edit:
Well, I've got some comments on that..
For whom is interested of knowing the OEM commands, in fastboot write "fastboot oem h".

"adb pull /dev/block/"""mmcblock123""" misc.img" won't work as this is a partition, not a folder.

I suggest using this:

adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17 of=/sdcard/misc.img
exit
exit
adb pull /sdcard/misc.img misc.img
adb shell rm /sdcard/misc.img

Well, basically, my bootloader is locked, but for some reason, I have "HTCUUpdate", so it's kinda strange.

It would be great if anybody could post his misc.img of his unlocked bootloader so I can compare and tell what's wrong.

Cheers!

 

[seaskyways]

Thanks claudenegm ! will add the code !

 

[fardjad]

I doubt if this works, the unlock_status flag is stored in radio NVRAM and what is stored in misc partition is for RUUs to check it.
Since I don't have a locked device, I can't test it but what claudenegm said kinda confirms this.

EDIT
I can confirm patching the misc partition doesn't have any effects on unlock status.

Hi.....seaskyways i am follow the step by step to done it extract misc.img from my htc sensation xl...but i can't get the part,
'9- Around the 10th line you will find at the right HTC.......... , now edit this and type after the C :
U , so that it is HTCU....... , for Unlocking the bootloader .
R , so that it is HTCR....... , for ReLocking the bootloader .
. , that it is HTC....... , for reversing the bootloader to original state ***LOCKED OOW***"

HTCxxxxx.......it is HTC_044,behind HTCU_044?

Sorry that my poor english hope you understand what i ask and thanks for reply ^^

First of all, this method ain't gonna work since the locked flag is stored in Radio NVRAM and what is stored in misc partition is for RUUs.

Second, "OOW" in "LOCKED OOW" means "Out Of Warranty"!

 

[kenny_chai_2071]

Oh i.c thanks fardjad , it mean it is still need to using Htc Dev to unlocking bootloader for done all?

If you need warranty, you shouldn't unlock your bootloader at all.

You can also S-OFF your device by flashing unlimited.io HBOOTs. For doing so, you only need to temp-root your device.

There is also a detailed guide in Sensation XL General Section that might help.

 

[kenny_chai_2071]

Thanks fardjab i am get my devices s-off with every thing.

It worked for me on my previous Wildfire S , all I did is take mtd0 as misc.img , edit it , flash it with flash_image , all done , i have my bootloader Unlocked without HTC ! Anyways it misses alot , I will just delete it ...

I didn't mean to offense or anything , just wanted to report that it's not working on SXL and tried to explain why.

I my self really like to try and discuss these things...
And if I were you I'd rather not to delete it. It may be useful for many people in many ways...
