[Q] [Help needed] Fastboot doesn't provide token ID to unlock the bootloader - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys, I have a problem with my HTC One M7. I am trying to unlock the bootloader using the HTCDev guide (available at htcdev site).
But suddenly I am not able to complete Step 8 (running command "fastboot oem get_identifier_token").
Command "fastboot devices" shows my phone in a fastboot mode:
\> fastboot devices
mt6589_phone_720pv2 fastboot
But none of fastboot oem commands executes successfully (including "get_identifier_token").
Instead I get only three dots ("...") and nothing changes after that:
\> fastboot oem get_identifier_token
...
Other commands (like fastboot reboot) function, but not "fastboot oem get_identifier_token". I can't unlock my bootloader, could you please help!

Never seen that before but since we have S-off now you can unlock the bootloader without HTCDev
check out the revone thread in the Original Development section.

If you're using Windows 8, I would use the following link that I've seen floating around here"
http://plugable.com/2012/12/01/windows-8-and-intel-usb-3-0-host-controllers
I had issues getting the token for mine until I used that guide to convert my Microsoft USB 3.0 drivers into Intel drivers.

Thanks for this advice, I am now trying to do it with revone.
I have successfully pushed the file to the phone, but when executing adb shell commands I get a error:
"- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory"
How to fix it?

Not sure, but the folks in that thread are super helpful
you're in an ADB shell when you execute the command?

Yes, I am now reading that thread to find the answer.
Here's what i do and what I get:

4584 KB/s (648208 bytes in 0.138s)
>adb shell cd /data/local/tmp
- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) nRet(-1) -

Start the shell. Then do the cd command separately

Is the phone in recovery or booted up? Needs to be booted

It was in recovery mode - my mistake, thank you for pointing.
I have booted it and executed the needed commands, but still another mistake:
>sudo adb shell
[email protected]:/ # cd /data/local/tmp
[email protected]:/data/local/tmp # chmod 755 revone
[email protected]:/data/local/tmp # ./revone -P
revone v0.2.1
revone failed (error code = 1)
1|[email protected]:/data/local/tmp #
Step by step I am coming closer to the result, thanks so much for your help

1 Yes this is normal until you change it.
2 For me, s-off then you can always relock the bootloader without htc knowing you have ever unlocked it for warranty purposes.
3 Both do the same thing so personal preference. I used revone which was very easy but cannot comment on revolutionary as I have not tried it.

If we relocked the bootloader, it will show 'relocked' instead of 'locked' right?

That is only if you do it with the instructions on HTCDEV. With S-OFf you can relock and it will show LOCKED.

There is an ADB command to change it to 'locked' instead of 'relocked'. It's mentioned in revone's thread:

I used revone to S-OFF and it was quite easy.

1. I saw other devices pictures which showed CID in bootloader mode, and also my previous HTC OneX had such information available.
2. I'be read somewhere users having issues with S-Off with HTC one. Previously I had Inc S and I S-Off it using revolutionary.
Thanks.

There is a problem with your drivers somehow, go to device manager in windows and delete the phone from the list. Reboot the pc and try again.

"adb push" command is not shell command!
you need type: adb push revone /data/local/tmp/ before you entered into shell by "adb shell".
1) adb push revone /data/local/tmp/
2) adb shell
3) and so on..

[Q] change "relocked" to "locked" when putting phone back to stock?

[Q] change "relocked" to "locked" when putting phone back to stock?
I followed this thread but mine says "relocked" and it still says S-OFF. is it possible to get it to say "locked" without going through the whole process of unlocking, rooting, and using revone again?
I'm sending my phone back to get the screen replaced which isn't under warranty, so does it even matter that it says "relocked?"

Use revone -l to change back to "locked"
There is not a way without rerooting for Tue device to day say locked and not relocked BUT you can easily get rid of S-Off. It doesn't take long either...
1.) Reroot.
2.) Download revone to computer.
3.) Navigate Using Command Prompt to where revone file is located on computer and move the Downloaded file to /data/local/tmp using the command "adb push revone /data/local/tmp" without quotations while phone is booted into OS and connected to computer.
3.) Use Command Prompt with phone connected to computer to run these commands or you can use Terminal Emulator app without a computer but will need a computer later on to run RUU again...
3A.) adb shell
3B.) su(SU Will Now Request SU Access For ADB Shell, Grant It)
3C.) cd /data/local/tmp
3D.) chmod 755 revone
4.) Reboot device
5.) Once device is fully booted back up run these commands again while connected to computer
5A.) adb shell
5B.) su(Will Not Need To Request Access Again)
5C.) cd /data/local/tmp
5D.) ./revone -P(If It Tells You "No Need To Reboot" Then Move On To Step 7 And If It Tells You To "Reboot To Continue" Move On To Step 6).
6.) Reboot
7.) Once fully booted back into OS open another command prompt and run these commands with Command Prompt while connected to computer.
7A.) adb shell
7B.) su
7C.) cd /data/local/tmp
7D.) ./revone -s 0 -u(To Be Safe).
7E.) Reboot
8.) Once again open another command prompt window and run these commands
8A.) adb shell
8B.) su
8C.) cd /data/local/tmp
8D.) ./revone -t -l
9.) Reboot
10.) Run RUU And Allow It To Successfully Complete.
11.) Once booted back into OS open command prompt and type in the final two commands
11A.) adb reboot bootloader
12.) Once it boots into bootloader and recognizes device type in this command

[GUIDE] Obtaining S-OFF on Sprint HTC One HBOOT 1.57

I had some trouble getting S-OFF using HBOOT 1.57, and I finally got it. Here is what I did in hopes someone may find it useful:
Before you Begin:
If you get stuck at the white HTC Logo when booting or you get "Process com.htc.dialer isn't responding" at any point in this guide, or even before it, you are likely missing your Radio. (I don't know exactly how this happens, but it apparently does sometimes.) I had this problem once, and flashing the latest radio from here in recovery fixed it.
Steps:
Flash this ROM. (Other ROMs may work, but this one gave me no trouble at all)
Flash this Kernel. <-- Important! Firewater will fail if you don't do this!
Follow the Firewater Instructions to obtain S-OFF. It should work the very first time. (Use the "normal, rooted device method" set of instructions.)
You should now be S-OFF! After this, you can proceed to flash your favorite ROMs Kernels, and HBOOTs. If you would like to downgrade to HBOOT 1.44 (I did), you can find the files here.
Please post if this works for you or if you need help. Thanks to all the developers who made this possible!

Hi, what specific ROM and Kernel version did you use to get Firewater to work? I have flashed rom Bad_Boyz_Sprint_ONE_Sense_6_v1.0 and Kernel ElementalX-sprint-m7-13.1 but USB debugging is not working and Firewater is not working properly, I am guessing its a kernel issue. I leave everything on default while installing Kernel thru TWRP. Can you confirm? I appreciate the help

Yes, I did fastboot devices and I got the device listed there. Although I could see that in the phone it does not appear the 4 bars of USB debugging. I had it checked in the Dev Options. When I do the same with the stock 4.4.2 I do get those 4 bars and the indication that the USB debugging is active.

Hi. I meant adb devices. And I was wondering how do I check the file permissions. Can I try to copy firewater with a root file manager ? Thank you

After this, there is no action from firewater. I should get a warning prompt, but I don't.

Are you doing adb reboot before doing adb wait-for-device? Also make sure that your device has no lock mechanism enabled (pattern lock etc).

Thank you for bearing with me.
I did as indicated on that post, but still having issues with firewater. This is what I get:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb devices
List of devices attached
FA34MS906354 device
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb reboot
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb wait-for-device push firewat
er /data/local/tmp

Try flashing an older release of CyanogenMod - I'd try Snapshot M8.

Hi, I tried but I had the same results, the commands are accepted but there is no action after the last one . I'm gonna do a last attempt on my other computer and see if it works.

Tell me what this fastboot command would do

fastboot oem append-cmdline "androidboot.unlocked_kernel=true"
It is referenced in the fire rooting guide, seems harmless?

I just opened the root.bat from the other method in the 5.0.1 page and pasted the cmds manually in a cmd prompt
seems to have worked as I can use a terminal emulator and enter 'su' and get Superuser prompt
I believe it is/was more or less this
You will need the root_fire.zip from the other thread, and then open a command window in the folder where you extract those files.

It is referenced in the fire rooting guide, seems harmless to try on xt1096?
