I was able to get cwm loaded by putting it in a pb31img.zip file ( i was s off so it worked fine)
i also have adb in recovery
i saw this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2509821
which shows it can be unlocked but i bet the blocks are different

"echo -ne "HTCU" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=33796"

Do I care if I am S-off and can use pb31img.zip and have recovery
i bet I just need a different h boot

which number should I have
