ive tried over 3 tutorials and i know i sound stupid but i cant figure out how to get to the padlock screen. the farthest i get is to the bootloader screen (the power/volume pressing) the in EVERY tutorial i read they say type in something like fastboot devices but instead of my serial number coming up a list of options come up...that is the farthest ive gotten...can someone help?
i have a stock nexus one that i just got a few days ago
Hey bro, mostlikely you need to install adb or reinstall USB.
Check this site out.

Follow instructions carefully. Good luck and hope this helps you.
P. S. For future reference, this is not the right forum to post your questions, a lot of people get their panty in a bunch when you do it. LOL.

The padlock screen is after you unlock your bootloader. Once your in boot loader you go in your dos command window and type fastboot oem unlock and that will start the unlock process

hi guys.
ive tried to root my HTC ONE but failed.
i followed all steps and everything seemed perfect.
installed BMP driver, HTC driver, HTC Sync, got adb.exe AdbWinApi.dll AdbWinUsbApi.dll fastboot.exe from qbking77
i am already HTC Dev user so just logged in and got token successfully.
finally i saw 'unlock bootlaoder?' screen on the last step, selected 'yes' and rebooted.
but my device is still locked.
ive tried all process once again but 'unlock bootloader?' screen on the last step doesnt appear on my device anymore....
i got token again and again but all of them didnt work.(even first one doesnt work anymore: unlock bootloader screen doesnt appear)
ive tried re-lock my device with this command: fastboot oem lock
my device re-locked successfully(RE-LOCKED appeared on the top of screen at bootloader menu)
and then, i tried to unlock again, 'unlock bootloader?' screen successfully appeared on the last step.
i selected 'yes' and rebooted
BUT IT IS STILL LOCKED.
i followed this step a couple of times but nothing worked.
i dunno what the problem is...
i didnt have any errors on entire step to unlock.
anybody can help me to unlock my device???

Here you go buddy - follow Mike's guide here - works fine , all I had to do was choose a different custom back up than the one posted in the guide and not change the name to recovery.img , but leave the one you select as named - like recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.1-m7 , so your final command line would would read fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.1-m7 , see the guide and you'll understand what im on about
you can search XDA for the custom recovery you want and also have a look here

So I have a fully stock HTC One and have spent all night trying to unlock the bootloader. Nothing seems to work I have never rooted this phone, everything I have read makes it seem as if it's impossible. I've tried the adb/fastboot, htcdev, and changing CID methods. Plus I have read of various other ways that already require a root. Which I cannot do seeing how I am still locked and S-ON.
To be honest I'm at the edge and I think I'm just going to give up. I'm on 4.2.2 - hboot 1.54. I was a previous owner of the Thunderbolt which was not a bad phone, I rooted that and everything no questions asked. Although I do remember HTC taking the longest for OTA updates, not a huge fan of HTC.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to unlock the bootloader I will be fine from there. I'm positive I have all the right equipment and prerequisites just not sure if I really am at the end of the road.
Anything useful goes a long way right now.
Thanks.....

Is urs the AT&T One? Then the bootloader unlock process is different. If urs is the standard international SIM unlocked, then ideally you should see a splash after you run the bootloader unlock command, which prompts you to unlock the bootloader. Please state what exactly ur issue is when u try to bootloader unlock
I'm with Verizon but it just gives me a 1 line error message doesn't run through anything else or load up anything. I type in "bootloader oem unlock" or whatever after clearly identifying my device is connected with "adb device" and nothing happens. It takes about 0.14 sec and says something along the lines of "[ERRORR] ......" after running again it takes 0.00 sec and says same thing, I can screenshot if you think it would be more helpful.
Please help, I appreciate both responses. Just really want this to work.

Hahahaha Verizon is REALLY REALLY BAD when it comes to dev. support. Ideally, you shouldn't be posting this in this forum. Post it on the Verizon forum. But, I can help you.

Download the package. Extract the zip and run the 'soju.exe' program. Please read ALL the pre-requisites mentioned in the instructions tab.
P.S. From next time if you're asking for help, please state that you're on Verizon

Worked like a charm, but now I am having trouble with the recovery portion of all this.
I have downloaded and installed the TWRP Manager app and then went to install the recovery and it said my device is not supported, this same problem happened with CWMR.

For starters, you need the fastboot executable for Windows to unlock the device, not ADB. The minimal ADB version, also applies to fastboot, is 1.0.31. Secondly, you must enable fastboot mode on the device beforehand. Thirdly, unless LG has changed things in the last month or so, the bootloader on the LG-D415 is unlocked.
To enable fastboot mode, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-l90/general/guide-fastboot-l90-d415-t2827825
To unlock the bootloader, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-l90/general/guide-unlock-bootloader-t-mobile-l90-t2836457. Shouldn't be necessary tho . Won't hurt anything to go thru the process however.
Thank you, i have fastboot and adb (fixed a bricked kindle last week!!) I wasnt sure about the bootloader and iwasnt gunna be without a recovery like i was with my lg lucud!!!
And excuse my unintelligible post above. New size screen?
So gentleman its about time i asked for help. I am not a dev but very android savvy, have rooted, recovered, de-bricked 100+ devices and only two hard bricks so far.
So here goes. i got a m8 hk edition brand new, proceeded with custom recovery, unlocked boot-loader, firewater s-off blah blah and next i try to sim unlock. while in programming screen i looked away and my baby boy hit a the screen and chose an unknown option, my phone rebooted, upon boot I was greeted by a phone lock screen please enter password. I never set one. I cannot call but only 911 sometimes can *2 but only for a second. cannot reset after 10 attempts, lock is persistent after flash of new rom and now i really messed up s back on and relocked bootloader. i can unlock bootloader again but since flashed new rom and reset device adb isnt on. have tried everything google got and searched for almost a year to no avail for a solution. PLEASE HELP. I AM NO NOOB. also have tryed the encryption bug fix too and nothing.....REWARD......
Have you tried a RUU? Hit the second link in my sig and read the RUU section. Then go to the thread in the link below and grab the RUU for software version 3.31.654.2 and run it from your computer.

ruu
I have tried several ruus not sure of versions with fail if i remember right error was something about security or permissions.. also cid was changed at some point, havent worked on phone in a month downloading your link now. I appreciate any and all input on this and would like to hear of any others with this problem. as soon as i get device booted with recovery i will post more information about device specs

If you changed your CID then you're S-off and there is no need to relock your bootloader. You may need to change your CID back to stock (SPCS_004 in your case) if you continue to get errors while trying to run the RUU, however, I don't believe that will be necessary.
If you're wanting to go back totally stock & S-on, locked bootloader and all, check out the guide in the link below.

Ruu's flash successfully but device still boots locked. I was s off but returned device back to s on at some point. I can still re-lock and unlock bootloader, but i cannot return to s off because the Device has yet to enable ADB . Since every flash clears all settings after boot the developer settings are not even enabled because im locked out at first boot EVERY time I factory reset or flash a new Rom or ruu.
Please tell me something I havent tried yet. Something im missing? Im thinking about offering a reward to anyone who can help me solve this problem.
In the picture is something I haven't been able to find on than any other Harman Kardon m8. What password? Could it have possibly been a password set with my root anti-theft app AVAST?
If you select emergency call from the screen in the picture, does it bring up the dialer or just call 911?
If the dialer comes up, can you enter any ## or *# whatever type commands? Maybe reset it from there. ##72786# or ##786#

Have you contacted Sprint?
So i have had my nexus 6 for a little more than a month now and i've messed up up. wish i had this site before. followed a guide on rooting and unlocking the bootloader without really knowing what i was doing. What i didnt know is that i had a defective nexus 6, with the screen the 1?2 of screen freezing glitch. i finally was planning on taking my phone into att warranty center, so i tried to relock the bootloader and was stuck into this boot loop.
I've been trying to follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/guide-flash-factory-images-nexus-6shamu-t2954008
but this is getting me nowhere and i desperatly need to reactivate my phone, i can not enter recover mode or anything like that. when i go to the flash-base option i get fastboot not a command
can anyone please help i am so screwed
Means you haven't installed fastboot correctly. Go to question 28 of that thread.
