I just tried that but getting the same message, phone still boots into rom and everything but just cant seem to change hboot lol
Use the fastboot method via command prompt.... Had the same problem....
1) Download and install the Android SDK
2) Copy fastboot from platform to platform-tools (Might not be included in the latest sdk releases)
3) Download the hboot and place it in the platform-tools map
4) Open cmd and navigate to the SDK
5) type 'fastboot flash hboot {filenameofhboot}.img
That should work
Please post the CMD output here.
Thanks for your help guys but just did the drastic thing (before your replies) and unrooted/rerooted lol. all fine now
Here is a simple tutorial on how to unlock bootloader and root your Htc One V.
Do this AT YOUR OWN RISK and I don't guarantee it will work on all Htc One V (but successfully done on my Htc One V (PrimoU)).
First: Credits go to:
1) paulobrien for his tools & guide
2) bagofcrap24 for the stolen unlocking bootloader tutorial..
Second: It is good to have official RUU for your Htc One V version. You can find the official RUU HERE(credit : JMZ) & HTCSync in case you something goes wrong and you need to revive your One V.
Or make a nandroid backup after you successfully unlock the bootloader. How ? Read further below. So read fully before you attempt to unlock bootloader and rooting.
Third: the tutorial
Unlocking Your Bootloader
Note: After doing unlocking bootloader, all your data/apps are gone so make a backup to your PC first.
You will need to run the initial setup again.
1. Go Here "http://www.htcdev.com/" and create yourself an account on HTCDEV.
2. Download These Fastboot Files
3. Make a new folder on your C: drive called fastboot.
4. Extract The Zip downloaded in step 2 to the new folder
5. Go Here http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/ and select "All Other Supported Models" and "then begin unlock bootloader"
6. Yes, Tick both Boxes, Proceed
7. Skip up to step 8 as we have all we need for the first 7 steps
8. Power off your phone by holding the power button down for 5-7 seconds (the three keys will flash a few times then it will power off)
9. Hold volume down button, the device will boot to HBOOT
10. Select Fastboot With Volume+or- then press Power once (you'll be in fastboot mode)
11. plug your phone into your PC and open a Command Prompt.
(windows XP - Click Start > Run > type CMD in box then press OK
(Windows 7 - Click Start > type CMD in search box then press Enter)
12. cd to your folder where we put fastboot files cd c:\fastboot
13. type this into your command prompt window fastboot oem get_identifier_token
14. select & copy the text as per step 9 on the HTCDev website
15. paste your identifier token into the box at the bottom and submit
You Will Very Shortly Receive an email from HTCDev with a link to the second part of the instructions and your "Unlock_code.bin" attached
16. download the "Unlock_code.bin" from the email and save it to the same folder that we extracted fastboot files to in step 2
17. type this into your command prompt window fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
18. The Display Will change on your phone, press Vol + to accept and power to confirm.
Congratulations You Have Successfully Unlocked Your Bootloader
UPDATE: Read the IMPORTANT note added below
Rooting with Superboot for GSM Device (Primo U)
1. Download r1-primo-superboot.zip to your computer and extract in any directory.
2. Download the modded boot.superboot.img
3. Replace the boot.superboot.img in the folder that you extracted just now (r1-primo-superboot).
Or download one of the Superboot that relevant to your device HERE
4. Power off your phone by holding the power button down for 5-7 seconds (the three keys will flash a few times then it will power off)
5. Hold volume down button, the device will boot to HBOOT
6. Select Fastboot With Volume+or- then press Power once (you'll be in fastboot mode)
7. Connect your phone to PC
8. Double click ‘install-superboot-windows.bat’
Rooting with Superboot for CDMA Device (Primo C)
1. Download r1-primo-cdma-superboot.zip to your computer and extract in any directory.
2. Power off your phone by holding the power button down for 5-7 seconds (the three keys will flash a few times then it will power off)
3. Hold volume down button, the device will boot to HBOOT
4. Select Fastboot With Volume+or- then press Power once (you'll be in fastboot mode)
5. Connect your phone to PC
6. Double click ‘install-superboot-windows.bat’
Once it complete, the phone will reboot on its own. In app drawer you will see a SuperSU icon, click on it and update SU binary then you are done with rooting your Htc One V.
You can try any app with root access to confirm it is working.

IMPORTANT
As some people forget to make a nandroid backup for their stock ROM, after they successfully unlocked their device,
when a soft brick happens, it will be a big problem to be back on stock when they are unable to find the official RUU for their device.
So make sure, after successfully unlocked your device, don't do anything else yet, flash the CWM recovery and make a nandroid, make nandroid and nandroid of your stock ROM.
Download the Recovery for GSM Device:
CWM 5 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28153112
Direct download link : http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.8.4.5-primou.img
CWM 6 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1871243 (the latest version as at 05 Sep 2012)
Download the Recovery for CDMA Device:
CWM - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1749798
How to make a nandroid backup ?
Once the CWM recovery installed:
Press power once (to go to hboot)
press volume down/up to navigate the menu to RECOVERY, press POWER once
Once in the RECOVERY menu:
click backup and restore
click backup
the backup process is running. It will be a few minutes to complete.
once complete, check whether the backup is successful
click backup and restore
click restore
you will see your backup files, e.g: 2012-06-12.0.13.04
click Go Back or use the back button
click reboot system now to boot your device
once fully booted, mount your sdcard to PC, browse to \clockworkmod\backup and copy the 2012-06-12.0.13.04 folder to your PC as a second backup in case something is wrong with your sdcard.
2012-06-12.0.13.04 is an example only, you will get a different no.
Alternatively, you also can use TWRP recovery:
GSM version - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721749
CDMA version - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764183
Now you are ready to do the rooting process.
Once your device is rooted, you are free to do whatever you want to do with your device, to flash a custom ROM, a custom kernel... whatever.
If soft brick happens and there is no official RUU, a stock nandroid backup may helps you
It doesn't work !!!!
It stucks at -waiting for device- in
11. type this into your command prompt window fastboot oem get_identifier_token
It works perfectly when s off and root. But why cant i gain root access when i already have SU app?
I tried to update the SU but it failed on gaining root access and busybox list.
When i used root uninstaller app, it asked me for adb access which i dunno. What do i have to do?

I don't see why rooting is a development issue. Development is for, well, software development like ROMs and recoveries, etc. Rooting is required to develop, but isn't development per-se.
I am planning on buying this phone.
I just have a few questions.
What is S-off and S-on?
Also, what is RUU?

I just give a basic explanation:
S-Off - security off - you can change everything including hboot partition layout, radio, system, data & recovery
S-On - opposite of the above, all cannot be change (which normally with a locked bootloader)
S-On + unlocked bootloader - you can change only system, data & recovery
RUU - ROM Update Utility - and exe file which consist all the OS files to be installed to the phone.

We have to wait until a developer finds an exploit.
To root, it is mandatory to have S-OFF?
Can I just make the root without the S-OFF?
Im here again:
How can I make S-OFF in my HTC One V, the HTCDev teaches seeks to remove the battery, but the HTC One V has internal battery (you can not remove)?
Someone who has made S-OFF on your HTC One V, could you help me?

You cannot do restore factory settings when you moved some system apks out from nand.
In order to flash a RUU:
1) you need an official RUU for your device.
2) you have htc usb drivers installed on PC.
3) relock the bootloader
in fastboot mode type fastboot oem lock
4) flash RUU
Do you have some kind of note of your actual software version number ?

Hello all,
I'm new here so I hope I posted this in the right place and that this wasn't asked and answered before (I looked and didn't find)
This week I bought a new HTC ONE X from a local store, and I now noticed it does NOT have a "Software updates" option in Settings > About
(from what I saw, this option should have appeared above the "Tell HTC and error reporting" option... )...
If it helps --- from the Settings > About I know that:
My android version is: 4.0.4
My sense version is: 4.1
My software number is: 2.17.401.2
My kernerl is: 2.63.9.4-g090b42e [email protected] #1 SMP FREEMPT
My build number is: 2.17.401.2 CL89015 release-keys
I also installed CID GETTER and it says my CID is: HTC_621
When I explored some more I also saw I have:
ro.aa.mainsku: 401
ro.aa.maincid: HTC_001
ro.build.sense.version: 4.0
ro.cid: HTC_621
I don't really understand much about those things so I don't know which other bits of info might be relevant....
PLEASE - I would really appreciate if someone could help me understand why I don't have the "Software updates" option, and how can I update the device to the latest android etc.?
Thanks in advance
Re: [Q] Missing "software updates" option in settings>about
I bet you are running a custom rom and with that you can't update ! You need to get back to stock
Hold the power button and the volume - button togheter for a lifetime and wait as ling as it takes for the phone to boot into the bootloader.
I bet you find this
Bootloader : unlocked
Thanks

Hi Mr Hofs,
Thanks for replying so quickly ----
Yes, you are right, I went into the bootloader thing and it says UNLOCKED
and then:
ENDAVOURU PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.95.0000
CPLD-NONE
MICROP-None
Radio-NONE
eMMC-bootmode: disabled
CPU-bootmode: disabled
HW Secure boot: enabled
What does it mean? How can I verify that this is indeed a custom rom?
Needless to say, I'm not the one who unlocked it so.....
Should I complain to the store I bought it from?
Does it mean my warranty is void??
And how can I restore it to "stock"?
Thanks!
Re: [Q] Missing "software updates" option in settings>about
Hell yeah its a second hand phone !!! As they sold it to you as new.....its not !!!

I don't think it's second hand ---
The phone looked brand new, came into the original HTC Box, and had the protective htc cover they come with...
I also asked and confirmed with them that the phone is new and not refurbished...
I think they probably just replaced the rom (I know that some Israeli importers/stores do that, usually to enable hebrew on older phones etc.)
Is there a simple way to restore it to stock rom without the help of the store?
Re: [Q] Missing "software updates" option in settings>about
Are u kidding me wow !
Well we might restore it to stock. You need to know about fastboot commands and you need the fastboot files on the pc
Nee is a tut on fastboot commands
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1605720
Basically it comes to this, you need to put the phone in the bootloader and see a res text "fastboot usb" then you have to open a commandprompt inside the folder on the pc where your fastboot files are. There you type
Fastboot devices
If the serial pops up you are good to go

Okey you can do this :
1: download this RUU
http://androidfiles.org/ruu/securek...Radio_1.1204.104.14_release_259284_signed.exe
2: charge the battery to 100%
3: put the phone in the fastboot usb mode
4: type this command in the commandprompt
Fastboot oem lock
It will relock the bootloader to be able to install the ruu
5: keep the phone in the fastboot usb mode after locking the bootloader
6: right click on the ruu.exe and execute with admin rights
This will flash the phone back to 100% stock, when the ruu flashed successfully you boot the phone and go into
Settings - about - softwareupdates and update the phone with all the updates you can get. That should het you to JB !

Ok, thanks for the detailed explanation :good: -- I just have a few more questions:
1. Is there a way to be sure this is the right file? Could it be that my version is wrong or something? or is it unmodifiable?
2. The file seems to match version: 1.29.709.7 and i have 1.29.709.12.... is this okay..? I read somewhere you should not use lower numbers, only higher or identical...
3. Would this wipe the data of the phone (photos , installed programs, etc.) -- or just replace the underlying operating-system?
I am charging my battery now....

1 yes its the right file .... 1.29.709 has to match (if it fails i have more options )
2 see number 1
3 it wipes EVERYTHING ....... So make a backup of the sdcard as well just to be sure (i hear different things about the sdcard so lets be safe and back it up)
if your main version was 2.17.709 you could not use a 1.29.709 ruu then you need at least a 2.17.709 ruu or higher. We cant downgrade but we can use the same base number or a higher one. Because we have s-on devices. If we had s-off we would be able to flash anything we like.....

Things that you forgot to mention is BOOT LOADER,is it locked Or unlocked?
it will written above your phone's Hboot -2.00.0027.
If it's unlocked that try locking it back and then run stock RUU the one you were using it in last working stat.
Thanks.
How would i get to know thats its unlocked
Because its not mentioned any where on screen. what I can tell u i its was working every sim card was working on this phone .
I am new to this please if possible explain me in detail :good:

It's really easy.....as you may check that i am also new to xda infect i registered on December last month,ever since then i get to know things which i didn't know before so don't worry it will take time but you will know step by step.
As you have mention about S-On and some other detail by pressing volume down and power button.,the same way do it.
first phone should be switched off,and press volume down and power button together,once you see white background with several information regarding your phone's current status.
HBOOT
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
and some others but in that screen look for top on the list it should written locked or relocked,if not then you have to lock it back in order to run any stock RUU.
as you said that any sim card works which means that your phone is unlocked to network. but for now if there is no other issue in your phone than you have to relock the bootloader in order to run STOCK RUU.
without locked boot loader you won't be able to install RUU.
If it stats ***Locked*** than just flash any RUU by double clicking on it.,if not than just follow this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2133336

you can try flashing RUU with the latest or same version as you know that you already using it..but firstly you must find the correct RUU that are suitable with you CIDnum (country ID) of you phone...or else you might using a goldcard method
to check the CIDnum of your phone..your pc must have the latest HTC driver (you can find it here ), and your must already had ADB/ SDK to running android debugging bridge (you can download it minimal ADB from here or download full SDK from here )
after that get your phone to the bootloader n select FASTBOOT then connecting your phone with your pc..then open cmd and change source to your ADB / SDK folder..then typing "fastboot devices" (this is to see connected of your phone to pc)
if success connected..the output will prompt it of your phone serial number..after that you can continue to typing "fastboot getvar all"
then see your CIDnum in the line of output "INFOCID.....XXXX"
hope this help..

yap..just wanna correct misspelled..
because..you already suggest it to OP to relock his phone bootloader..that's mean you already assume that his bootloader is already unlocked just not show in the top of bootloader..
because of that...i just wanna correct that..because what i know until now is.. actually the bootloader of Ace..by default is indeed nothing showing state locked or unlocked on the top of bootloader.. that's why i suggest him to flashing RUU again..no needed to relock bootloader first..
i just wanna correct miss direction to the OP....nothing else..
anyway..i'm really glad and appreciated to see you wanna trying helping all people in this forum..mate

RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HKCSL_CHT_3.13.832.4_R_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_234218_signed.exe
or
RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_TWM_TW_3.16.921.2_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_247385_signed.exe
you can make a goldcard with a tool from here..

you don't need HTC sync to do that...just download SDK from here.. and placed in C:\ drive on your pc.
then you continued to step :
1. download your hboot update from here..
2. after you already download your hboot.. running that exe file until next to second step..now you must hold at this point..don't close this..let open
3. open explorer then search the rom.zip file under C:\Users\"your username"\AppData\Local\Temp\ "you will see a lot of folder like this {5917E83E-C23B-491F-9D62-6AB7E6E87DC6} and you must try looking one by one by open it and see there is a file dotnetinstaller.exe inside that folder and had a folder like before too {5917E83E-C23B-491F-9D62-6AB7E6E87DC6}..then open it again that folder..now you can find the rom.zip file in there"
4. copying that rom.zip file to your SDK under platform-tools folder..and turn on your phone again with pressing and hold volume down+power until get inside bootloader then select FASTBOOT mode
5. open cmd change source to your SDK / platform-tools folder then typing "fastboot devices" enter to checking first that your phone is already connected properly
5. typing "fastboot oem rebootRUU" enter
6. "fastboot flash zip rom.zip" enter and wait until finish..
7. now if succes you can continued to the step unlocking your bootloader just following instruction from www.htcdev.com
8. if already success unlock your bootloader..then you can continued installing custom recovery like 4ext recovery (just try searching it on google how to do that)
9. download custom rom..then installing
10. done..enjoy it
all command without quote
hope this can help..

did you already see the screen white HTC text with black background after execute command "fastboot oem rebootRUU" ?
just try boot to bootloader again...then select FASTBOOT mode..connect it again with your pc..disable it all antivirus..then try running PD9810000_Ace_Sense30_S_hboot_2.00.0029.exe and following the step until finish..

IF that's step above does'n success too..then you can try it..
rename it the rom.zip file that you are already tried to flashing it from fastboot command previously (rename it to PD98IMG.zip)..then copied the file to the root of your sd card..this mean copied just inside your sd card not inside any folder..just using card reader to copied that file..then put it in back again in your phone..then boot to bootloader again with pressing volume down+power then wait until bootloader check the zip file then ask you to update it..
then confirm it with volume UP..wait until finish and ask you to reboot the phone with pressing power button..

Hi
I have an M8 running Android Revolution HD 22.1, build number 3.28.401.9 CL389838 release-keys
How do I update this to lollipop, whilst S-ON? I don't mind if its official lollipop or via a ROM. Is there a way to go back to stock and then do an OTA or something?
Thank you.
Look....all you need and more !

Cheers - I've read it but I'm still not sure on what to do. The guide to return to stock was S-OFF only, and I have a different CID due to importing my phone from Singapore (HTC__044)
Download RUU_M8_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_hTC_Asia_WWE_4.19.707.2 here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56140330&postcount=1
This will update your device to the latest lollipop 4.19.707.2 (CID HTC__044)
1. put your device in bootloader/fastboot mode and connect to PC
2. run command to relock bootloader
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
3. Right click the RUU exe that you downloaded, select "run as administrator" .. wait for it to run, later there is a dialog box, accept, next, next, update, blablabla until it finish and your device rebooted... done.
Note : this will wipe everything on your internal storage. Make a backup of important files before you proceed.

Cheers - so literally all I gotta do is lock the boot loader and then run the RUU from my laptop? All this whilst rooted, having custom recovery and on a custom ROM?
Thanks
Yes ... RUU will wipe everything on your phone and replace with all new images ... so you have your phone back as the first day you take it out from box except now updated to the latest software version.
what if my CID is 621 S-ON?
