*.Those who using older version custom BlackRose(eg.111231), Since older version can't communicate with BlackRose installer so you need to follow my direction.
Once you follow my direction, you no need to do this later
1.customize same as previous partition layout using BlackRose editor(view "execute BREditor")
2.fastboot flash hboot hboot_brcust.nb0
3.fastboot reboot
*.If you are using MAC OSX and failed to install by using installer,
Download blackrose_manual_120421.zip and follow instruction in zip file
Change Log

Disable password protection (temporary)
*.As you know, there is no way to recover password.
That's why I designed 2nd password.
I received many message about forget password.
So I decided to disable password protection until I design new solution.
Fix stock BlackRose partition layout label.

FAQ
1.Phone is brick, dosen't turn on screen
You have flashed unsigned RADIO
If you want unbrick your phone, The answer is JTAG or HTC Service Center(The engineer can refuse to repair your phone)
2.Can I lock bootloader again?
To relock the bootloader, You have to achieve radio S-OFF(secu_flag=0), otherwise you would see the error [Lock Failed]
3.How to achieve radio S-OFF?
AT@SIMLOCK=7,0 or AT@SIMLOCK=8,0
I disassembled radio(AMSS)
it need HTC Special SIM-CARD or SIM-EMULATOR(XTC-CLIP)
but...
If we can disable SMI-MPU and modify only one byte to AMSS routine on SDRAM
We can achive Radio S-OFF without HTC-Special-CARD.
4.I can't update radio by using recovery.
If cache partition size less than radio image, you couldn't update radio by using recovery.
so I suggest a way to update radio
fastboot flash radio [RADIO IMAGE(e.g radio.img)]
5.I can't see my device when execute BlackRose installer
If you are using sense rom, adb device isn't worked.
You must install htc sync.
