check bootloader unlock (non windows tools) - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

hello
im trying to unlock a x10mini. almost all tools are windows tools. everything ok, except that im running osx86. so i have to investigate with linux unlocking methods.
thanks to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1261898 (credits to the_laser and ff0000) i managed to run msm7227 script, this is the output:
Code:

but there is one suspicious line (the one with the mmap error)
i dont want to continue installing a custom kerner until im sure that bootloader is unlocked, but s1tool is not avaliable for nonwindows platforms.,,, i just want to check ib bootloader is unlocked now.
i have read in other threads about power on with the volume button pressed, but nothings happens.
ps: this thread maybe should go in the one i told but i cannot post on it.

[Q] Rooting HTC Desire 2.2 with HBOOT 0.930001

I have a Desire with OS 2.2 last update , it's Arabic android with the following software information :
Android version : 2.2
Baseband version : 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27
Kernel version : 2.6.32.15-gd96f2c0 htc-kernel and18-2 #1
Build number : 2.32.415.3 CL283905 release-keys
Software number 2.32.415.3
Browser version : Webkit 3.1
now my story is I paid lots of money to install the Middle East ROM that come with HTC Desire to Middle East since I bought my mobile from Poland Unlocked , with the last update we received in Middle East about 10 days a go I accepted the new update from 2.1 to 2.2 but some thing wrong happened and my mobile keep restarting so I paid lots of money again to get it back to work , now I decided to root it and learn how to install ROM by my self so i can save money , specially that I am Linux Geek and this things should be easy for me but because it's my only cell phone I have so I can not turn of my phone for long time , that's why I had to pay to fix it fast .
now I tried Unrevoked 3 but it's stuck where " Waiting for root.....( safe to restart if this doesn't work ) i repeat this many many times with Unrevoked 3.21 then Unrevoked 3.22
then I tried to downgrade the phone with this steps :
Linux/Mac Installation
1. Download and extract the utility in a terminal:
$ unzip downgrade23.zip
$ cd desire_downgrade
2. Enable USB debugging on your phone. Ensure 'ask me' is set under 'Connect to PC' setting, and 'charge only'. Plug in your phone.
3. Run the utility.
$ sudo ./downgrade.sh
4. Wait for the process to complete.
If you chose not to downgrade, you can now flash any RUU.
Windows Installation
0. Install HTC Sync (driver required).
1. Extract the downloaded zip file fully (do not just click on the zip file).
2. Enable USB debugging on your phone. Ensure 'ask me' is set under 'Connect to PC' setting with 'charge only'. Plug in your phone.
3. Double-click on the win-down file.
4. Follow instructions and wait.
in both cases I got this error :
error: device not found
although I tried windows " as administrator " and installed the driver many times , and tried Linux " as root " as well and I got the same error , change the USB port many times
i copied the PB99IMG.zip to my SD card and made the goldcard and boot by pushing the power button and Vol down it keep loading and in the end fail .
ANY HELP
copy from ./downgrade.sh output

adb/fastboot/bootloader drivers are not installed properly
its saying device not found which its an adb/fastboot command. even if it was preventing it you should find the device

Actually after 4 attempts i think the script go to the next step , i even tried it without connecting my Desire and script keep taking step after another and keep giving errors till the script finish .
to be sure it's not Driver problem i used Linux to be sure the script will use adb command to find my device and root it , but it did not work , anyway , i will try again with this adb/fastboot and tell you the results
Thank you
I think, in Windows method, you should have uninstall HTC Sycn, after you installed it once for drivers. So, before starting this script, make sure htc sync isn't installed. But idk, just my guesses.
Reported it so that the mods can move it to the right section, you will get more hits there

I did remove HTC sync and to be sure i tried Linux as well to be sure HTC sync will not effect , but still , it Push the PB99IMG.zip and restart for one time then waiting waiting for very long time with no action .
i think this HBOOT 0.93 is very hard to break , or nothing can break it till now , maybe soon some one will find some thing for it .
I had HBOOT 0.93 and rooted with Unrevoked 3.2 (the pulled version) but this also BRICKS your USB with the rest of the stuff, but you get the recovery flashed.
I cried for a few days that i didnt find a solution to unbrick my phone but i got help on irc #rootmydroid
There as a downgrade to 2.1.zip with the stuff as the teppic downgrade does it but its in the flashable zip, and as i had recovery in i used a cardreader to get the files over, rebooted to recovery, flashed the 2.1 downgrade.
Phone booted up as stock 2.1 without any recovery or root, but everything worked! HBOOT was 0.83 after this then i rooted again with an older version of unrevoked, i think it weas 3.14 and rebooted, had root and everything worked, nothing bricked.
I dont want to recommend this procedure but it is a way to do it.
Brick the phone to get recovery to be able to flash the downgrade 2.1 zip to be able to root with an older version of unrevoked.
All this was on a unbranded retail amoled desire with 2.2 OTA update, HBOOT 0.93.
But i had to do this cause my misc was broken, complained about bad blocks and stuff so i couldnt unbrick USB with traditional flash_image misc mtd0.img procedure.

I have read about some other methods to unlock the bootloader but as it states on the htcdev.com website if it will be executeted there is no way back to re-lock the bootloader. I guess there is no option to get the S-OFF without unlocking the bootloader at the moment for 1.29.401.11 software version? Seems like it worked for the previous version of the software, I wished I have ordered my phone few months ealier

the only way you can root it, is by unlocking it from htcdev
just follow simple steps mentioned there...
then flash clockworkmod through fastboot
boot into recovry flash super su
Enjoy
Too bad you can't re-lock it after you do it (htcdev.com method).
Is there any chance it will be possible though, to root the 1.29.401.11 version in a way that you can get back to the stock whenever you want so it would be in the same state as you bought it?
There isn't anyway at the moment. Devs are working on s-off.

HUAWEI Y201 PRO "Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18" not working

Hey guys,
Just get the phone, so nothing is changed except turning on "debugging mode"
It's a HUAWEI Y201 PRO running Android 4.0.3
I like to use some apps as root and therefore I tried Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18
Cause I'm running Ubuntu I configured /etc/udev/rules.d/99-android.rules and added the phone there.
adb is installed and seems to work well
Code:

So there is trouble with mounting it. If I did everything in the right way the script seems not working for HUAWEI Y201 PRO
Maybe someone of you could add the phone.
BTW in the head is still v17 instead of v18
Have fun

[Q] Trying to root. Cannot enter recovery (nor Philz nor TWRP): bootloop

Hi evreyone !
I spent hours trying and reading posts everywhere I could without any success.
I'm trying to follow this rooting guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2634196 (Root and Dual Recovery for Locked Bootloader) and I'm stuck in a bootloop at step 10.

(Note that I'm using Linux... I tried to run the bash script both as a user or as root)
If I continue the rooting process by flashing D5503_14.2.A.1.114_Generic UK.ftf (step 9), I'm stuck at step 10 as I can't boot any recovery. The phone is stuck in a bootloop, and after the green light pressing vol up (ou down) won't do anything...
I tried the whole process (from the begining: docomo) several time and end up everytime with the same result: an error at the end of the recovery installation and a bootloop at step 10 that prevent me from entering any recovery...
I'm out of ideas ! What can I do to manage the installation of the recovery ?

Since I don't have access to any recovery, I don't understand how I can follow this guide (step 5: Go to recovery menu[...]).
What did you meant ?

Read the requirements and it links to how to root, and if you can't or won't unlock your bootloader then you're going to have to jump through hoops.

Of course I red the requirements. The root method described is the same (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2642081) than the one I followed (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2634196). And so the result is going to be the same: being stuck in a bootloop after flashing the recovery form the computer (flashing witch returns an error that I quoted above).
I need help to "recover" the recovery, I mean to be able to properly flash the dual recovery on my phone (whether I wish to unlock the bootloader or not is not the point for now, since I need to root with the locked bootloader in the first place).
It's obvious that there is an error while installing dualrecovery. However I don't know what could cause that error. I advise you to try install it on a fresh ubuntu / Windows client.
Edit: You are executing the install.sh script right? Because at first you select option 3, which is missing in your output. It looks like you are simply executing installrecovery.sh which is of course wrong.
Thanks for your input !

I don't know where the error came from, but I tried several times (about 10) and it end up the same way ! I will try on another machine (Linux too).
