Just unlocked....

Note to Verizon: Got you *****! ;)

Patience is a virtue my friends...I think we have "rooted" ;) out all the bad seeds waiting for root. Thank you to all the Devs who hung in there!
[HTC Rezound] Slacker101:
What's the possibility that we will be able to change the status from re-locked to locked again in case we have to claim something with out warranty? I came from samsung devices where they didn't give a **** what you did lol
[HTC Rezound] SquireSCA:
Mine will not work, as for some reason I cannot get past the first step, in that I remove the battery, boot into hboot and select Fastboot and it does nothing. It doesn't seem to want to boot that way, just stays there in the hboot unless I tell it to reboot.

When I do, I follow the instructions and when I type in the command into a shell, it just sits there waiting for device.

Any idears?
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
I love how we're all like kids on Christmas. Hell if HTC would've done this a few days ago ...
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
I am curious to how this happened.. But I don't want to question a good thing.
[HTC Rezound] MrSmith317:
When you select fastboot it should just open another menu. You phone should NOT be plugged in until after you hit this step.
[HTC Rezound] Tikerz:
It's probably been out there this whole time and no one ever thought to try it :D
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
By all means, Nils, keep us posted, 'cause I'm in the same boat with you. I'd rather have an unrooted phone with BT than a rooted one without BT.
[HTC Rezound] Superguy:
Woot! Thanks!

Now, I know we wouldn't be able to flash other radios, but would official HTC ones still work assuming they're signed?
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Pull the battery

Hold Volume Down then press power

When it comes up use the vol keys to highlight fastboot

Press power

It won't look like it did anything just turns on fastboot
[HTC Rezound] Tikerz:
After he posted that it was confirmed that a reboot fixes BT.
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
The phone itself does nothing once you select "Fastboot". This only allows you to retrieve the token info from your phone and push the unlock.bin file to your phone to flash.

There are fastboot commands you need to type in Command Prompt
[HTC Rezound] phyba:
Wondering the same thing before I unlock.

This completely voids the warranty correct? Doesn't void our insurance though correct so if something like water damaged happened, I can get a new one after paying deductible?
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
I have not run this yet, but I'm guessing it's a good idea to remove the SD card BEFORE unlocking the bootloader as I've seen factory resets on the Rezound actually take stuff off the card. After the reboot, you can power off then reinsert the card.

Would be interested in somebody verifying this.

Phandroid tweeted this http://phandroid.com/2011/12/28/tho...ls/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter and I immediately made my $150 purchase through Amazon Wireless. Huzzah.
[HTC Rezound] Travar1410:
the one click root didnt do anything i dont think? i used it, at the end it said rooted, but if i open up titanium backup, it says the phone isnt rooted, whats up?
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
That made me LOL for real!

0 to none. Once your unlocked you are unlocked or reloacked. No more locked. Decision time is now.

Did you install the HTC drivers?

I know right!

Nope, I check it peridoically. Did not check yesterday though so it could have been there yesterday but someone would have found it. I cant be the only guy that cheked regularly?

Yep.

1. place the recovery.img (extracted from the zip) file in your c:\android folder (or whatever directory you used to unlock the bootloader)

2. boot into fastboot, go to a command prompt (just like you did for bootloader unlock)

3. use this command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

I ran this and now have AmonRa on my Rezound....finally!!!!
[HTC Rezound] azgoofball:
Nils - After the unlock, I used your script and removed the bloat, added the wireless tether, ad free and rebooted. My bluetooth works! :D

Oh and still rooted too lol...
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
Yup confirmed by MrSmith317 and myself
[HTC Rezound] Bradh024:
What about flashing a vigor ruu in hboot to revert back to locked?
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Damn, if I could only install drivers while I was at work, lol. I should have brought my laptop with me today. What was I thinking! DAMN!
[HTC Rezound] dezt818:
Yes indeeed couldnt find it lol

so basically this is the same thing we have to do like the Evo 3D :cool:
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
I just a few minutes ago added the comment to my temp root thread that it is only for temp root and provided a link for perm root with unlocked bootloader in the OP.

Also mentioned just what you said about using the other menu options.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Nope. Said it once, said it twice, will say it for a third time...

Once you take the plunge your device will be forever marked by re-locked or unlocked. You will never again see locked.

This will not change until someone develops a new hack to do that. But right now, its not possible.
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
I'm getting an error saying token not long enough. Any ideas? Do I need to leave the phone in fast boot the entire time? I don't have Wi-Fi atm and am trying to tether and duo it

sent from my new Rezound
[HTC Rezound] Travar1410:
ahh nvm, the first time i ran one click it didnt work, the second time it did, and i now have root.
[HTC Rezound] azgoofball:
You're the man Nils!
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Yes, this will be the exact same processes that the Evo 3D with hboot 1.5 had for recovery.img and boot.img.
[HTC Rezound] Travar1410:
follow them directions exactly, do you have the words above and below the token also copied? you need those words on top and bottom, and to only copy the numbers in between them.

leave your phone where it is.

after u select fastboot, just leave it in the next menu.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
I hope this isn't a mistake. I am 2.5 hours from home with no way to unlock. I hope it isn't patched before I get back. Can't wait for overclock undervolt and aosp ics
[HTC Rezound] Travar1410:
it is no mistake sir :D it is working for me and many others as we speak. i'm sure you'll have time to get it when you get home, i see no reason for them to pull it again.
[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
I've copied it exactly. I'm guessing I'll have to leave the phone in fast boot the entire time... Well I'm headed to the nearest Wi-Fi

[HTC Rezound] Travar1410:
yes leave it in the fastboot menu, it will reset your phone for you after. mine reset by itself anyways. hope yours does
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
do we uninstall htcsync and reinstall drivers? mine worked through htcdev but the phonre isnt recognized in device manager
[HTC Rezound] SquireSCA:
My phone will not boot in Fastboot, so when I go to the Command Prompt and type it out, it just sits there waiting.

I have the HTC drivers installed, as I have done the temp root before, debloated, de-Sensed, etc...

Not sure what is up here...
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
mine said to long i just kept reentering it amd it finally took
[HTC Rezound] Travar1410:
what do you mean your phone wont reboot in fast boot? you dont want it to reboot, just sit there in that menu, then do the command prompt things. it should work then
[HTC Rezound] ftmaniac948:
rooted, flashed amon ra recovery, and about to perform backup. everything works guys and i tell ya, its amazing
[HTC Rezound] dabomb697:
Thanks Nils. Mabye you should post it in it's on thread so it's easier to find?
[HTC Rezound] OLDsJUNKIE:
I can almost taste that ICS!
[HTC Rezound] dccoh:
Woot

Same here. Did the 1-click root, installed Amon-ra via fastboot, performed a full nand backup, ran Nils script to install wireless tether and disable some bloat.

I'm a happy camper. Best After-Christmas gift ever.
[HTC Rezound] Travar1410:
what does this amon-ra thing do? lol
[HTC Rezound] SquireSCA:
NVM, I am retarded, I have the info now, put it in and got the email with my unlock bin file. LOL
[HTC Rezound] Travar1410:
awesome :P
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Generally if you install HTC Sync I beleive it installs all the ADB and fastboot drivers you need. I am not 100% sure because I have the drivers extracted and install them manually on my PC. I dont trust installers, lol

Did you get unlocked?
[HTC Rezound] AndroidGraphix:
I'm trying the one click method found in the OP, after I unlocked from HTCdev.com. It's just hanging on *daemon started Succesfully * . What am I doing wrong? Maybe a corrupt download?

*Have usb debugging mode selected

*Have Charge only mode on.
[HTC Rezound] SquireSCA:
Ok, so I got an unlock code for my phone and also my girlfriend's. Will wait until I see enough data to be confident that there are no ill effects from this, and will then unlock once I am sure that things will be ok.

So if someone can put together a thread that has a nice set of instructions to unlock, root, install recovery, etc... all in one post, that would rock.

Now we just have to see what ROM's come out, now that people can test them on any phone. Sweet!
[HTC Rezound] trickster2369:
Ok, I am leaving now to go buy the Resound. This is the info I have been waiting on. Any reason you can think of that I shouldn't?
[HTC Rezound] jrsmith:
I had the same issue, and resolved it by moving it to a shorter path (ie c:\oneclick\ rather than c:\users\jrsmith\downloads\oneclickroot_1.1\oneclickroot_1.1\).
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
yeah im good i uninstalled htc sync and reinstalled the drivers. . is amon ra the prevered recovery with this method?
[HTC Rezound] OLDsJUNKIE:
I think Amon Ra is the only supported recovery at the moment. Has always worked well on my other phones. Just did a nandroid and am happy as can be!
[HTC Rezound] putney1477:
ok, so I know this will void my warrenty. How will VZW know it was unlocked? I know someone said there is a way to check it, but is there a way for me to see that its unlocked? I just want to know what they would be looking for. Thats all Thanks
[HTC Rezound] kkryter:
Agreed on the nice set of instructions! Not complaining by any means, I've already thanked the original poster, but I'm definitely looking forward to something very comprehensive and straightforward like Squire just mentioned. I'm sharper than your average Joe, but by no means as sharp as the finely honed weapons that we call devs around here! You guys rock, looking forward to seeing great things from you and so glad that it looks like I will no longer have to contemplate exchanging for a you-know-what on or before January 15th.
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
damn still getting device not found in adb. anyone else?

Did you try a different usb port bud? I had an issue with that myself. For whatever reason it didn't like my front panel at all. Had to plug into the back.
[HTC Rezound] putney1477:
What are all these? They are on the right hand side of the page with the instructuions on how to unlock the bootloader.

I am coming from samsung phones where you could always flash or odin back to stock....a little petrified of doing this. Ive never had an HTC phone before

Required Resources

Please make sure all items are installed and up to date.

Google Android SDK zip:

[HTC Rezound] OLDsJUNKIE:
When you hold power and volume down to boot into the bootloader it will say locked or unlocked in green at the top of the screen
[HTC Rezound] Notorious:
If you unlock via htcdev it shows unlocked in the bootloader if you relock the bootloader it will say relocked in the bootloader
[HTC Rezound] dmeadows013:
I'll post a complete guide later
[HTC Rezound] church101:
you can use the htc super tool to do this much easier. you don't have to download all that stuff from htc's site just use it to make your token then paste it on the htcdev site get the unlock code in your email then save it to the htcsupertool folder and bam your done
[HTC Rezound] Izeltokatl:
Lock Bootloader again (if you care)

For those of you asking how to re-lock the bootloader its in the unlock final setups:

for those of you asking how to lock the bootloader again its in the final steps:

Step 12

In the command prompt type: fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin.

Step 13

On your phone you will now see the disclaimer. Please read this carefully as this action may void your warranty. Use the Volume buttons to highlight your choice, and the Power button to make your selection. If you select Yes, your phone will be reset to its’ factory default settings, and your bootloader will be unlocked. If you select No, your phone will reboot and no modifications will have been made.

Step 14

To re-lock your bootloader, in the command prompt, type: fastboot oem lock.

Note: This will not restore the factory default lock, but will simply re-lock the bootloader so no further changes can be made. Furthermore, if you want to unlock your bootloader again, simply repeat step 12 with your original unlock key file to unlock your phone again.
[HTC Rezound] OLDsJUNKIE:
These are applications that must be installed to unlock your bootloader. Android SDK and Java are software used to program, develop, and test. HTC sync is used to sync your phone to your PC.
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
ADB is not technically required for any of this... Only Fastboot. But to answer your question... Did you turn on USB debugging?
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
and i did. just now lol. im an idiot. you would think after rooting all my phones and about ten of my friends iwould have remembered that
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Its all good man! lol We have all done that before!

AS a matter of fact I am so used to running a Custom I always forget to enable it so I spend 15 minutes checking cables, drivers, etc... Then go duh... Enable debug mode, lol
[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
so we flash amon ra in hboot right? this isnt working. then when i reboot i lose root. any suggestions?
[HTC Rezound] AndroidGraphix:
I went into cmd and typed adb devices under c:\android-sdk-windo... and it didn't recognize any devices. Somehow my drivers are not working. Going to install drivers again then attempt one-click root again. Thanks

Edit:

I think that worked along with moving everything over the C:\. Now for recovery...
[HTC Rezound] splatoid:
I also did the one click method and it completed successfully and still no root. Ill try again.

Nevermind I dorked out. I tried to root before unlocking bootloader.

Thanks for the help on this...
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
You flash recovery using the fastboot command that bored noted earlier.

I cant find it now but its some thing like "fastboot flash recovery.img"

Just need to be in fastboot on device and have recovery img and fastboot exe on pc.

I have a tool in the 3D Dev forum that will do it for you. You just need to replace the recvoery with the correct recovery. I will post it up here as soon as I get out of work (5hrs and 20 minutes and counting).
[HTC Rezound] Scott:
Ok, I downloaded my own tool to get the command structure (thats kinda funny if you think about it):

"fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxxx.img"

Like I said earlier you must have fastboot, etc in the path or in the working folder.

LMK

[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
Oh ok I was using the file on the root of my card and going into bootloader. I'll do that thanks. Have perm root which saaaweeet!

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kermode:
What do you think? You think they will make it before the year is out?

I'm skeptical :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] da_ferreira:
ICS before the year is out...

Yup.

Just not gonna say which year.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] neofreek01:
i dont know its getting mighty close id love to see it but i dont see asus puttin it on the tf101 before they use it to sell the prime for a bit, but i think the devs have to be close and i am almost willing to bet the devs get it on the tf101 before asus unless they just have to wait for drivers from asus first to get the few things that arent readily working as it is...ive seen multiple devs with it on their devices or videos anyway. im thinking we could have cm9 by the end of january and asus should be pushin it by absolutely no later than february or march. i kno this seems long off but from the reading ive done its the general range...asus is ahead of most manufacturers on updates though....so we will see, i know im ready for it,i have a feeling this will accomplish the goal of fixing the fragmentation between phones, tablets, and more. and put android on track for complete dominance of the mobile markets.....you can do it!!!!lol
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CrazyPeter:
Given they have only just pushed out a HC3.2 update, no....

That's an admission that we won't be seeing ICS for at least a month.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xMini:
I don't think so... I think that ICS will come in Mid-January or February If it wasn't later than that !!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] C.Flat:
What??? They pushed 3.2 in late July. Asus has been THE BEST at updates
[Eee Pad Transformer General] habylab:
I keep reading they are the best at updates. Its such a small and simple thing for the manurfacturer to do and they have done it perfectly!

Before mid January I would say.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kermode:
Well, I just had a tiny update of some sort the other day. But I thought that might be to fix something in preparation for the big update.

Though, and I don't know if that is related to the patch, suddenly something seems to be running at 100% most of the time making the tablet very sluggish.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] goodintentions:
Not bloody likely.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CrazyPeter:
I said they push A 3.2 update, not the 3.2 update.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deadman3000:
Probably not until after the Prime is widely available. They don't want anything eating into it's sales. Cyogenmmod might come out first.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Zeon45:
I'd say February.

It was just to patch the root exploit. Not a major update
[Eee Pad Transformer General] applebook:
Manufacturers, especially true manufacturers like ASUS and Samsung, generally don't care about supporting their products because they push out updated hardware too often.

I hope that ASUS will be far more reliable than Samsung has been with Android support though because Samsung is atrocious. You can pretty much expect zero support for any Samsung Android phone/tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] KaliKot:
There is too much dumbfounding Samsung hate regarding updates

Fact: the i9000 got updates from 2.1 through 2.3.5 and is still getting weekly leaked OFFICIAL roms

Fact: The i9100 is now on 2.3.6 and has a leaked early ICS build

Fact: The Galaxy Tab 10.1 went from Android 3.0 to Android 3.2 with Touchwiz Enhancements

Fact: Samsung products are EASY to root, have Odin to flash roms from AND NEVER HAVE HAD LOCKED BOOTLOADERS

if you bought the US carrier locked versions then it is their fault that you're not getting updates. As far as I'm concerned, the only thing I see them doing wrong is not getting the ICS update for the original Galaxy S, but that may change soon.

Samsung flagship devices get updated wayyy more often than HTC or other manufacturers. FACT

As far as Asus goes, they are supporting their device well and I presume they will continue this, but patching the rooting is kind of a **** move to the community.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kermode:
That sounds dubious. Every week? And how can they be official if they are leaked. Doesn't sound like something most people would find useful.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ckoadiyn:
They are probably leaked builds of the same update seeing how Sammy sucks at updates n always breaks things lol or something is always wrong. And I'm sorry but the fact that Sammy devices are easily rootable is a BAD thing maybe not for us on xda but is for Jo blow.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wynand32:
ASUS has been incredibly good about keeping the Transformer updated. Best of all the Android tablet makers, including Motorola with the Xoom (which was supposed the reference Honeycomb device). The Transformer has been updated to the latest available version of Honeycomb within a couple of weeks of its release.

I fully expect the same with regard to ICS.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ziffos:
NO - easy for me to say as its 1pm here in the UK and only 11 hours left of this year :rolleyes:

As it is now New Year's Eve, my guess is no.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] irekz:
I for once am not dying for a quick update. I bought my transforer in march and it had an early version of honeycomb - that was a double flustration : both is was full of bugs and support in apps none existent. Now its completly different and im happy with honeycomb and apps. I hope that ICS will be a better experience - but I m happy for asus and app developers to take their time and provide something highly polished this time around.
