So I have question regarding HBoot 1.50.0000:
The HTC unlock method allows for a partially unlocked bootloader, allowing us to load custom ROM's. Is it possible to use the HTC method, then flash a previous Hboot like 1.30 or 1.40? I haven't seen anywhere where this has been tried, so I figured I would ask it.

As far as I understand as long as you still have S-on it will not allow you to downgrade the bootloader. I've also searched this theory.

I have 1.50 and S-off. I asked in another thread but never got a response. Can I downgrade since I am S-off? I used Revolutionary and then mistakenly flashed the wrong file to update radios etc. Put me on hboot 1.50 but I remained S-off.

the difference between eng hboot and ship hboot? I need to unroot and s-on but i dont know if i have the eng hboot
It's a good idea to just use the latest RUU before unrooting, that way you know for sure everything is how it needs to be.

The easiest way I can think of would be to compare the version numbers it shows at the top of the bootloader screen.
The second way which comes to mind would be to examine the type of information it dumps from certain commands. This is probably a less than ideal approach.

I currently have the eng h-boot I ran revolutionary many months ago and then flash the eng h-boot. My question is this can I flash back to the revolutionary h-boot without running revolutionary and will I lose s-off? I tried searching but I'm on the xda app and could not find what I was looking for. Thank you in advance for any help

I don't know about getting back to the revolutionary hboot, but you can get back to the hboot that's almost the exact same as revolutionary, hboot1.4, by flashing a pg86img.zip through your bootloader. If you haven't had any issues with the ENG bootloader, there's no reason to need to change it though. It's up to you.
here's a link to both the hboot1.4 and eng hboot (just choose the one you want to download, both of them are in first post) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192306
This question is an offspring of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601431
It seems that I have a Hboot version 1.11.0011 and 'revolutionary' does not cover this version regarding S-OFF. Is there another way to get a S-OFF onto this Hboot version? (And, why all these versions? - bonus question)
I also wonder this.
Same here
I had the same;
i got it unlocked via HTC unlocker - well not me guy who helped me. He tould e other metod is posible as well but more complicated.
So is it posible - yes.
Yes that I know but if I not mistakeing and you unlock it trough HTCdev you are loosing your warranty.

Instaling ANY non HTC rom does that so no diference there.
Yes okay but when you don't use HTCdev then they don't know and you can easily putting stockrom back

There is a posibility to downgrade to gingerbread without using the the HTCdev.
After this you could S-OFF with revolutionary.

Did anyone tried this and where did you get the RUU. I Unlocked my Flyer via HTC Dev and reading day and night how to get to the next step and S-OFF. This thread ended for some in a bricked device.
In this tread you can find the RUU
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1062184
But for example I need the RUU_Flyer_HTC_WWE_Wifi_2.27.1114.31_Radio_20.3504.30.089BU_3809.07
And you can't download it
Had the same 1.11.0011 problem, took me a while to finally find the right method.

Well even if you did root without htcdev unlock, it still voids your warranty regardless

IT IS NOT THE SAME!believe me!if you don't unlock via htcdec(with other method) you can revert back to locked s-on.if you unlock with htcdev you can only go to relocked s-on so they know you messed with your phone.unfortunately,for hboot 1.5 there is no other method.only for 1.4

Just downgrade your hboot using cd method, use 1.40+revolutionary, use powduh/commonsens/meanrom and custom kernel and you will find your phone flying high... And at last you still can get back to haboot 1.50 locked

I don't know if the same is true for the GSM model, but doing the JuopunutBear (wire trick) method for S-OFF left the two CDMA Evo 3D's that I have with a ***LOCKED*** bootloader even though it was ***UNLOCKED*** previously, and those were both on hboot 1.5. The bootloaders are still ***LOCKED*** and I use custom hboots to be able to use the fastboot commands that a locked stock bootloader doesn't allow.

I don't recommend that. You should S-OFF before upgrading (unless you're extremely satisfied with being S-ON). Just run the RUU with the deivce in HBOOT (to escape your current predicament).
I have hboot 1.19 is that avle to be s-off i havent looked in a bit. And im on radio 1.12 when i try to run ruu since in running 3.15 jb build it wont let me ruu

You use rusty racun to get s-off, google it and you'll find it, but first run the PJ75IMG to get back to stock, then unlock the bootloader again and run rusty racun
