I've got the HTC P3300 for a few months now. I wanted to upgrade to WM6, which I did. Everything is fine.
Now I want to downgrade to WM5 WWE, but it doesn't work.
My pda is not sim-locked, but it still fails. There are a lot of threads regarding this, so I wont ask this, but ..... What the h*ll is CID lock?
I have read a lot about this, but I don't understand. Where is it good for, why can I upgrade, but not downgrade?
Please, can someone explain this in a simple yet effective manner to me?
Hope to read soon,
With regards,
Ronald.
And bootloader?
oh, yes,
What is the bootloader mode? How do I get there, and what does it do?
If you want to know specific what CID is and why to run USPL, you should ask the master-mind behindt the prog. him selv (Clik on "USPL" further down.
If you have the correkt original ROM made for you unit it should not be a problem to run it without using USPL. But personally i use this genius lille flash (just in case) - Why take any chance
Follow thise instruction and it should go great
Hard reset your device
Run USPL - klik here for further explanation

Here you can see hov to access bootloader..
I have downgraded my orbit easily after running USPL utility. This utlity is to temporary unlock the phone. Please try to downgrade or upgrade after this tool run to unlock CID
(The bootloader is invoked by pressing down the Power and Voicedialer buttons simultaneously, and using the stylus at the same time to press the RESET button at the left side. Continue pressing the two buttons for a few seconds after pressing and releasing the reset button until the bootloader screen appears)

just to point this out because a friend of mine misunderstood this: this wiki article shows both how to do a hard reset and also how to enter bootloader. you dont have to do a hard reset first to enter bootloader. just do what abshie wrote (even though i dont think pressing the power button is necessary).
You are right

I just mentioned the way to enter boot loader is because he asked for it.
No need to do anything in the bracket to upgrade or downgrade OS.
Just run USPL and you can easily do it.

you use the bootloader mode for... well, for upgrading and downgrading your ROM, for one thing!!!
you can always downgrade, but remember, first you must run the USPL each time you want to change your rom. then you won't have a problem. you don't even need to downgrade to your original rom, unless you bricked your device. but if you didn't brick it and you just want to change/downgrade your rom, just run USPL first then flash your device with your choice rom!

Somebody..........help!:crying:
give me please a link to the manuel you use. i just use my own german manuel
normally, after the successfully unlock token check in cmd, you HOX will boot and you have to follow the instructions on the screen. if you all have accept, your HOX will boot again and you have to push the vol- button during that.
if you now are in hboot, you have to flash the recovery like cwm or twrp in fastboot mode and finally the superuser zip in recovery with "install zip from sd card".

Your s-off, this takes priority.
Just flash ROM direct after full wipe.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
You are S OFF that's the idea behind AHHK2! To check that - power off your phone, then power it on with volume key down pressed, see the info on top of the screen it should say "... S-OFF..."
S-Off, Make Sure you did the Mandatory Wipes

That's strange because it worked with no problems for my One X. You could also try THIS to unlock your bootloader, but the tool does the same steps that you manually did with the previous tutorial.
Maybe you have overlooked some minor detail in the steps. I would recommend starting fresh on a different PC and make sure you have the drivers up to date. If indeed you did everything right, you probably have a faulty device (I really don't think that is the case).

On your bootloader does it say relocked or security warning.
Hi all,
After spending bunch if time seeking a solution, I found no one met this kind of issue when unlocking bootloader.
First, I wanted to unlock the bootloader as it was the only solution to fix a soft-brick on my phone. At switching-on, the phone starts with HTC green logo on white screen and stay on, and then vibrate 4 times and nothing else happens.
Recovery option through HBOOT menu does not solve it.
So under HBOOT menu, I plugged the usb cable, and proceed with the bootloader unlocking procedure according the step by step procedure on HTC Dev website & our famous forum.
Everything' goes well until i send the .bin unlock file to the phone in FASTBOOT USB mode, then it displays the unloack bootloader prompt window.
BUT it is impossible to validate the choice "YES Unlock bootloader (may void your warranty). Absolutely nothing happens when I press the power button, WHEREAS the choice "NO" works and reboot my phone the the HBOOT Menu.
So, it seems as a kind of another protection is blocking the bootloader unlocking ??
Phone information are the following :
*** LOCKED ***
***Security Warning ***
G3U PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.18.0002
RADIO-14.11.36Q4.21
OS-1.10.401.4
eMMC-boot
Nov 12 2013, 11:57:38.0
If anyone has an idea to explore a solution, i'd be pleased to try it .
Thanks a lot.
On htc's unlock bootloader page, which version did you try?
I used "All other supported models" and it unlocked mine without problems.
(my device has the same hboot but a slightly different radio version)

I chosen "All other supported models" , as the model is not listed.
Otherwise i guess it wouldn't have given me the bin file .

Well it's the only point in the procedure I could think off that might have been misunderstood.
(Desire * could have been misinterpreted as any desire model instead of needs hboot upgrade)
Other than that and the obvious keep trying until it works, I'm out of ideas that could be of use to you.
Sorry & Good Luck
Maybe the desire* one would work. I used the All Supported Models option also and it didn't gave me any problems unlocking it.

i have the exact same problem. can't unlock the bootloader, can't enter the recovery menu, can't reset it to factory settings. you were able to fix it after all? it's so strange, i've unlocked lots of htc's but i've never been in this situation before.
Bump!!! Please anyone solved this problem?

A certain guy at a service shop told me it is probably a bricked EMMC chip where the bootloader and recovery are, so you can't do anything about it.
I'm no expert, so I don't know if this makes any sense, but that was what I was told.
I have HTC desire 300 and I unlocked bootloader with no problem when unlock bootloader screen came I just used volume key to select yes and then pressed power button and it rebooted and unlocked. I suggest you try all procedure again on another computer.
I've same problem on HTC Desire 500((
no PC problem, no .bin file problem
Power button respond only in NO position
I have same problem with a desire 300. I used both bins (all supported devices and desire *) with no success. Only No option responds.
I have same issue, power button responds on NO not on Yes.
