This section is for Nexus One and if you have it and want to get S-Off, the procedures are in the Development section and look for Blackrose S-Off Hboot thread.

Based on discussion threads I have seen about the HTC Unlocked HBOOT, it probably needs to be done in FASTBOOT mode. You may want to search the HTC Sensation, Desire S and EVO 3D forums for answers or procedures.

With this HBOOT you will not get S-OFF, however since it is unlocked, you can flash custom ROMs, you just need to flash the custom ROM's boot.img manually in fastboot mode. Please search and discover how to do this as it has been discussed and documented several times in this forum.

I also have HBOOT 2.00 and S-ON, but as tpblake says I can flash any ROM I choose. You don't have to have S-OFF to flash custom ROMs.
In fact I'm still uncertain why you need S-OFF at all....

[Q] plis help stuck with bootloop after s-off

after s-off you need to flash ics hboot !!
then flash a rom of your choice !!
most important : make sure to flash a s-off kernel via fastboot
(an s-off user doesnt need to flash kernel via fastboot, but as you say you're stuck in a bootloop, you should try flashing an s-off kernel via fastboot)
good luck..

If you didn't choose to install the custom hboot the you need to unlock your s-off bootloader. You can use the same unlock key you got from htcdev the first time. Then flash the Rom and it should work.

anyone wanna help me out ? i was on the ICS rom last
Hboot 1.85.0025

yea im having problems.........i relocked the bootloader
now i can't boot into any rom , and im trying to flash the stock rom zip via hboot and it is not going through
i tried it on the computer , and it says i can update and it will start the process and go into the boot loader , then it says failed and wants to start a recovery process
any help is appreciated , and i have been reading every post i can find on the issue , as i just did this to my girlfriends phone last night..... this is slighty different as many links are dead , and im having trouble finding everything i need
i was on TWRP recovery , but now the bootloader is locked so i have no recovery at all , im going to try and flash the zip with a locked bootloader now , but i don't anticipate it working
ive pulled the factory RUU's from multiple threads , and i can't get them to install
i've been looking for a zip of the stock rom that i can try and flash on a unlocked bootloader so i can S-off , but i haven't found one i can get to boot
like i said , i tried this one
http://bionicgeeks.the-talk.net/t14-stock-rom-att-ics-de-odexed-zip-aligned-rooted-bloated
i flashed the boot.img from the zip , and then tried to flash the zip file via TWRP and it would not boot at all.... hung at the screen after the beats splash screen
do i need to flash the stock recovery ? i don't have it if so ........ any advice what to try next ?
Ruu allows me to initiate update ...... starts sending to phone then says sending forever
....failed
any help
all the Ruu's i download send for a long time and then fail
i was not on a stock rom before trying any of this
i relocked the bootloader and then i have been trying to run the RUU
no other steps need to be taken ?
i have been searching for a working RUU all day....... none of them will actually install the firmware.... any ideas from anyone on what i should do
maybe some personal help ? im willing to try anything at this point
OK slick.... First... Slow down...
You screwed yourself badly here by just running off the handle...
First... Where in the world is your phone now...
Bootloader status...
Recovery...
Last kernel you fastbooted...
And I swear to whatever you call holy... If you ask what fastboot is...
You can find a working RUU on goo.im
Sent from my Vivid 4G using Tapatalk 4
found a zip i was able to flash of the stock rom finally worked from hboot with a locked bootloader
now i can get to s-off
I don't know why you would have such a hard time finding the right RUU. It's still on HTC's website for God's sake.

[Q] HTC J One S-OFF with Rumrunner

Hi there, sorry for my first post being so needy...
I am trying to root my HTC J One and it seems that I first need to S-OFF the device. I'm trying to use Rumrunner as my bootloader is at 1.54 unfortunately...but I get the error "looks like device is not rooted AND lacks an unsecure kernel. su or FU!!"
I'm using the HTC Universal version of rumrunner as there doesn't seem to be a device specific version for the HTC J One.
I've uninstalled HTC Sync Manager and uninstalled my virus scanning software and turned off my firewall. Anyone have any suggestions on where to go next? Thank you for your help!

Firstly, only the Verizon HTC One needs to be S-OFF'ed prior to root. All other models need to be bootloader unlocked and rooted to get S-OFF.

Thanks for your reply! So do I need to unlock the bootloader prior to rooting the device?

Hello,
I have unlocked the bootloadres using Revone... otherwise you may try Rumnummer.

It seems as mentioned here that Revone / Rumrunner are needed to unlock the bootloader, but neither seem to be working (revone doesn't work as my bootloader is version 1.54, I did try it anyway though...and rumrunner gives me the error mentioned above...
Or is all of this unnecessary to root it? I kind of hope it is!
I'm sorry to bump...does anyone have any suggestions?
