[Desire General] Pyr0x64:
FFS, couldn't you be bothered reading a couple of posts?

the answer has already been posted in this very thread

Again... No, 720p is not possible on the HTC Desire yet until we get an updated radio
[Desire General] Dredwerker:
Its not exactly an answer because no one has mentioned updated from what to what. I have updated my radio when I upgraded to Froyo is that new enough or does it require an even newer radio.
[Desire General] hensk:
10ks m8,quick & exact answer
[Desire General] Pyr0x64:
well considering the fact that we cannot use 720p on any of the current radios available...

i would say it's a definite strong possibility that we might need an even newer radio, yes :p
[Desire General] Dredwerker:
Ho ho very funny :)

Its quite hard to pick all this up I worked on something for a week(so I wasnt playing) and defrost went from 0.9 to 1.3. Some people dont spend all day on here so be gentle peeps.

You read on 1 link that the N1 has 720p then its not possible on the N1 or the desire and we just need a radio update but is the radio similar enough that there might have been a radio brought out that might be compatible. If you follow these threads other than all the time sometimes its hard to keep up even with searching.

But that all said thanks for the clarification guys.

Is it just me, but unless you use a password or gesture to secure your phone, then the lockscreen is redundant. Is there a Metamorph or .apk to remove it? I mean, tapping the top power button to wake, and THEN swiping the screen is super redundant

is there anyone out there found out if its possible in any way to unroot and relock the bootloader???

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nexusdue:
And .... [drumroll] .... that does not answer the question.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
I can. Not many others with the same luck though.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuff:
jesus. Nobody gave this poor guy a direct answer?

Very few, and I mean probably like 5% of all nexus one's can relock their bootloader. It's some special Holiday edition or something.

But as of right now, no you can't relock it. :(
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xghostyxjokerx:
thank you!!! at least some help and some dont...i thought this was a q/a section..thanks again!:)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Penguissimo:
Just out of curiousity, when you say "holiday edition", are you referring to the N1s given to Google employees before the phone was released, or is this just a clever way of acknowledging the good luck of those who got a re-lockable phone?

If the latter, is there any pattern by which one can recognise these phones (serial number, manufacturing date/facility, etc.), or is it just luck of the draw?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crawler9:
Ironically, that leads to the search results where I found the link to this page. lol

I'm not 100% sure but I believe "Holiday edition" refers to the special versions of the phones that have the battery cover with a QR code in it, as said QR code leads to a special holiday game when scanned on the Nexus One. Serial number can't be used to determine which Nexii (Nexuses?) can be relocked and which can't. The easiest way to tell if a Nexus One can be relocked is to power it off, hold the track ball, and power it on again. This boots into the bootloader where you will see on the second line something like "NEXUSONE PVT SHIP S-ON." 'S-ON' means that the bootloader can not be relocked while 'S-OFF' indicates a device can be easily be relocked by running a simple fastboot command from your computer, ''fastboot oem lock." I hope this answers your question.

I know the Nexus One has already been successfully rooted without unlocking the bootloader, but I still hope we can figure out a method for relocking the bootloader. I don't mean to scam warranty, I just hate that awful lock icon on the boot screen.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nexusdue:
Shouldn't it be possible to simply flash the SPL from a re-lockable phone onto a phone that (before) couldn't?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crawler9:
Unfortunately, no this is not possible. Trying to do so would most likely lead to a bricked handset as the retail devices have a 512k spl and the engineering spl from holiday phones is 768k in size.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomedor:
Is this working?

http://www.machackpc.com/headline/restore-your-nexus-one-to-its-original-shipping-image/

Will it brick the phone ?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crawler9:
It will not brick the phone. It will work fine for what it's meant to do. Here's a quote from the page

Note that this does not re-lock the device which is what this thread is about. As of right now, there is no way that has been made publicly visible to relock the bootloader of an unlocked S-ON Nexus One. Maybe in the future there will be a way. I hope so, but for now, we're stuck. The method from the link can be used only to restore your phone to the stock ROM, so that you can once again receive OTA updates. It will take away your root priveleges, which I'd assume is the reason you've unlocked your device in the first place. So unless you're tired of being in control of your device, it's pointless.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Penguissimo:
It does, thanks :) Very informative!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
I have a shipping S-OFF SPL, but apparently nothing can be done with it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martin0285:
would be nice to see team unrevoked work on this......
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crawler9:
You can relock yours, but no, I don't think your SPL can do much good for those of us looking for a method to rolock ours.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Does seem that way, unfortunate really.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bohemus:
re-lock?

Sorry to re-open a somewhat old thread, but i really wanted to pick someone's brain about this.

When typing "fastboot oem lock" a message is retuned about first disabling security.

"fastboot getvar security" returns "security: on"

My assumption is that the "fastboot oem task(correct task number)" can be run to turn off security so that the "fastboot oem lock" command can be issued.

is this oversimplifying the issue at hand? Thoughts?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grandmasterethel:
This might be a bit of a stupid question, but I feel like someone should ask it.

I'm no expert, but from what I've read on xda, the reason we cannot flash all of the re-lockable SPLs onto our shipping Nexii is because they will not fit, and could potentially brick the phone. Wouldn't it be possible though, now that we can root without touching the bootloader, to dump a locked shipping bootloader, and flash that onto an unlocked device (I imagine all the devs interested in this have already thought about this method though).

Correct me if I'm wrong.

I have rooted my phone and installed custom recovery without touching my bootloader, so if i have by some stroke of luck stumbled on something then I would love to help out in any way I can.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GldRush98:
We have had a locked bootloader since the N1 came out pretty much. It does no one any good.

Why do people have such hard-on's for relocking the bootloader?? You gain nothing from it, and it's been proven HTC will still warranty hardware defects with an unlocked bootloader. So, I am forced to ask WHY BOTHER??
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grandmasterethel:
My apologies then. I must have fetched the wrong stick altogether.

I have no vested interest per-se in re-locking the bootloader myself - as I have said, I rooted without unlocking it, however I just thought I might try and help out the community if possible, by asking some questions, and maybe getting sensible responses. Obviously that is too much to ask. A simple no would have sufficed, rather than being deliberately obtuse about the issue.

I'm sorry I asked.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bullyfrog:
That's tough for the rest of us. Its only HTC in the US that honors the warranty. The one in my country demands we buy a motherboard from them. Really wish the efford to relock the bootloader does not cease leaving the rest of us to fend for ourselves..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SplitSnake:
so it has been proven that HTC will still accompany the warranty even if the bootloader has been unlocked? could you point me to where this has been proven? my camera has a hardware failure, and i would love to send it back for repairs.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bohemus:
Seems like you could be on to something with this idea. Would like to find out more on how to do this.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Doesn't seem to be a way that you can dump the SPL, I've been looking.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuntstubble:
Myself and Paul from Modaco managed to get access to the radio via adb shell, with superboot and tickminicom.

We tried some of the AT commands to disable security, however it only causes a reboot.

I personally think it is still worth looking at doing (relocking), it is all very well people say why bother, but also why not. I personally would prefer to be able to relock. Does not matter as to why, I just would prefer to.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
I agree. Why do we do half of the things we do on XDA... because we can.

Still an all, my original nexus had a faulty headphone jack and a leaky screen seal. It was unlocked. HTC swapped mine out no problems.

Still. My original Nexus was unlocked and it has that butt ugly lock during bootup. I didn't like that. Luckily now you can root and flash without unlocking, which is what I did to my new one. But I would have liked to lock back up the bootloader just to get rid of the icon. Plus it gives you peace of mind that you can simply flash a stock image on it and be COMPLETELY stock.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaenizzo:
Im with Tmobile

If i wanted to use my warranty i can just send it in to tmobile and get a new one or to google or htc.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teddyonair:
any updates to this??
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xculliber:
What are the chances you'll reveal the method?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
I have an S-OFF bootloader, my method is:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Android SDK\Tools\>fastboot oem lock
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JHaste:
asshole lol
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cparekh:
Just in case anyone didn't follow this, Rusty didn't do anything to make his bootloader re-lockable. His bootloader shipped with the security off, which some of the phones did. It's not useful to others though, at this point.

He's not being an arse.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr.sweet:
Whats about this one Ive found? Do you think its working for Nexus One too (as its very similar to Desire?)

http://www.smartphonegurus.com/foru...ire-full-pictorial-installation-instructions/
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j.bruha:
Hate to bring this thread back up again, but I have just acquired a Holiday Nexus One (with Andy waving the QR flag on the back) that does not have an unlocked bootloader as of yet (there's no padlock on the initial boot).

In Fastboot, the top line reads S-ON, though when I run "fastboot oem lock", the message returned is "...INFOdevice was already locked!"

Having read through this thread, it seems that those whom have run the same command get a different result with a locked bootloader, but I wanted to make absolutely sure before I go past the point of no return and can't relock it again if it turns out the command won't work.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolle3k:
The bootloader can be locked again, however you will have to flash a hacked hboot which enforces S-OFF. Once you relocked it, you can flash the original bootloader back.

I am not sure if/how the AlphaRev guys bypassed the signature check, but it's possible to relock it that way.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Before writing that, you should note to yourself that AlphaRev team worked on Desire, and this is Nexus forum and Nexus One we're talking about. Their bootloaders are different, and you're welcome to brick your own phone by flashing Desire HBOOT - or post a visible proof that you attempted it and it worked - but since it wasn't done, refraining from suggesting things that brick phones to others.

Moreover, AlphaRev HBOOT doesn't tamper with @secuflag. You should read their own site, which clearly states - their HBOOT ignores the @secuflag, but it's still there and unchanged! They can't change the flag state, since it's in the radio. Especially because Desire doesn't have the same flag as Nexus, lacking the option to unlock. So once you unlock Nexus, the flag is changed and AlphaRev HBOOT won't bring it back.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brettbellaire:
I remember someone saying that if you send your phone into HTC for a warranty service and you are unlocked, they will probably re-lock it.... Is that true, has that happened to anyone?? That would mean it's possible.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
It's possible in that respect, yes. HTC can set phones to S-OFF which allows the bootloader to be locked again.

In my case, they left S-OFF set on my phone so I can lock &unlock as and when I feel like it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolle3k:
I don't suggest flashing AlphaRev's HBOOT. I am just suggesting that we could most likely edit the HBOOT on our own and remove all security checks so we have access to all commands including oem lock.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolle3k:
Yea my theory is correct. You can lock the bootloader again by either disabling the S-OFF check or by having some exploit that lets you execute shellcode (just call into setLockMode).

The routine in IDA 6 demo

Already prepared a hacked hboot, just need to find a way to flash it. Then we can have locked bootloaderz again! \o/
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Since you must have unlocked bootloader to try, the way is very simple:

Reboot to bootloader

fastboot flash misc hacked_hboot.img

or

fastboot flash hboot hacked_hboot.img

Both do the same.

Waiting for results - curiosity :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolle3k:
C:\Users\matt\Desktop>fastboot flash misc rolle-hboot_8x50_0.33.0012_091210.nb0

sending 'misc' (512 KB)... OKAY [ 0.129s]

writing 'misc'... INFOsignature checking...

FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)

finished. total time: 0.274s

Doesn't work unless someone gives me keys to sign it :p
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
How about using flash_image via an adb shell? Would that not work as well?

flash_image misc rolle-hboot_8x50_0.33.0012_091210.nb0
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolle3k:
I don't think that would work. Misc partition looks different than a hboot image.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
The Nexus One only has 6 partitions: misc (0), recovery (1), boot (2), system (3), cache (4), and userdata (5). The misc partition is the HBOOT, no? (It was indeed the one you were trying to flash when you used the "fastboot flash misc" command a few posts above.) Fastboot verfies the image before flashing, while I am not sure flash_image does, so it may work.

EDIT: But you could also end up with a brick...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolle3k:
I dumped the current misc section using "cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > /sdcard/misc.img" - but it looks nowhere similar to a hboot image. The first 180 bytes are some strings, the rest of the file is filled with zeros and 0xFF's.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Unlocked bootloader doesn't check signatures, at least not for system and data partitions. Probably still does for hboot and radio.

Using flash_image would have the same results as using fastboot flash.

The dump of misc partition doesn't have to be real. Try to dump radio, see what you get - I don't think you get anything.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rolle3k:
radio and hboot mtd's arent exposed. We're out of luck until someone finds an exploit which lets us flash custom hboots on the nexus one.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
They aren't exposed for read, but you can flash them all day long - otherwise you wouldn't be able to upgrade to non-Google-default radio 5.12.

If you worked on an HBOOT dump from one of the stock ROMs - you can try to flash the misc partition just the way you would flash radio w/o unlocked fastboot, using flash_image.

(And I'm still certain that unlocked bootloader allows you to flash any hboot).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
For some reason, I can't find a way to get VC to say the numbers when using the dialer instead of just unsing tones. I could do this on my Incite and prefer the positive confirmation of number pressed. Any ideas? Thanks.;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Aaron McCarthy:
settings\personal\voice command

in there you can change the setting.

I believe if you press the 'phone' option so its highlighted then press the options button on the right you'll be brought to a new window where you can change how it responds. I know it does what you want for me when I call and I have "confirm when calling by name" and "confirm when dialing by number" selected.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
@Aaron, I have all three items checked, but still only get tone dialing.:confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Aaron McCarthy:
wait... are you talking about when you press the number pad on the phone screen? Cause if so then yes, voice command wouldn't speak the numbers as you press each key. What voice command does is allow you to SPEAK to your phone and it will do what you say...

It's usually mapped to the phone/answer button on your phone (far left button on the bottom front of your phone) Press it but hold it down.... then say "call joe" or whoever... or "dial 3497894023"

Then it will confirm by saying "dial 3497894023?" And you have to say "yes"... and then it will dial.

There's a ton of commands: what time is it, whats my next appointment, whats the battery status, next track, play album etc etc. Just to name a few :P

As far as saying the number you pressed as tones when you press the actual number pad. That I don't get. I do remember I had a cab a LONG time ago when I had the touch pro that did it but, really, if you're pressing the number pad odds are you are looking at the phone right. I didn't keep it all too long. Especially when you can just press the call button as a long press and tell the phone what to dial.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Aaron McCarthy:
This is what bordom gets you and doing a little digging.... :)

Talking Dialpad

as I was talking about above; all this does is change it so your tones aren't.... tones.. but when you push them it will say the number instead. I would still go with using voice command though :)

according to some posts here it will work on the TP2
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
Well, I don't know what changed, but on my LG Incite I would press a number in the dialer and it would say it aloud with a nice female voice instead of a tone. It only did this for dialing since you need tones in-call to access things like voicemail or automated system prompts. IIRC, it was a choice in VC setup. I'm sure it was not a mod I made to the phone. Don't understand why M$ would take out such a needed feature for people like me with bad eyesight who prefer the voice confirmation of a dialed number. Tones are absolutely useless. :mad:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Aaron McCarthy:
I posted a link to a thread regarding voice tone instead of the regular numeric tone you hear right above.... did you try that yet cause that seems to be what you are after? You didn't mention anything about it in your post so I wasn't sure but that's clearly what you're looking for.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
Yeah, I looked at your links (thanks). Those are for an add-on program. This was a feature built-into Voice Command on WinMo 6.1 and can probably be enabled via a simple regedit since there is no longer a front end selection choice for it in VC.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Aaron McCarthy:
not an add on program at all... you just download the "talkingkeys.cab" run it.. and it changes all the 'tones' of your numberic dial pad to voices saying the numbers...

takes all of 2 seconds to do.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lufc:
Just tried it on me TP2 and it works fine very clear thanks Aaron:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
OK, I tried it. No joy.:( You have to hold the key for the duration of the sound file or it cuts off. This is not what I had with my Incite. All you had to do was press a button on the dialer and a nice, female voice would say the number. This was built into that version of VC on WinMo 6.1, it was not something I added on. I can't understand why M$ would have taken this out in 6.5 or why HTC/AT$T would have defeated it in the Tilt 2 ROM. Either way, it sucks.:mad:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Aaron McCarthy:
It wasn't voice command or Microsoft that did that but something specific to that phone.... The dialer's for different phones are just that............. different!

Voice command is used for you giving commands to your phone or reading out appointments or incoming callers etc. It had nothing to do with the voice tone in your dial pad.

What you are saying is like asking my my Vogue didn't have a slide out keyboard, or a better resolution screen, or wifi. How unfair and stupid of HTC to not have put that in there. Again... you are comparing an LG phone here with an HTC phone.. different hardware, different OS's. different.... phones :P I'd be more disappointed about loosing the headphone jack then I would be about having a standard keypad tone wen switching from the Incite.

Can't really compare apples and oranges in this case I would say. If that cab I found you doesn't cut it I'm sorry but it's likely the best you're going to find. There might be some registry hacks you can do to make it so it will say the complete number just from a quick tap but I myself try and stay from dinking around with the registry. I would still say voice command trumps anything that a voice tone numeric pad would do... I either use the contact page in sense or just use voice command to dial a number I want. Seems to work just fine AND easier!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Miami_Son:
OK, if you're saying it was a function of the LG dialer, that makes more sense. It did use a completely different voice from VC.

I appreciate the link to the program you gave me. I'll probably end up using it. Would be nice if the instructions were clearer on how to install it and where to put the contents of the zip archive. Thanks again.;)
