there is no reason
i did it

With the advent of the 4.2.2 sense roms reading the CID to determine which data icons you get, S-Off has a purpose there. For us with AT&T phones that means unless we don't change the AT&T CID we get AT&T data icons automatically. Changing that to either a generic(HTC__001) or US dev edition (BS_US001) with the fastboot oem rewritecid command will make you have the international icons. You could also use superCID, but for me at least I was having issues receiving texts using superCID.

If you don't know what s-off is then the chances are that you really don't need it.
Imagine if you can that your phone is a big box. With s-on that box is made of steel: you can drop it, throw it at a wall, store it in a tank of water and you're not likely to do it any real harm. With s-off it's made low grade glass.

If u don't know what it's for then you don't need it. It's as simple as that. Not a lot else to add because if u knew what S-OFF was you'd know if u need it

yes you can unroot simply by flashing a stock rom and use the revone tool to lock or relock your bootloader. if you re-lock, your warranty is still voided but if you lock the bootloader then you are good to go.

Might come off as rude, but it's the damn true. One could apply this to many things in life.

Agreed if you haven't read about it in the past two months or had HTC before and know what it is it may be best to keep s on so you don't brick yourself. S off allows you to change stuff that the average flashaholic should not change. One wrong move in a hex editor or ruu mode and you sir will have a very nice shoe horn

S-Off is for alot of low level stuff on the phone, flashing radios, hboot, getting rid of the red development text, tampered text from recovery, also it is possible to sim unlock with s-off although there isnt a 100 percent success rate atm, also changing your device identifier (CID) is possible with s-off, this allows you to flash any RUU that's available (SuperCID).

[Q]RUU not flashing

Im Trying to flash a 1.28.401.7 Europe RUU.... but its failing... i've Flashed it before and it worked...
I'm currently on 4.2.2 S-On and a tampred logo in bootloader... plzz help... i need to downgrade to get s off

unfortunately not possible, because you have a newer bootloader with official 4.2.2 build
