I am trying to unlock the bootloader on my Rezound. When the confirmation screen comes up on the phone, I select Yes and press the Power button, but nothing happens. The phone freezes and I have to pull the battery. Is there another method of unlocking the bootloader I can use? Thanks!

I suppose you could try temp root and s-off but I'm not sure that would work.... I guess you should try again... Have you checked to see if it actually did unlock the bootloader?
try using this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1504824
The bootloader still shows "LOCKED". The phone was dropped in the water, but can still get to bootloader/fastboot. Recovery won't work, and I can't flash a recovery without unlocking the bootloader. I can't unlock the bootloader because it freezes. I'm really hoping the phone isn't dead!
Any Luck?
Hi there, old thread I know, but didn't want to start a new one and yours was the only one I could find relating to my problem.
I also cannot select Yes when it comes to unlocking the bootloader! I am using Hasoon2000s tool on my HTC ONE S.
Did you have any luck in the end? Or anybody else know how to resolve this?
Thanks!

I get to where it comes up on my phone as "Unlock Bootloader" and displays a warning message about the warranty underneath. Then it says select yes or no and press the power button to confirm, I press the power button when the radio button is on Yes but nothing happens.

Yeah I would try doing it manually. The toolkit in theory should work but if it hasn't yet I'd just go through the process on htcdev and see what happens.

Well what you could do is RUU to get a fresh start. The bootloader will be replaced during the install so it may fix your issue. Worth a shot at this point.

I'm getting the same issue with my EVO 3D except mine isn't carrier branded. I didn have it rooted and unlocked but relocked the bootloader as I thought it may need to go in for repairs.
To begin with mine says RELOCKED
When I try to unlock the bootloader I get to the point where you are shown the warning and can select yes or no. I select yes but nothing happens, selecting no restarts my phone, but when going back into the bootloader it says UNLOCKED. So I go to revolutionary to root it and what not but when it gets to the restarting in bootloader thing, it tried that a few time, reboots my phone in bootloader twice. then says failed. Then going back into the boot loader it now says revolutionary. Strange I know. It then installs clockwork recovery and tried to boot to bootloader but fails (Seems funny to be failing at bootloader all the time so this tells me that it was never unlocked in the first place)
I'm out of ideas on this one so any help would be great.
Lol... old thread. Maybe this will help some other nOOb. I was in the exact same situation. Toched YES touched NO got super frustrated. Spent a long time googling. Finally figured out that you navigate with the volume buttons on the side. So volume up to change from No to Yes then press the POWER button for "enter". D'oh!!

WOW! Revolutionary Finally worked on my phone!! Now instead of a Pink **LOCKED** I have a nice pink --REVOLUTIONARY--!! So...I suggest trying REVOLUTIONARY!!
The pink locked is because the newest RUU has an hboot with support for official unlocking through HTC. Not that we will ever see that or need it. Like you said Revolutionary will s-off that hboot no problem. Just thought I would shed some light on the pink "locked" deal.

you may need htc sync and the android sdk installed first. also make sure usb debugging is on under your phone settings.
you didnt read their page,you need the drivers they have listed,unistall anything you already installed,install the drivers from their page and it will see your phone,but if you would have read the instructions you would have known that, never mind you guys never learn even on the post with the ruu it says it will lock your bootloader,so why flash it,oh sorry you would have had to read that also!

Finally got it.....did the EXACT same thing I did before and it worked the 2nd time......whatever.
I held the volume down key then held power button down. While holding the volume down & releasing the pwr button it only booted normally.
I noticed while holding both buttons down when trying again that the soft keys blink at the bottom. I hit the Home key in the middle and now every time it boots it says "SAFE MODE" in the bottom left of the screen. I tried repeating the same procedure, but it still boots while displaying "SAFE MODE" on the lower left of the screen.
I could still never get in bootloader mode.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
I should add that I did use the RUNME method for rooting the phone a couple of days ago. This morning I installed the apk GOOManager to install TWRP. When I select reboot to recovery, it would say I need to do it manually which was why I started to do the steps I described above.

Thanks! Turned it off! I am now in recovery. It shows at the top:

I'm a bit confused if we don't have S-OFF & it's still locked is it like the 3D with a locked bootloader?
Crap..then I chose to go into RECOVERY & it shows the small icon of the phone with a red triangle over it with the exclamation mark. Can't pull the battery! How do I restart it! Darn it... shouldn't have messed with it! I've rooted a dozen phones before this...
Well, it eventually rebooted on it's own. Whew. patience! It no longer says safe mode either which is good. I wanted to make a backup image with TWRP before trying other ROMS. I'm not sure what gives & why after using GooManager in didn't seem to install.

I never had a 3D, so I can't really help you there. Have you unlocked your bootloader through HTC Dev or did you just run the One Click Root from the development section? I ask because in order to install a custom recovery, you must have your bootloader unlocked, which only HTC Dev can do right now.
I used the one click method from the dev section watching the vid on Hack.com or whatever it was... using the RUNME.BAT

Yea, that's the problem, you must unlock your bootloader in order to install a custom recovery. Although I'm not sure if you can do the HTC Dev process with a "Tampered" bootloader. You might have to un-root first.

just hold down power for like 10 sec and it will hard reboot
it didnt install because your bootloader is still locked, you just have software level root.
Thanks for the help guys! I didn't know the one click method still left it locked. I'll do the HTC method then. I did that with my 3D...even though the bootloader was still locked...

So, I'm assuming you've never seen a stock recovery. The phone with the red triangle after you select recovery from the bootloader shows that first. As an added precaution, you then must hold vol. + and press power and it will boot into the real recovery. In order to flash any fancy ROMs or anything, you need to install a custom recovery. At present, TWRP is recommended due to it having the /misc partition error corrected.

I would really recommend unlocking manually, regawmod is a great tool but even with the latest update its still a bit unreliable. Some people are having to go to boot loader themselves and others are having to reboot manually each time the phone needs to restart. Its still the easiest method though.
I'm having the exact same issues.
I am also on software update 2.13.651.1
Tried to use RegawMOD and it freezes once I click the root menu. I also tried another root method to no avail.
I have .NET 4.0 installd and HTCDriver also.
Any ideas? I'm reading that I have to manually boot into the bootloader? how do i do this?
Thanks for any help.
To boot into bootloader press and hold volume down and power until it resets. Sometimes my phone doesn't like that tho, so I just restart with power down. Once screen goes black hold down volume and power. Should take you into bootloader. Maybe start the one-click from there and u may have to reset phone yourself when script says resetting phone but it doesn't itself.
Think all that is needed is net 4.0 and HTC drivers for regaw. I used the manual root and u need adb tools for that. Your hboot won't allow the zedomax method though.

It's called "Fast boot". It's under the power icon in settings. Uncheck it, and it should allow the phone to use RegawMOD smoothly.

If you have problems re-unlocking your DNA here's what worked for me.probably explaining to much as most here already know how to get to fastboot every way possible, but here goes. posted this in a Q&A thread earlier , just thought I'd post it here to make it easier to see
I hold the power button to get the power off or restart prompt, choose power off...do not choose restart. once the phone is off. Hold the volume down and press and hold the power button....keep holding.... phone will boot normally except the buttons on the bottom of the phone will flash....Keep holding.. the screen will turn off for a few more seconds Keep holding...and then your in the bootloader. choose fastboot and then run the fastboot unlock command.Says unlocked every time. took 3 hours wed. night of running the unlock command only to find out it still said relocked. repeated till i found out about the completely turning off the phone thing in the one x forums. Tried it and no problems since. have done it about 20 times in the last 2 days.
Sorry for sounding stupid right now, but what exactly do you mean by re-unlocking? To me, it sounds like the phone was unlocked, then relocked, and now it's being locked again? Just curious
I've had no issues re-locking after the jcase unlock process ... I've used the all in one program to re-lock and unlock , I've done it a total of three times on two separate DNA's
From my DROID DNA
Some people have had issues of the unlock not taking after locking.
This has worked for me every time after i had issues the first time i locked.
Anyone aware of an online video showing this process?
I'm clicking over to YouTube now but I think it's too early in the release to find one.
Which process? Have you unlocked yet? If not, this here is not ment untill you have unlocked and then re- locked you bootloader.

I'm glad it worked for you. I had the same issues.
I'm far from an expert, but in discussions with some experts over the weekend, there should be no reason to RUU and then re-unlock your phone. (I'm not knocking those that did this already, because I also re-unlocked, lol)
There is a thread in the Dev section that has a stock/rooted NAND TWRP backup that you can restore. Someone was nice enough to start with RUU, unlock, root and then back it up and share it with us.

Oh trust me, Nandroids are not always the answer. Especially when your perfectly working one up and gives an md5 mismatch.
While you can recalc the md5, its not worth it IMO.
I have read most of the unrooting issues and am very confused. I am new to rooting and oh so very green.
I tried to root my phone and ran into a problem. I manged to unlock but did not get access to SU. That is not even the issue anymore. I want to return the phone to lock. I assume I did not root since I do not have SU and all the root app said I do not have root access. I was weary of doing it in the first place and not I just want to go back. Not worth it for me. So I guess I need to know..
1 - How to lock it back. It has the "Tampered" "Unlocked" message when I boot to hboot (hope I am using the right terms).
2- I dont think I need to "unroot" cause I was not rooted in the first place and I did not of course add any ROMS.
I have read a lot of info but am a little intimidated but I do have pc skills so I am not TOTALLY dumb. Just dumb to rooting.
I guess I am stuck in limbo with the rooting issues and just want my phone back to norm. It's because I have now seen little stupid things going on with it. Like my volume keeps resetting itself from vibrate. I put it on vibrate and it goes into low loud volume by itself. Something in the root I guess.
Please Help...
Thanks!
BTW I am on ICS.
The only way to remove the "Tampered" would be to flash an RUU. But you have to have your boot loader relocked.
So, relock your boot loader, and then run the latest RUU.

Ok Thanks Graywolf... but I have a couple of questions. From what I have been reading:
1- How do I "relock" the phone. Also I have heard relocking may cause it to brick? I am still "s-on".
2- Will flashing the RUU cause it to brick? I understand through various forums that if I flash the wrong ruu and go back to before my ICS update i cannot get the ics update. Is there a way to flash to the ICS update we received last summer?
3 - Will doing all of this fix the little problems I now have? Like I stated above.. my "vibrate setting do not stay on vibrate. I think if I let the phone screen time out itself (without pushing the power button) when I wake it back up it's on low volume instead of vibrate. If I push the power button to make it sleep, it tends to stay on vibrate. ALSO I now notice that if my wifi is on for instance at home and I leave the house it used to automatically go to 4g. now my radio stays off and i have to turn it on in the settings.
I guess in a nut shell.. if reverting it back will brick it, then I will have to put up with these bugs until I get another later on this year... probably in Oct.
Let me know and thanks alot for your help.:good:

I guess in a nut shell.. if reverting it back will brick it, then I will have to put up with these bugs until I get another later on this year... probably in Oct.
Let me know and thanks alot for your help.:good:

First, BACKUP ANYTHING IMPORTANT!
1. To relock the bootloader just reboot to hboot, and select "fastboot". Plug it in to your computer and (I assume you know how you unlocked it with fastboot commands) type into command prompt "fastboot oem lock".
2. The RUU will not flash unless your bootloader is relocked. So do step 1 first and then flash the OTA from this website.
3. An RUU will return your phone to the factory state. This should fix many problems that you may have.
RUU should fix things, and if it doesn't, then you know it is a hardware issue.

fastboot oem lock is not a file, it is a command.
Ok gotcha thanks. It just seemed I remember reading I had to download a file to that folder and then type the fast boot oem command. I will do it this weekend and report back how it went. Thanks!

Hey Gray... ok I was able to relock... however flashing to the RUU from the link you sent.. it didn't work. After I loaded the zip file onto the SD card.. it does nothing when I boot to bootloader... reads zip and comes back and says no image.
The question I have it since I never loaded a ROM or another RUU can I just wipe it from inside the menu and start from start?

Meant to quote, not thank.
Anyway, you could do a factory reset.

Well now that doesnt work. When I try to hard reset the message comes up that it is reseting.. then boots to hboot. It wont factory reset. I tried factory resetting from hboot and it does nothing.
The PH98IMG is not on my sd card... I actually took it out.
Can you reset from a command prompt? Hopefully that will work.

No.
Is your bootloader relocked?
Yes from hboot i have the "tampered relocked" message but it does say relocked. What command do you use to reset?

You either have to flash an RUU or factory reset.
Try this RUU:

Ok and since this is an .exe file...do I do it the same way? Drop it on to the SD card? Do
i have to rename it? Actually I found that I just download it to computer and run it.. does it matter the location of the file?
