MY 3d says RELOCKED with s-OFF and HBOOT 1.50 Radio 0.97.10.0000.
How can i downgrade?
DO NOT use the method in my thread for the downgrade, bricking your phone with S-OFF will be permanent.
The good news is, you're already S-OFF, which means You can flash any PG86IMG.zip file. So if you want the HBOOT to be unlocked, you can flash the ENG hboot. If you want revolutionary hboot you can flash the 1.13 RUU and/or the 1.40 hboot and then do revolutionary.
See the thread below for the ENG Hboot and/or the 1.40 hboot. Rename it to PG86IMG.zip instead of whatever it is and flash from bootloader.

Okay, so i was previously on HBOOT 1.50 with an htc unlock, however thanks to XDA Member Unknownforce i am now back to HBOOT 1.40 with Revolutionary S-Off, if i ran the latest RUU 2.17.651.5 or PG86IMG file with hboot 1.50.nbo will i then be on 1.5 with s-off or ...
Dont do the official update I am on RUU 2.17.651.5 with Hboot 1.4 S-off after doing the upgrade.
There is a thread on here that has the updates you need to keep you off of hboot 1.5
freeza's all in one firmware update
Has anyone achieved this? I think I just did accidentally.
Right now I'm in a custom recovery (teamwin) with 1.50 Hboot S-OFF.
Well, you can still get full root with Hboot 1.50 even through HTCDev method.
What you can't get is S-Off. You can still be on HBOOT 1.50 with S-Off if you updated to HBOOT 1.50 from 1.40 while you were S-Off.
Even then, there's still a downgrade for HBOOT 1.50 users.
What you probably did was updated from hboot 1.30 or 1.40 with s-off to 1.50 and kept the S-Off like you should have.

You either had s-off to begin with, oryou had s-off to begin with. You're good to go, no need to downgrade the bootloader unless you want eng hboot. 1.5 means nothing, s-on is the problem. But you're s-off.
Hi Everyone. Now I'm on stock hboot 1.53.0007 S-ON and I'd like to do S-OFF. I understand that i should unlock via HTC Dev, then root and after that S-OFF. But my question is how does the bootloader looks after S-OFF via JuopunutBear? Does it make LOCKED and S-OFF? If not what should I do (if it's possible) to go back for a locked bootloader (not relocked)? And if JuopunutBear makes bootloader LOCKED i should be able to flash RUU, than use fastboot oem writesecure flag 3 to make S-ON and that's all? Cheers

You are most correct sir. After you perform the wire trick the end result is a "locked" bootloader with s-off. With s-off you can flash any version of your carrier and regions ruu. Definetely right after you flash ruu you would fastboot and use that command to get back on s-on. I hope I answered your questions. Please don't hesitate to ask if you need more help. Peace.
Please hit the thank you button if I helped you in anyway.
One more thing. When it comes to the end of S-OFF via JuopunutBear there is a question: Do you want to install juopunutbear modified hboot? What will happen when I'm going to choose No? I will be on stock locked hboot with S-OFF? What pros are with Juopunutbear modified hboot? And I understand that if I want to get rid of Juopunutbear hboot I must flash RUU? Cheers
With s-off you can flash any hboot you desire by renaming the file PG86IMG.zip, place it on root of sd, reboot bootloader.
Jbear hboots accept more adb commands than stock.
sudo passwd root
I have Juopunutbear's S-OFF Hboot 1.50 and want to upgrade to Hboot 1.58 via official ICS OTA update. Do I need to relock my phone via Juopunutbear or can just update to 1.58 via OTA update and then use Juopunutbear to unlock Hboot 1.58?

You don't need to relock to use the RUU or do the wire trick again afterwards since you will stay S-OFF after updating to ICS.
This post contains my recommendation for someone else in a similar situation, although he had the 1.4 bootloader installed. The same process should work for you using the download in the OP of that thread.
The reason to flash the JuopunutBear Sprint ICS (1.58.5858) bootloader is to allow you to run the fasboot commands like flash, erase and boot. If you don't care about that, just stay with the 1.58 bootloader that the RUU.exe installs.

Hi!
I want to try out the CM10.1 on my phone, but the recommended HBOOT is 1.49.1107.
I understand, that I can get this hboot after Revolutionary S-OFF, but I'm already s-off with 1.49007 hboot.
Is there any other way, to get that hboot?

Flash that rom, it should work on your hboot. And you answered your own question that you can get that hboot after s-off so download and flash it from bootloader.
EDIT : I see you edited it yourself.
