Bought phone off of ebay, the incredible 2 is stuck on bootloader, i cant recover/factory restore, bootloader is locked and s-on, and computer recognizes it as a unknown device, although HTC sync recognizes it as an unknown htc phone. I've tried multiple times to load a few RUU signed stock roms, but nothing happens when its done loading in hboot. Do i have any options left or is it dead?

Just tried it, didn't work. My computer doesn't recognize it, says its an unknown device so i don't think i can do anything with it via usb. Although HTC serial interface pops up sometimes and when i click on it, it gives me driver details:
HTC Serial Interface (COM7)
Driver Provider: HTC corporation
Driver Date: 11/1/2013
Driver Version: 2.0.6.24

so idk if that's anything..

Are you on windows 8.? Win 8 has problems with adb. Try in a win7 machine.

sorry for late reply, no im on windows 7, but Ive tried to plug it into windows 8.1 and windows vista machines and the same thing, none of them recognize it. All i can do is load something onto the sd card for the incredible 2 to read from.
