Hey guys,
i need a downgrade without using htcdev.com.
Why without?
The Unlock_token.bin, that they send, wasn't correct. I tried to flash the token and every time it said " remote:"Unlock Token check failed"".
The Phone was rooted and unlocked, but then i have bricked it and send it to repair @ htc.
After they reinstall a new "mainbord", htvdev never work...
It's Hboot 1.53.0007... -> so, revolutionary doesn't work...
It's there a chance to downgrade without unlocked Bootloader?
Or unlock the Loader without htcdev?
First yeas, look in this section for e.g. Juopunut Bear.
Second, this is developer section, not Q&A!

Hi everyone, i 'm going to be concise. I own an HTC onex+ international version (it should be no brand) and i would like to unroot it and reset to factory for a warranty issue. I'm extremely noob so i would like, if it's possibile, the fastest, easyest and safest way to do so.
On internet i found several guides about it as http://onexroot.com/one-x-unroot/how-to-unroot-rooted-htc-one-x/ or http://theunlockr.com/2012/12/28/how-to-unroot-the-htc-one-x-2/ BUT i found also an xda tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1870652&nocache=1 that sounds appropriate to me; i read on other forum that i need some kind of extra instrument like boot.img
There are some things to take note of. The boot.img and HBoot image flashing requires users to get their own files as those are device specific and aren’t included

actually i have no idea where get it and how use it. I would be very gratefull if some of you could explain to me step by step how to do the unroot.
ps. i just rooted and put inside the cmw under the instruction of friend of mine but i don't really understand how i did it.
thank you in advance.
relock bootloader and install RUU and you are back on Stock
but would you be back on stock for a warranty issue, you didn't must do that.
warranty has nothing to do with your firmware or root or bootloader unlock.
they would be erase all at your phone and flash the RUU

thank you for your reply but the problem is that actually i don't know how to relock booloader and what RUU is; that's why i was lokking for a step by step guide. I may follow and understand a little the guide of before but i'm not safe that it works with htc onec+ too.

really? i belived that an "unlocked" phone was an enough reason to invalidate the warranty isn't it?

if you dont touch the bootloader it says: LOCKED
if you unlocked bootloader it says: UNLOCKED
if you relocked bootloader it says: RELOCKED
we can never go back to LOCKED (RELOCKED is technical the same like LOCKED, but it shows as RELOCKED) all people can see that the bootloader was touched by the user
so it cant the reason for that
to relock:
boot into bootloader
and execute this command in fastboot:
fastboot oem lock
now you can install your latest RUU (RUU is the Stock Firmware from HTC as *.exe to install from Windows [depends on your CID])

Doesn't the phone have to be complete stock when you do the unlock code? Once you unlock the SIM and put your new SIM in then you unlock the bootloader and do your root. Not sure but it could be the reason.

Hmm. Im stock just rooted and bootloader unlocked. I dnt think that would affect the unlocking procedure. But then again, im unsuccessful so far. I will try to revert to complete stock. And try the code again. Also should i revert back to jellybean? Or kitkat fine?

I would think as long as it is stock the version would not matter.

ok. i downloaded an RUU file. legit and with matching MD5. when i run it it asks to update to 4.20.502.1 ....from my 4.18.502.7. should i stay away from upodating it to 4.20.502.1 ....or its ok?
update: i have reverted back to stock 4.4.2
i removed s-off and locked the bootloader. and RUUed the 4.4.2 update.
but i am still getting incorrect code.
so frustrating.
I'm in the same boat. All stock kit Kat. Unlocked boot and rooted. If I figure it out will post here & would do like wise.
Sent from my XT907 using xda premium
Cellunlocker.net does a freakin awesome job!
can any one help please.
i bricked my phone but did the ruu after relocking the bootloader. Now it says relocked in the fastboot mode.
i tried google to look for answers but could not find any.
by the way i have s-off which i guess is a problem.
so could anyone tell the way around it to reunlock the bootloader so i can root and install updated roms .
thanks in advance.

The method is the same for S-OFF as S-ON. Since, you are S-OFF you can use the Guru Bootloader Reset tool in TWRP after you unlock it the HTCDev method.
You do not have to relock your bootloader to run RUU or firmware when you are S-OFF.
Hi everyone.
I'm S-off, SuperCID, 4.16.401.9 firmware, and I re-locked my bootloader while troubleshooting an adb problem.
Is there a simple fastboot command that'll unlock my bootloader again?
I can flash recoveries via the Flashify app, but I can't do much via adb anymore.
Thanks!
How did you unlock it the first time? HTC Dev Im assuming,should still have the unlock token bin file...thats run from bootloader via fastbootusb command...This should be in Questions and Answer forum...??

That's weird.... I thought I posted this in the Q&A forum. I was just in there looking for it and I thought it'd gotten deleted or something. Oh well.
Mods, please feel free to correct my goof.
I didn't use HTCDev to unlock. I just did Sunshine and it handled everything. S-off, unlock, and root - Talk about painless! After that I installed a custom recovery (Philz) and I was off to the races.
So I decided to SuperCID my phone so I can install whatever I want. No problem.
Then I tried to install 5.0.1 firmware (4.16.1540.8) so I could run SkyDragon, but the firmware posted on page 1 in the thread would not install- 4.16.1540.8
Kept giving me "FAILED (REMOTE:24 parsing android-info fail)"
I was able to install 4.16.401.9 with no major headaches, once I found a sensible upgrade path. That one is working fine, but I don't understand why 4.16.1540.8 would not install.
After googling the error, I found a post from Scotty a while back that said the phone wanted to see a stock recovery, locked. So I thought I'd throw the old recovery back on and do the 'fastboot oem lock' command . I didn't think it would impact the phone's operation since it is S-off. Well, the command worked, but I still wasn't able to flash the dang firmware I wanted to my phone.
So now I'm S-off, locked bootloader, PhilZ recovery (put it back on with Flashify), SuperCID, on Lollipop, and I guess everything is ok. But I still don't understand why the phone wouldn't take the firmware.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
If you ran sunshine on it,you can run it again i believe on that same device. It should unlock it again,if not then can try htcdev as it also uses fastboot to unlock as long as you can get adb to show needed code.

In the past (at least on my One X EVITA) my understanding was that s-off meant that all security was bypassed. Meaning that bootloader check was effectively bypassed.
This isn't the case for the M8. From what I can tell a LOCKED bootloader still prevents you from flashing anything that isn't signed (anything "unofficial") even if s-off.
However, having an UNLOCKED bootloader doesn't seem to affect anything while s-off. Meaning you can do things like RUU when UNLOCKED (which normally needs to be LOCKED or RELOCKED if s-on).
In short, I don't ever recommend relocking the bootloader if s-off on this device. There isn't any reason to, as far as I can tell. Meaning, having an UNLOCKED bootloader doesn't prevent you from doing anything. However, a RELOCKED bootloader does (even when s-on) prevent some things.
Hi, i ejecute "fastboot oem lock" and my bootloader gets "Relocked", how i can get "Unlocked" again? i tryed to donwgrade from 5.02 to 4.1, but i fail, now i want to get unlock again, help me plese. :crying:

to unlock your bootloader you have to use the method made for your bootloader, if there is one.
downgrade is only possible while s-off, btw.

Hi. Many thanks. I used sunshine to unlock and s-off. When I open sunshine again it says it's already rooted and I can't unlock bootloader. Any idea?

if you used sunshine s-off, you are already able to downgrade. if you are s-off with that method, and most others, you dont need to relock to downgrade. just flash ruu through fastboot. for that issue, contact sunshine. never been in that situation but you should still downgrade if S-OFF'ed.
