You don't NEED ENG S-OFF for anything really, Revolutionary does it all for you. I personally flashed the ENG HBOOT as I don't like the Revo logo at the top of the HBOOT

If you have new hboot (2.00.002) and you are S-OFF, it means your phone has hardware S-OFF, using XTC clip. You don't have to unlock it. You can do right about everything with your phone without unlocking it.
So why is this

Try 'fastboot oem unlock'
Some first gen phone's were s-off to start with. Don't quote me on that, I'm guessing.

Because s-off/s-on and locked/unlocked are 2 different things. Trust me being s-off'ed by xtc clip is more then enough, you can install anything you want. I have a phone like that. Don't unlock, there is no need for that. You can flash any RUU if you want so and still stay s-off and then flash any custom rom, and then RUU again... I've done that all more then once.

Since your phone already is s-off,
You can root it now using a tool like superoneclick or something else.

Agree with the above.
What I personaly did is installed latest RUU 2.10.401.9 just to have the latest hboot and radio (since I have xtc clip s-off, I stayed s-off). Then rooted it with one click tool, flashed latest 4ext recovery and installed my favorite custom rom.

Is it necessary to take nandroid backup before rooting or we can simply backup our appz

Are you kidding?? Already told you.
If it's already s-off, root it with superoneclick, install recovery like 4ext or cwm, backup everything and flash roms like it's going crazy.
Search the forums, it's written a hundret times everywhere!#!

Dude, you know, I'm not gonna do the simple search work for you. I tried to help you but I have other things to do aswell. If you're not able to find the mentioned stuff by yourself, you should probably not play around with your device...

Hi there! The title kinda explains my question.
My question is this, I am sending my sensation away for repairs this week and it is S-OFF but running a stock rom, is it necessary for me to get it back to S-ON to send it to HTC?
Thanks in advance
Paddy
Yep. S-off voids warranty.

Well I have had two warranty repairs while s-off not sure if you want to risk it but I did and it worked TWICE!!

@sensation-al. Interesting!

I'd still send it back S-ON to be on the safe side
I agree with EddyOS, I'd S-ON before sending it back.
That is of cource, if you S-OFFed with Revolutionary.
IF you used the unlocker on htcdev, your warranty is voided.
Apparently if some providers don't even check for S-OFF, there is a chance that you'd get through with. But as everyone said: S-ON is the safest
Thanks for the replies, I shall go with the safe option and put it back to S-ON

If you are s-on use the juopuntbear method to s-off or if you did something else to brick it AS WELL look for a guide by dexter.
