hboot image - dumped! - Legend Android Development

I dumped my hboot 1.00.0000 (dump_image) in the hopes someone can work their magic. I'm just a mortal and reverse engineering is beyond my skill set.
Here's the file:

you're posting this in the hopes of s-off, i reckon?

yup, but after speaking with the revolutionary guys it seems a bit pointless (I'm no dev and was just trying to be helpful).

I have a shipping SPL with S-OFF

Just been trying and failing to use the new rooting method that doesn't unlock the bootloader, when I noticed that when in FASTBOOT & HBOOT, the first line of text reads:
NEXUSONE PVT SHIP S-OFF
Now, I am certain I had checked this before and it was S-ON, but I can't remember if this was before I had sent it back to HTC for a repair, or maybe it is due to installing the pre-release 2.2 update.zips?
Either way, is this of any use to anyone?
its S-ON for me and im on stock frf72
are you sure you dont have a holiday nexus (phones given to employees and special prelease testing)
If it was a holiday phone it would say ENG S-OFF, not SHIP S-OFF
Ps. This was in development a minute ago... I put it there for a reason lol
ATT band phone, rooted, 2.2, S-ON

Engineering phone & Holiday phone are not the same thing.
Oh, I thought they both had the 768Kb SPL?
Either way, mine was bought from Google in late Jan, standard battery cover and the SPL 100% used to be S-ON.
Is this really of no use to anyone? I thought it might be handy for the relocking bootloader quest?

well if you sent it in to get it that way...its not gonna help much since we cant make a full image of the phone. are u unlocked now? can you relock?
Ah didn't know that it couldn't be dumped, just assumed it could be after reading that some folks had got their hands on the ENG SPL. Guess this is a non-starter then. Bugger.
Also I can't be sure that it is down to HTC, but it's all I can think of that would have changed it.

My N1 is running stock build ERD56C with bootloader locked - HBOOT says ENG S-OFF.
My battery cover has the AndroidBug waving the flag with the link to the holiday phone game on it and my bootanimation is the one that's included in the latest CyanogenMod 6 release (you may have frequented those threads about that, I pulled the anim out of my phone and posted it on Modaco - not sure if it was my bootanim the cyanogen guys used tho?! link: http://android.modaco.com/content/google-nexus-one-nexusone-modaco-com/311351/build-version-erd56c/).
Anyway, I've been told by a few folks that I've got a holiday phone but I guess if I'm ENG S-OFF then it must be an engineering one? Certainly it didn't seem like my bootanimation had been widely seen before...
Question is, may my phone be any use in the quest to relock the bootloader?

it MAY be possible. I remember that we got a hold of the Engineering SPL for the G1 when one of the Devs got their g1 back with the eng spl still on it
Interesting.
Well if anyone knows what commands need typing to try, post away!
OP this may by the rumor about FRF91 fixing the non-unlocked rooting method that surfaced with FRF72. I cannot confirm this though.
Er, what's that got to do with S-OFF SPLs?

[Q] S-ON from AlphaRevX

So i searched a bit around but could not really understand what the right method to get this working. I need to get back to stock S-ON after i have used AlphaRevX. So many people claim i can just flash a signed RUU and the bootloader will get overwritten.. in my case it says "Bypassed" and i am still S-OFF after a signed RUU load. Someone talking about ABD? But couldnt understand what i should do about that either.. can anyone explain or link a torturial who takes this step by step? This forums contains so much helpfull information, the only problems is that is it scattered around the whole forum and for a newbie like me its difficult to understand what complies with what.. So i have to ask Im sorry if this is a dumb question but i cant figure it out.

Nope, still S-OFF after flashing signed RUU..
Bypassing the overwriting of the bootloader.

Try this process. It was posted in the forum earlier this summer.

The process is very simple. You replace the Revolutionary HBOOT image with the one specified in the thread. Once that is done you can run RUU and it will be able to overwrite the HBOOT and then you will be back to stock.

Request to Revolutionary - Hboot 1.16.000

Since Hboot 1.16.000 is not supported by Revolutionary yet, I thought that maybe we can make a formal request via this thread.
Hopefully, the number of users with Hboot 1.16.000 is big enough to turn their attention towards the Incredible S Hboot 1.16.000.
So, how many of you want the - Inc S - Hboot 1.16.000 unlocked?
PS: If my idea seems out of line, you can just delete the thread.

I'm guessing phones with hboot 1.16.000 are really new ones since i got mine about a month ago and it had hboot 1.13.000.
Yep, my inc S is 2 weeks old...

My HTC IncS was manufactured in June/11.
My boot is H1.16...
I bought an XTC Clip. I receive today in my house.
I have HBOOT 1.16.0000 and S-ON.
no need to do S-OFF to put on custom ROM.
I got someone else to do it for me, he remote controlled my computer and typed in all the commands. I'm happily using cyanogenmod 7.
Sorry I can't tell you how to do it exactly, as I didnt do it myself.
If someone here knows a lot about fastboot etc, here is a few commands I think he tried to do. see if you can fill in the blanks.
First, unlock the bootloader at HTC dev site. you need to log in and follow steps. once that is done it will say s-on so don't panic!!! Then what he did is flash a custom recovery/bootloader so I can flash ROM'S and zips. I copied the ROM onto the root of the SD card and installed it using the interface and it worked.
When I did this it was *supposed* to work but it still did not boot. I couldn't boot any ROM's except a 'MiUi', but it was really buggy. So my friend got me to install cyanogenmod on my phone using the bootloader, he flashed the boot.zip from the MiUi to the phone and it booted up with cyanogenmod! Then he put back the previous boot.zip from cyanogenmod and it worked! dunno why, but something must've gave it a kick.
sorry if it's a bit confusing, but it is a long process and a lot of trial and error. be sure what you're doing. You do not need revolutionary hack to do it. ALso, everyone says you need S-OFF, this is not true, it only matters if you want to flash complex things such as RADIO's which are protected. But to access root files and to install custom ROM's it's fine.
Hopefully someone can fill in the blanks here and come up with steps on how to do it
good luck
Thanks for sharing with us. I've replied to your other thread.
Cheers
And I have replied back

[Q]dumping hboot from phone/extract from OTA possible?

I was wondering if its possible to dump the hboot to a file for analysis? (S-On) And does it use any form of encryption?
Download any zip with an HBOOT.IMG inside and analysis this
Thanks! A bit confused where to find stuff as I'm a recent iPhone convert.
(Though not unfamiliar with assembly etc as I'm currently pursuing a MSc in EE) just thinking that it would be interesting to look into this S-on/off for my new one as it seems nobody is able to make it happen yet on the most recent firmwares

Certain portions of hboot are encrypted, I believe. The problem is that once modified, it will be unsigned and cannot be flashed with s-on. You would need HTC's signing keys.
Thank you for the reply, I'm aware of the requirement of a HTC signed hboot, I was thinking more in terms of looking for weaknesses and possible exploits to enable s-off on 1.54. Don't have great hopes for success but I figure its worth a shot.

[Q] I need help achieving S-OFF to be able to convert phone to GPE Edition

Hey guys! I am an absolute noob in these things and I have no idea of what to do what so ever. I was following the method of converting from wonderhowto with the help of moonshine but did not achieve S-OFF. I tried Rumrunner and the same thing happened. I still cannot achieve S-OFF. My Hboot version is 1.57 and I really want to convert my phone to GPE with OTA updates and stuff like that. If anyone can help me with the whole process in details. I will take it slowly and finish this conversion as soon as possible.
I saw somewhere that I need to flash some other rom first and then I have to then run rumrunner but the thing is I dont even know how to flash rom and stuff like that.. So if anyone can help me achieve my target.. I will be thankful.. and if there is a post like this before, please link as I have already searched as much before posting this up.
Btw my phone has never been rooted.. its 100% stock..

Sunshine S-OFF is your best bet with hboot 1.57. The downside it cost $25.
