[Q] HELP Unlock bootloader ???!!! (SOLVED)

Hi
I tried to unlock my Xperia Play boot loader using http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
but when use command (fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version) or (fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY)
I get this
C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\tools>fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version
usage: fastboot [ <option> ] <command>
commands:
update <filename> reflash device from update.zip
flashall 'flash boot' + 'flash system'
flash <partition> [ <filename> ] write a file to a flash partition
erase <partition> erase a flash partition
getvar <variable> display a bootloader variable
boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] download and boot kernel
flash:raw boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] create bootimage and flash it
devices list all connected devices
reboot reboot device normally
reboot-bootloader reboot device into bootloader
options:
-w erase userdata and cache
-s <serial number> specify device serial number
-p <product> specify product name
-c <cmdline> override kernel commandline
I tried two PC !!! Xp and Windows 7 !!!
I need help to unlock boot loader
I have r800i sim locked free and root .
I can see the blue light ...
I install the driver ...Google USB Driver package revision 4
Thank to chevyowner
I update the FAstBoot file and its working now ...
I attach the new fastboot file

go to the folder everything is extracted to and hold left shift and right click and click on open command window here then put
fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version
If you see something do...
fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY
Put the number sony gave you where it says KEY Then it's unlocked

you need a newer version of fastboot from what you posted
this line is missing from options
-i <vendor id> specify a custom USB vendor id

Rather than using that method I would use the lollylost tutorial in development as I found it much more straight forward.
Also make sure you type the commands correctly to the dot as putting a space or such in the wrong place will not work.

[Q] Is CWM Recovery supported on HOX JB 4.1.1 ?

Hi All,
I can't get any version of CWM Recovery working on updated HOX
I'm not flashing it, just doing "fastboot boot imgname" ( this worked for me well before ), and phone hangs with white htc boot screen
I'd like to do backup before i try new Android Revolution HD
After i reset it ( pwr+voldown ), phone boots correctly and works fine, it's just recovery that is not working.
cid HTC_032, hboot 1.36
Any idea ? Am I the only one having this problem ?
Best Regards.
Edit:
fastboot shows this:
downloading 'boot.img'... OKAY
booting... OKAY
it seems like image is being correctly uploaded to memory but not executed

Flash recovery:
fastboot flash recovery imgname

Yes, but i don't want to flash it. i want to boot into cwm recovery without flashing it. This was possible before ota today.
Code:
C:\aaa>fastboot.exe
usage: fastboot [ <option> ] <command>
commands:
update <filename> reflash device from update.zip
flashall flash boot + recovery + system
flash <partition> [ <filename> ] write a file to a flash partition
erase <partition> erase a flash partition
getvar <variable> display a bootloader variable
[U][B] boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] download and boot kernel[/B][/U]
flash:raw boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] create bootimage and flash it
devices list all connected devices
reboot reboot device normally
reboot-bootloader reboot device into bootloader
options:
-w erase userdata and cache
-s <serial number> specify device serial number
-p <product> specify product name
-c <cmdline> override kernel commandline
-i <vendor id> specify a custom USB vendor id

You want to enter the stock or custom recovery ?
Do this
Fastboot erase cache
Helped many people not being able to enter the recovery
And if you want to flash a boot.img its not
Fastboot boot boot.img
But
Fastboot flash boot.img
With fastboot boot boot.img you run the phone once with that specific kernel and with a reboot its undone ! It's more used for test purposes
Your edited tekst in the op says clearly
Downloading boot.img and not recovery.img
Was your command right ?
And btw what's wrong with running the custom recovery and enter from the bootloader or directly from the os . I have a 4-way reboot (also the option to boot into recovery)

Erasing cache didn't help
What's wrong with flashing custom recovery, is that i always try read-only methods before i alter something, even if its useless but working
And I'm genuinely afraid of flashing something that seems to not work
Anyway, this is output from cmd:
Code:
C:\Users\gstawik\Desktop\Android\Flash_boot_17.x_0.1\fastboot>fastboot-windows.e
xe boot ..\..\recovery-clockwork-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
downloading 'boot.img'... OKAY
booting... OKAY
C:\Users\gstawik\Desktop\Android\Flash_boot_17.x_0.1\fastboot>
And it DID work many times before the HTC JellyBean OTA update.
Also, i get it, "fastboot flash recovery imgname" to flash, "fastboot boot imgname" to boot directly, now I'm sad, because i feel like my English sucks :crying:
EDIT:
Other fastboot binary versions, including newest one from SDK, do not solve this problem.

Well then i'm a bit in the dark now,.never "played" with these commands. I just flash the damn thing and enter it

I damn did flash this thing and it's working, damn thanks for help anyway

Put the phone in the bootloader and open a command prompt in the fastboot folder on the pc, then type :

how can i enter fastbootD mode?

To enter in fastbootd you need the newest platforn-tools aka adb and fastboot files
When you got that you reboot to bootloader(fastboot mode) and then use the fastbootd
Just use google tobsearch for fastbootd op7t

That's the latest one.
You should be able to boot fastbootd!
When in fastboot mode run fastboot reboot fastbootd
And your device should reboot in a stock recovery looking environment, that's fastbootd

did it and nothing has changed. the problem remains

have you found a solution to this? i am unable to get onto fastbootd mode
C:\platform-tools>adb reboot fastboot
C:\platform-tools>fastboot getvar is-userspace
is-userspace: no
Finished. Total time: 0.009s

I'm having a similar problem: I can get into fastbootd (chinese/english menu), but I can't send any fastboot commands, it always just says "waiting for device" and 'fastboot devices' shows nothing. If I try to flash things half will fail with "partition not found" because I can only flash in fastboot, not fastbootd. Once flashed I only get bootloader booting message and then it crashes into Qualcomm CrashDump mode and all I can do is wait and then hours later it's magically back to fastbootd but still can't send commands to it, even though OnePlus_USB_Drivers_Setup.exe is installed. Any ideas??

I had issues until used the all in one tool to flash it, then it worked perfect.

where is stock recovery?

can someone explain me the use for fastbootd, in my case i seem to have regular fastboot and fastbootd. in fastbootd i cant execute any commands. its completely new to me and i havent found any proper documentation or tutorials going in depth with it so its all just going over my head.

fastbootd is apart of recovery on many devices.
"The bootloader is expected to load and boot into the recovery image upon seeing boot-fastboot in the BCB command. Recovery then parses the BCB message and switches to fastbootd mode."

If your TWRP is newer then you can still enter fastboot from TWRP, on my device using "adb reboot fastboot" will reboot my device into TWRP then enter some weird TWRP fastboot mode. However windows doesn't seem to detect that this is a device in ADB/Fastboot mode and won't load drivers so if you're on windows you'd have to enter device manager, browse for drivers, "let me pick from all available drivers" find google inc (Assuming you already have those drivers) and select android debugging interface drivers and install. After that your device should work just fine and "getvar is-userspace" should return "yes"
