Hi everyone,
The flyer recently got htc's own online bootloader unlocker. I'm trying to work through the steps but everytime I type in fastboot oem get_identifier_token it returns a err command error. Is there something I'm doing wrong, I have installed HTC sync on win 7, with all the sdk stuff that it asks for but I can't seem to get this to work. Thanks in advance.
what's the error?
sorry was on vacation...
the error is "INFO[ERR] command error!!!" i think all my drivers and what not installed correctly, im not quite sure what's wrong here.

I recently upgraded my 3125 to WM6.1 and it has bootloader SPL 2.04. I've been reading about using MTTY to communicate with the bootloader and have been playing with that a bit. I get the Cmd> prompt and can verify that it is communicating. For example, entering "set" returns various flag settings.
How can I find out what commands this bootloader supports? I've tried several commands shown in threads for other phones and some seem to work and others simply display "Invalid command". Also, I'm leery to enter any code I don't know since I don't want to brick the phone.
I've looked at the bootloader with a hex editor and it looks like I see some commands others have mentioned, but have no way of know what the exact syntax is.
Is there anywhere I can find a list of supported commands?
TIA,
Craig
If anyone could spare a moment that would be most appreciated. I have searched for hours and my laptop is crying under the "weight of a thousand tabs" at the moment and have finally decided that my problem is not going to be solved by more forum browsing. Luckily I have all the links to tutorials I was following so I can pinpoint exactly where things went wrong.
The carrier: Virgin Mobile
The problem: Stuck in bootloader, no options working. Recovery and factory reset both yield nothing. RUU fails with error 170.
The History: I decided I was going to try and root my phone today. That actually worked via stock. Followed a guide that showed me how to unlock the phone (using HTCDEV) and pushed TWRP as my recovery.img. I flashed the stock ROM and had root access. Then I was following another guide to obtain S-OFF. It said that I should flash SetMainVersionLow via my recovery and the next step was to run "fastboot oem lock" which worked. Then it told me to run the RUU.exe which simply gives me error 170 "USB Connection Error". I was running adb and fastboot commands early from this same machine, and nothing changed from the point of "fastboot oem lock" and running the RUU, though now my device won't even show up in fastboot or adb.
Any help would be most appreciated. I'm 12 hours in surfing on the web for solutions and have got nothing. I have learned that this site rocks (just looking through posts and the general responses people get) and you can bet and help some stranger will give me on the internet will be paid forward five times over. I'm a computer major in school so I am well versed with technology but as you can tell my rooting experience is non-existent. Thanks all.

EDIT: I have, through restarting both laptop and phone a few times, obtained fastboot. My RUU now proceeds past where I would encounter error 170, but still fails. When I unplug the USB it says HBoot older. Anyone have a "newer" RUU?
fastboot getvar cid = SPCS_002
fastboot getvar mainver = 1.00.000.0
I was trying to use:
RUU_Shooter_ICS_35_S_Sprint_WWE_VM_1.13.652.2_Radio_1.06.00.0426_NV_1.53_144_release_262287_signed.exe
I also tried:
RUU_Shooter_ICS_35_S_Sprint_WWE_2.89.651.2_Radio_1.09.00.0706__NV_NV_SPCS_1.43_release_271101_signed.exe
'
which gave me the error "CID incorrect"
Hi, when i try to unlock my bootloader i've got this message in execute mode of Windows :
INFO[ERR] Command error!!!
OKAY[0.012s] finished. total time 0.012s
Do i need to upgrade the hboot cause i don't know how.
Thanks for replies! I'm stuck!
I'm on Jelly Bean 4.1 STOCK Version of course.
Up please, i can't install full sense rom and i'm stuck now since a week
You must be doing something wrong. Follow the instructions again carefully.
At which command do you get the error?
i think your unlock code might be incorrect. Get it again from htcdev
I've put the three files in C/ root and in Windows command i choose it. But when i enter thé next command given by HTC i have the error. I followed every steps carrzfully
Check whether you're using USB3.0.
It should work on USB2.0
ur command is wrong
USB 3.0 was the problem! Now it worked like a charm!! Thanks!
I have a sprint htc evo 3d and have tried everything possible to unlock this damn thing. I'm on windows 8.1 which i think can be part of the issue but have tried it in ubuntu 14.10 on a vmware image.(detects the phone as a device).Have htc sync installed with the drivers etc etc.The main issue seems to be it can't find the driver when i put it into the 'bootloader mode' and set it to fastboot. Unknown driver says 'My HTC' with these hardware id's:
USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0FF0&REV_0100
USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0FF0
I have tried every driver possible i could find, including disabling whatever the driver verification in windows 8.1 and adding those id's to a .inf file that was supposed to work.Nothing happens.The phone has ICS and the bootloader comes up with this:
shooter xc ship s-on RL
hboot-1.58.0000
Have tried the htc dev site to unlock it but end up with the same issue. Tried 2 different cables,but nothing.
I have no clue what to try at this point. Is it me or does windows 8.1 really hate the HTC evo 3d? Idk what else to try but maybe someone here has an idea what to do next.thanks

To unlock your device you must have fastboot running.
To check this boot into bootloader and type "fastboot devices".
With that you should be reportet your device number, otherwise fastboot is not running/installed properly.
If you have problems to get fastboot running, download a linux live CD.
Maybe look here.
thanks!
Using the linux live cd seemed to have done it with no issues It pulled up the code from fastboot and put it in the htc dev website, and got the unlock key. Having some issues with trying to update the old 'superuser' app which i think is now through chainfire? idk. I installed it but wouldn't update the binarys for some reason. Flashed the root with this: su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip. Maybe i'll find a better version through searching through the forums. Thanks anyways for the help!

Okay so I have the SDK, JRE and all other tools available. Fastboot and adb commands work when the device is on and unlocked, but when I tell it to reboot to the bootloader, Windows 10 claims that it cannot identify the device and as such the "fastboot oem get_identifier_token" command from HTCDev (EMEA Version) does not do anything except hang at "waiting for device to respond"
I strongly suspect it's a driver fault however the 3.xx versions of the driver are not compatible with Windows 10 and the 4.xx versions simply do nothing when I try to run the exe.
Does anyone have any ideas? The device is new, stock and carrier unlocked (Thanks eBay!) but the stock OS is a bit yuck and I plan to use this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2526391
Any help appreciated!
Try to find a friend / family member with a Win 7 PC. I mod phones as a side job and keep a Win 7 PC just for stuff like this. I could never get fastboot to work on 2010-2012 HTC phones on Win 8+. Some people say it works for them, but Win 7 will work WAY better for this type of thing, trust me.
