If you are S-OFF and the bootloader says LOCKED, you aren't really locked.
S-OFF, is S-OFF.
I'm assuming you used the wire trick?
If so, then it's normal for it to say locked.

man s-off is way more important than an unlocked bootloader s-off lets you overwrite over data , system and boot partition , u can flash any custom rom but just making a full wipe and flash the zip file no bootloops no need to downgrade ur hboot and no to unlock the bootloader , once u achieve s-off u can do whatever u want

This is the 1.400 hboot. Actually I flash this thru the bootloader and I flash ROMs like Cool ICS, Mean ROM. If you flash the new hboot you can flash this (via bootloader) and test it out

They're some roms now that you can flash with a older hboot.
-Recommend: flash only if you wanna go back

All the bootloaders are available in this post. This 1.4 bootloader will let you flash GB ROM's and ICS ROM's with the VM leak kernel, but not with the kernel from the 2.89 Sprint ICS build.

ok my phone is s-on on hboot 1.90.0008 and it has an unlocked bootloader with 4ext recovery.
i tryed going back to stock with ruu (videotron) but it fails
i tryed changing roms and its just stuck on a bootloop. so far i tryed 3 different roms with no luck
i dont know what to do
any help will be appreciated
thx
Make sure your RUU is properly named and put it on the root of your SD card.
Lock your bootloader by adb command "OEM LOCK" From your pc's command prompt. This will lock your bootloader (and will erase everything)
When you reboot to your bootloader, it will scan for your ph85img.zip (I think I remember thats what its called... its been a while) and it will flash the update.
Hope this helps... if not... I recommend http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679486 this thread. Goodnight

Incorrect info by GS3G. Since you are S-On, you can't downgrade to the Gingerbread RUU. You need to have S-Off so you can downgrade to the GB RUU

Have you ever successfully ran an ICS ROM on the phone before? What ROM were you on BEFORE this happened?
Yea i had ics rom from the guy i bought it from and it worked. the 4ext recovery was also installed but idk what rom it was. i asked him like 2 hours ago ill see what he response back and tell you but if it was running a custom rom with ics i cant see why it wouldnt run another...
All i did when it was working was wipe data and dalvik then installed energy rom 8.1 then flashed the boot.img with pc
Did i do something wrong?

I'm currently on Viper Amaze 1.7.0.2 and I'd like to know how to revert back to stock ICS. My phone is on tmobile, s-on, unlocked bootloader, hboot 1.93.0002 and 4ext recovery.

Thank you.

I dunno why all of you get this.. Its cuz your boot.img didn't flash.. Do like this flash the Rom and reboot into the recovery again then a small pop up will come saying turn on smart flash bla bla say yes and give it 10 sec and reboot your phone.. I kinda remember something like that
