thanks man, is it possible to flash just the file by hboot?

trying to work out if it will allow edited files to be run. running older hboot should sufice. you wont need to run it, it asking should be enough like.
[Wildfire General] spudata:
Not quite sure what you mean. If you're asking if just the "hboot.nb0" file can be flashed on its own, then yes.
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
That's exactly what I meant ;) cheers pal.
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
so ive been f**king about with the diag file, and ive noticed that it has the ability to flash htc files, hboots and the like. not that its much use to us atm but still interesting to note. may be helpful for people trying to downgrade bootloaders for revolutionary. (anybody who is thinking of rev'ing there phone and is one hboot to high, let me know please so you could test this idea for me :rolleyes:

on another note, the diag file seems to ask the radio directly if it is radio s-off or not, so that is how its bypassing the rev.s-off and not doing what we want it to. i think :/

but! we still have hope, as the rev. hboot allows it to start, even if it is not signed by htc, so in theory if we can manipulate it so it thinks that it has the flexy cable attached to it, or make it just run without requiring the permission we *may* just be able to be able to make it run, thinking that the f.cable is in, so it would effectively xtc clip the phone. s-off, supercid, and simunlock. the lot. but, i dont really know how to edit the code to make it work without it. anyone want to tag in and help?
[Wildfire General] apollopayne:
Hi Ive managed to get a xtc clip and s-off this way as me and a friend have put half towards it as on basic i pay him back lol. So if anyone wants it done in shrewsbury area, pm me (beer donations are welcome lol). Back to the topic, my uncle has a wildfire as well and ill be having it for a week or so. So I will kindly test this out for you. just a quick question if anyone knows. Whats the extra file that gets created after using the xtc clip?

there a diag file and and another that you rename for some reason from xtc instruction, but there's another file that gets created size is 0 kybes but still interested what it is?
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
Its the gold card file is it not? My clip only makes 2 files, the diag file and the gold card file :-/

And I've been reading this diag file for ages and I am getting nowhere. The wildfire s guys have discovered that after they HTCdev they can load images into the ram, and use that to map out the partitions on the phone. They then intend to write directly to the radio and s-off from there. Our hboot however doesn't support this feature, even the htcdev ones afaik. Just too old, so I think we are stuck. The radio seems unobtainable from our phones, even with s-off I don't think we can map it in. So I dunno where to go from here, in way over my head lol thoughts?

sent from my ice cream sandwich powered HTC WILDFIRE B-)
[Wildfire General] apollopayne:
think its the same 2 files but when I created the goldcard using software from dev section here, it doesn't create that file? Also when I did use the xtc clip It failed twice with the same error as when I tried your file a month ago ish? On 3rd time it went through?
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
Really? Maby its part of the process the xtc clip needs to function?? And tbh sometimes I find it just has a huff :-p

[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
discovered something interesting last night. the rev. bootloader is fastboot enabled ;) does anyone know the default partition sizes of the wildfire on the nand?
[Wildfire General] buggme:
hello, I have the wildfire S, and I'm just trying different things to unlock mine.

but I have been reading and reading on the simlock.

I was able to run adb.exe shell and the run "strings -n 8 /dev/block/mmcblk0*"

I would get 2 mins of info.

so when I ran it with "strings -n 22 /dev/block/mmcblk0*" and changed the number to 22 from 8 so i looks for 22 strings.

so soon is i started it. i would have to hit Pause/Break key. I then would search for my IMEI number with is 22 numbers. I had it with 8 other numbers on one line.

NOTE: took me a min to hit pause key to be able to search for my IMEI number.

3594550********85391724 that was the frist step.

I then tryed a link to a Universal unlock where I would have to reboot Hboot and try the Simlock to where it would fail. http://www.sieempi.eu/blog/2011/09/22/universal-sim-unlock-for-s-offed-htc-devices-536

well i used notepad to open the Config.dat file and it was the same with some extra info..

pulled from adb.exe 3594550********85391724

downloaded for sieempi. !  3594550********85391724 22701F

it the same. but when i tryed to last 8 digits to unlock. NO GO. 85391724

i have read for like 3 hrs now. and that what I have came up with.
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
Tbh I feel that this is a lost cause. I simply cannot do it. In any event this thread is long dead. But, for you if nbh and the guys over at the wildfire s s-off campaign get you full radio s-off then you could all just run the diagnosis file to get sim unlock and supercid. Pity, alot of effort went into this thread.
[Wildfire General] Slymobi:
Agreed. A lot of effort went into attempting this,shame but I think R.I.P lol

UTID
[Wildfire General] codeXcalibur:
So any change in this topic? Is it possible now?
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
If you have true radio s-off yes, but you would need the xtc clip to do it. And then you would already have it. Sorrybud.
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
If and when the wildfire s guys finish their s-off exploit it will hopefully work the same way as the xtc clip and in theory not only could you sim unlock but reverse s-off by xtc clip. But its a lot more difficult than previously thought....
[Wildfire General] Slymobi:
Who dares revive this headache of a thread ? Lol.

[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
lol its almost like a myth now :p
[Wildfire General] Scratch0805:
I still don't get why people don't state when they are buying a phone that they want it sim free, that's one of the first questions I ask always and most of the time you'll get what you ask for........
[Wildfire General] riahc3:
Sorry for the rebump but since some time has passed, has a newer method which works with the HTC Wildfire been found to SIM unlock for free?

Thanks
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
Nope, and it will probably never will pal.
[Wildfire General] Malcom PT:
And now? xD
[Wildfire General] Scratch0805:
Or type getprop ro.cid which does show it as 11111111, which one should I believe?
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
is this how you check or get supercid? oh and the link wont work for me :/

the sensation gang use a adb command here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=16125079 think it would work for us?
[Wildfire General] Lesicnik1:
Link works here.

Here's a mirror: http://www.mediafire.com/?undefined
[Wildfire General] Scratch0805:
Just been thinking about it while walking the dog, from what I've read supercid gives you the ability to flash a Rom from a different country, so I could flash a chinese Rom even though I'm in the uk. I haven't seen anything posted about unlocking the simlock with it, I have a funny feeling I've been sidetracked and the cid is different to the simlock.
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/android/thread?tid=7ef6fbcb3b6582ce&hl=en

i found this saying that its to do with country and network locks

http://www.simply-android.com/discussion/1600/how-to-super-cid-for-sensation/p1 and this.

maby they run in conjunction with each other. maby the simlock checks the cid for location locks or something?

also slightly off topic but i just ran up the stairs to get my charger, with my phone in hand, and the case just broke and flung my poor wildfire against the wall and then down the stairs !! luckly i appear to only have damaged the case but that was a close one!:o:D
[Wildfire General] Slymobi:
lol.sorry but just been thinking about the amount of time spent scrolling through files and internet etc etc and if we had all but these hours into work then we could probably between us pay for half the wildfire community sim unlock hahaha.

its all getting too complicated for my little memory box now but wish you all the luck. if you need me at anytime to look for certain files on my 2 phones to compare then give me the path and i will gladly check for you. although the unrooted phone is the missus's so cant delve too deep into that.

regards as always slymobi.
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
fair enough my friend, was good to have you here :)

i think that our best bet your be to make a wildfire compatable version of this http://www.sieempi.eu/data/download.php?id=7 this is the .nbh file the sensation guys use to simunlock. i got ballsy and renamed it pc49diag.nbh and put it on the phone to see what happens but it says that its the wrong device id......
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
possible solution

look at this!!!!!

http://www.sieempi.eu/blog/ (scroll down a bit)

this is the guy who made the sensation simunlock tool anybody wanna give it a bash?
[Wildfire General] Scratch0805:
So I was kind of on the right track then?

According to the comments on that link its only for the phones in the list and doesn't work on the wildfire:(

(why am I sad I'm unlocked already) sorry folks :D
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
well i went ahead and did it anyway, even though im sim unlocked from xtc clip and i can report that my phone is still alive and nothing seems to have changed :) looks like were waiting for someone to test.:)

dam. i never looked at the comments :/

back to the drawing board.....
[Wildfire General] Slymobi:
im a follower not a leader lol im not willing to risk it sorry guys.i dont need to unlock my sim really so i couldnt bare it if something happened. it took me 8 months nearly to take the plunge and s-off so Eeeeeeek not gonna be the guinea pig !!
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
heh its cool man, i would but ive already got it with the xtc clip lol. although my brother does have a wildfire......;)
[Wildfire General] Scratch0805:
Any idea what the simlock in hboot is/does?
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
its for if your phone has been unlocked and you want to re-inable to the simlock.

also ive been thinking, that diag file thats used for the sensation, the guy says it came from raskel, they guy who did the xtc clip. and that got me thinking about how the xtc clip must work. logicaly it must remove the s-on first and then the diag file is for the supercid and simlock. so, having a xtc clip i used the create gold card option and sure enough there was the gold card and the diag file on the sdcard. so i put it in my phone WITHOUT the xtc clip attached and sure enough it allowed me to use the diag file and it took me through the motions of unlocking the simlock again :cool: so if im correct then this is the same way the sensation guys are doing it after s-off. i dunno if i want to post the files seeing as they were not made by me though................

thoughts?
[Wildfire General] Scratch0805:
Check your pm's.......
[Wildfire General] sythe179:
Wildfire...you can use goldcards...not much else you need...look into that...
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
i think the gold card is used more for the s-0ff than the simunlock.....
[Wildfire General] Scratch0805:
I do believe you have cracked it, although it would require s-off before using it I think.

I just ran the PC49DIAG on my phone it went through the motions clearing s58 data and at the end mentioned simlock, the phone rebooted fine after, but as I was already unlocked this means nothing to me......
[Wildfire General] Scratch0805:
Managed to get hold of the girlfriends wildfire earlier too, ran it on that and checked the cid beforehand which was HTC_001 afterwards it still showed as HTC_001 in the .diag menu and getprop ro.cid wouldn't work from terminal, this phone has been used with an o2, 3 and a Orange sim card before so I'm guessing it was already unlocked, I'm a bit confused as to why cid doesn't show up as 11111111 though. Or is that cid because it was bought unlocked maybe.

See if raskel answers first, then you'll need someone who is s-off, definitely sim-locked and has access to 2 different sims. I've done all I can but can't see if it works or not. :(
[Wildfire General] Slymobi:
Ah,this is so tempting but !!!!! I just don't know. Eeeeek let's see if anyone will take the plunge.

regards,slymobi
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
and the plot thickens lol. just gotta wait then lol. if this works though then it would work for any htc phone that the xtc clip can run on. going to be quite interesting to see raskals response. soooo :P anybody brave enough :P:P:P thats three phones that have already been unlocked BEFORE testing that have survived the maddness lol

also sly, if you really need the phone best not try anything untill we can get solid evidence of this working. ive told my brother to send me his wildfire, i was just going to use the xtc clip to s-off ect but im thinking it will make a nice guniepig ;) might take a while for him to pull his finger out and get it to me but its always an option, i`ll just not tell him :P
[Wildfire General] Scratch0805:
Lol.... Yeh just tell him its easier this way!

P.s the diag is a bit daunting when you first see it as the UI is completely different to anything I've seen on wildfire before, but I've had it up twice now on mine and once on the other to get a feel for it and see what info it shows. Most of it means nothing to me though and left me scratching my head.
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
See I've seen it before with the xtc clip so I'm used to it lol and unfortunately my brother is busy with exams so I may not see it for a while....

This close to greatness and a lack of locked phones kick us on the nuts Ffs lol never thought I'd be this desperate for a LOCKED phone :p
[Wildfire General] sieempi:
Hi, guys, nice chat!

I've heard reports that some people managed to unlock their Wildfires using my tool made for Desire. I haven't done any test on WF due to various reasons, but I would, though..

If there are any guineea pigs here, let me give you a hint: try the tool with all combination of hboots and radios, starting from the most early. There must be at least one combination vulnerable to the same thing Desires are; you might even keep an open log, here.. Get the info from the people who actually managed it (quite a few in desire thread).

Good luck!

Ps: hboot >1.xxxx are known to have this patched, don't know about alpharev/revololutionary hboots..

Via XDA App
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
Could you confirm if the xtc clip diag file would work or not? Or are we at least on the right track with this? Seems that most of us that are trying to check it already have sim unlocked by other methods.
[Wildfire General] sieempi:
The diag file would only work in the following situations:

-xtc clip connected

-htc factory sim inserted in the phone

-the phone already has radio s-off

Via XDA App
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
hmmm. correct me if im mistaken but radio s-off is given by revolutionary?? if so then the revolutionary guys are on :P
[Wildfire General] sieempi:
No, they only offer a patched hboot which fools the system it's s-off.

[Wildfire General] Scratch0805:
Can we have a link to your desire thread please, I'd like to have a read of it.:)
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=16125079 pretty sure this is it.

also if we got supercid could we then flash this? or is it a specific bug thats used only in the sensation?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=943726 might be this one :P
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
124 pages, this might take a while :P
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
just had a thought, does revolutionary allow the flashing of radios and hboots? because if it does then logically could we not just flash a older hboot that could be s-offed fully and then just flash the diag file? or could we try to make a s-offed radio file like unrevoked forever that would permanently s0off the device allowing us to flash whatever we dam well please ;)
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
Any ideas?
[Wildfire General] siekala123:
Hi

Does all htc have the same radios?Or htc sensation have other kind radios?

sorry to my bad english.
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
no!!!

no!! radios are device specific and dangerous to muck about with! if you flash the wrong one you could BRICK your phone. possibly irreversibly. best not :D
[Wildfire General] siekala123:
Maybe some one is try that and now what happins.
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
try to flash a radio thats not for that phone?? that would kill it.:confused:
[Wildfire General] sythe179:
It's not a could, its a certainty. Only flash the correct radio build for the phone that your flashing.

If you brick it, and there's not an unbrick method for that phone, will be stuck with a brick. Warrenty does not cover software....
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
i thought as much, thanks for the comfirmation :D
[Wildfire General] apollopayne:
Hi guys im willing to try with mine as my contract to renew in july so not long til new phone. Please list me instructions and files in order and ill try.
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
Check your pm's and remember this comes with no warrenty or claim to success. Let us know if it works good luck :)

hmm. have you tried a different sim in it just to see? and thanks very much for testing :) any objections to me putting this post up to the thread?[/QUOTE]

go a head m8 and yes tried a vodafone 1 and its locked :( but if any changes done to this im will still lol[/QUOTE]
[Wildfire General] apollopayne:
Did anyone try this? I m testing it now ill post feed back

1. read MCCMNC file ''success''

2.Open CID file fail :(

3.waiting for AMSS ready

4.Get device IMEI ''success

5.IMEI checking... ''PASS''

6. Process done Reboot

Still locked after this but i feel the answer is in the CID I hope this is useful and sorry if all this you guys already know. Just want to help! ;)
[Wildfire General] sieempi:
That solution is not available for WF for various reasons. However, you might try what I said in a previous post, using a combination of earlyer hboots and radios with the app for Desire.

Via XDA App
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
firstly thanks for testing :) and it does seem like the cid is where its going to get people. since im unlocked with a xtc clip i will flash back to an earlier hboot and we`ll see how i get on :)

wish me luck :P
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
have tested the desire method with hboot 0.80.0002 and the program says its not a desire. have also tried again with the config.bat and a gold card just to see but no joy. radio 3.35.19.25 :/ seems we need to get supercid
[Wildfire General] sieempi:
Ok, then. Start your phone in hboot and only then connect it to the comp and run the app. In this way you'll bypass the model check.

[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
ok i ran version 0.9.5 with hboot 0.80.0002 and it said that everything has went flawlessly and to buy you a beer. i already have sim unlocked by xtc clip, so we need a way to get people downgraded to this hboot for testing

is it possible to downgrade hboot after revolutionary?

i know it would s-on people again but is it possible?

also just tested again with hboot 1.01.0001 and it said it worked again so it may be since ive done it with the xtc clip...
[Wildfire General] apollopayne:
we can go to any hboot again, any in theory as ive done this once and went from aplharev to 1.01.0001 and got S ON and then used

Revolutionary to get to s-off and patch hboot. Plz link me the method you have tried ill give it a go
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
excellent :) try first with the revolutionary hboot and if that doesnt work and you want to try the 0.80.002 hboot go for it. i have the hboot here if you need a download.

remember to boot into bootloader and then run the program. its the htc desire unlock.exe

keep us posted please.
[Wildfire General] apollopayne:
ok ive tried revolutionary and it said everything went fine and donate a beer etc..

but phone still locked.

yes please i was looking now for the hboot 0.80.002
[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:
ok i dont know if this will work with the rev. bootloader but i always just put the new bootloader and the htc update txt in a pc49img.zip and then just boot into the bootloader and let it update. but if you have a different way of doing it the hboot is in the zip file :)

good luck :cool:

thanks I dont suppose you have CMW recovery image 5.0.2.0 as main thread was uploaded into megaupload.com but its no more

[Wildfire General] heavy_metal_man:

[Wildfire General] apollopayne:
Ive tried your way with the zip and didn't work and had to do a nan restore which is fine. I want to try the other way but using adb command but i really want to get a cmw recovery (5.0.2.0) with out the tweaks (Mtd partitions) because if some reason i cant get back to s-off at least i should be able to have a working phone

once we have rev. s-off is there anyway to access the area where the real s-off is kept and alter it?
