Where the hell is step 11?

I just received my unlock code bin in the email and the site says to follow the instructions in the email. The link in the email simply links back to the first page of the unlocking process. It's an infinite loop!

HTCDEV.Com Worthless! Please help unlock BootLoader

Can someone please help me get my bootloader unlocked on my HTC Rezound? I have been trying for a week, and no luck. I have everything right. Tried it on Windows Vista and Mac OS X Lion, with Java and Android SDK loaded, and I am able to get the "Token" and I KNOW I am pasting the token in right, but HTCDEV.com will not accept the token. Error message says...

Error Code: Invalid Bootloader Token Length.

Error Reason: The submitted Token appears to be the wrong length and won\'t work.

I have tried it 20 some times, without any luck, here is what I am pasting in....

Help Unlocking Bootloader please!!!!

Trying to unlock bootloader on my Rezound. NO LUCK AT ALL. Tried it on a Vista PC, and also on a Mac OS X Lion computer, both have android sdk, fastboot (fastboot-mac), and any time the terminal creates a token, htcdev.com says it is invalid. HTC has been of my help. Token I get is:

Any ideas? Thanks! Jon
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
Make sure you have no random spaces at the beginning or end of the token and make sure you start exactly where it says to.
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
This from HTCdev.com:

Your token must be exactly the block of text that is highlighted in step 9. Do not copy the INFO or (bootloader) prefix, or the process will not register properly.

If that does not work, it’s possible your phone is using an old software version that does not have the unlock mechanism built in. Try upgrading your phone to the latest update (On your phone HOME > Menu > Settings > About phone > Software updates > Check now) and then try the unlock process again.
[HTC Rezound] mactechnm:
<<<<< Your token must be exactly the block of text that is highlighted in step 9. Do not copy the INFO or (bootloader) prefix, or the process will not register properly. >>>

I have followed the steps on HTCDEV exactly, I have tried multiple things, tried different computers, Mac and PC, still no luck. I have been in contact with HTC, they say they will be calling me tomorrow. I wish they would just give me the stupid info I need to unlock my phone. Why make it so difficult?
[HTC Rezound] nightwings:
why do you have "INFO" preceding every line??

remove them and you'll get the code.

your code is attached!
[HTC Rezound] mactechnm:
Maybe it's because I am running terminal in Mac OS X? and thats the info it gives me... Thanks for the help. :)

Thanks for the guides. I am new to Android and was able to unlock and root last night with the help of these guides.
[HTC Rezound] mighty_markus12:
I just dont like the fact that if i relock the bootloader says so. How can you send a phone in for repairs then under warrenty with verizon? I still hope we get full s-off soon. Id like to be able to go back to stock factory settings if need be.
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
99/100 times they won't even check it, half of them probably don't even know how.
[HTC Rezound] mighty_markus12:
Has attempting s-off been totally abandoned now?
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
I hate to say it but probably.

I've seen zero activity with it lately and if it's being worked on, it's being kept in secret for various reasons.
[HTC Rezound] mighty_markus12:
Thats a shame.
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
Maybe we should try to follow the ideas of pledges here, maybe it'll push devs or anybody who wants to continue trying to get S-OFF.

[HTC Rezound] mighty_markus12:
been reading that thread and they have the same issues we do, no aosp and not alot of development. most of the devs flocked to the gnexus. i just want to be able to put my rezound back to a "full factory" state in case i need to ship it back to verizon for a replacement. but in reality i don't think it's going to happen, look at the evo3d, still no s-off.

besides at this point id rather gather donations for a fully working ICS aosp port.
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
I thought the Evo 3D did have S-OFF at one point, but the method got fixed?

I'd donate to some AOKP personally.
[HTC Rezound] mighty_markus12:
I dont think the evo3d ever had s-off.
[HTC Rezound] patrao_n:
Evo 3d cdma did have soff until htc came out with hboot 1.5. It was locked down for a long time. Recently a breakthrough has been made. The evo 3d no longer needs htc dev. It is now fully downgradable and able to be soff from revolutionary. Worth a look. Its in the stickies in the cdma evo 3d section

Before I start the process I wanted to know if I get stuck where everyone seems to be getting stuck can I still use my phone or do you get stuck past the point of no return?

the token is an attachment in the email, download to desktop, right click and copy it. Paste it in tools folder c:/programfiles (x86)/android/android-sdk/tools

also past in c:/programfiles (x86)/android/android-sdk/platform-tools

power down phone, pull battery, put back in, hold volume down and power, then plug into pc, if not on fastboot choose fastboot, then follow instructions via htc dev site.

[HTC Rezound] HowardZ:
I got unlocked about two weeks ago.

I did it over and over and over and htcdev website kept giving me an error.

I tried to get tech support at htcdev and even included the cut/paste thing, but their reply was that they can not help me and to just follow the directions on their website.

Then on a whim I went into the htcdev account settings and changed my email address to be the google address I use on the phone.

Then it said it was successful, but I would never get the email from HTC.

I did it over and over and over.

Then I tried changing the htcdev account email to another email account I have, and then another, and another. Then I finally found an email adress that htcdev liked. Only on that email address would it really send me the email - and it came within one minute.

It was a very short email address from my private domain name.

The length was: 12.1234567.com with no special characters, just all letters and one digit.

Bottom line: the HTCDEV website is extremely buggy, but I managed to work around the bugs.

Unlock -firmware 2.01.605

I thought I read somewhere on this thread that if you have the ota or 2.01 vs. 1.01 then this bootloader unlock would not work. Is this true?
[HTC Rezound] EmerikL:
The original was 2.01, the OTA was 2.11.

1.05 is the engineering hboot I believe. Where you get the 1.01 from is beyond me.
[HTC Rezound] JCatman:
sorry if I'm mixing things up. I am s-on, locked, and software #is 2.01.605.11, hboot is 2.11, thought i read u can't unlock 2.11 with htcdev process. Is that correct?
[HTC Rezound] pkopalek:
After re-locking my bootloader, and running the 3.11.605.22 RUU, I can't seem to unlock my bootloader.

Is this unusual?

I went through the HTCDev steps, including re-downloading my Unlock_token.bin (which I already had from a month ago), and every time I try to flash it, I get

C:\Android\sdk\platform-tools>fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock.bin

sending 'unlocktoken' (0 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.144s]

writing 'unlocktoken'...

FAILED (remote: unlock token check failed)

finished. total time: 0.152s

Awkward?

Sometimes those codes expire and they are s/n specific so you get a replacement you have to get a new code.

Do all steps 1-7 still work for ICS OTA, or do new procedures need to be developed? I would like to finally unlock and root my OTA now that I have ICS.

TIA!
[HTC Rezound] YeloSub7:
Just get a new token each time you unlock... Just like wiping before you flash, sometimes you don't need to, but it's always a good idea to avoid any issues.
[HTC Rezound] YeloSub7:
Yes, it is supposed to. Try it and report back.
[HTC Rezound] oct2274:
I'm sure your information is helpful for someone that knows what a token is? I'm reading this thread because I've never flashed a rom :) I see the steps about the token, but I'm hoping all that makes more sense after I run through the steps. I just wanted to make sure the steps are still usable and aren't going to brick me or anything!
[HTC Rezound] chaos254:
Everything still works. I just got my new phone, took the OTA and then used hansoons HTC all in one tool to unlock using htcdev and flash amon ra. Very simple, check on his thread in the dev section
[HTC Rezound] twingle:
HTCDev.com is hell cant even load a page.
[HTC Rezound] _TREM_:
Yes, htcdev is very slow, but that's not a big trouble. Trouble is that I can't unlock my bootloader!

Keeps giving me an error!

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.

Unlock Bootloader on HTCdev

On this web site is writen: "Supported Devices. Select “All other supported models” if you cannot find your phone in this list. Devices launched after 9/2011 will be shipped with the unlock capability. Please check back often for updates on the unlock status of additional devices."

What it means "Devices launched after 9/2011 will be shipped with the unlock capability" ? :confused:

That means than i am able unlock bootloader without HTCdev?

I bought HTC One SV in 05/2013.

Does anyone know the answer? :)

Do you know if this wipes out the "SDCard1" partition on the phone (the 'internal SD Card,' if you will.)

I only ask as I have some data on there that isn't on my external card and I don't want to have to wait an hour to copy all the data off of it. Thanks in advance!
[HTC Rezound] Superguy:
No outage here in Baltimore.
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
Also does this unlock token just work for the specific phone we have? Would you have to repeat the same process if you have another phone? Say in the worse case scenario your phone craps out and you have to exchange it, I'm assuming the unlock.bin we received today wouldn't work on it? I'm not too familiar w/ HTCdev since I'm coming over from Moto. Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I am hesitant to use zergRush to get perm root right now since I don't understand why it kills Bluetooth. If BT quits and a reboot does not fix it like with temp root we (us BT users) are hurting.

I have never been through this withoout S-OFF so I need to figure out how to get perm root without problems like BT.

Need a brave soul to try it. I will when I get near one of my other phones just in case because everything I do in the car is with BT.
[HTC Rezound] nightwings:
I think it's a location problem. I have stable 4G connection through this morning at my office, but only 3G connection at the restaurant.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Your right, it will do exactly what you said... Unless you flash via hboot. That recovery is not signed you so you have to flash it manually. I wont get into the details but I wrote a tool for the Evo 3D that will take care of all of this for you guys. Just have to work right now and cant do anything until I get out (in 9 hours) :mad:

Unlock token is device specific.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
It will only work on the phone it was generated from. By the way, don't lose it since it will work again if you turn unlock off with fastboot lock method.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Yep, save those tokens! They work forever on the same device.
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
I wonder how long we will be able to do this on HTC dev. Just hope nothing happens to my device now :x
[HTC Rezound] church101:
So this should help to get full s-off ? If not I can live wit this

LOCK?

I remain really concerned about my phone heat so I do not want to void the warranty for an exchange BUT ...

... did someone say this can be undone? Is there a way to unlock the phone and then lock it again without evidence of the unlock?

Anxious for a response :)

THANKS!
[HTC Rezound] Evo4gLI:
So I've only had phones with full S-OFF...what does this allow us to do? Is it full root plus unlocked bootloader?
[HTC Rezound] lllboredlll:
btw it works i went ahead and played dangerous i now have RA_VIGOR-V3.0.6-getitnowmarketing
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Good news. Thanks
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Yep!

You can undo it but will be noted as "re-locked" instead of "locked"

In other words they will be able to tell.

This has been answered by myself atleast 3 times in the past 20 posts (Maybe only twice).

Unlocked bootloader will allow you to...

1. Flash a custom reocvery

2. Install Custom ROMS

3. Perm Root

4. Pretty much anything at all you want to do to the phone.

S-OFF is not relevant in most situations. With unlocked bootloader you can do *almost* anything you can with an S-OFF device. You just use differnt methods to achieve what you want!

Sweet Dude... Your making it really hard for me to stay at work today! :p
[HTC Rezound] lafrad:
AHHH!!!! Need to get my buzzy sound fixed before I do this!

Yea, 4G and/or 3G data is very much down.
[HTC Rezound] JasonJoel:
Yes, I am. In Memphis, TN.

[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
The sound issue should be addressed by HTC in the future.
[HTC Rezound] dmeadows013:
Yeah. Tried that too when HBOOT didn't work. Gave me a bootcheck error. I'll try again when I get home.
[HTC Rezound] lafrad:
I'm really not convinced its software "fixable".... maybe "maskable". I've worked with enough sound equipment to know its noise before an analog amplifier... someone messed up on shielding or grounding.... or QA wasn't followed...

but thats not for THIS thread. Yay unlock!
[HTC Rezound] lllboredlll:
just a fyi

i ran the straight version of zergrush not any of the temp roots posted here

it does fry the bt but a reboot fixes that and root does stick

Hmm well pretty much the same thing happened to the Bionic. After an OTA they stated the issue has been resolved.

So will this be available if htc decides to take it down from the site? I dont have time to do it right now but if HTC decides to remove the option to unlock bootloader from htcdev will there be another way to do it?
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
So, which root method is the best to use once we are freshly unlocked and returned to factory defaults?
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
YEah, thats what I was thinking. If you want to put one together I will surely help you out. Im sure bored would help you too. But dont wait on me. Otherwise I will do it when I get home...

After I post CleanROM!
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Is there a way ...

... to get the unlock.bin (for safekeeping) but not apply it/void warranty?
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
Only if you generate your key now.

Zergrush is the only method that we know works at all. Don't do the temporary root, use the real zergrush(places files in different locations)
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
thats exactly what I needed to know. Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Yes, just dont apply it. They will still email you the token. You have not voided antyhing at that point. You only void when you apply the token and have to confirm you understand the consequences on the device.
[HTC Rezound] Geoi1006:
Any way to do this without a pc connected the net? That's my only hold up
[HTC Rezound] krazie1:
Okay i see you guys saying backup, do you mean backup the rom through titanium backup? Is it necessary to backup? Because right now my phone is pure stock, no root.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
This one works good.

I think the ones we have on here now for "Temp Root" do it a little different file locations and confuses the phone.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
No, you will need to be connected to a PC.
[HTC Rezound] nightwings:
I just used Titanum to backup important information. And you should have temp root to do that.
[HTC Rezound] Superguy:
Which version is which?
[HTC Rezound] krazie1:
So i dont really need to backup anything. Its just if you want to backup any apps or messages that you want, correct?
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
That is correct! Back up is only mandatory if you have something you need. When you Dev Unlock it hard resets the device. For most it will not be a big deal at all.
[HTC Rezound] Superguy:
Will this allow custom kernels too?
[HTC Rezound] ftmaniac948:
so is it safe to now uninstall bloat instead of just freezing it after running perm root? god im so happy right now
[HTC Rezound] awenthol:
Eff me...didn't read that it would wipe my phone and just lost everything...

Exchange requires credential storage password, so SD was wiped.
