This will be useful for future HTC Devices
One thing that concerns me is that HTC say they will not provide official ROMs (RUUs)
What does this mean for me?
You now have the ability to change the way the bootloader works, meaning that you can customize software on your device. HTC will not provide this customized software for your device, and we will not provide our official ROMs for customers to download. Once you have unlocked your device, you have agreed to the disclaimer that states that in the event of your rendering your device unusable, you will have to bear the responsibility for the recovery of your device, whether by repair or by other means.

I'm hoping that all the RUUs we get are leaked, and that we will (presumably) still continue to get them?
EDIT
Looks like HTC have updated their website, it no longer says this. It said it earlier today but they have now changed it.
I dont care!!!
Who cares???
I already have it..
Yup... most incredible thing is how little anyone gives a f*%k.
Particularly anyone here.
They opened the stable door... but long after the horses bolted anyway.
There state some very interesting things in the disclaimer:
It is our responsibility to caution you that not all claims resulting or caused by or from the unlocking of the bootloader may be covered under warranty.

Click to collapse
They do not drop the warranty immediately. Only if you damage your phone caused by bad software.
Some content on your device may also be invalidated and cannot be accessed any more because of invalid DRM security keys.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Content will probably not be available anymore, like HTC Watch.
We do not guarantee that updating your device via FOTA will not render your device unusable.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
They will even drop support for their own updates.
However, due to some of our carrier customers concerns, certain models with specific restrictions may not be able to be unlocked.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Phones with branding will probably not be able to be unlocked.
So, they stil provide warranty for hardware parts, fair enough, judging by the posts regular users are making here it will be totaly insane from them to offer software support also.

ha best quote of this thread.
any news about the 1.45.(707).x update?
I love how everyone here is so concerned about their little warranty. HTC has stated that it will not completely void your warranty.
In other news, I don't see the Canadian version on that list. Are we getting screwed over?

They haven't release it yet they call it onemoreface, I think they are still in the state of building it maybe a few more months hopefully january and when they finally release it hopefully its compatible with G2.

No OTA update yet..

Yes buddy....so all we can do is wait....
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
In regards to the OTA, if you had chosen to use some logic and had a browse of the desire s forum, you would have come to the conclusion that the OTA is I'm pretty sure isolated to certain handsets in Europe currently.
HTC as far as I am aware of has also not officially announced this update.
This should answer your question.
But if you so desperately need this update there is an RUU you could use to flash your phone without voiding your precious warranty. This would happen to be located in the HTC Desire S Development subforum.
I have been reading everything in this forum about the new sense update....I do know its not officially announced yet and even about the bugs as this update seems to be a beta testing........wanted to know if any Asian or Indian got it.........I would have tried many custom ROMs even within warranty but cannot as HTC has arranged a full body replacement for my phone.....and don't want to mess or screw up the phone before this.....yes I am new to Android but have done a lot of mods with many Nokia's.....

i saw the ports and i doubt so. i followed the cm9 msm8x60 development and the bottomline is that they need a custom 3.0 kernel in order to get everything to work properly
that requires quite some work and means that someone has to port the current doubleshot kernel modifications into the cm9 3.0 kernel. According to Kornyone we're talking about ~5000 lines of code. if nobody does that we will never have a fully functional CM9.

News say that we will get a small maintenance update March 19Th.
But I mean, personally, I think the phone is fine as it is.
The only think they could improve is add the ability to delete the bloatware like AT&T does.
I believe it is Sprint that allows you to delete bloatware. at&t until reciently had their stuff so locked down you couldn't even install Amazon app store.
But yeah I agree with you the phone to me is fine as is except the bloatware.

Actually, they just recently unlocked that feature. Cell phone companies just need to stop bloating phones up with apps no one ever uses (like Rosie).
I don't know about AT&T not allowing unknown sources, but I know for sure that in their recent phones they do allow you to delete bloatware.
So I was near my local Verizon store while out for lunch and decided to pop in and check out the dot view case in person I can't say why, but I decided to boot the two demo unit devices into bootloader. To my surprise they were S-OFF, found it interesting.

Very much so, the SG4 certainly deserved an unlocked bootloader, it's too bad that never panned out.. I had to sell my SG3 + SG4 for personal reasons.
The thing that really makes me curious about these S-OFF Demo Units is if they were like this from the start.. I bought my phone before they even had them out display (got at store at 1:40pm, they couldn't even take them out until 2pm lol)
If they were S-OFF before we had the software S-OFF I wonder if they would of let me take the Demo Unit lol, I also wonder what if any is the difference between that Demo Unit, It seemed just the software..
although with no RUU being on Demo Unit software and S-OFF wouldnt do me very much good.
Either way I found it quite interesting as I have never looked to see if HTC devices are S-OFF at Verizon..
I should have checked out the HTC M7, maybe I will tmw.

Yes agreed, strangely the Demo Uints were S-OFF and LOCKED.
Just my guess, but the Demo Units they send have special software on them normally. For instance, after a certain period of time it looks through "demo" mode. They might have been shipped that way to allow for custom loading of system level items in case HTC wants to update them. Those devices on Display are normally Vendor (HTC in this case) owned.
