Any sign of a Bootloader?
 
We got anything in the works for the Touch Pro? The Diamond was lucky enough to have it's available before the phone was even out.

That would be a great way to brick it! Each hardspl is made for its own individual devices DO NOT try to use diamond hardspl on touch pro

Please when the CDMA touch pro comes out DO NOT try to use the gsm hard spl on your CDMA touch pro

You were lucky enough to have it before the phone was out because it was released to Telus first.... unfortunately, hardSPL is one of those things that is difficult to do without a device, so...

Pshhhh, what do you know??? ;) J/K Thanks for the heads up about NOT using the Diamond unlocker.

Re: Any sign of a Bootloader?
 
Believe me, I was the tester for the HSPL, it's a lot of work, and if it wasn't for Oli, Cmonex and no2chem, you'd still be on the stock ROM.

The forum referenced is for a GSM raph, so I wouldn't look there. Have to wait for it to come out for the CDMA dump and then ask Cmonex for another 8 hours of her time:P.

Im more than happy to be a test dummy. I plan to buy a Touch Pro @ full retail next week.

Then I plan to use the information/software acquired here to put it on the VZW network.

Glad you like it, can't wait for you and others to start pumping out the cool stuff. I loved your mogul roms so I cant wait to see what you guys can do with the pro. Unfortunately I have to wait till 11/2 before I can get mines ordered.

I haven't really heard of any of the masters of unlocking this phone even asking for anyone's help. so i can only assume either they have them, or they don't really care about this phone lol. I just hope im wrong >.<

no2chem bought one the first night, so we shouldn't be worried. He's already on it.

Yes we are taking donations for a few more for further testing etc but for now since no2chem has one we are started working on the hardspl the more donations we can get the further and faster we can get with all aspects of the project

Re: Any sign of a Bootloader?
 
The bootloader is just what the name would suggest, a loader during the boot process. Long story short, it's called from the radio's bootloader once it reaches a certain point and begins to kick off the windows launch process. It checks back to the radio for it's version and is what allows certain key combinations to hard reset your phone or to enter the "bootloader" screen. Once there you can talk to it over a serial or usb link and send basic commands. Nothing you will want to mess with unless you want to learn just for the sake of it (like most technical guys!). One thing it does it flashing the new bootloaders, radios, screen splashes, or roms. Typically from htc is will not flash anything that is not "authenticated" as a official release. But the hard-spl or other spl hacks eliminate this and convince the device it's all ok. Furthermore it checks if the CID of the device (a text string) matches a certain one, and if not might block it. SuperCID is a wild card which unlocks most rom flashes.

This is a basic intro, search for more on xda-developers if you want more details.
