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.

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.
I'm on hboot 1.5 is it possible to flash a lower hboot version?

Nope. But you can use the HTC method to root. You will still need to jump through a few more hoops if you want to flash kernels, but just getting root is not too hard from what I hear.

Hey guys where can I find the updated radios with s-on?

If you're S-On you cannot flash new radios at the moment without taking the OTA or flashing the RUU.

ok thanks and is there a way to get S-Off with the latest OTA?
The only way to get s-off is to get a phone with hboot 1.12 and applying the lazy panda exploit

Yep just head on over to development and look through the guide. If you have any trouble with any of the terms or would just like to read up before jumping into the a-off guide, I wrote a pretty extensive post explaining just about everything I could think of.

Thanks man and I was just over there earlier today and I wasnt sure if I met the requirements but I just want to make sure what I am doing before I do a dangerous thing to my phone. Well I mean its not dangerous but it can damage your phone if your not careful. Cause I am still a noon at this type of stuff but when it comes flashing a Rom and mods and stuff I can do that but other then that I am still learning everyday about this stuff but sorry for the long post. Thank you for all your help today

If your s-on with hboot 1.12 you CAN flash New radios through the recovery. But only the radio. To do the rest you need to be s-off

Easy question but I'm having trouble finding the answer. What is the most up to date radio? And how might I update it?
Thanks for your help.
Mean Rom 4.4
S-On
HBoot 1.15
Radio 1.05.11.0606
The newest radio is 1.12.0809. However per instructions you must be s-off or hboot 1.12.

You're right...in order for him to update he must relock and use the most recent ruu...only thing is that will also put him on hboot 1.19...but that's the only way an s-on phone can update firmware and radio.

Does anyone have a link to where I can find the RUU for ICS 2.13.651.1? I am still running that on my LTEvo and I need to bring it back to stock (S-On and all) so Sprint will look at it. (They already told me they saw it was rooted and unlocked so they wont run the diagnosis software on it) I don't want to update it to JellyBean.

The RUU will update your Hboot version.
If you are S-off, running the RUU won't change it to S-on. There are some other tools available to change S-off back to S-on, though.
Check out the link in my sig for an explanation of the different Hboots.
