I'm just looking for the best way to gain s-off.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Oh and I have been reading and using google search. I'm not new to this but before I root a phone for the first time I like to hear from xda members that have already done it.

After unlocking with HTC-dev u must instal a custom recovery (eg: Clockwork mod)
U can't flash kernels or roms with stock rom..

I meant do I need to fastboot into recovery to flash kernels. On the evo 3d HTC dev unlocked that's how you had to with s-on.

With the s-on it makes it difficult i assume and searched for methods of making it s-off but havent found anything. Can anyone please let me know of any ways that are known to root if any for this particular hboot. Thank you in advanced.

You can try to Root the phone with the Visionary APK, but it just gives a half-root, not a full root. Clockwork and AmonRa will not change the Recovery without S-OFF.
Until someone figures out how to set S-ON to S-OFF, we cannot install any ROMs.
I just flashed to CM 7 and I was wondering when I come to sell the phone, how would I "flash" back the rom, so it's s-on and the default 2.2 OS? Hope someone can help me.

Not sure what you need help with??? Does it have a custom recovery such as clockworkmod or amonra? If so you can flash any Rom to it in recovery or load up an ruu in bootloader if you want it stock. Your choice

Superwipe is a good idea so I'm glad your @ least doing this, it may be easier to help if you give more info, is this happening from the very first custom rom, after root? What method did you use to root? Can you write down everything on bootloader screen (mostly want to know ship soff or eng soff) can you name your recovery? Can you name the roms you have tried?

Glad U're helping me sir. This problem is there from the day I rooted and installed my first rom cyanogen mod 7 Actually mine is ship s- off, I used the wiki.cyanogen g2rooting guide and another one for getting sd card golden. First I used clockwork mod recovery now I'm using the latest in 4ext recovery. Now I'm currently using andromadus mimicry 1.5.0 its working perfectly with many softwares until I restart if I do 'hot reboot' no problem occurs
These are the list of roms I tried and problem starts wen I restart or switch off my mobile and then switch on:
1.andromadus audacity beta5
2.cyanogen mod rc9.0
3.Android_SpeedDaemon_Fantasia_v1.0.0_vision
4. G2slim1.6
5. MikRunny-v1.0-DeOdex-signed
6. RCMix.Energized.7.26.2012.Fixed.Kernel_Ver2
7. Strawmetal-1.Mi.V2.0
8. sensewich1
And many others too
Plz help!

Well you are best to get true s-off with an engineering spl. I assume you either missed a step in the guide you followed or you went with the official htc unlocked bootloader. Either way you can fix this, and I suggest you do
Pretty much you need to relock the bootloader, then downgrade, reroot and flash the eng hboot along with everything else.
The best guides to follow to root and soff are
Cyanogen wiki
Xda wiki
Strawmetals pdf guide.
You can google search these easy or if I get a minute then ill link you. But first you need to relock your bootloader
I believe it is something like
Fastboot oem lock bootloader
I can't recall of hand but nipqer has a guide on this
If I get some time ill get you links, but for now just search a bit and read up, good luck!

Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium
Just boot into fastboot mode
Type fastboot devices, if you see yours then proceed
fastboot oem lock
Now do
fastboot reboot-bootloader
This should bring you back to hboot, if it says ship s-on then your good and you can proceed to root and gain true s-off
If you continue to have trouble log onto freenode irc #g2root, just google it if you can't find it, there is a link in the xda wiki for rooting the vision

Use theq86's bootloader tool. Search it, its an old thread.
Download the zip, flash in recovery and it will open up an installer. Touch on lock bootloader guarantee node and let it do its thing. Once that's done, reboot.
Hope I helped.

Sorry dude,
It's highly impossible to get locked after unlocking your device...
If you wanna root your mobile without unlocking,better use Simon's utility...
