( i admit i am a noob at this stuff) I bought this rezound from a guy, and i came home and downloaded the Rezound All-In-One kit, i installed the htc drivers registered at htcdev. I tried to get token ID.. didnt work, and i tried to do the ICS leak and followed the instructions exactly... didnt work.. well i looked at my phone while in bootloader and it said unlocked, i tried running the All-in-one kit "Relock Bootloader" command and it still doesnt work. in command prompt it says ( Rezound_All-In-One_Kit_v2.0\data>fastboot oem lock
< waiting for device >
and thats it.. doesnt do anything else.. can someone please help me re-lock this phone.
First, try doing the above again, only uninstall/disable HTC sync this time. Report back if it doesn't work. Also, why do you wish to relock?

Is your phone in HBOOT when you issue the command? If not, it should be. Fastboot commands only work in HBOOT.

Yeah you're right MrSmith. I looked at the .bat related to re-locking in the A-I-O toolkit and it doesn't invoke "adb reboot bootloader" command before attempting "fasboot oem lock".
I ran into this problem as well. Make sure usb debugging is on. Should work like a charm.

Try rebooting into HBOOT then unplugging the phone and plugging it back in. Sometimes the device manager(on your PC) doesn't pickup the change in modes. The AIO could just be firing off commands instead of waiting for the phone to be ready as well. Try doing it manually.

Hello
I'm trying to revert back to complete stock (stock rom, no root, S-ON) and following this guide/post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33770807
For that i need to do check the CID and then write back the original CID (Though i can skip this because i didn't use HTC Dev method at all, just original root and revolutionary S-OFF)
Then i need to do "fastboot oem lock" before running the RUU.. but here in lies my problem.
For some reason i can't get fastboot to work.
ADB works fine and i can push and pull files when in android or recovery, but as soon as i enter hboot and try to use fastboot commands, i just get "< Waiting for device >" and have to close the CMD window. (Before you ask, yes it does say "FASTBOOT USB" on the screen)
I have tried both using my standard adb and fastboot files, and i have also tried downloading the latest android SDK and using those files, but neither to any luck.
Anyone have any idea? It might be something simple, as i haven't had to use fastboot before now.
I'm guessing it can't be a driver problem as i can connect fine with ADB and it shows my device when doing "adb devices" (Though it does not show my device when i do "fastboot devices", it just skips the line entirely and prompts me to enter something new).

If "fastboot devices" doesn't show the serial number of your phone, none of the other fastboot commands are going to work.
Have you tried disconnecting the phone, rebooting your PC and then connecting the phone again? If that doesn't work, try uninstalling the drivers, rebooting the PC, then reinstalling the drivers.

Tried to reboot the computer, no change.
Decided to try using my laptop before going through the trouble of reinstalling drivers, and it worked
My laptop can see my device fine using "fastboot devices" and i'm able to get my CID (cid: 0202)
Thanks for trying to help me out anyways I might be back with more questions
EDIT: I just google'd a bit and found another command to get the CID "fastboot oem readcid" and it shows HTC_Y13 (which i find more believable tbh).
Is your hboot unlocked?
I am s-off, but couldn't use fastboot commands untill i unlocked my bootloader again..

There's no need to unlock the bootloader if you are S-OFF.
If you want to run fastboot commands like "flash" or "erase" just install a custom bootloader like ENG, JBear or Revoutionary from the current bootloader. It's better to keep the bootloader locked since that's the stock status and it makes it much easier to return the phone to 100% stock.
AFAIK, the "*** RELOCKED ***" heading you get when locking an unlocked bootloader which flags to HTC/Sprint that you modified the phone can only be undone with the JuopunutBear wire trick.

Did you try one of the JuopunutBear bootloaders (GB or ICS) for the GSM version of the Evo 3D? That should allow the fastboot commands without unlocking.
ramjet73
Yeah, after i s-offed i flashed the ICS jb hboot, but no luck...
So i decided to flash the 1.49.0007 hboot and unlock it the htcdev way.
But if you want to lock it again, you can simply redo the wiretrick right?

http://forums.androidcentral.com/ve...how-install-device-drivers-android-1-0-a.html
first off, I'm an idiot with this whole thing and shouldn't be doing it probably. i just don't know enough about it to be playing with expensive phones like this so i understand I deserve whatever i get.
i was running a custom rom on an S-ON phone. i forgot the name of the rom (was made by TEAM COOL or something). But I wanted to unroot and go back to normal stock ROM and download the JB update. First, in the SU app, I did a complete unroot. that did nothing except not let me use the app anymore.
then I tried doing the RUU way of going back, but when it would go to the loading bootloader portion, the usb would disconnect and it would fail with error 171.
so then, and i don't know how i got here, but i went into recovery and did a factory reset and now i have no rom. I have tried installing meanrom but it fails after some line regarding a kernal. my phone won't do anything except boot to the white HTC screen or into the bootloader.
i have no idea what to do, I just want it working at this point.
i've been searching forums like crazy but all the solutions are things I already have done or things that won't work for me.
If you haven't done so yet, you need to relock the bootloader before running ruu. Put your phone in fastboot and using SDK or ADB Tools, type fastboot oem lock

thank you for your help! however, whenever i do this, it just says < waiting for device >
so i finally got a rom to install--clean rom. that is the one i used to have. but when i reboot, it gets stuck on a black screen and won't go any further.
I had the same thing happen. Had to run a boot.img flash utility i found on another thread elsewhere on xda. The flash utility was updated for jb. If i can locate where i found it then i will get back to you.

Have you tried meanbean? It has the boot.img flash tool baked in for s-on, just follow the instructions to the tee in the OP... It's in the Android development thread... Good luck
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Sounds like you need to flash a Rom that has the s-on installer or fastboot flash the kernel for the Rom you have installed
Most roms come with the kernel installer built in now days. just keep trying to flash em. fyi if your phone turns on , even a little bit , you are not bricked
I am trying to flash meanbean. I wiped the cahes and did factory reset, then flashed the ROM. It's been on "Installing /system..." for about 30 minutes now. Something seems wrong. I'm scared to interrupt it in case that's normal or if interrupting it will break it for good.
Well, I think that might be because my twrp version is really old...2.1.8. I tried updating but had no luck.
Now nothing flashes. It gets to 'verifying partition sizes' then fails. Tried this on several roms that would previously flash, just not work.

You need to FASTBOOT install it:
Turn off your device. Turn on the device and keep holding volume down until a menu shows up. Select fastboot from the menu list. Plug the device into your computer. If you have the right drivers installed, your screen should now say FASTBOOT USB. Run the following command via the command line:
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img

Can you get into bootloader? If so go to the TWRP website and download the hboot zip. Put on external sd card and enter bootloader.

Perhaps what is happening when you try oem lock and get that error is that adb is still running from a prior attempt or because of some other program. Try opening your task manager and ending all processes of adb and other programs that connect to the phone. Then try oem locking again and go from there.

I made a little bit of progress!
I determined that Windows 8 was the reason I get the usb malfunctioning message. I obtained a Windows 7 computer and it worked like a charm.
That said, I'm not out of the woods yet.
I relocked the phone using fastboot and then have been attempting to flash a stock RUU now that the usb issue is sorted out.
That seems to work but it gets stuck at "sending....." for as long as 35 minutes. I've tried about 4 times, giving between 20-35 minutes and it won't go beyond sending.
I can at least fastboot now; but the phone is locked. Which is fine; I just want back to stock anyways.

Make sure you have the latest HTC driver installed. Use a USB 2.0 port, make sure that HTC Sync is not installed on your computer, and that your computer antivirus is off.
You can get the latest driver in the link below. Use the HTC driver from post #2.

Also, it may take a few attempts before Moonshine is successful. On the phone I recently Moonshined, it took a few tries before it succeeded, and I had everything set up correctly.

You have to use a live CD with Dirty Racun if you are running Windows. To answer your second question, no, you can't use terminal emulator on your phone, either. Please be careful with what you're doing, otherwise you risk having an expensive paperweight in your hand. Personally I would have gone the Moonshine route It's Windows friendly and you don't have to fool with any commands, other then checking device connection with ADB & fastboot.

Make sure you're doing a full system wipe in recovery prior to flashing the ROM. You also might want to try opening a command prompt in your ADB tools folder while in the bootloader and type the command "fastboot erase cache" (minus quotation marks) and hit enter. Make sure you're connected via fastboot USB first.

Use a different usb port. Use a usb2.0 port if possible, 3.0 has problems with htc one.
Be in the fastboot menu and then let it work. Try again if unsuccessful.
Uninstall drivers for your device and reinstall them.
BTW did u restart your phone after locking so that is shows its locked. or did you read the line after it tried to lock it.

Hello all, I've just recently recovered my DNA back to stock from a botched ROM install on the 3.06 software. Prior to running the RUU, I used Rumrunner to unlock my bootloader to put CWM on as my recovery. Then I had to re-lock it to run the RUU. Now I'm stuck at re-unlocking it. The HTCdev site is giving me a MID not allowed error and I'm thinking it has something to do with the fact that I used Rumrunner? Call me stupid, the DNA is still relatively new to me. Thank you!!
You shouldn't need to relock it to RUU. The RUU will overwrite your recovery with stock but the bootloader should remain unlocked (and s-off if you did that as well). At this point you should be able to just run rumrunner again to unlock the bootloader and then you can flash a custom recovery and go from there.

I have heard if you flash a new hboot the relocked text will go away, but I haven't had this issue myself so I can't personally confirm it. I do recommend updating your hboot and radio, though, for other reasons like better radio signal.

I don't feel confident enough to try and see if CWM or TWRP and I don't want to go through the RUU garbage again. Shoot me a PM and I'll tell you everything what not to do. LOL

Are you S-OFF? If so issue this command in fastboot:
fastboot oem writecid 22222222
Go to htcdev.com and then it will allow you to unlock the bootloader also make sure you have 8 2's in the command.
