Please someone help me going back to factory reset with custom rom and also i want to lock bootloader and turn s-off :crying:
I'm totally confused! its showing s-on right now, should i need to s-off it?
I don't think its possible to turn s-on to s-off right now, the phone is still too new with much to explore.
Besides...i think before you need can do any of this stuff, u definitely have to unlock your bootloader.
Anyway, the last few steps that you followed in htcdev in unlocking your bootloader explains how to relock your bootloader. Whether it relocks the factory bootloader lock, that remains to be seen.
Hi guys,
I just updated my HTC M8(european) to Lollipop and after updating i hardreset the phone, which caused that all my photos and videos are wiped out. As I understood, undeleting files requires access to root and rooting is not possible without unlocking the bootloader. As I found out, it is only possible to unlock the bootloader by the HTC provided token and my question is:
1) is it possible to re-lock the bootloader as the original?
2) if re-locking requires S-OFF, is there any other option then the 25 USD sunshine?
Thanks in advance!

1. No without S-OFF
2. Sunshine doesn't work with Lollipop yet

1. Try "fastboot oem lock" from bootloader
My M8 is also S-ON and I could relock with this method.
You will have "RE-LOCKED" message in bootloader.
I didn't mention that as they said they wanted it locked as it was originally, which can't be done without S-OFF. But yes, you can relock the phone using the above command

Dont go stupid, can't do anything without an unlocked BL and S-OFF...... why on earth did you ditch s-off before solving problems.....
