[Q] Can't Unlock Boatloader using HTCdev - HTC Inspire 4G

I wanted to root my phone and apparently I have to unlock it using the HTCdev boatloader first but I can't.
It says on HTCdev that I have to select the "Fastboot" option from the boatloader but I can't select anything. It shows the options for a second then it switches to this automatically:
postimage.org/w57u6jjh5/photo.jpg I can't put the full link because xda forums doesn't allow to post links until after 10 days but just copy that and put it in your browser.
(I got this picture somewhere from the internet but it's exactly what I see on my device).
After that, it says something like "Failed. Press Power to Reboot." Help?

Mine keeps doing the same thing... Very frustrating!!!

Sorry , I can see the picture, but what is actually going on? wasn't you bootloader relocked?

HTCDev log in loop
Anyone know how to solve log in loop on HTCDev ?
I've tried to unlock my HTC Desire C's bootloader.
But it asked me to sign in whenever I try to click 'Begin Unlock Bootloader'(even I've sigened in).
Can anyone help me to solve this and unlock my Bootloader ?

make sure that you register to htcdev and if it is ok with you, I can help you over teamviever.

I've registered and verified my account already. But it asked me to sign in again and again whenever I try to unlock.

Any root method that I can also unroot in case I need to return the phone?

Hey guys, I just got the awesome One S and looking to root it asap. Is there a root method that doesn't give you the TAMPERED notice in case I need to replace the phone?

NO,
You need to flash stock image, bootloader will stay unlocked. That should not be an issue.
The stock images are floating around sub-forum, maybe just do a search/google. Or someone will give you a link
Hmm so basically what you're saying is that I can return/replace the phone as long as I flash back to stock even if the bootloader is unlocked? I want to be sure before I go flash happy on it.

nothing is for sure
but htc allows bootloader unlock, would think if it is a hardware issue, it wouldn't be a problem
never count on it though
No doubt, I figured as much too. Thanks rugmankc, I'll wait a little longer then.

The tampering message comes up no matter what. No matter if your boot loader is unlocked. It's the unlock unlock bootloadet message parts that you need to worry about. If I'm not mistaken there a relock command code to relock it. Just fellow the unlock bootloader directions but at the end change the unlock command to the relock command.

But from what I've read, even if you relock it, it still says "Relocked" as opposed to "Locked". Is that correct?
Don't know
yeah i think i'll wait until there's a work around for this.

yes, you can if you follow the unlock steps from htcdev.
it tells you, you can relock it by
fastboot oem lock

if you're lucky.. the bootloader will say "relocked" instead of locked.

so will the htcdev have a record that I 've unlock the bootloader before?
and how can I make it to be "locked" instead of "relocked" ?
tks
Not sure about it going on record, but no, as of now there is no way to make it say locked again *that I'm aware of*.
Htc will know you had unlocked it before but others probably wont see it since I've exchange my HTC One X at bestbuy after the unlock without issue ... did not even relock it !
anyway if you're lucky by the time your phone briked maybe DEV will have found a way to change relock to lock hope this will come with the s-off/s-on ...

I managed to unlock the bootloader for my AT&T One X. These are the steps that I took.I think that the problem I had was that my root wasn't done completely. SuperSU was installed, but whenever I tried to use an app that required root, it would ask if I was rooted.
1. I factory reset my phone through the bootloader. (For me, this removed root).
2. I uninstalled the HTC drivers on my PC, then reinstalled.
3. Re-root, using this root.
3a. USB debugging enabled​3b. Disable fastboot.​3c. Make sure HTC sync isn't running.​3d. If using desktop, plug USB into the back of the computer.​4. Check and make sure root is working properly. You can go into SuperSU and it should update SU binaries.
5. Use this tool to unlock the bootloader.
That is what worked for me. I took every precaution I could think of and it worked. Good luck!

I'm running 3.18 on my att one x and having zero luck unlocking my phone via htcdev... keep getting error 160. I also cant find any one click roots for 3.18?? Any special steps I should know about?
That's because htcdev blocks AT&T phones. You need to get SuperCID first. You can't have looked very hard, because there is a 3.18 root method in the General section of our phone's forum. Also, you probably need to do some reading, because you should have known these facts before attempting to alter your phone.

You can't find any 1-click roots for 3.18, because there are none.
The "special steps" you should follow, are to first start looking at my Index thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237
Find the root method for 3.18. Then you will need to SuperCID. Then, and only then, will you be able to unlock the bootlaoder. Read read read.
Has anybody had this issue with the HTC One M4
To anybody that knows about these forums,
I have been trying to unlock the bootloader for the new HTC One from Verizon, I went to the HTcdev website, and I follow all the instructions step by step, I paste the code into the box, then it tells me some code error 160 mid not allowed, so now I have no clue what that means, I check out the websites and they all have similar instructions on unlocking the bootloader, but they all worked and none of them got the error 160 mid not allowed, I check out the error forums, and they are just as frustrating because they get detailed into what the reason in the code is, but considering that the need for the code to be all 1111 doesn't help when the phone won't even unlock through the htcdev site.
Has anyone else come up against this particular error and if so how was it resolved? Any help is greatly appreciated:fingers-crossed:
You're I'm the wrong forum buddy, this is the HTC One XL forum.

yeah i don't understand why registrations aren't happening...
but once you have the unlock.bin file i dont think you need htc dev....just put the file in the same folder as adb and fastboot...
run command prompt and flash the unlock file...
i dont remember the exact command but i think it is
Code:
fastboot flash unlocktoken <name of unlock file>
that should unlock your bootloader...pm me if more problems...
or just click the link in email i sent you for instructions
Where else i can get my unlock.bin besides htcdev sites bro......
I will apreciate and many thanks if someone could generate my unlock.bin file using my token above.

Have not trying it cause my pc were problem suddenly and need to reformat.
One question, i see some people in this forum were able to flash recovery and install custom rom while their device were in locked bootloader and s-on condition.
Can you give the right tutorial/link to do that, cause i'm still confuse reading so many tutorial here, include juoputbear and revolutionary. All i want is just to install recovery and flash custom rom. Thanks for the help.

Hey,
As far as i know, you absolutely cannot flash anything with locked bootloader and S-On...
If you want to root without HTC Dev unlock, then get S-Off from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1661631
The thread seems a little complicated and to be honest I have never done it...but other users have done it succesfully...so u may try it..
But i dont think you need to do that...If flashing roms is all you want to do...then just unlock bootloader and flash 4EXT recovery with smartflash enabled...works perfectly...
S-Off is only essential for getting Super CID (being able to flash any radio) and some other stuff....not essential for flashing roms
here is the thread for that
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
read it properly and follow steps...and you will be able to flash roms in no time..
Hope it helps
