I'm excited to be able to change the what the bootloader says incase it breaks.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowboy23:
There's no proof that you have unlocked your BL. Yes you got the key but whether you unlocked it or not is another matter.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArmedandDangerous:
They have a database of phones REQUESTING for an unlock code, but not whether you used it or not.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abzillard:
They would definitely have a database my friend. The IMEI and the identifier tokens as well since they are unique for each device.

This thread is going off-topic. Only Q&A related to beaups and Fuses upcoming S-OFF for the HTC One please.

more info here in the droid DNA section http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2293010
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowboy23:
Yes they will have a database but they can't tell if you unlocked the BL. All they have are your IMEI number and the token. Even when you try to unlock the BL the phone gives you an option whether you want to go ahead and unlock it. See picture below (you can see you can choose "YES" or "NO" to unlock the bootloader):

So even if you get the token they can't tell if you went ahead and unlocked it. Because with S-OFF you can flash the original BL back and it will show that the BL is "LOCKED" and not "RELOCKED".
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abzillard:
My friend, the moment you send you're identifier code as well as your IMEI of the device, the warranty is gone, dead, vamoosh.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rovex:
What rubbish. That would be totally illegal for HTC to do that in the EU and probably in 99% of other countries as well. Even with a custom ROM installed HTC still have to honour hardware failures.

Stop spreading such ideas, they are false. The only thing HTC can refuse is to fix a bricked device and only then if the device was actually unlocked and flashed with custom software.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abzillard:
I thought that was how it went. My apologies.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rovex:
HTCs warranty goes slightly beyond the legal minimum, but only just, any hardware failure is still covered, whatever you do, unless HTC can prove the hardware was damaged by a customisation they have to repair it as required by EU law. So for example, if the screen goes faulty, they have to fix it, but if you flash custom software and it hard bricks, thats your problem.

HTC might initially refuse to fix it, sometimes they do try it on, but if you remind them of their legal responsibility they will ultimately have no choice if the software was not to blame.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowboy23:
Totally WRONG!!! rovex knows how it is.

To be honest I think the best solution for everyone who either doesnt have linux installed on anything currently use the wubi install? Just a one click install of ububtu only work involved is selecting how big you want the ubunu partition to be, to uninstall the wubi version install just boot into windows again and remove as if it was a programme, plus works as should unlike usb or CD boots as dependant on hardware config and drives used that can be very slow. Www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/windows-installer , this is best for most people who only want to use it for the s-off requires little to no effort

I'm sick of seeing unlocking Bootloader is an automatic void of warranty. It just isn't.

It MIGHT be in some countries.

But HTC's wording says MAY void warranty,

not YOUR WARRANTY IS VOID.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neuer_User:
It doesn't make a difference what htc states. It does however make a difference what the repair center says. And there are many known cases in which they refused a repair.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Selfmade Rulez:
And please don't forget ;) This kind of voiding the warranty is a different kind as the complete warranty void. So when you open your phone and take a look on your hardware it voids the whole warranty. But when you unlock your Bootloader you will have still a part of your warranty like display damages or such things. So it's your own risk to overclock your CPU for example. When the CPU get damaged you have to pay for it ;)

External what? USB or ESATA? If it is USB it might not work for this, same as live USB stick. ESATA and you are fine. Yes 32 bit, 13.04 should work but 12.04 is the more solid choice.

Or just burn an ubuntu 32bit CD/dvd and boot off that for running s-off and keep your existing external 64bit installation for your regular linux needs.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
Htc usually won't knock you back even if you do unlock it. I suppose it depends on the issue and the engineer you get. Its quite simple for the to fix or swap it out. I've heard of people getting their phones back even when theyve sent it in with cyanogen mod still on it. And others where theyve relocked it and sent it back and been knocked back. So I suppose its luck at the end of the day. If the phone can be relocked then they'll fix it for sure. They deal with far too many phones to check whether its been requested to be unlocked or not, so providing s off is available and the phone can be factory locked again you'll have no issues. Sending it back relocked can still work but you do risk them saying no.
