I just did this and installed the jb_hboot. Haven't noticed anything different, but have only been running for a few minutes. The title of the hboot is changed to Juopunutbear, but that's all I've found so far.
Not at all. Connected the phone, ran control bear in admin mode, then did the wire trick when prompted on screen. I used some stripped copper wire, but people are reporting other things work as well. As for installing the hboot, at the end of the s-off procedure it asks if you want to install it, so i said yes and it did it all for me. All in all, it was a pretty painless procedure. I spent most of my time looking for the wireWas it a difficult process? I am worried about bricking my phone.

According to the IRC, "hboot advantage is working fastboot commands write/erase".
Hmm, now when I try to fastboot flash boot boot.img, it terminates with a "remote: not allowed" error....
Try unlocking your bootloader with your unlock token.
I didn't install the included hboot, after getting s-off my bootloader was back to "locked" and not unlocked or re-locked. I was getting the same not allowed error so I just re-unlocked it with the unlock token and now fastboot flash works again.
To be fair, in the directions they said use an SD card that you're comfortable having wipedS-OFF'd on the first try! great work to all those involved. Was a little skeptical about the "wire-trick" but didnt let it stop me.
thanks again!

it might be a good idea to note the possibility of data loss/corruption of sdcard.
i lost quite a few important files, and was pretty pissed about it. but all is well and it was worth it to get s-off.
thanks again.

They do mention the loss of data on their site before the directions under prerequisites. It says you may want to back up data using a spare sd card due to data loss.
