I've been trying to figure out how to unlock my phone and I've been unsuccessful. Can someone help me? and Why is unlocking such a secret???
Try reading the forums on this issue
Look under the Kaiser section on this forum Lots of good info YOU just have to look for it. Not a secret as you say. Keep digging you'll find it
Previously posted here but went unnoticed (with so many posts I didn't expect anyone to check regularly). I'm really sorry about this guys I know how much you hate people asking stupid questions but I really cant find the answer to this.
Hey everyone, hope someone can help me out, I've spent hours researching but this is one of those problems where I can't seem to find anyone with the same problem; basically I installed wallet using the old ZIP method, after removing it I found out I had to change files to be able to install the new APK method so I followed those instructions on this thread however I am not getting a weird error saying
"Hardware Not Supported"
"Sorry, this device is not yet supported. We are working too add support. Please check Market later for Updates."
Is anyone else having this problem or am I the only one?

EDIT: Just realized I posted this in the wrong place. Can Mod's move or delete this and I'll create another one in Q&A?
Should I just used the Zip method again, the main reason I wanted to switch is that I'm not sure if that method received updates.
I don't know if this helps however the VERY few (around 2-3 incidents) where I have seen this happen to other Gnex user's all had the LTE version however mine is GSM
Hello. I'm very new here, and I have a problem, and I'm desperate.
I rooted and unlocked my HTC One (M8) on Sunday. The reason? I wanted one stupid boot animation, that's all I wanted. I had no idea what "rooting" it and all that did, all I knew is that I had to do it to get my own animation. Not to say I didn't do my research. I searched lots and lots, reading a lot of articles and everything.
Now, it's rooted and unlocked, using SuperSU and TWRP (I think that's the right info, like I said I'm new to this). I've been trying for two days now to get that stupid animation to work, but to no avail. I've looked at it all.
Now here's my actual problem. Now knowing that I won't get the animation to work (I'm done with trying) I started to panic. I started realizing my warranty is gone, and that I'm dead if anything happens to it. I don't want that. I need it. I need help. It's lame, but I'm scared.
So my question is, is there any way to unroot and lock it? I just want everything back to stock. I want it how I got it. Please help. If there isn't a way, I guess I'll learn from my mistakes. But if there is a way, please help me out. I beg of you. I'd be more than willing to answer questions if you have any pertaining to my problem. Yes, I know I shouldn't have done all this, especially since I have no knowledge of it, but that all doesn't matter now. It's done and I need help. Step by step would be optimal, as, again, I'm new to all of this and don't really understand any of it.
Edit: Not sure if it's vital information, but I used the Sakitech step by step guide on how to root the HTC One (M8). I can't post the link, but it's the first video when you YouTube how to root it.

How to Unroot your HTC One, and Relock the Bootlo…: http://youtu.be/sGdY2ehJMvk
The title says it pretty much all.
Since the bootloader is not actually unlocked, is it still possible to do a nand backup/restore ?
Yes.
Yes. It's already mentioned on the Bump! thread's OP.
Thanks guys, and im sorry for spamming, i didn't notice it in the bump thread, but i did a search before posting this, with little as none results
Hello,
I posted a question this in another thread but it got buried so I thought I would giving it its own thread.
After a successful root, I'm trying to get link2sd working with my M8S but I seem to be hitting a wall with it. It fails to mount at boot, and even when a quick reboot fixes that problem, it fails again when I try to install apps to the external sd.
I presume this is mostly to dow ith not being able to S-Off, would this be correct?
If so, are there any other ways to get around this? I see someone mentioning on another thread that you need to disable System Write Protection, but I can't find a guide to doing this relating to the M8S.
Thanks for any help and advice!
I hate bumping a thread guys, but I'd really appreciate any help or insights.
