Bootloader - HTC Rezound

so, i just flashed the ics ruu, and now my hboot says tampered. should i worry, how do i fix it if it is an issue

I'm assuming your unlocked, even if you relock it will say relocked, tampered cones from having a custom recovery and ics. I have a stealth hboot it requires s-off but will make it look stock for warranty issues.

Not really... It has been posted about multiple times. It happens and is perfectly ok.

It is because you have a custom recovery

Gotcha. Sorry if its common question. Just got phone last week and didn't want to go crawling through old posts. Do you have link for that fancy ghost hboot

You got off easy. Sometimes it can get a little nasty in here when you ask an already answered question.
Everyone must still be happy about S-Off or the new leak or something.

Hey con, now that we are getting s off, has anyone pulled the radios from the different updates? Think the latest radios are causing a lot of my increased temps on the phone.

No this in not the S-off method. This is just something you are able to use once you gain s-off. Check the general section for the s-off method.

What exactly are these? what do they do? edit:nevermind, i figured it out
Is this to replace the HTC image?
You can drop a boot image into it and it will flash it via recovery. It is more of a template/reference for rom/kernel devs now that we have S-OFF. However, it can work for the end user if you put your boot image inside it.
Hey Con,
I'm running stock GB. What command would I use to make a copy of my boot.img in case I Bork my s-off attempt?
Thanks in advance.
Edit...Never mind I got a copy from scottsroms.com
I used to be a developer like you. Then I took an arrow in the knee...

[Q] Is there any easier way to get s-off then the JuopunutBear method?

Im thinking of buying an htc amaze, but i ain't gonna do that if to gain full root access i have to do that whole 'wire trick.
but if there is any easier way i will go for it...
thanks,

Let me clarify you want s-off if you want kernels to flash at the same time you flash a Rom, also, having s-off will allow you to change the splash screen (HTC white screen)

Dude it is really not that frikkin bad. Seriously. I ran the tool one time and it took me maybe 4 tries. It coaches you through it. If you are this scared then why even root or do anything to a phone?

Option 1) Just unlock the bootloader HTC style.
Option 2) Get S-OFF yourself, it wasnt that hard, I got it first try.
Option 3) Mail me your phone and $20, ill send it back S-OFF with 4EXT recovery.

2 things I need to correct you right there. The name's Keylogger. Keylogger_0.
On a more serious note, my toolkit is FOR s-off users. It does not help one achieve s-off.
And to answer OP's question, currently, the only way to s-off the amaze is through the JuopunutBear method. From what I've heard, the J-Bear method may be tricky, but as long as you follow directions, it is pretty straightforward. Took me many tries, but as long as you use the correct insulated wire, and follow instructions, it isn't too difficult. You just need time and patience.

S-ON Tampered

I am running an ICS Build with S/ON. BootLoader says S/ON Tampered. Is there a way to return the phone back to the factory default? I think if I ran the S-OFF process, I could do it, but is there a way to go back to square one from where I am?
It will always say tampered no matter what you do now

The tampered just means you have a custom recovery. He could re-lock and RUU and it would go away. It will, however, always say "unlocked" if you stay s-on.

Actually it won't. It says tampered due installing a custom recovery. If you RUU the stock recovery back then it looses "tampered". You can then relock your bootloader, but it will then display "relocked" in the hboot menu.
Edit: Didn't read that last post before posting. My bad.
I sincerely apologize for posting in the incorrect area. Thanks for your response(s). There are tons of posts about the subject but I couldn't find anything regarding my specific concern. I'll be more mindful of the rules going forward.
Thanks

The whole faking the S-State is quite easy to do actually. A tool came out not too long ago from which you can edit your H-Boot. It was on the XDA portal a little while ago. I'm on my phone but ill edit this when I find the post.

you are correct. all vzw is going to do is see if they can boot it. if not they will plug it into a machine and then go into download mode where they will flash a copy of everything back onto the device. but if they cant get into download mode they will just use it for parts.
i couldnt get it into download mode, nor did linux see the phone.

So I originally unlocked on GB firmware. I'm going to go flash to the .12 ICS RUU and want to unlock it again. Can I use the same Unlock_code.bin from when i unlocked before? Or will I have to get a new one?
Possibly. They eventually expire but it won't hurt to try. Worst that can happen is it doesn't work and you have to get a new one.
