Hello everybody , this is a guide , not specifically tried by me , but I assume it should work ! This will guide you to unlock your bootloader without htcDev which means won't erase any of your data or anything , but the phone will boot-up while unlocked , also you can use the same guide to re-lock your bootloader or even return it to the very original state ***LOCKED OOW*** for warranty !
Ok , the stuff you need :
1- A rooted phone , see Permanent Root V4 !
2- A Hex Editor ( use HxD.exe )
3- Adb and fastboot Installed
4- An Unlockable bootloader ( I assume the stock one is at Locked state , which is unlockable )
I am NOT responsible for bricked phones of any kind ! Just to note if this method bricks your device try the other process ...
So we are all ready to go ! let's GO !
1- Open Cmd on your PC and cd to the adb and fastboot directory
2- Enable USB Debugging on your phone (-_-)
3- Type in the Cmd.exe :
4- a- If that works , it should list between the partitions the "misc" partition , now you see that word next to misc that something **MORELIKE** "mmcblock123" , write it down somewhere ( please reply down telling me what it is actually I could add it )
4- b- If that doesn't work (4-a) then try typing :
If that works then you sould see the misc partition (see 4-a)
4- c-If that doesn't work so please I need somebody to tell me what is the misc partition so I can add it
)
5- Now , reboot your phone ...
6- When it boots , type in :
of course these """"" are not written they are just to highlight that this one is the one you have written down or copied (misc partition)
7- If that is successful , then you're alright , if that didn't pass , then you won't continue
8- Now open the HxD.exe and go to File > Open > the misc.img you pulled !
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***
10- Now we have to flash this , so we got to the bootloader directly via typing:
11- Now we type in :
Now , if that is successful , you should be on your wanted state , mostly , Unlocked
! If that wasn't successful , so we sha'll try one more thing !
12- Type in thos commands seperately
Well I guess there is another way that I will be adding , a more short way ! But for now I need confirmations , errors , successful attempts , whatever !
Note : If the phone just bricked and doesn't go into system , you will flash the backup of your misc.img (HxD.exe leaves a backup of almost everything with the form of *.*.bak ) so flash it as above but you will write instead of misc.img , misc.img.bak !!
