So I got an old HTV One (M8) and I wanted to try installing a different OS. The problem is: I cant unlock the bootloader without an account at htcdev but their e-mail service seems unavailable. If I register with an e-mail adress the e-mail never arrives. If I try to register again it says: email allready taken. Can anyone help me out who has allready a htcdev account?

I was guessing that doing a factory reset might allow access to the developer options.

Nah, in this case the problem they have is that they need a code specific to their phone and it can only be given to them by HTC using an online service they need to register to and the registration process isn't working. It's a website that's broken.
