You will receive an email with the attachment: Unlock_code.bin. Save this file in the
same folder as your fastboot files (For Example: C:\Android).
http://developer.android.com /sdk/index.ht
If, after a short period of time, you have not yet received the mail, or you have received
an email from HTC, but does not contain an attached file, it is possible that more
stringent spam filters and anti-virus programs will block this mail or attachment.
In order to ensure that you receive the email with the attachment, we suggest you
consider using a non-corporate email server as corporate servers tend to have more
stringent attachment policies. If you have not received the email at all, please check
your spam folder in your email client to check if the email was filtered out.

Step 13
On your phone you will now see the
disclaimer. Please read this carefully
as this action may void your warranty.
Use the Volume buttons to highlight
your choice, and the Power button to
make your selection. If you select Yes,
your phone will be reset to its factory
default settings, and your bootloader
will be unlocked. If you select No, your
phone will reboot and no modifications
will have been made.
Step 14
To re-lock your bootloader, in the command prompt, type: fastboot oem lock.
Note: This will not restore the factory default lock, but will simply re-lock the bootloader
so no further changes can be made. Furthermore, if you want to unlock your bootloader
again, simply repeat step 12 with your original unlock key file to unlock your phone
again.
