I've read thru quite a bit of threads but found no solution to the problem, Im trying to unlock the bootloader but I cant seem to be able to login to the htcdev website. It keeps resetting everytime after 'login success' screen is shown.
However, when I try to just proceed with 'unlock bootloader' and login thru the popup window, I get logged in, but once I go thru those legal terms and stuff, I go back to not being logged in again. Is there some way I can bypass this problem? Tried many other browers but didnt work :S

long story short. i bought a locked g1. did the factory reset. dont have data but have a sim card. i was trying to do the activation over wifi.
when i press enter type reboot and press enter nothing happens.
every time i downgrade to rc29 everything goes smoothly, until its time to reset it after its complete. I restart it and it always get stuck at the screen with the andriod and it says andriod beside it flashing from time to time.
the only way around this is to next install cupcake which brings me back to the activations screen. but i still cant reboot by typing in reboot
its not taking any commands so i cant never get adb to work.
from my searches I'm the only that has this problem right after downgrading to rc29
any info/ help would be greatly appreciated
Do you mean the screen that says "touch the android to continue"? You might want to do what it says.
Oh, and you might want to also do what this FORUM says... post your questions in the QUESTIONS section.
It appears to me that there is nothing wrong except that you aren't willing to follow the instructions.

I only found one other person that was having this problem after loading dreaing.nbh and no solution was posted other than he might need to upgrade to rc33

You mean you found one other person who couldn't follow directions. You won't get anywhere by sassing lbcoder.
Start by posting the question in the right subforum, then follow the directions on the CM wiki.
Ive tried everything. I followed the directions to the T. Its not rocket science. I done everything over 10 times and still hangs at the flashing andriod boot screen. Never goes to the activation screen. I can do the <enter>reboot<enter> and that works. also was able to sucessfully connect to adb for the first. when i tried it at this screen. i get an error when trying to pull up the wifi settings cause my phone itsnt functioning properly.
anybody???
Maybe try something else like RC7. When I was rooting my G1 I followed a tutorial which was recommending RC7 and RC29 to do telnet stuff. RC7 wasn't working for me so I tried RC29 and everything was OK. Maybe it's the same for you, but in reversed order .
i well try it asap. the only reason i havent tried it yet cause im in the u.s. i didnt think i could use it.
got a not allowed. its funny cause when i first tried it i think the image was messed up. it said not found or something. try it a couple times didnt work stopped and let it power up normal and it worked. i was excited. i was able to register it over wifi and everything.. turned it off swiped sim cards ect. then it just got stuck back on the flashing andriod screen. wtf? so im starting all over again it hangs again at that screen as usual
i would try flashing RC33 first...
I would try posting this in the proper forum. It seems to me you asked a question, however you posted in the Android Development forum, see where I'm going with this?
Hello,
I had a problem with my Motorola Xoom WiFi.
My girlfriend was playing with my tablet and couldn't guess my login pattern.
Unfortunately sign in via Google account did not worked and WiFi network was turned off, in Airplane mode!!
So I am looking for way how to unlock it without root access>> is that possible ?
How often did she try? You should be able to wait a little while and then enter the correct pattern. There's also a way to unlock the xoom without knowing the pattern or google account, but no one on this forum is gonna help you with that ('cause we can't be sure that it really is your xoom;-) )
So just try to wait a little while until you can enter the pattern again or try to reboot, maybe the pattern will appear again after that...

I can control volume by it's button(and that the only thing that could change a thing in that screen), but is there any way to turn on wifi with or without button !?!?!?!
Do you have adb debugging enabled? I think you can change the wifi state in adb shell....

I really just can't do hard reset, with no way of extraction for my data (it's 20g out of32)!
So >> Is there any new idea please !
Heeeeeeelp~!
You may need to fully wipe it.. you'll lose your data. This can be done through a connected PC.
Revert to the out-of-box state (stock/locked). There are many threads on this.
Or follow instructions here (you may need to register): MotoDev
Load up MZ604 Wifi (HWI69) - and go back through setup.
Once you enter your Google account - it will download your software and reload your wifi settings, etc.. Then let it go through the various OTA updates through ICS 404.
You'll have to redo your screens - but you'll get back a working Xoom.
A few months ago while I was visiting family my cousin decided to lock me out of my phone by putting in the wrong pattern 30 times. I was then asked to provide my Gmail account and password to unlock it. However, when I input my Gmail account and password it says "Invalid username or password". I wasn't able to do much searching there since their internet was very unstable and rarely worked, so now that I'm back I checked and the Gmail account and password that I entered are correct, it just happens to not work on my phone. My WiFi and data off too, so that could be the reason why it's not verifying it.
When I turn off my phone and turn it back on while pressing the volume up button it does say that it's on fastboot mode and that it's unlocked. Not sure if there's any other information that I can provide that will be helpful. I really want to access my phone again without having to factory reset it since I've a lot of pictures that I haven't saved and I don't want to lose all my contacts again (not sure when I last backed up my phone or if I have ever backed it up).
Try this.

Thank you for the link. I tried both methods posted on there but it didn't work. when I typed adb shell it would say device not found. I believe my USB debugging is turned off.
If you have a custom recovery then you can try the same commands.
If you have an unlocked bootloader, then flash a custom recovery and give it a go.

I went into bootloader mode and selected recovery.. but that didn't do much. it just showed an android with a red triangle and an exclamation mark inside of it. Then it went back to asking for a gmail account and password.
I'm trying to flash a custom recovery but its still not working. I was using this site for guidance http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-s/general/nexus-s-guide-unlock-bootloader-root-t2034264 but in the "early necessary requirements" it says that USB debugging should be enabled.. which it isn't for me.
I tried using all 3 commands but all I get is "waiting for device" and nothing happens after that.
Hi everyone,
I am trying to help a buddy out and getting his phone working. The phone is not rooted in any way shape or form.
Here are my issues
The phone will not boot into the stock rom. I can get it into the bootloader. Which I went to htcdev. To unlock the bootloader. Followed the steps and was able to get the phone screen to show unlock bootloader. But when I hit yes it reboots and stays on the white htc screen. Then it will keep rebooting. When I go back into bootloader. It still shows the bootloader as being locked? Any suggestions. I haven't flashed anything in about 3 years. But only Samsung things.
This is my set up
Your best bet is to try latest RUU: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-sv-boost/news/
I tryed that as well. Thinking it is kinda like Odin for samsungs. But as soon as it try to reboot into bootloader. It stays on the white htc screen
The RUU was running completely through and it still not booting?
I will take a picture of the screen. It does not go all the way through. Also I tryed the Ota. Zip. And changed it to PL80IMG and placed it in my SD card. It looked as if it went through and it told me to reboot. But still nothing.
This is what's happening.
Forget the OTA. It won't solve anything for you.
I also think, your bootloader must be locked to run the RUU.
And i think it is your only chance to get the phone back running, because there is no stock rom or backup for boost (as far as i know).
I am OK with rooting it. But in order for me to do it I have to get the bootloader to unlock which I can't seem to do. It does all the motions to unlock. Until the phone reboots
What i have found in this few minutes, Error 171 should be a driver issue.
So, you should make sure that the correct drivers are running (HTC Sync). Maybe another PC could be also a good try.
And you can't root a phone which is not booting into OS. You need a OS.
Is there different drivers I could try besides tc sync. I have tried both computers that I have one has windows 8. The other has windows vista.both have htc sync on them. Also tried a different cable.
If I type in cmd fast boot devices it shows my device being connected. The error shows up while it is waiting for the boot loader to reconnect
Latest should be this.
I will give it a try thank you for helping me. I'm banging my head against the wall for 2 days trying to figure out why nothing is working on this.
Its really kinda strange, that bootloader should belocked again after reboot.
But your focus must be the RUU.

Yea, my main goal is to get it to boot up. I was hoping it was an easy fix. Like with the Samsung epic I had. Just slap it in with odin and boom. after I couldn't get the RUU to work I figured I would try to root it. but since I can't even get the bootloader to unlock. I am stuck and that's the biggest reason I posted. normally I wouldn't I try to read other post and/or youtube it to find someone with a similar problem.
Quick question. When I go into the RUU can/should be in fastboot?
Yes, you should be in fastboot (USB) mode.
Ok so I downloaded the drivers you recommend. It was different then the ones I had. I also downloaded the RUU from the htc site as well just in case. Will try when I get back home. Thanks again.
So here is what I have. I downloaded driver v4.11.0.001. And installed. Downloaded ruu k2_cl_jb_45_s_sprint_wwe_boost_3.05.653.4......
I went into cmd and type fastboot devices. My device showed up. Ran the ruu. Samething happened. The ruu stops because when the phone reboots. It doesn't reboot to the bootloader.
Also I tried in cmd to get the phone to reboot to bootloader with no luck. Is there any thing else I can try?
So here is a string of steps I've already been through in trying to save my bricked Nexus 6: [Can't post outside link yet...]
Basically I got the 'your phone is corrupt' message from google and it kept forcibly shutting down. It would not boot up so someone suggested I side load a rescue OTA. At this point recovery existed and I went through all the steps and had it installing, only to fail mid-way through (~52%) and give me a 'read error' on my command prompt. I started the whole process over again just fine and it got to 73% before 'read error' failing again. I thought no big deal, I'll just keep doing this until it gets to 100%. Nope, recovery is gone. I cannot get there anymore. I start into Fastboot mode and scroll to recovery and hit power and it just goes to a new Fastboot screen and keeps flashing every time I try to select it. The Bootloader logs give me a 'failed to validate boot image: ret=-1' message and says 'Boot up failed.'
I can't find a single guide online that doesn't require recovery mode to work. At this point I don't care about my data and just want to get this phone working again before I throw in the towel and pay Motorola $175 for a refurb. I'm just barely over a year too. The Nexus 'expert' gave up and blamed the memory and maybe he is right but I wanted to run this by you guys first. This phone was completely stock and unrooted.
The only reason why I feel there is still a chance is because when I connect USB my computer reads it as an Android Device in Device Manager with 'Android Bootloader Interface' as a sub device. If the computer can read it, isn't there a chance that some kind of software exists that can forcibly load a new bootloader onto this phone without recovery? I'm 'competent' with computers and android phones but I haven't rooted or done any custom stuff in years so I'm at a loss for what's out there.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me, even if it's to tell me I'm SOL.
Ok so far I have tried to load a custom recovery but that requires an unlocked bootloader. Then I tried using a toolkit to flash stock as a soft-bricked device but that also requires an unlocked bootloader and I can't unlock the damn bootloader. You know, I thought I was just playing it safe by leaving this phone as-is instead of playing around with it but it looks like I screwed myself by doing so.
