Im trying to flash the infected rom on my brothers evo3d for him but his hboot is 1.5. Is there a way to turn s-off and flash a rom or is that not possible yet?
It's possible, you just have to use HTC unlock first then flash a custom recovery (TWRP) after that, flash away,,there are guides further down on this forumn that will tell exactly how to do it...btw this is the developer thread, u must pm a mod to transfer this to the Q&A thread, otherwise idiots will harass u. Good luck

If you are s-off, you can just push recovery into phone. Then you are done.

I'm looking at returning my phone to exchange it for a different one. I have already rooted and unlocked the phone. I saw mentioned that using the S-Off method, it was possible to put the phone back in a unmodded state. Is there any directions on how to do that? Did see anything looking through the forum.

Shouldn't this be in Q&A, not Development?

Guess that depends on how you see the categories defined. Since this is concerning low level work on the device and other topics about s-off are present in here, this appeared to be the place to ask, as it has been with other forums for the other devices I have used on here.

The Android development section is only for devs to post Roms and mods specific to their device, and for users to comment and thank those devs. Q&A is for all questions, whether or not they have to do with "low level work"

I would define this as a post that doesn't belong in Development. OP...please post in the correct sections. Questions are for the Q&A section.

Sorry no one answered your question and just posted about where you posted but here you go.
Download this filehttp://www.filefactory.com/f/b6eb73c80cc97030/ and make sure you have adb debugging on and start the file. I am not sure if it relocks the device bootloader though. Do not unplug it until it is done. Here is a decent looking video walk through of it. WATCH IT FIRST at least http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wYVB9mq8Ws
You have to relock the bootloader, then run the ruu. Did you unlock via HTCdev or LazyPanda? If you did it via HTCdev your bootloader will say RELOCKED but everything else will be stock....

I used HTCdev but if I relock and then use LazyPanda would that remove the RELOCKED when restoring?

I'm not sure but as of now the LazyPanda project has been suspended until they work out all the kinks. You could try when they get it back up and running but either way if your trying to get it back to stock to return it, relocking the bootloader and running the stock ruu should be enough.

I am trying to do the same thing (relock and go back to stock) so I can exchange the phone. I am on flex360's Stock plus Goodies v1.5 and when I relocked the bootloader, the phone got stuck on the bootloader screen (showed relocked) and wouldn't reboot. I had to unlock via adb to get the phone to reboot. Any idea why it got stuck on bootloader after the relock? Do you think I need to be on a stock rom to relock, and if so, how can I flash the stock rom? Like a bonehead, in my excitement to get a custom rom installed I forgot to create a backup.
I just came over from the G2 and I love this amaze!!!! The devs over there were brilliant, but these look just as good! I'm a real noob, so what is the best way to root this? Rooting is the only thing that really scared the crap out of me and confuses me, I'm not at all computer savvy! Also, seems some roms say it doesn't need root? Thanks in advance guys!!!

Unlock bootloader
Flash custom recovery (4ext touch is recommended)
Flash superuser for stock rooted or flash rooted custom Rom.
Check dev stickies and read the bible.
Questions still go in Q&A

I have a rooted photon 4g sprint edition running 2.3.4 and i want to know if there are any custom roms that keep 4g. I have not unlocked the bootloader or made any other changes to the phone yet. I have unlocked and rooted a few phoes in the past and had no problems but i have not found a good answer to this problem anywhere. I'm sorry if this is a repetative question but there are too many maybe answers out there. So basically 4g with custom rom yes or no? Please help
There's a thread in Dev section were you use pudding to unlock then relock to regain 4G.
