Has there been any real progress on S-Off? I know in the bounty thread that there is a developer working on it but I wasnt sure if this thread was correlated to the other.

I bought one of those ebay sim unlock codes today, but before applying it I dd'ed partitions 1-33 just to see what changes. Doing a diff between the partition dump before and after the unlock I see partitions 3, 24, 25, 26, and 33 have changed. The process itself involved entering the code after inserting a non AT&T sim while the phone was booted. If I remember right it took a little while after the code was inserted and then wanted to reboot.

Do you guys think that it unlocks partition mmcblk0p3 while the phone is booted or that it somehow queues it for hboot to do on the next reboot? If its while its booted we could sneak a change to 0x8400 in while it's unlocked doing it's thing.

If anyone is curious the changes to mmcblk0p3 before and after the sim unlock is to locations 0xc25-0xc28 and 0xAC01-0xAE00

I don't think it is going to completely disable wp after the code is entered. P3 is protected by sbl2 which is prehboot and the code obviously initiates a change so I think, if you wanted too(please) re simlock the phone, boot up and input the unlock code. When it tells you to reboot the device stop there and dd the partitions and diff those against the originals. It could tell us where the change is made that allows a wp change to be made. Lol, u tracking?? Thanks for your help BTW. I know how boring and repetitive it is dding and diffing:beer:

Is there a fastboot command to re-simlock?

So in fastboot when I hit the simlock command it printed
"SD init fail !!!
Process done, reboot device?
<VOL UP> Yes"

Looks like it wants file on an SD card which doesn't exist on the One X...

Phone was still simunlocked after rebooting.

If u get it re simlocked, instead of dding all those partitions maybe just try and adb pull your /data/local. And /data/local/tmp after u input code and before reboot. Ideally don't think this is going to lead anywhere so don't burn yourself up if there's any issues. Really appreciate or input and hekp :beer:
