Code:
[B]Please Make Sure You Are As Follows;
- Bootloader Unlocked
- CUSTOM Sense Rom Installed (Deodexed Rom)
- [URL="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox&hl=en_GB"]Busybox Free Installed From Play Store[/URL][/B]
Required Files In Attached Area.
Guide;
1. Download the files below at the bottom of the post. Also ensure that you have completed a "Smart Install" in Busybox.
2. Once done… Open up the files and extract them into a folder… Hold Shift & Right Click to open a CMD Prompt from the folder location.
3a. You have 2 options here.… Look at the simunlock.txt file and follow those steps otherwise do as follows. Make sure you have the HTC drivers installed and type as below;
Code:
- ADB Shell
And you should get something similar to the below;
Code:
sh-3.2#
Type SU and look for the SU prompt on your device. Remember to have Busybox installed. After this youll get the same as above again.
Type “strings -n 8 /dev/block/mmcblk0p7” and then you should get various bits of info such as your IMEI, CID etc. as shown below;
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Your looking for the code around by the IMEI which is 8 digits long. This code isn’t like 00001111, it is a selection of numbers.
4. Then take note of this code and turn off your device.
5. Insert a SIM card into the device and type in the unlock code. It should either reboot or startup from that point and you should register on your respective network. Please remember that for Warranty repairs, this may void your Warranty, depending on your device region and Service Provider
---------------------------------------------------
Alternate Method Continued;
3b. Type the following code step by step;
Code:
- adb push simfinder.txt /sdcard/simfinder.sh
- adb shell
- su
- sh /sdcard/simfinder.sh
You will then see as per below;
You’ll see under this;
“Searching mmcblk0p7...
/dev/block/mmcblk0p7: 00000170
/dev/block/mmcblk0p7: 11111111”
And a third line with your unlock code
Follow as per above to insert the code.

First!
Just successfully unlocked my Desire C using Method 1
So easy and quick
Thanks!
Edit:
Just a note to any CM9 users, you can only use the unlock code with a sense rom so:
1. Backup current rom with cwm
2. Download a stock/sense based rom
3. Flash stock kernel, full wipe and flash the stock rom
4. Go through the setup process, reboot with another sim, type in the code you got from this and you will receive a confirmation
5. Flash custom kernel, full wipe and restore.
6. Profit
Sorry for the noob question, but should it works on another HTC device like Wildfire s ?

Howdi Einstein... dont we need S-OFF to do this? I thought we might....
Search for S-OFF ! You can see by hex searching in your dumps:
s-on hex part:
98 FE 32 54 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00
s-off is achieved if you find a way to change 01 to 00:
98 FE 32 54 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
Super cid is 32 bytes before 98 FE 32 54 something like in hex: 48 54 43 5F 5F 30 30 31 30 30 30 30 30 30 37 34 (string: HTC__00100000074), for example you need to set super cid (string: 1111111100000074).
Hope it helps, hope you find a way to unlock emmc and write 00 to gain s-off

I could try but i dont have a Desire C anymore, Unless someone could post a dump for me to go through? ID look then ?
Hmm I've got my thinking cap on today... I'll come back with an idea after work for you... See if I could do it.
Is this permanent unlock? Even if I go back to stock, unroot?
Thanks by the way, great job!!!

Hi guys,
I'm feeling stupid asking this but i have a new G1 now, the old one went to pieces, after i've dropped it from the 10th floor.
It is saying that is CRC37
Firmware version = 1.5
Baseband version = 62.505.20.17U_2.22.19.26I
kernel version = 2.6.27-00393-g6607056 [email protected] #1
DREA110 - PVT32B - CPLD-4
What i have tried:
1. Downloaded to the formated |FAT32| SD:
flashrec-20090815.apk
recovery-RA-magic-v1.2.3H.img
update.zip (EU)
2. Used ASTRO to install the APK file.
-> Run the program.
3. BackUp current recovery.
4. Type "/sdcard/recovery-RA-magic-v1.2.3H.img" into the text box.
-> Click "Flash Custom Recovery Image"
When Booting pressed HOME+POWER - Stuck at G1 screen for 30 minutes.
Removed battery .... restarted phone
Same CRC37 - nothing happened
followed these steps:
Now open up terminal and type
cd /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/
ls
You will find a directory mmc1:XXXX which are random numbers of some sort
cd /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:XXXX
cat cid > /sdcard/cid.txt
The last line i do becuse USB is easy. Other people have found that just type; cat cid and then press the menu button and just email the terminal data to yourself :O.
Now that should have created a text file that you can now read of your SD card via the usb link.
Reverse the hex code like this and then zero the frist byte? (myne is below, it should be different for you.)
This is the string i got off the cid.txt file
03 53 44 53 55 30 31 47 80 30 ac a5 2b 00 91 ee
second row is all the bytes in reverse order. See the ee at the end is now the ee at the start and the 91 second from the end is now the second at the start.
ee 91 00 2b a5 ac 30 80 47 31 30 55 53 44 53 03
Finally zero the first byte which myne was ee now is 00
00 91 00 2b a5 ac 30 80 47 31 30 55 53 44 53 03
Go here to generate your goldcard
http://revskills.de/pages/goldcard.html
Just enter your cid and emailaddress, press the button "Continue" and
WAIT, only press Continue one time. It will then generate the goldcard and send it via Email.
Go grab HxD from http://mh-nexus.de/en/programs.php
Follow the details in this post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3584419&postcount=246
Which are
- format sd card to fat32
- download HxD Hex Editor and install
- open program and go to "extra" and then "open disk"
- choose physical disk and then the removable disk. that is the same as your memory card. I've you don`t know with one it is. just remove the card and restart the program and you will see witch one is disappeared.
- uncheck open as readonly !!!!!!!
- go to "extra" again and the open disk image.
- open the goldcard.img witch you have created from Viper BJK website.
- press ok (512 is fine) en then "select all" and "copy"
- go to the removable disk tab and select offset 00000000 till offset 00000170 go to "edit" and then past write.
- save it
- now copy dreaming.nbh to the root off your memorycard.
- turn of your phone and restart by holding the camera and the power button.

Still same result - Not Allow ...
Tried with a few cards - 2 x 1GB Adata, 1x512MB Nokia, 2x2GB Sandisk, and 1x1GB Lexar.
What can i do ... what i'm doing wrong - ?
(ofcourse i press the right buttons). )
Help please ...
Erm, I have no idea what your talking about, lol, but if your just trying to root your G1, just start over and follow this;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=563679
Idk if your trying to do something special? If not, that guide should work perfectly for you.
The thing is that i receive a "Not Allow" at line 3 step 1 from the above guide.
Powering up G1 - holding camera button - Loading - Not Allow
Then Tricolor screen - Serial0
-------------------------------------------------------------
I think that the SPL is the problem. But i can't flash it - at least i don't know how ... or if that is possible ... Or maybe the BootLoader or FPL if something like this exists
-------------------------------------------------------------
Anyway ... thank you but i don't know what can i do ... for now i will use the soft i have without root ... maybe in time there will be an answer ...
-------------------------------------------------------------
Respect,

Hi, if this subject was here before ...... sorry , but i had a problem to find something like this here in this forum.
Is there any way to change MAC address of my wifi card ?
It can be temporary, maybe some registry changes ,or a program ?
Thanks in advance.

Run the Offical 2.1 RUU again, and it will remove the 2nd upate. Then you can root per the Guide to Root Spring 2.1 Relase by Regaw.

i've only rooted 1.5 the old manual way.
If you ran the most recent RUU from the sprint site, it is already patched against root. You have to run the older version.
Go to: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=694572
Scroll down to Regaw's second post and click on the link that says, "My Personal One I used for testing"
Run THAT Ruu.......THEN proceed to root via his instructions at the beginning of the post.
Good Luck.
P.S. Your software number must be 2.27.651.5
If it has a .6 at the end, you can't root
I'm in the same boat, you can't Finn the .5 ruu over .6 can you?

Try it if it does not work in the phone os shutdown the phone and power it on with home and down pressed and select fastboot and run the ruu again. if it dosen't work i think your sol but i think it works otherwise we would have an uprise of i bought my phone at best buy, radioshack, or sprint and they updated it before they gave it to me.
There is a fix for people running Windows 8.1 who want to fastboot flash their phones.
It is fairly technical, so DO NOT attempt if you don't know what you are doing.
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR COMPUTER.
Click Start, click Run, type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK.
Locate and then click the following subkey in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\UsbFlags
On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click Key.
Type 0BB40FF00100
for the name of the new key. (those are zeroes)
On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click “Binary Value”.
Type SkipBOSDescriptorQuery
for the name of the Binary Value, and then press ENTER.
Right-click SkipBOSDescriptorQuery, and then click Modify.
In the Value data box, type 01 00 00 00 , and then click OK.
Exit Registry Editor.
Unplug and re-plug your phone (if it was plugged in.)
I hope this helps!

I had to do a little work to get this fix to work, because when the phone is plugged in and in fastboot mode, it doesn't list a VID/PID/REV in device manager. The VID is 0BB4 (for HTC) / the PID is 0FF0 (which I am assuming is the Vivid, but only in fastboot mode. The phone in normal mode gets a PID of 0CBB) / the REV number is 0100 (for my phone. If this fix doesn't work, then this is most likely the reason: you have a different REV number.)
Yo any tips for getting my Windows 10 x64 to recognize my HTC Vivid in Hboot/Fastboot?
I can mount fine from recovery, but I think there is something wrong with the recovery, and I can't reinstall it from recovery.
Hello,
So I'm trying to use the TPDebrick tool by jcsullins to get my old touchpad to work again. Now the thing still boots just it'll only go to the battery with a question mark symbol. Now whenever I put it into the mode where I hold Power+Home Button+Vol Down and use the tool the terminal will put out this.
sudo ./tpdebrick 16

First of all the HP TOUCHPAD can not be bricked, it is my opinion that was a falsely driven narrative of the past, that has been mostly debunked by modern techniques. Now those people in the past who thought the HP TOUCHPAD can be bricked, may have been honest in their opinion but it was probably out of ignorance.
I will point you to a modern technique to "de-brick" your tablet, but I am afraid the symbol you are getting is
a "battery with a question mark" so it sounds like your battery is not being detected or its damaged. But I will want you to flash the "A6 firmware" and that will probably fix your issue. So you have some reading to do pal. Start with this link: Good luck and Good Day. I have "cc'ed" some of the best mind on this thread ( well the only minds LOL )
to read your problem and offer help, or engage in debate. LOL

Discharged Battery
If the Tablet displays any simbol on the screen, then is not brick and is working as it should.
The original HP Charger must be use and it could take a week to get some minimal charge.
So I know this post is super old, but wanted to update and say I got it working finally and its good to go, I appreciate all the help
HP TOUCHPAD DEBRICK Linux Live CD
I have created an Ubuntu Live CD with all the necessary files to Debrick the Tablet from TP Debrick v005 by jcsullins.
If there is any Tablet that did not finished the flash process, run this Live CD and perform the Debrick again.
If you do not know the Tablet model do the following:
Flash using the 16 GB, then connect to charger. If the home LED does not come on after some time then.
Flash using the 32 GB, then connect to charger. If no LED light then
Flash using the 64 GB.
All process must finish in " ALL DONE "
