Root Problems S-off and hboot 1.58

[MTod]

hello,

I've been following Remanifest's guide for s-off on my Evo v. everything was going good until I got to the wire trick part. I run the program and after a long time it keeps saying "Test 3: ADB detected, but device is not in JuopunutBear boot-mode
Press ENTER to exit....."

Not sure what the problem is. I've uninstalled htc sync. debugging is on, fastboot is off and I'm connected charge only as per the Juopunutbear instructions. I also noticed they stopped supporting windows os. Is there a way for me to proceed with getting my device S-off?

You might want to try posting this in remanifest's guide thread. He's usually pretty good about supporting the users that are following his guide and there's really no need to start a new thread.

What screen is your phone on when you run ControlBear,exe?

Have you tried running it with a live ubuntu disk?

I had nothing but problems trying to use Windows for s-off on my friends Evo and got it on my first try with ubuntu.

What screen is your phone on when you run ControlBear,exe?

I backed up with 4ext, then rebooted. It would have run from my homescreen

 

[remanifest]

Have you enabled USB debugging (yes, I'm assuming), and is fast boot disabled in your phone?

Also, is your command prompt an administrator command prompt?

I'm going to go to bed soon... please, next time you have a question or need some help, stick around for the answers - it's impossible to help you if we can't troubleshoot.

yes and yes

I thought maybe I overlooked something so I went through it again. I noticed I was supposed to be asked to accept the unlock token, I never was. I just got this in my command prompt

C:\shooter-root-soff-fix\S-OFF>fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
sending 'unlocktoken' (0 KB)... OKAY
writing 'unlocktoken'... INFOunlock token check successfully
OKAY

so I deleted the unlock code form the s-off folder, downloaded it again from my email put it back in my s-off folder and tried that step again, got the same thing as before. phone also did not reboot

If your bootloader says UNLOCKED at the top, you're fine - no need to repeat that.

Please verify again that fast boot is disabled in the "Power" section under settings, and that USB Debugging is enabled - I'm sorry to harp on that again, but that's the only thing I can think that would be causing the problem. fastboot & adb are working, so I know it's not a driver issue.

I'm not finding anyone else with this issue, except for some people in Pakistan - who resolved it by ensuring the phone had USB debugging enabled and "fast boot" disabled.

The program has been tested to be working in all Windows versions from XP through 8, so that shouldn't be the issue - there's some setting problem on the phone, most likely.

If you'd like to try it from the computer angle, this Easy Linux guide that I wrote will get you into a working copy of Linux that you can run from a DVD or a USB stick. Everything as far as setting up the system is automated with easy to follow instructions.

usb debugging is checked and fastboot is unchecked. I'm going to try in on linux and see how it goes

With linux, I got to the wiretrick but must have been doing something wrong cause i couldn't get it, also at one point my battery fell out and I had to restart the whole thing. I just wanted to be done for now since I have plans for tonight but my phone keep booting into the juopunutbear arrow screen. followed their trouble shoot guide and it says I have to format my sd card. not sure what to do at this point. also did control -f and it restored the backup but it didn't seem to do anything
