have you tried placing the unlock token from email into fastboot. where you would usually do fastboot commands? i had to do that in order for it to unlock again

are you sure you have the command properly? therefore: "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin" without the quotes?
Yep, I'm not a noob, by far. I've developed 3 roms, so I know what I'm doing, I just need to know why the code isn't sending to the phone, I've installed all the proper drivers, followed each step exactly, it just doesn't want to send the code. My guess is that there's something on the phone preventing the code from transferring over. Sorry if I sounded kinda douchey, my friend is kinda riding my ass about this, so I'm kinda getting a little frustrated

Just because you're developed 3 ROMs doesn't mean you can't show a little manners when asking for help. Nor does it mean you didn't miss a basic step: working in IT for years has taught me that even somebody who knows what they're doing can miss something sometimes.

I know, I apologize if I sounded like an ass, I'm just getting impatient with him and I'm redirecting it towards you guys, which I shouldn't be doing, so again, I apologize. I triple checked USB Debugging, and still can't figure this out.. I ran the adb devices command, and his device didn't pop up, yet every other command (adb reboot bootloader, fastboot oem get_identifier_token) succeeded just fine. I'm confused with that, I think it might have to do with the problem, but again I could be wrong. I started over from step 1 twice, and it still didn't work. It's either my computer (which I doubt, it works fine with my phone) or his phone at this point.

Try uninstalling the drivers for the phone and get the latest drivers from HTC Sync.
If that doesn't work, try either a different computer, or if you have another OS installed on your computer (dual booting Windows / Linux), boot into the other one and try using ADB on that.

About a month ago I went through the hboot downgrade process to try to get s-off. I had all the right drivers installed and everything else. Revolutionary just kept giving me an invalid beta key. Because revolutionary didn't work I updated back to hboot 1.5 cause I already had root with that. With the New ics roms coming out and having to update the firmware, I decided to do the downgrade again, but revolutionary refuses to work. Invalid beta key is the message I get. And to get to the point, I want to know if anybody has any solutions for this. I've heard of a few people that said one week it didn't work and next week it did, or other stuff. Anybody have any helpful information?
Any tips or tricks are appreciated, will try just about anything

Does revolutionary actually use your actual serial # to check against the beta key? Meaning, if you had another one that worked (like mine) and used it, would it still refuse because it doesn't match your device?
This sounds elementary, but are you typing in the Serial yourself or are you cutting and pasting the serial # from the revolutionary prompt? When I ran revolutionary, it prompted me for the beta key and had my serial # in brackets, like [HTC2018482] or whatever. I copied everything into the brackets, pasted it into the site, and got my key that way. It might be a good way to make sure you're getting the same values that revolutionary is seeing.
When I used it, I had to copy and paste the key, manually retyping it didn't work. Hopefully this helps

You have a point, but I can't use any if the ics roms. They all reboot on me. After flashing I can't even unlock the screen cause it reboots. Also, when official ics is out I'm going to need to update the firmware. I don't want to get stuck with another hboot with the update

I'm thinking about intentionally bricking it and taking it to Sprint and I'll either get another one or something else. Not sure what to do yet. I guess I'll wait till official ics and see if there is anything new to help with the hboot and if not I'm getting rid of this. As much as I love HTC this might be my last one cause of all this hboot and bootloader crap

Try turning the anitvirus protection off. Then reboot your pc/laptop. Then run the exe.

What I think could be :
When you have generated the Revulutionary key you were in HBoot version 0007/8
Now your HBoot version is 1107/8.
I do not know if there is a kind of check intergrated between the generated key and the tool which could cause your trouble ?
I had this problem when I was first using it. What I did was to copy the key and then paste it into wordpad and then I typed it manually when asked and that worked for me.

Okay so here's the deal. I was attempting to add some tweaks to file systems (system, devlog, and cache). I flashed my ROM with the tweaks included and then powered off from recovery because I had to pick a friend up from work. I came home and when I turned my flyer on it just booted to a black screen. So I tried rebooting into bootloader and recovery through adb and they both rebooted to this same black screen. No htc splash or anything.
Things I have tried:
Re-flashing recovery
Running RUU's
Re-flashing bootloader
Flashing zips through fastboot from Globatron's HC upgrade thread
Letting it die and trying again
Pretty much everything I can think of
When I flash any zip through fastboot, it says something like "Failed: remote id".
When i run any RUU, it says either that the battery is too low (which I know it isn't because I've charged overnight) or that it can't continue because there is a model ID error. I've tried using RUUs from the 3g flyer, wifi flyer, and US wifi flyer (I own the US wifi version) and they all say the same thing.
I still have adb and fastboot access, so I'm confident that this is fixable, but it is beyond my knowledge now and I need your help! So please if you have any suggestions, throw them out here! Let me know if more details are needed.
I tried looking at other "my Flyer is bricked" threads but none seemed to help my current situation.
Figures I was going to start working on my ROM again and this happens
Maybe
Fastboot erase cache
Almost sounds like you are in download mode. I have read in a couple threads allong the way of people finding themselves there but struggling to get out
Yeah I've tried that already with no avail. It's so weird. But how would've this triggered download mode?
yea I am not sure, nor am I sure my idea holds any water since you have allowed your flyer to completely drain. I believe that once you did that and it charged enough to power on you would be out of download mode. I think. when you do an adb reboot or fatboot reboot recovery it does appear like your flyer is rebooting? I know the end result is a black screen, but is it seamingly turning off then on again?
Well when I reboot it just sits at the black screen and vibrates once. It might go dark for a second but I would have to check again, and it is charging right now.
I don't like bumping threads, but I'm pretty desperate here. I tried fooling around with it some more and I still have nothing. Any input at all would be appreciated

Well that's the thing, I'm never really in the botloader. I'm at a black screen no matter what I do however I can still use fast boot and adb. I might try that when it charges again.
Whenever I try to flash a zip through fast boot it says "failed remote id not allowed"
I'm thinking maybe it has something to do with the boot loader but I really haven't got a clue. When I type fast boot getvar all it says that I'm still s-off.
I even tried changing my main version to no avail.

Sadly, I think you're right I just tried to unlock my bootloader as a last resort and I got to the point where you use the volume buttons to make an on screen selection and that screen never popped up. So I guess my screen really is dead..
Yeah it sucks but I've found stuff on mobile devices tend to just up and die without warning, I guess your best bet is HTC support. I know someone on here had a bad charging jack and wasn't able to revert to stock and they still honored his warranty and fixed his flyer

Are you referring to boot loader unlock or the S-off method? Just to be clear.
Sorry, should have clarified lol. The bootloader. I ran the RUU and tried loading the P98IMG of the 2.3.4 update. They installed just fine, but still can't see the token. So, downloading the ICS RUU and hoping that'll do the trick.

lol that's what I figured. The actual process is overly simple and I'd rather do things by ADB. I'm putting in the command correctly, I'm in fastboot, running CMD as admin...just won't take. I called HTC and they said they wouldn't help me because it can void my warranty -_- It's all good, though. I need to send this phone back. The screen isn't in all the way and constantly has to be pushed back down.
Well, looks like I can't unlock it at all. Ffffffuuuuuuuuuu
had to get a new phone because of previous issues with the screen, now im trying to unlock bootloader again, and now when i go to fastboot, the computer says it cant recognize whats inputed...is it because im on windows 8? all im trying to do is get the token and it just says waiting for device...

Hey guys. Well, like the title says ......
Im having trouble flashing unlocktoken. Ive never had this problem before, but then i was using my win7 dell.
Ok, so, im using windows xp, i have adb installed, fastboot, and drivers. The laptop reads the device fine, and fastboot works, somewhat. Lol. But adb is a no go.
So, obviously i was able to pull my unlock_code.bin using fastboot. But when i try to flash it, this is what i get.....
Sending unlock_code.bin 0kb.......
And thats it? It just hangs. I see one problem being the size is 0kb. The size should read 1kb. Ive tried redownloading the code numerous times, ive tried replacing the adb, and fastboot files as well. ive also tried rebooting the laptop.
Im at the end of my rope, with this damn laptop!!! Ill have my dell back soon, and cant wait! Xp sucks!
Anyways, any thoughts guys? I appreciate it.

the solution to this is to create another htc dev account with another email address and get another token.
If THAT one has a zero byte size when you save it from email, maybe your antivirus is doing something to it
