No. Just some stuff there that looks to do with face recognition.

Just noticed root explorer maps out the mmcblk numbers with the short 3 digit partition names that were posted a few pages back. Might make things easier mapping out partitions we do/don't know.

If it might be helpful let me know and ill write it all up in the morning.

Other thing I thought about, no idea if its possible. That guy who found the plain text names in hboot for locked/ relocked etc. Surely the hboot has to be reading off some flag to know what to display? Is there any way to track down the flag?

I'm just guessing tho :-P

This is a leftover from compilation/linking the hboot binary, it is part of the hboot source code and not on any device xD
[HTC One X] Rekoil:
They are referring to Tegra 3 service manuals, I doubt nvidia have access to anything that could S-OFF a One X.

These files are part of the source code for HBOOT. Something you can bet your arse HTC are keeping close to home.

EDIT: I see blubbers has already posted that >.<
[HTC One X] f4flake:
It's not about nvidia having anything, as such, but being able to flash whatever you want, to any of the partitions, if you can get into the device before the OS kicks in, like a whole host of tegra based devices.

Get into apx mode and you can pretty much flash whatever you want to any of the rives, whether the bootloader is locked or not.

At least so it has appeared on other tegra based devices, and that's pretty much how nvflash works, particularly in resurrecting bricked devices.

Since the Unlock i have ARHD on my device. It runs very well but for updates i have to go back to o2 stock rom, when i want to install them. Until this time o2 didn´t release any update, HTC the 2nd.

Here's a very novel idea...

Why don't we start a petition to try and reason with HTC to give APX mode access to only SIM FREE devices (As asking them to allow branded phones APX mode access would be far too big of an ask).

Samsung allows download mode on their devices. We can use this as leverage to wrangle some kind of compromise with HTC.

We shouldn't have to spend weeks and months analysing the phone ourselves (Although it is enjoyable in a way). We should have access to it from the start.
[HTC One X] f4flake:
my contract buys the handset. I'm locked into a contract regardless.

The handset is mine. I could switch it off and put my sim into a ****ty old 2g phone for the duration.

Sim-locked is not the problem, since a code can be generally purchased for very little.

Unfirtunately petitioning only works by not spending the money in the first place.

To draw a similar analogy as I've already used today, if you buy a laptop with wlan included which gives you a reduction on the purchase cost but ties you into a contract for the sim for two years, you can still damn well run linux on it instead of windows.

You can also choose to never use the Wlan support.

Inside the OTA update zip file is the folder update.zip and inside that is the HBOOT.img file. I opened that file in note pad and then copied the non envied text in to word. I was basically checking the earlier post about searching for "LOCKED". when i start reading the code script it seems to me that it can give us some clues to the security checking processes.

It does to a certain extent but a lot is already known about the process. A combination of white card (smart card) and a DIAG file will change the simlock and security. The trick is to find an exploit which bypasses the need for either one/both.

[HTC One X] Supaiku:
The guys I talked to said they can flash it, but you can't just use a regular XCT (that little white card maker) box, you need an engineering one, which is probably stolen, or sold on the blackmarket. Maybe next weekend I'll go and see how the process works and if it's actually successful:)

So, if the solution is a white card, the issue is still that you may need specific hardware to use the whitecard on the One X

---------- Post added at 12:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 PM ----------

... I'm pretty sure if there's any truth in that, it's akin to resetting the CMOS on a motherboard... you need to remove the energy source completely. Who knows...

The one with the boot.img is very simply a batch file to flash a regular boot.img via fastboot. Much like many rom devs are doing here now. It's not an unlock of any kind - just making people aware of the fact you can't flash boot.img via recovery because of the semi-locked bootloader.

I have a y cable, and known gold card. I connected them both, ran an official RUU WWE version. My phone is branded Orange UK. It came back with signiature error.

Just tried to run the superversion tool and got wrong CID error too.

Somehow the change of CID that occurs when unlocking the bootloader (while maintaining a different cid elsewhere) is entirely linked.

When the bootloader is unlocked CID changes to none. This I think is planned, and rather than it being a conventional CID (which is maintained elsewhere) it's another check.

Does this make any sense?

I'm thinking the whitecard might be our best bet for now. Someone suggested making a bounty to pay for one I think jokingly but its not a half bad idea. I would be up for putting some money into it. Then we give it to a trusted dev to try and exploit, failing that everyone that puts in a certain amount can send their phone to the dev and have it s-off'ed. For people I'm other countries we send the card to a trusted dev in that country and repeat. Does anyone else think its a good idea?

[HTC One X] visor:
Just a reminder about GoldCard generation - you need to ensure that you get the SDCARD CID from the actual card itself, and not while connected to the phone (otherwise you'll pick up the eMMC CID instead).

The revskills tool (http://psas.revskills.de/) will help with that if you put the SD into a card reader (and then into a USB port).

Hope this helps.
