[HTC Pico (Explorer)] #define:
You've read correctly.. There's actually two stages to unlocking your phone.. Rooting comes after unlocking.. Unlocking your bootloader and radio.. What the HTCdev website does, is unlock the bootloader.. There is no way to unlock radio for our phone yet.. And thats because this phone is relatively new..

For more info on this, just google 'What is S-OFF'... You'll find all the info you need..

Also, there's this thing called an XTC Clip.. It turns your phone to S-OFF.. A piece of hardware, it is.. A 1 time use XTC clip costs around 70 US$..

Not compatible with Explorer yet..

And also, this just in.. HTC phones unlocked from the official HTCdev website, turned to S-OFF, have been successfully Locked and S-ONed.. LOCKED.. Not RELOCKED... So they got their warranty back.. I believe they were HTC EVO 3Ds...

And there are a lot of theories flying around, for ideas regarding S-OFF or Locking instead of RElocking.. You can find them all here on XDA..

Most of them in the HTC Wildfire S forum..

And also, as long as you have S-ON, it is impossible to hard brick your phone, because all the changes that you make to the partitions, are lost on reboot.. So no error sticks.. Unless you are crazy enough like me, to try some other phone's gold card into your Explorer..

So, you wont be needing your warranty, unless you damage your phone physically, as it is not possible to (soft)damage an HTC without S-OFF..

Everybody else.. If I'm wrong in this somewhere, please correct me..

HTC phones are hauntingly complicated..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] daddybux:
I've tried unlocking the bootloader on my explorer, downloaded the files and followed the process but somewhere along the line something goes wrong.

1. What is the RUU?

I noticed on the tut. That I used the first time, it said nothing about it. Once it didn't work I tried a different tut. It mentioned flashing the RUU to update. But on that tut. On the htc.dev sight it gave that option, on the one I used that wasn't an option. Is changing the RUU mandatory and if so how?

2. Which file needs to be extracted, in the beginning there are three files that have to be pasted in a folder that I have to create. I did that and when I open the window to give the commands I notice that on the tut. It shows as admin/user: but mine reads user/user: what did I do wrong? I can't get passed that point. Any help will be appreciated. I'm anxious to root my ex. And start modifying. Thanks fellas!:what:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] #define:
An RUU is Rom Update Utility.. Its given out by the company in the form of updates over the stock Rom.. As far as I know, an RUU isnt required for htc explorer yet..

To unlock the bootloader, you need two commands.. ADB and Fastboot.. Download this package..

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=992962&d=1333997171

It has ADB and fastboot.. so you dont need to download the whole sdk.. Also, download htc sync for drivers..

After that, follow the instructions given on the htcdev website.. and if everything goes properly, you'll hve an unlocked bootloader..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] DanceOff:
You can do it but no dev( with that knowledge) is interested to look in our small Pico

Example

Wildfire s bootloader can be controlled without HTCdev

There is a software by which you can unlock relock and show locked also !!!

I am running Evolution 4 with the amidabuddha kernel at present, I want to flash lowvelds new version 5.0.0 update today.

As the update is a full rom & not just an update am I right in thinking this will wipe all my apps & settings again or will flashing the rom just act as an update & as Im only going to wipe the Cache & Dalviks the settings will be ok?

My Desire is HTC Dev Unlocked.

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Wipe cache and dalvik and then flash the ROM settings and applications will be in tact. All the same always take a full nandroid backup first to be sure..

If you're htcdev unlocked you'll need to flash boot via fast boot, all this is explained in the thread

[HTC Wildfire S] rioachim:
If you really want to install it, use Goldcard to install only modem part of this RUU's zip: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1874070 (let it load, verify, start update and take out battery at the second load and verify of image file). For S-ON the radio will be updated only by a RUU.

take your time, loading and verifying of image file is a 20sec-30sec process, so leave the phone alone to update modem (do not interrupt it!) and take out battery at the second load/verify.

for me it worked just fine.

Hi,

i have some question

About my Wildfire S ==> S-Off H-Boot 1.08 Radio 7.53.39.03M

1) Can i get back to my old radio when the new radio are not so good?

2) Do I need to update the Hboot?

3) If I have to do a hboot update, i must install the Rom new?

4) there for me as S-off users a difference between Hboot 1.08 and 1.09?

thanks

McGrady
[HTC Wildfire S] Olivier:
1 & 3) No.

2 & 4) You've to upgrade hboot otherwise your wfs will be hard-bricked

Gesendet von meinem Wildfire S A510e mit Tapatalk 2
[HTC Wildfire S] Eskuero:
Okey really it's not impossible to get it working on Unlocked (S-ON), I've managed it to update my radio and hboot :P

1 - Lock again your bootloader: fastboot oem lock bootloader.

2 - Download a get the ROM.zip from the latest RUU, that contains the newest radio and hboot: http://www.filefactory.com/file/7c4...5.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_261695_signed.exe

3 - Make an goldcard and just copy the rom.zip leaked from the RUU changing his name into PG76IMG.zip, the reboot into bootloader...

4 - If everything was well it will detect the .zip, load it and then ask you to install it, first it'll install hboot and radio, then i'll authomatic reboot and flashes the entire updated system, boot... etc.

5 - If you still have your unlock_code.bin from htcdev, just reboot into bootloader, on fastboot mode, and just type: fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin

6 - It'll ask you unlock your bootloader, say yes, and then it reboots.

7 - And that's all, now you can reinstall again another recovery and flash then the rom that you want or restore an backup :P
[HTC Wildfire S] Yasounet:
You can aswell use BootLoaderTool to relock and then unlock bootloader. After first reboot ( after flashing new radio ) just pull out your battery to prevent updating recovery, system etc. It saves some time since you dont have to unlock with htcdev again and restore your old rom/flash new one - all you have to do is unlocking bl in recovery.
[HTC Wildfire S] Eskuero:
I didn't need to unlock from htc again, i just take my old .bin and works perfectly...

If we got hard bricked, any chance to recover?
[HTC Wildfire S] shaarky:
Small update, just tested on UN-LOCKED S-ON :

0 - do naindroid backup / Titanium backup

1 - Lock again your bootloader while having phone in Bootloader mode : fastboot oem lock bootloader. (you will need android-sdk-windows, inside is fastboot.exe) Don't try it without this, it will not work. It will show "RELOCKED" in the bootloader mode.

2 - Download latest RUU get the ROM.zip from the latest RUU (from your TEMP directory), that contains the newest radio and hboot: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1874070 (Start RUU, then check ROM.ZIP file in the TEMP directory)

3 - Make an goldcard (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1248095) and just copy the rom.zip leaked from the RUU changing his name into PG76IMG.zip, the reboot into bootloader...

4 - If everything was well it will detect the .zip, load it and then ask you to install it, first it'll install hboot and radio, then it will automatic reboot **PULL OUT THE BATTERY WHEN YOU WILL SEE THE RECOVERY SCREEN AGAIN AFTER 1st RESTART (NOT!!!! SOONER) ** OR do nothing and it flashes the entire updated system, boot... (factory reset, newest STOCK RUU install) etc.

5a - STOP HERE - do nothing and enjoy latest RADIO on your current ROM

OR

5b - If you still have your unlock_code.bin from htcdev, just reboot into bootloader, on fastboot mode, and just type: fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin. If not, follow all instructions on http://htcdev.com/bootloader

6 - It'll ask you unlock your bootloader, VOLUME UP -> yes, press POWER button and then it reboots.

7 - This will FACTORY RESET YOUR CURRENT ROM - so feel free now to either restore backup or try eg. latest CM10 ;)

**Big thanks to OliverG96,Yasounet and others from this thread ;)
