I'm confused here:
"and no i have s-off but my bootloader is locked? could i just unlock my bootloader and root or should i redo the s-off"
So do you have s-off or do you not have s-off
Just unlock the boot loader add a recovery and flash away...if it says s-off on hboot then there is no need to redo s-off, a ruu will not remove s-off

I'm s-off even though I messed up on the wire trick and have to RUU, but my bootloader is locked

lf your s-off just unlock the bl and proceed

Do fast boot OEM relock then flash the ruu and redo everything to get s off and root

I can't do that, I try with htc-dev method flashing unlock_code.bin but doesn't work...do you think I need to make another unlock code? I don't...
EDIT: ok, I did again the unlock code procedure and now my bootloader is unlocked...and S-OFF is still there...
I don't know if everything is ok...but it seems...thanks for your help

I thought once s-off you could just "fastboot oem unlock". But I may have seen that on the GE conversion thread, in which s-off wouldn't matter cause you can just do that anyway...

Hey man , sorry but currently there is no way to go s-off or downgrade on 1.54 hboot and htc dev is the only way to unlock so that you can root your phone.
And when I use HTC dev I can't lock the bootloader without loosing my warranty?

HTCDev is meant for developers, even though anybody can register and unlock their bootloader. The only way to not void your warranty is to be S-Off and remove the tampered flag and change the relocked back to locked. As the previous poster mentioned, there is no way to downgrade Hboot 1.54 unless you are already S-Off so the risk of voiding your warranty will always be there until you can go S-Off, but as you are already on Hboot 1.54 and are S-On, you have no other choice than to remain as you are until a solution is available for the newer Hboot versions.
Btw, you only use HTCDev to get an initial unlock code for your bootloader, flashing that code requires you to use fastboot commands which is the same for relocking your bootloader ... HTC only provide you the code at first unlock.
Okay and when i unlock my bootloader via htcdev, will there be at any point of time a solution to get rid of the tampered and relocked and make it only locked?
the only way I know to get rid of the tampered flag is through having s-off
Lets say i'm running a custom rom with e.g. the TWRP recovery and i unlocked the bootloader with htcdev.
when i just flash CWM Recovery, restore the RUU (its not an exe, a backup of course ) and lock the bootloader again it will say "relocked" won't it? How can i get s-off in the state i mentioned above?

Yes it will say relocked.
You can not get s-off. There is no exploit, and no work around to use the old exploit.

[Q] Help UnBrick.

Seems like I require S-OFF.
Currently I got custom recovery and ROM but it only boots into fastboot until S-OFF is achieved.
HBoot is 1.44 S-ON, locked with tampered flag(Not the new 1.54/1.45 HBoot).
CID has been set to 11111111 and has not been unlocked on HTCDev before.
How would I proceed? or is this a complete paper weight? Phone doesn't have warranty anymore.
Thanks.
Try running an RUU while the phone is connected and in bootloader mode.

Don't use a ruu higher than your main version so you can still s off

Unlocking the bootloader with htcdev.com will erase your phone to prevent unauthorized access to your files, it's a security feature otherwise anyone able to access your phone for 5 minutes would be able to unlock it, flash a custom recovery and access your files without the need of any pin/passcode. If you already unlocked your phone then your data is gone and there is nothing you can do about it. Btw you can easily unlock the bootloader without htcdev.com if your phone is s-off without loosing your data but unfortunately it's to late.
