there is NO difference in the hboot's so no point updating it and even if you did when you s-offf again you will be back to the 1.27 hboot so if you did update it would be pointless

my phone came with hboot 1.29 once i gained s-off it was back to hboot 1.27 because NO1 has yet made hboot 1.29 s-off ( no1 has patched the 1.29 hboot for s-off users ) which means yes you can update but there's no point either way you will always end up back on hboot 1.27 after using s-off tools

i have attatched the new 1.29 hboot but there is still no point as when you use s-off again you will like i said end up back at 1.27

a patched hboot is when the current security is set to s-off rather than s-on. stock hboot 1.29 has security in the hboot set to s-on

Afaik revolutionary/jupuntobear give full radio s-off so any hboot you switch to will be s-off afterwards. Those patched hboots are for the htcdev bootloader unlocking to allow fastboot commands ect
