May I know if One X is able to be S-OFF, is it mean that even the bootloader status is locked and we still can root and flash custom rom? How it different with unlock bootloader using HTCDev? sry for noob question..
No you need to be unlocked to root and flash custom roms. As of now HTCDev is the only method to allow unlocking.
Simple method. We don't know when Revolutionary will release their tool.
S-ON + LOCKED = You can only use official HTC firmware and only for the specific branded version you have.
S-ON + UNLOCKED = You unlocked it via htcdev. You're able to change the system and recovery images to allow for custom firmware. You can't alter anything regarding the baseband aka cell radio. HTC know you unlock via htcdev as they make you enter your serial number and other details to generate a phone specific unlock token. This will affect your warranty as any software caused faults are your own problem. General hardware warranty is still the same.
S-ON + RELOCKED = You relocked it after unlocking via htcdev. Same as S-ON + LOCKED except it shows you relocked.
S-OFF = No restrictions at all by the bootloader. You can alter everything. HTC don't let you do this and you need somebody else to work out a flaw in the bootloader to do it. Technically this voids your warranty as well but if you relock and don't leave any evidence that you did so then HTC won't know.

No one knows about S-off.
It doesn't mean we can root and flash custom roms even on the locked bootloader. It was a different and unofficial way of unlocking the bootloader which can be locked again when we need.
We can do the same thing even in this HTC dev method, I mean locking the bootloader, but after that the status of the bootloader will be RELOCKED not locked. That means HTC people may know that our device is already unlocked before.
One more thing (which I heard and I am not sure), we can't flash ported roms on our device unless and until we have S-off.

So followed it word for word and its perfectly fine apart from wont boot in to recovery which doesnt bother me aslong as it looks normal. Also used fastboot oem writesecureflag 3 to get s-on now i can send back after i argue with them about the bootloader unlock on htcdev
Hello all. I'm using a verizon m8 on tmobile (the model i have is CDMA and GSM) I tried to change the modelid to flash new firmware, but I must have done something wrong and now my model ID says "modelid: tpms:tpms:-:ukonoto".
Also, my bootloader now says "relocked" and I cannot access recovery, only fastboot. I have s-off and am rooted
So, I am curious what commands or steps I need to take to fix my model ID, and how can I get my bootloader back to locked as opposed to it saying "relocked" And lastly, what can I do about not having access to my recovery?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
used sunshine support and jcase helped me out
I purchased used M8 which is locked to vodafone and is rooted with unlocked bootlaoder S-ON running GPE ROM. I requested unlock code but it dont accept it as keep saying incorrect password even i tried three times. when i contacted the seller who sent me this unlock code he said phone should be in its original factory state in order for this factory unlock code to work.. Is he right? if yes then is it easy to get back in original setting i.e to unroot or relock bootloader ..
any help would be appreciated
Hi friends !
I have a stock rom problem for a while. my sister has a Htc Desire 816w dual and somehow her devise came unlocked.
we can not give the device back beause she is using it more than a year. but it started slowing down again.
i have been searching a stock ruu and i wanna relock bootloader but i can not find it.
i have tried just relock the bootloader but when i do this the devices isnt turn on. when you press the power button it goes immediatly into bootloader menu. i did those, just relock bootloader, relock bootloader than factory reset, a lot of stoch roms all of them are didnt help.
cid : HTCCN703
mid : 0P9C70000
i need a stock rom rar and relock the bootloader and install the stock rom from sdcard.
