thanks in advance
Unfortunately you cannot get another persons unlockcode.bin as these keys are unique to each phone. (As far as i know) If someone knows any different please shed some light on this. Now I got some good news and bad news. Good news is that it isn't you. Bad news is that there's issues with the dev site. Users have reported that it takes a long time to get their unlock codes. Unfortunately there's no way around this. Keep ttrying. Eventually it'll go through. Good luck.

Alright, thanks for the update and info. I will keep trying!
Clear the cookies and cache of you internet browser, And try again. It usually helped me with the site.
After I had my phone in for repair yesterday, I had to unlock the bootloader all over again. I went to HTC DEV and put in my code.
I'm still waiting on the emails. I tried about 7 times, attempting to get a new unlock_bin each time, and still have not gotten 1 email. I think they are experiencing a problem with their mail server. It wasn't in my junk mail or anything.
Try again later today, it may have corrected itself. I found an old unlock_bin that worked for me from a previous unlock.

I'm getting a new one today and will be going through this same thing apparently, I still have my old unlock code as well, But i'm pretty sure that wont work...
It wont send me the damn code either.
And I'm very experienced with this process, I've done it probably 10 times.
It just wont send.

I have read a few posts that the HTD dev bootloader unlock app on the htc website isn't working for the Amaze. Anyone else having this issue today?
I wasn't able to unlock my new T-mobile US Amaze today. I get blank errors.
The error page says:
Error Code: .
Error Reason: .
I was getting this same error but i thought it was because i relocked mine and was unlocking it again. Luckily i found my unlock.bin file from the first time so i was able to re-unlock mine. But yes i got the same error.
sent from my Amaze Quiksense 2.1.2 w/faux .006 kernel
Tried doing it for my friend today. I got the same issue.
same issue with me as well
I had the same problem. Thank god I found my unlock code as well. For awhile there I was sweating bullets. I guess either HTC is locking down for some reason or the website is just down. I don't know. Sucks tho. If you can't remember like I couldn't and since HTC won't give you any instructions after the error check out this this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L30M6j8Kt-8
Thanks for the video link!
I think this may be happening for other phones as well. It is hopefully just that the unlock program is down for the whole site and they didn't specifically take it off for the Amaze.
same issue here too.
Tried 3 phones. No luck.
Even though the error codes saying nothing for me, but i can see in the address bar that the page i have been redirected to is for a CID not allowed error.
Can you guys check what you address bar says at the error page?
I got an email not sent in the address bar.

Seems to be down again today. Been showing maintenance message since 07:00 GMT. The one day I go to unlock my bootloader on One X
Is HTCdev down for bootloader unlocking? i can get on at times but i can never get the unlock code. i was able to get to the ID Token page but wasnt able to get any further. :/ is it just me orr...
as of 2pm EST its down for me too. Sometimes it will let me in but while im rebooting my OG Evo to put the identifier token in it'll freeze then go back to the error message :"We are sorry, but this section of site is temporarily closed.
"
Who knows how long this will go on for? Ive read that its been down in the past for up to 12 hours

I've been trying to unlock bootloader on my Rezound I got yesterday, since about 10p last night Eastern.
Still no go. It's actually, really pissing me off. We shouldn't have to go thru their website to get this done.
I wish the people who are here on the forums would release the S-OFF stuff they've discovered.
What a crapshoot.

I was about to do it last night and decided not to yet cuz I was gonna try CleanTool (which no longer works....) But I held off and today all I can get is "We are sorry, but this section of site is temporarily closed."
same here as well
Site returns several errors on various stages of the walkthrough for me currently.
1. Typical access throttle message "you have exceeded the page load frequency" on either HTCDEV.com or on stage 1 or 2 of the unlock guide, which to remedy this I have to release/renew my external IP just to get back to htcdev.com
2. Receive blank white screen on stage one or two of the guide (If i even get to that point).
Has anyone found a maintenance log or down-time expectancy at all?
UPDATE!!
I got in!! it said token submitted!! still no email though. Waiting Patiently....
Works using Firefox. Dont use Chrome. That's what was wrong for me as far as i can tell.
sumit my token and WHERE IS MY DAMN EMAIL..been waiting since the damn morning only day off today to unlock the phone damn!
This is seriously so bloody frustrating, got my phone yesterday and I'm not going to start using it until I can unlock it, because I'll need to wipe it after doing so. I don't suppose there's any other way to generate a token?
Probably dumb suggestion since I am sure you checked,but check spam folder.

Frustrating. Just picked up my Rezound a few hours ago and I am getting to the same point of submitting my token and after a long delay it says the site is down for maintenance. Not a good first impression!
I'm also in the same boat of not wanting to use the phone until it's unlocked because it will end up being formatted.

yeah sadly its ip based not program i got the token accepted thing like 5 times. still no email. went from a locked down Droid x2 to an un-unlockable rezound (
Yep, same here now. Finally got it to go through once, but no email. Called HTC, got a fairly unfriendly CS rep that said "web sites go down from time to time for maintenance and it will be back up when they're done". I asked her if she was going to let anyone know and she said yes, but I doubt she will.
---------- Post added at 08:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 PM ----------
Called back because of how unpleasant the first lady was. Got a guy that was a lot more helpful. He said they are a completely separate entity from the dev side and that the only contact info they have is an email, but that he would fire one off. He also suggested everyone that is having a problem submit feedback through the link on the dev website stating that the token submission is broken and either throwing the maintenance error or saying it's sending an email but still isn't. I guess that's the best we can do right now.
"an unknown error occurred which may be a network connection issue. Please wait and try again later"
Has anyone figured out how to get rid of this error message? Pops up when I hit the final unlock button on the Asus app. I've been trying for two weeks :-(

Seems like the unlock-servers are down.
You linked to someone saying that someone else suggested this, i wonder if they heard it from their sister's old roommates cousins wife. Seems kinda crazy they'd be down for two weeks though...

I got this all the time when I first tried to unlock, until I remembered that I had made one small change to a system file. After I reverted that, it went through with now problems.
I think I actually ended up just downloading an ASUS firmware from their site and doing the sdcard method to put on a fresh stock firmware.
I hope that this helps you in some way.
I actually tried it on two devices, one freshly back from RMA, with fresh firmware. Same error.

They don't happen to have the serial number unknown issue do they?
I heard from an Asus tech weeks ago that the unlock servers were down. Not sure if they're still down though, mine still isn't unlocking.
Neither had the unknown serial issue. So anticlimactic, finally decided to void the warranty and the damned unlock app doesn't work.
Spoke with asus support techs on this issue they suggested firmware upgrade and retry.. no dice. The curious thing is they kept telling me my serial number was invalid even though I read it to them directly off the pads tag.. mine is a C3OKC series and registered fine on their website. I think based on my experience that asus has a serial number database issue that prevents unlocking of certain numbers and they ain't fessing up! Other posts in different threads seem to bear this out. hopefully, someone will release an alternative unlocker soon!

If they suspect your serial number is invalid, you wouldn't be able to update to v.28, correct? The OTA seems to work correctly for me, but I still can't unlock (using rootkeeper to back up root).

Their site is screwed up at the moment, you, me and a lot of others are getting the same thing. Once they decide to fix it, it'll be good to go again. I've been trying since 10am, only up till an hour ago did their site even load for me.

Same issue for me since Wed last week! I am beginning to think that $200 just doesn't buy as much company support as $600 does.... Will probably sell the device if I can't get the bootloader unlocked soon.

This has been happening since the day the phones came out. The good thing is that you only have to unlock one time. After a month with this phone, I am very happy with it. So don't let the unlock website ruin the phone for you. The rumor is that they run their website with hamsters, they probably tire easily. Small price to pay for such a cheap phone with such good specs.
I like the fact that Huawei has gone out of their way to tell developers how to unlock things and mess with things. Even one of their company reps has posted several times that he will give advice for those making mods.
Hello,
I had problems with the website as well - registering was fine, but the unlock part was always "busy".
I got my code by using the chinese part of the site - horribly slow, but it works.

Its been more than 32 days since I have bought my KIW-L22 (Indian version). I had no luck with site even though I used both IMEI numbers. Every time I do it, 14 days message appears. Its been more than 32 days and getting frustrated with it.

Hello, that won't do it, only the unlock does.
Unlocking the bootloader won't prevent OTA updates.
But custom recovery, like TWRP will. You will have to go back to stock before installing updates.

Not sure, if it's the same issue, but I think everyone has been misinterpreting the 14 days warning. What it says is the ID "has not been used on the phone for more than 14 days." While most people have understood that to mean "you have to have used the phone for 14 days," what I discovered it probably actually meant was "The ID you put in here has not been used on this phone for over 14 days" or, in my case "has never been used on this phone." I think the hard stop is trying to prevent granting unlock codes to inactive users, not new users. The second part of the equation is that the ID with which you log in has to be in some way tied to your phone. I had tried to log in with Facebook because my email registration had screwed up. I was getting that error because I hadn't used that Facebook account on my phone. So I downloaded the Facebook app, logged in with my account, and tried again. This time it worked!
TL;DR: Make sure you log into Huawei site using an ID (phone number, email address) that is actively tied to some account on your phone, be it Google, Facebook, etc, and you should get past the 14 days error.

I have created Huawei account using my yahoo email
Have installed Facebook app and login using the same yahoo email
Have installed yahoo mail app with same yahoo email
I still see the message
"The Huawei ID used to apply for the unlock code has not been used on the device for more than 14 days."
I was thinking of that in the same was as you @ultimahwhat thought, in previous two days in have installed almost every app published by Huawei and login using the same Huawei account by thinking it may identify my ID as "used in the device" still no luck.
Even I reset my phone to see if I missed something in initial setup like if I have skipped any Huawei login process in the setup process, but there is no such step in the initial setup.
So actually very disappointed and reall have no idea of what they say.
Feel like I would never buy any Huawei device again and never recommend Huawei to anyone.
This is gonna be my first and last Huawei device.
Dear @wimbet
Can you please explain what Huawei actually mean by that 14 days message and what Huawei expect user to perform for obtaining the unlock code as there is a big confusion in this matter?
I am very thankful for any information.
