I haven't gotten it to work yet, unfortunately (though I think others over there have)... I suspect the HTCdev is where I've effed up. Tried it both unlocked and relocked.

Edit: Just saw your post in the other thread. Gonna give that a whirl...

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Aldo101t:
I' m wondering if you could flash a custom rom, with the bootloader unlocked and then ruu the 2-3-4 with .98 and then run the downgrade tool. Of course you'll have to relock to do the ruu, just thinkin, it might work get you from that software version
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] DeV4473:
I would post this in the official [TOOL] thread, but my forum account is unqualified to post there as of now, so sorry if this is too off-topic.

I have an Incredible 2 running 5.10.605.9. It was a warranty replacement I got back in March. Is my phone still safe to use this tool without going through the hassle you guys are getting? I'm worried if something was pushed OTA without me knowing, as this phone belonged to my girlfriend until she traded me for my Incredible 1 tonight.

Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mcsplatt:
This tool should work perfectly for you as long as you're on the 5.10 software.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] DeV4473:
And that it did. Thanks so much. I was able to root with Revolutionary shortly after.

Best of luck to you guys in finding a solution to the 6.x Software.

30000000000030003000100000000 Electrify who performed OTA update to 2.3.5 and now stuck with locked bl

---------- Post added at 05:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 PM ----------

I would also like to say lightsword, that when i fastboot flash RDL3_unlocked_electrify.smg, my phone blinks, then has a steady motologo with no messages. (Unlike other things i flash, I get an error message) I tried oem unlock next but it doesnt do anything on the phone and dos says the typical message. FYI
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
What SBF was that smg file pulled from? Was it the one I posted?
[Motorola Photon 4G] phince1:
I think so, maybe the engineering sbf??? It's somewhere in that long post we were working from...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
Ok, I think that was pulled from the 2.3.5 SBF most likely, basically just ramloading the locked bootloader. Doesn't really help us much though.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lokifish Marz:
Hope this helps;

Previously unlocked Photon

flashed 198_6 SBF

flashed 2.3.5 leak, minus ap20bl.img

unlocked using derpunlock

flashed CWM5 recovery

Baseband is now N_01.28.10R

ODM matches the following:

10000000000010001000100004000-standard unlocked photon
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
Do you know if the 2.3.5 leak you flashed has the original leaked boot.img?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lokifish Marz:
All I did to the original leak was remove the AP20 bootloader and any script lines referencing it. I just remembered that I have since flashed joker's 1.3 kernel but other than that there have been no changes that should affect ODM data.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
I had a look at the files and the leaked boot.img does seem to be present in both. Maybe it only writes the value under certain conditions.
[Motorola Photon 4G] phince1:
So no idea on overwriting the bootloader?

Sent from my Motorola Electrify using Xparent Blue Tapatalk 2
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
Well, it may be possible to flash from within bootstrap, however I do not know how to correctly format the bootloader or if the recovery would need to be modified.
[Motorola Photon 4G] phince1:
So u think we can bypass the fastboot errors by flashing in bootstrap? Sounds good but hopefully someone can help u complie the sbf into a bootstrap zip...

[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
This is a hell of a shot in the dark but if someone wants to try the Japanese photon system and see if wimax works message me on IRC.

You can try flashing the unlocked bootloader, but I'm pretty sure you are stuck for now.

Definitely a possibility, but we would need someone who knows how to implement it(not me).

Ask they cyanogenmod people how to compile. This probably will not be of much use for unlocking though.

Yours looks normal, just don't install any leaks :P
[Motorola Photon 4G] moparfreak426:
im stuck:(
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
No problem there!! The onky thing I plan on installing is other custom ICS or updated and maybe official CM builds! :D

My MoPho's in the kitchen sink!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
Nope, development has slowed greatly since Motorola canceled ICS. IMO this is our only hope of getting a properly functioning CM9/10 but even then it is unlikely it will have 4G working. If you want working 4G with ICS or higher your only real option is to get a new phone.
[Motorola Photon 4G] R2DeeTard:
Don't know if this will get 4g working with a custom rom, but http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2072644 is a thread for u-boot for our phone. I don't know if it has been tested yet, but it looks promising.

[Motorola Photon 4G] leetcharmer:
I was looking at that thread earlier. I think that thread only applies to 2.3.4+ and I'm on 198_7.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
I mean I'm sure its technically possible, I just don't think we have the resources to do it. If it weren't for the bootloader bug we would probably have 4G on gingerbread based ROM's but as it stands now we have 2 huge obstacles that present a real problem, the first is drivers and their integration to ICS/JB and the second is the bootloader bug. On top of that ICS/JB are a real mess right now since we don't have proper hardware acceleration drivers. I am using GSM so I cant even use 4G and still us CM7 because ICS/JB are still a buggy mess since we don't have hardware acceleration or proper camera drivers.

Has anyone else seen this?

http://blog.azimuthsecurity.com/2013/04/unlocking-motorola-bootloader.html

I know this is likely for newer phones but it appears to be promising. I can't find anything about this tool for our phones, but it appears it's made the rounds to the Atrix HD/RAZR HD/RAZR M, so I'll remain cautiously hopeful. Maybe someone with a modicum of ability with this sort of thing will figure it out.

Here's the Atrix HD thread wif dem toolz:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=40074577
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
Yeah, I saw, interesting that they exploit from within android. Would likely have to be significantly modified to be useable for us though.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kozmo403:
Upon further review, it looks to be an exploit for Moto phones using Qualcomm CPU's. Since ours is Tegra2....

I'll continue to hold out hope....

[Motorola Photon 4G] InsanePostman:

[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
Probably, try this.
[Motorola Photon 4G] pradeeppk:
few days back softkeys of my electrify stopes responding. So i decided to try this method to unlock the bootloader.( do or die)....

Surprisingly my electryfy 2.3.5 's bootloader unlocked in first attempt. Thank you so much friends. I am feared about bricking of my phone. But nothing Happened...Once again thank you Lightsword:good::highfive:
[Motorola Photon 4G] Metalor:
Hello, I have electrify locked with 2000000000200030000000100000 - "photon attempted to flash wrong pudding file (2.3.5 testing one)"

Could I use this method to unlock?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
Give it a try, shouldn't brick it or anything like that.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Metalor:
When I type "fastboot flash rdl.bin RDL3_unlocked.smg" in CMD, then phone show:

1c10d60

SVF:106:1:2

sec_exception: b655, eddc, eb

on display.

So I think, it means, that electrify 2.3.5 with 2000000000200030000000100000 is not unlockable by this method.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
Yeah, probably not much you can do then, might I suggest a hammer :P In any case with Motorola abandonment this phone is pretty much dead in regards to development anyways.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
I have a bootloader unlock test file, flash from bootstrap and see if it works. MD5 is F3D91569CC15D0A227B338E62230CF60
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Could you please tell something more to this bootloader? It's looking very risky this way. Where does it come from? It's hex edited? Or?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
I just pulled it from the pudding sbf. I then changed it to match the update-script that is used when performing an ota. Have not hex edited the image at all. I agree it is risky, but if someone wants to try that is stuck on 2.3.5 I'm making it available.

[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Someone should update the bootstrap recovery, I think. Or better, port 2ndinit to Photon.

Edit: Fastboot update is not for our phone.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
Will the stock recovery flash an update.zip if it is placed in the cache partiton?
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Never flashed with stock recovery anything. Just tried once. But it wants external sdcard. And must be signed update.zip. Motosigned :-)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
Unless bootstrap is rebuilt I don't think it is going to work right for flashing the bootloader from what I'm seeing. Is there some sort of menu in stock recovery at all? Also see if the radio unlock we just found can be flashed from bootstrap, if that doesn't work we can be pretty sure the recovery is the problem.
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Yes, I think it's the recovery. I think it doesn't take that moto updater-binary.
