SuperCID or HTC-Dev for unlocking bootloader?

Hi,
Which is the best option for unlocking the bootloader on this device?
Specifically, which will not void my warranty and allow me to re-lock if I need warranty work done for hardware failure?
Thanks in advance.
All SuperCid does is to make your phone generic (non american). It does not unlock your bootloader.
If you are not in the united states, congratulation---don't bother, just go to htc dev and unlock. Choose "all other supported devices" for your one x.
if you are in the US, supercid your phone, and then go to Htc Dev and do the same thing.
btw, you will need supercid to flash american ruu (.exe) if you are Canadian (that's what occurred to me, odd...)

Any currently available unlock is flagged by HTC and MAY void your warranty.

once you unlock the bootloader you cannot clear its path by relocking to get back warranty.

True as stated above, except for one exception if you hard brick your phone, there is no way for them to determine that your phone had the boot loader unlocked. Just requesting the unlock code is not evidence enough that it was unlocked, just that you requested the code. I had done that in the past requested a code and not ever used it because root became available and I found out about loosing DRM keys etc.

How to set "locked" again the bootloader after unlock?

Hi guys, I've unlocked the bootloader, then I tried to lock it again, but now BL is set on "RELOCKED" and not on "LOCKED".
So, I think, in case I've to send my phone in warranty, I will have problems!
So, the question is: how can I set again in "LOCKED" the bootloader?
Thank you so much!
Did you not use the unlock code provided by Huawei? Otherwise, they already know you voided the warranty.

There is no way if you did it with the 16 digit code. It will be only relock and no lock. Had you used the other way of unlocking, you may have locked it again. Whats the requirements, only to regain warranty?

Yeah, I've requested the code, but it doesn't mean nothing: I Can request it but it doesn't mean that I have to use it! ^_^

Don't worry. Unless you run into something very critical you wont need it..even though if you go to service centre, not all cares for bootloader.

Yes unlocking the bootloader does void warranty.
Motorola rarely enforces it, and will fix or replace if there was a manufacturer problem.

I have the screen that already tends to green on greyish colors so I'm afraid that by unlocking the BL then maybe when I decide to send it to assistance, they won't recognize the damage
