[Q]bootloader unlock question - HTC Droid DNA

If I have my bootloader unlock.bin from when I was on 1.05 and now I am on the 2.06. Is possible for me to unlock my phone and get s-off?

U need to go back to 1.15 and unlock the bootloader. Then you can get s off. Look in the stickies section in the development room.

i think you should downgrade first

You can still unlock with it.

As long as the unlock.bin is from that device, it should work just fine. Boot into bootloader and see if you have all 1's, or 2's listed on the 2nd or 3rd line down first. If so, give it a try. It will either work, or it won't. Let us know.

But why do you not have supercid anymore. You will have supercid until you manually put it back.

PLEASE HELP!!! Stuck in fastboot

I am trying to go back to stock and i relocked the bootloader then it said Loading.....PH85IMG. Then it said Checking.......PH85IMG. After that it just went back to hboot. I have no idea why. Then I decided that i had to unlock the bootloader so i used the HTCdev method. I get to the last step that unlocks the bootloader. I type in the command then it just says waiting for device. I REALLY need help guys

Yes, I used pdanet which usually works all the time
Alright. So do you want to lock or unlock the bootloader? Your original post it kind of confusing.

I am trying to go back to stock. I locked it before to do that but it didn't work. Now I need to unlock it again
I figured it out. I got it unlocked. But.....why can i not go back to stock? I think it is because i still have Hboot .0004. Does anybody have the PH85IMG.zip file that i can go back to stock with for my recovery? It is very important because i am getting a replacement device
Well you need to reflash the stock ruu then relock the bootloader.
Edit:
If you look in development Xboarder has posted all the ruu files. The search bar would have found that for you. Xboarder also has a thread how to go back to stock.

That is what i tried. I need the older one for my version of hboot
I'm going to go on a limb here and not read the entire thread and just by the title, I can tell you that your bootloader is locked...unlock your bootloader and you won't have this problem!!! you are probably trying to flash an older .img file or something...unlock bootloader, once you're updated there's not way of going back to an older RUU, since baseband and kernel have been altered, I suggest you do an over the air update of the phone, and install the latest RUU that xboarder has provided. the only reason you would hang in fastboot is trying to flash a mismatched RUU.

oh ok..yea...then he's probably trying to install an outdated RUU or and incompatible RUU, same thing happened to me...so just like i stated...check your firmware version update to the latest 1.43 over the air...the flash RUU from xboarders page in develpment, I beleive he has removed the older RUU's so thats why you might have to do an over the air update, since older RUU's are not avilable..if you've already updated the firmware to the latest 1.43, then I believe you should not have a problem with the RUU. If you have not updated to the latest firmware...flash the stock recovery (you need this to get an over the air update), do an over the air update, then you can use the latest RUU. hope this helps...get back to me.

What firmware are you running currently?
If you have 1.43 then you need to relock your bootloader and flash a valid 1.43 PH85IMG.zip ruu.
You may also consider going back to stock rom, unrooting by rm /system/app/SuperUser.apk then flashing the stock recovery back. Afterwards relock your bootloader.
I am running quiksense Rom......

Let me rephrase.
What is your hboot version?
Did you ever install the 1.43 OTA firmware?

Then you have the 1.36 partitions with a rom based off 1.43 ruu.
That's probably why you're having problems.
Which RUU are you trying to flash?

You may need the 1.36 ruu and since the FBI shut down a lot of the mirrors we lost the links.
But all hope isn't lost. I still have the files! I'm working on uploading them now. It's just going to take about 5 hours for each and I'm uploading three for xboarder now.

^This.
Only way to get rid of it is to go S-OFF. Then you can use RegawMod's S-ON Tool to restore it to complete stock, with LOCKED rather than RELOCKED in the bootloader.

Part of the process should've included flashing an RUU. Didn't it? It says locked - isn't that what you wanted?

[Q] root, s-off WITHOUT htc dev

i know there is a lot of guides where is step by step how to do root and s-off with hboot 1.53 in phone. but ! i can not (changed mb) and i do not want either use htc dev unlock. is there any way (or will be) how to achieve root and s-off?
I doubt it.
What's wrong with HTCdev unlock metod? easy and secure way of unlocking bootloader , and s-off using wiretrick.
BTW-you can still back to original state for warranty reason.. Locked and so on
EDIT: Sry.. I did not read well.. (different motherboard)

Return to t-mobile

hey guys im returning my amaze to t mobile, so can i just send it with the stock ruu and re locked boot loader, or they might make me pay extra charges. i wanna return it because the buttons are not working correctly.
Return to stock as possible. Relock and flash RUU should be all you have to do....unless you changed your CID then you'll need change it back also..

Then a simple reflash to RUU will suffice. Good luck! I heard the S3 is having some fun with their rooting...
OK thanks. But at I'm worried about is that its going to say relocked

S-off

I'm not new to rooting, I've rooted Samsung phones, Motorola and nexus. This is my first HTC phone and man is everything different. Could some one please explain to me what S-off is using dummy terms lol. I mean if I root but stay s-on can you still flash Roms?
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Getting Soff can unlock you boot loader and if u do it through htc devs it unlocks your our boot loader but keeps Son but it's you use revone , it would unlock Son to soff and you are able to change CID and flash radios thru hboot but you can flash any rom that is compatible to the htc one but just unlocking the bootloader. You don't necessary need soff to flash Roma but it's good to have off thru if u want to return you phone back to the carrier and remove Tampered and return done back to stock !!!!

I'm not sure the last post was clear for a NOOB. S-On / Off refers to the security of the device. With S-On, the phone will only allow you to flash things built for your device. This prevents you from messing up the phone by flashing the wrong stuff or wrong area of the memory.
You can unlock your phone without S-Off, root it, and flash any ROMs you like, so long as they are for your particular phone model.
