Hi Mate. Please understand that because you have an OEM device (HTC), the only way to unlock your phone is by following the instructions given by htcdev.com. Check and double check that you are following the instructions correctly (that's where people usually make mistakes - myself included).

I have never Cid unlocked. I just use the patched maupgrade_noid.exe to flash as it bypases the CID check.
Also my G4 had the latest bootloader (2.01) in when I got it.
Be careful when changing the bootloader as if you get it wrong you have a very expensive paperwieght.

The link provided to you has big massive blue lettering saying:
"C. Windows Phone 7 ROM Flashing Instructions"
With steps 1 to 9.
And if you're going to talk like that to someone who was trying to help you, you won't get very far at all
edit: And if you still don't know what to do, then you shouldn't be flashing any ROMs at all because you can break your phone.

Do you knw how to back it up first ,i want to return it if something goes wrong .
Which rom i have to use ? The phone came from USA and is from T-mobile

With any flashing/unlocking of a mobile phone there are risks involved... if you are not prepared to accept those risks, keep your phone as is and move on.
No one here is going to hold your hand and do a step-by-step (plenty of FAQ's already out here), you have already plenty of information in our forums and in the web to be able to do this yourself, and for more specific HD7 questions, start visiting the appropriate forum.
G'luck.

You cannot back up your phone using this method. Zune will take a backup when you upgraded to 7390, but I'm not sure you can use this when you flash a new ROM.
Since you are TMOUS & reading the instructions from the post by ansar, you would need both of these:
1. RUU_Schubert_TMOUS_1.20.531.01_Radio_5.51.09.11a_2 2.31.50.09U_by_ansar
2. RUU_Schubert_TMOUS_1.54.531.02_Radio_5.51.09.29a_2 2.32.50.10U_by_ansar
Again, make sure you read the instructions carefully & search through that thread for any issues because there is always potential to break your device.
ok thank you ,just one more time :

Maybe they're just two different versions. They look to be from the file size. I would just pick the second one. But you're best asking that question in the thread above because I don't have a HD7 and I'm just guessing
mate thank you very much ,i installed successfully the 7004 ,but i cant still get it to work ,it just says that cant comuicate with the phone ,and i do every step as described ... should i try the other ROM ?
Thank again for helping me i hope we can fix this

Can't communicate with phone usually indicates a connection/driver error. Make sure you only connect your USB when in bootloader mode. You may need to disable driver signature enforcement if you use Windows 7:
http://www.thegeekprofessor.com/tip...-off-driver-signing-enforcement-in-windows-7/
Failing that, try a different USB port & make sure the device shows up in device manager. Also, make sure your device is recognised by Zune.
You could try the other ROM too, but it most likely would show the same error.
thank you i have unlocked it now
uploaded many apps and i am very happy .....
Good luck to everyone

Can't run RUU due to upgraded ROM
Hi,
I'm having the same problem. My phone had a software update recently which upgraded the rom to 1.54.401.3 and now I can't use the RUU tool, as it requires 1.54.401.2.
Is there any way to downgrade back to 1.54.401.2 so we can use the RUU tool?

Thanks dude if i were near abt ur place i woulnt mind at all .... But i am stuck in bolton for a while
Sent from my HTC ChaCha A810e using XDA
no bother at all
finally i found the solution!
nobody need to downgrade, and you don't even need to download the RUU 1.54.401.3. just skip this step 1 of unlock and go directly to step 2,
i did it my phone now is unlocked and i rooted it!
but before you go to step 2 make sure to enable USB debugging. (From the Home screen, MENU > Settings > Applications > Development > Check USB debugging)
Connect your phone to the computer using the USB cable that came with your phone. Wait a moment for your computer to identify your phone, this may take a few minutes
Very nice marwanbaradii!
its working
Tnx that was the solutions i needed
Hi marwanbaradii . I need to know what step 2 is and how to go about it?
Thanks

If I'm not mistaken (and most likely I'm not), you can't downgrade a phone without locking the bootloader first. So you need to lock the bootloader and flash RUU - and you're not using the correct guide for it. You need to do some steps that aren't in the guide.

Correct, but that's after you change your misc version, which is in the guide. Locking the bootloader is part of the steps, so no worries there, RUU's are also there, I think there's one from his region so no problem. Take it from me, I started from S-ON, rooted (temp i think), boot unlocked and hboot 2.00.0002 and the guide is noob fail-safe, given you researched enough to know what you're doing, and you just do what it tells you. You'll do the deed right.
Sorry, I was replying to the OP, but you posted before me so it looks like I'm replying to you instead. I meant the guide he mentioned in his OP, not your guide.

I tried this, but the last step does not work with me, I can not bring the command line because cmd does not detect my phone when it is in bootloader, or maybe I'm wrong to maneuver?
Code:
then type in command prompt.

P.S: the bootloader is unlock with htcdev.com

What do you mean by "region": is the region where I live, or that or the phone was for its manufacture? if this is the second time how to recognize the region because I have not bought new?

Before starting with everything, turn on USB Debugging (settings>developer options) and turn off Fast boot (settings>Power) in your phone.
You installed HTC sync in your PC right? If not, first download and install HTC Sync (from here www(dot)htc(dot)com/sea/help/htc-desire-s/#download), you need the drivers from HTC sync, so your pc can recognize your phone.
Make sure you rebooted to bootloader. Then enter:
- fastboot oem lock >>> this is to "relocked" your phone so you can proceed to installation of the RUU.
First and foremost, is your phone branded? If yes, then choose the right RUU for you. If no, you can use the unbranded RUU. Or you can search the forum for your specific region, I think Europe RUU is ok. "Region" is your area, where you live and use your phone. Im from south east asia, so i used asia RUU. Also take note of Post #5 of the first guide, he has summarized everything and i believe he's in the same region as you. Read through everything before starting.

[Q] Problem with Unlocking Bootloader of HTC Sensation via HTC Dev site

Hello,
I'm trying to unlock my phone (HTC SENSATION) boot loader having ICS.. bootloader version 1.27.000 something like that..
I followed all the steps given there on HTC Dev site but stuck on the 8th step where we have to submit token code. The problem is, when I put the code in the box and press submit.. I get this error every-time..even though I have selected exactly the correct code..
We're sorry, but it appears your attempt to unlock the bootloader on this device has failed. This could be caused by several factors including simple errors in the entry of the unlock token, problems with your device, or a lack of manufacturer support for the unlocking process. Please see the specific error code listed below, and try again if necessary.
Error Code: 173.
Error Reason: Check Rule Fail with exception
