Hi guys
Desire S.
Unrooted, no custom recovery, basically everything default.
HBoot 2.00.0002
.
To root, i need the 0.98 version.
Using HTCdev.com, i tried to unlock, but at step 5, where i should type fastboot oem get_identifier_token, the phone doesnt come up at all, and cmd just continues to wait for device.
Before you ask, I HAVE (i hope) followed all steps.
This includes updating drivers manually, using htc sync (latest and older versions), swapping usb port and cable, reunzipping adb and fastboot material from other sources, and reading for a decent number of hours throughout xda and other external forums and guides.
But there is still no success.
Anyone help please? I don't just want fast, "get it working for me" type answers, but actually want to know why it refuses to greet me!
Cheers
BTW, i'm on a windows 8.1 laptop, and have updated the relevant drivers, still to no avail.

your phone must be in FASTBOOT bootloader mode..not in the HOME of your ROM..
if you don't wan to turn off your phone first and pressing volume down + power to go to bootloader..then you can using a adb command on cmd while your phone is still in the HOME of your ROM.. type "adb reboot bootloader" then select "FASTBOOT" now you can type "fastboot oem get_identifier_token"
don't forget to disabled Fast boot mode and enable USB Debuging first from the system settings and just connect your phone to pc as charge mode..
hope this help..
Sorry mate. Tried that before your post though.
However the person for whom I was doing this no longer needs it doing, and plans for a newer device, so I no longer have this device available. Thus, i thanked you, since it was a cue for me to mention that.
Cheers.

Hi Guys, since monday im the owner of a htc one s. I unlocked the booloader and flashed the team win recovery. Then I flashed the TrickDroid Custom Rom, because I thought i would have a nice battery life like it was told in the title. But the fact is that my One S looses extremly much battery in standby-mode and i dont know why. So i would flash a RUU. But I couldnt do this. Like in some Threads i flashed the Stock-Recovery and the I relocked the bootloader. Now I tried to start my phone to flash the RUU but i coulndt, the One S wasnt booting. Then I tried to flash the Recovery over the Bootloader and ive got the failure-code 171 (ruu cant find a fastboot device -> usb). But i realy want to go back to stock. Can you help me?
iZodiac
never done an ruu, so can't help much there other than what is already posted
assuming you are up on your adb/fastboot stuff, try reinstalling the htc drivers. then open command window, cd to fastboot.exe folder, usually in something like tools or platform-tools and at command prompt type fastboot devices and see if phone is recognized.
And thats the Point, if I install Android SDK my CMD Console says me, that I cant open this and then my cmd isnt available anymore on my pc. i tried this 2 times and every time I needed to restore my pc to a earlier time..
not sure
can you reinstall htc sync or try new usb or different pc port
you need the fastboot.exe and adb.exe and 2 windll files in your tools folder. If they are missing--might be issue
did you check and see on phone if usb debugging is checked under Settings/Development and fastboot is unchecked under Settings/Power
oh, if you haven't and get to a point you can, get a nandroid. i know you can't bu sdcard to pc--but, first chance you get, do it
Thanks first for your Support, 2nd
Can you give me a link of the (if available) latest RUU-Nandroid? Would be great if you'll find something
Hello xda,
a friend of mine just gave me his HTC Sensation because it isnt running quite a while. The problem is that i haven't had a HTC device ever and I don't really know what to do and what information you need to help me so I'd be happy if u just tell me what information you need and I will try to get them for you.
The Information I got so far is:
- if I want to boot it, it stays at the HTC Logo
- CWM starts with some errors but you can't perform a wipe (just turns off)
- Bootloader starts as well but you can't perform wipe either, nor flash new CWM
- If i connect it with the computer while in fastboot it changes to "fastboot usb" but adb cannot find the device, though i installed first the drivers, lateron htc sync. Windows just calls it "myhtc"
bootloader says:
"PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT . 1.27.1100

OpenADSP-v02.6.0.2226.00.0131

So what should I try to do or what information will you need.

Hi,
Go HERE
Install 4 EXT recovery,using one of the 3 methods available.(probably third)
Then,try to install ARHD ROM.(same guide)
No need to change the firmware.
So I just tried to flash 4 EXT Recovery but it doesn't work..
It finds the zip, ask me whether i want to start the update, i press vol up and "Update is in progres.." appears but nothing more, I'm waiting since 5 minutes and will probably have to power off the phone now.. the same happened when i tried to install cwm so theres something wrong with the bootloader?
What can I do now?

Hi,
Maybe you should run a RUU.
Look HERE
I also thought about this but as I said adb doesn't find the device.
Since I never ran a RUU, can I still flash or do I have to get adb to run with the device.
Anyway, I cannot read out the CID of the device so if it is possible, which RUU should I flash?
Thanks for your help

Hi,
Try installing these windows 7 & 8 drivers (assuming you have a windows 7 or 8 machine)
Reboot your PC and see if your phone is recognized in ADB.
You are s-off,so you do not have to match it 100%
Just get a RUU that is close to your region or carrier.
If you get the wrong one,it is not a problem.
It will just give you an error.
Then,just try another.
)
Well I just installed those drivers but same result as before..
Windows says "MyHTC" and after i write "adb devices" into the cmd window it says "daemon not running. starting it on port 5037. daemon started succesfully. List of devices attached." and the next time i write adb devices it just says "List of devices attached".
Bootloader still says Fastboot USB.
So maybe there's something wrong with my adb?
Well can i flash RUU without adb finding my device or cant I?

Hi,
Not sure what is happening with your ADB.
Look HERE for help.
In order to run a RUU ,you need to put the bootloader into fastboot,and plug in the USB.
It should show what yours is showing.
So, it should work.
After "List of devices attached" there is no device shown, I didn't leave anything adb shows, so this is still right? Usually it always shows my device ^^
So my adb is probably not running right or it is about my phone
So my next step should be adb showing my device and therefore reinstall android sdk, java, stuff until it might show the phone
or just do something with the phone?
I still think that i cannot run a ruu without any device shown? Didnt really get an answer on this question I guess or I didnt realize it

Hi,
Just run the RUU.
It will only show error if it does not work.
No big deal,and no damage done.
Just try another one.
if you enable usb debugging might help too
Well.. I just started "RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.50.401.1_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_223042_signed" and everything went fine until installation, no errors at all. Now the installer is stuck at "restarting bootloader" (or something equal, the installation is german) and the phone didnt do anything at all. It's now 15 minutes since the installation started so I probably will try another one but isn't it weird that ther is no error at all?
What should I do if the next RUU does exactly the same?
*edit:
just seeing page 2. How should I enable usb debugging without booting the phone?
*edit2:
second RUU: Same thing, no error but it didnt go further then "Restarting bootloader".
What to do now?
Any further Ideas what I could try?

Hi,
Try running a RUU with the same radio (11.22) that you have installed.
You will not damage the phone.
It is not always an exact science with RUU.
Sometimes it is just trial and error.
So it is often that there is no error at all?
I just thought flashing wrong RUU will cause an error and not stopping at restarting bootloader. And anyway the bootloader seems pretty broken since it is not flashing anything at all ^^
Still i gonna try it

Hi,
Probably ,the only thing that will fix your problem is a RUU.
So,keep trying different ones until it works.
I finally managed to find the phone via adb! I think that's a great step.
The biggest problem is that I lose any contact to the phone when i reboot it into bootloader.
I can just boot the phone into recovery and use any other adb function but as soon as I boot it into bootloader I can't do anything anymore.
That's why I cannot use any fastboot commands to flash a zip, neither run a RUU completely i guess.
So I think that i need any rom to either flash via recovery or just via PC not using fastboot/bootloader at all.
Are there any possibilities for me now?

Hi,
Plug your phone into the PC.
Go to device manager,and where it says MyHTC,right click and update driver.
Browse to the windows 7 & 8 drivers I gave you earlier.
Update,unplug phone ,and reboot PC.
Get a RUU that shows 3.32 or 3.33 in the title,and matches your region
Pull your battery.
Put it back in,and hold volume down and power button together.
Scroll to fastboot.
Plug in usb and run RUU from the PC
Hi there,
I'm tearing my hair out here. I have an HTC sensation which I inherited off my girlfriend. I tried to update it OTA and it says something like "variant system version htc" etc. I thought oh maybe somehow the bootloader has been tampered with. I previously had a rooted HTC desire for a couple years. I thought oh I'll just root this as well. I've tried on two occassions over 6+ hours to unlock this sensation via HTC Dev and it just doesn't work. I download sdk and put fastboot and adb in a folder. Connect the phone with USB and go into terminal and type cd and drag the folder in to make sure location is right. Then type ./fastboot oem get_identifier_token and it has either said "permission denied" or most commonly "waiting for device". So after shedding tears of rage, I gave up on that route. I thought instead ok lets see if I can go via OTA. So I called HTC and they rain my IMEI and apparently this phone is French (I'm in Australia) and thats why the OTA updates aren't working. He recommended I call the French HTC support and see what they can do. Funny thing is, I don't speak French.
Before I throw this phone off the highest place I can, is there any way I can get this OTA French update online off someone or a download website?
Model number: HTC sensation z710e
Thanks in advance for any helpful comments. I've done lots of reading and seem to be going in circles. From what I've read there doesn't appear to be a one click root app for the Sensation as existed for my HTC desire.
:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
you can easily unlock the device !!!
i think you are missing few points here
1. uncheck fastboot in settings -> power/battery
2. also enable "usb debugging" in settings ->developer options
3.then once you connect the phone from bootloader to the pc
( to go to bootloader ..power off phone ..remove battery , reinsert it ..then hold power + volume down buttons together until you get the bootloader screen a few seconds ))
4. if the connection is proper and you have proper drivers installed the phone says "FASTBOOT USB"
if the phone is saying :HBOOT" press power button once then it should say "FASTBOOT USB"
if the phone is just saying "FASTBOOT" that means connection is not proper or drivers are not installed
for proper connection : you can only use usb 2.0 ports ..usb 3.0 port and usb hubs dont work properly ..also if using pc connect to back usb ports
for proper drivers: you need to have HTC sync installed ..or if you have windows 7/8 32 bit install these drivers ..if you have windows 7/8 64 bit install these drivers (NOTE: if you plan to use these drivers .uninstall every HTC related software from control panel then reboot and install these ..and dont install HTC sync any more)
5. to check proper connection
type this command from your adb/fastboot folder
fastboot devices (it should list your device )
6. then continue with the rest of process
success
Thanks for your reply.
I have good news and bad news.
The good news is I have S-OFF and rooted my phone.
The bad news is that both JB roms I have tried I am unable to get passed choosing my language after the phone has started. I select any language (say english US) and it just freezes and then after 10 seconds restarts. This is with the CM 10.1 and AOSP 4.2.2 roms from development section. When installing these roms I make a nand backup, then wiped data and cache as well as dalvik cache. Then install the rom and JBapps. Any ideas on what to try to fix this? For now I have reverted to my backup.
Onto how I unlocked and rooted.
I was consistently getting an error in terminal when typing ./fastboot oem get_identifier_token
It would say .... ERROR
After a lot of googling I discovered that I was most likely getting that error because my HBOOT was too old for the HTCDEV method.
So I tried the revolutionary method which worked perfectly. Than installed clockwork recovery, gained root (did a dance for joy) and now here I am very close to JB goodness just need to figure out why it keeps on rebooting.
Any help is appreciated. :laugh:

You've done soff via revolutionary means you've got 1.17 firmware.. For ics and jellybeans you need 3.32/3.33 firmware.. Grab the latest firmware from kohr-ah firmware thread in sensation development section and flash it.. Then flash any ics/jb rom

Hello guys, long story short.. a little while ago I tried upgrading my ROM to 4.4.4 and found out that i have to turn S-off and install the RUU 3.18 i think it was. Upon doing this I came to find out that my phone isn't being listed when I type adb devices. I have debugging mode on and install the latest HTC drivers and uninstalled HTC sync, but yet it wont list my device.
I did some research and found out it could be the current rom I have installed causing it not being listed and that I may have to use another ROM to get windows to see my phone. But I dont think I can flash another rom because I cant get into TWRP now. I can get in bootloader but now recovery doesnt work and i cant get into TWRP anymore,I think I also have to update Hboot too.
My question is how do I go about getting my phone listed in adb and how can install twrp again.. Its been soo long since I did this I may need some help. If i can get ADB to list my phone I should be able to do the upgrading myself.
I'm taking a break atm as this is giving me a huge headache. I know Its not hard to flash if you have ADB working. Or TWRP but I dont have either of them. Can anyone shed some light for me please..
This is whats on my bootloader page
EVITA PVT SHIP S-ON RL

Thx for reading.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
So to make sure I understand your situation:
1. You CAN boot into your rom
2. You CANNOT boot into your Recovery (I'm assuming bootloop)
3. You CANNOT see your device in adb OR fastboot (please confirm)
So here's the best case scenario. You are NOT running Windows 8.1 and you can see your device in fastboot while in the bootloader. In this case, S-OFF again and flash recovery as usual. If your ARE running Win 8.1 .... well we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
To debug your adb problem plug your phone into your computer. Does your phone respond in any way? Do you see the device show up on your computer for file transfer? If any of these things is true, rejoice! For there is hope! This is just for assurance, but you do have developer settings turned on and adb enabled right? Have you tried other usb ports? I forget if there is authentication in 4.2.2 but if there is, did you add you trust your computer? Try revoking all trusted computers and try again. Have you tried the newest version of ADB? Have you tried a different cord? If you have tried ALL of these, open up device manager. This can be done by simply typing into the search in start on both Win7/8. Now look at the top of the list. Do you see anything like ADB Interface or Android Device? If not, do you see any unrecognized devices or any device with an exclamation mark under Other Devices or Universal Serial Bus Controller? If any of these is true, right click the device and select properties. It'll be best to post a screen shot at this point. But if you're an intrepid risk seeker, go to the driver tab and hit uninstall. Next unplug your device, wait a few moments and plug it back in. You should see a driver installation progress. I've also attached the generic Google drivers that I know for sure works should you need it. Now try adb again and hopefully your device shows up:highfive:
If all is wrong with the world, and you do not see anything when you connect your phone, try on different computer with a different cord.
Hi all,
My HTC One Mini crashed one month after warranty (Boo!). I can get to the FASTBOOT and BOOTLOADER screen and select options. However, the Factory reset and recovery just cause a vibration and get be back to FASTBOOT menu. The phone is *** LOCKED ***.
After a few false starts on linux and mac machines, I've installed WinDroid Toolkit v3.1 on Windows 7. I have gotten the Token ID and used it to get an Unlock_code.bin via email from the HTC developers website (Cannot link as newb). However, when I follow the instructions in WinDroid it recommends that newer devices require "Enable OEM Unlock" to be set:
I cannot do this now. I continue but when it says a menu will appear on the phone, the menu does not and the phone remains in *** LOCKED *** state. I tried continuing with step 2 "Flashing a TWRP" but it does nothing.
TL;DR Am I screwed with having previously unlocked OEM on my HTC One Mini, now that it is soft-bricked?
I'm not that good at this stuff, but managed to get mine unlocked and a recovery on it via this link
sadly mine still has a problem in that it's now stuck in a boot loop, so don't use Oneclickroot as I did in my post here
hopefully you will get yours to work ok, but when you get to instruction 17 you may find that HTC website is quite fussy with the code you copy/paste
when you copy the Identifier block into Notepad or whatever, ensure you don't get any leading blank spaces before you submit it to HTC.
this excerpt from mine had blank spaces where I have inserted red X's, but it worked with them removed and HTC then emailed me the Unlock_code.bin file

sorry,
lost the plot on my first reply and forget about the OEM unlock bit ...
to get that OEM unlock bit you would normally
first Enable Developer Modeon your phone by Launching the Settings Application -
Scroll Down and Tap on About Phone(or About Device) - Locate the Build Number Section - Tap on the Build Number Option 7 Times -
Go Back to the Main Settings Page - Scroll Down and Tap on Developer Options and it's found there
but given that you are in is bad a place as me in that we cannot get a bootup, I'm afraid I can't offer any more info,
but it's worth knowing anyway in case you do get booted up
Hi, i have the same issue, but a little different.
My phone was in a box for like 2 months, and then i decide to turn it on again, and i faced the same problem as the OP, but my One Mini is UNLOCKED, and i can't lock it again because i get an error in ADB. I try to enter on recovery (and flashed three differents recoveries without sucess), and reboot in bootloader, then try to factory reset, and reboot bootloader again. It don't do anything, only turn on when i plug the usb and enter in bootloader but no more than that. i've try to flash a RUU too, but it give me the error 171. i tried too the method with the rubber band pressing the power button to cause a reboot loop and get enough charge to launch the system but nothing, i don't see any results. I'm one step closer to give up, please help, i tried everything and nothing has worked for me. If need more information don't doubt on asking me. I really appreciate any help you can provide.
I'll try mate ... but perhaps you are asking for help from the wrong guy! - firstly I have to say mine is still in a very bad place! -
I managed to get a permanent TWRP on it, installed a lovely rom named InsertCoin on it, rebooted, and all seemed fine, but then the battery drained rapidly and it would not charge - that issue is ongoing and I'm spending ages on it just now..
Firstly can you confirm that you can enter Bootloader and select Fastboot, and that your phone is then recognised by your PC?
ie: let me know what happens when you press power and vol down together, select fasboot, goto PC, run ADB, cable phone to PC,
then issue the command ADB devices
can you also upload a photo of your bootloader screen

i don't need to press vol down and power together, the phone enter in bootloader once you plug the usb cable. it do that alone.
This is what i get
C:\adb>adb devices
List of devices attached
C:\adb>
the phone is recognized by HTC Sync manager but i can't see it in ADB.
a few things things jump out at me ...
1. from your photo the screen is shattered! - even though I don't like being beaten by phones I would scrap it
the repair would cost more than you can get one from ebay for - about £40.00
2. "abd devices" should return you something like ... "List of devices attached sh3d7h3dj631f6a7" - when it doesn't it show a device number it's usually your drivers
3. you may think that's not it since you say that it is recognised by HTC Sync when on your PC, but I had read that HTC sync is unreliable and that the drivers are not the best
the one's I used were HTC-Mobile-USB Driver-v4.17.0.001.exe but I can't remember where I got them and will upload them later today and send you a link.
(also, it pays to plug your usb cable into a rear port on your PC when doing this kind of work as front are not as reliable)
4. your Hboot is shown as 2.22 -this also can be a problem for TWRP see this link
5. the download link he has is broken, so get any TWRP above 2.7 from their website here

the repair would cost more than you can get one from ebay for - about £40.00

2. "abd devices" should return you something like ... "List of devices attached sh3d7h3dj631f6a7" - when it doesn't it show a device number it's usually your drivers
3. you may think that's not it since you say that it is recognised by HTC Sync when on your PC, but I had read that HTC sync is unreliable and that the drivers are not the best
the one's I used were HTC-Mobile-USB Driver-v4.17.0.001.exe but I can't remember where I got them and will upload them later today and send you a link.
(also, it pays to plug your usb cable into a rear port on your PC when doing this kind of work as front are not as reliable)
4. your Hboot is shown as 2.22 -this also can be a problem for TWRP see this link
5. the download link he has is broken, so get any TWRP above 2.7 from their website here

2. I will leave you down here exactly what i get when i type "adb devices" (with an attached image)
3. i have installed the latest HTC drivers, and i tried connecting my phone to front an rear usb ports, both of them. No results.
4. Down here i'll leave you an attached image of what i get when i try to install a recovery by typing "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (i changed the name to recovery.img of course) and the phone seems installing the recovery in fastboot but it gave me that error in adb and when i try to enter in recovery it reboots on bootloader.
your first image does not 'see' your device mate, so there is no point in trying a flash of anything
until you get a response from "adb devices" that shows a device number you have no chance of getting anywhere!
I am quite certain that the problem MUST be with your drivers
my advice would be to uninstall the HTC Sync and clean out any drivers on your PC and to install the drivers and flash the TWRP I mentioned earlier
sorry I didn't upload earlier as I've been very busy indeed - they are now on my Google Drive ... links here .... and here

Hello guys, I've been following this thread and I'm having same issue. Adb does not sees my phone.
Fastboot does, but when I run ruu , it disconnects and give error 171
Tried usb 2 instead of 3.nothing.
I also think it's the drivers, but I can't seem to find the correct one for this phone. Any help is appreciated
my phone only starts in bootloader it have s-on and i cant use the toolkit cause usb debugging isnt active
adb writes waiting for device
can anyone help me?
