I'm pretty sure you can't "relock" your bootloader, HTC keep records of which phones have been unlocked through htcdev.com so even if you do manage to go back to stock, they will still know that it has been unlocked at some point.

You can relock your bootloader, but it will say relocked so htc will know about it. Are you sure its hardware fault though? Have you tried flashing another ROM/kernel?

default if the phone itself will be fixed

I tried different roms and radios but no luck...it looks like my $600 phone will be turned into a high end android media device....any suggestions???? Is it worth to tell htc that my phone is unlocked and then ask what they can do to help me???

Have you tried asking the threads of the ROMs you have tried?

Return back to stock relock bootloader and take it back and see what that your screen shouldn't move

That is clearly a hardware / manufacturing defect, so they will most probably fix it despite the unlocked bootloader. But like the poster above me said, relock the bootloader and flash the correct RUU before taking it back.
Lol definitely shouldn't move I think gameloft killed my screen as I've never noticed any problem before I'm more worried about three saying I must cover the costs as they've tried several times with my n96, n97, x10i but I stood my ground and got all of these phones for free in one contract at no extra cost I'm guessing it wont be as smooth when they see bootloader relocked

But its hardware fault not your fault I don't believe playing a game would make your screen move I could understand if it got hot and changed colour but it shouldn't move just try and see what that say if that say no go to HTC

Flashing blank screen witout any logo or boot screen.

I need help! My Wildfire won't turn on, screen and red light flashes but no boot screen???
I was updating my Wildfire S and all went well but when it try to reboot it stuck on flashing blank screen and flashing red light. I cannot get into anything (Bootloader, Recovery etc). Only way I can stop flashing is to take out the battery but when I insert it back and push power button it starts flashing again. I can't get into anything.
I searched for last three days and didn't see anybody having same problem. I would really appreciate any help. Hard brick has been described in Google as no respond from phone (no lights nothing etc.) so I am hoping (and praying) there could be something done based on the symptoms.
What kind of flashing? Does the phone vibrate at all? What was your bootloader version and were you s-off?

I would take it back to htc and tell them that it died during an official update. If you were s-off you might have been able to do something about it. Sorry bud

Same for me !
Exactly the same for me ... grey flashing screen with red LED after try to update with RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.26.401.3_Radio_47.23e.35.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_261695_signed.exe
Any news ?:crying:
It's hardbrick. If u r soff u could jtag to fix it.
What happened is, u removed battery/some error caused not to update, after updating one radio/hboot the other hboot/radio. As radio hboot comes as pairs, one can't live without the other. So your radio is killed by the bootloader. And the phone is dead.
I posted around one hundred comments about this. Nobody listens.
Don't go to latest radio/ hboot from 0.90.0000. Do step by step. As the latest hboot/radio isn't compatible to oldest.

You can JTAG without s-off. Its just the cost of one will probably outweigh the price of the phone. You could try taking it to a repair shop And asking if they do JTAG repairs. You might find someone willing to do it for a reasonable price.

S-on cannot fight against the JTAG. It would be completely counter productive for htc to make their devices protected from the devices they use to fix damaged phones. JTAG takes control of the CPU and can force new firmware onto the nand. S-on or s-off, shouldn't make a difference as the JTAG is mounted to the motherboard of the device and can actually "trap" the processes that the CPU issues and issue them one at a time! JTAG is the man when it comes to bricked device revival

You guys don't know what you are talking about :d As for op question if you still got waranty go take it there. Otherwise I think it would cost around 30 euro to get it fixed. Nothing else can be done.

[Q] Hardwer or Software problem?

I'm just found a one X on used phone shop on the net.
It's really cheap. But it's have a problem.
Won't turn on ,just appeared the HTC logo.
May it can switch to bootloader.
I'm asking for hboot and son/off.
Waiting for reply.
Is this a softwer or hardwer problem?
Any solution to repair this?
Pls reply me as fast as u can.

It's likely to be software. Does it say **UNLOCKED** in the top line of bootloader?
Sent from my One X
By the sounds of it its in a bootloop, which probably means someone tried to flash it but failed.
Its fixable but I'd check if it boots to bootloader first as said above:
Hold power and Volume Down to boot to bootloader.
Soon I got some pic from the bl.
Btw, thanks for fast reply

HTC One X will not fully boot (water damaged many months ago)

I dropped my HTC One X in water months ago and though that it was well and truly dead. However, I recently thought it might be a good idea to see if it works, gave it a charge but it won't boot up properly. I can get to the screen in the picture by holding the power button and volume down combo, not sure what to do though, any help would be great.
Thanks guys
Try a factory reset, if that does not work and you do not have warranty you can try to unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery and a new rom.

Will that be easy to do? Or will I have to take it to a repair shop?
Thanks again.
Nothing is easy, you need to read up on how to unlock via the HTC dev site, how to flash with fastboot and how a recovery works.

Returning HTC One M8 To The Tmobile Store

Im Still In My 14 Days Of Returning My Device, But The Bootloader Says **Tampered** And **unlocked** I Have S-On Tho.. And I've removed the red letters When I Boot The Device On... And if they find out it was tampered with , can they charge me on my bill?? im on my way to work and wanted to go after work (6pm, and they close at 8pm) Should i worry?
Thanks In advance and sorry for the question, i just really need help...:good:
? Anyone please...

Why don't you just try? It's not like they'll call the cops on you; the worst they can do is refuse the return. It's also very unlikely that the associates know how to get into the bootloader in the first place, so it probably won't even come up.
How do I return my HTC one m8 back to stock to exchange I'm having battery issues and I have rooted unlocked boot loader and am running venom Rom and am s-on still ??

You just have to look for a basic stock rom and flash that. As long as looks like basic stock, the reps in the store won't notice (or look for) evidence that it's rooted. Carriers (especially T-Mobile and Sprint) generally don't care.
Can I just flash my backup I did a backup before flashing the venom Rom?

Yep, that should work just fine. I did the same when I traded my Sprint M7 in a couple of weeks back.

I dont think that would happen, I have returned a few mytouch phones way back when after having custom roms and nothing has happened. That was many years ago tho and I am not sure if HTC has changed any policies on that since then.
I just went in to tmobile just to figure out if they had any in stock., spoke with a salesman about the restock fee...and he said there is no voiding it unless, they run a diagnosis on the phone but it's unlocked and tampered...should I take the chance and tell them to run it?

if its a hard ware issue the soff wont cause an issue.
