Imei shouldn't have changed unless you changed it.. cid is what changes.

Will I have my gsm relocked if I flash a 2.20 RUU (today i`m on 1.85)?
I`m from Brasil, so I can`t get the OTA update from AT&T.
Thanks in advance.
If your phone was imei unlocked, then updating won't change a thing. And your imei cannot change: you can spoof it, but it never changes permanently.

The bootloader screen will forever say "RELOCKED" though.
Would HTC still repair it

I don't work for HTC so I can't tell you. Are you paying for service? Or using your warranty? If you're trying to use warranty, it was voided the second the BL was unlocked. You may luck out and they might not check or see it. What's the worst that could happen? They send it back and say they can't service it?
If you bought it from AT&T, return it to AT&T. There have been a bunch of reports by folks on here that have had warranty honored by AT&T even though the bootloader is RELOCKED. And haven't seen any reports of AT&T doing otherwise.

It will always only say RELOCKED. Only way for it to say LOCKED is if the bootloader was never unlocked. Some think the flag can be changed to LOCKED if we get S-Off. RUU will only remove the TAMPERED tag. It will not make it back to LOCKED.
With s-off we can make it say biscuits if we want

With s-off you can also change the boot splash.

Unless it's bricked, most carriers will still honor the warranty on an unlocked phone.

Hi there!
I really would like to unlock my one S but I don't want to loose the warranty, I have seen this thread regarding the work that is under development for the one X http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604300 and I was wondering if something like this exist here too

There isn't really any active work toward s-off for the One S. I think the hope is that anything the Att One-X guys come up with will work on or phone also. So there is still hope.
Also, you can unlock your phone without going through HTCdev. Therefore not losing your warrenty but you would need files from someones phone who is unlocked. The link below explains it but DO NOT try it with the files in the link as it won't work. You need the files from a One S.

Well, I think that an exploit for the one X cannot be used for the one S because of different chip used on the devices... We have a Qualcomm one while the one X has tegra. I would check the link that you have pass me but I think that it will be hard to find someone who would pass me the right files...

The AT&T (and some other NA carriers) One X (AKA One XL) has the MSM8960 which is also a S4 Krait+Adreno 225 combo, just with an LTE modem.

It would work for sure. If someone has a device going back to t-mobile or HTC for replacement we could use their partitions.

TAMPERED isn't such a great issue. It goes away by just flashing a RUU.
The real issue is the RELOCKED message you get when relocking the bootloader. To prevent this RELOCKED message, and to have it displaying LOCKED isntead (this way the bootloader won't appear to have been ever unlocked), you have to achieve S-OFF. That's what they're working on, if I'm not mistaken.

It would still show tampered. The only reason you would want to do it this way is so your phone wouldn't show up in HTC's database of phones they unlocked. When you unlock through HTC Dev you agree that unlock the phone may void parts of your warranty.
And as the other poster above stated even if you locked the boot-loader again it would say Relocked instead of Locked. So there isn't really much a reason to do it this way.
Well I hope that a way to unlock the phone without leaving traces will eventually cames out. I do not want to use htcdev because I have to keep this phone for 30 months as I have taken it with an operator contract, so if something happen and I have unlocked it then I would have no warranty.

My situation: I rooted my ATT One X using 2.20 xfactor exploit that changed my phone's CID. I am now running the King Kang ROM. I got my sim unlock code directly from ATT but it keeps giving a failure message. I read another similar thread on this topic but that was from a few months ago and was not resolved.
My question: does the rooting/bootloader unlocking process affect the ability to sim unlock my phone? If yes, then can I restore the phone back to factory settings including the original CID, etc. so that I can try to use that sim unlock code again? Will re-locking the bootloader and flashing a 2.20 RUU suffice?
Thanks,
Sathya
It shouldn't. I can't see any connection between the two. SIM is for service, bootloader is for the phone.
I had this problem.
You have to be on a Sense ROM (doesn't have to be stock) in order to SIM unlock the the HOX.
Backup your current setup, wipe and flash any Sense ROM and then try to unlock. Works like a charm.
Once you're unlocked, you can go back to restoring or flashing AOSP-based ROMs

i'm on htc one x with ATT, trying to unlock it to use with tmobile.
bought code from cellunlocker.net
went from CM10 to cleanROM 5.0....unsuccessful.
the imei number i provided to cellunlocker.net is the same as in phone settings and when you do *#06#.......
BUT...i noticed the imei in phone setting does not match the imei on physical sticker on phone or the sim insert plate...wtf is it different. i got the phone directly from ATT!
already email cellunlocker.net for unlock code for the IMEI on physical sticker/sim plate.
any suggestions...or other ways of sim unlock.
Thanks

Well .. the dumb thing is i called att...the imei they have matches with the one inside the phone... And they claim they didn't have an unlock code for it...called twice...both rep tried to look up unlock code for me.
Maybe i shld try to get unlock code for the imei number on outside of phone...on phone sticker, box, sim tray...????
Why the heck are the two imei numbers different??? Should i go to att to complain n get diff one... although it has been about a yr...doubt they'll do anything about it.
I unlocked , installed custom on my phone, then I relocked my bootloader and flash stock att2.20 by running ruu.exe. now, everytime I checked for software update, it always says service unavailable. Do you guys know anything about this problem? Btw, my phone is unlocked and use T-Mobile.

You realize you can't update a stock AT&T device via T-Mobile, even if you're using a T-Mobile sim card?

It always puzzles me why do people on custom ROMs want to get OTAs?
AT&T JB isn't rolling out yet. When it does, it will get posted in Development in a TWRP-flashable rooted form.
I also doubt the OTA will feature much (if anything) that is not already present in the JB Sense ROMs already up in Development, plus all of AT&T's bloatware crap and other meddling. Possibly including a new hboot that will mess up even more stuff this time.
Hi i have a big problem.. my HTC One X dosnt accept the carrier unlock code. I get it from two different unlock sites.. both code where the same. Someone knows about the cable method and can help me ..
the phone is to expensive to throw it away.
I will pay for the unlock method via cable!
thx
in order to use unlock code you have to be on SENSE ROM.
Are you on sense ROM?

Is the actual unlock code based off imei of each idividual phone or is there a universal code. I've never unlocked phone and was curious . My guess is every phone has unique code or we would see posts with codes to use.
