I'm unable to unlock the bootloader for the HTC Desire HD.
A friend give me a Desire HD stuck in bootloader. When I try to unlock the bootloader using fastboot and the Unlock_code.bin file everything seems to works fine but when the phone reboots it stills saying locked. Just to chek I use the fastboot oem lock command and returns (bootloader) Device was already locked!
I dont know whats the cause of this or how to solve it.
Anyone has any ideas?
Google is your friend
To unlock it, you have to visit htcdev

If you keep locking and unlocking and running commands via adb, you are gonna mess up your device. Go to HTC.com and search unlock bootloader or htcdev. Follow instructions there. Good luck.
Actually I did go to htcdev.com and follow their instructions, thats how I get the Unlock_code.bin file. Running random ad comamos was never an option.
I started to think that this might be a hardware issue but I have no idea how to proove it
Can u boot into bootloader?

I would suggest u look up aahk2 on xda. Follow those directions. That will help unlock, root s off and flash a custom recovery.

What is your hboot version?If you have hboot 2.00.27 or lower maybe you have not an unlock option.You have to upgrade your hboot to 2.00.29 and then you should be able to unlock it thought htc_dev.
Check how to upgrade your bootloader here.
When you are in your bootloader give the command fastboot getvar all and copy-paste here what it prints.(except your IMEI and serialno).

Hi,
I was upgrading my HBOOT from 1.16 to 1.36 which i successfully did. So now my phone is relocked and while I'm trying to unlock my bootloader I see that htcdev.com is down!!!
So now I'm stuck with a locked bootloader and no custom recovery to flash new roms. Any suggestions other than waiting for htcdev.com to come back online?
Many thanks!
R: [Q] Stuck because www.htcdev.com is down!!

In case the thread markb63 posted doesn't work, and you have to search through your email, here's the email account from HTCDev:
TC-Unlockbootloader[at]htc.com (replace [at] with @)
htcdev is up again, try now
Unstable.
The site has been up and down for the last few days. i had some issues on friday but by sat all was in order.
Hi guys,
I bought an HOX for parts/repair, my objective is repair this one because is in great condition, but i get a big problem.... the bootloader is relocked and i don't have the unlock_code.bin from htcdev to unlock the bootloader again! Did you guays have any method to unlock it without unlock code from HTCdev, or the only way to do that is getting the unlock_code.bin?

Just get a new unlock code from htcdev. You can request them more than once.

Nice view herbie13!!!
Thanks mate!!!!
If you are S-Off it is possible . Take a look at my signature. I have a tutorial on it. Although, keep in mind our partitions are different I would assume so minor changes would be needed in the process. Good luck.

If your device isn't coming on display wise, it might be a hardware issue.

need adb? and thanks for your reply..
Yes. But to run fastboot, u need fastboot drivers. Download min adb and fadtboot program.
---------- Post added at 10:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 PM ----------
Once u have that installed..turn off phone and hold vol down with power(make sure phone is plugged in PC) open cmd window via min adb and type fastboot devices. Should see a number...then type fastboot getvar all to get bootloader details.

You are gonna have to access your device via adb and or fb to use it. I provided a link. Plz read up on SDK as well.

HI all,
I have been trying to root my HTC One M9 mobile which is branded under Vodafone. I have been scouring the internet for anything that will help, but to no avail - I have run into a couple of problems:
I don't have the Fastboot option when I go to Settings > Battery on this device
When attempting to load the Bootloader, I get the S-ON error.
I have tried using the HTCDev and when I try to do the initial fastboot i get what is shown in the attachments.
The phone is currently running Android OS 5.02... and I also had a look at this link but couldn't make heads or tails on what was done - http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/help/s-off-change-firmware-vodafone-branded-t3099330
Any ideas/help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Fast boot is actually download mode now, I know confusing.
Go to HTC Dev, then get yourself a custom recovery and then a ROM.
Done, there are quite a few guides out there mate

Trying to revert from GPE to Sense... RUU starts, goes to HTC grey screen, and then tells me that the USB can not connect to my device.. SuperCid, S-off, ATT converted to GPE.... Help? Mid is the 0p6b1200
Is the phone in bootloader-fastboot mode?
Any response to the command: fastboot devices

I've noticed since I updated to MM GPE that I have to manually change the usb function from charging only to mtp transfer... Could this be the issue? Any fix?

Shouldn't affect fastboot.
---------- Post added at 03:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:17 PM ----------
Some folks have had to flash the Sense firmware before they can run the RUU.
But the normal symptom for that, is the RUU will run until it gets an error related to the fact that the system partition is too small.
What version Windows? Also, if you have USB 3.0 ports, those are known to be problematic with RUU.

Does the command "fastboot devices" return your phone's serial number?
If so, fastboot is working properly.

Fastboot and ADB commands work, Windows 10 recognizes my device, USB 3.0 but never had any issues... How do I flash firmware? I've always just ran the RUU for a clean install when going from GPE to Sense and back

Okay, so I finally got it flashed... Still have no idea what the issue was but now the OTA fails... SuperCid allows BS_US002 to update correct? Sorry, I don't play with this phone very much anymore

SuperCID shouldn't prevent OTA.
Which RUU (file name) did you end up installing correctly? Did you have to flash a firmware separately, or no (and if so, where did it come from?).
On the bootloader screen, what does it say for OS number?
