Hello guys,
I'm currently running pure stock 4.2.2, never rooted, never s-offed, never unlocked bootloader. As it is now possible to S-OFF using rumrunner s-off, my question is whether I'll be able to re-lock my bootloader without any evidence of unlocking it through HTCDev. I know it is possible to do with revone tool, but that only works on 1.44 Hboot. As far as I know, I should be able to downgrade Hboot after obtaining S-OFF with rumrunner, but I'm not sure.
TLDR : I want to unlock bootloader on 4.2.2 using HTCDev, can I get it back to state "Locked" then ? Any guide ?
Thanks

Hmm rumrunner tool requires an unlocked bootloader to work so I guess you would need to unlock it through HTCDev
But once S-OFF you can set it back to "Locked" instead of "Relocked". Have a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2475914
Worked for my HTC One and I'm now back on a "Locked" bootloader.

Thank you for your answer. I know that unlocking the bootloader will void warranty by my carrier (Orange Slovakia) but if it is possible to downgrade Hboot after S-OFF, I'd be able to get back status "Locked", there are many guides to do that. So the question is if I can downgrade from 1.54 to 1.44 after S-OFFing the 1.54. Also, will my carrier be informed about my unlocking through HTCDev ? Can they check whether it was unlocked once via HTCDev (although it is "Locked" now) ?
Ok so I bought my phone from O2 so it was completely stock and CID was O2___001. I s-off'd using rumrunner, then downgraded my hboot to stock 1.44 and ran revone to remove tampered and 're lock boot loader. I changed my CID to HTC__032 and flashed a RUU to subsequently update to sense 5.5 and the latest firmware. The hboot has not been flashed with a modified version as I didn't get the red text after downgrading and then running revone and RUU
My question is if I send my phone into HTC for repairs in the future should I keep the phone as is or try and revert to stock O2? The phone is now purely stock and unbranded. I prefer HTC repair to O2 anyway. The bootloader reads locked and it's s-off
Thanks!
Anyone ? Better to stay unbranded and full stock or carrier branded full stock for repairs? Can HTC know my phone was carrier branded originally?
Well, I'm usually able to dig myself out of messes I get myself into but this one has had me hunting a few hours. Here's the run-down.
1) S-OFF with 1.44 a while ago, rooted and unlocked bootloader
2) Got camera problem, would like to return phone to stock for warranty
3) Flashed a stock RUU, went fine. Stock recovery and bootloader work fine, hboot was upgraded to 1.55 (my mistake, should have noticed this)
4) Got sidetracked when trying to lock the bootloader and entered fastboot oem lock
So now I have a 're-locked' bootloader on 1.55 with S-OFF. I don't want to unlock through HTCDev, I can't use revone to unlock because I'm on 1.55, and I don't have a custom recovery, and can't flash one because I'm relocked.
Any ideas how I can unlock the bootloader here (or downgrade hboot, I have the zip but can't flash it)? I can probably handle the rest myself, after I smack myself over the head a few times.
The goal here is to have the bootloader 'LOCKED', and I'll then take my chances with S-ON, with the latest firmware but a downgraded (1.44) bootloader before handing it over for warranty purposes.
OK, it looks as though I can patch hboot files OK. Will take a look around for a patched one.
Hboot 1.44 will unlock using revone. Make sure to be on 1.x.x based ROM right after

Sorted, thanks. Found an older ROM that flashed fine with supercid. Think I'll keep S-OFF and just lock the bootloader. With this being a likely hardware issue I'm hoping I'll be fine with just that.
Help! I have previously s-off and unlocked bootloader and converted to GPE. Recently before sending to service, I have used Guru Reset to make it back to stock. Being desperate in erasing rooting traces, I have re-locked bootloader and s-on. Big mistake here as now I realize I can't unlock my bootloader via htcdev anymore, the disclaimer screen does not show no matter how I try. I am on the latest firmware, so Firewater does not work too. Basically I've tried everything I could find. I'm kinda stuck as there are no latest ruu to match my version, I could not s-off without unlocking and I could not unlock without resetting using a matching ruu. Any suggestions?
If motherboard is not changed then you can use previous unlock.bin file
from HTC One
Hello,
I'm currently 100% stock and locked boot loader. I'm wanting to reflash my ROM because I'm having issues. To reflash my handset with a RUU do I need my Bootloader unlocked?
If your phone is S-ON your bootloader must ne locked or re-locked to flash a RUU. If it's S-OFF, it doesn't matter (unlocked, locked or re-locked)
