ICS ROM bricked my Raider, has old hboot, unlocked, how to relock getting error

---

I have a soft-bricked Raider that I dont know the history of and looks like it was updated to a ICS ROM with out updating the hboot, it has hboot 1.83.0014 and unlocked, a getver all shows the version-main to be 1.65.666.3 so I google that up and found this ICS image...

So it appear I need to lock my bootloader and update the hboot.

When I run oem lock this is what I get.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>fastboot oem lock
...
(bootloader) Lock successfully...
FAILED (status read failed (Unknown error))
finished. total time: 0.022s

I let it sit for 15 minutes but no change.

what do I need to do to get my bootloader relocked?

That's relocked. Reboot into hboot.

I have do.e fastboot OEM lock 5 or more times on this phone and it says *** locked *** when I reboot into hboot

Maybe you can try this tool to wipe your device. I have no idea if it will work. It's worth reading up on though.

Tx I will check that when I get home

so ends up the EMMC chip has bad sectors and this is a problem with this phone. I ended up on freenode at #htc-holiday and had a good chat with IOMonster, so I will try to return the phone to HTC 866.449.8358 and if not I will do the following.

by the way fastboot boot recovery-beta2.img did get me into recovery -- strange no one pointed that out to me...

The above error is how I found out the EMMC chip has write errors.

I will try to remember to come back and post what happens when I call HTC tomorrow.
