Yeah, you're overthinking this one a bit. Just write a formal letter, letter explaining your a piece of *** and that you rooted your phone when you were a kid bc you didn't know any better but your daddy whooped your ass and taught you a lesson and you solemnly swear to never do it again. Just kidding. Write a letter explaining your phone was stolen and when you finally got it back you had found the phone was infected or something so they wont suspect you did anything and you'll be good to go.
My Z was rooted when I sent it back to repair the powerbutton. I got it back for free with the stock-ROM on it. I heard nothing about root and I did not have to pay a penny.
but htc has released the boot loader unlocking tool (root?) so doesn't that mean its okey for htc that we have custom roms running on these.

Yes and no. The thing is, with the unlock bootloader thing they made it so that if you get it they keep track of who you are (in order to properly void your warranty) so if you rooted in a different way to them it's just as "bad"
So i managed to get my IMEI to 0, got it back with peaplearmy's guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801997 but im still stuck on edge.
im trying to use his QCN generator but i keep getting "An error occurred while trying to generate the file" if anyone has had the same issue and got it solve please point me in the right direction. btw reason i posted this here is because i need at least 10 post to be able to post in the development section, will really appreciate any help.

Im guessing you are still rootedmaybe try factory reset.
Or Reflash your rom and see if that fixes.
Use twrp recovery. Noone has lost imei using it that im aware of. Everyone who did was using cwm.

@OP
Are you still stuck on edge? Maybe its bad timing and its actually an issue with tmobiles tower. And have you tried in a different area of town so your connected to a different tower?
This happened to me once and it was killing me for over a day before I called tmobile and they said the tower close to me had storm damage!
Have you tried all three available radios? Try flashing starting with the latest UVALH2 and working your way back to UVALG1 and UVALEM.
If its not on their end you may want to reinstall using odin or grab the update via kies if you haven't already. It'll rewrite the system which could fix it.

i was on the update when i lost the IMEI and had H2 radio, now im back to stock with EM radio, but i will give a try to all 3 radios and the update again and see if that changes anything, thanks man.
No prob. Wish I could be more help. Will let you know if I think of anything else to try.
Good luck!

Oh and earlier I said to start with the latest and work back. Might be better to try opposite first now that I think of it. Prob wouldn't matter, but you never know.

read the 1st 3 post on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801997, specially the 3rd one, if that doesnt get you back on 4g, then contact the op of the thread(peaplearmy) he must likely will help you out.

Hello,
I hope this is the place for this.
My device did the OTA by itself.
the only thing that was changed is software version from E97010l to E97010o. rest of the parameters stay the same.
how do i know if I can still root and unlock my device?
did any one had this update too?
thank you
You can root and unlock... you must have just purchased the phone. The update came out right after the release.

I have the phone for a few days. I had a notification for an update for a few days, I avoided it.
It despaired and after a day it appeared again, and the installed it self.
so am I safe?
how can I block the OTA next time?
Your safe for rooting and unless unlocking. You should be able to disable the ota by removing fota from your apn settings.

how do I do that?
Well, this is a bit of a "crazy" question - I am unsure if I have successfully fixed my Wifi. I used THIS Guide to fix it (used alu foil). But my question is: is this a permanent fix or just a temporary?
I can give my HTC to a service center on friday and maybe they can repair it (if they dont discover that I have opened it before of course )
What do you think? Leave it like it is now? Or get it to HTC?
Thanks
Robin
It should be permanent.
HTC won't fix your phone because it has been opened.
EDIT: I should've thought before posting. I meant permanent. Derp.

if it was opened so that they don't see it, that it was opened then they would repair it...but if there are noticeable things that they know it was opened then yes not
haha read email and thought "Damn it, just temporary". checked thread and thought "wow I am lucky!" )
Thanks Then I dont need to give it to HTC I think.
I do not think it is possible. I have read that the one 4.2.2 and up and the S4 have been patched (aosp source was patched a while ago). Not sure why those motos have not seeing as they are running 4.2.2.... but who knows. If its possible, jcase knows about it so don't bug him. Please correct me if I am wrong.

specifics? I just see him talking about motoX.
I'm only asking because I'm curious, not trying to bug him / you about it. Just wanna read
Pretty sure he tweeted about not using the method on anything besides a Motorola phone.
Well obviously something was a bit easier to get hacked on the Moto phones than the One, but I certainly didnt think the new Moto Line would be rooted that fast either, still cant unlock the bootloader yet right? Ah well, just have to keep waiting
Has anyone said the hell with it and tried it out of curiosity? its reversible via a factory reset it seems if something goes wrong.
