Did you follow all the steps exactly?
Try running an RUU and unlocking again.
Okay, so i have looked and searched all the forums and yet no answer..
First thing first: I have a Mac - so i found the thread for using the terminal and getting the unlock code from HTCdev - no prob it was easy
Now here is where I get stuck i save the Unlock_code.bin into my android folder but when I go into terminal I get this message and I have tried with diff. generated tokens and codes.
/android/fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
error: cannot load 'Unlock_code.bin'
Suggestions ??
Help!! and since I am a NOOB i can't post in the XDA developer forum where most likely there is an answer - no offense.
This might be a long shot, but when you copy and paste the code, is there something like INFO or bootloader in front of every line? I remember seeing somebody having that problem, and they were also on a mac. If there is, do the code without that and it should work.
I already did that received the email from HTCdev and the attachment saved it in my android folder and when I go to do the last step i get that error message.
You can't post in the dev forum because that is for releases only so you wouldn't be helped if you posted there. Have you tried flashing the token with windows? Does fastboot have the correct permissions to read and write to the folder?
huh
this is my 1st android phone... i have a macbook pro. So what do you mean flashing the token with windows?...permissions as far as? I'm on the verge of jus sayng f it.. not worth this much worth was easier to unlock my blackberry and my ipod than this smh...
hi.
im trying for a while now to get my att one x rooted so i can update the android version. currently running 4.0.3.
but when i go to the htcdev site but it always fails::
Error Code: 160.
Error Reason: MID Not Allowed.
i tried to change the cid with many software from the forum and in every one i get some kind of a bug or a failure and nothing happenes except the phone booting into the bootloader menu.
so please if any one has a good guide or can help me out it will be great!
thanks!!
I've tried on 3 different computers today and I'm having a lot of problems with the htcdev site. Especially with logging in. But the main problem when I finally reset my password and login is once I get to the identifier token part I successful get mine in fastboot and I paste it. Then I submit and the site just hangs. I've tried like 5 times and I'm thinking it has to be their site. I've done this before but it was on my old phone desire 601, this is on the replacement I'm simply trying to unlock the boot loader shouldn't be this hard.
Please help. Now the site seems to be working but the damn thing is saying my unlock token is wrong as in too long. Bull crap it's exactly how they say set it up. Can anyone share their unlock bin with me damn it this is so annoying!!!

HtC is more commited to GCHQ and NSA than to development so you must use the same computer to log into your email that you used to receive your token.

Hi there! I tried today unlocking bootloader on my HTC Desire 300 but it didn't work. I went to HTCdev site, made an account, logged in with it but the moment I log in it just logs me out so I can't even get to ,,unlocking bootloaderĖ.
Please help.
can you post the steps that you tried and the errors when it didn't work? Do you have an unlock code? How about one of the other sites offering unlock codes for HTC devices?

I decided to go with these instructiones ,,http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2602301'' and, according to them, first I have to unlock bootloader with HTC dev but I was unable to do that so right now I'm not sure what to do (I'm just a newbie in all of this so...XD).
When I first tried to log in HTCdev on Firefox it wouldn't let me (because the connection was not secure). Then I used Internet explorer and it would log me out whenever I log in.
Is there some other way to unlock bootloader so that I don't have to go to HTCdev?
you should be able to obtain the unlock code elsewhere.
