OH GOD, this finally worked. Instructions were pretty much unclear and incomplete in the htc dev page with the part of the Android SDK files, very nicely explained in this video. Done on my HTC One M7 with Windows 10.
i doubled clicked on the SDK manager, a quick black DOS window opened and closed, nothing else happened. i couldnt get far to the Android SDK manager windows. any suggestions?
Great job, I do not know why people put you dislikes. Just you did not say in the video that you have to also check OEM unlocking in the developer option. Continue like this. fuck the haters
This did not work for my VZW HTC One M9. I got the following error: Error Code: 172. Error Reason: CID Not Allowed (MID not exist in Model Rule). Any suggestions
After using the token command, all i get is this. No code or anything i can paste into the box. (bootloader) [KillSwitch] : /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/frp (bootloader) [KillSwitch] Last Byte is 0X00, disable unlock (bootloader) [KillSwitch] oem unlock Turn Off! OKAY [ 0.061s] finished. total time: 0.063s
AMAZING TUTORIAL. It worked perfectly. The only minor issue I had was trying to find the files that were needed. Google is our friend. ;) Thanks again. GOOD JOB!
I have got you SDK tool and followed the same process for my HTC ONE E9+ Dual sim. Everything was going on fine as u. But at at get identifier token option I got waiting for devices nothing else. First I selected my model as it was present in HTC Dev website then again I tried with for all compatible device. But I can't get identifier token for both cases. Whereas under adb devices it's showing my device and upto booting process it's fine. Pls help. Why u don't respond my friend?😢😢😢

It didnt work for my HTC ONE M9 Sprint, it gets stuck on the step #9. It says fail to locate unlock code and doesnt show me the message to accept the HTC terms to finish the unlock process. Please I need some help here!
I've done the same thing and submitted token as you said.But the HTC site says it's failed. Says error length size idk. I did exactly the same you did. Is there any solution.
if you see this (bootloader) [KillSwitch] : /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/frp (bootloader) [KillSwitch] Last Byte is 0X00, disable unlock You need to go into developer options and check to allow OEM Unlocking.
+Omer Ichay Yes, that is what I would like to do, but my phone does not have the option in developers settings. How do i go about allowing OEM without the option on my phone's developer settings?
when i type in fastboot oem get_identifier_token and hit enter it says waiting for device but nothing happens on the phone. htc m9plus original taiwan version.
Good evening, i just received a htc m9 that I’m trying to update to the last android operating software . I have to unlock boot loader and then put on rom. I have never done this. Is the info in this video still able to work for me?
When you are in the command prompt and want to copy the block of text that is your identifier token, you go to Edit - Mark. But, you need to hold ALT down when selecting the block of text that is your identifier token.
In Android studio website now there is no other download option for downloading SDK tools under full Android Studio package. Pls help regarding this. I have to unlock my HTC ONE E9+ dual sim version.

I tried to get back to factory settings via the recovery menu but get my error on the cellphone. .Bootloader is locked and can not activate usb debugging to unlock it so it could help me --- Thanks and apologize for bad english ..

When I go to the part where it says, "fastboot oem get_identifier_token" and i click enter, all i see is "< waiting for any device >" I don't see the big thing of coding
+RaNdOmViDz6996 that might mean you don't have the drivers if your using windows. the best way to get all the drivers you need is to download HTC Manager. if that dose not work then you might want to make sure you have done every step in this video. "USB Debugging Enabled" and making sure you check the box that said allow the computer always.-new to me is- no pin or pattern on your lock screen. (open lock screen) in my experience the problem your having is usually due to a driver issue. wrong one or no driver.
i followed every step but when i writhe the command i get the below message: (bootloader) [KillSwitch] : /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/frp (bootloader) [KillSwitch] Last Byte is 0X00, disable unlock (bootloader) [KillSwitch] oem unlock Turn Off!
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: 172. Error Reason: CID Not Allowed (MID not exist in Model Rule).
Hi can someone please tell me if this would help help as my phone has been blocked by EE. They were acting like ass so I didn't clear of my remaining balance and now my phone is blocked :-/
