[Q] htc bootloader failure questions - HTC One X

Ok, I have never been more tempted to throw a phone in all my life. This has me VERY irritated.
I got this htc one x on a hunch, was a good deal, seen great roms on here, thought it was a good idea. I've had nothing but trouble. Heres my deal:
I went to the htcdev site to get the boot loader unlocked. Im no dummy, I've gotten into LOTS of phones. This thing is crazy. I've watched 20 videos, used 3 different computers, NOTHING works. ALWAYS says Error Code: Invalid Bootloader Token Length.
Error Reason: The submitted Token appears to be the wrong length and won't work.
Now this isn't my first rodeo, I read, searched, paused videos made sure I was getting the same info selected, spaces, EVERYTHING that were showing between my screen and the youtube screens. This phone has taken the latest att update. Is this the problem? Has getting into the phone been cut out? Is there another way to get in and load roms? Should I ditch it for a galaxy?

You should be in the att one x forum, this section is for the international one x endeavoru. Search for att Rogers one x Evita

You have the the AT&T Branded HTC One X (Dual Core) ?

I do have the att branded one. I've seen posts about it under these forums. I knew there was different versions, didn't know I was in the wrong place....

networked locked ?

i debranded from orange rom and everything was fine i got an update so i did it now its saying network locked ?
Are you sim-locked to Orange?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
yup but i got the first update and everything was the same now i got a another update and it has gone like this
Try to unlock your sim card and the message should not appear again. You can buy an unlock code directly from Orange or get one online from a reputable sim-unlocking site, even on eBay. It is possible that you flashed a generic rom that included one of the radio versions which causes this network message to appear. This only happens with Orange branded phones for some reason...

I guess the update was 1.21.405.2
Orange phones that have been de-branded seem to either have their WiFi broken or go to SIM Lock. The only way out of it is to buy an unlock code. (See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=693511)
The same happened to me -- although I know it would, and still wanted to de-brand. I just bought a code for £9 from: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300434867258#ht_1893wt_911 popped it in and it worked!
Yeah, it's not ideal but at least you have a de-branded and unlocked phone.
You see what you did there Faddy? You've been told on TWO previous posts SEARCH THE FORUM. In fact the answer to the two obvious questions you asked needed NO SEARCH AT ALL as the answers were recent enough they're still on the front page, but you decided beeing snarky and lazy was better.
Well you would have read peoples issues with the second update and would have avoided this. I have zero sympathy for you.
I have seen many posts by this member... makes you think, could he not have just noted all his queries in one post?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I have to agree with you lot that the OP is lazy and wants spoon fed!
That said, Faddys, if you flash an older radio this should unlock your sim for you again.
I'll let you do the searching to find which one
Edit: When you flash a radio, it goes through 2 reboots. DO NOT interrupt the flash, or remove the battery if you think it's taking too long. This will brick the handset.

It might help others who are following this thread to say how you unlocked it.
Did you reflash an older radio, or did you buy an unclock code?

ATT One X accidental wipe memory with TWRP, stuck on HTC loading screen.

Hello everyone. First of all I am new to the XDA forums. Second of all I am using or was a AT&T HTC One x. I tried to get CM10 on my phone at first and then Viper XL both fails. Go TWRP on successfully through Goo.Manager. Now I have accidently deleted and wiped the system delvik cache and everything. My phone won't even shut off ATM. I used as well Hasoon's All in one tool kit. I just want my phone back and working I don't even care what ROM or even if I have to go back to original software. I just need my phone back. Just please someone post instructions or a YouTube visual. Right now I have purchased a AT&T Z431 GoPhone for temporary use. Best part is I cant even seem to get the micro sim from the one x to fit in it.
Even better....
My parents would kill me if they found out but I am daring. And 18 and have a job and use my own money so I don't care. (Sarcasm.)
Just help
Sincerely: Friendly neighborhood superhero Techinstein.
Start by asking in the correct forum. This forum is for Endeavoru, the quad core Tegra 3, you want the forum for Evita, the dual core Snapgragon.
Definitely don't flash software from here.

Unlocking Help

I just bought one of these off ebay locked to AT&T. I've tried three different unlock services and can't get this phone unlocked. First two said they could not even do it. The last one gave me an unlock code which did not work. They informed me that they get codes directly from the HTC supplier and if that code did not work I would be unable to unlock this phone ever.
I know modding this phone is at its early stages but does anyone think I'll be able to do an unlock similar to the One S in the future? or better yet anyone have a reccomendation for an unlock service. Any advice would be appreciated, I'd hate to resell it over something so basic.

if 2 vendors said they could not unlock it, its a good possible that it cant be unlocked, most vendors get them directly from HTC or At&t,
That method works with this phone partially , i say that cause i can do the strings n -8/ etc etc etc, and i see my IMEI, but i dont see the *Unlock_code*
could be possible i got the phone already unlock and reason why it doesnt show, or they didnt but the unlock code in the phone this time..
it would be nice to see others try and see if they get results, at least if others do see the *unlock code*

I did buy a code from them, they gave it to me, i never used it so i can't say for a fact this will work, but it depends on if its worth $15 to try.

Thanks to all that responded. I'm going to try and give AT&T a call and see if I can get the code from them. I saw in the One X forum some reported success. If that doesn't work then I'll be patient and start getting this phone ready for new roms in development.
I currently have a Galaxy s 4G and in comparison modding this HTC seems more complicated than I remember compared to my Samsung.
I'm new to HTC, so in which order do I need to do these things? Thanks again

Bootloader unlocked. What is the best method to root. I'm pretty sure I saw only one thread and I did not see any feedback in regard to either method. Thanks again
I'm actually curious about the best root method for this phone as well.
Currently the is one in the Android Development section in this sub forum that reads "Depracated".
I just have failed to see an alternative.

I tried to see if I could use the the One S method, like you I don't see the unlock code, but I do see the IMEI. One thing I noticed is that the date 01/26/13 is listed in two places. Do you see that as well? Isn't that the date it becomes illegal to unlock your phone?

Just means the unlock code was in the phone this time, and that don't matter now unlocking phones is legal once again.
I'm not sure I follow, I am still locked to AT&T. There does not appear to be an unlock code within that block like the One S. In regards to the date 01/26/13, I see that in the results when I run the command in terminal emulator. I think its odd that date in particular is included in the block. The legal part of unlocking the phone does not concern me.
Update!!!
After several failed attempts with different unlock services I finally got my phone unlocked. I'm not sure why none of the codes worked but thanks to CID and S-Off threads and also the config.dat files sieempi creates I was able to do it. Thanks for everyone's input!
Glad you got it all figured out.

I was waiting for someone to create their rootkit but Im not going to wait anymore. I will get one put together and post it tomorrow sometime after my new one vx arrives

If anyone is having issues getting the unlock code just contact me. I have done 2 and this one is a keeper. Giving it a test ride. It might be slower than other services but so far 2 of 2.
Service is not free and depending on the kind of user it might be different price. Only pm because this is not sales section.

[Q] Phone app freeze, Gallery stops, other problems AOKP

Good afternoon everyone. Total noob. First post.
About a week ago I found a thread that suggested a different ROM build for some problems I'm having, but I can't find that thread now.
My phone app will freeze the screen and I have to reboot. The phone is working when this happens, as in the call is completed. This is random. Also, I'm getting message after taking several pics in a row that the gallery has stopped working. I have to re-open the camera app. Then, some pics are not shown in the gallery, but they are in the filesystem. Battery life seems a little bad but it's gotten better...it's on par with the 5-yearl-old iPhone 3G I had, I KID! I'm using the phone on the TIGO network in Honduras.
Can anyone suggest a different ROM, or something? I don't know all the terms or what anyone would need so I'll list everything here. Thanks for the help!

Thank you sir, I'll post in the AT&T Rogers forum.

[Q] unlock/root on 4.3?

So I searched this site for quite a while and have not yet found a solution to this problem, so the only thing left to do was to post this.
I have an HTC one running 4.3 on Verizon.
The first problem occurs when I try to post my unlock token to htcdev. When I do I get the "Mid not allowed: error 160".
So to fix this I learned that I need to change my CID to be something like "111111". The weird part is, in order to change my CID I need to be unlocked and have s-off.
You see my problem? I can't unlock because on my CID, and I can't change my CID because I'm not unlocked....
Does anyone have a solution? I'm sorry if the solution is already posted, I just can't find it!
Thanks!
As a side note, I tried to use rumrunner but I got an error. I'm not sure why I got this error but based on some of the things I read I suspect it was due to being on 4.3? Has anyone been able to root/unlock/s-off on 4.3 Verizon?

You simply have not read enough messages in this sub-Forum and its cousins to realize that your version of what is running is not at the moment capable of being upgraded. Search a bit more.

Currently we can't root or get s off in 4.3. Would be nice if Verizon tokens were not blacklisted from HTC dev but what can you do.
Only way to get root right now is if you have a java card and that costs a lot of money. There is a guy on here who has one and will do it for a price if you don't mind paying for it with shipping back and forth. But that's up to you, right now we have to wait and let the devs who came up with rumrunner upgrade the program for the newest software.
Wish there was a way to debloat the stock 4.3 from Verizon without soff because then my one wouldn't be sitting on the table anymore lol.
