[Q] Restore factory default lock for HTC with HBOOT 2.00 with S-on unlocked by HTCDev

First of all Hello to every one. I must appreciate the work done by the community members and it is tremendous. I apologize if this has been answered earlier.
My Device details (as looks in the Fastboot):
---------------------------------
***UNLOCKED***
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT - 2.00.0002
RADIO- 3822.10.08.04_M

--------------------------------------------
I have the RUU for the device which is: RUU_Saga_S_hTC_Asia_India_2.15.720.3_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_226809_signed
Now the question: Can I go back to Factory Default Lock i.e. Remove the **** Unlocked *** or ****Re-LOCKED**** ( which can be done using fastboot oem lock ).
Is there any way to get back to the Factory Default Lock as I want to give my device to the Service Center guys due to some speaker issues.
I know, unlocking causes warranty Void and I want to go back to Stock condition to avail warranty.
I have installed the RUU, which does not solve the problem.
If someone can guide me, would really appreciate that.
Thanks in Advance......

No, it isn't.
I tried to downgrade and flash different hboots but the output is always the same.
Another problem is that they already have your phones ID(serial, imei etc)numbers.

[Q] Bootloop - Need help finding RUU!

Hello, recently unlocked the bootloader, rooted, everything was great!
Today I decided to try and flash a rom, all didn't go as planned.. Did a full wipe, then installed the zip, tried to boot, stuck in bootloop. I followed posts that recommended wiping and so on, so I did. I later found out I needed to flash the boot.img to make the rom work, whoops..
Anyway, too late now. Everything is wiped. I still have access to the TWRP Recovery (is that how it's spelled?) and Bootloader. I'm going to use Ruu to fix it. My problem is I can't find the right one for my phone, and I want to make sure I have to right one before I relock my bootloader.
Here are my details;

Just removed imei and serial, fairly sure I shouldn't be sharing those!
Can anyone please help me?

You said you wiped everything. If that means EVERYTHING including system, mass storage , ..., then RUU would be the way to go.
But! If you still have the rom flashed (the ome that bootloops), you could try booting the phone into bootloader, going into fastboot mode and flashing the boot.img using your PC. That is, if you didnt wipe the system partition yet (after flashing the bootlooping rom). I believe it doesnt really matter whether you flash the boot.img before or after the ROM. Just be sure to wipe cache and dalvik between rom and kernel (the boot.img) flashes.

If you say there are no RUUs for H3G, you should change your CID (aka unbranding) to the international EU cid and then you can use those RUUs.

Hiya,
I'm on T-Mobile, was stuck on bootloader for 2 weeks with security warning and triangles in the corners this saved me (Saved to my dropbox incase I messed it up again).

Failing that you need to create a gold card I think, which I recall was tricky with a bricked phone but I am a novice

Now , I wanted to root my HTC one X , I download Philz touch Recovery , But Instead of Flashing it as a recovery image, i flashed it as a boot image , So when i turn the phone on , it just goes to the philz Recovery Automatically,the phone doesn't boot normally anymore.
i tried to wipe cache, and to reset my phone to the factory settings, i tried many other things , and i ended up facing a dead-end
I tried to install many other Kernels(i dunno if they're compatible or not) , the same thing , but now it's stuck on the HTC Logo, and then it turns off.
I have No backup
Do i have to install a stock RUU ? how can i Flash a new Firmware ?
I've no clue to be honest.
THANKS guys.

Hi,
Flashing the wrong kernel will pretty much always result in a bricked phone.

[HELP] Removing carrier branding, S-OFF and rooting

Hey guys.
I recently got a second-hand HTC One S (I think its the S3 model, since it says "Dual Core 1.5Ghz" in the settings or something like that) and it has the Vodafone carrier branding. I'm trying to remove it, root it and S-OFF it, but I'm new to HTC stuff (I'm used to mess with Motorola phones... way more easy) and it is not working.
I've already unlocked my bootloader and tried to root using superoot, but its stuck on "this build is for development purposes only" screen. Also, moonshine S-OFF is not compatible with my build (3.16.111.16), so I can't S-OFF it (whatever S-OFF means).
Can somebody help me? I've read a lot of threads, but none were useful enough
(Also, I can't get the fastboot of this phone to work on Windows 10, not even after following many tutorials).
Thanks in advance!

No one?

Ok, so if anyone ever needs this: I ended up finding that my model has the S4 processor when I tried to install TWRP. Then I installed CyanogenMod and managed to change the CID by hex-editing one partition (you can find it on the general section, I believe). After that, I had to revert back to stock (since camera doesn't worked for me on CM12), but since I had changed the CID, now I could flash any ville RUU!

Thanks mate for helping us
I have almost the same problem. Phone came to me with original Locked Bootloader and S-ON, and I hurried to install a custom ROM to upgrade the Android from original 4.1.2 to a Custom ROM 5.1 ( Candy one ), but I just unlocked bootloader and went immediately at the procedure of flashing Candy custom ZIP firmware and then GAPPS but after writing those 2 zips now my phone hangs at a black screen and is not booting.
Priot to writing those ZIPs I tried to S-OFF using Rumrunner, but it failed so I thought that it is not needed and I believed that just unlocking bootloader and writing Custom ROM like in HTC m7 and M8 that I have done some will work. But seems I am stuck now at S-ON and my phone doesn't boot, as I can not find a newer or same firmware version that the phone had:

that I downloaded two times at Androidruu, but it is corrupted as a file, but I think also that I can not write that firmware as it is lower version than my phone had when it was working.
Also I think that I have S4 because when it was working I checked with an application that somebody said on this forum and it was adequate for S4
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks
