S-on or S-off? If you want to return to stock, and you're s-off follow reventechs guide to downgrading the returning to stock.

Today I just picked up a rezound, got the bootloader unlocked via HTCdev and now I want to flash a rom. I'm confused though everything I've flashed hasn't booted.
Some people are saying with HTCdev unlocked bootloader, you can't s-off..?
IDK I'm confused I just want to flash something ICS. I'm stuck so far.. any help is surely appreciated
EDIT I did get that AMON RA recovery installed too. Still S-on too.
You can S-OFF with the HTCDev, it's a requirement, I would read the thread about it very carefully.

CleanROM developer edition is the best to me.
I second CleanROM Developer Edition 1.4. There is also a really nice [THEME] that removes 95% of the sense green left over in the rom and adds a much more aosp feel (by zhp pilot): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1654918

I've been pretty happy with CleanRom professional edition. Just follow the instructions for installing with GB firmware and S-On, you don't need to bother with S-Off or ICS firmware yet if you want to get up and running ASAP.

The wire trick is part of what you have to do in order to get S-OFF, yes.
As for roms, I'd recommend RezRom 3.4.
I finally S-Off'd the other day after a month or so of research so I wouldn't jack anything up (came from droid X).
I have only tried CleanRom DE and Standard and really liked them, but it killed my stock battery in just a few hours. Right now I am stock/rooted ICS 3.14.
So my ReZound is getting way too hot and there are so many different threads with different opinions.
I just want a straight and bold answer...
Verizon care or not if the phone says Re-Locked?
Will I get in trouble or what?
Why take the chance ? Run the release update , then relock and no way in hell would they know . I returned four phones already and not once have they said any thing

I'm S-Off too. So just run the latest gb ota. Then s-on and relock.
In that particular order or...?
do Not not not not lock with jumper hboot. Run the ruu twice , the official gb one , that will restore your hboot , then relock , easy process will save you potential headaches
ask not what your developer can do for you, ask what you can do for your developer.
Yea all you gotta do is RUU back to GB then your fine you don't need to relock because the RUU does that. You can also leave it S-OFF because some are like that anyways I left the one I sent back S-OFF.
Also you only need to run the RUU once as long as when it's done all the items say "ok" next to them.

so far all of the hboots and ruu are exploited so yes, even with the lates ics leak ( not sure about .13 though , but mine was on the .10 leak ). so s-off , ruu to gb then s-on , I CAN NOT EMPHASIZE HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO ONLY S-ON AFTER YOU PUT BACK THE STOCK H-NOOT

it does accept commands, just not all of them, this one does accept the write secure, try it, it never failed me.
If I'm S-On and on the latest ICS RUU, I can't RUU to gingerbread without S-Off, right? Is the safest thing to do to just install a stock gingerbread rom with some sort of patch?
Edited to add: I'm also on the 2.25 Hboot, which I can't S-Off from, right?
As long as your just returning it to Verizon just flash a stock rom or ruu and they won't notice/care. If you ever had to warranty it with htc though I would lock it down and return the whole phone to normal.
Man, this is good news. I have a hardware issue but I thought that being unlocked meant I'm screwed. I'll run the GB RUU to clear any evidence of being unlocked and request my warranty replacement.
Im running cleanrom developers edition on my rezound at the moment and would like to s-off.
In the instructions on the unlimited.io website it says I should be on stock rom. How/where do i get the stock rom at? is it a RUU? Would I have to relock,flash ruu, unlock, flash recovery, root again to s-off?
Or am i over thinking this and just need to flash a certain rom in recovery and s-off from there instead of going the whole ruu route?
I really appreciate your help. i tried searching and couldnt find what i was looking for.
I think it works from a stock rooted gb Rom, but im not 100% sure. I unrooted and ruu'ed anyway; I'm doing s-off too soon. I was s-on and on old 2.11 hboot, but I just unlocked with "fastboot OEM lock" then ran the full gb ruu.

Lock, run the latest ICS RUU, unlock,flash recovery, then s-off...and you're all up to date!
Okay so i guess i am just going to go the RUU route and get it all done now at once. Thanks for the advice. Now I just need to research how to do all that lol. Any links would be appreciated.

I TRADE YA PHONES! I need hboot 1.12. T_T
I am using a T-mobile HTC One. It was previously rooted. I restored to stock by using the RUU from HTC. I unlocked the bootloader so I currently have unlocked S-on. My HBOOT Ver is: 1.44.0000. Radio Version is 4A.17.3250.20. Am I screwed or can I still get S-OFF? I have tried Revone but it's not working. Any Ideas?

Sorry dude, pretty much screwed until they find a work around for the .11 update. I made the mistake of accidentally S-On and forgetting to lock instead of relocking my bootloader (wanted to return for warranty purposes). After that I've tried pretty much everything from downgrading to the stock ROM using customs ROMS trying to edit RUU's to work with my phone (Do not try this, easiest way to brick your very expensive phone) Nothing works as of now, Htc and t-mobile screwed us by not giving us the Stock RUU they knew what they were doing. But yes you have to wait.
*NOTE* On the otherhand i did learn that i didn't need to lock my bootloader to return it for warranty purposes the guy at the t-mobile store replaced it right there for me no questions asked. But the replacement i got came with the updated .11 ROM which means no S-Off for me still.
Damn. That's what I was afraid of. I just kept reading that as long as you had 1.44 h-boot it was still possible, but that doesn't appear to be the case. Well thanks anyway for responding.
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Premium HD app
Wait I thought you could s-off with that hboot i thought 5xxx was unable to s-off
You can s-off hboot 1.44 as long as you haven't taken the latest tmobile ota or used the tmobile ruu, they patched whatever it was that allowed us to s-off in the latest version

I have tried this and was unsuccessful. Luckily I was able to run the RUU and it was fine again but it won't achieve S-OFF
You can downgrade from .11 to .8 using a custom ruu. Google " downgrade from .11 to .8 rootzwiki" and you'll find it.

Ok guys not to sound stupid but I've rooted plenty of phones and have had pretty much every top tier phone. I've rooted all my android phones. I just don't understand the s-off portion of it all. I have s-off and currently rooted. What advantage do I have over someone that doesn't have s-off? I got my one already rooted so I never went through the process. I guess that's why I'm confused. I'm used to Samsung phones.
When the update comes next week should i just wait for a rooted version of it? I'm assuming so.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk
S-OFF basically allows you to do 2 main things you couldn't otherwise pertaining to Roms and such:
1- flash unsigned RUUs. You can flash custom firmware that don't belong to your device. IE: you can flash the newest 4.3 firmware prior to 4.3 releasing for the T-Mobile One.
2: get yourself out of a jam. Here's a great example. Let's say you flashed the stock GPE recovery and ROM. Your S-ON. You wanted the full GPE experience. Your phone took the newest update. It will flash 1.54 Hboot and update the boot loader to the black GPE version although you are S-ON and not running the GPE device. Without S-ON your SOL if you needed to go back to stock for whatever reason because the HBoot can't be rolled back on S-ON.
Its a good protection to have in your back pocket IMO

So that would explain how I am able to flash Roms from the international version. Well I guess I better be careful with any RUUs that are to come. I need to figure out how I'm going to update when the tmobile One's 4.3 update comes this week.

So once S-OFF is achieved, can flashing any RUU set it back to S-ON? If so, how can that be avoided?
I have a tmobile phone flashed with launch WWE firmware; don't care about WiFi calling or any carrier bloat, but did want the 1700 HSPA+. I'm thinking of clean flashing to latest Tmobile RUU to get the supposed LTE reception improvements, then going from there to back to launch WWE and to latest WWE (to try to retain settings).

No you would have to purposely set it back to s-on, an RUU won't do it. Would you be doing the tmobile Thu then installing WWE Rom ? Or flashing WWE RUU? Cause the ruu would just reset everything XP
