Alright i need help badly. I consider myself an advanced noob in installing roms and kernals on a phone. I have the rezound. I unlocked it about a week about and went through the step by step instructions. I installed ziggys kernal. I was getting some bootloops but not to many until this morning. My phone kept bootlooping. I would take the battery out and put it back and it would do it again. I tried wiping the date cache and dalvik. Nothing. I then formatted all to ext3. After i did that it said i need to install a rom. I try to restart my phone and it just stays on the HTC screen. I tried to do the factory restore. Nothing. I have to put my sd card in after i get into recovery because when i go to the bootloader screen the HBOOT does something and then asks me if i want to do an update. I tried and hit yes and it did it then reboots but nothing. When i hit no it just wants me to reboot my phone, which does nothing for me. As it is right now my phone wont load. it just stays on the HTC screen. HELP please

Try this, but you should really search first.
I would try that but my phone will not boot. it will not go past the HTC start up screen

The other half of the problem is that it sounds like he formatted ext3 and wiped his ROM. So, he'd have to reboot back into recovery and restore a backup or drop a new ROM on the phone via USB.
Grab the RUU and start all fresh again.

Good point. I'm in class, so I just read it quickly. RUU sounds like the way to go.....start with a clean slate.
how do i get to the RUU
See "shipped Rom collection" sticky in dev section

Good Luck
This is one of the reasons I have not tried to hack this device. Although I may unlock/root my Rezound I'm not in a hurry to. It's really a great device. Just too expensive for me to maybe mess up. Especially since its our own fault if we do. Can't blame the carrier/manufacturer for not paying to fix/replace either. Hopefully you get it fixed soon. I know I wouldn't want to have to go through all that either.
i just installed the CleanRom. Ill let you know if this works

You need to reflash the kernel in order to get wifi to work.

The answer should be in the CleanRom thread but as far as I know if you flashed Ziggy's Kernel, you should reflash it and that should solve the problem.
Oops, just noticed this was already answered.
i flashed a kernel and its all good now

It shouldn't. You can't brick with unlock S-On. If you can get to HBOOT, you are fine. And there is no way to overwrite HBOOT yet.

And does it need to be said that this phone has been out for less than a month? Maybe we should give the devs a chance to work out the kinks before we start flashing.
I *really* miss WiFi tethering that I used to do with my DInc, but I am not about to root in the first two weeks of ownership before I see good, dependable feedback from the community.
I love this phone too much.

Actually you might be able to mess up the partitions or something, but HTC limits our ability to **** up the phone pretty well

Not trying to knock you but I don't see the point in waiting. Flashing a rom is fairly straightforward and even flashing kernels is for the most part. I had an Incredible prior to this and I am absolutely in love with my phone...that's why I read how to do things properly and learn from others mistakes.
Take the plunge! It's great on the otherside

There is a wifi tether app that doesn't require root. Koush is the dev. I tried it and it worked. That was the only thing I would have needed root for also. You should be able to find it if you search for it. If not, I'll find the link.
Edit: I found the link

There is only one superwipe for our phone. There is nothing to compare it to, and no need as it works fine. The link you posted has nothing to do with our device.

Ta da!
I've never understood super wipes. I just do it manually.
No need for a superwipe. Just Factory Reset and wipe System and you're ready to flash. That's never once given me a problem.
I use superwipe mod all the time after a manual wipe. Reason because TWRP does not have option to wipe/format the BOOT partition.

Install any aosp rom, example deck cm10 8-31-12. The Rom have force close issue with the phone process at the beginning. Now if you want to go back to latest sense Rom, without wiping boot img, you will continue to have the same phone process force close issue even if you're on sense Rom. It just happen to me a couple nights ago. So wiping boot partition is my way of completely getting rid of previous issue on the last install Rom.

I can flash between CM and Sense all I want without the error persisting, maybe you're doing something else wrong?

I was doing something wrong at the time, I forgot to flash the superwipe. When I first booted into meanrom 3.6 the same phone process force close still there. After realizing I forgot to flash superwipe, went back to recovery, wipe completely manually follow by superwipe then install meanrom 3.6, which booted fine without phone process error. Every time I flash a New Rom I always wipe everything at least twice.

Are you by any chance 1.15 S-ON?
Because not a week ago I left CM10 for Viper 4G because I needed the camera to work stably, and I did not receive the force close once.

Hmm, interesting because I have gone back and forth between CM10 and MeanRom. I have never had an issue. I love the speed and fluidity of CM10 but the Sense camera is just to good at this point.
I have then same issue...if I don't use sw I have issues bouncing between sense and cmx nands.. can't make calls on sense without it..with it I have no issues

See what I mean, I'm not the only with this issue. Superwipe work wonders for me too.

I think a lot of people got used to using these from the og evo. CWM was thought to have trouble wiping so most would wipe two or three times to make sure it didn't miss anything. I haven't heard of that being an issue for a long, long time though.
One thing that it may help with though is if the ROM doesn't format the system partition. I've spent hours trying to track down bugs only to realize leftover system files were wreaking havoc with the new ROM.

Hmm that's interesting, i remember i flashed tranquility rom and was working great! then tested cmx and at the same time tranquility was updated and that error was still present on the new tranquility rom, but i thought it was the rom so i flashed another sense rom but, this time i used superwipe after manually wiping all and no error anymore, since then i didnt use tranquility thinking it was the new update. now i always use superwipe.
time to go back to tranquility :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

My phone has these random reboots every day, and random crashes during the weirdest times. Like im sending a text and all of the sudden it just reboots . Im not even running a kernel . I receive double text messages and my battery drains a lot. It's just crazy . Last thing it does is that it likes to be on 3G when 3G doesnt work with me somehow. I have to wait till it shows that 4G or H symbol to get data. anyways I know it's not the ROM cause it happens in every ROM i try. Its not the battery cause I've only had it for like 4 months. What is it? i do a full wipe every time i install a ROM too and Yes I am S-off for those of you who are wondering. Are there any fixes to any of my problems? it really pisses me off.
I would full wipe, reinstall Rom and see what happens. Back- up first!
Ok well i say try the unofficial cm10 latest version if u r on it already re installing with 4ext recovery do a full wipe, cache and dalvik wipe and then flash cm10 and jellybean gapps onto it battery life is better then many others and if not satisfied lower the cpu top speed...

Oh well try that to fix it download stock and lock your phone through htc method and install it then re root and unlock and for a sense rom i would recommend nightmare sense 4.0 awesome sense rom but i only like the sense camera thats why i dont use it

It installs a stock RUU, but with some modifications (changes only the splash screen, recovery, and hboot), but the rest of it is 100% stock
Also, it's an easy way to install the RUU

No your problem was that you were probably never full wiping and that was causing the issues as your phone works perfectly fine after a full wipe (what the stock ruu does) and your battery can go bad after 4 months I went through 2 in 8 months

the super wipe script , I already use 4ext as the recovery
I recently attempted to root my HTC thunderbolt, and to do so I used the htc dev unlocker and then this "HTC Thunderbolt Tool'
rootzwiki.com/topic/27310-all-in-one-the-htc-thunderbolt-tool
After that I downloaded a rom and installed it through the 4ext recovery, it all install fine and I did do a factory/data reset but whenever I reboot after the rom install, I get the HTC white bootloader and then the screen become black with a back light to it.
I have tried a number of times to re-install the rom and have tried to use other roms but all of them seem to end the same way.
I have used:
BAMF FOREVER 1.1
BAMF MECHA ICS
AIRBORNE GOUI
Killsense 3.7.19
Lightning501
few more
My phone is a HTC Thunderbolt and when I attempted to root the phone it had a hboot version of 1.0.8 and had a stock version of ICS installed.
Sadly I have a phone without a working rom and I had forgot to make a backup so if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. Preferably I would like to keep the phone rooted but its not necessary.
Thank You
I'm a total xda-developor noob, so I hope I didn't mis a thread with a the solution all ready on it.
Make sure you do the factory reset, wipe dalvik and cache. Flash the ROM and reboot. Sounds like your missing a step somewhere 8)

I have tried clearing everything but still doesn't seem to work.
One thing I forgot to mention is sometimes if I wait long enough on the blank screen It boots me back into the 4ext recovery, don't know if that makes much of a difference.
The way I have been installing the rom
Load ROM onto the SD
Do a "wipe data/factory reset"
Go into install sd and choose the Rom which is in a .zip file
I think this is how its supposed to be done, but not sure.

Problem is you were coming from the ICS OTA.
The All In One Tool alone will not get you rooted after taking the OTA.
In order to fully root and s-off after having the OTA loaded, you would need to follow the steps outlined HERE

You can use whatever Recovery you want, Clockwork Mod is old and not really suggested to use, especially with newer roms.
