Quick question, does this actually lock the device or does it simply change the unlock flag? If it does lock it, what it's the best way to unlock again?

Best is to rewrite the flag - there are 2 threads - one for remowing the tampered flag and second for locking the bootloader.Quick question, does this actually lock the device or does it simply change the unlock flag? If it does lock it, what it's the best way to unlock again?

Once you are s-off you can lock and unlock the bootloader how many times you want using simple commands.
Thanks for clarifying, I'm already s-off and it works perfectly.
I tried HTC Chat and received an email link that sent me to Google but it claimed I already received the storage. re-lock was the only way to get it.

When I obtained S-OFF I cleared the TAMPERED LOGO there and then, but left my boot loader unlocked.
Followed your guide and locked my bootloader and was able to get my 100 GB! Currently on 125 GB NOW!
I'm on 5.0.1 GPE Rooted with the SD write mod applied.
Thanks!
Just did this and all I had to do was go to HTC Chat, give the rep my model, carrier & serial number and I received the email link in less than a min.
The offer is for a limited time, or you will have the 100gb forever?

But you follow the first page guide right?
If you relock bootloader, then how do you unlocked once you get the promo?
I try live chat with htc 2x they wouldn't give me my promo.just email htc !
I told them i had unlocked and rooted the phone ( thanks to htc ) and they sent me a link with the activation. Took me all of 5 mins in total
USReally? Maybe you should try again. 3rd time might be the charm. Did you use Live Chat in the US or another country? I had no problems when I did it
HERE is is
They are about the same thing, may be better if everything is in the same place. have a word with the OP and see what he thinks then ask a mod, they should be able to help out
That's just a thread debating ways some people were able to get it... Posts point to threads to lock the bootloader, and other posts state the tampered banner needs to be removed but no links.... It's a mess for anyone that doesn't understand what all needs to be done, nor how to do it.
That's why I compiled the thread here...it takes all the endless discussions, and just condenses it into a straightforward sequence of steps to get it.
