Sorry

Hey guys, if there's a way to get RID of this S-OFF, I'm welcome to hear it. I want my warranty back and think I have pretty much messed up my phone. WiFi doesn't work, it gives "Error" when I try to turn it on, and stuff. I want to get it fixed without going to the HTC Service Centre... and I want to get back the stock S-ON bootloader, not JuopunutBear. Please help.

Oh, and auggie2k, a possible reason why I'm getting the wifi error may be because your rooted ROM version is 3.32.401.3, while my stock version is 3.32.707.110. I think the 3rd set of numbers makes a difference. So where do I get a stock ROM that's my version?

Well in my guide, at the top I highly recommending backing up and starting fresh with a clean stock ROM (I posted) and then running Bear.

But if S-OFF was successful, you need to do the same procedure I explained in my last post and extract the boot.img out of your 3.32.707.110 ROM ZIP instead and flash that in Fastboot to resolve the Wi-Fi error. This error has been around a while and it's what fixed my issue initially.

Probably a mis-match between kernel and wifi module... just use an RRU to return to (mostly) stock. You will still be S-OFF, but everything else will be stock. Also being S-OFF isn't really a reason for HTC to refuse you a warranty claim.

I sent my Nexus One to HTC to be repaired, and it came back from them as S-OFF (it was S-ON when I sent it, as no-one had bothered figuring out how to S-OFF them 'til recently).

after 52 trials i finally did it

on an unrelated topic. what is the difference between flashing roms unlocked and flashing roms s-off?

S-off=security off/all partitions can be written to

Unlocked= only your Recovery, System, and boot partitions can be written to
