The title probably says it all but I'm curious if it's even possible to change the *LOCKED* to *UNLOCKED* after getting S-OFF and flashing the ENG H-Boot?
When I tried to use HTC-Dev, it gave me an error message.
Thoughts?
It is possible. Maybe you didn't see my reply to you in the other post.
The process is the exact same as the one with S-On bootloader. Make sure your identification code is correct and you include the header and the ending

I got it. Thanks for the tip man. Guess I had messed something up the first time I tried and it told me the unlock token was bad.
Think I copied the "INFO" parts too. This time it went through smoothly.
I'm now officially ENG S-OFF, HTC Unlocked, and SUPERCID.
Bring it on XDA. I'm ready.

Just wanted the word "UNLOCKED" instead of "LOCKED".
I know it makes no difference since I have ENG hboot but I wanted it anyway.
Looks better on the bootloader screen

I re-unlocked the bootloader with the original "root" instructions wich worked well... Kinda weird, I read it wasn't supposed to work... When I'm in hboot, it scans the sdcard for ph85img.zip but it doesn't see it...???
try deleting the "zip" and just rename it PH85IMG

You can brick your device!
Forgive my ignorance, but if you are s-off, why would you want to do this? I thought 1.5 s-off was just as good as1.4 s-off.
Sent from my PG86100
When set at 1.5 you cant change the splash screen or radio. or other settings.
Also Bricking it is what I need to do to convert it to 1.4 BUT I cant to that until I have S-ON. Correct?
You are s-off so no need to brick, just download this copy it to sd card and flash via bootloader.
Also I could be mistaken, but I believe hboot 1.5 is perfectly ok as long as you are S-off, I am pretty sure you can flash whatever you want.
BTW the download link is taken from OP in this thread, you might want to read through it.

^Exactly this. If you read the first post of that thread (especially the gigantic red letters and what is under that), it will tell you to NOT brick an S-off phone as it will permanently brick it. You just need to flash the 1.4 bootloader.

i had the same problem as OP. i think the issue with 1.5 is even though its s-off, the bootloader is still locked and therefore a recovery cant be flashed and root cant be gained.
Ive been looking for the standalone hboot 1.4 ruu so i didnt have to do what op originally suggested

Ya I didn't even think about revolutionary only working with 1.4 or below that must be the problem. You are welcome for the help, I just figured most of this out about a week ago when I had to do the downgrade after unlocking with htc method.
I would fastboot oem lock then do HTC's unlock again.

If you are S-OFF you can flash any bootloader you want...no need to go back to S-on....I found a few bootloader versions on here and flashed them back and forth when trying different roms.....once your S-OFF you should never return...lol
I was thinking of taking it to Sprint for a replacement cuz of 4G not working, but then I thought, WHEN ON EARTH do I use 4G??? LOL It's always off...
These steps will get you completely back to stock.
I want to first say thanks to the unlimited.io team for making S-OFF possible.
Secondly, by following these instructions you are acknowledging that should something go wrong and you brick your device, I am not at fault nor are the developers of the S-OFF method for the HTC RUBY. Follow these instructions at your own risk! I am NOT a dev, just stupid enough to be the first one (I think) To try this. I am not going to give instructions on how to use fastboot, if you are S-Off, then you should already know.
Third, you WILL be able to re-unlock your bootloader and regain S-OFF after you have followed these instructions. If you want to do so, there are other threads on how to do that.
And 4th, I have only tried this on a tmobile branded device. I have no idea if this works on any other device. I think it should, but I don't know for sure. If anybody wants to give it a try and let me know, then i will update the OP.
Now to the steps.
1. Download the stock ruu from here
2. Lock your bootloader by using the fastboot command "fastboot oem lock"
3. Reboot to system
4. Flash the stock RUU you downloaded by placing it in the root of your external sd card and renaming it PH85IMG.zip and rebooting to bootloader.
5. Once you have the stock rom reinstalled, set the security lock by using fastboot command " fastboot oem writesecureflag 3"
6. Profit?
That's it!

I should have clarified, the steps are if you want to go completely stock, will update the OP.
Will it read "relocked" or "locked"? I thought being "completely stock" was not totally possible because it would always say "relocked".

No it wont. Sometimes when you flash ROMs after the ics leak it'll go back to locked . Only if you do it manually through fast boot it will say re-locked.

You can't downgrade back to GB once you've updated to ICS, if that's what you're trying to do. At least not very easily.

I dont know a way for going back to stock without being s=off. You could possibly flash the newest official release (ics, one that hasnt been modified) then relock your bootloader, but i think that it will show relocked rather than locked. Worth a try though.
Okay thanks for the input guys. It isn't a huge deal, I just didn't think there was enough "goodies" rom-wise for ICS, but there are some hardworking devs on here. Looking forward to the Sense 4.0 rom.

I spent 3 hrs trying to solve the relocked and locked issue until finally I got it resolved. with the manual option to lock with hasoon tool, places *** RELOCKED *** in hboot, which clearly and obvious for any technician to see you tampered with the hboot files from stock. my reason for doing this to get my warranty back.
how did i fixed "RELOCKED" to show as *** LOCKED *** ? after the hasoon tool 3.2 relocked the bootloader i was challenged, but decided the first step would be switching the security off and on (s-off/ s-on)
first return to stock RUU through boot loader, then adb command fastboot oem writesecureflag 3 to enable s-on. *toggled it on
i reinstalled juopunutbear s-off again carefully following the instructions. with a paperclip grounding the phone and selecting for juopunutbear's modified files "y" enter.
then your *** RELOCKED *** shows as *** juopunutbear *** in hboot. (at first i thought I dig myself a bigger hole)
I used Hasoon tool 3.2 again to RELOCK bootloader, with the intention of reinstall the stock RUU again. however it still showed as *** juopunutbear *** with the message its already locked.
Now I installed the the Stock RUU again from bootloader. once complete back to the hboot, to show *** LOCKED *** and s-off Progress!!!
repeat enable s-on instructions by writing adb: fastboot oem writesecureflag 3,
now shows
*** LOCKED ***

how do we delete the line -OpenADSP-02.6.0.2226.00.0202?
it was added with the juopunutbear s-off hboot files, without that file the hboot would be 100 percent legit for the warranty!

No need to get rid of that. New phone from T-Mobile with HBOOT 1.93 and it had that line it . It looks like 1.90 is the one that doesn't have that line. Because my wife's phone is on 1.90 and she doesn't have it.

How can i downgrade the 1.58 hboot if i'm already S-off?

Since you are s-off, you just need to download the hboot you want, rename it to PG86IMG.zip, and place it on the root of your sd card. Boot into bootloader and "update" to the older hboot. Remove the zip from the sd card and you'll be good to go.

All you need is the ZIP file with the Hboot version that you want. Rename that zip filename to PG86IMG.zip. Here is a quote i posted earlier.
treyweez11 said:
I am no Dev. For anyone who wants to downgrade the BootLoader i believe you can use this ZIP. Rename the file to PG86IMG.zip, Place it on the SD, boot to boot loader. When rebooting the phone, adb reboot recovery, mount sd and delete file. Only change boot loader to 1.40.Thanks.

The easiest way is to flash a PG86IMG of an older hboot through hboot.
Beware... If you're on hboot 1.58 and you switch to a lower hboot, you're phone might not boot up unless you change roms.
Which do you want, Hboot 1.4 or 1.5?

I've been s-off (1.12) since the exploit was found. Always thought you'd lose s-off or root if I updated the bootloader but after reading this thread, it sounds like I can update to 1.19 and just reinstall twrp?
Currently running Mean 3.6 with just the radio updates. Phone is running fine, any reason to update the bootloader?

I've been s-off (1.12) since the exploit was found. Always thought you'd lose s-off or root if I updated the bootloader but after reading this thread, it sounds like I can update to 1.19 and just reinstall twrp?
Currently running Mean 3.6 with just the radio updates. Phone is running fine, any reason to update the bootloader?
Appreciate your help, there's a lot of info out there that contradicts itself.

Never a problem with asking questions. The user was S-OFF, so it doesnt matter that his H-boot said locked. He can do whatever he pleases.
The poster was suggesting he use an overly complicated method (HTC dev to unlock the bootloader and either fastboot flashing the recovery or using an app to do it) when all he had to do was install the recovery via the bootloader
He probably could just have easily installed the old 1.12 bootloader.
stuck @ boot
Reflash boot image through recovery you have to mount USB to get the file on your sf card then reboot system then go back to fastboot and accept the update

Remove/replace the battery and restart the bootloader and try flashing the RUU again. If that doesn't work you can try flashing the RUU.exe from Windows with the bootloader in "fastboot USB" mode.

one thing i have learned is when flashing roms, make sure you have the correct firmware package, and hboot.. because some Roms use the VM Firmware from the leak a few months back, while others use the Sprint Firmware, also depending on the base of the rom you may need to flash a newer or older hboot

I agree about being s-off, but the ruu.exe will error out if the bootloader is unlocked. You must relock the bootloader first.

i use linux so i dont do the EXE's... i take the RUU and rename it to PG86IMG.zip and it still works unlocked or not... just different approaches depending on the OS you use i guess

That should be the same thing as long as the RUU.zip is extracted from the RUU.exe and properly signed.
But coal is right about needing the bootloader locked/relocked to flash the RUU if you are S-ON (which the OP said he is), regardless of whether you use the RUU.exe or RUU.zip.

Unlocked and S-OFF, right? That works fine but an RUU flash with S-ON and an unlocked bootloader will fail, regardless of how you do it.
If you don't believe me set your phone back to S-ON and try it.

That sure looks like S-ON to me. The reason I jumped back into this thread is that I don't want other users getting incorrect information.

I don't think so.
You really should try flashing an RUU (.exe or .zip) with radio S-ON and an unlocked bootloader before you advise other users to try that. If you can do that successfully I will admit I am wrong in this thread. Otherwise, please stop insisting that it will work.
You have been ignoring the fact that the OP is S-ON throughout this thread and that really isn't going to help him at all.

Thank you. I will make one last post just so people are clear on the requirements for flashing an RUU with S-ON.
Here's a quote from mpgrimm2's My Running stock RUU Reference info post:
Note 3: If you previously did the HTC Unlock, you'd have to "RELOCK" BEFORE running the RUU.
To do this from fastboot type: fastboot oem lock
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That guide has been around for a long time on XDA and another website and it has been used by a lot of people, including myself. If that information was wrong, I'm sure mpgrimm2 would have corrected it by now.
If you want to flash an RUU with S-ON and an unlocked bootloader, make sure that you relock it before flashing or you will get an error.
ramjet73
wloftus, I'm not saying you're lying since as you said, you were the one who did it and you say it worked for you. But, if one is s-on and unlocked, the ruu will error out with error 155. I google searched ruu lock bootloader error and found many sites that say the bootloader must be locked if s-on (see below). But, if one wants to try while leaving the bootloader unlocked, then be my guest. If it works, great; if not, then relock the bootloader.

Hey thanks for your comment, yes it says relocked but also Security Warning... do you know how can I remove this? so I can leave it locked again and try to reinstall the stock RUU?

There's a thread here that discusses, but people seem to have used various methods to solve it from restarting the bootloader to reflashing their unlock token. That's why I recommended in my first post of this thread that you remove/replace the battery and restart the bootoader.
