Hello everyone, you may have heard of my unlocking tool for windows. It unlocks HTC devices and i am slowly but surely adding support for new devices. The sensation happened to be next on the list. I will be adding it to the official GUI app once this is confermed, so for now it is a batch file that needs testing. If you dont trust me for any reason, just open up the zip and view whats inside the batch file, i have nothing to hide Please report back any errors, not just "it dont work" I will ask the mods to look at those types of posts.

TEST 1
unlock sim? Bootloader or else? Please provide more details
Bootloader without voiding the warranty (htc voids warranty apon unlock in countries that dont forbid it eg USA) original thread located here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576844
ok if unlock hboot 1.27 is very good news for sensation users but i can't help because i already have unlocked bootloader. Thanks for your work
in theory this will unlock any device in which the s-off method's root works. Jupno bear i think its called? I can change root methods, but the method inside is definitively solid enough to unlock with root.
Thanks for wanting to include the Sensation with your tool simonsimons34 we can always use good utilities to make unlocking and modding our devices easier. But just to let you know the Sensation already has two great tools. Here is kgs1992's Super Utitlity and the article featuring it just yesterday in the Portal. The Sensation also has the HTC Sensation 4G All-In-One Toolkit by hasoon2000 that is stickied in the Sensation Android development forum.
This does something the others cant :/ which is why i included it. This works for any hboot revision and any rom as long as you have root (or can get it with the method i icluded -thanks jcase for finding it) This Unlocks the phone WITHOUT the need to contact htcdev and submit a token. Sure it doesnt S-off or anything, but for new phones or phones which there are no ways to install roms except by contacting HTCDEV.com and voiding your warranty, this is a life saver. Just check out what it does before you say its already been done please. I mean no offence to you, just however am annoyed you posted saying its been done before you looked into what it does

Sorry man I did not mean to offend. I can not actually use your tool because I am already S-off with Revolutionary Hboot 1.17.1111. I downloaded your tool and yes this is awesome that your tool unlocks the bootloader. But did you actually look at the links I gave you? the Super Utitlity allows you to use Juopunutbear S-off without having to use HTC Dev Unlock first by utilizing the download from Unlimited.io (scroll to the bottom) wich is the website for the Juopunutbear S-off and it supports all Hboot versions, . So even though the Super Utility does not unlock the bootloader forsay, still the ability to not have to use HTC Dev has been done. But at the same time it has not been done. I am in no way trying to criticize you or your tool. What you have done is great and amazing work and most definitely has and deserves a place her. This tool will only make things easier for some users if not all. I just want to keep the facts staight is all.

It's an at&t phone, the at&t CID is blocked by htcdev so you need to get SuperCID before being able to unlock the bootloader. Click the Everything Evita link in my signature and bookmark that thread, it's a resource thread that contains everything you'll ever need. Once you're in that thread navigate to the root section and find the 3.18 root method, this is the only method that'll work with your current firmware. Follow the instructions in that thread and then you can unlock your bootloader.
Once you have an unlocked bootloader you can install TWRP recovery which will allow you to root your stock ROM or install custom ROMs. If you need instructions on this click the How-To Guide For Beginners link in my signature, it's a thread I put together detailing some basic operations. If you have any questions feel free to ask in my Noob Friendly Q&A + General Help thread.

You need to use the correct root method that corresponds to your firmware version in order to change your CID. Trying other methods you randomly Google around for is not going to work.
Use my Index thread, look under "ROOT" and find the method that matches your firmware number (3.18).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237
There is not one-click method that works for firmware 3.18. Trying methods that don't match your firmware number is a waste of time.
Also, when asking for help, you need to be absolutely specific as to what you have tried, and what you haven't (including the result such as error messages, etc). If you don't give us specifics, it makes it even harder for us to help you.
Hasoon2000's all-in-one toolkit should work on 3.18. But if this is the one you tried, you haven't told us what happens when you try to use it.
To make it easier, here's the link to the 3.18 root method:

You'll still want to bookmark the Everything Evita thread linked in my signature.

Thank you everybody
When I try the all in one kit gave the error of waiting for the device, updated the adv drivers and still dosent show the CID change
In htcdev give me the MID not allowed error
In most cases, all in one method, Jose method, motoXchopper method dosent seems to work what I'm going to try is to uninstall all the drivers for HTC one x and install again

What the heck is "Jose method"? Again, I think your are fumbling around with methods that aren't even intended for your device or firmware version.
Do you have a working adb environment? What is the response if you use the command:
adb devices

Come on, you of all people shouldn't be giving attitude to this guy telling him he hasn't searched enough. You've asked me multiple questions that could have been answered if you had searched for the answer, including how to unlock your bootloader, that's kinda like the pot calling the kettle black.
It's easy for you to say unlocking the bootloader is an easy process once you've done it. The fact is that it isn't that simple for someone who is unaware that there are different methods for different firmware versions.

Thank you for all the responses
The error that gives me still is the same mid not allowed
Still having problems, but someone told me that it is first to root and then change the CID to superCID 1111111 and then run a all in one program to unlock
Is it thruth?
You've been told quite a few times now that you can't unlock your bootloader until you have SuperCID. You need to use the 3.18 root method that I linked you to a few posts ago. Forget about the toolkits, just go to that thread and follow the instructions.

Ok I had the same issue several months ago. I have AT&t One x as well. I noticed I could unlock the bootloader and S-OFF when my phone was carrier unlocked. I used the roadrunner method I believe (it's been awhile). I am certain Timaaaa knows what he is saying, but if you can't find a solution, that may be your other answer as well. Worked for me.
Roadrunner? I don't think such a method exists for this device. You can't get s-off without root, you can't get root without an unlocked bootloader, you can get an unlocked bootloader without SuperCID, the only way to get SuperCID on his firmware is to use the 3.18 root method. Hence the reason that's been stated over and over again in this thread. It's the only solution. Carrier unlocking has absolutely nothing to do with the bootloader unlock / root process.

Thanks everybody for the help but I can't get superCID
The htc dosent let him write and all the exploits to change it ether dosent find the device or dosent allow to write the commands
I really don't know what is the problem
I already install new drivers uninstall the ones from Samsung that I had and nothing
Not even my phone has the option to put it in charge only it has various opcitions but none of them are charge only
What do you mean by "all the exploits"? Which exploits have you tried? Did you try the 3.18 root method I gave you the link to?

Probably is referring to the Rumrunner s-off method. And yes, carrier (SIM) unlock has nothing to do with bootloader unlock and/or s-off. Probably just a coincidence that that person was able to bootloader unlock after doing SIM unlock.
Thank you very much for the help now I have it everydone unlock, custom recovery, root and s-off.
I was having problems with faceoff to s-off but nothing big
I already have install viperxl with beastmode kernel

Hi everyone!
After trying out a custom rom, I have decided to flash the stock RUU on my HTC one M8Sw (China Unicom).
So far there is no issue with that but somehow the HTC seems to still be rooted as it prompts for approval after launching any app's first time.
My phone is currently S-OFF with bootloader relocked.
My target is to return my handheld with stock RUU and without root access.
Did I miss something?
Thanks in advance for the help

How do you manage to s-off your E8?
I had exactly the same question in mind - did you use sunshine or any alternate method?
I have used Sunshine and paid $25

You are S-OFF - no need for rumrunner, also rumrunner no longer is supported - check out sunshine www.theroot.ninja for future.
You can root and enable tethering or flash a ROM that supports it.
Here is my ROM if you wish to try.

Thank You very much I red a thread "How do I turn my VZW into a normal phone" and I learnt from you many things
I think i would go with the updated rom causei allready have marchmallow but don't know how to install it (I once installed RUU 5.1 then upgraded it through HTC Sync Manager VZW)
And about sunshine I think it needs money and i am not buying it
currently i am downloading "6.21.605.3_M8_WL_M60_SENSE70_VZW_MR_Full.zip.04qxwql" from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...-4-17-605-9-stock-resources-firmware-t3196906which i think is great

Yes it costs money and it's worth every penny, but as I've stated and you yourself.. you have S-OFF... unless you turn it to S-ON you don't ever have to worry about it. Once you get a new device on Verizon, if HTC, you will need to pay at least $25 for S-OFF using sunshine, there is no other way around it, or more right now with the HTC 10 as it's mailing your device to them so add shipping fees to the $25. I did it and am very happy.
Verizon devices don't have many choices are far as a free unlocked device, and these guys provide a great service for us, which I am very thankful for.
anyway. you flash a ROM in a custom recovery...
I would unlock your bootloader first.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708571
TWRP is the one to use.

do all this after running the RUU and booting up the ROM.

Thanks again andybones, I am sorry if I offended anyone I don't underestimate the effort the developers doing such a great app like sunshine I just don't have the penny
I not sure though which ROM to choose the one you mentioned that is up to date http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...t/rom-nusenseven-marshmallow-sense-7-t3266678 or that which I mentioned http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...-4-17-605-9-stock-resources-firmware-t3196906
I Also don't Know the steps RUU was so easy, I rename it to "0P6BIMG" put it in a sd card bootloader did it alone
And about unlocking the boot loader:
- to UNLOCK your bootloader,enter the following:
adb devices
adb shell
su (if needed to get a # prompt)
echo -ne "HTCU" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 bs=1 seek=33796
(i would very strongly recomend you copy/paste this)
exit
(exit a second time if you need to to get back to a normal > prompt)
adb reboot bootloader
verify you are now unlocked
It says Permission denied after echo
and su do nothing
I am so sorry I bothered you do much
Hi andybones ..
I did as you instructed (I was missing the RUU step) then I successfully had my bootloader unlocked, downloaded -Stock Rooted- Android 6.0 Marshmallow from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...-4-17-605-9-stock-resources-firmware-t3196906 then it freezed on VERIZON SCREEN .. restarted, factory reset, copyied it again, flash again all with no use ..
bootloader is ok and recovery too
Hi Andybones I followed your instructions and downloaded the NuSenSeveN - Marshmallow ROM and things went perfectly
Thank you very much, Much appreciated
