Hi All,
I was wondering if you could help me answer a question; when trying to unlock my bootloader with htcdev my htc desire s is not listed. Would it come under the original desire or all other supported models? Thanks
I believe its under other supported models, but I have had no luck getting a code today as when I put in my device string it just says site undergoing maintenance, so I can't go any further.
Pandollar: it is not your fault... same happened to me... but 3-4 days ago unlock worked... so may be tomorrow we will be lucky
OK thanks I will try this later on today
I have unlocked the bootloader so now how do I root?

How do I sim unlock? And what is the point of installing a new rom?
Dear XDA-developers and forum users,
I've got a phone, a branded Htc One S from T-Mobile. Yesterday, some websites spread the info that there was a new update for this phone; an update to android 4.1. I defintely wanted this update so I went through my phone to Settings > Info > updater. Despite, no update was available. So I began googling for this issue and there was somebody who said that I have to unlock my Htc One S.
So I began unlocking my phone. My unlock went succesfull (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583427). After the unlock I tried to check for the update again. Still no update available. After asking an old friend of mine who knows a lot of rooting and unlocking, he said I'd better lock the device again. So I changed my mind to re-lock my htc one s.
So my question is, how can I re-lock my device? I hope that somebody is able to help me out with this.
As you have noticed im a total noob at rooting and unlocking etc.
Thanks in advance,
Kevin Knops

Hi all,
Now we have root on locked devices (all creds to Morlok8k, I was wondering if an alternative to the Asus unlock tool is for grasp? I'm not a dev in any sense, but one of the unfortunate RMA-and-unable-to-unlock-bootloader guys.
So what do you guys think? Is it possible? I know Dan Rosenberg did the magic for a couple of Moto devices, and I would eternally grateful if I would be able to custom flash my TF300 which I love so dearly. :fingers-crossed:

Unlikely for JB boot loader and above. Same reason we cannot downgrade back to ICS boot loader.
Might be possible for ICS boot loaders, but not sure a dev is interested enough to put in the work.
Sorry, don't get your hopes up!
Though I like to be surprised too.

Yeah, I know... But we all know the magic that happens on XDA. "Not possible" is simply not part of their vocabulary :laugh: I guess we just have to wait and see! I'm sure all those Moto-users didnt' think they would be unlocked at all :victory:
I was pretty sure I wouldn't be rooting my tf300 any time soon and yet, here we are!
There is a thread in the development section where lots of very talented developers pulled apart the ASUS unlocker app to try to do what you propose. Unfortunately, they all came to the same conclusion. It's just not gonna happen. If someone like the guy who unlocked the Motorola bootloaders were to try, there would be a chance, but he's, like, one in a billion.
I would love to see this happen even though I'm already unlocked, just because. But I wouldn't hold my breath.

Unfortunately, I'm not in the US, so I'm out of luck. But there's good news too! I've actually am in touch with Dan Rosenberg at the moment :laugh:
He asked me through PM what was up with the Asus bootloader. I've send him the following e-mail:
Hey Dan,
Thanks for your reply concerning the Asus unlock bootloader tool. I'm very grateful to get your attention, since you are truely legendary within the scene (and I'm not even a dev myself ) The issue that they have is that all TF300's returning from RMA are not unlockable anymore. I've send mine in for 3 times to have this issue solved (first it returned without SN inserted, next time I couldn't do OTA update / unlock, same goes for it now).
There are numerous threads on XDA where people are complaining that they can't unlock. Any contact with Asus about this is clear: we are not supporting the unlock tool. What the unlock tool does is send the proc ID + SN to the servers of Asus (encrypted) and the unlock code will be returned. So far no one has been able to bypass this in any way (mostly because of the heavy encryption used, people say it "can't be done". But then again, I never thought I would be able to root my locked tablet until your fantastic tool came along.
Thanks for your time, I know there would be a lot of happy people out there to be able to custom rom their tablet.
I hope you can help us out. If there's anything I can do (eg: borrow you my locked tab), I'd be happy to. I know how frustrating this is (including Asus attitude), and if I in some way can help people out, I'd be happy to have my share in it.
Thanks again,
Kind regards
Fingers crossed that he might be up for the challenge! Indeed he's one in a billion.
Got a response from Dan:
I'd be happy to take a look at your bootloader, but I can't make any
promises, since it's entirely possible Asus has implemented the unlock
process in a cryptographically strong way that is impossible to bypass.
Would you be able to pull the boot partition from your device and send
it to me? Let me know if you need instructions on how to do this.
...I tried to use ROMdump to pull the boot partition but was unable to because of permissions. Is there anyone out there with slightly more experience to help me out here?
Already the fact that he's willing to have a look is a big step forward!
:fingers-crossed:
What's going on guys. I bought this unlocked att htc one m8 a couple of days ago and was hoping to switch the cid/mid to T-Mobile. However, while I did get the boot loader unlocked along with rooting it, sunshine keeps saying error and makes me exit. Can anyone help? I'm currently running an insertcoin rom could this possibly be the issue?
P.s. Ever since I flashed insertcoin, I haven't been able to flash any other roms. So if anyone could also help with that it would be a big help!
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Your best option here is to use the live support on the Sunshine site.
Thread closed, thanks.
Hello everyone,
I've run into a new Honor 9X Pro (weird circumstances ) and now I'm thinking about selling the device or using it as a little gift for my gf
I found several howtos to unlock the bootloader and intall e.g. TWRP, but are there any non EMUI custom ROMs around? In a blog post I found the info the custom ROM forums for Huawei and Honor devices online seem to be pretty dead...I thought because of the google ban, the custom ROM scene should be more a live than ever?
Any feedback appreciated!
Thanks
