Problem solved. Thanks to everyone that responded. I really do appreciate it!!!!
What exactly did you flash? The Mainver error only relates to the kernel IIRC.
The only thing I tried to flash was the custom recovery after I accidentally ran the ota update with the custom recovery still on my phone. When I should've flashed back to the stock recovery before accepting the update. And now I can't get into custom recovery. When I try to reflash armon ra it won't take. I've lost root access even though I have superuser still on my phone.

how are you trying to reflash Amon Ra ? , what recovery do you boot into ? As long as your still unlocked you should be able to flash Amon Ra through Hboot it has nothing to do with root access at that point. Even odder that the OTA flashed through the custom recovery, thought it would error out and not take if it wasn't the stock recovery. Unless you ran Con's Stock rooted, but then you wouldn't have an issue with superuser or root access.
Should be able to flash stock recovery through fastboot relock and RUU then if you really are stuck. Otherwise , no reason you shouldn't be able to reflash Amon Ra and reroot through recovery.

I take it the phone can't boot up at all? Have your tried fastboot flashing the stock kernel?

I'm trying to flash it in hboot as ph98img. And when I go to recovery it seems to go to the stock recovery with the little phone and a green circle but shortly after it turns into the red triangle and phone symbol.
Try flashing the recovery in fastboot. Download the latest version of AmonRa here and extract the recovery-ra-vigor-3.13-gnm.img. Take that file and place it in the same file directory you place the tools to unlock your bootloader (needs to be in the same directory as fastboot.exe).
Put your phone into bootloader and connect to PC and flash the recovery-ra-vigor-3.13-gnm.img in fastboot using the command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-ra-vigor-3.13-gnm.img

It will boot and everything runs fine, I just can't get into custom recovery or install custom recovery. And my apps that need superuser permissions won't be allowed even though I still have superuser installed on the phone.

Nope. It just won't take. I can try it again and tell you exactly what it says as an error if that will help.

So, what the hell.
Ran the RUU, got back to stock, re-unlocked the bootloader.
Now I tried to run the One-click root, and every single time it fails to install busybox and superuser.
I really (really) don't want to be stuck with temp-root and I don't know what else I can do.
Help?
OneClick doesn't work any more after OTA.
If you don't already have it, flash Amon Ra. If you are going to use an ICS ROM you might want to use v3.10, otherwise use the new v3.14. Flash it in fastboot.
Then once it is flashed go to the devoloper menu of it and install su. You are then rooted.
follow the instructions in my sig

Tried to flash con47's AmonRa recovery and it gave me the error
"Main Version is older!
Update failed!"
Which RUU did you run? Did you download the OTA amonra version?

You can grab the latest version in the Amon Ra thread and flash it in fastboot. Fastboot doesn't care about mainver.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1339679
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
Make sure you type .img or you will get an error.
There's also a PHzip file of it in the thread. Personally I prefer using fastboot rather than using a PHzip file for everything cuz then you have to keep track of what they are, kernel, recovery, etc... and I don't think you can tell what version of whatever it is is in there.
I keep the latest Amon Ra in my adb/fastboot folder so it's always there if I need to flash it.
con also made Awesome Recovery Tool to automate mainver errors if you want to go that route. I've heard it's, well... Awesome!
I had someone give me a .zip to flash that gave me SU because Amon Ra's root wasn't sticking.
I just rooted my phone and installed Amon-ra recovery during the process. I even made a NAND back-up of the stock ROM and installed Superuser before rebooting. Now I am trying to flash my a ROM but cannot access recovery mod. I tried through the bootloader and it just showed me a picture of a phone with a red triangle and exclamation mark. What am I doing wrong and how can I access recovery mod to install my ROM? Also I was wondering if Clockwork Recovery was good with the rezound as i am more used to clockwork on my EVO 4G. Thanks.
You should be able to access recovery through the bootloader,if you're getting a triangle with exclamation mark that is a stock recovery.try flashing amon ra again,I think cmw still has issues most everyone uses amon ra here. If you flash a custom Rom most have reboot shortcuts built in

How do I flash Amon-ra? I followed the step-by-step process by Scott for the rooting and that was when I installed Amon-ra. I even used Amon-ra for the Nand back-up and to install Superuser. Do I have to go back to the ADB-thing to install Amon-ra again? I can follow step by step instructions but I am a very tecchie person. I know that once I flash a custom ROM, I will have the option to reboot in recovery from the 4-in-1 menu, but for now how do I flash amon-ra?
Place the recovery image in the same folder as your fastboot then use the command fastboot flash recovery "name of recovery image" minus the quotes which would be the amonra image.

Try this download this file http://www.mediafire.com/?l9dgzvvsdku7g3c and rename it recovery.
save it in the folder C:android the same folder you used to unlock the bootloader the one with fastboot, adb, and AdbWinApi.dll.
Install amon ra by entering HBOOT and go to fastboot USB
open cmd and type commands press enter after every command
cd..
cd..
cd android
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
let it do its thing then you should be able to get into your recovery.
I hope this helps
So stupid me managed to delete my recovery while in fastboot and now I can't get it back, to make matters worse my phone is in a bootloop because I installed a new ROM today that my phone appears to be rejecting. I can still get into fastboot but I can't seem to successfully install a new recovery, I'm S-OFF 1.49 if that matters.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
where recovery.img is inside the zip file of the recovery tool u used
or you can put your recovery tools's pg86img.zip (if you are cdma) on ur sd card and let hboot flsah it for you.

What do you mean by recovery tool, should i use the recovery.img from my last backup?
My phone's GSM, I'm guessing pf86img won't fix that?
That did the trick, thank you
I have a phone to return and would like to know how to remove Amon Ra Recovery I used the All-In-One Kit to install the recovery but i want to go back to stock and re-lock the bootloader ASAP can someone please help me I need to send this phone back. BTW what does the Stock option under kernel do would it return it back to stock recovery thanks.
flash the GB ruu and your phone will be stock but you will still have to relock the bootloader
Noob at Flashing RUU
Sorry for asking but I'm a noob at flashing but where do i get the stock RUU and how and where do i get it and flash it. Is there any links on how to do this. Would going to recovery and unzipping a file do the trick in my SD card. Not sure if i hit the spot on this but thanks for the help.

Stock Recovery
I don't think you need to run an ruu to get the stock recovery back. search and you should be able to find a download link to get the stock recovery and you can just flash that with adb/fastboot.

For stock recovery and latest ruu firmware: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/
Once you download, copy to root of micro sdcard, and rename to PH98IMG.zip
Then boot into bootloader, and it should detect it and flash automatically. note it has to flash twice. You must say yes, It will look like it rest and restarted, but it's normal.
Don't forget to delete or rename it after your done or

If you are on a stock ROM, all you have to do to replace amon ra is to do "fastboot flash recovery [stock recovery filename].img "
Then if you want to run amon ra again, just do "fastboot boot recovery [amon ra recovery].img"
I finished unlocking my bootloader with the Hasoon 2000 HTC one tool kit and I flash the cwm recovery. I started to flash the elementalX kernals ,my first kernel. I tried to got back into recovery but I couldn't access it. I believe it is because I forgot to perm root my HTC One. I was to flash the supersu with hasoon 2000 before I begin flashing kernals and roms but I didn't... How can I fix this problem so I can access recovery

What recovery did you flash initially? I did CWM touch and I had the same problem. Use the toolkit and reflash recovery, but flash stock CWM this time. After you flash try again. It should work.
