My M8 is having some touch screen problems, and I want to send it in on the warranty to receive a new unit. Will they replace it even though the bootloader has been unlocked? Even if I re-lock it and use s-off to make the device seem locked, wont they still have record from the htcdev site that I unlocked the bootloader? If they do, will they not replace the phone because of the unlocked bootloader, even if the issue has nothing to do with the bootloader being unlocked?
Please someone help me going back to factory reset with custom rom and also i want to lock bootloader and turn s-off :crying:
I'm totally confused! its showing s-on right now, should i need to s-off it?
I don't think its possible to turn s-on to s-off right now, the phone is still too new with much to explore.
Besides...i think before you need can do any of this stuff, u definitely have to unlock your bootloader.
Anyway, the last few steps that you followed in htcdev in unlocking your bootloader explains how to relock your bootloader. Whether it relocks the factory bootloader lock, that remains to be seen.
I purchased used M8 which is locked to vodafone and is rooted with unlocked bootlaoder S-ON running GPE ROM. I requested unlock code but it dont accept it as keep saying incorrect password even i tried three times. when i contacted the seller who sent me this unlock code he said phone should be in its original factory state in order for this factory unlock code to work.. Is he right? if yes then is it easy to get back in original setting i.e to unroot or relock bootloader ..
any help would be appreciated
Hi
I need to send my phone back for a warranty repair but I am confused about the exact steps to take.
My phone is currently S-OFF, rooted, has a TWRP recovery installed and has the latest Vodafone (VODAP001) stock rom installed.
What steps and in what order should I act in order to be left with a phone with a LOCKED boot loader (not RELOCKED/TAMPERED), unrooted and S-ON?
The instructions in a particular online link talk of locking the bootloader and then flashing an RUU but I can't find one for my Vodafone variant. (CID: VODAP001)
I have been going round in circles for the last few hours.
At one point I did lock the bootloader and then did the s-on but ended up in a boot loop to the bootloader - (probably because I forgot to unroot?)! Rescued it using the HTC Bootloader unlock code, reset and then rerunning Sunshine for S-OFF.
I can't seem to work out what to do without an RUU file.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Hello sir. My device. Htc m9. My device already s-off...... on the boot loader screen how to s-on. & how to boot loader unlock plz sir help
You dont ever need to set s-on and you never need to lock or relock the bootloader. If your bootloader says locked or relocked and you want to unlock it then go to htcdev and follow the online instructions for unlocking the bootloader. You MUST use htcdev as that website will email you a key to flash via fastboot. You need htc_fastboot.exe too.
