Help on the bootloader unlock
Sorry for this dumb question, but i have looked in the forum and i couldn't find a guide step by step about how to unlock the bootloader, so if anyone can help me and give a step by step tutorial for flashtool , i would be so greatful.
i couldn't understand the 3 or 4 steps in this post, those about using cmd or something like that.
My device is the Xperia M2 2305.

I have a question for smart people which is not missing on this forum - Is it possible to unlock the bootloader without debugging available (not possible on this mode).
Thank you in advance for all the answers.

[Q] HTC Sensation - Root etc

Hi,
I wanted to ask my question in the very helpful post by xl VipeR lx:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300&highlight=htcdev
But since I am new it would not let me and I received the following:
To ask Questions about developing your device, installing ROMs, software and themes you must go to the Q&A or General Forum.
Remember, your question has very likely been asked already, so please search before posting.
I searched around and was not able to find the answer. It may be a silly questions but it's a simple one so hopefully someone can assist.
I have a HTC Sensation and want to root it and put CM7 on. Do I need to unlock the bootloader with instructions from www.htcdev.com/bootloader/unlock-instructions before following VipeR's posting on rooting?
Thank you in advance.
yes you do
Thanks

My main reason for asking is I don't want HTC to necessarily know that I unlocked it. Some of the other forum posts have folks who killed their phone. Users recommend putting it back to stock so that HTC warranty will cover repairs.
If I use HTCDev then they would know that I unlocked it (warning mentioned when you register with them).
Any way around that?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

help with root (htc sensation)

I'm on stock ics I have unlocked my bootloader. I tried rooting it through all in one kit but my phone reboot and stay on the HTC logo screen intill I take the battery out and restart it but its not rooted still. I follow the guides accordingly but can't require root. After unlocking bootloader do I need to s off first then root please help I can even pay
wrong section, you n00b.
flash a rooted custom rom via recovery, and you have the root access. you don't need to root until you want to keep your stock rom
read more, follow guides and watch this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmvCpR45LKA
delete this thread.
thread shouldn't be here and there's tons of noob friendly guides to show you.
but to answer your question yes S-Off first

It is the wrong section because unlocking the phone or rooting it belongs in Q&A as you are asking a Question and need an Answer to get your problem solved.
It isn't a collaboration of people finding a way to make a s-on phone permanently s-off or unlocking a bootloader or giving it engineering capabilities for all of XDA. Therefore nothing is being developed.

as kohr-ah said it is in wrong section
and coming to the topic
as you are htc-dev unlocked
try my one click root tool..from my soff guide (link in my signature)
if you've unlocked your bootloader it should say (unlocked) at the top of the bootloader screen. you dont really need to s-off your phone just yet, if your phone has updated to ics it will already have the latest firmware already installed, so if i was you id install adb/fastboot then just use fastboot to flash your recovery instead of jumping to s-off you dont want to be messing that up
I think your in the wrong place if you have questions there's q&a part that you need to go

This is from the very first thread stating the rules for this forum
[MANDATORY] RULES FOR DEVELOPMENT Updated 21.03
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THIS FORUM IS ONLY FOR RELEASING AND DEVELOPING ROMS AND KERNELS.
SOME GUIDES REGARDING S-OFF AND FLASHING WILL BE ALLOWED BUT MOST WILL BE LINKED IN A REFERENCE THREAD
•Try to keep the development forum CLEAN! No offtopic posting and no questions.
•Use the report button in an offending post to let us mods know we need to take action. Dont take matters into your own hands!!!
•Sources need to be posted for all kernels!!!
•You need to use TAGS like [ROM] or [KERNEL] and so on as used in all dev forums throughout XDA
•Any disputes between developers should be handled by pm. No public posting in a dev thread regarding these matters
•Rom issues should be discussed within their respective threads
•Thread titles should ALWAYS coincide with ROMS ALREADY AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD!!! No advance notification of incoming ROM through thread title. A changelog for the yet unreleased Rom can be included in the OP or in another post CLEARLY MARKED as EXPECTED CHANGELOG
•Posting in the development section means automatic ACCEPTANCE of the above Rules
All posts that are NOT about ROM development, or development in general will be closed or deleted and posters that will choose to disregard the previous guidelines will be infracted.
As you can see only roms and kernels should be allowed in this thead. If you have a question it needs to go into the Q&A section or if it is about a particular rom that has been posted here it needs to go in that rom thread.
ok ok sorry
Ok I'm sorry if this post hurt your feelings because I posted in the wrong forum, I'm truly sorry ill take it down soon as I get home

@gregbradley ?
this is a development thread and not the place for general questions about the current root status. answer to your question is "no, not yet" unfortunately.

You people don't understand, there will NEVER be a root for locked bootloader on this device. Sorry :silly:
questions and answers like this are why this thread needs to be closed.

Moved to Q&A and closed.
Useless thread is useless, there is plenty of information on this. The simple answer is no, and we don't know if or when.

Hello everyone, sorry for my English! I want to report my problem, hoping someone can help me. My device is an HTC One S (Ville) processor S4 branded o2_de with Jelly Bean 4.1.1 and HBOOT 2:13. I followed this guide to set the SuperCid and make my device NO BRAND. After completing step 18 and gave the command "exit" twice, the phone you are no longer running and was detected by PC as QHSUSB_DLOAD with the yellow triangle, after some research and after installing the drivers htc (disabling signature verification Windows drivers) I managed to get the detection device on mode Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (as a COM port). After more research I think I understand what was my mistake, that is about to change the cid with the hex editor, I went to the line 210 (š ... O2 ___ 1,023,599) and instead change in O2___102 11111111 I changed š .. .O2__ in 11111111. Because now I no longer have the guarantee is there a way to make the unbrick device without bringing it in assistance being a Jelly Bean 4.1.1? If it can be a useful resource, before I change the file mmcblk0p4.bak I saved a copy on my PC.
*Many thanks in advance, I hope you help me to solve this mess.
