[Q] Revert to stock FROM ICS Rom? - HTC Rezound

Hey guys im running CleanRom ICS and my phone headjack dosen't work. I have to send it in to VZW and receive a new device.
Is there a tutorial or how can I completely revert to stock kernel, recovery, and stock GB?
I know there is an RUU for it but I am not sure if that will work.
If anyone could explain or if there is a tutorial to point me in the right direction for a novice, that would be great!
Thanks

The only way to do that from my understanding is RUU. That is what SBFing was to the droid. I do know that to RUU , you need to relock your phone. Did you back up the stock rom or the stock rooted rom ?
Either way, just go back to HTCDev and they explain how to relock your phone.
Download the RUU, after phone is locked I think you just have to plug in the phone to charge only and run the RUU exe. Must have HTC drivers installed obviously and possibly working adb , but since your rooted and running custom roms you probably are.
Once the RUU, is done you should be back to stock , unrooted !

so if i relock my phone it will automatically revert me back to GB?

No. But you need to relock it in order to run the RUU which will get you back to stock.

as far as i know, before locking the bootloader,
you might want to flash back to gb rom i think.

yeah...You need to be back to a GB kernel for sure. I thought the RUU is basically a ROM but not really sure how that works.

HTC ICS build released

Title should read LEAKED, sorry. I need to stop drinking in the afternoon.
Droid Life has a story about the official ICS for the Rezound being leaked. Story here:
http://www.droid-life.com/2012/03/1...wich-build-leaked-now-available-for-download/
I didn't see any other posts about it, but I apologize if this is out there already.
someone fire up a torrent, i'll seed... when i finally get it...
so if i relock my bootloader (currently unlocked with 1.7.5 cleanrom) then flash. i could re-unlocked and if needed i could go back to gingerbread if i wanted to correct?
also just curious if i did put this on would the super user install within amon ra work with this?
thanks and sorry if this has been answered somewhere i cant post in dev section because im under 10 post.

Basically what we did when we got the OTA update for GB. But yes it should work that way.

thank you.
But I am trying it right now. I am flashing back to stock GB as we speak and going to test it.
So let me see if I understand (I read a few articles about this) I don't have to be rooted to flash this? What I'm wondering is if I do flash this without root and unlocked bootloader, how would I go about reverting back to Gingerbread if I wanted too?

In my observations you would be able to flash it fine without root. But in order to go back to GB you would need to unlock your hboot. You'll be able to unlock it after you flash.

im no expert by any means but if i had to guess you would have to unlock your bootloader then flash a custom recovery then modify your main ver of your phone like what this thread says http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1526316
there is a easy flashable in recovery zip in i think post #4 of that fourm that might be easier than the tool in post #1 of the forum.
but you will probably want to wait for someone to answer who acually tested it or know for sure.

True. If he tried to go back to GB after flashing the ICS he would get the mainver error if he tried flashing a boot.img in hboot. If he used fastboot to flash the boot.img he would get no error.
So I'm running rooted stock with an unlocked bootloader at the moment. If I wanted to flash this, do I need to re-lock the bootloader?

How to return to complete stock?

This might be a dumb question but how do i return the rezound to complete 100% stock? thanks
If you never flashed ics ruu leak you can relock and use gb ruu.. if you did ics ruu, then best you can do is a gb Rom...ics not out yet...so gb is the ofical stock.

Flash that after flashing the rom but before flashing kernel.

If one changed the bootloader to be ra-vigor,
then how does one put back the stock bootloader?

Ok good, just go through reading on how to flash custom roms, kernels, & AmonRA 3.15.
Once you read up and I mean READ you shouldn't have any issues if you decide to go to custom roms. Should be able to fix anything with the device once you have went through at least 3 custom rom flashes. I suggest one of the ICS roms as your first flash as it's rather straightforward vs rolling back to gingerbread from the RUU.
I thought the phone would say that you're re-locked if you tried to re-lock it. If that's the case, is there a way to revert that back to a "locked" status?

Only way for that to happen is if we get S-off for the device. Sounds like a method is done testing for the Rezound so a matter of them releasing it .
This doesn't return you to the old radios if you updated them, does it?
I have had bluetooth issues since going to the leaked firmware and ICS. Flashed everything multiple times, etc, etc with no improvements.
If there is a way to get back old radios and GB, or if this IS the way, I'll be ecstatic (or ex-static pun). From what I read I thought you couldn't get back to original radios.
Is this the solution to returning to old firmware?
Only way is with s-off and running a gb ruu. Doing those 2 things will give you back the gb radio.
You can run gb Roms until then....requires a sd card patch, check the op of a Rom and it explains it there. Might give a little better performance until s off is released.

Back to GB from ICS Leak?

Hello all,
I'm a bit new with the Rezound, I was pretty experienced with the DInc2 and DInc before it, but I'm wondering something, I've looked around a bit, so apologies if I missed a thread, but I haven't found a straight up direct answer.
I have the latest ICS leak installed on my phone, I haven't rooted or s-off'd the phone just yet.... so what I need to know is:
1. Do I need to be S-OFF to flash the GB RUU so I can get the OTA when it releases?
OR
2. Will the phone still pick up the OTA with the leaked version of ICS since the leak is still an "official" build etc.
Hello, i'm also looking for same info, only i'm like a super noobie, I have an RUU, INSTALLED the HTC sync, which failed saying "waiting for boot loader" and that's all she wrote. So I think I need to do something to the boot loader, only what i'm not too sure.
Thanks.

Good question, not new to htc, I came from the tbolt, but if I run the latest ruu as a .img file through hboot, how would I get back to the stock gb rom that's currently on my rez, or will I be able to accept the ota while on the leak?
from my knowledge you will be able to ota to the release as long as it is a higher version that what the current leak is.
and if that fails you could s-off then gb ruu and then ota up.
I would like to go back to a nandroid backup of GB ROM that I had before I updated my firmware to the latest ICS leak. I can get it to restore & boot up, but I have no access to my sd card, so I have none of my apps. I feel like I've tried everything - nandroid helper, old firmware fix - but I don't know what to do next. Any suggestions?
In my trials to go back to a ginger bread RUU based firm ware, the process gets stuck at waiting on the boot loader, the phone is apparently not recognized. It is also not seen by the HTC sync.
the boot loader has been locked I don't know what to do next. It doesn't appear I can flash anything from fast boot menu.

Hello and thanks for your time looking into this.
I am on ICS Leak - and need to go back to GB - the thing is good but the battery is atrocious and it heats like anything.
So I went ahead and put the thing in boot loader and then ran the RUU after exiting the HTC sync. Now I am getting Error 140 - Boot loader version Error.
Ah the pain this phone is causing
I have one more question: Do I have to do this every time I want to go back to a previous backup (one that I did prior to updating to the ICS firmware)? If so, I'm wondering if it wouldn't just be easier to go back to GB firmware......
Ver Change for Error 140 - Android SDK CMD???
According to my research - I need to down the version using hex editor via ADB Shell. Dear God !
I have tried / installed SDK/ and Java Dev Kit. No Go - is there an app I can do this on the phone itself?
Thanks

Given I cannot downgrade back from HBoot 2.25.0000 is it not simpler to wait for the next RUU - whatever that is may over write this one?

You will need s-off to revert but as of hboot 2.25 it doesnt accept flashboot commands. Kinda stuck til a patched hboot gets released if you took the 5/7 leak.

Thanks for looking into this - so my option is to wait for a patched hboot 2.25 or wait for another RUU with an Hboot higher than 2.25.
I was wondering if I could install CWM recovery - and just flash myself an GB ROM. My issues with this ROM are overheating and battery chomping. I wonder if that will be helped with a GB ROM - supposedly more mature and efficient. If this can be done can you point me to a thread?

If you brick your phone, you can't use it. So, for the record, every single default ROM here makes your phone unusable?

That is not entirely true. You can relock your bootloader (ignore the security warning) and run the appropriate ruu exe from your computer to get back on stock. Including stock recovery and stock boot loader. You can then take the ota. Then you could use ramjets quick and easy guide( located in the general section) to getting unlocked again and even s-off if you wanted to. Just offering a another option.

First, it's ROM, not room. Second, only rom's in alpha stage have no camera. Pretty much 95% of the ICS roms out now have everything working, since ICS has been stock for a while now. And no, you won't brick your phone if you follow the directions on the rom thread. Most people on here flash different roms every few days and never brick their phones.

Again, DON'T do that. It will take you 5 times the amount of time to do that, and doing that method increased your chance of bricking three-fold. Just flash whatever rom you want, much easier and safer.

We're not your slaves, I'm sure you are fully capable of reading on your own. Go to the CDMA dev section and find a rom. However, with as little knowledge as it seems you have, I would suggest just flashing a stock rom.

Don't run the JB RUU it is known to cause problems. Relock your phone and take the OTA. It is the safest way.
