Why do you need to unlock the bootloader?
With S-Off you can flash everything.

No also with an S-off device you have to unlock the bootloader to flash different recoverys, boot.img files and roms......

With the others HTC phones that i have, with s-off you can flash the boot, recovery, radio, system... with fastboot.

Installing a custom rom is for a s-on and s-off device exactly the same !

Why you are asking for S-OFF guide if you are already S-OFFed ??
S-OFF for One X is not available yet so there isn't any guide for it. And if you have an S-OFF device, you probably are among those lucky people who've got a factory S-OFF phone.

You must unlock your bootloader if you want to flash a custom ROM.

That means including of unlocking the bootloader
The Installation for s-on and s-off is the same?
I thought S-OFF don't need to flash the boot.img
So S-OFF devices only need an unlock, custom recovery.
They only need to flash the ROM but S-ON need to flash boot.img separate .
Isn't it right?
Thanks for your help

Its exactly the same as hofs said. Most Rom zips don't attempt to flash the boot.img in the installer script even though it would work with an s off phone.
Best off flashing the boot.img with fastboot if you don't know.
Restoring a nandroid will flash a boot though which is handy.
I put this together sometime ago which may be usefull to you.

Just lock up in HBOOT if your device is already unlocked...
If not then unlock your bootloader.
Hi all,
Was just wondering;
I have a Rogers HTC M8 and want to install a custom ROM
Do I need to unlock bootloader via HTC, or is there another way now that we have S-OFF ?
And if there is, please do share
Thanks in advance, much appreciated

Thanks so much
But it says I need to be S-OFF in order to proceed, and to get S-OFF I need root.
So how can I root in order to do it ? Would weak sauce work ?
Sorry, newB here when it comes to this
Go to firewater S-off website, the second method could let you s-off without unlock boatload and flash custom recovery as well as custom Rom.

Hi and thanks for the reply,
I tried the second method but the weaksauce wont work on my Rogers device, I get an error...
I am guessing the only other option is to use HTCdev ??

I think that's okay to do HTCdev unlock bootloader first then flash custom recovey and get root.
Then, flash custom rom.
Don't worry dude.

No problem, Tampered flag means that you tried to unlock the bootloader.
After you unlock bootloader you need to flash a custom recovery to be able to root.
Are you following a guide?

Sunshine S-Off will be your best bet. It's $25 though.

This may not work if the BIN file has already been used.

You'll have to go through the process again on HTCDev to re-unlock your bootloader. You will get a new unlock code BIN file to use.

Not sure, but that's exactly what happened to me. I re-locked the bootloader before installing a custom recovery, and my old unlock_code.bin file would not unlock the bootloader again. I'd get some error in the terminal window when I tried to do that. Then I decided to try the whole unlock procedure again on HTCDev, and I got a new unlock_code.bin file, which successfully unlocked the bootloader.
thanks for replying
i installed sunshine, and made my bootloader unlocked and changed S-ON to S-off
this is magic
