Help with unlocking bootloader!

I've tried almost everything to my knowledge. I'm trying to use the instructions on HTCdev.com and when i get to the last page where I type in "fastboot oem get_identifier_token all that returns is <waiting for device>. USB debugging is enabled, I'm in charge only mode, I've uninstalled HTC sync after installing the drivers. I have the SDK tools installed and in the correct location. What the hell else could it be? I'm at my wits end here and looking for any help I can get.

lol. wrong section. but anyways. you need to be in bootloader.. power down. take off battery and put it back. then hold power and volum down till you go to bootloader. then enter fastboot. plug your phone in and you should see. fastboot usb. and then start the unlock process again.

I'm PMing you...

I apologize for posting in the wrong section, I didn't realize I had posted it here, but instead of saying "fastboot USB" when plugged into the computer, it says "fastboot AC" does that make any difference?

Did you manage to get this sorted? You should be in the bootloader (which is in the HTCDev.com instructions)...

Your phone thinks its connected to a charger instead of a USB cable. Try changing cables or USB ports.

Are you using the micro usb cable that came with the phone? I had a longer cord that wouldn't work and only showed as ac charging, not usb charging.

Yeah I'm using the stock cable.

I finally got it working. I ended up trying a Kodak USB cable and it's the only one that would work correctly. Problem Solved!

Bricked? Phone doesn't turn on!

Hey I think I just bricked my device..
I had CM7 on my incredible s and just wanted to install the new official ICS, because I wanted to sell it.
So I downloaded the following RUU:
http://d-h.st/7UC
Everything finished, the phone booted and got stock at the HTC logo..
I had to leave for 1hour so i just let it on the htc logo.
When I came back home the screen was black and i couldn't turn it on.
When I plug in power the Led flashed 1 time orange and turned off again.
When I connect it to the pc via usb, I hear the usb plugged in sound on my pc but it doesn't show the device..
adb doesn't show the device when i put "adb devices"
Can anybody help me out?
I really need your help!!
Thank you very much!

What happened if you press power button?Atleast can you access recovery or bootloader mode? What was the battery % when you flash the Rom? Try some another battery it might be a problem of battery too.

Nothing happens when I push the power button.. It had enought battery, during the installation it was plugged into the computer and head power..
I can't get into bootloader / CWM because it doesn't even turn on..

Okay so I took the battery out for some minutes and inserted it back in again, now its stuck at the htc logo again..
What could be the problem that it isn't booting?
Can't I upgrade from CM7 to that RUU?

Yes I used adb before, but I got a Galaxy Nexus a few days ago, so it could be that i deleted the drivers from the incredible s..
The incredible S isn't listed when I type in "adb devices".. and the pc says: unknown device when I'm in bootloader

Is your device S OFF or bootloader unlocked via HTC dev?

Thank you, but I already had that driver installed.. I checked the device manager and I saw that it has Android USB Devices: My HTC listed..
But when I run adb devices nothing is shown..
EDIT: Maybe thats because I didn't had the chance to turn on usb debugging?
EDIT 2: Would it be possible to install CMW from the sd card?

Ok download fastboot files which i have posted in link. Turn on your device. No problem when it stuck on HTC logo. Now run cmd file from my fastboot folder and run "adb reboot bootloader" and tell me is it working or not? I am waiting for your reply. It's already 12:30AM here but i will be very happy if i can help you to turn your device on.

Thank you very much for your time!

Okay so this is whats happening also:
When I plugin usb while in Bootloader it says: Unknown device
When I plug in USB while in fastboot it says: Android Phone: Android ADB Interface in device manager
Can I install something via sd card?

Atleast your phone stuck at HTC logo then it seems that your device is not bricked. If nothing happens then last way is only HTC service station or may be any dev can help you.

Fastboot Drivers

Hey guys I unlocked my boot loader and rooted once then I un-rooted and re-locked the boot-loader and now I am trying to do it again but I am having a problem. When I have my phone connected in debugging mode it shows up fine, I can use the code "adb devices" and it shows up but then when I load into the boot loader and go into fastboot and connect my phone to my computer Windows 8 says that it can not recognize the device this is on USB 2.0 it also says "device failed enumeration". On USB 3.0 I get a message that says "The device cannot start code 10". I have un-installed and then re-installed the sync manager and mulitple drivers to no avail. Please help.

Help
Anyone?

I had this before. It's a glitch I think but after keep trying I finally got it to work and really I don't know how to fix it.
What's your hboot version? Battery full? Try a different computer? Have a linux live cd?

Yea I've tried two different computers I did have luck with one but I got as far as "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin" and get an error that says that it cannot load the "Unlock_code.bin". My hboot version is 1.44. My battery has been full all day due to the fact that its been connected to a computer all day http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

Well lets kinda rule things out. It shouldn't be your computer hardware or fastboot files because you tried this on multiple computers. Now what drivers are you using on each computer? Did you tried other micro usb cords? What shape is your micro usb slot on your device (looking at mine right now its kinda dirty)?
Complete those and it should tell you if its a connection problem or not. Otherwise we can partially assume its the software on your phone.

I have been using drivers that didn't seem to work(some that I got off some thread here) but those didn't work so I uninstalled those and then uninstalled and then re-installed HTC Sync. I have used three different cables and my micro usb slot seems to be in fine condition it doesn't seem to be that dirty.

What happens when you try
fastboot erase cache
Does the command work or fail?

I would assume this would not work as the op states that his device is not recognised in fastboot.

Ok so with one laptop when I have my phone in debugging mode and are in the sense OS the phone is detected using the code "adb devices" but when I go to the bootloader and put the phone in fastboot mode it is unrecognized. On my other laptop it is recognized in fastboot using the code "fastboot devices". I have not used the clear cache yet I will try it later.

Have you updated your firmware? If so, make sure your sdk is the latest version.
Use usb 2.0, usb 3.0 is known to cause problems.
Un-install htc sync but not the drivers.
Before attempting commands, eject htc sync drive from My PC.
Let me know how you get on.

Ok, my firmware is 1.26.502.12 which I believe is the latest for AT&T, I've switched from USB 3.0 to 2.0 still not working in fastboot. I re-installed the SDK yesterday so I don't think there should be an update. I have un-installed HTC sync but not HTC Driver Installer and still after doing all of this the device shows up when it is in the OS but not in fastboot. Also when I reboot my device USB debugging keeps disabling itself.

Any updates to this? I'm running Windows 8, have the HTC drivers / Sync installed.. The phone connects fine while in Windows. But is unrecognized when the phone is in bootloader. This is driving me nuts. I do not have access to another PC. I'm sure someone has this working.
Edit: usb 3.0 ports working after following the plugable.com method for windows 8 usb 3 host controller fix.

Go in the bootloader, wait few seconds, put the usb cable in your phone, then in the pc, wait a few second and look in the top of the screen for 'HBOOT USB'.
Then select fastboot and wait untill 'FASTBOOT USB' on the top of the screen.

i followed your instruction but when i put the usb cable in the pc it fails to install driver,but if i select fastboot and i wait until fastboot usb other driver are installed

If in fastboot menu you can see 'FASTBOOT USB' it means that the drivers are installed, so you can use fastboot.exe without any trouble

if i'm in 'FASTBOOT USB' mode and i select get token ID, there are two screens. On the first appears "device not found", on the secon appears the identifier token, but every time i repeat the procedure the code changes. is this normal?

No, the token id must be everytime the same, because there's just 1 id for every bootloader.
Have you installed htc sync manager?

adb commands only works from custom recovery or from a booted rom with usb debugging enabled
fastboot commands only works from bootloader
don't use toolkits, use fastboot and adb directly from a command window.
apart from the toolkit, if the drivers are correctly installed and your device is detected with "adb devices"/"fastboot devices" there is no reason other commands won't works.
you can also check nkk71's guide, there is guide in the FAQ to install drivers correctly.
You could also try to use adb and fastboot from a linux live cd/usb (ubuntu for example)

Most likely you just need to enable usb debugging in settings.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk

USB debugging is enabled when I try this, all the tutorials ive read pretty much start with telling u that.
I've also used the command window to try troubleshoot why toolkit didn't work and same result.
When I try push a file like twrp I get no device attached.
