Just seen jcase post that the rezound is on the unlock bootloader list on htcdev.com and he don't know if its a accident or what so you need to jump on it asap Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Though Unlisted, HTC Rezound Unlockable via HTCDev Tools http://bit.ly/tm4HPD (Phandroid article)
Sent from a Rezound, crappy camera included.
Just did mine.
What is this? Exactly.. can someone elaborate ? Is that unlocked bootloader thing for real?
You guys need to tell everyone if they use the HTC unlock then HTC has their phone info any can deny warranty repairs to their phones.

siiiiiiiick.
let's get some s-offy goodness!
woah, wait.....Im not new to flashing and modding, but I am very new to the HTC scene. Do we individually have to unlock the bootloader ourselves? Or is it something the devs do? If we (invidually) dont unlock today do you think that HTC will stop letting us tomorrow? I just dont want to kill my phone.

We individually unlock it. It's super easy. The instructions gives you screen shots of what to do. I just unlocked mine. Took about 5-10 minutes. I'm sure it will be available tomorrow but I didn't waste any time.
Tough to tell whether HTC did this on purpose or not. They very well might pull it later after they realize it/Verizon *****es them out.
I would at least go get the unlock token now, even if you don't want to use it right now.

I'll just wait for the devs to set it up where I don't have to give my phone info to vzw and htc. Might need my warranty some day.

Doesn't void your warranty to just get the unlock token... Only after you install it. But whatever.

I just don't see the rush, don't even have s-off or recovery yet.

Click on Unlock Bootloader. Follow directions. If you don't want to install the token, stop at the point that it emails you the token.

This htcdev.com unlock will allow you to flash custom ROMs, kernels, and recoveries. Sadly radios, hboot/bootloader, and I believe splash screens are a no go. Also, some things must be flashed via fastboot as opposed to recovery. (ie kernels) Considering this phone has some new security tricks not seen before its an ok trade while you wait for s-off IMO. I don't know if it will bring s-off any closer but I doubt it. I can't speak to the warranty situation but I would advise reading all the terms and conditions before proceeding. However consider this.....rooting your phone technically voids your warranty....

Yes perm root is as easy as flashing a recovery then using the recovery to flash the su and busybox binary. Then install superuser from the market and bam permanent root. (or just wait till someone makes a flashable package that will do all that for you.)

He could also mean unlocking his bootloader. Then that case go to www.htcdev.com and follow the directions. You will need to get a the token generated from initiating the get token command. Paste it in the box notepad and then paste it in the box on their website to generate the unlock bin code needed to complete the unlock process. It will be sent to your email address.

So..... lets say that i bought a sprint htc evo 3d and want to use it on my network(Bell) I would have to unlock it via htc dev? or unlock bootloader and s-off or get a unlock code?
do not worry, this is my 3rd smartphone and am pretty agile to unlock phone....just need to be pushed in the right direction.

The Sprint EVO 3D doesn't have a sim card. That means your phone has to be flashed to Bell. To do that, you need to bring it in to a Bell store. They should be able to do it.
It does not involve unlocking it via HTC Dev.
JuopunutBear and team have done it again. S-OFF for the EVO 4G LTE!
Root is required. Unlocked is NOT required... but supported! Support for Linux and Windows.

Cool.
Looks promising although since I've already unlocked via HTC dev what's the advantage of s off..as I understand we can already flash radios etc..also it requires root..how is that possible if u didn't unlock with HTC dev
I'm rooted but not unlocked with HTCdev. They are 2 different things.

why would i want to pay for insurance? my phone is covered under 1 year warranty. i change phones every year anyways. i never buy warranty for anything
So does this essentially unlock the bootloader and give s-off?
So can I run this with an unrooted phone? I was reading the pre requisite and said you needed to be rooted/temp, which doesn't that mean htcdev unlocked?
I want to avoid htcdev unlock...

Its basically what every has already done except your phone will say S-off instead of S-on....no additional features. U can do everything u were able to do before.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Cool. Once someone has a write up or script to relock, unroot, unlock again with s-off and reroot so i don't get that red text on boot let me know. That would be the only reason i care about this.
Hopefully the devs didn't waste a good exploit that could have been used on a phone that needed it.
I got a droid dna recently and I was thinking about rooting. The only thing that is holding me back is whether despite the lack of s-off, is it worth voiding warranty. Anyhow, I was wondering whether it is possible to bring the dna completely back to stock after rooting it just in case something goes wrong (Im planning on using the all in one tool kit for the root)
I believe it will still say relocked as opposed to locked.
And there's a toolkit for jcases method?

They won't notice at all. Sent so many phones in relocked, unlocked, even one rooted. Counting my blessings though everyday.

They don't check. They make sure it doesn't have any extensive damage then completely reflash the phone.

The change isn't permanent as far as I know. You should be able to re-lock it with fastboot oem lock.

You can also skip the htc process and just soff and use revone to unlock boot loader. head over to htc international and follow vomer's guide to soff if you have never done it. great guide. make sure your hboot is less than 1.54. its under the "one android development" may be a page back, but it is a wonderful guide.
Sweet thank you guys for all the help I've always had galaxy's and am so used to Odin hahah

I had that issue as well, when your copying the token ID you need to make sure you only highlight the characters exactly. I was highlighting just past the last character of the token, like an extra empty space and it gave me problems.
