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?
This is why requiring permission from the manufacturer to unlock your bootloader is completely flawed.
All I can suggest is contacting HTC very noisily on social media, and through as many means as possible.
Not sure if people still use it but you might have better luck posting on XDA.
XDA is the most active modding community out there.
Was very active in the android modding community from 09 to maybe '13 when life and Reddit got in the way. The site clearly went to shit, wasn't sure if the forums had too. I'm very pleased to see it's still an active community:)
The forums are really where it's at. Haven't really used the main site since about that time, that much is true...
If nothing turns up here I'll try it over there. Thanks for the hint!
Allright, someone who had access helped me to get the unlocktoken. Thank you Lemmyverse!
How did you get it?
A member of lemmy wrote me that he had a htcdev account from years ago and offered me to send me the unlock token for my phone after sending him the OEM identifier token.
Search xda developers website with the phone model. Surely you'll find guide there
Hey, I've been dealing with this for exactly 7 days. I can never receive an e-mail and the HTC service has been stalling me for 7 days regarding my created ticket. Can someone who is already registered please help me? I need this
