OMG THIS IS AMZING! i just did the wire trick and after reading the detailed instructions it was easier to do than it seemed! thank u very much for all your work and effort

I have been trying and trying and trying (for about 8 hours now) to get this timing right. It WILL NOT go, I have tried different wires, different SD cards, and I am stuck at the green arrows.

Is there ANY way to back out of this?!?!?

I have tried the stock RUU, different recoveries, etc... and no matter what I boot to those arrows. I'm about ready to call this a brick....

I have no phone at all now... ugh... really bad situation...

djanness · Apr 23, 2012

the arrows are where you want to be that's when you do the wire trick. watch my video.. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25193262&postcount=196

make sure your seeing everything on the cmd prompts and listen for the USB disconnect sounds on your computer speakers

mine keeps saying adb server out dated. what should i do?

lgtsanev · Apr 23, 2012

Someone said his wire's end was bending, do you have to press more firmly on the Pin side (does it have to click) or just to touch it?

Download the latest SDK. Kill adb.exe in Task Manager

you just need to touch the contacts there is no click or snap

Here's what i did.. using twist ties...

Follow or look in the attachments.. this works for me.. I'm not saying it will 100% work at times but patience and retry is the key...

just make sure when you put the whole thing and the (B) touch the ground just bend it slightly upwards so you could press then re-press in ease...

hyperkamote · Apr 23, 2012

and here's the proof..

Download the latest and update, just run SDK Manager and look for what is needed to be updated (SDK Tools, SDK Platform Tools)

Myself and quite a few people used a small coated paperclip with the ends stripped clean. Worked like a charm.

I had one of those black wire twists that seemed pretty durable. I used my wire strippers and trimmed the ends off and it worked perfectly fine. Got the timing on the 3rd try.

So which HBOOT version does everyone have? I've got SHIP S-OFF RL 1.90.0808

I've been collecting various HBOOTS to possibly open a thread with all of them and state which ROM/Carrier they come from. I already have 1.90.0006 and 1.90.0008 along with 1.90.2005 ENG. If you can, do the following:

HOW TO DUMP YOUR HBOOT

Run the commands below using ADB:

cd c:\adb
adb shell
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p12 of=/sdcard/hboot.img

(Note: If your device is not detected, download and install HTC Sync)

Connect your phone in USB Mode, copy the hboot.img file from your SD card and upload it here.

I've got S-OFF as well now

It didn't wipe my SD card. not complaining, but curious

Lunaillij · Apr 23, 2012

Success!

Worked great. Tried a coax cable with no luck. So i ended up using a wire for a cat-5 cable. Took a bunch of tries but I finally got it.

Thanks Unlimited.IO

mrgwap · Apr 23, 2012

so this is to get s off am i correct? i downloaded the hboot file and i see 2 files.. a redme with the model number and a nbo. where do i put the nbo file?

djxspike · Apr 23, 2012

It works don't give up and be patient

Worked just fine for me... Took me a good solid thirty minutes of trying, but it worked!!!!

I used a small coated paper clip with the ends stripped off and bent so I could easily touch the ground (which is the metal piece that holds the SD card in place - no one ever specified, I had to figure it out).

The part that was throwing me off was that you have to touch ONCE UNTIL you hear the Windows USB "beep" noise then wait the 1.75 seconds and THEN touch it again.
