So is the XTC Clip reversible?

Sorry to ask a question that I thought that I knew the answer to but is the XTC clip S-OFF reversible, the post below has confused me:

S-on after xtc clip can be achieved by running this on the phone, in a root shell: echo -e '[email protected]=7,1\r' > /dev/smd0

as this obviously has significant implications towards being able to ensure that we can keep our warranty valid.
Would appreciate your comments and opinions.
I thank you.

may be you need someone to try it ???

So far as I can tell, no its not

I think it isn't. Even if it is, we need someone to test it, but i'm pretty sure no one will. Who want's to revert back to stock? You'd have to do the WHOLE procedure again. S-Off is the toughest part, no one would want to go back (except for warranty purposes)

Someone who owns the unlimited version of XTC Clip, can try these commands and confirm if it works, He can then S-OFF again using the clip.

I Completely agree with you, so do we have any volunteers?
I know that I had to travel 60 miles and spent £10 to achieve my s-off status (thanks @yourmate) and I'm not ready to do it again
But this would be very good to know

60 miles ?!? Wow that's a lot. I found one in my neighbourhood, so i barely travelled 3 miles, and i spent the same amount, but for what i've got on my phome right now, i would've travelled 60 miles.

Hi Everybody,
XTC Clip can only Turn S-OFF. It dosent have the Feature to Turn S-ON.
Hope My Clarification is Enough.
I have success fully S-OFFed many.

Was there any need to revive this old thread? The xtc clip is no longer needed

Unfortunately I haven't, if I still had an XTC clip I'd happily do so....but I'm not about to end up S-ON with no way back and No UNLOCKED doesn't quite cut it for me!

[Q] Where can I buy a genuine HTC back cover?

I dropped my sensation on a concrete floor and have managed to shatter the plastic on the back cover. Anyone know where I could purchase a genuine HTC back cover plate? I'm live in the uk. will htc send me one if i contact them, if so what email address or phone number should i contact them on?
Look forward to the reply
Regards
Hayden

yes HTC will send you a free one.
about the number, i would give it to you but id rather you search for it.
its pretty easy

What a douche. It took you more time and board space to give a smart-ass answer than to just give him/her the number. What if you walk up to someone on the street and asked for the time, only for them to tell you "Well, I would give it to you, but I would rather you search for it, since it is so easy to find." I would probably call you a dickhead and tell you I did search for it, but apparently people, and the interaction that goes along with it, are not sources of information anymore and are no good for society.
You could have just not gave him the number and just the information about the back cover, but instead you decided to be a douche. Think about it.
Here you go, try this number in the UK:
+44-845-890-0079

My situation wad worse .. dropped it and broke the screen along with the back casing. I sent it back in to get the screen replaced (160) and also ask for a replacement casing but they said only if I can proof that there is something wrong with the original (non-cosmetic issues only). So I told them wifi death grip causes by the casing .. a week later I received the new case .. of course this was tmous htc .. not sure if they will give you one in uk

how about you use some common sense? looking up numbers online is pretty easy, asking here would take more time than searching for the number, and it only makes sense that when you go to HTC website the number will be there.
I ddnt want to sound like a douche but dude, this type of question is pretty easy to find an answer if you just look

Considering they sell on eBay for under $300 LNIB he may as well buy one there and sell his Sensation. The Sensation's going for over $400 on eBay. That way he'll make $100 vs. giving you $200. You may like your phone but the market determines price/value.

Done... Trading with Gideonx

Couple of things here. First, I wasn't talking to you. Second and here's the kicker... If its such a amazing phone, why are you getting rid of it? Whoever made this trade with you better think twice. You seem to be wanting to hype up a crap device. Why? I'm no fanboy. I hate both phone equally.

Wow, went right over your head there didn't it Skippy. I was writing in simple terms even a person like you could understand. Wait, you want me to ask me how old I am? Me all ready knows how old me is. The yutes [My Cousin Vinny] of the world... What is to become of us? Sigh.
[Special message to the person who traded Skippy here for his Sensation - Get the Sensation FIRST - test it for a day or two before sending off your G2X.]

Purple Kittens are $12.95 per half dozen but we are running a special this week: Buy 7 Pink kittens and get 5 purple for $2.95!

The sensation is an amazing phone but the g2x is a speed demon. I understood what you were saying but you were speaking broken English like you're fresh off the boat.

So long fellow sensation lovers... Unfortunately I dropped my phone and shattered the screen.. when I called the insurance company the told me they don't support sensations but gave me a choice of a galaxy s2 or a HTC amaze...
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium

Don't get the Amaze! I bought it for my girlfriend since it had basically the same hardware as the Sensation, and I loved my Sensation. Completely difficult to do any kind of hacking or flashing, and there is NO development over in their dev threads next to some high school themers.
I guess I can't complain because I haven't/can't contribute to the development. But just a fair warning.
