What was your previous request? If your bootloader is unlocked your pretty much rooted, are you trying to use the tool to remove the HTC apps?
[Android Software Development] The Dawg:
Phone: HTC ONE V

Error in log after flashing TWRP:

System.InvalidOperationException: This BackgroundWorker is currently busy and cannot run multiple tasks concurrently.

at System.ComponentModel.BackgroundWorker.RunWorkerAsync(Object argument)

at WinDroid.MainForm.noReturnFastbootCommand_DoWork(Object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)

What should I do?
[Android Software Development] Rapscallion16:
That error just means that you attempted to do another command while the TWRP flashing was still finishing, and it errored out. As long as TWRP flashed correctly, you're good to go. If it didn't, try again but wait a minute after it finishes flashing before doing something else so there isn't a conflict with the commands.
[Android Software Development] CroNoob:
great work dude, is there any option where you can choose specific recovery? not just twrp or cwm, im using htc explorer and we have moded recoveries so it would be nice if i can choose exact version of the recovery
[Android Software Development] Rapscallion16:
The toolkit only includes TWRP, but you can flash your own modded recovery in the Fastboot Commands tab.
[Android Software Development] kieran_bondflashy:
how?

my previous request was on the phone support page in the OP, anyways, if my bootloader is unlocked, how do i flash a new recovery? and no, i want to install supersu and then remove the htc apps through root uninstaller ...
[Android Software Development] CroNoob:
thanks for quick response, will try, anyway, awesome work done :D
[Android Software Development] nate51:
I didn't search it too in depth but it looks like there is no custom recoveries for that phone. So I am not sure how you will get a custom recovery on the device unless someone knows of one that is for another device that is compatible with yours. Also installing SuperSU, same thing. I don't know if maybe the device is too new and developers haven't had enough time with it or if it's just not dev friendly.

Might have to play the waiting game. Sorry I could not help more, hopefully someone on XDA will have better answers than me.
[Android Software Development] kieran_bondflashy:
well i think it may be that it is fairly new because it was only announced alongside the desire 816 at MWC 2014 and only released around the start of june, which is when i brought it, so i may have to just wait for it to get into the hands of developers :) thanks anyway :good:

Trying to unlock HTC M8 bootloader for T-Mobile.

Throws me this error code.

System.InvalidOperationException: This BackgroundWorker is currently busy and cannot run multiple tasks concurrently.

at WinDroid.MainForm.tokenID_DoWork(Object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)

Device was recognized with status online. Clicked get token ID and this comes up every time. Note comes up with a token ID even with the error and it opens HTC Dev. Token ID is an invalid length.

[Android Software Development] rickballs:
Will this work on windows 8.1?. I like your name. Go Sox. Fellow south sider from the city of wind
[Android Software Development] Rapscallion16:
The error is telling me that the process of getting the token ID tried running multiple times at once, which is odd. If it went through anyway, it should be giving you a valid token length. I'd suggest putting your phone in a different mode. That is, if you tried getting your token ID while in Android, try doing it while in Fastboot, or vice versa.

It will definitely work on Windows 8.1, though this Cubs fan isn't too happy about a traiterous Sox fan using his program. ;)
[Android Software Development] RBarnett09:
So instead of the phone being on as if I were using it while doing this process, boot it into fastboot and see if it gets it that way?

Sent from my SCH-I535
[Android Software Development] Rapscallion16:
Pretty much. When you try to do it while in Android, the toolkit executes two commands. One to reboot to Fastboot, and one to get the token ID. If you do it while you're already in Fastboot, it only does one command, getting the token ID. That will likely reduce any errors since the toolkit's only executing one command as compared to two.

Hiya,

I am trying to root my verizon HTC Incredible 4g - fireball. The phone is recognized by the HTCTK

I run the unlocker and get this message:

Seems fine.

The file downloads and I get this:

I'll be darned if i can find the folder where the log file is.

Twice I have run the program and gotten a success message. The phone goes to this image:

and then promptly goes to this:

Where it will sit until I pull the battery and restart it.

I'm on a Windows 7, 64 bit system. Thanks in advance or your help.
[Android Software Development] lazepr:
The bootloader says unlocked and it installed twrp successfully.

When i try to install the rom in recovery i get error"

Also dunno if this may help but it said succesfully flashed twrp but after when hit ok said theres a log:
[Android Software Development] nate51:
Are you 100% sure the recovery you are flashing is compatible with the ROM?
[Android Software Development] lazepr:
It would not let me flash CWM only option was TWRP. I have a cdma(sprint) htc evo 3d and tried pac man 23.0 and LiquidSmooth and they both give that error.

I see most the roms for the evo 3d say to use 4ext. How would I flash 4ext recovery being on twrp already?
[Android Software Development] nate51:
If you are comfortable with flashing recoveries through a command prompt manually I give that a try. That way you can track what is happening.
[Android Software Development] lazepr:
Alright I got ext4 recovery flashed using the toolkit and once again said successful but then error:

System.InvalidOperationException: This BackgroundWorker is currently busy and cannot run multiple tasks concurrently.
at System.ComponentModel.BackgroundWorker.RunWorkerAs ync(Object argument)
at WinDroid.MainForm.noReturnFastbootCommand_DoWork(O bject sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)

Then when trying to insall roms I get same error with alot more get prop erros and its a little different it says Error in for the zip file instead:

asert failed: getprop("ro.bootloader") == "1.04.2000" || getprop("ro.bootloader") == "1.50.5050" || getprop("ro.bootloader") == "1.40.1100"|| getprop("ro.bootloader") == "1.30.000" || getprop("ro.bootloader") == "1.40.0000" || getprop("ro.bootloader") =
E:Error in /sdcard/LS-KK-v3.2-2014-07-16-shooter.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted

See the last lines are different:

E:Error in /sdcard/LS-KK-v3.2-2014-07-16-shooter.zip
(Status 7)

I know status 7 usually means something is wrong with the zip file no? But I downloaded them multiple times moved off and back on sd card. I know the file is fully downloaded...

Is there a tutorial or something you can guide me to to flash using command prompt?

Edit: I installed a different recovery and this time it says:

Using Legacy property environment for update-binary.
Please Upgrade to latest binary

Then the rest the error i posted above

I've searched quite a bit.. tried many things.. not a HTC guy usually. Always loved their phones but haven't owned one in ages.. anyway I'm on latest ota I got token unlocked bootloader and flashed twrp, flashed supersu and no go. It appears to flash but when I boot no root. I've tried 3 different versions of twrp I've tried latest supersu, tried superuser nada. Always says same thing.. once I flash su, it says no os installed and do I wanna reboot anyway... Then I hit yes and says no su so I hit install su and no su. I will donate 10$ to whoever knows wth is going on. Lol. I'm serious. I wanna get root then s-off rumrunner. That's my plan. Pls help.
[Android Software Development] Flashalot:
Have you tried downloading the supersu zip instead of using twrp also if your on sense 5 or so on it may disable it with the kernel edits HTC made I would just flash a Rom to get the s-off as it would be a lot easy like venom..etc

Says my bootloader has been successfully unlocked but my phone does nothing as far as flashing the .bin file.

Bootloader still says *** LOCKED *** as well.

Any suggestions?

I also tried booting into hboot to see if it would take it from there, but no luck.
[Android Software Development] Mistertac:
Mine did the same, i had forgot to put the bin file onto the root of /C drive on my pc, after i did that everything worked just fine.

You did everything else as well...Installing all drivers...SDK .. etc ??

Thanks OP! Worked on Sprint One Max, TWRP installed and SuperSu.

Any work around for VZW model yet? Firewater will not work anymore so not an option for me. Cannot unlock through HTCDev either. Grrr at Big Red! Lol
[Android Software Development] Tigerstown:
Only way htcdev works if you can supercid an change yours to 11111111 to trick htcdev but you need s-off. I know this cause I java card for s-off on launch day an this is what I did...that is only work around you will find..sorry
[Android Software Development] :
Well that's kind of what I figured but not gonna spend that kind of money or send my phone of to a complete stranger Lol
[Android Software Development] Tigerstown:
I hear ya...he has done my last 3 HTC with zero issues an 3 day turn around but I would use sunshine before java card of course...to bad you can't get firewater to work??
[Android Software Development] :
Ya it seems that the last update fixed that exploit and my phone was factory reset and already upgraded when I got it. They shouldn't do that Lol
[Android Software Development] Tigerstown:
What update you mean?? the Vzw 1.55 from months ago? I got 3 red m8 like 40 days ago when they came out s-off those no problem.. Gave my gunmetal launch day m8 to my daughter....

You ain't lying the shouldn't fix exploits holes. They r assh*les..lol
[Android Software Development] :
Figured there was a patch of some sort cause they did a factory reset the day they shipped it to me. I'm running 155.605.2 and can't get S-off to save my life lol
[Android Software Development] tarund:
Have you looked at SunShine (http://theroot.ninja/) ? Worth the $25 dollars if you craving S-OFF and is a must for you. Currently there is no other solution to S-OFF.
[Android Software Development] :
I have looked into this as well but I heard of a few bricks when sunshine is done. And with absolutely no way to RUU without S-Off not willing to take the risk.
[Android Software Development] Tigerstown:
Just wondering I have been following the sunshine tread an I haven't seen anything out how easy it works with no issues. But if there is those reports then I would be worried to try it too.
[Android Software Development] tarund:
I've tried and it worked flawlessly on mine. I had the latest , official hboot from AT&T which was unlockable by firewater or whatever the other method was. Sunshine will only ask you to pay if the app itself passes your phone to be unlockable, s-off and rooted.

I was already unlocked by htcdev.com and was rooted. I was using a stock ROM and Sunshine worked beautifully for me.

So, you can do the same to your phone and give it shot.

Hmmm if using HTC Dev won't work
[Android Software Development] three2nine:
I'm in the same boat as you are. I have the M7 with 4.4.2 and sense 6.0. I can't get anything to work! I've tried HTCdev, Firewater, rummrunner, Weaksauce, towelroot, WinDroid toolkit and now I've even tried Sunshine and nothing works! I was hesitant at first to shell out $25 bucks, but decided it was worth it. But it still doesn't work! The worst part is that this is my second M7. I had one in the spring that I rooted, S-offed and flashed, but I dropped it and it broke. Now I have a replacement and i can't do anything with it! I am having serious rooting/flashing withdrawal! If anyone knows of a solution I need to have it!
[Android Software Development] three2nine:
Update: I've found out how to get Sunshine to work on the M7! I was searching another Android site, which I won't name, and found another user who was having issues with his M7 and getting root and s-off with Sunshine. Sharpshooter238 gave these directions for using Sunshine:

"Had this problem for while, and you're gunna beat your head off the wall...

Sunshine works ONLY on COMPLETE STOCK models. Did some hard reading all day today at work.

Uninstall Weaksauce

Uninstall Towelroot

Uninstall ALL SuperUser apps

Restart your phone. Wait for it is fully booted. Done preparing SIM, acquire signal, All that good stuff.

Then run Sunshine. Make sure you're over 50% battery life. Pay attention to the app as it does its work, series of questions pop up during its tasks. Pay the $25. Continue to follow its requests, and thats all she wrote, folks."

I've been trying to do this for weeks and it finally worked!! I have s-off, Root and installed TWRP! I am happy again!

WHAT SHOULD I DO?
[Android Software Development] jcase:
Non sense, SunShine has bricked no customer phones. What we brick in development is expected, as we are exploring some unknown factors. The release version of sunshine is 100% safe, and can not cause bricks.

I would like to know where these claims came from.

0 reports.
[Android Software Development] Tigerstown:
I was simply just saying if there is any As she sounded like there was. I definitely haven't seen any in Sunshine's thread. I'll use anything you or your boi posts without a doubt!
[Android Software Development] jcase:
O I know you know, you have been helping out a lot in our thread! Just backing you!

We have bricked a number of devices during research (not just HTCs, we research many devices), but bricks during research happen and are expect. Its a learning process, and we wouldn't have sold SunShine if it had any brick risk.

Reads as if you have a stock recovery (recovery < 3 > )

Download a recovery suitable for your device (TWRP, CWM) the only thing I've seen available on stock recovery is factory reset (only wipes Data!) and reboot.

Once you have flashed in a suitable recovery you can flash your ROM.

I went through all the prior steps without an issue; after this happened the first time, I tried re-installing TWRP and it again informed me the install was successful. Tried pushing the ROM again, got the message the push was successful, but it didn't reboot into recovery. Is there any way I can manually boot into TWRP?

Turn off fastboot,turn off phone,push power and volume down itll boot into bootloader,selwct recovery,push power button. Doesnt sound like twrp is being flashed.

ADB on XP / Linux

Hi,

I had problems installing the AdbDriver.msi on XP. The HTC toolkit tells that they are missing and downloads them. Sometimes it says it can't install them. I try to run the installer from the file system which works. Anyway, the toolkit always tells me the ADB drivers are missing.

I habe ADB running on Linux. If I can't get the drivers to work on my (rarely used) XP, I would like to know which commands with which files I would need to run manually from the ADB shell to get the following done:

Phone and currenct state: HTC Wildfire S, Bootloader unlocked, S-On, no Super-CID, not Root

Desired state: Only root (S-Off not necessary, Custom-ROM or Custom-Recovery not necessary)

Since the Wildfire S is now a supported phone with the toolkit, this should somehow be possible.

Thanx in advance,

i am super desperate to flash KK into my DHD (currently running JB) but i'm so rusty in flashing new recovery, and potentially breaking something in the process if I were to do it because there were just too many information out there (with different ways to do it, and different problems faced by users). I really hope this tool will work, but seeing that the new version still has bugs, I'm still suspending my plans to flash to KK.

really hope the dev solves all the bugs and we can easily use this tool!
[Android Software Development] nate51:
You can still use this application to flash Recoveries. The error many people (including myself) are facing can be bypassed. I forgot how I did it so you may have to play around. I think I just selected ok when it asked to set my phone and I selected the "custom" option for the phones version of Android.

After you set it once it won't ask you again. Once you download a compatible recovery for your phone and the ROM you want to flash you just have to choose "Fastboot Commands" from the application, manually reboot your phone into Fastboot/Bootloader and you can use the option in the application to Permanently Flash a Recovery. it will ask you to select the recovery img file to flash and you're good to go.

I update my recovery (HTC ONE S) this way all the time.

I would not hold my breath for the OP to fix the issue, it's been like this for a long while.

It's not a big deal, you just can't seem to use some of the options from the application.
