ZTE Open C, brand new, following instructions bootloader will not unlock; have rooted terminal

''locking this thread as duplicate, please continue at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1014768 /questions/1014768]''
I bought the device for developing purposes and just got it today. I am a US user by the way.
I followed the directions that are listed here for how to root the device and unlock the bootloader, however, the directions do not work.
I now have a rooted terminal using adb shell, however, when i reboot to the bootloader and run fastboot devices I get nothing, and no other fastboot command works.
This is absolutely ridiculous. I bought the phone from the ebay site just this week using the link here on Mozilla. I've even synced and built B2G for the device. But I can't unlock my bootloader? Defeats the purpose of "open" and makes me regret my purchase.
I would appreciate some prompt help in this matter.

I fixed this on my own.
And for you information that is the exact tool that I used.
And I'm not a novice; I know what a root shell is and I wouldn't have said that I have root if I didn't.
Maybe read the post before assuming you know more than the poster...
Anyway...
i just built cwm for the device and using the rooted shell dd'd the factory recovery image and dd'd the new one.
then i installed the ZTE Kis 3 firmware with the new recovery
then i rebooted to the bootloader and did "sudo fastboot oem unlock" and the bootloader was unlocked.
this did not working following the aforementioned guide using only the upgrade tool otherwise i wouldn't have posted.

  • Brand new iMacs with Lion will not read DVD-R

    Our business has just purchased 3 x brand new iMacs (3.4Ghz) pre-loaded with OSX Lion 10.7.2 and NONE of them will read a DVD-R containing important files I need to access. However, the trusty 2 year old iMac running Snow leopard sees the files instantly....what's wrong with Lion...?
    My 2 year old MacBook pro was updated with Lion a few months ago and hey, it stopped reading DVD-R's....how interesting....! It can't be ALL of the superdrives failing, so it's obviously a fault with the OS...seems to be a VERY common problem, so what's the problem in getting it fixed?

    Contact Apple Service, iMac Service or Apple's Express Lane. Do note that if you have AppleCare's protection plan and you're within 50 miles (80 KM) of an Apple repair station, you're eligible for onsite repair since yours is a desktop machine.

  • Brand New iPod Touch 4G will not charge, or turn on

    Hello.
    I have a brand new iPod Touch 4G, and when I plug it into my computer, nothing happens. My computer for some reason is not reading this iPod Touch;
    I have no other way to charge it.
    No damage has been done to the product from my observation.
    I have tried to restore it, reset it, and other things like that, but iTunes still isn't picking it up, as well as my computer..
    I am on a Windows 7 Starter Notebook, with 3 USB ports (that probably are not high-powered), and for some reason it just doesn't want to charge.
    I'm going to take it to school with me later to see if it will charge, but in the mean time, do you guys have anything that could possibly get my computer to start reading this iDevice?
    thanks,
    Matt

    I have tried a different machine, and it is not my computer.
    I have plugged a different iPod into this charger and it charges just fine.
    So, it's the iPod its self.
    I read an article somewhere and it said that
    If your iPod is formatted to work with Macintosh, windows will not read it.
    So, I'm thinking my iPod is formatted for Macintosh, (I cannot format it for windows), because it is completely dead, and it won't turn on.
    So, should I try a wall charger as my last resort to try and get it to turn on?!
    Thanks,
    Matt

  • Brand New 27" iMac i5 will not boot after installing software updates

    I just purchased my new iMac 2 nights ago. I have been getting it setup with my apps, mobile me account, etc, and luckily just setup time machine and let it do a full backup.
    I just ran Software Update for the first time, and now the machine will not boot. It hangs on the grey screen for about 1 minute before the Apple logo comes up. About 30 seconds after the Apple logo comes up, the grey spinning gear shows up, and about 1 minute after that I get the grey screen of death (You must restart your computer).
    Any suggestions? A little frustrated here....

    If you mean did I receive error messages, No, I didn't. However, the desktop reverted to the default purple night-sky looking thing, my applications and such all disappeared from the dock, and I couldn't open any files or folders (you don't have permission to ...), etc. I tried signing out and back in, rebooting, using a second admin account on the computer, creating a new admin account, etc. I ran Disk Utility, hardware checker, etc. No errors were found, and nothing changed. I could see all my files and folders, but they had a small red circle in the corner, indicating "locked" or "no permission".
    I'll find the lines from the console log if that will help. The error showed up immediately and is in the computer's attempt to access the user/library/application support/sync services and same path to user/library/logs/sync services/log. (or something reasonably close to this. If you can use the exact path, I will get it) The link between my settings and files, and a password is apparently corrupted or something, so that the computer won't even let me change the desktop or any file, so I can't save, edit or discard anything, and can't drag files to another computer on the home network.
    At least I'm still under the 90 day warranty, so I can call tomorrow. At this point, the SMART check says the drive is good, so I assume it's software. The only things new are the three auto Apple software updates I installed yesterday, so I immediately suspect them. But who knows?
    Does this help you at all?

  • TS1569 Brand new wireless aluminum keyboard will not accept passcode

    .......... to pair with brand new macbook air. Apple Care support can't figure this out. Just tried a second, identical keyboard in two days. Same issue. First keyboard worked flawlessly with mid 2010 macbook pro. I'm ******!

    I just does not accept that it should be nessecarry to use a usb keyboard when buying a brand new mac!
    And luckily I managed to solve this in the end
    My setup was is with a keyboard that was previously paired worth my MBP, and I tried a lot of things, but what did it in the end was this:
    First I unpaired the keyboard from the MBP using http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1809?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US. Only, this time I ignored the first step which reads: "Press and release the On/Off switch on the wireless keyboard to turn it off." Thinking of it, how would the the keyboard know that it is unpaired, if it is turned off?
    The 2 thing I did differently this time was that I did not power on the keyboard until it actually said so on the screen. This means that I powered on the Mini, waited until I had selected the language using the Trackpad, waited until the "Connect Keyboard" dialog appeared on the screen. Then I turned on the keyboard in pairing mode...
    That's basically what I did to be successful! Hope it will help somebody else

  • BRAND NEW iPod Touch 2g will not power up

    I just received a new iPod Touch 2g via FedEx today, and it won't power up at all. I've tried connecting it to my PC (Vista 32-bit) and the screen remains completely blank. I've tried doing the hard reset (holding the home and power buttons down for 10 sec.) and the screen also just stays blank.
    This is the first time I can remember a piece of hardware being DOA...is this merely a glitch? Is there anything else I can try to fix this?

    I have had my iPod Touch 2g for a few weeks and have not used it a huge amount yet. I was very upset to find that after placing it in it's new Krusell case this evening and trying to turn it on (wake from sleep) a few hours later, it was completely dead. Dodo like.
    Pressing the power button or the wake up button did nothing. I eventually found this thread and tried the power and wake up button together for 10 seconds. This seemed to work and it now appear to be fine.
    A bit unnerving though, as I am working hard to get all my apps and data together so that I can use it as my PDA going forward. I need to move away from the old Sony Clie that has served me so well for about six years. It needs charging too often and I know the Palm platform is undeveloped.
    I hope the iPod Touch doesn't let me know. Gave me a fright.
    Hope you get yours going again...

  • Our brand new quad core imac will not start up.  We hear a drive and fan noise but the screen remains black. Any suggestions?

    The computer shut down on its own while we were gone and will not start up again.  When we press the power button we hear drive and fan noises but no chime and the screen remains black.  Any suggestions?

    A pretty common thing for computers that have been shipped is a RAM chip becoming dislodged just enough to cause what you are describing. Try re-seating your RAM chips. Basically just pull them out and push them back in. Take a look at this article if you need some direction on this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1423

  • New mac mini system will not recognize wireless keyboard and trackpad.

    My brand new mac mini system will not initialize properly.  The return on the track pad are not being recognized, although scrolling is. Any others find this?  Support could not figure this out on the phone.  They sent me out to get new batteries and now they are closed.  Batteries have been changed and still nothing.

    My Mac MINI gave me one heck of a time trying to get it  to recognize my Bluetooth mouse and keyboard. both Apple brand.
    I finally had to connect an old USB mouse and keyboard to get the silly thing to connect. 
    Don't forget to repair permissions. 
    I also had to shut the computer down and start it back up a couple of times before it would connect.  I think it has to do with the new Bluetooth 4.0 wireless technology.
    I also turned off my Bluetooth devices and turned them on again, then I pulled the batteries out a couple of times and tried again and again.
    I also put in new battries even thiough the ones I replaced were about a week old.
    Finally, the MINI recognised the mouse and keyboard.
    I wish I could tell you which thing did the trick.

  • I have just opened my brand new Macbook Pro and I'm a first time mac user. I have tried to download flash to enable me to watch you tube clips, but on trying to download it, it says I need to close Safari but after doing so, it still won't respond.

    Actually you need to quit Safari which is different from closing.  With Safari open go the menu bar for Safari/Quit Safari.

  • Just bought a new pc and itunes will not open. I have tried thto repair and reinstall but still no itunes

    just bought a new pc and itunes will not open. I have tried thto repair and reinstall but still no itunes

    Best route here is to uninstall iTunes completely using the Windows Control Panel.
    Make sure you know exactly which version of Win 7 you're running.
    Restart your computer from cold (with no iTunes).
    Go to Apple website and download the correct version for your operating system.  Install following Apple prompts.
    Once installed, close iTunes.
    Restart your computer from cold (with new iTunes).
    Start iTunes - all should be operating well!  Good luck ...
