How to Unlock the Bootloader of Any HTC Android Device

A Locked Bootloader is one that will only
boot an OS that it "approves" of. This may
mean that device's boot partition has an
approved digital signature, or the carrier ID
(CID) hard-coded into the OS matches a
value hard-coded into the bootloader itself.
It is not possible to gain root access on any
of the HTC’s Android device without
unlocking the bootloader first. Unlocking the
bootloader of your Android Device will grants
you access to modify your operating system
and also enables you to install the desire
custom rom on your Android Device. Actually,
unlocking the bootloader of your android
device is of great advantage, but always take
note that once you've unlocked the
bootloader of your device, the warranty of
that device is being voided.

Also note that unlocking the bootloader will
format the internal memory of your HTC
device, so it is highly recommended that you
make a backup of your personal data —
including photos, videos and contacts —
before we begin.

Items Needed

*The HTC Device (with Locked Bootloader)
*A USB Cable ( for connecting
*Android device to PC )
*A Computer

Steps to Unlocking HTC Bootloaders:
1. First verify that your device is supported
for bootloader unlock, from this page.
2. If your device is supported, then download
the HTC Bootloader from Cnet or here . For
Non-supported HTC devices, then check in
here for the native method.
3. After downloading the Bootloader unlock,
then open it and connect your device to a
computer.
4. Then simply choose the Android version,
enable usb debugging as seen in the
software.

Note: The drivers of your device would be
installed automatically.
5. Then, simply click Unlock . (this process
might take few minutes, so stay tuned and
don't disconnect your device from the
computer during the process)
6. Immediately the above process is
completed, you would receive a successful
message, then click finish and your device
would automatically be rebooted.

That is all.

You can simply Re-lock the bootloader by
using the Relock option in the bootloader
unlock software.
