Default Need VERY willing guinea pig- Possible S-off!

Well, this is probably not going to work, and it's very likely your phone will go kaput, but I need someone to risk this since I don't have a device for it. I have changed the version of the hboot, and all I need is someone to dd it to the proper partition. Again, it could work since not much was edited in hex, but still, very possible for broken / bricked devices. :| Do not reply unless you are SURE you want to risk it. Just so you know, if you're not HTC unlocked, you can brick your phone and claim hardware fault. Even though I dont condone that. :X

Attention all: deck is a scrub.

There were several people in the S-OFF dev thread willing to flash things to their phone. That being said, I'm fairly sure that Blue6IX might have tried this already.

No I'm pretty sure this is different from last time around. I think he made some changes and wants another go

I've made a couple of approaches. Either A) It won't write, or B) It will and then I have a way to confirm it.

I dunno. I was assuming OP was referring to hex edits to the misc.img.
