You don't bother reading the guides in the Android Dev section do you? Besides, S-Off is currently not available.
yes, i know that it is now not avaiable but my question is other: if i unlock bootloader, after that SOff will be release, the phone can the possibilty to return to his original conditions? the warranthy can be recovered???

It depends on the exploit..

It can return but HTC will know as when unlocking via HTCDev you submit a unique device identifier that will allow HTC to know whether you have unlocked your bootloader
And aren't there a metod to hide this?

Definition of lazy and annoying. Couldn't you just search before? At least read the titles on the first page of threads, as maybe someone would've had the same question? No, of course not, because that would've mean to actually spend some time (about 5-10 minutes) to read a couple of replies. Instead it was much better posting a new thread and read the replies 2 days later.
Protip: You don't really need S-OFF if you're HTC-Dev unlocked.

Hi, there's no way to unlock without htcdev unlock if you upgraded to stock official ics with RUU. I guess this wont change in the future too...
I decided to unlock two weeks ago after giving up waiting.

Waiting for what? Nobody is working on this device anymore. At least not in the direction you both need

True. That's why I eventually unlocked.

No. And I doubt anything will.
Maybe what you want is more S-OFF than unlocked bootloader. I'm pretty sure you can still temproot/misc_version to downgrade from ICS to Gingerbread by RUU, S-OFF etc, then flash to an ICS rom (not the RUU).

No you can't. Temp root for the Ics RUU does not exist.

You need to unlock the bootloader if you want to root, install a custom recovery, install custom roms and so forth.
Why don't u want unlock bootloader.It is nescesary and doesn't make more differently

Is there any way to S-OFF and root this phone without unlocking bootloader via www.htcdev.com?
I don't want to have ***UNLOCKED*** in my bootloader...
Usually, as you know, this is a huge problem when you selling a used phone...

If you unlock and then S-Off, you can set it to say ***LOCKED*** instead of ***RELOCKED*** when you relock it. So yeah, take that route.
How to do that?

Not a clue, but people have done it. You can also remove the ***TAMPERED*** tag. I think that usaff22 knows.
OK, thanks... We will wait to someone give me a full info
If you search on the development sub-forum then I guarantee that you will find it.

It involves partition editing. To write over those words. You better be good at that stuff, or else

hi,
I had the same doubts...
ok, as far as I understand i need to:
1) unlock via htcdev
2) get supercid
3) s-off the phone
4) install any rom that I want (steps 2 & 3 are optional if I don't want to install boot.img after every rom I install)
5) if needed, relock the bootloader (via the thread you posted)
ok I understand that putting back "LOCKED" on bootloader is just for warranty purposes...but...
If I even relock the bootloader putting "LOCKED" status, HTC could always saw that I unlocked the phone since I unlocked it through HTCDEV and they have my serial...or not?? Am I missing something?
no-one?

How do I unlock a re-locked bootloader? I had previously unlocked the boot-loader, but needed to factory reset my phone, so i did. And now i want to unlock my bootloader and in fastboot it still shows as "relocked". Ive tried going to HTC DEV but it didn't work, and ive tried the original method of firewater. I've lurked all over the place and I cant find anything for the M8, if anyone could help thatd be awesome. THNX:angel:

When you tried htcdev you need to change your cid to 11111111 of you still have s-off of course. then you should be able to unlock it
