just be careful if you copy and paste FASTBOOT commands.. there is a mistake the right command is :
adb reboot-bootloader ( and not bootlader as reported.. for type mistake )
to receive your UNLOCK CODE u need your imei and serial number and input this info here:
http://en.club.vmall.com/emotiondownload.php?mod=unlock&action=pre
TO GET PRODUCT ID you must download Huawei product ID generator here:
http://d-h.st/10o

:good:
After days of trying to root w/o unlocking boot loader that resulted to a failure cuz my device is not vulnerable. I decided to root it the old fashioned way. I'm new to rooting and didn't understand some of the instructions written on the guides. I was forced to look into every other guides on the net to make me understand. Some has Chinese some I don't know so when I got to finally root my HAM7 I was so happy. I may make a video of this and compile the files I used to make the rooting to help others who like me, doesn't want to ask around until something goes wrong.
Looking forward knowing this way..I tried everything too but still no luck rooting my international gold edition ..don't want to unlock bootloader either.
