[Q] Fail to Unlock bootloader from HTCDev site.

I'm getting the following error when trying to unlock the bootloader:
Unlocking Bootloader Failed!
Sorry it didn't work out. Here's why:

We're sorry, but it appears your attempt to unlock the bootloader on this device has failed. This could be caused by several factors including simple errors in the entry of the unlock token, problems with your device, or a lack of manufacturer support for the unlocking process. Please see the specific error code listed below, and try again if necessary.
Error Code: 173.
Error Reason: Check Rule Fail with exception.
Anyone else getting this? Maybe it's just HTCDev site, I did see someone else in the HTC Rezound forum having the same issue today.

s-off error waiting for device

Hi!
i follow the guide to s-off the device in the htc site, driver and all is installed but fastboot stuck on waiting for device... anyone have this problem?

I thought the SXL didnt have S-off yet? possibly you tried S-off for the wrong phone..

no no I checked my version is unlockable! Type the command to extract the codes I still waiting on device ... What can be? 2 days that I feel!

What do you mean that your version is unlockable? I know some SXL phones come shipped with S-off, but when they come locked there is no way to unlock yet..
You sure you dont have the sensation XE?

He probably means his bootloader can be unlocked

Sorry i'm confused whit the root...(version can be rooted) but i think my bootlaoader is unlockable!! the problem is fastboot.exe that don't recognizes the phone!!

all fastboot command don't work (waiting for device error)

Make sure that you are booted into that bootloader thing, to get there: take out battery, restart phone + volume down, then when device is started into the bootloader and connected to USB you should be able to make the blue text go to fastboot with volume up/down. Then try unlocking again, it should work..

ok token extracted but when i press submit after i paste the token, received this error: Unlocking Bootloader Failed!

Error Code: Invalid Bootloader Token Length.
Error Reason: The submitted Token appears to be the wrong length and won\'t work.

ok reset the phone and S-OFF!!

this two step are required???
1. You cant just flash a custom rom on this phone, firstly you will need the 'Chinese rom' which is here http://www.filefactory.com/file/c2ec...511_101713.zip and make sure it is on the SDcard part of your phones memory. Make sure it on the root of the SDcard because it will be easier to find later. Then you will need this rom RCMix3d Runny XL rom from here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/56143145/RCM...ny_XL_v1.2.zip (thanks to benjamin.j.goodwin) and make sure that is on the SDcard too with the other rom
2. Then you will need to download this file from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...7&postcount=18 it is the 'Chinese boot.img' and will need flashing from fastboot again. So put the phone in fastboot and extract the 'boot.img' from the 'boot.rar' file and put it in the fastboot folder on the PC. Open the command prompt again and type this... fastboot flash boot boot.img ... This should only need doing once if you're coming from a stock rom.
what is it for???

I dont know why, but it has to be done. It only has to be done once, after that you can happily flash whatever you want

Be sure to extract only the token itself when its in the window it will look something like this
1 3wt23f26t23fv3
2 352632ev316531
3 53215423626262
Make sure you copy and paste only the fat underscored part, do NOT copy the line numbers you get in front of it

It appears that you didn't copy the token correctly.

Motorola Unlocking Bootloader Tool Will Work for Atrix HD?

Researching length of code: http://pastebin.com/zHh76h60
After researching, I can conclude the code is going to be between 1-20 digits (assuming I am reading syntax correct)
Looks like we need the code for it for work, normally fastboot tells you the code for use and explains how to do it...but this is much better than success story than Razr, I believe the unlocking bootloader tool from Motorola WILL support this device! [UPDATE: NOPE! Motorola at this time is not supporting this device, but this method is the proper way anyway. ]
Code:
C:\Users\matt>fastboot devices
(My device ID) fastboot
C:\Users\matt>fastboot oem unlock
...
(bootloader) fastboot oem unlock [ unlock code ]
OKAY [ 0.104s]
finished. total time: 0.107s
C:\Users\matt>fastboot oem unlock
...
(bootloader) fastboot oem unlock [ unlock code ]
OKAY [ 0.104s]
finished. total time: 0.107s
This is not a special Atrix HD, it still says "Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0" on the AP Fastoot Flash Mode (S) screen.
Code:
C:\Users\matt>fastboot oem get_identifier_token
...
(bootloader) Restricted oem command
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.100s
EDIT: (August 14th 2012)
Code:
C:\Users\matt>fastboot oem get_unlock_data
...
(bootloader) --redacted--
(bootloader) --redacted--
(bootloader) --redacted--
(bootloader) --redacted--
(bootloader) --redacted--
OKAY [ 0.351s]
finished. total time: 0.353s
Put this into your own device and find out your unlock data
Below is an excerpt from a strings.exe of the abootBackup partition:
Code:
Device already unlocked!
%s: START
%s: value = %s
fastboot oem unlock [ unlock code ]
OEM unlock failure!
Could not get unlock data!
Above you can see... we HAVE the unlock data now. We just have to figure out how to use it.
Status codes shown in AP Fastboot:
Code:
Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0
Device is UNLOCKED. Status Code: 1
Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 2
Device is UNLOCKED. Status Code: 3

From what it seems like... the device itself must create the same token that I believe a webkit will give us. [UPDATE: Proven right lol ]

I dont have the HD, so I'm just going on what I'm reading on my forum, the og Atrix, but alot of people there are having problems unlocking with replaced atrixes. Seems moto blocked the bootloader on them, so maybe its the same for the HD. I've been following the attempts at rooting the HD and the "promise" of moto releasing unlockable bootloaders, so hopefully progress is made soon. Good luck!

As far back as I remember, any device from Motorola that shipped locked before disabled the command "fastboot oem unlock." This is the first time I have personally seen it possible on a release-keys "Retail" device like this.
With the Photon Q coming soon as well.. I would like to personally see this as a sign of us getting the unlock as well. Hopefully

Im hoping too! I wont ever leave my og atrix, but still hoping with google acquiring moto mobility, that something sweet is coming! Im dedicated to moto.

Updated OP with some important new information.

Would be awesome to get something similar to revolutionary before the official "void your warranty" tool...

You could try to unlock using the revone tool also used to get s-off. Haven't done it myself as by the time the tool became available I had already unlocked via HTCDev, but I read from several people around here who successfully unlocked their bootloader that way. Try searching in the Android Revolution HD thread
