Most of my problems came from USB drivers and Windows 8 complications. Make sure you still have working ones installed like from HTC Sync.

Essentially, I followed the S-OFF instructions exactly until step 8 (where you've booted Android w/o eMMC write protection.)

ok so fastboot commands worked for you ?

Yeah, adb and fastboot work for me until Android boots up.

Re: S-Off

After I get off work I will try and use the fastboot commands

Thx. I'm on Windows 7 but I re-installed HTC Sync and now adb is working for me with android booted.

Is your pc losing connection once u booted back into android? Right b4 u run the last 3 commands? Or is your adb not working b4 you've even tried to s-off? Cause my pc lost connection with my phone on that step also and I rebooted my pc and it fixed it for me. If this is not the problem your having then disregard

Not sure if this will help but here is a guy who was getting the 99 error after doing "fastboot flash zip ..." twice which caused data corruption: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=474

Appears that he went into recovery, wiped, and restarted the process. If you have a nandroid backup from before you started the S-OFF process you can try restoring that - it has worked for others. May lose some data but hopefully less than a full wipe.

Do people not know about titanium backup or apps like it. . You should never loose data from wiping your phone.
