Default Bootloader "Relocked"

I need to send Amaze in for warranty replacement, but bootloader shows as "Relocked." Do any of the legendary android dev heroes know if its possible to restore the Amaze bootloader to show "Locked" as it originally did. Not sure if the relocked status will void the warranty.

Not without s=off... The testers of s=off script I think are able to, but ours (s=on) will say "relocked."

Your warranty is probably still good... As long as it was a hardware issue... And if its a software issue, that can probably be fixed w/o sending it in

Thanks... I believe its a hardware issue. It was running fine on senseless rom, then all of a sudden it began overheating when charging, and the phone would just continually reboot until the battery was completely drained. It showed battery health was poor so I replaced the battery, but the problem persisted. The phone overheats when charging, and just keeps loading all the way to the home screen, then it auto reboots after less than a minute. I reverted everything back to stock to see if that fixed the problem, but it still does the same thing. T-mobile tech support said the prob sounds hardware related. Has anyone heard of software causing these problems? As far as I can find through searching s-off is still a no go for the average "instruction follower" like me. I dont wan t to jump into trying s-off when its still in the r&d stages and destroy an already limping device. thanks for all the help. There are many geniuses on XDA and I dont think you all get the credit u deserve.
