What are some things we can now do with this phone we couldn't do before? I went ahead and downloaded Rom Manager. What else can we do?

I did already read that. Was just curious what else there is to do at this point. Looking forward to some newer Roms. Hopefully this speeds up that process. Thanks for the reply.
I'm new to HTC but not new to unlocked bootloaders, but what would need to be done to remove the tampered tag? Was it suppose to go off after getting s-off, cause mine didnt or do something else have to be done. New to HTC so don't have no idea

Soff really has no impact on more/newer roms or developers coming to a phone
It makes things significantly easier to flash, allows you to flash older radios and ruu, no need to relock to update or worry about an update relocking your phone
anyone know the file name that we can use to flash us some splash screens now? i need to be up on that
Looking forward to changing that splash screen. We can include kernels with the correct modules that will get flashed with the ROM now. I don't think that was working before.

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

This will only be useful to the people who have S-OFF or who have already done the official update right? You'd probably save yourself and others some headache by mentioning that. I'm sure you're gonna put in all the details when it's ready, I'm just saying.

want to re-lock my bootloader.
But i just wanted to ask, is there anyway I could install your upcoming rom
without getting the S-OFF? is it a requirement?
i skimmed thru some of the s-off instructions and became speechless
after seeing sticking the wire on the back of the unit.....too much for me i guess lol

so what you are saying is: either way, I would have to update the ph85img with hboot

would it be impossible to flash a rom from GB to ICS without going thru the hboot process?

S-off is required because there is a new radio , and s-off is needed for that, don't worry about the wire thing, just be careful and follow the instructions and you should be fine, so far I've seen only one person that has bricked the phone

If no s=off, can they still unlock bootloader with ics ROM? I heard that was causing issues. And people were unable to get s=off since drunkenbear was designed for GB. I could always be wrong

we could install kernels before,as long as we used a PC and launched recovery from fastboot. i guess its cool we can do it from a permanent installed recovery now without a PC,but its not that big a deal to me. ive always hooked my phone to the puter when i wanted to flash a new rom.
my favorite thing is being able to flash whole leaks without fear of beeing stuck there,and the ability to bounce around between firmwares.
my second favorite thing is that my bootloader stays unlocked. i no longer have to relock to run ruus,and afterward i dont need to re-unlock or keep installing patched hboots to use a few fastboot commands. this is different than my other s-off htcdev phones where the unlocked hboot would be overwritten with a locked one during the ruu flash
*disclaimer: i have no factory warranty and dont care about my lock status being unlocked,or relocked. do not htcdev unlock after s off if you care about staying locked
thirdly,custom spalsh screens are fun
Flashing nandroid backups with a minimum of steps and not worrying about kernels when I do.

I like s-off for a few reasons. 1. With S-Off i know that future hacks and tricks will probably be easier for me to use. 2. I get a bit of satisfaction when i see s-off in my hboot
Has to be the ability to flash without the need to unlock or relock. Takes away tedious steps and makes the overall process quicker and more simple. Plus, there isn't a need to stress about down/upgrading firmware.

My favorite part is that it gave me an excuse to f with my phone.
I really need to be brought up to speed on HTC development. I'm coming from a Motorola Droid x2 and I thought development would be the same but its totally different. I don't even know what the hell s-on or s-off means. I'm going to be receiving 2 new rezounds for my wife and I and I'm going to need to get them rooted, updated to ics, and new roms flashed on them. My Droids bootloader was locked down so our devs just worked around the kernel. Anyone know of any tutorials or anything that can help me out and bring me up to speed on the lingo and what (if anything) I should not do with these phones? Also, looks like they are being shipped to me running 2.3.4 which needs to go! Thanks!

You can go back if you're S-OFF with a RUU.
For the time being, you can flash a few different ICS leaks which are close to the official OTA but that's the beauty of modding our phones, you can even stay on Gingerbread and flash ICS ROMs and run fine with a patch as well.

Sure you have installed the HTC Sync drivers, and gone through the whole HTC Dev Unlock process properly? And make sure the option for USB debugging is on in the ROMs settings, plus Fast Boot is off. Check basic cabling and whatnot first too of course. Try a clean run on another PC if all else fails.
Thanks for the help!

Supercid will likely come at the sametime s-off comes which defeats the purpose anyway. Cid partition now has the same power-on wp that the security flag partition has always had. Needless to say, the old HTC exploits are closed and we are starting from the ground up.
