[Q] Is it possible to unlock 1.28? - HTC One X

Hi,
I am trying to unlock my HTC One X via HTCDev.
When I want to get my token from fastboot, I get this message:
c:\fastboot>fastboot oem get_indentifier_token
...
(bootloader) [ERR] Command error !!!
OKAY [ 0.026s]
finished. total time: 0.026s
I've already tried to restart my device a few times, and try it again, but it didn't make any sense.
I've been reading some information about this error, and found that my HBOOT version could be wrong, but I have no knowledge about this at all, and I am also not sure if this could be my problem.
Or could it be because I have 1.28 (stock)?
Does anyone have suggestions for me?
Thanks in advance!

The phone is on the fastboot screen and not the bootloader screen right?

Yes that is right.
I go from bootloader to the fastboot screen.

I could only get an error by issuing the command in the bootloader screen. In fastboot my token was returned ok. Perhaps you may need to flash a 1.26 ruu?
Does your phone connect ok? Do you see your serial number is you do "fastboot devices" ?

Well it installed the 'fastboot' drivers on Windows, so everything seems connecting fine.
But what do you mean with serial and fastboot devices?

Had you previously unlocked when using 1.26?

No, this is my first attempt to unlock.

You weren't actually putting the underscores in the command were you?

Did you install htcsync? That package includes the drivers and might fix your problem.

I wroted the log in my first post.
I wrote this: fastboot oem get_indentifier_token
So yes, I actually putted the underscored in the command, is this wrong? because without underscores it isn't working.

From memory there are no underscores in the command.
So if they are not working, you haven't got the drivers working. Like the post above yours says - download HTC Sync, and install the USB drivers.

This actually solved my problem, thank you!
I've already had an old HTC Sync installed, and I didn't realize it had to be updated.
Thanks!

Yes, there are underscores in the command. The command "fastboot devices" would return your serial number if you had the correct drivers installed and the phone and the pc were connecting properly. Good to see you got it working

Reinstalling stock recovery - help requested

So as will be immediately obvious, I am new to posting on this site and I'm sure the title will explain why. Before I start, I was using (the 'was' will be explained later) a rooted stock ROM and I had not backed it up (the instructions I used forgot to mention it).
The 2.17 HOX OTA update was finally released by three (I'm currently on 1.28) and I hoped that this update would fix several problems I've been having (standard HOX problems like battery life, camera quality, lag, and an ever growing system data). So I was fairly desperate to install this update, but when I tried clockwork recovery told me that it failed, and by using google I discovered that I'm not the only one with this problem.
This where I get stupid. In desperation to install this update I found that SuperSu has an option to full unroot and I hoped that this would reinstall the stock recovery in the process, but now I am left with an unrooted phone with clockwork recovery installed.
If anyone can help me reinstall the stock recovery so I can install this update I'd very much appreciate it. I apologise if I was long winded, I just felt it better to try and explain the whole situation.

I'm not sure what's stopping you from installing the stock recovery?

You need to install Android SDK on the PC you want to do this on.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Update/install everything on it once installed.
Then you can begin.

Re-unlock your bootloader
Flash CWM touch recovery
Flash a custom rom
this will get your phone back up & running whilst giving you the root you were after in the first place.

You can use the same unlock code, use the same bin file, you don't need to generate it all again.
Once unlocked,
Enter fastboot on your phone
Plug into PC (should now say fastboot usb)
Flash CWM touch recovery
CWM touch > http://db.tt/VF9J2eo8
place it in your fastboot folder within Android SDK on your PC
Open command prompt on pc
Default commands are: (first command is different if your pc installation of Android SDK differs from its default location)
CD c:/Android-SDK/platform-tools
fastboot flash recovery CWM.img
---
Then you want to download a custom rom of choice,
You can place the zip files on your phone from within CWM recovery whilst plugged into PC - just select mount usb storage within CWM recovery, and drag them to your phone, then unmount.

If you have the unlock code file still, you dont need to go to HTC Dev - just use the same command you used before.

Q:/unlocked after relocked

Hello everyone
Please help
My problem that I've tried Custom ROM to my device (HTC one v) then became bootloder (unlocked)
I did not like, then returned for (stock ROM) then became boot loder (relocked) and underneath it the word (Security Warning), But went after you install (RUU)
Now we come to the crux of the problem is not to refer to the case of (unlocked) to work Root.
Please help and thank you for all:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying: .

The problem is I can not ("unlock" Bootloder) for Root
This problem got me after installed (stock ROM) to my device via (RUU)
I followed the same steps taken by the first time , but that does not work Because (Bootloader) in the case of (relocked)
And I want to become a case (Bootloader) is (unlocked) again
But how????????????
What do you mean:
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app
yes locking it after the first unlock,it says relocked.for unlocking it again-
place the Unlock_code.bin image file u received from htc the first time in the fastboot/platform-tools folder.
boot ur phone into bootloader.
select fastboot.
connect phone to pc.it should say fastboot usb in red.
now flash the Unlock_code.bin to ur phone using the following command-
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin.
select yes.ur bootloader is unlocked again!
for rooting it again-
flash a recovery first.boot into bootloader then go into fastboot as mentioned above.connect phone to pc.
then place the recoveryname.img in the fastboot/platform-tools folder.flash it using-
fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img.
the recovery is flashed.now,boot into recovery.and then flash this zip in recovery-

your phone is rooted again
Thank you "mihirengg19"
But did not provide anything benefited him
Because I tried this way and did not work, I get the screen (cmd) "Please wait" It does not send anything to the phone
I want a second way to work
That means u don't have proper drivers installed.did u remove the drivers or the SDK kit after unlocking it the 1st time?

Question you sane???
How I Rooted my device before with that same system and the same files without any addition or deletion
I told you that the old way did not work I want another way to "unlock bootloder" to root
Sorry there is no other way to unlock bootloader;the only way is giving u an error,and that error is caused due to improper driver installation and environment setup.
