Hey folks,
I already searched on XDA and the web, but found nothing helpful, so I decided to start an new thread:
I got my new ONE X PLUS just a few weeks ago and now I wanted to start with unlocking the bootloader and rooting it.
I already got some experience in unlocking, rooting and flashing with an HTC Incredible S and SE Xperia X8.
Prerequisites my Computer(win7 x64) fulfills:
Latest Android SDK installed
HTC Divers installed
Folder on HDD: C:\android\onexplus containing all necessary files.
So I followed all the steps on htcdev.com like I did with my Incredible S.
I´ve got my Unlock_Code.bin and wanted to flash that on my ONE X+.
So I executed
Code:
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
prompted the dialog on the phone with "YES" and got:
Code:
C:\android\onexplus>fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
sending 'unlocktoken' (0 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.126s]
writing 'unlocktoken'...
(bootloader) unlock token check successfully
FAILED (status read failed (Unknown error))
finished. total time: 49.707s
When I boot into bootloader again, it displays "unlocked" (see attached picture),although fastboot displayed an error.
So I tried to root it via rootboot, like mentioned in a whole lot of tutorials.
This is, what rootboot.bat returns to me:
Code:
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
mount: Operation not permitted
failed to copy 'Tools/su' to '/system/xbin/su': Read-only file system
failed to copy 'Tools/Superuser.apk' to '/system/app/Superuser.apk': Read-only file system
Unable to chmod /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
Press Enter
That seems to me like unlocking has failed and the phone is still locked.
When I want to lock it again via
Code:
fastboot oem lock
, fastboot displays the same error, but the bootloader again says locked!
Problem sources that I kicked out already:
Changed USB Cable and Port
Phone was always charged at least 90%
Reinstalled latest HTC Drivers and Android SDK & restarted the PC
Submitted my OEM_Identifier_Toeken again and got a new Unlock_Code.bin
Deleted all my old Files from rooting and flashing the IncS & X8
got a new folder (C:\android\onexplus) with all necessary files
Tested whole procedure also on a x64 Linux Box(latest Archlinux release): Same result: fastboot displays error code, but the Bootloader says "UNLOCKED". Interesting fact: The error on linux differs from the one on windows:
Code:
[email protected]:~/android: sudo ./fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
sending 'unlocktoken' (0 KB)... OKAY
writing 'unlocktoken'... INFOunlock token check successfully
FAILED (status read failed (Cannot send after transport endpoint shutdown))
I am at my wit's end, obviously I did something wrong, but what ? Or is the device correctly unlocked and I just failed on rooting it ?
Is there another way to check if the device is correctly unlocked?
I don´t know if it´s useful, but here´s the result of "fastboot getvar all":
Code:
C:\android\onexplus>fastboot getvar all

After reinstalling the whole HTC Drivers and software pack, to have a clean base; Now I encounter another error when I execute
Code:

This time fastboot reports the following error:

Another thought: Could this be a problem with the bootloader and fixed by installing an new RUU by HTC ?
And, like mentioned above, is there any way to check if the device was unlocked correctly ?

I'm no expert but on the past 4 HTC phones I've unlocked and the several I have unlocked for friends this error with "to many links" always comes up and says failed. It has never stopped any device I have from functioning.

The too many links error, is usually cause you have more than one android device connected, or running the android emulator.

Never had more than one plugged in and never had emulator running. Either way it sounds fixed.
Absolutely fixed
Thanks a lot for the tips you two, great job! :good:
HOX+ running perfectly rooted.
Thank you

I see a little old but how did you fix this issue leuprechtroman? I am running into the same type of error.
Yes, I'd like to know too what was the way out of this?

Hi,
Unlocked my wife's Legend using the HTC-Dev method. Installed CM7 and she was happy... Now she is missing the HTC weather animations and wants to go back to the stock Froyo.
I have the correct RUU for her phone, carrier, and region, extracted from:
RUU_Legend_BellMobility_WWE_2.02.666.3_Radio_47.37.35.09_7.08.35.05_release_130094_signed.exe
First I tried to flash by renaming the rom.zip to LEGEIMG.zip. The bootloader saw it and chewed on it for a while, but the RUU ended up not being applied and the phone booted back into CM. Confusing.
Next attempt: fastboot, with bootloader unlocked.
Code:
[[email protected] ruu]# [B]fastboot erase cache[/B]

[B]FAILED (remote: 99 unknown fail)[/B]

Did some more reading, found that RUUs only apply when the bootloader is locked. So I relocked the bootloader with fastboot oem lock and tried again:
Code:
[[email protected] ruu]# [B]fastboot erase cache[/B]
< waiting for device >

And trying the LEGEIMG.zip method after relocking:

Do you want to reboot device?
Here are my bootvars:

(bootloader) boot-mode: RUU
(bootloader) commitno-bootloader: dirty-39ec9098

Apparently this means that I'm trying to flash an RUU that is older than what is on the device. The problem is, the RUU update that I last applied was the HTCDev one to allow unlocking. So the most recent "full" RUU is older than the HTCDev RUU and I can't seem to downgrade.
Am I missing something? I must be missing something. Please help, or the wife will have one up on me. Can't allow that
Hello,
try this ROM from BlaY0, its an improved stock ROM and you keep root.
When I remember right, there was no version check during installation, you can install it with Clockwork mode Recovery.

Thanks, that's an acceptable workaround for now. I ended up going this route. Since CWM 5.X doesn't like "amend" scripting, it took some doing though. :highfive:
If anyone knows of a way to downgrade to a stock RUU after applying the HBOOT 1.02 RUU to the Legend, that would be a help.
I'd suggest if you really need to go back stock froyo it can't be done with hboot 1.02, I have tried various different methods with no success.
I can't remember who, but some where on legend forums (I think in the dev section) there is a method to downgrade back to hboot 1.01, if it works you can do it and flash ruu. I can't confirm if it works or not.

Yeah, that sounds right.
So for anyone reading this thread in the future, if you've unlocked your bootloader using HTC-dev you will be unable to return to stock Froyo using an official RUU without first downgrading to HBOOT 1.01 or older.
The HBOOT downgrade process is pretty involved. You need a goldcard and the hack4legend kit. See this thread for details.
And for good measure, here's a thread with someone else working out the same problem we just worked out here... :silly:
At the end of the day, if you ran a nandroid backup of your stock ROM before blowing it away, you won't need all this jazz.

You can take an older Versin of CWM ( recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-legend.zip ), ther are no problems with scripting, a google search brings several results.
If necessary, you lan load the old version of CWM from the new version and then you can flash this ROM !
I was going through the steps to try to flash the Google Edition ROM onto my T-Mobile HTC One using this guide: http://htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-...with-bootloader-recovery-ota-updates-0148068/
I have unlocked the bootloader, rooted, and gotten S-off. I'm on Step 3, changing the model ID if necessary. I was stupid and was not reading carefully enough, and missed the edit at the top of the section saying I didn't actually need to change this. So I went to the guide he linked to: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2322820
In this guide, I downloaded the PL83IMG.zip and edited the text file to put in my current Model ID, Cell ID, and ROM version. Rezipped, then did the command he gives:
Code:
c:\sdk-tools>fastboot flash zip android-info.zip

finished. total time: 2.653s
Ok, now as he says in the guide, I saw the HTC logo and a progress bar that was sitting at about 3/4 done. He says to reboot the phone, so I did this. The screen remains blank, I don't get the gray spotted screen he describes. I tried the "fastboot oem writemid PN0712000" command, and it just sat on "< waiting for device >" for a long time, until I finally cancelled the command.
I can still get into the bootloader by holding down power and volume down, but if I try to boot normally or boot into recovery, the screen just turns off and remains off. Also, the device can no longer be recognized on my computer. I get a popup from Windows saying "the last USB device connected to this computer malfunctioned, Windows does not recognize it." And neither adb or fastboot can see that there is a device connected.
So...is my phone bricked? Is there some way I can recover from this? I assume the problem is this HBOOT that I flashed. This is what I'm seeing on my bootloader screen
Code:
*** LOCKED ***
M7_UL PVT ENG S-OFF
CID-T-MOB010
HBOOT-1.39.2000 (PN0713000)
OpenDSP-v32.120.274.0909
eMMC-boot
I do notice that it changed to LOCKED from UNLOCKED and TAMPERED.
Mine followed the same pattern. You should be able to make sure your in fastboot and write your CID and MID and then run an RUU through the fastboot OEM rebootRUU command

Hi,
I have a Motorola XT925 that appears to be unrecoverable and I was wondering if anyone here has been able to solve. I have looked through this group and there seems to be similar issues but non resolved for my particular issue.
When the phone attempts to boot I get the "Encryption unsuccessful" message with a "Reset phone" button that does nothing. According to other posts I have read on this error, if I could unlock the bootloader (and wipe the device) all would be well, however, when I get the phone into fastboot mode and attempt the unlock (as detailed on the Motorola website), it states the phone does not qualify for bootloader unlocking.
I see there is an exploit that can unlock the bootloader if the phone has root installed, however this phone does not and will not boot...
Is there anything that can be done?
Do you have the unlock key?
If its an xt925 ,it should qualify for unlock.
Make sure you update your drivers, try using another port (2.0 preferably), and that you copy the string correctly.

Thanks for replying, you are indeed correct. I must have cut and paste the unlock key incorrectly. However, I still do not think thing the phone is functioning correctly as I am not able to do anything with the fastboot command. I can not erase/format partitions (userdata or cache), I can not flash either the recovery (to CWM) or boot partitions and can't even boot the phone directly to the recovery image.
Here are some outputs from the fastboot:

Not sure what the Variable not supported message is, however even when I unlocked the device, there was a message saying that it was unable to erase partition.
Any ideas?
Drivers, could be the reason. Try re-installing.
Also, use 'mfastboot' and see if the issue persist.

Hi guys, I read thousands of post and didn't found a similar case to mine. This is what happened (sorry for my english, i speak spanish )
I bought my HTC One X+ on eBay believing it was the international version because they sold me unlocked and cleaned, but after flashing a wrong firmware version (thousands of times) I realized that my phone is the AT&T or Telus (evitare_ul) version :crying:
I was so desperate that even I changed the CID (I was S-off). At the beginning had SuperCID, now I have HTC__001 and the worst of all is that I changed the android-info.txt file from these kernels https www androidfilehost (dot) com / ?w=files & flid = 32755 and i flashed.. PUM hboot bricked, I know I'm a fool my fault, i didn't read the warnings.. :crying:
- I trying different RUU for my wrong combination of CID (HTC__001) and modelid: PM631**** and I didn't found.
- I downloaded the source code from htcdev (dot) com / devcenter/ downloads but I don't know what combination i have to do. I need some extra help to build a new firmware for my rare combination of CID, hboot, baseband version and modelid
I need your help please!

If you can issue fastboot commands, you can issue fastboot flash recovery recovery.img >
Select hboot (ignore the crap that shows up)
Select recovery
You CANNOT flash the modified sense rom's in fastboot as the MD5's or whatever the hboot looks for are wrong, hence the wrong signature.

I can't flash anything because i'm S-ON, I'm stuck in RUU mode and I think that the only way to revive my phone is with an original RUU.exe (that doesn't exist because i changed my CID) I tried with all these RUU (www androidruu com / ?developer=EvitaRE) and i get the same error about the signature or wrong model.
I don't know if compiling from the source code (www htcdev com / devcenter / downloads) with my requirements would work, but I will pay the person who do that and makes a zip signed or encrypted firmware capable to flash in my phone...
I'm about to buy an used board to replace my f***g bricked HOX+
I don't know what to do. I'm about to give up :crying:
I extracted the rom.zip from this RUU RUU_EVITARE_UL_JB_50_S_Cingular_US_2.15.502.1_Radio_2.21.5517.15_18.27.11.35L_release_341689_signed_0220.exe

I want to edit the android-file.txt from the .zip to put my CID HTC_001 (that i changed for fool) but i need to resign or encrypt the zip before flashing again. Is there a tool that do that? I think i'm screwed :crying:
Also, i can't do the same step with this RUU_EVITARE_UL_JB_45_TELUS_WWE_1.15.661.11_Radio_1.09.55.17_18.20.95.55L_release_290307_signed because the zip is corrupted, i downloaded several times

Anyone have the version not corrupted of this RUU? I downloaded the corrupted from www.androidruu.com/?developer=EvitaRE
Thanks!
Are there no other WWE evita ruus you can find? I agree you are probably out of luck, but that would be the only way to fix things that I can think of.
I think, though, you've learned why it's a very bad idea to go back to s-on after modifying your phone. There is no good reason to ever do it, and the risks are large. You changed around a whole bunch of basic settings and firmware, and then locked them down before determining if your phone was stable.
If the ruus don't work, a repair shop with jtag might be able to fix it by flashing the motherboard directly.
Okay, lets just recap.
So you flashed a kernel that was not supported by your model and now the device wont boot. So you tried to flash a ruu, but couldnt find one with your cid. So you changed your cid and re-applied s-on?
So no ruu flash occured?
Just the bad kernel flash?
Then how about this for a plan.
1. htcdev unlock the bootloader.
2. Flash a compatiable custom recovery from your device specific section.
3. Flash a compatiable custom rom for your device, thus making it boot again.
If your hboot has not been damaged ie wrong hboot flashed then a htcdev unlock should work fine. No ruu needed, not that they will work without the mid and cid matching.

Jtag, my last chance
Hi guys, thanks for your help
iElvis, you right, I did things that I didn't know what it was about, I was so desperate.
I'll send my phone to a repair center where use the JTAG. Thanks for the info, I didn't know there was such thing :good:
heavy_metal_man
Yeah, that's the summary of what I did.. but.. I can't go back to the recovery (hboot don't work), i'm stuck in ruu mode (black screen with htc logo), So, I can't unlock de bootloader because I can't go in fastboot mode, I'm S-ON and everything I've tried I get this error: FAILED (remote: not allowed) :crying:
If you know someone (an oriental guy hahaha) that know how to encrypt a modified zip RUU to flash in ruu mode, please let me know
Thanks for everything :good:
Cheers.

Try the command
fastboot reboot-bootloader
To get out of ruu mode.

No man, It brings me back to the ruu mode, i damaged my hboot
Guys, I will try this tool to encrypt the ruu.zip with the modified CID, i'm installing a linux virtual machine.. I will keep you informed...

Bad news
I re-encrypted a ROM, but I have the same issue about the signature..
"The leading 256 bytes is the signature of the zip file, you'll need to disregard it. There's no way we can sign the zip correctly without HTC's private key"

Sending to a Jtag repair center...

Are you still able to unlock? I have the same issue too. Stuck here
I don't know if this one helps you too but I was unable to unlock bootloader from bootloader mode and I tried it from download mode. It was successfully done with fastboot.... command. Root? I used Magisk. only problem is it takes 5 minutes to start up every time I reboot.
