Root Go back to S-ON?

Hi guys,
I was wondering if there is any way to go back to S-ON and get rid of the ***TAMPERED*** sign when you boot to bootloader.

Thanks
 
I'm actually looking into this at the moment to see if it's possible

Question to the OP: Are you trying to completely unroot or are you attempting to just go back to S-ON?

Also, someone who is currently S-ON, can you report the output of "fastboot oem readsecureflag"
 
is there a way to unroot?

Unrooting should be as simple as opening your root app and finding the option for "full unroot" (most likely in settings).

Also, going back to S-ON is easily achieved, just boot into the bootloader and type the following command (assuming you already have fastboot):

Code: 
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3

If you reboot into the bootloader, you should see you have S-ON. Was able to do this since I was following the guide to install OTAs after S-OFF (which leaves the tampered flag with a locked bootloader)

EDIT: I don't recommend doing this until it is known whether or not it is possible to S-OFF again after returning to S-ON. I can't seem to do it
