i've never heard of a returned phone being rejected for any reason other than physical damage. and if you are super worried about it there is a link to hex edited hboots.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1853871 you already s-on'd so you might have to s-off again. not sure about that part though

I think you might have to s-off. Downgrade to GB or a lower ICS RUU. Lock it. s-on. then do the ICS RUU. Should be back to locked and s-off.

Other poster is correct. Have to run s-off. Rerun RUU to unroot and then write s-on flag. Will remove all tags and be box stock.

Not of after you S-OFF. When you do, the bootloader locks automatically, and says LOCKED not RELOCKED.

So I am already s-off. Can I run the latest ICS RUU, then s-on? Will that send me back to a totally looking stock phone?
Why not just flash one of the missed hboots that says locked and s-on when you're actually s-off? I had mine unlocked and s-off and then made it s-on and sent it back in to Verizon and they sent me another one, no questions asked. Don't worry about it.

Look, even my hex edited hboots wont fool a tech. They can still tell.

Might help to think of HTC Dev Unlock and JuopunutBear S-Off as the two "gatekeepers", the two tools in the Rezound's current arsenal that affect the security flag. The security flag starts off as "locked" on a stock phone.
HTC Dev Unlock will alter the security flag to show "unlocked", and running the code to lock it back will now show it as "relocked".
JuopunutBear S-Off will reset the security flag back to "locked" no matter what the flag reads, and alter the "S-On" flag to "S-Off".
So to get back to a stock "S-On/Locked" from any of these states:
"S-On/Unlocked or Relocked"
If you are S-On and have used HTC Dev Unlock, you will need to do S-Off to get the "Locked" message back. Run a RUU, then do S-On procedure.
"S-Off/Locked"
If you are S-Off but have *not* used HTC Dev Unlock after the S-Off procedure, you should just need to run a RUU and do S-on.
"S-Off/Unlocked or Relocked"
If you are S-Off and have used HTC Dev Unlock since the S-Off procedure, you must run a RUU, re-lock the bootloader if you have not done so before, and do S-On. Then, do the S-off procedure (keep the stock bootloader, do not flash a modded one) and do S-on again.

So I was s-off and unlocked. I just flashed the latest ICS RUU. Now you are saying I need to lock my bootloader and then s-on? Then s-off with the wire trick again, then s-on one more time? Will this all work with the latest RUU I have installed?
It sounds too complicated to get rid of the "RELOCKED" sign...
My phone is S-off and unlocked. How can I restore it to stock and have it show locked and not relocked?

flash an "eng" hboot (means engineering)
you should be able to find one somewhere around here... just make sure its specifically for the amaze.
Flash an eng hboot will change it to locked and not relocked? Flash hboot then lock the bootloader? My goal is to get it back to stock and have it say locked. Flash an eng hboot then the stock hboot?

I am s-off. It still said relocked.
I got i done by turning S-On then doing the wire trick to get S-Off then flashing the stock GB rom. Now it says locked and not relocked.
Just curious why would you even want to do that? Is it due to warranty issues?
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda app-developers app
Because when I'm ready to sell the device I would prefer it to be 100% stock or if I return for warranty. It is good now. I had the amaze for over a year and just recently modified it. I'm still running stock because everything is just too buggy.

I may have to send my phone to HTC for repairs and am currently unrooted via the 3.15.651.16 RUU but I have S-OFF with hboot 2.09. I am wondering how I can revert it to S-ON, I googled this and didn't find anything directly obvious on how to achieve this.

why not just flash a recovery then use the bootloader custimizer to make your phone look stock. if your still s-off u can use that tool
Hi guys,
I have my HTC rezound S-Off and rooted. Yes, I did the wire trick and if I go to the HBOOT it says S-OFF.
I am giving up my rezound and the person that wants it want a stock ROM back.
If I am not mistaken, once you are S-Off, you can just put the stock RUU into the SD card and rename to PH98IMG.zip and reboot into the bootloader, and that should do the trick correct?
Or do I need to lock hboot first and do the whole process again?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Just like you said run a Ruu and youll be good to go... Just remember to save back up anything you want saved.

Thanks much for confirming this!!!
I have the same question as the OP, but am rooted and S-ON. What's the procedure for getting back to stock, without the "Tampered" warning on my fastboot screen? I guess I need to do the S-Off trick, then flash a RUU?
Thank you in advance to whoever helps me.

You can run the RUU without going s-off and the "tampered" will go away but it will say "Relocked". Tampered is there when you have a custom recovery.
You can s-off and then run an RUU, I'm not sure what it will say then, I think it will still say s-off. If you want it to say s-on there is a procedure to s-on again but you have to be careful so you don't brick. I don't know if it will then look like factory stock or not as far as the locked/relocked thing.
What are you trying to accomplish and why? That will help someone to point you in the right direction.
I'd like to restore my phone to its absolute default. I would like to return my phone tomorrow. Can you help explain to me how a rooted phone can be restored?
WARNING: If you have flashed a custom bootloader make sure you flash it back to a stock bootloader before you do S-ON or you WILL brick.
First read the revone one thread on how to lock everything back up. First and second post have all the info you need to make it look untouched.

Do you have hboot version 1.44? If so run this from bootloader:
fastboot oem lock
Then run the ruu. If you're s-off check the thread designgears just shared with you and go s-on last.

He should use revone first to make it look untouched because the motochopper root method is blocked. Otherwise he will have to go back to the state he is in now and do it all in the right ordered

ah, you are correct.
Many thanks to you both. Mission accomplished. I re-rooted too afterwards.
Sorry for the newbish questions, but if I'm getting a replacement phone because my screen cracked and I need to send my current phone back to Asurion. I'm currently on the 1.54 hboot from the international firmware, so do simply need to flash back to the stock 1.44 hboot, use REVONE to revert to S-On, lock the bootloader and then flash the RUU? Also, can I flash the decrypted RUU zip instead of the RUU.exe after I've relocked the bootloader? I'm a Linux user and would prefer not having to install Windows to bring the phone back to stock.
