Hey guys,
Please help me and sign this petition to help our vivid brothers (almost same phone as amaze 4g) They have a locked bootloader and that means no roms :O I hope we can help them out becuase i would be mad if that happened to us. Htc's ceo lied and said no more locked bootloaders back in may well the vivid has a locked bootloader. Lets please support our android brothers . http://www.groubal.com/htc-vivid-has-locked-bootloader-contrary-to-statements-by-the-company/#sign
You got it man.

It probably won't happen, but a unlocked s-on bootloader will let you load a custom recovery, a custom kernel, and a custom system.img, the only thing it won't let you do? flash a radio or another bootloader, both of those things have more potential to brick the phone if done incorrectly, custom roms will work fine on a s-on unlocked bootloader, which can already be done for the Amaze through HTCDev. You're right, it's not the PERFECT solution, but still very grateful that we have a solution at all. Motorola said they would be doing unlockable bootloaders, and NEVER followed through whatsoever.
(I signed the petition, but you guys are going to the wrong people, HTC will NEVER unlock the bootloader without AT&T's permission, they are the one's you should be going to, notice that HTC unlocks the bootloaders on both Sprint and T-mobile phones)

Agreed
I signed becaused I understand the frustration without unlock bootloader and would like to show support to fellow members but I think Vivid bros should forward their petition to ATT instead of HTC - Seems like Peter Chou were force to broke his promise/stateman due to ATT being a big customer
THanks guys its worth a try though
I signed and commented hope this works

If the AT&T deal goes through, this could be the future for TMo customers when they go for a new phone. While the Justice dept is against the acquisition, there is recent history of the courts overruling them unfortunately.
If that happens. I might be living with this phone for a very long time. It works on AT&T data frequencies, unlike the G2X, which was represented by TMO as doing so initially (unless a baseband would activate them - which is still a possibility I have heard).
Petition signed. I recently decided to switch from T-Mobile to AT&T when Amazon was having the any phone for a penny sale and ordered the white Vivid. It will be on my doorstep today but after a little research I am very disappointed and have decided I will keep my Amaze and use it on AT&T and sell my Vivid. What a shame, if we wanted to be locked down we'd just buy iPhones like the rest of world.
I'm definitely down, but it really is a shame that the big corp. still go against open development so hard.

Why were they able to root and unlock the boot loader and everything else on the thunderbolt so quickly but yet no one can do it on the atrix?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Sorry, I don't know.
Because it's not locked or signed?
There's seems to be some discussion regarding it being locked or not. Engadget wrote an article about it being locked but there are a lot of comments from readers with evidence to the contrary.
With it being broken so fast, I believe it wasn't locked or signed.
Um. The phone is not unlocked. In fact the devs were in for a surprise to see the phone has signed bootloader. Signed karnel. Everything is sihned. Which is a furst for htc phone . The only thing they managed to do is root it. And they already did with the atrix. Once you have a signed bootloader and karnel. There is not much you can do.
The article was posted new today or yesterday at engadget. And nothing happened since then.
Its safe to assume all companies right now will use a locked bootloader and karnel. They dont want you to keep your phone. They want you to update.
So basically unless an employee leaks the codes we are s o l.that really sux.

Yea I'm in the same boat, I might just go back to my captivate in the next week. I really like this phone but I don't feel like much progress is being made. I know there are a few busting ass trying to crack this thing but that doesn't necessaraly mean theyre making progress. Although they did get a copy of that unlocked/deencrypted phone from ken so maybe we'll see something soon.

most android hackers are on verizon, because they went in with android first. the least amount of android hackers are on at&t. also, they had better resources, they were leaked a beta bootloader that was unlocked, and also a previous ruu image (like sbf but for htc)

I don't know the true reason, but historically, HTC phones are more "open" and "hackable" than Motorola phones (excluding the original Droid). It's just a different company policy more than likely. Is this policy different with the Thunderbolt? I'm not sure...
there is a definitive difference between 'Locked' and 'Encrypted'
To get S-Off, has anyone tried rolling back to the old RUU (Prerelease) and using HTC Dev? It probably won't work, but it might be worth a shot...
htc dev wont work,they arent going to give an unlock key,it doesnt matter what firmware we are running.
from what i can gather,zergRush works,we need to be able to disable emmc write protect so that a new hboot can be written. im assuming the usual exploits for this are not working,or it would be out by now.
it may be possible that an older ruu may be more "exploitable" i dont reeally know.
i hope some breakthrus come... i hate to think htc devices are going to become "unlockable" like moto i like the rezound but have got to hold out till it has at least a software s-off.
id also be happy with clip support,since i have one of them
edit: htc dev unlock is a joke anyway. i do appreciate the efforts on their part to satisfy the root community,but it is not an s-off. what you get,is an unlocked s-on hboot that lets you change recovery,boot,and system. no radio or hboot changes,and no backwards RUUs without rewriting the misc image.
its unfortunately far from the freedom from a true unsecured bootloader. it may well be good enuff for most folks,but im not happy with that.
It's a good thought tho. Yeah the htc method for the EVO users sucked. I Mena u could still flash roms and such bit they had to have a stock kernel as a default In order to flashed em thru recovery. But I wouldn't be to happy with that either. So I can't blame ya. But if that all we were offered then I would have to live with it.

it really is a great phone. read engadgets review. they really explain the screen resolution very well with graphs. its sold as a music phone but at this time it is the best screen res in the world. the nexus and razor are inferior in that area. watching hd video on it is pretty cool

htc has been locking their bootloaders,this is nothing new. in the past,its just been easy to find work arounds to either turn of the radio secure flag off,or to sneek an eng hboot(that pretends the radio is s-off ) onto the device,and its always happend quickly,in most cases before the device even came out.
to my knowledge there is not encription,like there is with moto bootloaders,ist just that we currently have no way to write a new hboot in place of the current one.
if there is not a real engineering hboot for the rezound,its not too difficult to patch a stock hboot to not do radio checks,and to provide fastboot commands,and even protect itself from being overwritten(all these are characteristics of the revolutionary hboot), its just a matter of an exploit to get it in place.
i know i sort of started that ball rolling with my comment, but i wouldnt give up just yet. hopefully someone whose smarter than us will figure it out. or the clip will support it. or both
im not saying i wont get it,but im still happy with my thunderbolt,i dont need a new phone yet,so i will wait untill we have s-off,or possibly until 4 core processors come out next year

if the 3D bootloader was incrypted,it would still be in place. i dont believe it could be overwritten,even with a radio secure flag off. it is all but impossible to find the encryption key,without the encrypter giving it to you.
hmm. after some thot... does revolutionary give the 3d a new hboot like it does for other models? looking at their site again,it gives permanent nand unlock to the sensation,3d,and mytouch slide. i guess its possible to turn the secure flag off,and all partitions could be flashed without security checks except the hboot.
hafta research that one

Wow that's a great thought. But the hboot would remain the same. Wiether u had 1.30 or 1.40 to begin with. They never released there exploit tho. I know it had to do with the kernel and htc patched it with the 2.08 update. Bastards LOL.

That would be just a wasted effort. Waiting on a different unlock just so your warranty with HTC won't be voided is nonsense. In my lifetime i never, ever used a manufacturer warranty on a cellphone when most people carry insurance.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Admittedly, it would be a waste of time, but it's not completely absurd to this that some people may still want an unlocked bootloader without HTCDev.
In my case, I got my phone set up the way that I wanted it before regaw_leinad got his rooter finished and before flashable modswere out. As of now, I don't want to go through HTCDev unlock and lose my non-backed up data. I didn't wait on the Regaw rooter (or unlock it myself) because I didn't want a new ROM on it anytime soon. Now that flashable mods are out, I wish that I would have unlocked then.
All of that said, I don't consider finding another exploit a priority. Devs shouldn't worry about it when it's done for them.
I'll bite the bullet and unlock it eventually.

[BL] Unlock without HTCDEV
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
The HTC Dev unlock method for the EVO3D was balls. It didn't do the trick and you had to spoof everything through Fastboot (cabled into your computer). That is a much more technical route and more dangerous for noobs. Also the recovery put on didn't always stick.
This time however with the E4GLTE the HTC Dev unlock is great and has provided everything you need to get rooted. There is a nice automated .exe (one single download) that will do the entire process for you. Takes about 10 minutes. Pretty sweet and you even get the super user apps pushed etc.
I've been kinda hesitant to unlock because of the warranty void, but a method like 18th.abn's method makes this noob even MORE hesitant! Unlocking my original evo 4g made this noob very nervous a couple years ago, but I love flashing roms and would really like to see what kind of performance can be unleashed on my new evolte...
There is also a one click method available now.

Caveat Emptor: I did use the search feature and did some reading, but still am confused.
I have a Sprint Motorola Photon 4G, still running 2.3.4.
To date, it is my understanding that unlocking my bootloader still kills Wimax 4G. From what I've found, all barriers seem to exist with devices running 2.3.5.
I'm still running 2.3.4. Would I still lose Wimax 4G if I unlock my bootloader?
Would it be possible to unlock my bootloader, flash a ROM, then relock my bootloader and keep 4G?
(I may have asked this awhile back somewhere, but I used to work overnights and memory gets fuzzy of online activities from that time)

Unlocking kills wimax. To keep 4g, you'd need to keep a rom based on stock with a stock kernel with a locked bootloader. Even then there are instances that'll kill wimax, like flashing a bootstrapped rom while staying locked. Bottom line is don't unlock bootloader if you want to keep wimax.

Please modify this post. This is utterly untrue. Having information like this out there just spreads fear, should some unknowing individual come and read it and get the wrong impression.
Well, legal or illegal, Motorola appears to have made any discussion of criminal law a moot (sp?) point.
I need wimax and Moto says if I want to unlock any bootloaders I can haz no 4g, so no unlocking to be done. Thanks for simplifying this!
Unlocking the bootloader is not illegal. Unlocking the carrier lock without the carrier's permission is, but only on subsidized phones sold after 1/26/2013.

It may not be to you but it is to a lot of the rest of us.
I like the freedom of not ever needing a computer which you never do with s-off.
Your not the first person to try to say that as it seems people like to say that when they dont understand what s-off means. If s-off was not really that big of deal then ask yourself why do the devs put in all the time and effort to crack it and get s-off if its as you claim not necessary ???? Why dont you ask the devs that question, maybe they can explain it to you so you can understand and comprehend it.
I have had s-off on every htc smartphone I have had since the first evo 4g and I have had a lot of them. s-on may be good enough for you and all you want, but not everyone is as content being s-on as you.
Uh this isn't the HTC One X days. You dont need a computer to flash roms or any other tweaks.
For as the devs.. I never said S-Off was useless I said it's not important as getting root and flashing roms which is probly the main priority to get access to first rather than S-Off.

Yeah if you always want to flash roms with stock kernels, most of us dont like the stock kernels so yes you would need a computer. Access was gained before the phones were even released, but if your content with s-on that is your prerogative to settle for that, as is ours to want s-off and not settle.
For the life of me I have no clue why people content with s-on always seem to question people that want s-off. This post has nothing to do with deciding is s-off is not needed by anyone, its to talk about gaining s-off.
If your happy with s-on then please go post on forums where others are happy being s-on...

I got burned on the M7 with that and the camera issue. Even though the camera issue was a known F up on HTC's part, they tried to charge me 200 bucks to fix it because I was unlocked. Only way they knew I was unlocked was because of HTC Dev, because the device was sent to them completely stock. I ruu'd back to stock before sending it to them.
This is my work phone, so I don't pay for it, therefore I'd like to be able to hide the fact that I've knowingly "voided" the warranty.
PS. I complained enough and got up high enough the food chain that they offered to fix my phone, however by then my digitizer died and the M8 came out.
